My 4th generation nano syncing problems gave me an error msg over 100 syncing problems where songs were "not authorized" on my computer. What does that mean and how do I get them onto my Nano????
Help! My 4th Generation Ipod Nano won't sync all my songs. I backed-up my songs first, then formated and then restored back to my Ipod. Now it syncs and my ipod shows up in the sidebar, but I get an error message that over 100+ songs were not copied over due to "not being authorized to play on my computer." I followed the directions to try to get those songs restored onto my Nano, but it's not working! Now what?
Thank you,

Are you sure you authorized the computer with the same iTunes account used to make those iTunes purchases? Perhaps this article can help.

If nothing else try these steps.
Deauthorize the computer and log out of the iTunes store. Then close out of iTunes and reboot your computer. Then open up iTunes, log into the iTunes store and reauthorize the computer.

My projects icons turned to orange in Aperture? I must have pressed a button without noticing it. What does that mean, and how can I get them back to normal?
My projects icons turned to orange in Aperture?
Ana Candano, what is your Aperture version? Earlier Aperture versions - until Aperture 3.2.4 had colored icons, Aperture 3.3 and later are gray in gray. Do you have two versions of Aperture installed?
When you post back, list your version of MacOS X and the versions of any Aperture.app you can find with Spotlight on your Mac.
Frank, the thread you pointed to, was a different question, but probably is related. It would be good to know how it has been resolved. -

My Apple TV states in general menu "Activation: failed". What does that mean and how can I solve the problem?
Hello MichaMuc,
I found some steps to help resolve the "Activation: failed" error messsage you are getting on your Apple TV:
Restart your base station or router. Sometimes this is done by turning the router off for a few seconds, and then on again, but check the documentation provided by the manufacturer.
To restart your Apple TV, press and hold Menu and Menu down/scroll ( - ) for about 6 seconds and then choose Restart from the menu.
If the issue continues after restarting, reset your router or base station and Apple TV to factory settings
Reset your base station or router. Use the documentation provided by the manufacturer to reset to factory settings.
To reset your Apple TV perform a factory restore.

I have had a permanent vertical blue line on the right side of my imac screen for some time now. It does not affect the use of the computer. A red one has popped up on the right side of the screen and is not going away either.
Would you know why these are appearing and perhaps how to get rid of them please?
Thank you in advanceBest guess is that either your GPU or LCD is failing. You should take it to the nearest Apple Store or AASP for proper diagnostic. Once you know what the problem is you can decide wether or not it's worth repairing.

TS3694 trying to update and it gave me an error6- what does that means and how to fix it
Trying to figure out why i recieved an error 6 when undating through itunes. How do i correct it? thanks
It happens sometimes
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I cannot eject my new ipod classic after sync with i-tunes on my pc due, it states, to open files being used by another application. What does this mean? How can I get my ipod to eject?
If it's a one-time "glitch," you can try restarting your computer with the iPod still connected. Try ejecting again after the restart.
If the problem recurs, you may have a process running (other than iTunes) that is accessing the iPod's storage. When connected, the iPod's "disk" is like other mounted volumes. This process may be some type of utility that continously monitors your mounted volumes for security reasons, such as to prevent access by malware.
If you know of such a program that you have running in the background, there may be a setting to exclude your iPod's disk. -
