Major Update Problem - Please Help

Forgive me if this topic has been covered before, but its late here and I don't have time to trawl through the forums.
So, here's the deal. I purchased the iPod Touch software update (the one that lets you use apps) for $12.99 and I was told, after purchase mind you, that all of my songs and playlists would be deleted if I installed the software. The problem is that the playlists only exist on my iPod Touch and I have songs from so many versions of iTunes that I have lost count (my friends and I share songs all the time), therefore if it is all deleted it will be nearly impossible to piece my iPod back together. Is there a way to backup all of my iPod's data with iTunes so I can restore it after the update?

Major Nano Problem - Please Help

I have a 1 GB iPod Nano that worked fine when I got it in May 2006. Now, however I have a major problem. I put my iPod on the computer to charge through USB and when it was finished I could not safely remove. Actually, the iPod was not recognized by my computer or iTunes at all and the screen keeps flashing the apple logo and will not turn off until the battery runs down.
Here is what I did to try and fix. Reset and restore. I also tried to put the iPod in disc mode. When I put in disc mode my computer recognizes the iPod and it is shown in iTunes but when I safely remove, the iPod remains in disc mode and I can't get out of disc mode unless I reset and then I am dealing with the flashing appe logo again.
Could someone please help!
Windows XP

I'm thinking that the nano is the cause of the problem and so i "think" tou showld send it back for the cost of it and buy a new 2 gig one.

10.4.10 Update Problem-- PLEASE HELP!!!

I have a 17" Powerbook 1.33GHz. I just installed the 10.4.10 update. Now the computer wont boot on a power adapter. I had problems after the first update with changing state while the computer was asleep (ac adapter to battery) which would result in black screen and forced a hard reboot. Now when I try to power-up the computer from the restart (or regular reboot) it just doesnt boot. Please help if anyone has any ideas. I dont mind even if there is a way to undo this update.
Jacek

Alright - I think my computer is good again. Here is what I did. I dont know how much of this will actually do anyone any good, but I figured if I listed it all step-by-step, maybe it would do some good to someone.
1) Restarted with AC in. Didnt boot - black screen
2) Restarted with no AC in. Booted up ok. Restarted again (I guess it was a double restart) Booted again alright.
3) Plugged in the AC, computer froze :-\
4) Did a powerbutton hard reboot (5 second hold down)
5) Computer died - I left if at office overnight. (By died i mean wont boot with AC adapter)
6) Computer turned on fine in the AM. Some of my Brother drivers got a little fudged, so I had to reinstall them. Needed a restart (on AC)
7) Didnt restart (black screen)
8) PMU Reset
9) So far so good...

Iphoto update problem-please help

Hi everyone,
everything started trying to look some photos out of a CD (200 JPG files) I was trying to import them to my library but the program crashed or stopped everytime at photo number 31. I was using Iphoto 5.0.4 so i decided to update it to 6.0.3 version but when I select the destination (Macintosh HD; 55.8 GB-35.3GB Free-)
I got a message saying:
You cannot installed it in that volume because the eligible iphoto application was not found in the location / Applications/iPhoto.app
I looked, and the iphoto is under applications, now I'm not sure if I have memory space problems or what, could anyone please help me?
I am not familiar with this, so I'll appreciate any advice.
thanks

Hi panis,
iPhoto 5.0.4 is the last update to iPhoto 5. To
update to 6.0.3 you have to purchase iPhoto 6 (part
of iLife 6) first, then update to 6.0.3.
thanks for the answer,
but i am still having problems using the iphoto 5 then.
I try to import the photos I have in a CD but the program blocks and I'm lead to force to quit when working on it.
I don't even can see the photos all the photos from the CD in thumbnail version, and I've tryed in a PC computer and I am able to see all of them. memory problems?
the computer is asking lately to quit an application or to restart it.

