I was trying to clean up my desktop, and inadvertently switched all my icons on my desktop. When I click on file a, file b opens and so on, regardless of the extension type. Is there any way to fix this?

I use
Chronosync (http://www.econtechnologies.com/pages/cs/chrono_overview.html)
and
Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/)
Both work very well. The former I use for manual, one-way synchroniziation of (nearly) entire systems. The latter for automatic syncing of very active directories through local and shared online storage.

Are you sure your friend didn't jailbreak it?
If so, save yourself a lot of time and trouble - throw it in the trash. -

When my Gen 6 nano fades to black the unit shuts off completely and the music stops. Is there any way to fix this?
Make sure the headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the headphone's plug can still be seen.
You posted this in the iPod Touch forum, when you should have posted this in the iPod Nano forum.

My father has owned his iphone for almost exactly 9 months. The phone was purchased in the US when he was on holiday. We live in Barbados, but the phone should still be under warranty. (please correct me if I'm wrong). He says the phone will not boot, it is inconsistent with showing how much battery life it has and it keeps looping because it's always trying to reboot. He treats his electronics very well and the phone is in perfect condition. Is there any way that this can be fixed without him losing all the information on the phone? Or can he get a replacement phone (due to the warranty issue)?
Have you tried any basic troubleshooting
restart
reset
Restore

I could not turn up the sound (volume) on my iPad 2 using the volume button on the side. This happens after I have reduced the volume to minimum using the same volume button. The volume indicator does not move up at all. Note: it was not on mute, so the issue seems to be the button.
Try this and see if it works.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
When I launch Firefox it uses the phone UI not the tablet UI
There is a bug in Firefox 9 that causes it to use the non-tablet UI on tablets running Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). This is fixed in Firefox 10: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708772
You can download a Firefox 10 pre-release version from the [https://market.android.com/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox_beta beta channel] today. The final version will be published to the release channel next week. -
My computer has stopped recieving charge. The charger is in great condition, but it will not register, nor charge my computer. I do not know if its my mac or the charger. Is there any way to fix this?
Do you have another charger to test with?
It is very possible that somehow the wire might have gotten bent without your knowledge and that is why it is not working.
If you have an Apple store near you, you might want to set up a genius appointment so that they can test it for you. -
Concerning: VGA monitors using an Aluminum Powerbook G4 PowerPC 2004 15"-screen 1.5Ghz
The DVI (converted to VGA) video output stopped working on this computer after 9 years of service. This raises question 1:
Is there any way of fixing this? I've tried the usual: triple checked all vga cables & devices through trial & error. Bought a new DVI-VGA adapter. Reset PRAM, PMU, etc. Nothing works. Something is probably damaged, because my KVM switch was not working unless I hot-reseated the vga cable into it, leading to this DVI port, and that is pretty rough stuff.
Question 2 (related):
This dovetails into this: Can I drive a VGA monitor with the s-video output port on this computer. It would take an s-video (male)-to-15-pin-VGA adapter. Has anyone does this? So far, I haven't even found the adapter mentioned anywhere.
Thanks for reading this.
el7Thanks for the useful feedback, Knucklesmac. I agree. I must have blown something on the logic board -- because I had a faulty old KVM switch that would not switch between computers without some nasty hot-plugging/unplugging the VGA video cables. (wince!). It's like when Dizzy Dean ruined his arm because a line drive hit him in the foot and he readjusted his mechanics around the injury. I take the blame because this has been a great computer, and does not deserve any blame.
If it will help anyone else reading this thread, C2G (née Cables to Go) has some interesting ideas for still getting external video out of this computer:
-USB-to-VGA
http://www.cablestogo.com/product/30545
-Convert s-video or composite video signals to high resolution VGA
http://www.cablestogo.com/product/40971
The price range is $75-$85, which doesn't make horse sense to me for such an old computer -- which has a lot of life in it anyway, because its own 15" monitor is not chopped liver.

I am trying to update an ipod version 2.2 with itunes but I keep getting an error (-1). Is this an hardware issue according to Apple and if so is there any way to fix this.?
Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
If you disabled yuor computer's security software then that indicates a hardware problem,
I would say it is not workth fixint your old. likely a 1G. iPOd. -

Lauren xDid you choose the right router to connect to in settings, wifi? Is there a password you need to enter (or did you already try)? Just because there's a signal doesn't mean it's connected to the router. I'm not sure what you mean by "service".

i tried installing ios 6 on my new ipad but when i try to change it to ios 6 it says that the firmware file is not compatile. Is there any way to fix this problem?
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Only developers have legal access to iOS 6 right now, if you really, really wanted it you could sign on as a developer for $99.

When trying to authorize my daughtes ipod classic to a new laptop it pops up and asks for apple id but the email is not one of ours and it will not let me change it is there any way to fix this problem Thanks in advance
To whom does the email address belong to? Are you sure it wasn't an email address used in the past or perhaps one that had belonged to a friend of hers?
Either way, if the music on her iPod was purchased under an account not belonging to her or you, there is much you can do. Sorry.
