IPod says it has no battery left right after it has been charged

I'm on vacation so I have to use a library computer to charge my iPod. Sometimes after I charge it it works and I can listen to it, but other times it will say it's at least partially charged, but when I listen to it after a few seconds it says it's out of batteries and crashes. This is impossible because once I was listening to it beforehand and just plugged it in to charge for thirty minutes or so, and then it said it had no batteries. How can I fix it so the iPod is working for the trip home?

Normally, an iPod's battery needs to be replaced for every 18 months. Probably it is a sign now !!
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

This problem has plagued Firefox for years now, and there seems to be no end in sight for a fix.
There are all kinds of possible solutions, some you will have found that simply do not work, b/c nobody knows why it happens.
Some of the forum fixes include:
1) disable hardware acceleration in Firefox
2) use safe mode which is not a solution just makes the browser not use any plugins and the browser like its from 1995
3) Use flash in protected mode
I posted those because that is what you will mostly hear on these forums and someone will surely mention to you, so feel free to search and try them first if you so choose.
I have tried all of these things in the past and were completely useless to me.
I have found only one solution that i personally came up with that does not appear to be accepted on these forums due to the fact that nobody understand why it works, nor is willing to suggest or test it. But it has worked and the proof is in my blogs that it does work for some.
First before we get too far into things.
Open a cmd prompt and close Firefox.
type or copy/pate one line at a time:
del C:\Windows\Prefetch\PLUGIN-CONTAINER*.pf
del C:\Windows\Prefetch\flashpl*.pf
del C:\Windows\Prefetch\firefox*.pf
del C:\Windows\Prefetch\FLASHPLAYERUPDATESERVICE*.pf
del C:\Windows\Prefetch\PLUGIN-HANG*.pf
Now open the page and test to see if that seems to help out or not. Hopefully it will.
note: these files will eventually recreate themselves so no harm is done. it is my believe that there is stale data withing some of them that conflicts with current data.
If this works, then head on over to:
http://firefoxcrash.blogspot.com/2013/12/firefox-crashes-adobe-flash-player.html
for a further explanation, and a way to keep those files cleaned.
Also, make sure you flash players are up to date and cleared of any old installs.
http://adobeflashcleanup.blogspot.com/ there is a bat file that will uninstall, clean up , and go to the adobe site and get and install the latest versions of flash for you. all automated
IF not, then i am sure someone will be able to tell you what they have been telling everyone here for years.
Best of luck

in the command prompt would i press enter after every line that's pasted

answer is yes
you can also create a bat file, by simply renaming dumping the contents in a .txt file and changing the .txt to .bat
i would recommend trying the below in bat file. This will simply keep these files clear until you close the window, and will run in a loop as said until you close. this type of fix resolved my issue, but i compiled it to an exe so it would run silently. The forum moderators seem to slander and persecute me for creating scripts even in bat where everything in bat can be seen when they are clueless to what is going on. Im trying to make an easy solution to the problems that nobody here knows how to solve
@echo off

am i doing right?

Just left BT but i've been charged.

I've been with BT on a 12 month renewable contract for free evening & weekend calls last few years now. I have just recently cancelled my contract to go to SKY.
My contract was up for renewal in January.
I have been charged £15.25 for cancelling
£10.35 for cancelling unlimited evening & weekend calls.
I originally paid up front for my yearly line rental saver. I was told that I wouldn't be charged anything as I was in my 2nd year of my renewable contract.
Is what I have been charged correct?

I am transferring data from Mac to Mac it says I have 30 minutes left but that message has been there for a day. What should I do

I am transferring data from Mac to Mac. Message says 30 minutes left but has said that since yesterday. What do I do?

How are you transferring the data? Migration Assistant? How do you have the computers connected (wifi, Ethernet hub, FireWire, etc.)?
You may want to cancel the transfer and just see what data was transferred. You can always begin again if not all data has been transferred.

DW CS3 site has pages shifting left & right

I've updated part of my website using DW CS3, which I'm new
to. The site works fine other than some of the pages jump a little
to the left and some jump to the right. Pages float in the middle
of the screen and margins and paddings are set to '0' and all pages
are controlled by a stylesheet. To view site, go to
www.wedobrochures.com . I've checked everything I could think of
with no luck. Some of the pages were made from scratch and some
from a template, but that may not be significant.
Any ideas?
David

Add this to your CSS -
html, body { min-height:101%; margin-bottom:1px; }
That will force a scrollbar on all pages.

