My contact list on my iPod has gone. In iTunes the info section for contacts doesn't show anything like 'family' - just tick box for all contacts. Any ideas on how to correct this? iPod is 3 yrs old...

My ipod no longer shows any contacts from my address book. iTunes when syncing in the info section - contacts - only shows the all contacts tick box, not categories such as 'family', 'friends' etc.
Any thoughts on why this is please?
Am suspecting icloud as a possible culprit.....
Thanks

Well start with these articles and see if that gets you anywhere...

Also you might try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

Slideshow shows up as 4 DIFFERENT movies, causing soundtrack dropouts. Any ideas on how to correct this?

For almost a year, I've been wondering why this occurred , and this morning, as I was copying it with Toast, I saw that it was listed as 4 different movies with 1 extra, which is exactly the number of sound dropouts that occur. Any cures for this, or can someone tell me what I did wrong, because I don't see any divisions in the program itself, or the slideshow "map". Thanks in advance!

Did you put chapter markers in your movie? If you did it would create the following when imported into iDVD:

If that's not what you've created I can't help.

I don't know what they call it, but my plantronics voyager pro, and my wifes plantronics voyager pro+ will not let you hear music through the headset. My Blueant T1 does support it and plays the music through the deadset.

My Firefox 8 for Mac no longer will launch properly. It opens, and immediately hangs before loading the home page and connecting to any website. Does anyone have any ideas about how to correct this? Thanks!

All I get is a blank home page, along with a spinning beach ball. I cannot open the preferences to try to clear the cache, and must force quit to get out of Firefox. I have tried clearing the cache from the Library, and trashed the preferences file. I uninstalled the application, and reinstalled a newly downloaded application. I have restarted the computer many times, and run the disk utility to repair permissions. Nothing has worked. I have not added or upgraded anything on my computer since Firefox was working just a few days ago. Safari works fine connecting to the web. I have read through most of the support documents at Firefox Help, but cannot find anything that addresses this specific problem of hanging immediately after launch.

I have the exact same problem--and it just started around November 11, 2011. I have rebooted, reinstalled, and relaunched many times and Firefox just hangs on launch. Spinning beach ball of death and all that.
I have not installed any new software or changed anything on my computer.

My iPod touch 4th gen iOS5.1.1 can't be recognised by my computer and I have tried different cables and usb ports but nothing has worked. The iPod is brand new and was only opened today. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I have just today recieved a brand new iPod Touch 4th generation iPod with the latest update. Everything else on the ipod is working and my computer is able to read the camera fine, but iTunes cannot recognise it - even after restarting and trying different USB ports and cables. There is nothing at all coming up on the device list and iTunes is working as it would if I had no iPod plugged in. This is my first iPod on this computer and I have already tried redownloading iTunes. My computer is a windows XP computer. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem?

Since this is an XP machine, which version of iTunes do you have installed? Is it the latest version?
Have you tried starting iTunes, attach the USB end of the cable, then while holding the home button on the iPod connect the 30-pin connector end of the cable to the iPod...that is the recovery mode but also should make iTunes see the iPod.
If that doesn't work you may need to take the iPod back and have it tested by the genius bar techs to make sure the connector is not bad.

My keyboard (wired) has lost functionality on the music PLAY/PAUSE, FORWARD and BACK, and VOLUME KEYS. They do NOTHING. All else is fine. How can I reassign them correctly? (Don't see those functions listed with System Settings/Keybard shortcuts).

Crayolla,
Try doing a SMC and PRAM resets. Sometimes it takes 2-3 attempts for them to work so be a little persistent if they fail the first time.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

If your program is Photoshop Elements 12, then you have posted in the wrong forum. Your thread is now in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
Please re-post your question in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum or wait for a moderator here to see your thread here and move it from here to there.

While you are making your move, consider
a. what computer operating system is involved...if we assume Windows
b. have you checked Control Panel/Programs to assure that the program is no longer listed as an installed program?
If it is no longer installed, you might want to consider a free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) to get
rid of any leftovers from incomplete installs and uninstalls. Then reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.

You do have one or more empty photo frames. Most often it will be a full page photo page missing behind a placed full page photo. To find it you need to go through you'd book and look behind each full page photo
