Kiss 1600 "dead" ... or not ... help how to reprogram EPROM :)
Hi people. My KISS 1600 "died" a week ago. I took it to repair and only the PSU had a few capacitors needed to replace (were burned). So far, so good, but when I plugged in kiss 1600, the front display keeps lights on, all lights on, no exception and no "boot" message appears.
I believe EPROM chip info was erased after using the player before he was highly damaged. I would update the firmware again, but i can't read it from cdrom (nothing happens when I plug in the player... only front panel lights up fully).
I was wondering if anybody knows to reprogram EPROMs ... or to access EPROM information from a PC to reprogram with the original firmware or any other ideas. I think it's a excellent player and I wouldn't like to throw it away. People... all ideas are welcome.
Thankx

Dead links - not another "how to remove them" thread
I know this question has been answered a few times but the question is not a "how to remove them" or "what do they mean" question.
I would like to know how this happens other than changing the file directory or information outside of iTunes. Here is a couple things I could think of that I would like some input on.
1. All of my songs that have a ! by them were downloaded off of the internet for free (no shareware, just an actual web site).
2. These songs were already in mp3 format prior to importing them.
3. I made a copy of my iTunes folder on another harddrive, but still run iTunes from the orginal drive.
4. Since I have 2 copies of iTunes song files, I deleted the original source of these files in My Music, which were in WMA format.
Again, I did not change the file information to any of these songs. Any help would be great! Thanks!Thanks for the information.
This is where you created the '!' links:
"I have 2 harddrive in my PC. "C" is my main drive and "D" is my backup drive. iTunes stores everything on my C drive. I copied this iTunes folder (including songs, playlist info, etc) and pasted it on my D drive."
iTunes operates as a database of information for your music files. The actual music files are stored on your PC, not within iTunes. iTunes keeps absolute references of the music file location and other information in its database file. This allows iTunes to use music files from any location on the PC: different directories/folders on the main HD, another internal drive, an external drive, or a network drive (or any combination of the above). Each song reference has a specific and hardcoded path so iTunes can find and play (or sync) it. Move the file, change the path, re-map the drive it is on, and iTunes will lose the file (giving you the '!' of a ‘Broken Link’). Lose, move or corrupt the ‘iTunes Music.itl’ file and your complete Library will ‘vanish’.
Changing (or designating) the 'iTunes Music folder' location in the Preferences does not instruct iTunes where to look for existing songs it currently knows about. It directs iTunes where to store any new songs it Imports, or 'Adds' and copies to its Library organization (if that attribute is selected). This is an important distinction.
You can do one of two things:
1) Move all the files back to the C: drive where the iTunes program expect them to be, and then move them to the D: drive using iTunes
OR
2) Delete all the broken song references within iTunes and Rebuild the Library
The first method will preserve your Library information: Playlists, Ratings, Last Played, Play Count. The second method will lose these attributes.
Song attributes stored directly in each music file are as follows: Artist, Album, Song Title, Year, Comments, Compilation tag, Lyrics, Genre , Grouping, Composer, BPM, Album Artwork, Bit Rate & Kind (Both not tags - inherent to the file itself). You will not lose any of these attributes regardless of the method used to recover your Library.
Either method should be relatively easy to accomplish as long as you can maintain some control over the file moving (it's not rocket science). If your C: drive cannot accept the temporary move of your files, you may be stuck with option 2. If you do not have many important playlists, or care about ratings, playcounts, etc., then option 2 is a bit easier.
Post back with more questions...or with your 'choice'. We'll go from there. -
iphone 3gs is dead and not responding for DFU restore also. getting errors like 1600,1601 etc., any help?
Mikey, I have the exact same problem. Dropped my 3gs on Thanksgiving, phone was not responsive, plugged into the wall charger, went to grey iPhone restore screen, then said to connect to itunes. So I plugged it into itunes but itunes wont recognize it nor will my computer. I searched the internet for hours with no success. I tried to change USB ports and cords, tired removing the SIM card, reinstalled itunes, everything. When I put it in DFU mode itunes recognizes an iphone in recovery mode, so I click restore and update, then I get error 1602 every time. My iPhone also loses power when I unplug it from the wall. I do not know what to try next. You are the only person I have found with the same exact problem I have. I will update you if I find a way to get my phone working again and I hope you will do the same. I'm very frustrated

