If you're having problems with your shuffle freezing in XP

Someone on the forums linked to podtools. That's all you need. When you follow the directions, it blocks itunes from loading when you plug in your shuffle, and allows you to check the "disk use" box, as so many people have told you to do. This was impossible for me to do under itunes, as my shuffle would dissapear before I could check the box. Now that I have that checked, I can use itunes normally.

So...you're having problems with your Fascinate....

Funny, I haven't been over to these forums in awhile and now I come back--and see all manners of problems, issues, gripes, etc. Wasn't *anything* like this when I first got my Fascinate.
Here's what I think: I don't beleive Verizon understood what they were getting into with develping a ROM for (sort-of) open-source smartphone platform like Android. They clearly were really struggling to catch up with the core development from early on. Pity, because I always felt the Fascinate had stellar hardware, and Verizon service in my (admittedly more remote) neck of the woods has always been very good.
Judging by the number of "I'm having an issue" and "this fon sux" posts, it seems to me more recent updates seem to have only added to the misery. So what to do?
Here's the interesting thing: I haven't had a single problem with my phone that I haven't been able to fix. Even for a product that (would seem to be) at end-of-life, I'm still planning on buying a new case and extended battery for it. I use it with a Bluetooth keyboard for taking notes in meetings, keep current on all my e-mails, collaborate with various teams with Google Docs, and yes, answer phone calls. My Fascinate currently runs blazing fast, no lag at all (except when the 3g in my area is weak), and is easy on the eyes.
But I've had to work a little for all this functionality.
My humble opinion? If you're wanting bleeding-edge firmware, the official updates are only going to get you so far. Development on these updates will likely even slow down further as newer phones are rolled out. Just basic economies of scale--Verizon's not going to be able to maintain Development efforts on increasingly older hardware--especially with new models coming out all the time.
***WARNING: The following statement will likely result in me dodging black helicopters on my way back home!*** ((Sorry Mods, couldn't resist. ))
If you're like me, you still have your Fascinate, and really liked the phone to start with--but quickly tired of the slow ROM development. If you have an inkling of technical saavy (or have a geeky friend), and you have awhile left before an upgrade, here's what I suggest: Head on over to the XDA Developers website, do some research, and weigh the risks of implementing some of the great work that community is doing. Keep in mind playing with custom ROMS will void your warranty and yes, you *can* brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing....
....but I've actually been far happier with my phone since I've taken the plunge.

"samsung's bluetooth stack doesn't support HID and CM7 is the only ROM out there that redoes everything from scratch ENOUGH in order to not use the manufacturer's bluetooth stack)..."
Now it all makes sense....I tried out what seems like a gazillion ROMs before I realized CM7-based ROMs were the only ones that can support my keyboard.

Have you been having problems with ipod nano 3rd gen?

Have you been having problems with your ipod nano 3rd gen? got a windows xp computer? is your pc not recognizing it? I think i may have the solution. After 2 2 hour calls to apple tech support they were stumped. we reset it again and again, reinstalled itunes again and again. and they had no solution for me. I went to my device managerand there was a device called (apple Ipod USB driver) with a yellow exclamation point. I tried updating driver but to no avail. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing. But then I had an epiphany. I went to the device manager right clicked the apple ipod usb device clicked properties then update driver. Hardware wizard went up and I chose not to install automatically. and i chose to install driver manually. and then I installed a generic usb mass storage driver in its place and presto!!! it worked! it was instantly recognized by itunes and it took me to the registration page. I did what the apple support team wasn't able to do for 4 hours. I wonder if they're accepting applications... Anyway i hope this helps anyone out there cause i know i went through a lot of stress.

the driver is just a regular usb mass storage driver. it's in your computer. it's just a matter of installing it manually where it saya to include the location of the driver click browse and choose c:\windows\system32

I'm Having problems with the video freezing and the sound carrying on since I up graded my iPad to ios8 BBC IPLAYER

I Am having problems with the video freezing and the sound carrying on whilst watching BBC IPLAYER ITV PLAYER until I reboot video and the problem acures again

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

Is anyone else having problems with there phone freezing after the 8.0 update?

iis anyone else having problems with there phone freezing after the 8.0 update??

