Let's see who can figure this out =]

Okay,
I have a broken ipod 4G 20GB model. It displays a sick icon. It will not go into diagnostics mode. It is not seen by itunes or my PC (windows xp OS). When it is plugged in the charge icon shows up, but it does not move.
So basically I can't do anything to it with my computer or with the buttons on the ipod, so I think I will have to take it apart to fix it, as I'm not going to send it back as the warranty is over.
I don't mind erasing everything on it, and I would if I knew how to, and I will try just about anything so I can make it atleast an external hard drive.
If anyone knows what I should do once I take it apart, what part is most likely wrong with it, if they know some way to fix it, or have any questions... please post =].
Thanks for your help.

I have fixed it!!!
I was in the middle of prying open the case and the Ipod flew out of my hands and landed on the concrete floor, and then I looked at it and it had turned on. The hard drive was humming but I turned it on and off and it fixed.
If your ipod is broken just smash it on the floor... Apple add that onto your repair checks =D. (I'm not responsible if it doesn't work for you)
Thanks for all of your replies (sarcasm ^^)

?!?! See who can figure this one out first...

ok, so this has been happening on and off for the past 3 months, just curious if anyone else has had this happen as well.
so im working in Logic (this happened in 7 and now 8 as well) and i get done with my session and im going to close logic for a bit. so i quit the program. the logic screens go away and its still thinking for a sec before it completely quits out. as soon as it completely quits, they grey screen of death starts making its way down my monitor. it ONLY happens when quitting logic, and not all the time, just whenever it feels like it i guess.
any thoughts?
just for the record, ive RTFM and it says nothing about this
thanks

I used to get this with Digital Performer a few years ago every time I quit on my G5. I ended up reinstalling the OS and all programs from scratch and the problem NEVER came back. My assumption was that somehow a combination of drivers/libraries must have become corrupt. I did try repairing permissions and nothing seemed to fix it.
I know it's a lot of work, but maybe you could test by using an external drive to boot off of that has a clean install with logic and trying running it for awhile with the same projects and see if it ever happens again.

I Paid For 3 Years Of Apple Care And Nobody Can Figure This Out...

http://vimeo.com/10417687
This is what my monitor started doing within a few weeks of owning it. I'm going on 2.5 years now. Just had a tech come to my house for about 4 hours trying to figure it out. Apple wants nothing to do with it. I've called them many times and have always been told to call them back and never get beyond that. Apple looked at this video I posted and maybe got scared? lol. I have no idea. I think they should just get rid of the problem already as I work at home and have lost allot of $ because of this issue.
Why can't anything be done?

Hey, Apple.
Please do the right thing here and help out. 2.5years of this! With Apple "Care". Why do you keep talking with me on the phone telling me you'll look into it and then never getting back to me? Every time I call you guys tell me the exact same thing and nothing gets done.
I have the calls recorded on Skype. Do I have to make them public on youtube along with this situation in order to get anywhere?
Please give me the service I paid for.

If you can figure this out, I will pay $100,000,000!!!

The answer is both easy and frustrating.
First the easy part.
1. Add the videos to iTunes on the Mac (you did say from Mac to PC)
2. If the video is a Music video, set the flag appropriately
3. Tell iTunes on the Mac to share its iTunes library over the network
4. Make sure either you share the entire library, or a playlist that includes the video(s)
5. Set the PC to look for shared libraries on the network
The above is probably obvious and you have probably done this. The next bit is to address the cause of the problem.
First, I have various music videos acquired from different sources. Some from the iTunes Store before they started charging for them, some from other sites on the Internet. All are in QuickTime compatible format and hence all play locally in iTunes. However most of them do not work when I try and access them via iTunes Sharing.
Now I had a strong idea what the cause was but here are possible causes that could be considered
1. Its the wrong format (even if it can be played locally), i.e. not MPEG4 or H.264
2. Its the wrong pixel size or bit rate
3. It did not have the "Music Video" flag set
4. Its too long in duration or file size
5. It has not been prepared for streaming
To put you out of your misery it appears to be number 5. Now I had already suspected this because I had previously seen reports that FrontRow (on a Mac) had problems playing videos from another Mac if the video had not been prepared for streaming.
I have found two reasonably easy ways to convert videos so they are prepared for streaming.
1. If you have QuickTime Pro (for Mac or Windows) you can export the video using the QuickTime Player and in options in the export dialog box, set it to enable the streaming option.
2. If you select the video in iTunes itself, you can tell iTunes to convert it to iPod or AppleTV format, this will at the same time also set the streaming option
I tested both methods using a video that previously would not work between Mac and Windows iTunes sharing and both these solutions worked. This was tested using iTunes 7.4.2 on Mac OS X 10.4.10 and iTunes 7.4.2 on Windows XP Pro.
I look forward to receiving your cheque for $100,000,000

$5 to anyone that can figure this out

Under Podcasts in Front Row - it shows ones that I deleted YEARS ago from an older Mac that I migrated to this one. I have searched through Spotlight and everywhere else to find the file with no luck. THe only thing I can figure is it is pulling from an old playlist but can't find that either. Please help!!