Major iTunes problems- please help

Okay people, here's a good one for you. On my desktop I have the latest iTunes version, software, and all that jazz. When I hook up my 60GB iPod or my 40GB iPod iTunes locks up and refuses to sync my iPod. I have had this problem for quite a while now. Anyone have any suggestions? Now I have another problem. Since I cannot use my desktop I backed up my 11GB library to 3 DVDs so I can transfer my library to my Sony Vaio laptop. On that laptop I uninstalled iTunes from the C drive and installed the latest 7.3 iTunes on the D drive so I would have enough space. I finished restoring the first disc and then put in the second. A message popped up saying there was not enough room on the C drive for all of the music. What in the ****? I installed on the D drive! So then I looked at the shortcut icon's properties it said it was located on the C drive. I then did the 'explore' thing and it said iTunes was on the D drive. So according to the laptop iTunes is in two different places. Does anybody know what the **** is going on and can you please help me?

Alright, so on my laptop I got my library to work on the D drive, but guess what. My 40GB iPod won't be recognized by the computer or iTunes but i don't really care about that iPod. My 60GB iPod is recognized somewhat but iTunes says something like "the iPod cannot be read... blah blah blah... you should restore your iPod." I am to the point of refusing to restore my iPod because I did that a few weeks ago for my desktop computer and I had to wait a full 36 hours for another non-Apple program to recover the data on my iPod because iTunes wouldn't sink it. No wonder I don't want to restore my iPod. Please someone help me!

B1WS Update Problem -- please help.

Hi,
I am trying to get B1WS to work and am experiencing some issues I am hoping you can please help with.
We are wanting to be able to add, edit and remove batch information for order line items.
The code I have written will work, though it will only work once, when it is updating the document.
If the code is run, with the Update command commented out, it will work every time.
But if it does update the record, it will begin to crash with it is run again.
The code I am using is:
 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
 loginWebRef.LoginService ls = new loginWebRef.LoginService();
 string sessionID = ls.Login("SQL-PATCH", "SBOJFDC_US", loginWebRef.LoginDatabaseType.dst_MSSQL2005, true, "sa", "PASSWORD", "manager", "PASSWORD", loginWebRef.LoginLanguage.ln_English, true, "LICENSE:30000");
 Response.Write(sessionID + " ");
 orderWebRef.MsgHeader msgHeader = new orderWebRef.MsgHeader();
 msgHeader.SessionID = sessionID;
 msgHeader.ServiceName = MsgHeaderServiceName.OrdersService;
 msgHeader.ServiceNameSpecified = true;
 orderWebRef.OrdersService order = new OrdersService();
 order.MsgHeaderValue = msgHeader;
 DocumentParams param = new DocumentParams();
 param.DocEntry = 89364;
 param.DocEntrySpecified = true;
 orderWebRef.Document document = new orderWebRef.Document();
 document = order.GetByParams(param);
 StringBuilder orderSb = new StringBuilder();
 orderSb.Append("Order " + document.DocNum.ToString() + " ");
 foreach (DocumentDocumentLine docLine in document.DocumentLines)
 orderSb.Append("Line Num: " + docLine.LineNum + " ");
 orderSb.Append("Item Code: " + docLine.ItemCode + " ");
 orderSb.Append("Description: " + docLine.ItemDescription + " ");
 foreach (DocumentDocumentLineBatchNumber batch in docLine.BatchNumbers)
 orderSb.Append("+++++ Batch Num: " + batch.BatchNumber + " ");
 orderSb.Append("+++++ Quantity: " + batch.Quantity + " ");
 if (batch.Quantity > 0)
 batch.Quantity = 1;
 orderSb.Append("-------------------------------- ");
 order.Update(document);
 Response.Write(orderSb.ToString());
Do you have any idea why the update will only work once, and then need to have the machine rebooted so it can work again, only once?
Is there a way to test this with DIServer directly, to be sure whether it is a DIServer issue, or a B1WS issue?
Thank you,
Mike

Hi,
I have understood why there is no aspnet process... It is because I am using a Windows 2003 Server, which uses a process called "w3wp.exe".
I was able to attach to the process, and to get the breakpoint working in Visual Studio, though I do not know what I am looking for.
Everytime I do one update, I have restart the machine, or subsequent calls either timeout, or crash saying the response is malformed.
If I could navigate the XML and update the data DIServer uses, I would use that instead.
Thank you,
Mike

