Mp3 doesn´t start but blue light is still

i wanted to charge my mp3 (zen 30gb) but took a wrong cable. now i can't start the mp3 and there?s no sign on the screen. still the blue light is working. i also can't connect it to the pc.
do you know what to do?

I did the same thing. Tried to use a power adapter that was unsuitable and I was left with the blue light stuck on my Zen Vision:M. I tried resetting the player, I got in touch with the Creative Support team but they weren't interested because I'm out of warranty. I've opended up the player and the battery is registering a charge, so I think that's OK. If I have indeed damaged my player do you know anywhere in the UK (preferably North West) where I can take it to get it checked out/fixed.

OSX doesn't start but XP under bootcamp runs fine

I am having OSX start up problems. I have tried save mode, starting from my Snow leopard DVD, resetting the SMC.
The strange thing is that the Mac HD seems to have disappeared. When I tried to reinstall Snow Leopard the Mac HD wasn't even put forward as an option.
Now it gets stranger as XP works fine under bootcamp, I can see the HD and all files seems to be there. So in effect I now have a Windows Mac...who would have throught
Anybody any suggestions before I spend a bundle on repair ?
Thanks!

I had the same problem, I don't know about you but I got used to just restarting and holding down the option key to switch between each OS. However, when my mac install 'disappeared' I went into the bootcamp control panel via the windows partition and selected to reboot in mac mode and it worked, even though the alt key restart did not.
So you can try that if you have not already.
There is definitely a larger problem here though, I think a firmware update seems to be needed...

Help! I think my laptop was stolen, but the light is still on for "internet"...

Does this mean the connection is still active, meaning it's around my house and just misplaced?
Thank you so much, I'm really hysterical because we really can't find it or the charger for it at all...

If numbers 1,2,3,4 ethernet light is on, then this means that something is plugged in there, this could be a computer, printer or any networking devices. The internet light is lit up because you modem is apparently connected to the internet port.
Basically, those lights in front of the router indicates that there are devices connected at the back of the router.

My Caps Lock is off but my light is still on.

I would be happy if you would help me.

Is it wired or wireless? I had the same problem with a wireless and took it (just the keyboard) to a local AASP and they replaced it.

Ipod suffle 3g recognized by iTunes but doesn't start! (water damage)

My ipod shuffle 3G has a water damage. it shows the red/pink indicator.
It doesn't starts but it connects to iTunes. I can move songs to my iPod shuffle and other stuffs. But it doesn't start.
I have opened my iPod shuffle. It had green sedimentation in it. I cleaned it but it still doesn't start and is still recognized by iTunes.
Does anybody have an idea what the reason could be?

If it doesn't power on when you try to use it, the damage may be to the battery. When it's connected, it is getting power from the USB connection, so it works. When you disconnected, the battery does not hold a charge, so it is dead.
Since you know how to open it, you may want to try leaving it open in a dry ventilated place for a few days. If the cause is moisture shorting something out, when the moisture evaporates, it may work again.

My MacBook Pro 15,4" doesn't start at all!

Hi everyone!
Today morning, normal day, after having my MacBook Pro charging all night (as always), I took it (without any cables) in the kitchen, in order to, very surprising, turn it on!
But nothing happens!! Checking battery status: ok (new), removing it and trying without, still nothing. I tried all reset techniques, as well as Ctrl + Cmd + Start button. But still nothing.
What is happening?
When I press the button, I hear the DVD player making his little "clac-clac", the fan is starting, and the light as well, but as soon as I take my finger off the start button, it stops again! If I keep my finger longer on the button, it stops as well after a while (normal forced stop), but the "gong" never sound.
Can anyone help me with this? Where does it come from? I'm a computer technician, and fixed a lot of laptops, but when it comes to Apple, I panic, and I don't know what to do anymore! I'm always a bit scared to open it myself...
Maybe I should add that it's making some noise on the right fan since 2 months (as if a plastic piece was blocked inside), some kind of "clac, clac, clac", and it was getting really warm sometimes. The DVD-player is also a bit "curved", and it's problematic to extract the discs sometimes.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers,
Ron.

Hi everyone!
Thanks for the answers.
@Advanced User: I haven't tried that yet, but I will tonight. And I found a Store in my town, in case I cant solve it myself.
@eww: I always buy original parts, even more by Apple. Of yourse I tried without the battery. All the basic tests were done. I also opened the machine and test electrically if anything was interupted. But I couldn't find anything. I must say my son (2 years old) found it very funny last week-end to play piano (pretty strongly) on the keyboard of the MB... But I don't think he broke something, otherwise I'd be really disappointed in a 2000€ notebook...
The exact model of the MacBook is MB133D/A, and I cant access any System Profiler, because the MacBook.... doesn't start! The battery was still holding 3 hours.

When I double click on Firefox Icon, it doesn't start

when I double click on Firefox icon the clock glass appears on my pointer but the Firefox doesn't start. but some days like today it opens and doesn't have any problem.
I predict that I will have this problem again after I close the Firefox's window.
The problem started since a few days after updating my Firefox.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== afew days after updating my firefox

One of your add-ons might be the culprit. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Dreamweaver doesn't start

Dreamweaver doesn't start but shows as running in taskmanager processes but not in taskmanager applications.
I can then end the process and restart the program but the same thing happens. It doesn't even show the startup screen, it just shows the Dreamweaver.exe in taskmanager processes.
What can I do to reset the startup or clear what ever is stopping it.
Have used this dreamweaver installation for over a year with no problem and have not changed anything.
Would really appreciate some help.

