  • Recommended product for scratch removal?

    I have the black 60GB 5th Gen Ipod. I have been using it for years, but by now my screen has become scuffed and scratched. I want to purchase a product to remove the scratches, and then a film or cover to protect it (the previous cover I had is what left the scratches over time), but I want to know what everyone recommends as the best products? Any suggestions?

    Hey there,
    There are numerous products available for cleaning your iPod, but I have had great luck with PodShop iDrops. It is a cheap product, but requires a bit of work to remove scratches. Worth the effort in the end though. Here is a link to more information on it from amazon. I am not sure with protective cases though because I have never really had any luck any. For now, I just place a piece of the wider packaging tape over the front. It works great and keeps my iPod looking brand new. Hope this helps.

  • Products for scratch removal

    Hi there
    I've had my 5th gen iPod for about a month and it's covered in scratches...I've had it in the default case and I now use iPod socks, and neither seem to have helped...I have small scratches on the front and larger ones on the metal back.
    I've searched previous discussions on this, and what I'm looking for is a product that I can buy in the UK, and from shops(in Scotland if possible). I do not shop online for anything other than downloadable products.
    I've also bought screen protectors (little sheets of plastic to cover your screen). I keep getting bubbles of air trapped under them...are they a waste of money or am I using them wrong?
    Thank you

    Socks and cases won't stop surface scratches, you really need a hard case like iSkin to keep anything from touching the screen.

    Well, I think you need to start trusting some of the many online retailers, but you have your right to not do that... there is always telesales!

    Yes you are using them incorrectly. Start from the middle and move outwards, or start from an entire side and move across, you can get a flat, flush product if you use a credit card to push down the plastic
    Thank you
    go to ifixit.com and you can get a new screen bezel for about $25. Otherwise, most of your scratch removers are gimmicky, and only remove the lightest of surface scratches.
    Check out some auto products and polish too, they help.

  • Don't install New Ice Cream Sandwich update for Droids !!!! DON'T DO IT !!!!

    Don't install New Ice Cream Sandwich update for Droids dated October 2012 !!!! DON'T DO IT !!!!  I had a perfectly GREAT Droid Bionic untill I installed the NEW IC Sandwich operating Sys Verizon sent me when I turned the phone on 3 days ago.
    Now Texting is a nightmare w/ every letter needing to be corrected do to tiny unforgiving keyboard.
    Vm doesn't notify me when a call is missed.
    Map is 3 miles off fr present location.
    Apps & Icons on main screen randomly disapear & re-apear hrs later.
    Icons are always in a different spot when ever phone is turned on.
    Now I have to hit multiple buttons to answer phone. Before only had to hit one key.
    No responce when touching apps such as browser or gallery
    settings menu is totally confusing - old menu was clear and simple.
    first time I used Alarm function I couldn't turn off alarm - had to pwr down phone.
    Verizon refuses to reinstall old software that was "PROBLEM FREE".
    Clearly this new software wasn't debuged B4 they released it.
    Going to Apple!

  • Scratch removal: Does Ps CS6 have a tool for that?  Or are there plugins?

    Scanning old slides often shows large scratches and specks.  How can they be removed?
    I use Photoshop CS6, does it contain tools for that?
    Or are there plugins?
    What I'm looking for is a Scratch Removal tool like I find in Silverfast 8SE (have one bundled with my Canoscan 9000F scanner) called SDR (I don't mean the iSDR which used the sanner's ínfrared).
    It automaticllay searches out scratches, marks them in red, lets you adjust how strongly it hunts for them, sizes etc.
    Then when you like it, click to remove them.
    Very useful!
    Two problems: it only works in conjunction with scanning, can't open an existing file.
    And it only handles 8bit color depth.
    I suppose full versions of Silverfast won't have these limitations, but that would mean quite an expense.
    Since I have invested in Ps CS6 I'd want to keep to that.
    Maybe I'm overlooking what's already in Ps?  Or in available plugins?
    Please help,
    Sverker

    If you have huge numbers of them, Filter - Noise - Dust & Scratches right in Photoshop.  If they're always lighter than the surroundings (e.g., a negative scan that's been inverted), you can limit the effect with Edit - Fade - Darken afterward.
    Or if you're willing to do some hand work, and ensure inadvertent things won't be changed, you can select  the Spot Healing Brush Tool, set it to Content Aware mode and just dab the spots.  Photoshop is pretty good at making up fill data.

  • Scratch Remover? Trade-in program for 60GB to 80GB before 30 days?