My iPad is a 16 GB, it says I have 0 space left even after I erase all my pictures, music, games, and other unnecessary apps. It will not let me download anything. This doesnt make any sense??

I use my iPad for school and I only have a few apps on there. I have zero pictures/videos. 2 textbooks that dont take up the whole storage space so that isnt the problem. I have no music. When I go into usage in settings, it says 0 bytes available and says my photos and camera are taking up a considerably large amount of space. What gives?

How much space is Other using? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

My Macbook pro keeps shutting down right after I log in. The power cord seems to be fine, so I think the computer has enough power. Right after logging in, it shows a grey background with a loading bar that loads only 1/4. Then it shuts down.

I have had my Macbook Pro since 2011 and it has been great until now. Suddenly, I can no longer get past the grey screen just after I log in. The grey screen appears with a loading bar, and the bar get 1/4 of the way complete, then the computer shuts off. My power cord seems to be working fine because this problem still occurred after using another power cord (from another Macbook). Keyboard does not light up, and the small green lights on the left side of the computer do not light up (this is an older version and these light indicate how charged the computer is). It is using the OS X Yosemite and recently had total clearing of the hard drive as it was transferring from one owner to another, so the hard drive isn't nearly full enough to be causing this problem. I've never run into this problem before with other Macbooks.
Help!

Hi. When you were in the recovery drive doing permissions, did you try and run a repair of the boot drive? Did you try single user mode? Try these first and then go back and try to reinstall the operating system.When I say repair boot drive I don't mean permissions. There are both options in disk utilities.When you open disk utilities ,you will see in the left column two drives plus possibly a boot partition that look like an external driv. click on the second drive and in first aid use repair disk. If you still can't boot and it will not let you restore, you may have to do a clean install. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18869?viewlocale=en_US

Edit TableCell in TableView right after it has been added to the data list

Hi all
I'm trying to make my table view editable by keyboard. So far I can edit the currently selected cell with a press of 'E'. That works without any problems:
table.edit(selectedRow, tableColumns.get(0));Now I want to add functionality for adding a new row with the press of 'N'. So when pressing 'N' I add a new Object to my data list and try to get into editing mode the same way I do it when pressing 'E', but it won't work.
My first try was like this:
data.add(new Task("", "0"));
table.edit(data.size() - 1, tableColumns.get(0));The new row gets created but I won't get the edit text field. That's why I tried to focus and select the newly created cell. The focus and selection work, but I won't get an edit field.
int lastRow = data.size() - 1;
data.add(new Task("", "0"));
table.getFocusModel().focus(lastRow);
table.getSelectionModel().select(lastRow, tableColumns.get(0));
table.edit(lastRow, tableColumns.get(0));It may have something to do with the fact that the new row just got inserted... I don't know :/
I'd appreciate some hints on this :)
Thx

Does the video no longer show up under the Photos tab? You should be able to edit it there. You can't edit within albums.

How to avoid lines left behind after effects have been flattened in CS6?

We work in a packaging environment using MAC OS 10.6.8 using Illustrator CS6.
In order to ouput Illustrator files correctly through a RIP, we expand all effects (shadow, glows, etc) before converting them to a Hi Resolution PDF to impose for output.
What we have started to see is lines starting to show up on the PDFs (and the Printing Plates too) where the bounding box of the effect used to be. We have seen lines show up in earler versions of Illustrator but not to the number or thickness they seem to be in CS6.
Is there any way to avoid these lines from showing up (and being printed)? What methods do other people use to get around this issue?
Any suggestions would be most helpful.
Many Thanks
Andrew

