Ipod gone crazy

hi there just got a brand new 5 generation ipod and dudes is doing weired things. let me just tell you i already posses an old ipod mini for 2 years and never experienced any problems. anyhow mz ipod is basically not playing any music anzmore!! its wiered because you can still hear the sound the wheel makes and once connected to a computer you can play the songs via the computer. first i thought it might be due to the fact that i use both a pc and a mac and somehow that screwed up the software but even once i restored the ipod and just uploaded music either from pc or mac it was still happening. there was never any traumatic event to it so it should be a software problem. i mean i can still view the song titels but it just wont start playing the damm things. anzway maybe one of you guys has experienced something similar and can help me

Most likely explanation is a drive letter conflict -- see if doing this helps any:

Otherwise use the firmware updater to restore and completely resync and all will be well.

IPod gone crazy in pretty much, every sense.

So, I had used my iPod Classic 80GB (the 2007 or 2008 version, I think) for about a year, daily and everything was swell (most of the time). Then, last Christmas I got a brand-new iPod Touch 4G which I instantly started using so my iPod Classic got removed from the computer with it's lead and got stuck inside a drawer beside me. Now, after about 3 months, I've decided that I shall be using the old, classic for music purposes (much larger memory) and the iPod touch for everything else. The problem is that I got the iPod out of the drawer yesterday (and I hadn't even touched it since it went into the drawer at Christmas) and the OS (I guess) has gone completely mad. Initially I thought it was a problem with artwork only (I'm a perfection maniac about the song managment on my iPod, in other words, every tune has artwork, certain format, genre etc) and whenever I played a tune, the wrong artwork would come up (I could recgonise it by the name of the song that it was obviously wrong). I didn't know what to do so I checked if it's something to do with iTunes but whenever I checked the artwork in iTunes, it seemed fine (just like it should've been) so I went back to iPod and checked on the artwork again but this time I attempted to press the "Next" button and to my surrprise, the song didn't change, it just reseted (as if you had pressed the "Back" button). Now I was really convinced that my iPod is f*ed so I plugged in my headphones to see if there's any sound and it was but the odd thing is that the song matched with the artwork (remember, when I said that the song title didn't match artwork). Now I'm fairly confused as to what I should do next. I tried Reset on the actual iPod but it didn't have any effect (it reseted but didn't fix my problem).

Follow the steps in this guide to see if any help, although I think a restore would probably be your best bet. Might be worth checking for any firmware updates as well.

ITunes/iPod gone crazy

ok, my hard drive recently crashed and i had to upload iTunes again. and since i wasn't able to back up my iTunes file, i used TouchCopy to take all the songs off my iPod and load them onto iTunes. afterwards i loaded a few more cd's into iTunes and restored my iPod to orginal settings to load everything back onto it. after syncing my iPod i scrolled through to check and make sure everything was there, but as soon as i got to the last artist on my iPod (notice: i was using the coverflow) it had a bunch of other cd's tagged on the end not in order. what's going on with this? can anyone help me? any help would be greatly appreciated

and if helps any, i noticed that all the albums that had been tagged at the end of the coverflow that are not in alphabetical order and ones that i have updated since i loaded all my songs onto iTunes

My ipods gone crazy

after recieving it back from apple with 'no problems' my music in itunes still wont go onto my ipod. and ive just clicked it to update and the ipod ejected itself and now theres a flashing apple logo on the screen whats going on?!

In windows, there should be a lil baby sized green arrow next to the clock in the bottom right corner. This is windows "Safly Remove Hardware" program. Try to use it to disconnect the ipod.
If it doesn't work and says something like "Application still using device" (Caused by antivirus and windows itself) shut down the PC, unplug the ipod, reset the ipod then turn the PC back on and plug it in

Has Anyone Found a Solution for G5 Fans Gone Crazy?

First of all, let me say that I am a long time Mac user going back to the Mac Plus days so I think I am fairly experienced in the ways of the Macintosh.
I have a G5 Dual 2.0 ghz (Original Version) that is two years old and until last month has worked fine. Then I started getting Kernel Panic every day and the fans have gone crazy, revving up and down until I want to scream.
My local Apple authorized dealer does not seem to be able to fix this problem. They have installed a new Logic Board and 600 watt Power Supply and over $700 in labor in this machine. Nothing has helped and they seem to suggest that I have a software problem. I do not agree with their assessment. I could have bought a new computer for what I have spent so far. As I type this, the fans are screaming full blast.
On the internet, I have found lots of similiar G5 fan problems but nobody seems to indicate if they were able to get the fans to stop racing and act normal again.
I have tried the normal suggestions, Engery Setting to Highest, reset the PRAM, erased my hard drive and reinstalled OS 10.4.6 several times, logged on as a new user. Nothing seems to help. Fans just will not settle down.
I bought this computer as a DEMO model and did not receive the Apple Hardware Monitoring CD. Does anyone know how I can get this disk? Perhaps, it could tell me what is wrong.
Looking for any help with this problem.

