Itouch issue on laptop

Hello there.
I have an itouch 1st generation 3.1.3 firmware. My version of itunes is the most recent 9.1.0 64-bit. I've had this itouch forever, got it when the 32 gig's first came out. I've sync'd it with my previous desktop forever as well.
3 weeks ago, I moved onto a laptop, and into South Korea as well. Brought all my music on a hard drive.
Now the issue:
Since using the laptop I cannot use it to sync my music. I've very literally done everything. Reset the itouch to factory, reset all of it to barebones, the 2 hour reset. Uninstalled/reinstalled itunes MANY times. I've tried deauthorizing, reauthorizing. Signed into my itunes account, signed out of it.
I cannot put anything on my iTouch. By dragging and dropping from outisde itunes, to music that is in my itunes library. This problem is very frustrating.
Yes, I have checked sync my music manually!
Please help, if it's possible.
Derek

Welcome to the discussions,
did you consolidate your iTunes library to make sure, that all music is available on your laptop? http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/9.0/en/15329.html
Can you sync music when you deselect the "manual manage music" option?

Itunes photo syncing issues between laptop/ipad

I'm syncing photos on my laptop to my new ipad2 via itunes and randomly in each folder around 10% of the photos always come out corrupted with horizontal lines or even half the picture missing. Have tried reinstalling itunes etc but still get random corruption issues. Have managed to successfully import the photos if I save them to my camera and import via the camera connection kit but don't want to do that for the thousands of photos I have on my laptop. Any ideas?

I have now managed to find the cause of the problem. All down to a conflict issue between itunes and Zonealarm. The solution is to go into program access in Zonealarm and ensure that the iTunes Photo Processor program is set to NO ENFORCEMENT for trust level. An alternative is to temporarily stop Zonealarm, sync and then turn on Zonealarm back on. If you don't do this, a number of the photos (and it appears to be at random) become corrupted. Hope this helps anyone else running Zonealarm.

ITouch issues...

Hey --
I understand that there is a reason Apple doesn't allow for the transfer of songs from the ipod onto a computer... But this is a legit issue & not for music sharing - this is my own music, photos, and videos. Anyway, on to the problem.
I have a 16GB iTouch (I got it when they first came out) and it is currently all updated with the newest software etc. In December I bought a 24" iMac & it is 100% up to date with its software. All of my music used to be on a macbook pro, but I have a time capsule so I transferred all of the files on to there.
So today I moved into a new flat, got the internet hooked up and tried to wirelessly connect the TC to the imac, it didn't work. I got the ethernet cable to hook them up together & I discovered that all of my music was not there I tried to plug in my ipod & was hoping to use a program like PodView BUT I then realized that my ipod is only showing up in itunes. It's not on the desktop or anywhere else in the HD :\
That means (to me) that right now all of my music is located on the itouch... The only way for me to remedy the problem of my ipod not being visible is to restore it to the factory settings. If I do that then I lose all my music.
Also, I tried the jailbreak the itouch but the programs I've tried so far have said that the firmware is not supported.
I'm really bummed out, I have 60GB of music on my ipod and I would really like to have it on my imac so I can continue to expand my library. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Liz

Ohh... So it's supposed to not show up anywhere? The itouch only shows up in itunes.
Unfortunately I don't have my macbook pro any longer I was so sure that when I wiped it clean I moved everything onto the time capsule, everything EXCEPT the music is on there.
I saw some commercial software, I really wish I didn't have to pay $30 to transfer my own music off of my own ipod onto my own computer... I have podview, maybe I've done something wrong with it? I opened it up, and selected import but nothing shows up.
Is there some trick to it?
Thanks for your input guys, it's amazing how something so little like an ipod can get you into semi-breakdown mode haha!

