In need of help syncing my VC3... and yes I know there are many post, BUT

So,
Here is the difference between what many of you might take as first instinct to reply by saying, "there are many questions regarding this topic already..."
My phone has been syncing fine with iSync. It is not until today that it has decided to stop working properly. The message i get when I try to sync is, "synchronization has failed because the phone is not connected".
As stated elsewhere in the forums, I have checked system profiler - and the phone comes up as noticed via USB port.
Any ideas of what might be the issue here? I thought maybe there was a particular setting that needs to be turned on/off in either iSync or the phone itself.
Any insight would be great!
thanx,

For anyone looking for info, just do a Google search - for many of the results you will have to do some reprogramming, but it's minimal, and best of all; works!

HT4059 How do you actually search for free books - a few are listed, but not many and I know there are thousands more, but can't figure out how to see the complete list or at least a genre list. Thanks!

How to access the list and genre of the free ebooks, also the paid ones. I have a few, but I know there are thousands of others to choose from, but don't know how to access them. Thanks!

I'm another one of the very grumpy customers regarding the problems synching Outlook calendars with the new 2.0 iPhone.
I have another twist: I did not ever have multiple calendars in Outlook until the 2.0 update; I had just one. After I updated the iPhone software to 2.0 I have multiple calendars which I did not create. My iPhone has all the events listed, color coded by these various calendars, but when I look at my calendar(s) in Outlook, I can not see all the events at once. So my iPhone is the most complete, and my computer version is fragmented. This is an unacceptable royal pain. I'm relieved to know it's not just me, my iPhone, my Outlook, etc., but I'm definitely one of the many of us who are grumpy with Apple and impatient for their fix.
My question is: how do I sync my Outlook to my iPhone and delete all these calendars without deleting events? I just want one calendar again: mine, all mine.
PS I do have recurring events, but way too many to hand change them all; that's ridiculous. Even if I didn't have many of those it's ridiculous that the recurrences should create these problems. It's a pretty basic electronic calendar function.

When ever i shut down my mac and start it again there are many blank folders and they never go what shall i do and also the apps get scattered randomly? Please Help?

how do i remove these folders permanently?

Very strange.
Did you try the startup in Safe mode by following the instructions in the link I provided?
If you did and it made no difference, I suggest you try an SMC reset and if that does no good, go for Recovery mode.

[Desktop][Music] Artist page needs to make it easier to find an album when there are many

If you visit an artist page with a tonne of albums like Antonín Dvořák it is difficult to find a particular album you're looking for. You have the choice between scrolling through heaps of track listings or using grid view. The former is too much to scroll through; the latter requires unnecessary cognitive effort. (I'm going to post a separate idea about that.) What I would like to see is a condensed list of rows, one album per row. Perhaps you could click on part of a row to expand it and see the tracks on it. This could be another display mode alongside the existing two modes.

Yes, you can do it using a script. This code should do the trick:
this.movePage(this.numPages-1, -1);

Burning issues and yes i know this has been posted up before

Ok , just like some indicated before that my itunes use to burned perfectly on maximum speed , so after a while i had a few problem in burning it would start burning then 10-20 sec it would say disk error or something like that and i would lose the recordable cd i inserted . So i went to 4x to see if maybe that would fix it but , the same dam thing happens and happens over and over making me lose recordable cd's again! without warning ! Can i some how fix this by cleaning maybe the lens with a cd lens cleaner or will that mess up my lense on my mac osx? How can i fix this problem ? thanks

I would suggest first having a look at How do I clean my CD recorder? I would have to say that you should never have to clean a CD or DVD drive, and if you really really really can't resist, try using some canned air using extreme care.
If you don't already have canned air, and don't have any other optical drive "snake oil" remedies, then I would say the likelihood of effecting a sound repair based on investment in such would not be in your favor.

