Mini has only 2.56GB of mp3s, but says i used all 3.77GB

Yesterday i tried adding new songs to my mini and it told me it was full! On the bottom of iTunes, it says i have 586 songs (2.56GB), but above that it says i have used 3.77GB and only have 312kb left!!! All my files are either mp3s or songs i purchased from iTunes (mp4). I read past posts in this forum and read some stuff about the bitrate. My bitrate is set at 160. Is that what is happening or is my ipod defective? Would reformating my ipod help? It is just extrememly frustrating to think you are getting 4GB and only getting 2.56GB out of it.

This seems to happen from time to time. I have not read a good explanation, but I suspect that the iPod's operating system isn't the best at memory management.
These are the standard fist steps to this type of issue:
First try Resetting Your iPod to correct this problem. It may take several attempts.
If that does not solve the problem, then Restore Your iPod and put the music back on your iPod, from iTunes.
With a 4GB iPod, you will be able to load about 3.75GBs of song files if you load nothing else (contacts, notes, etc.).

1. Reset iPad; hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo
2. Try another wall socket
3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
5. Clean Lightning port with compress air or new paint brush

If iPad mini has the basic iPad 2 hardware, why can't use Siri on iPad 2?

If iPad mini has the basic iPad 2 hardware, why can't use Siri on iPad 2?

Wrong on all counts. Well except for the A5 post.
The 3rd Generation iPad and iPhone 4s both have an Audience chipset for noise suppression/voice recognition that the iPad 2 et. al. do not have. The iPhone 5, 5th Generation iPod Touch, 4th Generation iPad and iPad Mini are using a different type of hardware based noise suppression/voice recognition that is an improvement over the Audience chipset (hope you didn't have Audience stock).

My ipod touch 64G doesnt allow me to do anything in my music app. I cant even play music or select anything. But I can use all other apps. How do I fix this??? PLS Help me:(

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

I just bought a $25 Gift Card and used 15 dollars of it. But iTunes saying I used all of it? How do I get the rest of my money back?

Check the account area of the iTunes Store window on the right to check the balance. You must use the credit remaining, no refunds.

A different question for "Old Comm Guy" about that quote for G4 PCI "YIKES" machines, mine has only 5 led's, but do fit the lighting sequence listed.

My G4 400 Mhz PCI "YIKES" machine has only 5 led's, none in DS4 or DS5, nothing there but the un-molested sodlier bumps (never has anything been there), and my lighting sequences are 7 & 8 are on together, the others are dependant upon keystrokes or other demands (mouse, etc.).
There are seven diagnostic LEDs on the Power Mac G4 (PCI Graphics) logic board.
DS1 = ATA drive activity
DS4 and DS5 = USB power for downstream devices (There is no DS2 or DS3 on the board.)
DS6 = Ultra ATA bus activity
DS7 & DS8 = Power Indication
In a working unit, these LEDs should be in sync with each other: both on or both off. If one LED is on and the other is off, there is a problem.
DS9 = CPU Bus
Now I have a problem that started when I opened the side to check the led's in operation, side was open for 6 or 7 minutes and I got the screen of death, darkened, need restart, multi languages. .... I had just cured the start-up problems I was having for a month, 10 days ago. It was the powered USB hub plugged into the machines back panel, instead of the K/B port, I did have the mouse to the K/B and hub to back of machine, swapped locations and it was fixed, even the dead printer came to life and began printing (hadn't worked for 10 months !!)
What cuased the "screen of death" was traced to a memory dimm / ram stick that died, a PC133, 256MB made by 16X8 (or XB), I swear I wasn't dragging chains over the M/B, or anything really stupid, (I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer, but not dumb either).
The "death screen" has caued a big headache, very hard to get to Applejack, open firmware, ect., I have, but not with any consistancy, did them, did DU test & verify, all passed "GOOD" or "no problems", all this was done in "safe boot mode", but I can't get to "regular mode" after restart !! ... it just sits on the gray apple screen w/o the spinning gear / wheel for hours !!!
Any ideas would be nice to hear, I plan on doing a re-install or repair / restore from / with the install DVD tomorrow.
And a link to info. of which ram / dimm memory sticks I might use from the other machines I have here, a G3 B&W, G4 QS 800 DP, etc. what will interchange ?, if any ? ........... Thanks for any input you may have, ..... wayne146 .....
I need some sleep, this has given me a massive headache, all because I read that quote and knew my lights didn't quite match it. ..... If only I had not cared, I migth not have gotten in such a bind / blunder, stupid me, I could resist it, I had to look for a compairison.
signing off for a few hours ....... wayne146 ..........

