IPod and iTunes... significant and rather severe problems...please help!!!

Hi...
A few days ago my iPod all lagged up when I was using it...so I synced it with the mac and all the problems went away...so far so good right!...well a few days later it wouldn't shuffle when I shook it (it would only go back to the previous menu!),
nor did the "shuffle songs" menu item work in the main menu...
...and during play if the little 'shuffled' icon was displayed in the top right corner, then it would only play that song, and then go back to the previous menu...
...so I synced it again...and reformatted it!-still no change...and then the shuffle songs button on iTunes stopped working!!!
Can somebody please help...I have no idea what's going on!!!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Problems with Ipod and Windows Media Player PLEASE HELP

Ok i am not sure if this is the correct forum or not but i am having a problem. I have a Windows computer (Yes a windows computer please dont everyone yell at me) and i have a new ipod 30 gig video. Ok well when i put itunes on it changes all my music on my computer gets changed to AAC format and i cannot play music in windows media player. Ok well that is not my big issue. I make videos for church using windows movie maker and i cannot import music because nothing windows can recognize Itunes format which is AAC. well is there anyway so i can use itunes and still use WIndows Media Player and Windows Movie Maker... Any info will be greatly appreciated. THANKS ALL

I believe Quicktime Pro (which is available for Windoze) is capable of opening any WMP files and then you just export it as iPod format. That is how I get video onto the iPod. The Music and Videos all can be placed onto your iPod through iTunes.
So, if you are creating videos in your program, and want them on your iPod, then that is how you can do it.
Videos on your iPod have nothing to do with the formatting of your music. But, as the earlier post stated, change your prefs in iTunes to import as MP3. But, your videos HAVE to be in MP4 or M4V format to work on the iPod.
Good luck... and I'm a j3susfreak too

I am about to shoot my iPod and receiver...please help

I have a 6th generation iPod classic. I bought a Yamaha receiver with their YDS-11 dock station that is "made for iPod". I get the music through the receiver, but not playlists on my TV (the TV is run through the receiver) as is supposed to happen with compatible iPods (and the 6th generation is listed as compatible). I have a bunch of TV settings. Are these what are keeping me from getting the playlists on my TV??
Thanks in advance for your help. I don't want to hurt my iPod, but I will do it.
Dan

thank you, Maria!
anyway, the only problem i have now is that it disconnects itself after a short while -1 minute tops- and shows this "cant read or write the ipod" message.
woohoo! that error message we've actually got some documentation on:
-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" error syncing iPod in iTunes
... and one of the possible causes of that error message is a software conflict.
tracking down that particular possibility might be a pain though ... it's generally a trial and error thing. the techniques outlined in these documents might be helpful:
Close Applications Running in the Background
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
... keep us posted ...

Problem: codebase, jar and image reloading problem please help!

Hi Java Gurus,
I have written an applet that extends JApplet for viewing webcam. In order to reduce the download time I put my classes into a doorcam.jar file. The following is my <applet> tag in my html file.
<applet code="CameraApplet.class"
archive="doorcam.jar"
codebase = "webcam/classes"
width="375" height="475">
<param name="imagePath" value="http://judge/webcam/images">
<param name="webCamImage" value="door.jpg">
<param name="COMPort" value="COM2">
<param name="frameRate" value="10"> 
<param name="host" value="judge">
</applet>
The fist problem is that my class file does not get loaded from the jar file if i provide the "codebase" attribute as above. Instead the browser load every single class file from the webserver. This has some problem too. Coz the browser sometimes just thorough NullPointerException or ClassNotFoundException. After much of debugging I found out that the problem is the IE browser which seldom fails to load classes or image file from the server. If i referesh the browser the applet and all its classes loaded successfully and runs smoothly. This behaviour never occurs when running with "appletviewer".
I wanted all my classes to be loaded from my jar file. After much of trial and error I found out that if i remove "codebase" attribute the browser loads the classes from my jar file and applet loads very fast. This is where the second problem comes in. The browser does not reload my webcam image file so that the webcam become alive with live images, like before.
If I run on "appletviewer" everything works fine my web cam is displayed properly. But in IE browser the image does not get reloaded when I refresh my image to give live to my webcam display. The refresh method is given below.
private void refresh(final URL url) {
Image webCamImage =getImage(url);
webCamImage.flush(); // flush out the previous image
webCamImage = getImage(url); // get a new image
webCamImageIcon.setImage(webCamImage); webCamImageIcon.paintIcon(webCamLabel, webCamLabel.getGraphics(), 15, 15);
When I add the "codebase" attribute back, the image gets reloaded for every refresh() and everything works fine. But the classes are also loaded from the server. And occasionally also suffers Class loading and image loading problem. As I presented earlier, when I do refreshing in the browser everything gets loaded and the applet function correctly with web cam displaying very well.
The problem is so strange that I could not find any way to solve it.
It would be a great help to me if somebody provide me some work around to the problem.
I tested on Windows 2000, Windows XP, IE 5.5, IE 6 with J2SDK 1.4.0.
Thank you all very much in advance.
best regards,
Judge

