IDevice icons not disappearing when removed in iTunes

Lately I've been noticing that my devices are still registering as being plugged in, even after removing them.
Their icons never disappear after removing devices (iPhone, iPad, Apple TV 1st gen). I can click the eject button and the icon disappears, but thats just a workaround.
Any ideas?

If you have WiFi sync enabled for your iDevices, it's normal for them to remain in the iTunes devices list.

If iTunes sees the iPod, try a manual install, as pointed out on link below.

Dock icons will not disappear when I drag them to desktop or trash

On my MacBook Pro, when I drag an icon from the dock to the desktop or to trash, it bounces back to where it was on the dock. I tried to move Applescript Editor, AppleWorks 6, Keychain Access, Activity Monitor, Quick Time Player and several more icons and they all did the same. Each icon that will not disappear, has a blue dot reflection underneath it.
I moved one of the icons without a blue reflection to the desk top and it did go up in smoke, but as soon as i replaced that icon from finder back to the dock, it also had a blue reflection under it and I could not make it disappear again.
If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it. Thank you so much,
Arudi

You're only supposed to drag icons out of the Dock if you want to remove them from it; running applications won't disappear immediately but may do so when quit.
If you're trying to put icons on the desktop, find the items in the Finder and drag them there with the Option and Command keys held down.

Icons in finder do not disappear when deleted

This is kind of hard to describe, but my finder's been acting really strange lately. Everytime i delete a file or folder in the finder the icon will not disappear completely, leaving some of the name of the file in the finder. This is really annoying, and it makes it look like the file is still there, even though it's been deleted.
If I just click one time on any of the icons, only the first line of the file's name will be selected, which makes it hard to read the file's name. Ive been searching the forums for an answer to this issue, but I still havent found anything.
Any ideas? thanks in advance

No so fast given how extreme that sort of action is. Try starting in "Safe mode" by restarting and holding down the Shift key…

You never know, theis behaviour might be caused by a system addition.

Contact Form - initial text does not disappear when filling in

Hi! I asked some friends to test my site on various devices, and a couple said that when filling in the contact form, the initial text that's there did not disappear like it should, so when they typed their name for example, it was written over top of the text that says "Your name". This happened on the Kindle Fire HD in both the mobile and full site, from the Galaxy S3 in full site mode, and someone else using Android. Here's the link to my contact form:

Hi;
In the PDF the help text appears when you mouse over the field for 1-2 seconds, there isn't a "?" icon in the PDF.
Thanks,

Preview icon not showing when in thumbnail. (Sketchu

Hello,
I recently updated my MBP to Yosemite and installed sketchup on it.
The preview icon of my sketchup files are not showing when in thumbnail. But as i increase the size of the icon from thumbnail in viewoption i.e from 64px x 64px to 124px x 124px it shows. So my icon is shown as blank without any app logo. Also when i change my view from thumbnail to coverflow or something it shows. Otherthan thumbnail everything works.
So where is the error in it?
Please help...
Thanks
Amar

Try the standard fixes:
- Rest. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. - Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

AMDS will not install when I download itunes on vista

I have been trying to install itunes for months, my old ipod worked well with 10.4 but then failed to recognise the device when it needed updating. After calling Apple their helpline advised me to uninstall and reinstall itunes and ever since then ( January) I have been unsuccessful - AMDS just does not download as part of itunes set up and I cannot download as a separate entity.
I have followed ALL the troubleshooting guides to restart it but cannot do this as the programme is just not there!
After reinstalling itunes for the billionth time I now get this error message -
AMD failed to start- verify you have sufficient privileges to start the system services.
I have downloaded itunes as user and administrator with no luck - HELP!!!!!
Thanks

First uninstall your copy of Itunes--http://www.tekrevue.com/tip/uninstall-itunes/ (make sure you empty crash) Then you go to the applications website and reinstall it. Dont worry about losing any of your music because thats in a separate folder. Thats it---it works.

Changes made on my iPad do not appear when plugged into iTunes; missing album art on iPad.

If I make changes to the music on my iPad--i.e. delete songs/albums, add ratings, add a song to a playlist--when I plug my iPad in to view the contents in iTunes, none of these changes have been saved. The deleted music reappears, the ratings do not show up, and the new songs are not in the playlist.
Additionally, when I have my iPad plugged in to my Mac, all of my album art shows in iTunes. However, if I look at the music on my iPad by albums, much of my album art is missing.
Any suggestions?