IPhone Application Update Problem -- Please Help

So I downloaded the application Aurora Feint. Synced it to my iPhone and all was well. Then apparently there was an update. Instead of logging onto iTunes and updating it that way, I decided to try out the Application Store update feature on the iPhone itself. The problem is that the feature won't work for programs later than 10MB. (Aurora Feint is 20+MB.) So now I'm left with an unusable Aurora Feint update icon on my screen that is just taking up space.
I tried holding down the icons so I could just click the X to get rid of it. Problem is the update icon has no X. Then I tried syncing my phone via iTunes and telling it to remove the AF application. Supposedly it did. But when I disconnected the phone, the AF update icon is still there.
Can someone please tell me how to get rid of the blood thing?

If all else fails, first remove the app from iTunes (delete it), then do a restore of the iPhone. It should be gone after the restore.

Toshiba P305 major hardware problems PLease help

I have a satellite p305. The headphone jack stopped working and the touchpad and click buttons stopped working. I tried updating drivers but nothing changed. The other problem was whenever you had to programs open that produce sound (windows media player and a you tube video or similar) The audio came out staticky. This is not when trying to listen to both players at the same time, one is paused. But if you have both of them open one will be staticky. I tore the computer down to see if there was anything visually wrong with it at the headphone jack or where the click butons and touch pad plug in but found nothing. I put the motherboard back in and put it all back together and plugged it in and pressed the power button. The buttons light up and i think either the hard drive or fan spun but nothing else happened after that. Im thinking bad MOBO but i need some advise because this is a computer that i am working on for someone else and really dont want the whole you broke my computer game to be played.

This is one problem within the DirectX 9.0b:
Please take a good look at this update for Microsoft DirectX v9.0b:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=8dfd1b6d-e177-4a0e-91d0-b4310675b02b&DisplayLang=en
Possible Issue Description:
- TV-Tuner card cannot keep TV-Tuner settings in memory;
- TV-Tuner card cannot be initialized in system after installing DirectX v9.0b;
- TV-Tuner card cannot capture any picture;
Official Microsoft Information:
DirectX 9.0b was released on 7/23/03 to address the MIDI security issue identified in bulletin MS03-030. A small number of non-security fixes were also included in the release. One of these fixes caused several TV Tuner capture card/driver combinations using video formats other than NTSC (NTSC-J, PAL, SECAM) to no longer initialize correctly on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Symptoms include loss of capture functionality and potential inability to set/retain device capture settings. This hotfix, documented further in Knowledge Base article 825116, has been issued to correct the flaw.
I believe that your SB card is sharing IRQs with your Firewire hardwares thus causing errors.

Apple software update problem *please help

i cant use the software update

The IP of your Software Update Server looks strange, not sure if it's correct or not. But it looks like a hamachi IP (VPN).
Not sure though.

TECRA 8100 BIOS update problem - PLEASE HELP!

Hi.
I have Windows XP and I try to update bios with win-BIOS-250.exe. But when I run this file it appears a window with communicate: TOSHIBA Common Modules is not installed. I don't have floppy drive - maybe it is the reason. Is there any possibility to update bios without floppy drive?

Hi
If You cannot or do not want to install the Common Modules, there is another trick to try.
Sure it's a lot more complicated, but it will enhance the cool image you already have :) Your friends will be highly impressed!
It will also demand some tech knowledge on how to handle diskette images and create bootable CD's.
You can download the BIOS-diskette intended for traditional BIOS updates to another PC - one that has a diskette drive.
Create the diskette there.
Start a CD burning software and choose to create a bootable CD. Normally the burning software will ask you to provide the bootable diskette - point to the one You just created. Burn the CD.
Done!
Now you can boot the 8100 on the CD and it will upgrade the BIOS.
Maybe a waste of CD-media...but if you really need it...

IPhone 3G, updating problem - please help!

i have installed the latest iphone software onto my 3G but when i download apps it says I haven't got the latest iphone software.. what shall i do?!
Also can I get ios 5?

The last version of iOS to be supported is 4.2.1. If apps require something higher, you will not be able to use them. The only way around this is to buy a new phone. You can NOT install iOS 5 on an iPhone 3G.

I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.