Sorry to hear about your problem Robert.
Since you have already started a hardware process with Apple, it's best to just deal with them. We users really can't do much.
I'm sure software has been eliminated by now in your repair process.
The verison of Apple Hardware Test on your install disks is no longer compatible with your firmware and OS version. Only Apple Store folks and techs would have a recent copy. I'm sure they ran it several times by now.
Take your machine back and say it's not fixed, remove your boot drive so they would have to use their own. Try another boot drive and remove the first.
All we can really do.

Gps gone crazy after 7.1 update

Hi everyone.
I ran my daily routine on a standart route. But after last ios update (7.1) my iphone 5's gps receiver gone crazy. I'm using Runkeeper for keeping data. But I've tried runtastic and moves too. Its all same. I attached a screenshot, so you can understand what I mean. I hope you can solve this problem quickly, because I'm losing money each day that I miss my commitment on the app "gympact".
Thanks

(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings for Wi-Fi, FaceTime, Message, Home Sharing will be reset

Photoshop CS5 Shortcuts Gone Crazy

The CS5 shortcuts were working fine for the past 2 weeks but now have gone crazy. When I hit Shift + F6, it flips my slection horizontally when it should bring up the Select > Modify > Feather. When I hit Shift + F5, it should bring up the Edit > Fill dialog box but instead it does a Select > Modify > Grow.
I deleted the PS Prefs file but that did not work. Anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
Thanks & Regards, Murray

Zeno, no,I did not reprogram any and I checked Edit>Keyboard Shortcuts the list is as it should be - Shift+F5 still shows as Fill; Shift+F6 still shows as Feather;
Other wrong shorts:
Shift+F7 now functions as Transform>Flip Vertical
Shift+F8 now functions as Transform> Rotate 90 deg CW
Shift+F9 now functions as Transform> Rotate 90 deg CCW
None of these incorrect shortcuts shows up in the Keyboard Shortcuts table. There are no other keyboard shortcut configurations other than the PS default table.
As mentioned earlier I have has CS5 installed for 2 weeks now and used the Shift + F5 for Edit>Fill about 50 times a day. I used Shift + F6 to feather a few times as well.
Thanks and regards, Murray

IdeaCentre A310: Screen's gone crazy

I've been using my A310 for 7 months without any problems but suddenly the screen's gone crazy. The touch controls (on the bottom right hand side of the screen) don't respond to touch any more, but the on-screen menu for managing the display keeps popping up and making random changes to the screen settings. I've downloaded and installed the video driver on the Lenovo support site but it doesn't help. Any suggestions?? It's making the machine entirely unusable (not least because it occasionally chooses to switch the display off for periods of up to an hour!!).
Any help or suggestions gratefully received, before I send it back under warranty.......

hey Benj11,
try uninstalling the video drivers, let Windows install its generic drivers and update the bios.
if these does not resolve it send it to the service center

HT1605 Where has sleep iPod gone from the timer menu?

Where has sleep iPod gone from the timer menu?

Hey, thank you very much for the clarification.
I just performed a quick test. If the iPod doesn't have any programs running it will indeed go to sleep after the "stop playing" timer ends. But if I'm playing music the "stop playing" timer will only stop playing the music when the timer ends, but will not actually put the iPod to sleep. Same goes for watching videos, the timer only stops playing the video but does not put the iPod to sleep.
The "sleep iPod" option, on the other hand, actually put the iPod to sleep when the timer ended.
The "stop playing" option only stops an app from playing media but does not put the iPod to sleep.
Why did Apple change the option from "sleep iPod" to "stop playing"?
How do I put my iPod to sleep now?
Thanks!

Mail has gone crazy. Header's and messages are mixed up. New Mac Book Pro. Migrated files from Time machine running snow leopard. Reinstall or new computer needed?