Try the below steps and check if that helps.

DVD doesn't start

I borrowed DVD - "WORKS of ART by THEO ANSEN"
After inserting the cd, Dvd player starts, but it doesn't work. I can see dvd menu right cornet at bottom of the screen. The movie doesn't start, but also I can't select anything in the menu. I can't even quit Dvd player, so I have to press shut down button. Why is that?

Hello!
The first thing you probably want to check is whether the DVD is clean or not. It may freeze when you put the disc in because it is having trouble reading it. So, first clean it off. Second, I would open up the DVD player application before you insert the DVD, and make sure the screen size isn't set to full screen, so you can see the desktop. Insert the DVD, and when it freezes, try clicking on the desktop and see if it can put the desktop in the foreground. You may get the spinning color wheel - let it sit for a while and see if it can fix itself. If it can't, press commandoptionescape and see if DVD player says "not responding" next to it. If it does, force quit DVD player.
If you can't get it to play with the above options, then I would try two more things. First, I would try a different DVD. If another DVD runs fine, then you can be sure that nothing is wrong with the computer and it is the initial DVD that is causing problems. If all DVD's freeze when you put them in, I would question whether the DVD application is working correctly; a reinstallation may be necessary.
Also, for added measure, why don't you go ahead and repair the permissions on your hard disk. You can do this by opening hard drive/Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility. Disk Utility is a very powerful tool which allows you to perform many functions. All that we are interested in is the "repair permissions" function. On the left hand side of the Disk Utility window, you hard drive and volume will be listed. Select the OS volume, and under the +first aid+ tab select +repair permissions+. If you haven't done that in a while, you'll probably get a whole list of things that are repaired. Then, restart and try running DVD player again.
Hopefully one of these options works. Please let me know the results!

Iphone 4S the flash light came on by itself, and won't go off. The light is still on. Ican't get it to charge so I can restore it.

My light came on in the middle of the night, and it was vibrating. I can't get the light off. Now the phone is dead, but the light is still on. I tried taking a picture, but the screen was black on the rear facing camera. I can't get the phone to come on now. I hooked it up to my computer, and I have it on the wall charger.

Then it is time to restore the device... first from backup. If the issue still continues, restore as new.

(zen v) when i switch the on button and hold it there the blue light appears but will not cut

Bumping this thread as my daughter's Zen V is doing the same. The blue light flashes when the on/standby button is held on but it doesn't actually start up. Is this a hardware failure? She's only had it 3 months.

Thanks, I figured it out. I remembered that I had to reset my ZEN when I first received this refurbished model. I reset it, and it worked. I still am having problems downloading from my audible book to my ZEN. I have over 4 GB left on my ZEN and it will not download for me from my audible files. I am trying to avoid calling tech support. Can anyone help.
Margaret.

Ipad 2 screen randomly gone blank shows dark blue light up but no apple logo upon restart and remains the same.

Hey
So I left my Ipad 2 on charge and it was working absolutely fine. Later on when I came in the room to check up on it, it had a blank screen and the Ipad was lit in the background as it was giving off the dark blue light but nothing on the screen would come up. I tried shutting it down using the power button and the home button yet nothing. Even the Apple logo would not appear. I just recently upgraded to IOS 6. I'm not sure what exactly caused this as it was working fine just a few hours ago. I've tried connecting to itunes held down the power and home button nothing seems to be working. Also I no longer have the warrenty.
Not sure what to do now

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

Firefox process starts but window doesn't open.

All the suddenly when I start Firefox 11 the window doesn't appear but the process will start in task manager. Yesterday morning everything worked well, but when I came home at evening Microsoft Security Essentials wasn't starting it's protection. I got it working by installing it again. Firefox just doesn't open the window for me.
-I have uninstalled Firefox and rebooted system
-Ran CCleaner and Spybot S&D
-Manually reset register values with regedit.
-I have deleted all AppData and plugin files.

You are absolutely right homercles. I should have been more precise with the things I did before I ended up on fresh install.
My point in my last post was that I totally tried to re-install Firefox many times and did all the things other people told me to solve this problem. I even went to cycle throught windows registers manually that is also one thing that you don't want to do if you aren't absolutely sure what you are doing.
My solution was absolutely the last thing you want to do to make things work and takes alot of effort, but as I made my judgement IN MY CASE it was the only thing I could do after week of trying to fix this.

Apple logo comes up but ipod doesn't start

When I turn on the device the Apple logo comes up but the ipod doesn't start and go to the menus it just stays with the logo. When I hold down the play/pause on the click wheel to put it to sleep a symbol of a triangle with an exclamation point in the center comes up along with "www.apple.com/support/ipod." I tried rebooting it with Menu/select but nothing happens.

Unfortunately, on a "classic" iPod that uses a hard drive for storage, the most likely cause is a faulty hard drive.
You can try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
If that works, connect it to the computer and run iTunes. iTunes may prompt you to do a Restore. This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If the cause is data corruption or a software issue (and the hard drive has no physical problem), the Restore should fix it.