Sudden Internet Sharing Issue From Laptop to Tower

I have a laptop ibook G4 running 10.5.7 that is connected successfully to wifi.
Until yesterday, I was sharing successfully with my G5 tower running 10.4.11.
I restarted my laptop last night and it wouldn't connect. I checked my settings under 'network/airport' and light was green and I got an IP address. I also saw 'network/ethernet' showed green and had a different IP address (not sure it is supposed to do that, but I'd assumed it was the IP address for my tower)
Anyway, I unplugged the ethernet going to the tower and my laptop started working.
Now, as soon as I plug the ethernet cable up, the laptop acts like its not connected.
I turned 'network/ethernet' to off and that makes my laptop work again...
Does this sound normal?
My tower's prefs arent identical since its 10.4.
I'd had both set to sharing/internet/ethernet and it's worked for weeks. I'm not sure what the current problem is a result of. Should my laptop 'network' settings be set for airport only? Or do I need to monkey with the 'ethernet' too? Should both computers be set for 'sharing' with built-in ethernet, or just the laptop?

First update your Mac OS. This issue may have been solve in one of the recent updates.
Second, be sure that the router firmware is up-to-date. This sleeping issue was common when Leopard first came out. Many of us had it and it was resolved by updating router firmware, or replacing old routers. I include myself in that group. The problem disappeared after updating both my routers.
I would also ignore WEP encryption. It takes a few minutes for anyone in range to hack it.
If your router does not support WPA2, then it's too old and you should replace it, killing two birds with one stone, so to speak.
Any router sans WPA2 is simply too old for today's OSs, and Leopard is very demanding when it comes to router security.

Hi i have cooling fan(902) issue. my laptop wont run anymore asking me to ctc you

Hi
i have a problem with my hp notebook. it's only been bought last year. all of a sudden it's says there is a problem with the cooling fan and its (902) . It's not running anymore. pls help me with this issue as i don't have my laptop working for more than 4 days
many thanks
Jamunaa Kaneskaran

That kind of problem requires sending it back to HP if you are under warranty. If not you have to replace the cooling fan, which is a pretty major job. The BIOS will not allow the laptop to boot into Windows if the cooling fan is dead. I can't tell you exactly how to do it because you don't tell us what kind of laptop you have.

Issues with IPSEC-VPN client and Verizon VZ4G LTE network
VERSION 2
Introduction
Core Issue
Resolution
Introduction
This document explains why IPSEC VPN clients don't work on Verizon 4g network.
Core Issue
The Cisco IPSEC VPN client is able to connect to VPN gateways without any issues over the Verizon 4g network. However once connected, the client is not able to pass any traffic at all. The counters on the client indicate that the client is encrypting data however, there are no increments to the decrypt counters. This issue is seen on the entire gamut of windows OSs. One of the deal breakers with the new Verizon 4g network is that the new LG VL600 and Pantech UML290 run a privately routed IP (10.) address that ONLY allows outbound traffic - no inbound traffic can be passed through. This means that if you have a need for remote access to a device, Verizon's new 3G/4G-capable devices will not allow you to access them like you could with a 3G-only modem.
Resolution
Based on suggestions made by Verizons it seems as though the following things need to be attempted:
1. enable Nat-T. For more information regarding nat-traversal please refer to the following documents:
     a. IPSEC over NAT-T on IOS devices
     b. IPSEC over NAT-T on ASA
2. enable IPSEC-over-TCP. For more information regarding enabling IPSEC over TCP please refer to the following documents:
     a. IPSEC over TCP on IOS devices
     b. Enabling IPSEC over TCP on ASA
3. Use Anyconnect rather than IPSEC
4. The other option is to go with the Sprint 4g network instead which apparently does support remote access to applications.

Firmware Issue - Replace Laptop ?

I installed the EFI 1.7 Firmware and had problems booting from the drive.
However, was able to restore from an external drive. Since, been working OK.
Apple has offered to replace laptop, as it is still in the 14 day period.
Trying to decide if the firmware issues discussed in this forum may reappear or are they gone for good ?
Should I replace or do you think the problem is gone for good ?

Personally, I'd take up their offer of a replacement machine.