Visionplace, i have the issue where my ipad2 changes/edits to my current playlists are NOT synced up with my itunes 11 on my computer (Windows 7). I have icloud and Itunes Match is turned on. My settings are to auto-sync and i have ALL my music set to be synced, not just select playlists. (Note I have not tested whether new playlists will appear because i usually just edit my existing ones).
So whenever i make playlist changes on my ipad2 (e.g., add or delete songs), i see the changes correctly on my iphone 4, and my Apple TV within 15 minutes without taking any steps, but they do NOT appear on my itunes 11 on my computer (Windows 7). The only way i have found to get the ipad2 playlist edits onto my itunes on my computer is to sync my iphone4 up with the computer. (My ipad changes are already on the iphone 4 automatically). My computer's itunes 11 CAN see the playlist edits i have made on the iphone4 (immediately), but not the ipad. It *****, but it works for me.
For new music purchases (from itunes store) on my ipad2, the only way i can see them on my itunes 11 on the computer is to go to the store, and download them again. Otherwise, they will not appear.
Note - in another forum when i was researching this ipad sync issue, someone had stated that the ipad/computer sync is one way. (I.e., from computer-to-ipad only). If true, that would explain why the ipad edits and new music purchases dont show up in my computer itunes. However, the iphone sync must be two ways.

When I download itunes 10.4 and quicktime the icons appear on my desktop but once I double click on the icon nothing happens, When I download itunes 10.4 and quicktime the icons appear on my desktop but once I double click on the icon nothing happens

When I install itunes on my home pc everything goes thru fine I see the icons on my desk top but once I double click on the itunes icon nothing happens
I downloaded itunes 10.4 and I'm using window 7 - 64 bit as my OS.

Many thanks.
The iTunes and QuickTime symptoms are consistent with another application (other than QuickTime itself) having dropped old Quicktime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Book icon not opening when clicked

I have an odd problem here.
In my Contents tab on the left side, I have eight Book icons
that, when clicked, open to reveal the Help topics inside them-
just like any normal RoboHelp project would work. However, the very
last Book icon in the list does not open when clicked. I checked
the original file and all of the help topics are under the Book
like they should be. When I compile the file and do a View Primary
Layout, this last Book icon opens correctly. The problem only
occurs once the project is built into the software I'm doing the
Help for. When I move the Book icon up in the list (so it's not the
last one anymore) it works correctly. But then the Book icon that
becomes the last icon doesn't open when clicked. So whichever Book
icon is last in the list doesn't open when clicked. Anyone have any
clue what would cause this? Thanks alot.

Hi Scott45 and welcome to the RH community.
Have you tried deleting the book and adding it again? Also
you can open the project's .HHC file in Notepad (or something
similar) and check that the relevant TOC entry is displayed
correctly there.

IPod will not update when plugged in iTunes.

My iPod when plugged into iTunes, it says updating but after about 3 seconds it says that it couldn't update because the Compaq_Owner's Playlist had been deleted or no longer exist. I am not really sure what to do. My iPod is completely empty. If anyone could help me out i'd be greatly appreciative. I really need it before Wednesday of next week because I have a ten hours drive and we all know how radid stations can be.

Personalise value icon not available when query executed from portal

Hi
The personalise value icon is not available when the query is executed from the portal.
Is this the norm or is there anything i must change?
Regards
Shalini

Since you have not given us much information to go on, I will start with the basics...
Have you activated the Personalization DSOs (0PERS_WTE, 0PERS_BOD & 0PERS_VAR)?
If not, you will need to do so in tcode SPRO (SAP Reference IMG --> SAP NetWeaver --> Business Intelligence --> Settings for Reporting and Analysis --> General Settings for Reporting and Analysis --> Activate Personalization in BEx)
Are you running a BW 3.5 query or a BI 7.0 query?
If BI 7.0, the way to set personalization values has changed. You have to open the personalization section of the variables refresh screen by clicking on "Show Personalization Values" at the top of the screen, then move the desired variables down to that section.
Hope some of this helps...

Videos downloaded to Iphone disappear when deleted from Itunes, why???

I am a bit annoyed. I have a number of entertaining short videos on my computer that I placed in ITunes so I could load them on to my Iphone. I then disconnected my Iphone from my computer and then deleted the videos from Itunes---they are already located elsewhere so why save them in two places??? When I later opened my Iphone to share one of them with a friend I discovered it, and the others, where no longer there. This is intrusive. Apple is interfering with how I use my computer and my Iphone. I paid for them, they belong to ME, NOT Apple.
Is there a way to change this?

Mark652,
Apple does not monitor your iPhone or iTunes library in that way at all. Information is only synced when the iPhone and computer are physically connected via the USB cable.
Was the iPhone in the dock or connected with the USB cable in between the time you put the movies on the iPhone?
Did you attempt to play the movies on the iPhone immediately after they were copied over? The movies might not have been copied over. iTunes would not copy the movies unless they were in a format supported by the iPhone. The first time a movie can't be copied to the iPhone or an iPod you will get a message, and have the option to never show that error again.
This page discusses the video formats supported by iTunes:
http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
To quote, "Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
Many clips found on the internet and elswhere are encoded using multiplexing or muxing, and are not supported in iTunes, iPhone, iPod, or iMovie, but may playback via Quicktime.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.
