IPod main screen shows "No Music" even though...

My ipod main screen shows "No Music", "No Videos" "No Pictures" etc... and when I click on music, for example, it shows no bands, no nothing. BUT when I go to settings it shows I have 67.6 GB free space. meaning I have around 53 GB of files on my ipod (It's a classic 120G ipod). I've tried restarting it, and it didn't help. I think if I restore default settings I'd lose all the files. Has anyone experienced this? Can anyone help? I'm desperate! They're in there somewhere.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync (from your description it is not clear you did that)
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Does apple fix an ipod under warranty if the inside screen was slightly cracked even though you cant feel the crack because its on the inside.do they fix that????

ONLY Apple could answer this.
If they determine that the ipod is defective, then warranty will cover it.
If they determine that it is damaged, then the warranty will not cover it.

when I open logic express 8 with eyetv open but not active and i close logic express 8 and make eyetv active eyetv won't show closed captioning even though closed captioning is turned on. When I totally close eyetv and reopen eyetv and open a live tv window the closed captioning comes back. I never noticed this with os leopard, Just after i installed os snow leopard. All software is up to date only I think, thanks to apple they droped support for logic express. Thanks for any suggestions.

Does toggling CC off & back on bring it back?
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Not all my songs are showing in itunes even though they are in the Itunes Media file directory

Not all my songs are showing in itunes even though they are in the itunes Media Dir. I have spent hours trying to find out why so I moved the songs out of the Music/itunes/itunes media and uninstalled itunes. I then restarted my pc and re-installed itunes. When I opened itunes the same songs are still there (but cannot be played as cannot find location) even though I have not put anything back in the itunes media dir. To me there seems to be a refreshing problem as itunes is not looking at the directory even through the advanced preferences area is mapped to the correct area.
Help please.
Thanks

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here: Find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership, or that sometimes the same file can be represented by multiple entries in the library and that deleting one and recycling the file will break the other.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.
See also Make a split library portable for some thoughts on best practice when it comes to organizing the library and media files.

The display on my monitor is too large (can't fit the whole screen on my monitor) even though the resolution is correct. Suggestions?

Sounds like it may just be enlarged. Have you tried holding down the <ctrl> key and moving the mouse up and down, or scrolling your finger up and down if you have a magic pad.

I have Adobe Reader XI with the package that allows me to send pdfs and convert pdfs to Word. When I open a pdf and try to search the search shows no matches even though the word I am searching for is in the document. Any suggestions how to search?

Once again, my thanks for your assistance. If I may impose on your generosity one more time, if I understand you correctly if I create a document on Word or WordPerfect, print it and scan it to create a pdf, the search function will not work. But, if I create the pdf document in Word the search function will work. Unfortunately, I am not sure how I create a pdf document in Word other than by printing it and scanning it. Could you please explain.

Why does my library show no content even though ATV2 can see my library?

Why does my library show no content even though ATV2 can see my library?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Format address panel in iCal to show Department from the address book. At the moment it is showing 'Job Title' even though that has been removed in Address Book.

I have a similar problem. I actually spoke with a Paypal customer Representative a few months back who informed me that they had deleted all of my previous *Hidden* Address but when I just purchased an item today on a online merchant's site that I had never been to before and checked out using their Paypal option, I noticed that my default shipping address was in fact my old address and when I went to change the address to my current address, I noticed all of the old addresses I ever used were still there. I've just spoken with 2 separate paypal representatives who confirmed on their end that all of the old address have been deleted and the only one they have on file is my current address. Can anyone provide me an explanation as to why the old hidden address can still be showing up when I check out on merchant's sites using paypal even after they've seemingly been deleted? The last Representative suggested clearing out my browser's cache, but I don't believe that will resolve my issue. Thank you in advance.

When I play one of my clips on imovie it shows up black even though I can see the whole clip on my menu of movies when I'm not playing it.

When I play one of my clips on imovie it shows up black even though I can see the whole clip on my menu of movies when I'm not playing it. Does that make sense and can someone help me with this problem?

Long standing problem, much discussion on the forums. Typically it has to do with incompatibility of Microsoft Exchange email client. See the links on "More Like this" at right.
Two solutions:
One is to zip compress the file and send the attachment that way.
Another is the freebie program "Attachment Tamer" - see

Call showing as abandoned even though set to handled

UCCX version 8.5.1.11004-25
In our script we're allowing callers on hold to request a call back. This is achieved by inserting a menu option with prompt to push 1 and a redirect to another script that records number and message.
All works great but all calls that request call back show as abandoned even though we've inserted a "Set contact info" to handled in the successful section of the re-direct.
Again just to state my question is around reporting (the actual call back function works great)
In reporting the cal still shows up in the abandoned report, my understanding was that by setting the contact info to handled before the redirect it would stop this happening.
Also have tested moving the "Set contact into" up to the "ReqCallback" option in the menu.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

The Set Contact Info step cannot be used to mark a Contact as Handled from an ACD metrics perspective. The only thing that can influence the CSQ metric for Handled is if an Agent answers the call.
The Set Contact Info step will mark the Contact as Handled from an IVR metrics perspective.
What you might want to do is, use the Dequeue step, and possibly one of the Custom Call Variables to mark the call appropriately.
Let me know if that makes sense to you, or if I wasn't clear enough.

"That's why I'm wondering whether they still can fix it as lifetime guaranty or not?"
No, not lifetime.
According to the referencd article:
"If the NVIDIA graphics processor in your MacBook Pro has failed, or fails within four years of the original date of purchase, a repair will be done free of charge, even if your MacBook Pro is out of warranty."

It sounds as though you haven't logged in to the service yet. From the ExportPDF website, click Sign in at the upper-right corner, and log in to the service with your Adobe ID credentials. Now, when you click ExportPDF, you'll be prompted to select PDF files to export, instead of being asked to subscribe.

I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.