    I was wondering if using using a scratch remover on my black ipod video will void my warranty....do they even work?
    Also, I've only had my ipod since the first of september...trade-in program?
    And, can I clear out itunes but keep all the stuff in my ipod? My ipod holds like 6 times the memory of my ibook....
    Much obliged

        Hi there DSHanson,
    This certainly is something that would be enticing to stay for sure. The promotion did expire on the 15th of October, so I am unsure why a representative of ours would offer the promotion to be "extended". I would like to take a closer look into this. I am going to send you a Private Message and see if I am able to find that chat. Keep your eyes peeled for that! Thanks.

  • IClear Screen Protector/ Scratch remover.

    Hello there,
    I was wondering if anybody new if the iClear screen protector actually removes scratches on the iPod nano/video body?
    If not, could anybody reccomend a scratch remover of some type?
    Thanks.

    I doubt any screen protector actually removes scratches from the nano.
    But to remove scratches you can use Brasso, Ice Cream, Toothpaste (not reccomended), Displex, and many more. Really if you're not sure which one to use you should check the internet for success stories. There was a really good success story with Brasso on the internet, which is good because it is only $4.

  • IPod Scratch Removal Success Story

    in trying to pry the near impossible-to-remove Speck See-Thru case from my two-day old iPod with Video, having to use force and knowing the risk of potential scratching, i was horrified when, "POP," the case came off, only to leave behind a large, 1.5" gouge right across the upper right corner of the screen on.
    my brand new iPod with Video. scratched. my heart sank.
    so, i began the research into scratch removal products. most of the stuff i found online (iCleaner, iDrops, Ice Creme, etc) all claimed to do the job, but they were both expensive and i would have to wait. i wanted something quicker.
    so, i ended up going to an auto parts retailer and purchasing a bottle of Mother's California Gold Scratch Remover, the same product used to remove scratches from cars, cars with clearcoating, fiberglass cars, and fiberglass boats. it cost under $5 (USD).
    i also bought a $5 (USD) natural chamoise ("shammy") cloth. it's super-soft and again, used on a variety of cars, boats, etc.
    within twenty minutes of set-up, actual application/buffing of the iPod, and cleanup, the gouge that scarred the iPod was completely gone. GONE.
    leftover were some very, very faint swirl marks from using pressure when buffing. from everything i've read, this was totally common and normal, since the iPod's front is clear acrylic.
    for me, it was a pricesless trade-off to have some barely noticable swirl marks versus the giant gouge on the screen.
    today, i purchased a $3 (USD) metal polishing product at my local Lowe's hardware, called Brasso, which is raved about online as the do-it-all iPod cleaner. i will use this to shine-out the remaining swirls.
    overall, very happy with the choice i made, and thought i'd share to possibly benefit someone else in the future. i hope this post was helpful!
    good luck.

    sounds like a good trick! however, for the gouge i mentioned above, liquid soap didn't cut it for me. i tried several "home remedies" before reaching for the big guns. another trick i'd heard about (and yes, even tried) was Colgate's Whitening toothpaste. some folks will swear by it. all it did for my iPod was make it smell minty for a spell. hehe
    thx for the tip, tho. i think all efforts are valuable.
    i should add also, that i just ordered the Power Support Crystal film skins and the Agent 18 VideoShield case to protect the iPod in the future. i've used the ClickShield for my iPod Photo and it was the best investment.
    peace!

  • CHEAP SCRATCH REMOVER FOUND!!!

    I have a 20GB iPod photo and it got some mucky scratches from this case i had. I used something called Speedy White and removed them INSTANTLY!!! It does not remove the finish on your iPod it is a spray like Windex. It has a wesite but I'm sure you can find it at your local hardware store or supermarket. It is very inexpensive so you don't need to spend alot of money on specialty cleaners.

    (Use the one that looks like a bottle of windex spray)
    Hope this helps!!!

    Jake
    there are sooooo many different ones out there
    I used Displex (available on ebay) and it did a great job
    some people use Novus and like it
    some use RadTech's Ice Cream (readtech.com)
    some use Brasso
    etc, etc.

  • Firefox sync not working with android 4.0 (ice cream sandwich)

    Okay i'll try to explain this as best as i can. Over the weekend i installed the new android OS 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich...before hand firefox sync (from my desktop to my cell phone) was working fine. I could see all of my bookmarks and all of my history. However, once i installed the new OS i was unable to see any of my information! When i go into the sync and accounts page on my android i see my FF sync account and i have told it to sync a number of times...but it still doesn't work! Also, on the main page of the FF app on my android there is no account information at the bottom on the page like there was pre 4.0 install. Is there anything i can do to fix the problem? Or will i have to re-add the account when I get back home from being out of town?