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I did tried the way u suggested. The problem still the same.
I think its the problem between IE browser and Java Plug-in.
I which SUN would find these incompatibilities and solve these problems.
I even tried using java SDK and plug-in 1.4.1 it even worst. It can't even load an applet. And it does not show any loading messages nor any error messages. It just show a cross sign on the upper left coner.
I would be so glad, if Sun would try to eliminate the inconsistancies such as caching, loading, initializing etc between browser and its Java plug-In. For example, applets behave well in appletviewer and behave unpredictably in browser environment.
I have seen so many people in the forums with all sorts of problems because of this.
Right now I m desperately looking for work around to my problem.
If somebody would provide me with the solution to my problem it would be a great help to me.
thank you all so much.
best regards,
Judge

Hello Ricky.
All of the questions you asked could have been answered if you had used the search feature. However, as a first timer we like to point you in the right direction. Here goes:
1. There is a search feature that is in the Office folder. It can search the entire device for you, for names, addresses, etc...
2. You can not sure the same connection for two different operations. I mean that: if you want to use MSN and then use Yahoo, you must tell Yahoo to use the connection that MSN is on. This will work every time. The best thing to do is to use a default connection for both. Make sure they use the SAME connection.
3. There is: IM+ by ShapeServices @www.shapeservices.com (pay service), Fring @ www.fring.com (free and it works well. Consider it Skype for your phone).
4. Nope. There is a piece of software that I can not remember the name to that will do this. Someone will post the link for you for sure. Vmoisa, Jafores. You guys around?
Hope this helps.

G585 wired and wifi networking problems - please help!!

Just purchased a new G585 a couple weeks ago. After trying Win 8, I realized what a complete POS of an OS it is and installed Win 7.
2 Major problems:
1. Ethernet connection erratically disconnects - no rhyme or reason - sometimes works other times doesn't. I've tested on two diff networks - the same behavior.
2. Cannot install wifi - tried the drivers from Lenovo site - no go - tried drivers someone had recommended (broadcom wifi5.100.196.18) these did not work either - device still unrecognized in device manager
This is my 9th Lenovo laptop over the years. The others were great. This one seems to have serious issues.
Can anyone assist please???

I have had these same connectivity issue since I bought the laptop in March of 2013. It is January 2014, and is will still drop connectivity for no apparent reason, be incredibly slow when it IS connected, and sometimes just sop seeing the network altogether (and this happens on every netwrok I have attempted to connect to).
The most obnoxious thing is that after spending several hours over multiple days on the phone with tech supprt, they said I needed to send it in for repair. So I did. It was gone two weeks and when I got ti back, they claimed that had repaired it, but everything was exactly the same.
Combine that with the lack of help for the company and the fact that this seems to be the only laptop where edge swipes on the touchpad cannot be disabled, this Lenovo laptop is the worst computer I have ever owned, period. And I mean ever.
If there ACTUALLY IS a way to fix this issue, I would love to hear it, bit nothing that anywone ever suggest actually works. I thought maybe if I upgraded to Windows 8.1 it would help, but the Lenovo site lists the G585 as a model you shouldn't update because of monitor driver issues witht he upgrade. It really looks to me like Lenovo has written this model off completely.
I will never buy another Lenovo product and I will direct other people to other brands. Words cannot describe my frustration and disappointment.

