Im in a situation here, please help me out !

Ok, i had to reformat my computer, my iTunes is brand new, but my iPod still has all its music in it, and everything is "Manual" in preferences or else its going to get deleted.
I AM NOT GOING TO LOSE 2.5K OF MUSIC !!!!
Someone please tell me what I can do or if I am screw'd :-/

Have a look at iPodAgent.
It will allow you to take your iPod tracks and copy them back to an empty iTunes library.

    Yeah there is no way to put the N73 firmware onto the N70, the phone simply isn't built to use it. There are probably hardware issues too.
    Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?

  • Please Help me Out APPLE TEAM :(

    Hi,
    I recevied an iPhone 5 as a gift in the month of january from my friend from US. Am in INDIA and am using it in INDIA only. It was perfectly working fine until i upgraded it to ios 7 beta version through a third party. i saw one of my fried doing this and it was working fine for his device. So out of curiosity i too tried d same as a result of which my device just showed me an apple LOGO and after that nothing happend. I got worried and called the customer support people. They adviced me to downgrade it to ios 6.1.4 using the factory resetting option. I did the same as they directed me to do. the phone was successfully restored. Now here comes the problem. The device says that "this iphone has been activated with t****@icloud.com, so please enter that valid id. If i enter my apple id it returs an error stating that this [email protected] cannot be used to activate this phone. but other than this particular id if i give any other id it throws "Invalid Id or Password".  One of the Customer support person told me that this cannot be replaced in INDIA, you need to send it to US to get it replaced. I tried this option as well. The person from US said that this device cannot be replaced as this one is a software issue, and he suggested me to wait till ios7 gets released. I called the customer support people again and they said that this might be due to the software corruption so please do wait till ios 7 gets released and after that resotring the device to factory settings it must work. Now i restored the device using factory restoring to ios 7. My device has been restored to ios 7. But still i am facing the same issue. Really frustrated to the core. can someone help me fix this. Now the customer support person is telling to send the device to US again and have a check with them. jun, july, august and spet. 4 months of no iphone and its just lying as a toy inside my cupboard which is of no use. Frrl like crying.the customer support people in INDIA told me that there is an option of paid replacement in INDIA for the software issues, but he is not sure whthr this option is available in US. So please someone tell me what can be done, am ready for the paid replacement as well.
    Thanks In Advance

    here is a sample code .
    so far you procedure looks good but

  • Airport express setup, not working, please help me out

    i recently purchased a airport express so that i can extend the range of my current network, use airtunes, and have wireless printer sharing. My base station is a d-link router, and from there i have been having a lot of problems. I have been able to set up the airport express part of the way, but not with complete functionality. I have been able to use it for music and i havent tried printing, but i cannott connect through the internet with it, i have to revert back to my base station router for that.I have tried the entire manual, scoured the mac support website and googles this problem for hours with no end. please help me out here, this is getting pretty frustrating
    thanks for all the help in advance

    Hello CAUTION5697. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Unfortunately, most non-AirPort routers are not compatible with Apple's implementation of Wireless Distribution System (WDS)...so it very unlikely that your D-Link router can be extended wirelessly with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX).
    The few that are known to work are:
    o another Airport Express Base Station
    o 802.11g Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS)
    o 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)
    o Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS (not v5)
    o Belkin F5D7230-4 and F5D7231
    o BT Voyager 2091
    o Netgear WGR614 v6
    o Buffalo WGR-G54
    Instead, you can configure the AX to "Join an existing wireless network" for both streaming iTunes and for sharing a USB printer. Check out the following Apple article on how: AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode

    PLEASE CAN U GIVE ME EXACT CODE FOR CHANGES TO BE MADE IN THIS BADI ..AS IT IS NOT WORKING...
    Can anybody help me regarding how to debug the BADI in R3.
    Thanks in Advance...

    Hi Ravi,
    You can transfer the standard SRM catalog ID field to R/3 tracking number field (if not already used for another purpose) in the R/3 PO.
    This will avoid to implement the R/3 inbound bapi.
    Here is an extract of the code.
    The ECS PO badi example was here used to transfer the unlimited delivery flag to R/3 PO for a Z combination of criteria as well as the transfer of <b>catalog ID</b> to <b>tracking number field</b> in R/3 PO :
    method IF_EX_BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI~BBP_B46B_PO_OUTBOUND.
    update unlimited delivery flag in R3 PO for combination of vendor +
    Product Category maintained in the bespoke table ZUD_PC_VNDR ..
      LOOP AT ct_bapi_poitem INTO ls_bapi_poitem.
        lv_tabix = sy-tabix.
        IF ls_bapi_poitem-po_item IS NOT INITIAL.
          READ TABLE it_item INTO ls_item
               WITH KEY number_int = ls_bapi_poitem-po_item
                          del_ind    = ' '.
          IF sy-subrc = 0.
    Set Unlimited delivery Flag
            read table li_zud_pc_vndr into ls_zud_pc_vndr
                            with key partner       = ls_partner-PARTNER_ID
                                       category_id = ls_item-category_id.
            if sy-subrc eq 0.
              ls_bapi_poitem-UNLIMITED_DLV = 'X'.
            endif.
    Set the Dummy catalog.. entry..
            if ls_item-catalogid eq c_dummy.
              ls_bapi_poitem-TRACKINGNO = c_noncat.
            endif.
            ls_bapi_poitem-GR_BASEDIV = ' '.
            modify ct_bapi_poitem from ls_bapi_poitem index lv_tabix
                          transporting UNLIMITED_DLV TRACKINGNO GR_BASEDIV.
          ENDIF. "READ TABLE it_item ..

  • Posted this query several times but no reply. Please help me out

    Hi all,
    How to know whether a servlet had completely sent its response to the request.
    The problem what i am facing is, I send response to a client's request as a file.
    The byte by byte transfer happens, now if the client interrupts or cancels the operation, the response is not completed.
    At this stage how to know the response status. I am handling all exception, even then I am unable to trap the status.
    Please help me out.
    I have posted this query several times but no convincing reply till now. Hence please help me out.
    If somebody wants to see the code. I'll send it through mail.

    Hi,
    thanks for the reply,
    Please check the code what I have written. The servlet if I execute in Javawebserver2.0 I could trap the exception. If the same servlet is running in weblogic 6.0 I am unable to get the exception.