Hello Chefboyharley,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the phone is unresponsive. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

If you're having problems with USB ports, read on...

i'm reading that alot of people on here are having problems with their front (or top) usb on their cases not working with their k7n2 boards. i have come across the correct solution to this problem in one of the posts (after having solved the problem on my own), however noone has posted the solution by itself on this forum so everyone can easily see it.
The trick is to make sure that pin 10 (at least on a K7n2 delta-L), the pin labeled USBOC (USB Open Connection), is wired to NOTHING. If the connector to your front usb ports is fused into one giant connector and it HAS a wire that will connect to this pin (labeled GND2 or Shield or something), CUT THAT WIRE. Pin 10 on JUSB2 (at least on a K7n2 delta-L) must be OPEN. If this pin IS connected to something (even if it is only GND), the motherboard will think something is connected to this usb port and you will get many unknown devices listed in your windows device manager and the rest of your usb ports may or may not work.
As a general rule of thumb, if a pin on a motherboard is labeled OC for "Open Connection" and you wire something to it, you're asking for trouble.
If you cannot understand this you should not be attempting to wire a motherboard in the first place.
Here is a picture to go along with this discussion. If you cannot see this picture, I am sorry for it has probably been removed from the place I posted it online as I cannot attach pictures physically to this post. If someone here has a way to permanently host this picture and post it to this thread permanently, that would be wonderful.
In summary: all usb ports/headers have only four pins associated with it (VCC, USB+, USB-, GND). If the connector (whether it's one big connector or individual sockets) to your front/top usb port has 5 sockets, don't connect the 5th socket to anything. That goes for any case/motherboard combination. This is what i'm talking about above. I have no idea why motherboard and case manufacturers have a 5th pin involved in any way on either the pin or socket side. It is not used for usb.
EDIT: I just noticed this has already been discussed in the trouble shooting guide in the above sticky post. oh well, now we have a pretty picture to go along with it (i hope).

:-D)Hello guys,
as promised I come back here to give the results of my tests... and I have to say that you saved my day (even if I had to open back 60 secured cases).
So the solution was the right one, when I unplugged the "ground" end of the front USB connector cable from the USBOC pin, those connectors finally worked as expected with USB 2.0 compliant devices.
So thank you really much for this very usefull information !
And even if maybe it's not only MSI's fault, I still believe that more information on those connectors in the user's manual would be really usefull (who knows what USBOC means except a few people and who could imagine that pluggin on it a "ground" cable would make it unserviceable ??). And who ever saw a user's manual bundled with a case ?? it's pretty unusual
Hope that someone at MSI will read that and take it into consideration, not for me (because now I'm aware) but for the thousands other consumers that will feel a little bit "annoyed" with that issue. I don't think that adding one line about it in user's manuals would be so much expensive
But I'm quite lucky myself... being able to understand and write english (even if I still have some progress to do ) gave me the possibility to find the solution... but a lot of my french fellows can't do that... and there's no french forum here... How can they do ? They rely on user's manual
Best regards,
Nicolas

Having problem with hp computer freezing up and rebooting? have already updated video drivers

I having problem with HP Slimline Desktop with AMD Vision, freezing up and rebooting, and will sometimes show horiztonal lines across the screen, making screen unreadable. Have had problem for a few weeks, I have already checked with HP tools hard drive and video display both check out, and have I restored the system back to its orginal version by using partion drive and, none seems to help get rid of the freezing and rebooting of PC. Any thought what need to look at?

Can you locate a product number on the system that is freezing??
I am an HP employee, but my views are my own and are not endorsed by HP.

I am having problems with my computor freezing and going black screen and then coming on again,

i have a windows 7 hp elite and am having problems with it freezing and going black, was doing it on the zynga games, not it is with everything. i have cleaned, defraged, and shredded files, etc and have all the updates and even had it restored, but nothing is working. any ideas?

remove power cord, take battery out, hold the start button for 4 min, put battery back and press start lightly and hit f8 immediately severals times. it may start up right away or take several times.