    Hard to say. Most of my experience has been with the Thunderbolt and I don't know anything about the Stratosphere. Part of it will probably depend on the manufacturer, Verizon and what phone you have. Some manufacturers get updates out faster than others. Then Verizon may hold on to it until they test it, which may not matter much judging by the Thunderbolt releases. And also, some phones will get it before others. Which phones come before others may not make sense to anyone except the manufacturer and Verizon and maybe not them. Sometimes it seems more like a lottery. I'm only guessing that the newer, dual core phones will probably get it first since I think ICS is suppose to run better on them. I could be wrong, and often am, but I'm not expecting the Bolt to get it, but I've retired mine anyway.
    Verizon will usually put out a notice when it's planning on releasing an upgrade for your phone and if you follow any Android forums, most of them will post it also, so it's not usually a secret. . The last updates the Bolt got were pushed to us if we didn't download it first. The only way not to get it seemed to be if you happened to be watching when it started so you could stop it, but since you have to sleep sometime, eventually you'd get it whether you wanted it or not. Not sure if that will be the case with ICS though.
    They might surprise us and get it out this month, or as AZSALUKI said, 2-3 months. You can hope for sooner, but expecting later will decrease your stress levels.

  • Mac mini mini cooper ice cream truck-upgrade to iphone?

    have a mac mini PPC g4 installed in a mini cooper ice cream truck.
    the lcd touchscreen and carnetix power supply kinda suck.
    I'm using the touchscreen as a point of sale inventory system to keep track of stock/slaes, but screen is not bright enough to overcome daylight readability.
    I'm thinking of swapping out the 7" monitor with a iphone or ipod touch with some sort of point of sale application. I'd like to then just use the mac mini as an external drive for the iphone. is that too crazy? have i finally gone over the edge in modifications? is there such an application available?

    In addition to glare films, you might also try a monitor hood, a la these:
    http://www.photodon.com/p/105.html
    I doubt that you'll find one premade for a 7" monitor, but it wouldn't be hard to construct and mount one with some cardboard and velcro/double-sided tape.
    The only actual point-of-sale app I can find in the App Store is Ring It Up:
    http://www.pingysoft.com/site/RingItUp.html
    Here's the URL to it in the iTunes Store: RingItUp.
    There's also a Lite version, though I don't know what the differences are.

  • Dust & scratch removal

    Is there a function in A3 for dust & scratch removal - NOT doing it manually, but over the entire photo or selected area? Or, is there a plug-in available, such as the dust removal one for Photoshop?

    The problem with the PSE user interface is that it is a high-end painting/publishing/retouching tool (PS CS) with a complex menu & dialog box structure, upon which:
    * features have been removed wholesale (curves, scripting, etc.)
    * features have been removed partially (color management, etc.)
    * features have been added (Variations, Process Multiple Files) resulting in more menus, more modes
    * a completely independent application has been unceremoniously glued on (Organizer)
    It is, in a word, a MESS.
    As I've said before, the technology is great but the user interface is a disaster.
    Honestly, I would leave PSE alone and sell it as a "painting" application. Then I'd come out with a new product designed for photographers/snapshooters. I would:
    1. take a 'light' version of Apple's Aperture
    2. add selections/masking [the nondestructive, resizable, Ansel Adams Zone-based selections/masks in LightCraft's LightZone are very cool!)
    3. add simple layers (maybe even the tool-specific layers as in LightZone)
    4. and then do usability testing. You know, clicking on text shouldn't just select the layer, it should allow you to edit the text. Jeez, how difficult is that for a consumer program?

  • What's a Great DVD Scratch Remover

    Hi. Although I'm on Lion. I'd like to restore my OEM Snow Leopard Installer disk (Disk 1). It won't read anymore. I've tried things like toothpaste which usually works and a metal polisher but those didn't work for this dual layer.
    What's a good brand of scratch remover? How do I restore it? It's good if I get to restore it so that when it's resold later (for an upgrade), everything's original and complete. I'll do my best to find it in the stores here.
    Thank you in advance.
    God bless.

    Assuming these are commercial dvd/cd's and not your own for private burning, I recommend Novus Plastic Polishes.
    Google "Novus Plastic Polishes for cd".
    I haven't had to try on dvd/cd's as yet but I have an acrylic desktop surface and use it on minor scratches on that and the stuff actually works.