Good Morning, old comm guy,
Well I tried following your instructions to the letter, as best my limited knowledge would take me.
I opened the "terminal window", then "terminal preferences", the proper radio button was already checked for the phrase you indicated, and the insert line / window had "/bin/bash/", grayed out in it, below that is the "declare terminal type" that was set to "xterm color", so I couldn't change the grayed out window, but I could make selections for "declare. term. type" ... I left that as it was at "xterm color".
In the bottom of the Term. Pref. window is a "Open a saved term. file ...." and a window to enter a selection, when I clicked on "select", it open a "finder window" ,<applications> with almost everything grayed out, not knowing what to do, I backed out of the finder window, and also I can't just type a command into the "open a saved term. file" window, it must be done with the select button.
So basically I'm saying this Unix stuff is all Greek to me, I would need more detailed instructions to follow to the letter, for me to get through this with any success.
And this is weird, while I was working in Yahoo mail and here in discussions I was in "Safe Boot" for several hours, with several restarts in "Safe" (the only way I could do anything) I was swapping and checking a few different RAM sticks with the diagnostics in "about this mac" (one had died when watching the led's). the one that died, return to the living & working world, ??????? ..... and this G4 400mhz "YIKES" machine, STARTED FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AGAIN (?????????????) SHUTDOWN W/ K/B BUTTON, RESTART W/ K/B BUTTON, So weird !!!
And anther bit of weirdness is that while the Apple Tech. info says this uses PC 100 sdram, every stick of memory in this machine has stickers on them from different makers saying that they are PC 133 sdram of 256 mb. ??? ..... Can this be true ?, has this thing altered itself or altered the RAM, to work with each other ???
After it started working "properly" (?), both Firefox and Safari crashed many times and often, so I dumped Firefox (3.6.19) and reloaded a fresh FF 3.6.19, as I may have done something to them by accident in my panicing and buggering around, even had a Screen of Death 1 or 2 times, and it restarted with only a push of the front reset button, restarted as if it was just turned on with no problems lurking in it's past. .... Also weird !!! ?????
The New FireFox (3.6.19) hasn't crashed since the new install, that maybe OK now, time will tell, ........ wonder if the wrong ram was causing browsers to crash ???? ... or is the ram wrong ??... why is it working ???
All the Ram stick were bought from "Chris", the Apple Expert @ RE - PC, here in Seattle, he also sold me this YIKES machine, so there was no mistake as to what I wanted the RAM for.
I have a spare G3 B/W 450Mhz machine that also has pc 133 sdram in it as well, same thing with it, bought from "Chris", and the Ram in it too. It only has OS 9.2.2 on it, I need to do the work around to put Tiger 10.4.11 on it. Later .......
Well what do you think ??? ..... It's alot to process, take your time,
Please review this babbling I have put forth, it could be written a little clearer, but I have read it over twice and it makes sense as I read it (of course, I know what I meant when I typed it)......
.........Thanks for your time and help. ........wayne146 ....... (all nighter again, going for a nap, back in 4 - 5 hrs.) ...............wayne146 ........

Ipad mini has frozen when trying to update software, saying connect to itunes but itunes won't allow update or a reset

help!
I clicked on the software update for my ipad mini.
I now have a screen that says I need to plug into i tunes.
When i did this itunes says that the ipad is in recovery mode and cannot be updated
i have tried to reset but it just keeps saying unable to do so and error 3194 has now started to appear

You can't update to iOS 7.1.1, you can only update to the current version i.e. 7.1.2
Error 3194 : Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"

I got a text saying I used all my data but my data was off for a week.

I recently received a text saying I used 90% of my data already. So I check my settings and my data is off. I kept it off for the whole day. The next morning, I received another text saying I've used all my data and I'm being charged for another 300mg. But my data wasn't on for a few days, I don't understand why I'm "using" data.

Contact your carrier since they are the ones in charge of your plan.

What version of OS X are you running? Go to the Apple menu>About this Mac and it will give the version number.
iCloud is available on Lion 10.7.2 or higher.

Material blocking working only in t-code Mb21 but we need from all ways i.e

Hi,
we have blocked Material 2611315121 for doing reservations. while doing
reservations thorough t-code MB21 it is working fine(the system blocking
to create reservation) . But while doing any maintenance order for same
materail through t-code IW31 it was accepting i.e reservation creating
for that Material.as well as while creating reservation through CJ20n
also the s/m allowing to create Reservation with respect to that
material.
--Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
System just works differently to MM.
It is check on good issue, than on the release.
Goo to transaction OMS4, click on your Material Status (e.g 01) and
verify if the field Plant Maintenance Message is updated.
For example, if you don't want any procurement from PM you must insert E (ERROR)
To show the blocking message, you have to add a 'B' in the field
'PO/network item msg.' and in the field 'Plant maint. message' in
transaction OMS4.
Check also that in MM02> Purchasing tab : Plant-sp.matl status is set accordly.

Help. Still only running 2 computers but says licenses used up.

In process of upgrading 2 old computers. Installed 2nd license on a MacBookAir. After one month traded MacBookAir in for a MacBook Pro. Apple copied over the contents of the Air hard drive to the new computer and said I would have to enter the serial number for CS6 again. Computer suggests I run Adobe App Mgr (upgraded to 6.2) and asked for serial number. Now it tells me that the maximum amount of copies are in use and it wasn't deactivated. How can I re-install on new computer?
Will also want to deactivate CS6 on another old computer when a new iMac arrives...

You need to contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone when you have serial number and activation issues.
Here are some links to help make contact:

I am using Photoshop as external editor but can't use all the filters

Hi,
I have just started using Aperture and have set-up photoshop CS2 as the external editor. I'm trying to add film grain to some of my images using the artistic filters. If I open one of my RAW (EOS 5D) images in Bridge once open in CS2 all the filters are available for use.
If I select a RAW image in Aperture and use the open with external editor feature, once the image is launched in CS2, half the filters are unavailable. Why is this and how do I over come the problem? Is it because Apertur opens the file in a funny format?
Many thanks in advance for your help

a few filters will (or have already) changed in cs3, however most remain the same in terms of 8 vs 16 bit. filters who are based on the rgb channels will be "grayed out" in the filters menu if an image has 16bit colours (regardless of tiff or psd of course).

You can turn off in-app purchases on the iPad via Settings > General > Restrictions > In-App Purchases 'off' - depending upon the iOS version on the iPad you might also have a Require Password setting on the Restrictions screen which you can set to 'Immediately'
There is a copy of the iPad manual here, which you can download : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/
And more info about restrictions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