Firewire and audio interface problem, please help

Hi all
I'm not being lazy, i've spent hours trawling through forums and google trying to find a fix but cant so hope someone here can help.
Basically, I've been using my Macbook for Logic Studio with an audio interface (Motu 8pre). This was connected via firewire 400 to firewire 400 and worked absolutely fine no problems.
I've recently got a Mac Pro. I've installed Logic onto it, my Motu 8pre driver etc etc and noticed that the firewire socket on the Mac Pro is different. I've been on the Motu website and quite clearly they say that a firewire 400 to firewire 800 cable will work fine with modern macs (this can be seen in more detail at bottom right of this web page http://www.motu.com/products/motuaudio/8pre
I've bought one of these cables and plugged them into my interface and Mac Pro respectively, switched on the device as i have been doing for the past year with my Macbook, but the MacPro just wont seem to recognise it.
How can I get this interface to work with my Mac Pro?
I've tried connecting to different ports on back and front, restarting machine but it just wont work.
Am I missing something simple here?
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Adam

Ok its official I AM a muppet.
Went onto motu site again and noticed they released an update driver for snow leopard. Downloaded it and it works fine.
Fixed.
Thanks

Problem with Spotlight and some system problem, Please HELP!

I'm using iMac G5 with iSight (10.4.8)
Recently, I've noticed that my spotlight didn't search anything, when I type something it just do nothing.
I try to re indexing the spotlight by move the HD to the privacy zone in the spotlight preference but nothing appear on the list. I can't add anything to the privacy zone both by draging the folder or click + button.
Then I search for the application that can clear the cache and re indexing the spotlight, I found Onyx and Maintenance.
Both of them can't be open, it say that I have to use an admin account.
Even I was logged in as a Admin, I have only one account in the system and set as an admin already.
So, I search on the internet and someone suggest another way to re index in terminal by using this command: sudo mdutil -E /
First I open the terminal and type the command, it said "-bash: sudo: command not found "
So, I try to use terminal by boot on the DVD that bundle with iMac, and same result.
I tried boot in single user by press command and S when boot and type sudo command, same reult.
Another information, I noticed on my macbook when I open the terminal, it will show this info:
Last login: show the time
Welcom to Darwin!
My computer name
But on my iMac, it didn't show anything except only the computer name line.
What should I do? Thanks

Highly recommend that you read, reread and understand the consequences and then follow the directions as presented on X Lab

That is before you follow some of the directions you find on some of these discussions. Even mine.

Clone Stamp and Healing brush problem, please help!

Hi there, I'm new to the forum but I have been using Adobe creative suite for quite some time now. As the thread title describes, I'm having an issue with my photoshop clone stamp and healing brush tool that I can't seem to fix on my own. I searched the internet all day, scrolling over many other posts but I can't seem to find anyone else who is having similar issues like I am having here.
This is kinda hard to explain but the issue I am having, is that when I go to use either my clone stamp or healing brush tool, the layer I am working on whether it is a flattened background or normal editable layer, get shifted as soon as I press the option key to make a selection and then when I go to move to the area to use these tools it acts like I've duplicated the entire layer and drags it around the screen, even though no such copy and paste has been made. All of my other tools are working normally and I wasn't having this issue last time I worked on anything in photoshop.
I am running:
a Mac OSX 10.5.8
CS4 extended version 11.0.2
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Your probably seeing the clone source overlay.
Go to Window>Clone Source and either uncheck:
Show Overlay for no overlay or check clipped to show the overlay
clipped to the size of the brush.

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

I don't know why it stopped working but it happened a month or two ago but the option on this phone that's usually all the way to the left when you select your device but now its not and I don't know what caused it. ive already tried troubleshooting my problem but have found no help.

Hello Salmomma,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to connect your iPhone to your Mac. I recommend following the steps in the tutorial below for an issue like this:
iPhone not appearing in iTunes

Additionally, you can delete music directly from the iPhone by swiping the song:
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.

That is precisely what my mid-2010 MacBoook Pro 13 was doing before the drive finally died after an Apple Genius rebooted it a dozen or so times. I have since read about the exact same thing happening to others, including a writer for The Atlantic magazine who had never had an issue with a Mac before. Do a back-up ASAP to make sure you don't lose anything and see about replacing the HDD. It is only about $140 for a new drive. The real issue is if you lose your data, too. So, make sure you do that back-up!