Front Row, of course, is totally dependent on your iTunes library. Take a look at the following support article. You may want to try rebuilding your iTunes library and see if that fixes your issue.

Let's see who can help with this applet

Hello. I am new in Java and confused with this assignment.
I have to write an applet for a store that sells 8 products
whose retails prices are Product 1 - $2.98, Product 2 - $4.50, Product 3 - $9.98, Product 4 - $ 4.49, Product 5 - $ 6.87,
Product 6 � $ 12.37, Product 7 - $ 14.30 and Product 8 - $ 11.40.
The applet: 1) Has an intro message to a store named for you, where you describe what products they have, 2) Reads a series of pairs of numbers: Product Number and Quantity Number.
Use a switch structure to determine the retail prices for each product. Use "TextField" to obtain the product number from the user. Use a �sentinel controlled� loop to determine when the program should stop looping to display the final result (I used number -1 as sentinel). Display the total value of all products sold.
This is the program I wrote:
//java core packages
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.text.NumberFormat;
import java.util.Locale;
// Java extension packages
import javax.swing.*;
public class MYSHOP extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
// GUI componentes
JLabel productNumLabel, quantityNumLabel;
JTextField productNumField, quantityNumField;
// variables
double subtotal = 0;
double total = 0;
public void init()
// display intro message
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null, "Welcome toablabla.\nWe
offer you blablabla\nClick OK to start shoping",
"Company information", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE );
// obtain content pane and set its layout to FlowLayout
Container container = getContentPane();
container.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
// create productNumLabel, productNumField and attach them to
// content pane
productNumLabel = new JLabel( "Enter Product Number (-1 to
quit):" );
productNumField = new JTextField( 4 );
productNumField.addActionListener( this );
container.add( productNumLabel );
container.add( productNumField );
// create productNumLabel, productNumField and attach them to
// content pane
quantityNumLabel = new JLabel("Enter Quantity:");
quantityNumField = new JTextField( 4 );
quantityNumField.addActionListener( this );
container.add( quantityNumLabel );
container.add( quantityNumField );
} // end method init
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent actionEvent )
int index = Integer.parseInt( productNumField.getText() );
int ammount = 0;
while ( index != -1 )
NumberFormat moneyFormat =
NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance( Locale.US );
if( actionEvent == quantityNumField.getText() )
ammount = Integer.parseInt( quantityNumField.getText() );
switch (index)
case 1:
subtotal += ( 2.98 * ammount );
break;
case 2:
subtotal += ( 4.5 * ammount );
break;
case 3:
subtotal += ( 9.98 * ammount );
break;
case 4:
subtotal += ( 4.49 * ammount );
break;
case 5:
subtotal += ( 6.87 * ammount );
break;
case 6:
subtotal += ( 12.37 * ammount );
break;
case 7:
subtotal += ( 14.30 * ammount );
break;
case 8:
subtotal += ( 11.40 * ammount );
break;
case -1:showStatus( "The Total is: " + subtotal );
System.exit(0);
break;
default:
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( null,"There is no
such product", "ERROR",
JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
} // end switch structure
} // end while structure
productNumField.setText(""); // clear productNum field
quantityNumField.setText(""); // clear quantityNum field
} // end method actionPerformed
} // end class MYSHOP
When I try to compile it, the error I get is "incomparable types: java.awt.event.ActionEvent and java.lang.String", in the line:
if( actionEvent == quantityNumField.getText() )
The error pointer points to "==" in that line
What should I write in that line instead?
Also, if someone realizes that some part of the code is in the wrong place, please tell me.
Thanks in advance.

Instead of
if( actionEvent == quantityNumField.getText() ) I think you want
if( actionEvent.getSource() == quantityNumField )HTH,

Now I am tired of this Let's see anyone can solve this

Hi all,
I am having some serious trouble with JSP session. And i posted the problem but didn't find any solution.
Now i am posting my code.
The SITUATION IS: i am couple of JSP pages and THEY ARE NOT ALL LINKED TOGETHER. meaning that two of them is linked with sending data to another but the rest of them are just in one application but not connected. BUT in every page there is a separate link for all other pages AND this is not HTML FORM.
Select_Database.JSP