Ok; I'm not sure what you're doing. 36 hours is rather long. Seems like a new migration. Not what I intended.
Here's what I intended: from the newly-migrated and apparently-corrupt environment, create a new user, not related to any existing user, nor any migration-created user, or any other user for that matter. That is, use  > System Preferences > Users and Groups, authenticate yourself by clicking on the padlock, and then click the + and create a wholly new user. Then log in under that user and establish the mail access.
36 hours? I'm wondering if there's an error or an exceedingly slow network here? Or a really, really slow disk? Or a sick backup? (WiFi isn't the path I'd usually choose, either.)
Failing the attempted second migration, I'd try a different tactic. Does your existing (old) system work? If so, I'd bypass the backup and connect an external (scratch) USB disk drive to the (old) sstem and then boot and use Disk Utility booted from the installer DVD disk or boot and use Disk Utility from the recovery partition or booted from a recovery partition created on some other external storage (details here vary by the OS X version and what hardware you have), and perform a full-disk backup of your original internal disk to (scratch) external storage. (Make sure you get the source and target disks chosen correctly here; copying the wrong way — from the scratch disk to your existing disk — will clobber your data!) In esssence, this will clone your existing boot disk. Then dismount the (formerly-scratch) external disk, transfer it over to the new system, and use it as the source of the migration, by performing a fresh OS X installation on the new system.
Target Disk Mode is also sometimes an option for accessing the disk for a migration, but that requires the right cable, and requires systems that have the same external connection; newer MacBook Pro systems use Thunderbolt for this, and older systems tend to use FireWire. And I'm guessing you don't have compatible hardware.
The details here can and do vary by your OS X versions and your particular Mac systems — if you'll identify the specific models and hardware, somebody might be able to better tailor the above (fairly generic) sequence to your particular configuration.

Memory gone CRAZY PLEASE help

All,
This another question regarding my app, which has a main frame that contains Tabbedpane and have desktopPane attached inside. Within desktopPane I have multiple JInternalFrame. In each internalframe a textarea is attached for taking user input and displaying server feedback (the textarea has private classes that telnet to the server to do the input and output stuff).
I was testing my app last night and found out following problems:
1.) Memory just gone crazy! I opened several internal frames and did "cat *" on each of them just to test it out. I noticed the memory just gone crazy and the app become really slow responding. after I close the internal frames speed start getting better but memory is still not being released.
2.) I use InputStream.read() to read single byte from input stream. the return is an "int", I first convert it to a "char" and then cast it to a "string" then use the JTextArea.append("string") to append it to the textarea but it displays a little square after I press enter each time.
I appreciate your time and advise, thank you.

You can allocate extra memory to a Java program by putting something like
java -Xmx256m Myclass
That should tell you if running out of memory is really your problem.
Memory from abandoned items isn't recovered until the JVM decides to do a "garbage collection" which it doesn't usually bother with until it finds memory a bit tight.
You shouldn't cast byte input to char. In Java a character is a 16 bit UNICODE code value, and it's relationship with bytes depends on the "character encoding", by default the one native to your operating system.
If you want to read character input from a file etc. then use a Reader not an InputStream. If necessary you can "wrap" an input stream in an InputStreamReader object.
If you want to read it from the user in a Swing program then use an input field of some sort.

Colours in one catalogue gone crazy!!

Just recently, my main catalogue I regularly work in has gone crazy with it's colours. Peoples lips are a very over saturated pink, as if the have lip stick on. Anything pink is completely blown out. I fixed it last night by changing to a different catalogue, then changing back, but tonight it seems to be stuck on crazy colour mode.
Any idea's, and it's not my system colour management, as everything else is displaying perfectly. Only problems with this one catalogue.

Display gone crazy

I've got a HP2605dn and it works great up to today. The display has gone crazy. Is there a hard reset for the printer to resent it's memory?

Looks as if you've a graphics card and/or screen problem - I would lean more towards the GPU.
You should take the machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them evaluate the problem. This diagnosis should be free as should an estimate for repair (if you're not still under warranty).
Good luck,

Play Counts have gone crazy

I am not sure what has happened but sometime over the past few weeks my play counts have gone crazy. I have songs that are reporting a play count of between 265 and 769. Obviously these are not even close to correct (especially since the next closest number is like 20). Is there any reason this might have happened? Is there any way to correct this information without resetting the play count for those tracks completely?
Thanks!

Many thanks again. I do not understand the concept of 'using the script' on the page you refer me to: I am not terribly technical! Basically, I don't understand the comment 'Save the text of this file and add the extension .js and put it in your script folder and run the script in Window > Utilites > Scripts >' How do I save the 'text of this file', and does this refer to everthing that is in the box, beginning '//blind Open' and ending '}'? What is my 'script folder' and how do I find it? Is this a folder in InDesign, or Windows (I'm running Windows 7, 64bit).
I did try to open the 124 byte file (sorry, I said 124 KB by mistake), and got an error message that it could not be opened. Also, as a check I exported a much smaller file (1244 KB, as opposed to the 'problem' file, which is 5668 KB), and the resulting file was 48 KB.
Thank you again for trying to help!