I need to authorize an new computer but I am at the limit of five and can't deauthorize from old computers as they are either dead or not in my procession. How do I deauthorize all computers so that I can authorize my new computer?
The page Roger posted is good but was very confusing for me. I'll try to help you out since that article was confusing to me.
In iTunes, Click your name/email that is directly to the left of the search bar.
Click account info.
Sign in.
Click this button where the mouse is:
(the screenshot is from an older iTunes on windows, but it is the same on the new versions)
Done!
You can only use that button once per year, so try to remember to deauthorize computers before you get rid of them. -
my bluetooth says 'Not Available' how do i get it to work again. I have restarted the computer several times and have replaced the batteries in both the keyboard and mouse and yet it still is not working! please help
I have had the same problem. It was cured by turning computer off and/or restarting it. I am not sure if once was enough. I think shutting down must cut out whatever it is that blocks bluetooth. Good luck

My iPhoto app was digressed back to 9.5, not sure how I did it. I went to time machine and restored. Now it wont accept my password. tells me it is locked. Can anyone help me?
Run Repair Permissions in Disk Utility and see if that helps.
If not, you can select the iPhoto Library in your Pictures folder, go File > Get Info (or Command-i), go to the bottom of the info window and set your permissions to Read & Write. On the Action menu at the bottom (the one with the gear) choose Apply to enclosed items... -

My iPod touch was stolen and recovered. I can use my Apple id for this site but the theif changed the Apple id needed to update apps etc and I do not know how to delete his acct. Any help with this will be greatly appreciate
If the thief enabled activation lock on the device, then there is nothing that can be done. Only the password for the Apple ID that it is locked with can disable activation lock.

How do I delete and stop all of the unwanted 702 emails that are coming into my acct on my iPad. Sure there are more coming now.
Frontier will not help unless I agree to a costly protection. Apple says I have to have their extra contract or pay for a one-time fee.
I cannot use my acct on my iPad this way.Not something I would suspect Apple could help with. The most obvious solution is to,change your email address. You might also check with your email provider and see if there an any anti-spam settings on the server that would help.

Trying to install MS Office 2011 for Mac SP 2 (14.2.0) on my Macbook Air (Lion 10.7.3). I have to close Microsoft Database Daemon and SyncServicesAgent but can not see how to do so. I have closed all applications. Can anyone help? Many thanks
Thanks Kurt! I had tried all that and had tried closing both programmes from the application monitor, but SyncServices Agent refused to close. I tried closing Launchd which is their mother application, but that just caused the screen go go blank. In the end the two programmes let themselves be closed next time I tried the installation process so all was well. Thanks for your help!

I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.
Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere. -
How do you connect a lexmark x6570 printer to an iMac wirelessly? The basic user manuals are not helpful as the printer is not showing up when using the add printer function. I my printer is working fine wirelessly with my windows laptop so it appears to be functioning fine. This is my first time using an Apple at home...
Thank you.Hello,
I am using a Mac with this router. Any ideas how I can set it up to print wireless. Im not a tech person so this gets confusing for me sometimes.
Thanks! -
I have an Ipod touch version 4.2.1 and the instructions do not detail how to update to iOS 5. Can you help me with step by step instructions.
iOS 4.2.1 suggests that you may have 2nd generation Touch, which cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1
Check http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 for help in identifying your model. A quicker method may be to check the back casing. If your iPod has Model No.A 1288 etched into it, then it's a 2nd gen Touch.
Assuming that you are using the latest version of iTunes (today, that is 10.6.3), to check if your iPod can be updated, connect it to your iTunes and look on the Device/Summary pane. Select Check for Updates. If there is one, you will see a message telling you that and how to install it. However, if you see a message saying that your iPod is up-to-date, then it cannot be updated.