So we have been working through the above issue....
Problem:
1) This problem started because Illustrator Effects wont print through our RIP unless they are flattened first.
2) The issue is further complicated by the fact that most of the effects involve spot colours (either directly or under the effect)
3) The RIP will only read PDFs saved in PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4). Yes, we have checked with the supplier and it IS up to date!
4) When sending PDFs through our RIP from Illustrator CS6 we get white bounding boxes around spot color effects and keylines around CMYK objects.
5) These line and boxes are visible on the PDF and print on the plate.
Solution:
1) Work the file in the usual manner then split the file into 2 (or more) layers. The top layer for elements/objects/type that have NO effect on it that you wish to remain in vector format (or that can be editable at a later date). The bottom layer for ALL other items with effects applied and any items that will be modified by above effects (items below shadows or glows etc).
2) Save a PDF copy of the Bottom layer as PDF version 1.7 to maximise compatibility. Keep the other settings as you would normally use for Hi Res or custom output.
3) Split you PDF in the CMYK and seperate Spot colours. (We used Prinect PDF Toolbox to remove unwanted colours).
4) You will also need to convert all spot collours to a sigle process colour (ie we use Black) this can also be done through Prinect PDF Toolbox. If this is not done, the colour will split into CMYK at the next stage.
5) Open all of you now modified PDF files in Photoshop (the CMYK with the Spot colours removed and the Spots with all the CMYK removed)
6) Drag your spot files into the CMYK version (from the Layers Pallete). You will then need to duplicate the Black Channels and save them as Spot Channels (let me know if you need help to do this) then remove the original black layers.
7) Save this new file as a Photoshop PSD file.
8) Place this new PSD in the you Illustrator file in the same position as the layer that you originally saved as a PDF. You can now hide the original export layer.
9) Output the File as a PDF 1.3 (Acrobat 4) in your usual Hi Res method. (We do this through InDesign so that we can include our custom Slug information).
10) The RIP will now not have to process each of the Effects, just 1 single Photoshop PSD in the background of each file.
I know this is more of a work-around than a solution the the problem... but it's the only thing we know of that guarentees a succsessful result every time.
If anybody reading this knows of any other solutions, please let us know.
Many thanks
Andrew

Macbook Pro shuts down with 40% battery left... does not just go to sleep

Hi,
Our MacBook Pro has started to shut down with about 40% battery left. After it has shut down, I press the button underneath the computer and 2 our of 5 lights light up on the battery. I wouldn't mind if it just went to sleep but I totally have to restart it and lose everything I have been working on when it died. The computer used to go to sleep when the battery got to 0%, then I could plug it in and keep working.
I don't know if it's a software issue or a battery issue or a firmware issue.
Any tips would be MUCH appreciated.
Thanks a lot.