It looks like the way forward is to delete any apps you are having problems with and reinstall hopefully you have your data on iCloud this seems to work

Looks like deleting and reinstalling the apps your having the problems with works in some cases

Hi Flash, Just some info to correct yours. First, not everyone is having a problem with FP 10.1 and there are solutions and reverting to FP 10.0 would not be the first choice. If that was for you, that's fine. If you would read the many many threads here, you would find correct information for users that want to revert back to FP10.
Also may I suggest you read up on Firefox version 3.6.6 as this is involved sometimes with FP 10.1.
Lastly, I think it is always better to find out what a user's issues are before offering a solution. Reverting back to FP 10.0 is not for everyone that is having a problem nor should it be.
If your instructions solved whatever problem you were having, that's great. However, to recommend this to other users that come here for help without knowing what their problems are may not be the best advice, in my opinion.
There are many other details in the Uninstall Instructions and also the Install Instructions that need to be followed.
That is why it is better for each user to have their own thread and receive help for their individual issues. This is also based on their computer system configuration.
Believe me, if there was one fix for all FP 10.1 or any other version issues, it would be posted
Thanks,
eidnolb

Having Problems With Your Macromedia Flash Player

Hey having probs, check out
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/triggerpages/flash.html
(it worked for me)

I've read in the Apple forums that Mavericks will rewrite some firmware (though I've seen no documentation to prove this). Some of the posters who complained about performance after upgrading, have reported the same as you, that the issues don't go away even after a reformat and reinstall of their previous OS.
I've never messed with firmware changes in any Mac I've owned. You may have to contact your local Apple store.

When do you know you have a problem with your phone and dropped calls?

My iphone 4 hasn't really been a problem but I've noticed and all the people who call me notice that my phone is dropping a lot of calls. It's almost dropping every other call, and that is awful should I go back to the store and take it back? I don't want to waste anyone's time or should I be angry. I try not to get ****** over a phone but my 3GS never did this.

You have 30 days to decide. Albuquerque has good to moderate 3G coverage. It is possible that ATT has again been overloaded with a mass of new phones and may need to make adjustments to their service. I am lucky to live in S Florida where coverage is great. However, if your coverage was marginal to begin with you may have trouble. I would let it sort itself out by July 24 the 30 day mark for most and decide than. The only thing to be mad about is not being able to have the phone you want at this time. In spite of what appears to be a large vocal group on this forum, who are really have problems, most of the 1.7 million phones are not. Again see what plays out in your 30day trial and make your decision accordingly.

Please report if you are having issues with your ATV

iTunes 9 created a streaming issue for me.

...it blows my theory that they maybe changed something with later builds.
Not necessarily. In my case, I think there are both hardware and software problems. I think stability issues like random restarts may be related to hardware, and I think the erratic wi-fi problems some people experience may be the result of bad hardware. On the other hand, the stability issues that almost always follow long streaming sessions may be related to memory/cache management issues, which may indicate software.
Streaming high bit-rate audio from a radio playlist seems to be particularly problematic for my ATV. It could be a hardware limitation problem, or it could be that the software can't manage such a data stream reliably for an extended period of time.
For example, if you stream a two-hour movie, the stream data will be cached ahead until all of the video data has been received, then the caching stops as the movie plays from the cache. However, a continuous live stream will never stop caching, and I think that's where the problem may be. Keep in mind that Internet radio wasn't possible until the v2 software, and that's when I began experiencing stability issues related to streaming.

Having problems with your epson print after installing Lion?

Go hear for download.

My Macpro wouldnt do a auto software update for some reason.

Hello Becky,
I performed all the windows xp updates when I installed xp.
Our computer has labview 6.0 and 6.1 on it. I thought maybe they were causing a problem, so I tried uninstalling them. I downloaded msiblast and tried to remove Labview 6.0 and 6.1, but since they used to be on a network, and the university does not carry those programs anymore, they gave me errors. I was able to uninstall 7.0 and reinstall it, but it still gave me the same error as described in the original post.
I went into the registry and removed 6.0 and 6.1, but it still gives me the same error.
I need a way of removing 6.0 and 6.1 so that I can do a clean install of 7.0.
Thanks for your help,
Sergio

I am having problems with the screen freezing for a short time ( a few seconds), what is the problem?

I can be working on any website, game, e-mail, and the screen will freeze for just a few seconds and then it will be ok again.
I don't know what has happened. Could it be my computer, mouse, or ME?

First try the standard troubleshooting steps of quitting the Camera app as described below then resetting your iPad.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