Hello I have a few questions and I need some help with my iTunes and iPod

Hello iTunes people.
I have a little problem with my iTunes. I actually almost know nothing about iTunes really. But I have had a 80 gig ipod .. ummm I think it's a iPod classic maybe. A long time ago I just downloaded iTunes. I think one of my tech friends already had put the program onto my PC so I did not even have to download it. Anyways I put my life's collection of mp3's onto iTunes and then syncs it with my iPod and it worked great. Here is my problem. I just recently bought a MONSTER PC. I have lovingly named it " ED209 " I downloaded iTunes for it and I have the most up to date version.8.1.1 is the most current version correct? Ok well here is my problem. What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library. I DO NOT want to import anything from the library or playlist or whatever you call it ONTO the iPod because there is nothing in the library. Now this is were its gets weird and possibly silly. A person I was chatting with on Facebook sort of made fun of me because she was like " Dude! Just push " Sync " But the reason I am paranoid is because THIS is the message I get....
" The iPod " Aaron's iPod " is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this iTunes library? "
HOLY COW!! That girl on Facebook was making fun of me but READ THAT. That exactly says ERASE the "iPod" and Sync with THIS library " It does not say put what is ON the iPod into THIS Library. It says it the other way around. Clear as day it says it will ERASE the " Ipod " it does not say " Fill the library with whats on your iPod "
Do I all of a sudden not understand English or something???? I know how to freaking read and from what it says is sounds a 100 percent like " we will ERASE youe iPod and put everything from this playist or library onto your iPiod" But there is NOTHING in my library? Am I mentally challenged or what?
I hope someone can help me here and I have another request. Could someone just tell me all the cool things I can do with iTunes and my iPod? I am trying to read the help files and the FAQ and whatever else Apple provides you with but it has SO MUCH crap that looks usless. I find myself reading a whole paragraph about some simple little section of s section of a section of a feature! Know what I mean. Someone give me the long and short of the neat things I can do with this stuff. I have windows Vista with a wicked computer that has like 6 gigs of ram and m iPod is a 80 GB Classic
help !!
PROTEUS

*What I want to do is I want to put everything that is currently on my iPod ONTO the iTunes library.*
1). Connect your iPod to your computer. When you get the message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
2). When your iPod appears in the iTunes source list change the update setting to manual, that will let you continue to use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
3). Once you are connected and your iPod is safely in manual mode there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. iTunes will only let you copy your purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
For everything else (music from CDs, other downloads and including iTunes purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Comparison of iPod managers
A selection of iPod to iTunes utilities:
TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod2PC Windows Only
iDump Windows Only
YamiPod Mac and Windows
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows
Floola Mac & Windows
iPodRip Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Music Liberator Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
4). Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.
5). I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

You will need to setup a new Apple ID for your sister. You have to have an Apple ID and iDevice connected and using that account to get an iCloud account.

You can't. Your mysterious benefactor must remove the device from her (I guess you know it's a her?) iCloud account by logging into icloud.com, going to Find my iPhone and removing from there.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
That's exactly what you need. A Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241?viewlocale=en_US
This is the only way to view a video on the TV. After connecting your MacBook Air to the TV, image on your TV should show immediately. Then, press Command and F1 keys to mirror your MacBook Air display, and open the video

TS4062 I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. Any other suggestions?

I've done all of these recommended steps. My problem is that I have a new laptop that I am trying to sync my iPhone (and iPad for that matter) via Wi-Fi but both devices are looking for the old laptop to sync. My iTunes is version 11.0..3.42, iPhone is 6.1.4, and iPad 6.1.3. Any suggestions?

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

OK, let's try these................
1 - Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu. When done, restart back to your desktop, repair permissions and restart your computer. Re-connect your printer.
2 - Download & install the Gimp drivers. Make sure the one you install is compatible w/your OS-Gutenprint 5.2.8-pre1. Repair permissions, restart your computer & re-connect your printer when done.
The Epson model I have, in order to get it to print wirelessly, I had to install a Gimp driver.
3 - Check out the following KB Articles:
Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Connecting to a network printer
Epson Printer Drivers v2.10 OS X
Adding a printer to your printer list in Mac OS X
Mac OS X 10.4 Help: The printer I'm adding says "Driver not installed"
======================
If still unsuccessful after trying all of the above, the problem could be your iBook or human error. You can either call Epson & ask to speak with a Mac savy supervisor or return the printer & find another that is compatible w/your current OS.