Apple TV Router 104bits encryption connection issues with laptop

Hi, we have set up a wep-104 encrypted office Wifi (AppleTV with TimeCapsule router) N-band network, WPA2-PSK (AES encryption). Although I set it up as WPA2-PSK, on a wifi sniffer I ran its identified as wep-104 for some reason (104bits, that is).
This wifi has a problem with one of our computers, which uses an external USB wifi adapter, TP-Link TL-WN7200ND USB adapter, and driver version TL-WN7200ND_WHQL_100730 (I also tried TL-WN7200ND_100513). This computer connects to all other wifis I can throw at it, 64 bit and 128 bit with no prpblems, so I know the adapter is not the issue. After inserting the password, the adapter just "thinks" for a while and then just goes back to showing "X" on its icon (the computer is using XP but that is irrelevat I think). The adapter has the latest firmware and drivers. Is it possible to switch AppleTV to a more often used 128bit security (it could be this adapter just can't work with 104bit).
Thanks

Update: if I choose an 8 character password for WEP Transitional security network instead of a 13 character one for WEP/WPA2 Personal, it works. Why is that? thanks

HDMI Issue connecting laptop to HDTV

Hi Guys - I had my laptop connected to my HDTV via HDMI. I had unplugged the HDMI to take the laptop on vacation. It's been awhile since I connected it. Now when I connect the HDMI, I am getting the visual but not the audio on the tv. What am I forgetting or do I need to change a setting on the laptop (Toshiba Satellite C855 S5350)?
Thanks!

I believe that you need to go into your audio settings when the laptop is connected to the TV and change the default audio device from the built-in laptop speakers to the entry marked "HD audio" or something similar.
P.S. The cake is a lie.

Syncing issues post laptop restore. Need some help with getting media back off phone and into itunes again

I recently had to restore my HP laptop. After the restore, i re-installed itunes and can now not get all media on my iphone to re-sync back into itues.. any tips? I have all files backed up from laptop pre-restore, yet cant get this to work. any tips?

If any of your devices are running iOS7 then you need to use iTunes 11.1.1.
Using system restore can confuse the process of adding or removing software. Always use the supplied installer/removal process if possible.
Sometimes it may be necessary to reboot after adding or removing one component before the next can be added or removed.
Manually deleting files or registry entries is likely to make the problem more complicated, not less so, particularly if Windows still things the software is installed.
If an installer still won't complete try starting Windows in safe mode.

Scanning issues to laptop

I have a HP 6520e All in one series printer. I'm trying to scan a document to my laptop. I'm getting the error message no computer found. I do have the printer software loaded on the laptop, so it must be some setting?

Hi,
You may have to start from your computer first:
    Double click printer icon on desktop,
    Select Manage Scan to Computer
    Click Enable -
You can start this automatically with Windows BUT you will get an arror message if you turn on the computer BEFORE the printer.
Regards.

Network manager issues on Laptop

I'm using gnome shell from the testing and gnome-unstable repositories (the Arch way).
I'm having a lot of issues (wireless) with network manager:
1/ Shows home networks at work and work networks at home
2/ Keeps asking for key even though I'm entering the correct one while the same connection through 'nmcli' works just fine
3/ Doesn't show my saved networks and doesn't connect to them automatically. Again, I have to use 'nmcli'
I don't know if these are bugs with network manager or whether I did something wrong in the configuration files. In any case, I've decided to switch to 'wicd'.
However, I used to use 'wicd' on Ubuntu a few years ago and a problem was that I couldn't connect to VPN (which I need at work). This was the only reason I was hanging on to Network Manager. I looked online and this doesn't seem to have changed.
Are there solutions to connect to VPN (PPTP) without network manager. I remember trying the pptpd and kvpnc without much success. There was a plan on the wicd project page to implement PPTP VPN in 2008..does anyone know if this has been done already?

Well you could use wicd to connect to the access points then use vpnc for vpn. You just need to create a config file for vpnc or from the command line. I just did a quick search looks like the gentoo wiki page has a pretty good explanation for vpnc.

Tried to sync my itouch with my laptop and accidentally erased all of my music. HELP! Is there any way to recover my 800 songs?

I attempted to sync my ipod touch with my laptop and accidentally wiped out all of my music! How can I recover my 1000+ songs?!!! PLEASE HELP!

All media should be in the iTunes library on your computer.
Syncing is ONE way from computer to iPhone.
If the media was on your device, but not in your computer, then it's likely gone.
Do you have a backup of your media somewhere else? Like an external drive?
