Major Problem Here! I have no idea what to do and need help with OSX
Hello all, thanks for viewing my topic.
First of all, I have OSX 10.2.8
I just got a christmas gift - an Ipod Nano
I went into my Itunes only to find out that I need Itunes 7.0, but when I went to download it from the site, after running the install, it said I needed OSX 10.3.4
So, I looked over and over for 10.3.4 only finding I needed 10.3 to run that
So basically, i'm stuck here. Can I not use my Christmas gift? What do I have to do to get either the newest version of OSX to work with Itunes, or get my new Ipod 4G nano to work with my Itunes. Either solution would be great.
Thanks
Welcome To Discussions CJAAA!
Some additional information.
Mac OS X Versions 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, are complete system upgrades that must be purchased.
The point upgrades, such as 10.1.x to 10.1.5 (Final) 10.2.x to 10.2.8 (Final), 10.3.x to 10.3.9 (Final), and 10.4.x to 10.4.8 (Pending), can be downloaded for free.
Tiger is available for purchase at The Apple Store (U.S.).
Panther, is no longer available directly from the Apple Online Store, as Tiger 10.4.x is the most up to date OS.
If you know what to look for, a Full Retail Version, of the Panther Install CDs, or a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, can also be purchased rather inexpensively, at some online Apple retailers, Amazon, eBay, AppleRescue, FastMac, etc.
Be sure not to purchase grey, upgrade or machine specific CDs or DVDs.
Panther is only on CDs, not DVDs.
The discs must look exactly like the images in the above links.
Additional info in these links.

Software Update, Upgrade: What's The Difference?
Once Panther 10.3.x is installed, you can use the 10.3.9 Combo Update, to upgrade to the final version.
If your Mac meets the System Requirements for Tiger, you could also consider installing that.
And then use the PPC 10.4.8 Combo Update, to upgrade to the current version.

Additionally,
"Tiger ships on a DVD, but if your Mac doesn’t have a built-in DVD-ROM player, you’ll need CD media. When you buy Mac OS X Tiger, you qualify to purchase Tiger CDs for only $9.95."
Download The Order Form Here. Media Exchange Program
Orders must be mailed by March 19, 2007
AppleRescue, also sells a Tiger installation set on CD
Shop Carefully, Examine All Documentation, And Good Luck!

Sorry didn't know that the first step was just supposed to be "subject".
So here it is again.
"I am transfering my stuff from my lap top to my desk top (both Mac). I cannot get my CS4 to open. It gives me a 150:30 error, licencing thing. I have no idea what to do and after hours of searching none of what I found helps. I don't know anything about this stuff so please don't answer with "maybe this willl work, or maybe that." I need a real answer please and I cannot find a way to actually contact Adobe. I also don't have a disk drive on this Mac. Thanks"
Also please feel free to e-mail the answer because I hate looking for these answers online. It takes me forever to find this section. Not that I have even even gotten a real answer.
[email protected]Hi Sonia,
While transferring Adobe from laptop to PC the licensing files got corrupt and the right way to use Adobe Applications is to install first as transferring from a different machine can give you problems.
You can try steps from this article if that helps otherwise you have to reinstall and manually delete some files , everything is mentioned.

this morning i tried to restore my ipod and it said:"the ipod "ipod cannot be restored at this time because the ipod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavalible." i have no idea what to do and i need help.
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -

Pages created a random password for my document on my iPad. I have no idea what it is and I can't open my document. HELP!!!
How old is your son?
Under the Spanner in Pages there is Set Password where you create a password with hint. You really have to deliberately dig this out to do it.
Do you get a hint when you are asked for the password?
The Password is very secure, if you can't remember what it is, you will have to recreate the document.

My Documents and Data on my phone are taking up half of my storage! I have no idea what my documents and data are?! Please help! I need to reduce it

i need to free storage on my phone,
because you want to put more Documents & Data on it.
Make sure you sync photos to computer then delete from Camera Roll. (Camera Roll photos are part of Documents & Data).
Delete some apps on the iPhone.
Then Restore iPhone in iTunes. -
well i set a passcode on my iphone 4 and ive forgotten it i have no idea what to do and i only just got this phone plus i dont want to do these bypassing with emergancy call just in case i get it wrong plz help (urgent)
If you set the phone to erase on 10 failed passcodes - then just keep typing and it will wipe itself.
Otherwise I believe you can set it to recovery mode and restore etc.. via iTunes... There is no easy way as the passcode is designed to protect the phone exactly against what you are trying to do now...