I have read so many articles across the internet with people experiencing this problem. This is the conclusion I came to.
I could not calibrate my battery as my system would hard power down before it got anywhere close to draining the battery entirely. The last 10 cycles on my battery were attempts at calibrating. The most common cause would be because the battery in our macbook pro does contain something close to the charge being reported by the computer, but cannot deliver it. Your fuel gauge is probably not incorrect, especially when the leds on the battery itself show a charge that should be capable of running the machine. Even if it is not calibrated correctly. The internal resistance of the battery itself has compromised the batteries ability to deliver the amperage necessary to run our machines. After finally realizing this, I turned my screen brightness all the way down, and sat all my power settings to max battery life without allowing the machine to go asleep. Then, I went to sleep myself =). In the morning it appeared as though I had a successful calibration and the machine did not power down hard. Depending on how bad of shape your battery is in, this may or may not work. Either way, it didn't matter much. Even with my fuel gauge being correct, if my screen brightness was cranked up and I was doing anything somewhat processor intensive, my battery failed to provide the needed amperage and powered down my system hard again.
The battery really does have the amount of power it says, it just cannot deliver it as fast as needed. At a slower rate, it will work. A replacement battery is needed. I cannot explain the strange jumps/dips in storage capacity but would guess these numbers are a guide, and more than one environmental factor can change this number. Also, once the internal resistance builds up inside the battery and the inability to calibrate happens, it compunds the problem.
My machine is a first gen intel macbook pro. A few months after I bought it, I had battery problems and apple replaced my battery. My machine is 31 months old, it's battery is somewhere around 27. I tried to get apple to replace my battery and they told me no. I was 40% healthy @ 207 cycles. Many people complain about this but it seems reasonable to me, I didn't argue. I do believe my battery failed prematurely, however, it was due to a few factors and I do not think it was the batteries fault. My machine was one of those nice overheating first generation macbook pros. To make the matter worse, one of my internal fans stopped working. I knew this as my istat pro program showed me 1 fan @ zero rpm. I figured I had applecare and had work to do, so continued to use the computer for several months. I did quite a bit of video encoding and processor intensive work. When I would get to work in the morning, my granite desktop was really cold, however, after a half hour or so with the macbook pro running the heat would dissipate through it and warm it up nice and comfortable! lol, some may not think this is funny, but it worked well for me. I frequently had over 180 degree cpu temps and the bar above the keyboard being too hot to lay your hand on and keep it there. I am sure some of this excess heat contributed to the premature failure of my battery. The type of batteries in our machines are killed by heat, charge amount, cycles and age. Probably in that order for most users. So, can I blame apple because my unit ran hotter than it should have because their fan failed! eh, maybe, but I am happy with this laptop overall. I have never had a single laptop for more than 15 months and have had this one for over 30 now.
I ran across this site somewhere, it may have been another user on these forums, I cannot remember. http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-19.htm On this page, it talks about our batteries, the effects of heat and level of charge in combination with age. At 77 degrees F., charged to 100% (which is very typical of our machines, or close to it) after one year the battery is 80% as good as it was when it was new. At 32 degrees it is as 94% as good as new after one year. Jump up to 104 F. and the battery is only 65% as good as new after 1 year. Sometimes my computer is running for days and sometimes the environment is warm. Add that to the heat produced by the machine itself and I bet the battery sustained 100 degree temperatures for long periods of time. Just for fun, at 140 degrees and 100% charge in our lithium ion batteries, after only 3 months the capacity is only 60% of its new capacity.
Anyways, that is my battery story. Sum up. The inability to calibrate is due to the batteries increased internal resistance and inability to deliver the charge at a rate needed by your computer even though it appears healthy, or somewhat healthy. You may be able to calibrate by making your laptop drain less power, turn screen brightness all the way down, turn airport & bluetooth off, let hard disk sleep, and let it go. But that will not stop the hard shut down problem, although the fuel gauge will be more accurate. Think of it like this. a 100 gallon fuel tank on a car full of gas. The fuel gauge is correct, it is full. However, the fuel line connecting the fuel tank to the engine is made of a space age material that shrinks as it ages and is exposed to heat. Eventually the fuel line shrinks to the size of a coffee stirrer or small straw. When the motor is turned off the fuel seeps into the small straw. Start the motor, it begins to sip the fuel from the straw. Rev it up (encode video), the motor demands more gas but cannot get it. The motor stalls out (your computer shuts off). Same idea somewhat. Sorry so long

IPhone 5 shuts down after having 36% battery left.

Okay so I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 6.1
I haven't had this problem at all until updating to 6.1
Everytime my phone hits 36% battery, it shuts down.
It is not jailbroken either.
When I try turning it on, the charging idicator turns on and that's when I need to plug it back in.
IT HAS 36% battery left! Why is it shutting down!?
I called Apple and they couldn't explain the problem to me and wanted to charge me $49.99?
Ridiculous!
I HAVE TRIED restoring it 3 times. 2 times I used backup and the 3rd time I set it as a new iPhone.
Still having the issue.. Please help me?

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

My ipod will only register with itunes after restarting my laptop, after that it just charges.

I just got a new Lenovo laptop. When I plug my ipod in, it only registers with iTunes right after the computer has been turned on or restarted. After that the ipod just charges. I can find the ipod listed when I go to my control panel and click on my devices and printers section. There is an exclamation point next to it and it says status: Driver error. I've tried installing a new driver but it says mine is up to date. When I click on the device and go into hardware I can find another spot that says device status and a message box. In the box it says:
Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38)
The driver could not be loaded because a previous version of the driver is still in memory.
After I restart laptop the ipod is reconized by iTunes when I plug it in and I can update it. When I go to the device in the control panel I get none of the messages about driver error. However, as soon I disconnect the ipod it all happens the next time I connect it unless I have restarted the laptop.
What can I do to make my iTunes register my ipod whenever I plug it in, and not just when I restart?