       <%
           String uname=request.getParameter("uname");
            String pass=request.getParameter("passw");
            session.setAttribute("user",uname);
        %>
Update_Para.JSP
para_id=Integer.parseInt(category);
                     String username="";
                     username=(String)session.getAttribute("user");
                     //my new code
                 //File afile = new File(path);
                     BufferedWriter one = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(para_path));
                     one.write(para_data);
                     one.close();
                   out.println("<ul class='bullet'>");
                 out.println("<li><b>Successful Update</b></li><br>");
                 out.println("<br>");
                 out.println("</ul>");LogOff.JSP
<% session.invalidate(); %>
Here are three JSP pages pardon me i got rid of all the webdesign HTML codes for easy understanding.
Now on the select _database.JSP file i am getting the user name and setting in sessions.
Just reminding you all the pages got
<%@page language="java" session="true" %>this on top.
Now after i set the login name as a session value there is no connection between this page and any other page except the HREF links i mentioned above.
On the Update_Para.JSP page as you can see i used that session variable. when they click LOGOFF HREF they are taken to the logoff.JSP and they are the session is killed.
Now on the logoff.jsp page after loggin of if they click login again then they are taken to the login page and they login with a different id and when they goto Update_Para to update paragraph the user stored in JSP as the user logged in when the session was created two weeks ago meaning that that session is still alive after two weeks.
Now i described the problem clearly here, Can anyone please tell me what is the problem. Thanks

This may be caching on the user's browser. The user's browser may hold onto older web pages to make display quicker. This is usually only done for pages that are visited with normal links, rather than forms. The browser will look to see if the page has an expiration data, and then re-query the server if that expiration date has passed. Otherwise it will hold the same page in a cache on your hard-disk and display it from there when requested.
You can try to solve this by forcing your page to expire as soon as it is created. See the following link:

If you can figure this out, you're a genius

I made a short film 3 years ago, still have the MPEG 2 files. Burned fine on Studio Pro 3; now I have 4. Wanted to burn a new copy - tried the old MPEG 2. Around minute 8 the DVD broke up-frozen-dead. Tried another DVD player, same thing. Ok. No big deal. Dusted the tape off the shelf and captured it again. Made an MPEG 2 and burned to DVD. Again. Minute 8 - same thing, frozen, done. Lowered the bit rate from 7.0 to 5.0. Played up to minute 9. Lowered it to 3. Played to minute 11. Lowered it all the way to the bare bones, 2, plays the full 13 minutes and looks horrible. Took a bunch of old clips and made a 20 minute movie test, converted to MPEG 2 7.0 VBR. Plays all the way just fine. So why my movie? Is it that bad? Calling all geniuses. -ed

Thanks for responding. The 3 year old files were made back in the day when QT could export MPEG 2's. I used the same settings I always used, target bit rate 6.4ish max bitrate 7.5ish. 2 pass VBR. Best motion. These new MPEG 2's were made with compressor. I tried many different settings but the first one I used was: Average bit rate 6.4, Max Bit Rate 7.6, Motion Estimation BEST. 29.97fps, Bottom Field First, NTSC. I also then used the compressor built in to DVD SP. Those settings were, Field Order AUTO, One Pass VBR (I started running out of time) Bit Rate 5.0, Max Bit Rate 7.0, Motion Estimation Better. It was in DVDSP that I began lowering the Bit Rate until I was able to make a successful and crappy-looking DVD. The final settings were: Field Order AUTO, Mode: ONE PASS VBR, Bit Rate: 2.0, Max Bit Rate: 5.0, Motion Estimation: BETTER. Never used settings this low in my life! Looks like crap. -ed

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

WHY!!!!! I can't figure this out

Why my girlfriend is getting the message that her "remote IP address is invalid" I can't seem to understand or figure this out...

They should turn off Internet Sharing in System Preferences > Sharing if it is On
Are either of you running Internet Sharing? If so, turn it off.
They should not be letting Parallels connect using the Mac's IP if they run Parallels.
Do either of you use Parallels Desktop or VMWare Fusion to run windows on you Mac? If so, turn off their access to the internet in their settings or preferences.
They should not be connected to the Router via wireless (Airport card) and Wired (Ethernet) at the same time.
Are either of you connected to both Ethernet port and Airport wireless at the same time. If so, disable one of the network configurations. Either unplug the cable or turn Airport off.
They should not have two DHCP servers in a modem and router on their LAN.
How are your router and modem configured. If they are both distributing IP addresses, then you need to either set your router to bridge mode or set the modem to assign just one IP address. I don't know what hardware you have, so I can't begin to tell you how to configure either. Unless it is an Airport Base Station, most modems and routers are configured through a Web interface. Airport Utility will let you configure the Airport Base Station.

Can't figure this out- cable connection vs wifi connection

Can't figure this out: when my 13" MBP is connected wirelessly to my Airport base station, my iPad can see it. When I connect the MBP to the base station via ethernet cable (for faster connection), the iPad can no longer see it.
Note: my airport is not connected to the internet. I'm simply wanting to setup a closed network for the iPad to connect to the MBP. There's nothing else on the network. The app on the iPad is locating the MBP by ip address so it must be a permanently assigned number.
Message was edited by: Alan Schmidt

Am having the same problem.
Everything was working fine until yesterday.
Now if I connect my iMac to the Extreme with Ethernet the Airport is not visible and I can't connect to the internet.
iPods and iPhones can still use the wifi to get on the internet.
If I switch the iMac to Airport it works, but, will not work with the Ethernet cable connected.
Have tried changing ethernet cables and still no go.
Can't figure this out.