I have had to replace the HDD and need to reinstall OSX.
I have had to replace the HDD and need to reinstall OSX but cannot find disc that came with the unit, does anyone know where I can get them from or download if possible?
James[email protected] wrote:
Just how do you do an internet recovery on a system that has a blank HDD with no operating system that the unit cannot boot from????
If your Mac came preinstalled with Lion or Mountain Lion after you install your new blank HDD, restart the Mac while pressing/holding the COMMAND+OPTION+R keys until you see a spinning globe. Make sure you have an Internet connection (WiFi or Ethernet). This will boot into Apple's Recovery HD servers and present you with the OS X Utilities Menu. From there you can select Disk Utility to format your new HDD and then reinstall Mac OS X for the OS that was preinstalled.
Internet Recovery doesn't care if you have an unformated HDD because it boots over the Internet to Apple's servers, not your HDD. -
Please Help me. I am having problems with my MATSHITA UJ-857E DVD-R burner/writer. I burned 4 cd's and then it stopped working.
I can select my songs, and then it asks for a blank disc. It starts preparing to write the disc,then it says,"
The drive reported an error: Sense Key= HARDWARE ERROR Sense Code= 0x09,0x01 TRACKING SERVO FAILURE.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to fix it or what this means because I have no idea what it is talking about or how to begin to fix the problem?tanyafrombakersfield wrote:

This is an error reported by the optical drive's firmware. The tracking servo is the servomechanism which guides the laser pickup along the track on the optical disc. The error means that the servo couldn't do its job within the programmed parameters. What it doesn't say is why.
You have to be very precise as to when this error occurs. If it occurs as you wrote, while it "starts preparing to write the disc", and not when it has actually began to burn, then it's likely that the drive has gone bad and needs to be replaced.
There are other possibilities, so you should check them, but they would be more likely if the error occurred after the drive began to write. OrangeMarlin has suggested two options -- try a different brand of CD or DVD, and try cleaning the lens. -
Every morning at 8:00 am there is a loud page-turning sound from my iPhone 5s. I have no idea what is causing it and it can be quite startling earlhy in the morning if you are alone. Any one have any idea what it could be?
If it goes off at 8am every morning, then you have probably set the alarm without realising it.
Check the alarm and turn it off. -
Have no idea what is happening...help!!!
I must start by saying that I plugged in my iPod before I installed iTunes :S it's not syncd, so I can't put music or do anything other than just charging it! The only thing that says it's "register your iPod", I click "continue", get to the "iPod software license agreement" page and check the box with "have read and agree" but then nothing happens!
Do any of you have an idea about what must be done? Would really appreciate it
Thanks in advancewell...I said there is one and I clicked on it but that's as far as it gets and nothing else is happening...
I am well aware of that, but there may be another one after agreeing to the terms and conditions. Again try changing your screen's resolution to see if that makes a difference because several users in this same situation where able to locate the Continue button after adjusting their screen's resolution.

my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.
Hi Shelady,
Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

New here and need help with FX1 and FCE
Hey all -
I shot a lot of video this last summer on a Sony FX1 in HDV. I am capturing the video using FCE. I have my Easy set up for HD, 29.97, and HDV - AIC 1080i60.
I am in the US not using PAL.
I can capture the video fine, and export to quicktime fine. I get what seems is good video capture with the following problem:
My video looks fine in the view finder but once captured, it is desaturated and lacks any color.
I do not know much else about FCE. I do not want to do much editing, just grabbing and creating some .mov files for sharing. I just want to see better color.
Questions then...
1. How to boost color?
2. How to color correct for neutral density?
3. What size is best to save as largest size and quality?
I am viewing on a color corrected Apple Cinema Display 23" that I use to edit my photos and use Monaco Optix XR Pro with ColorEyes Pro.
Thanks.
RandalKeep in mind that computer displays will not have the same gamma and color space of NTSC or ATSC television.
