My I-pod mini stays on when my computer turns off.
Hey there,
I'm sort of new to the whole i-pod scene. I'm not sure if this happens to other people or not. I did a quick search on the forums and didn't see anything like this.
Basically what happens is, I connect my i pod mini to my computer. but if i turn my computer off and leave my ipod mini connected, the i pod stays on (although the back light will turn itself off) and in a short while the battery is completly dead. So I have to charge it again. I know the simple solution is to simply disconnect the i pod mini, but I think it should turn itself off should it not? I always forget to disconnect it and then the battery is drained and i have to wait an hour or so for the thing to charge again.
Is there any patch to fix this?
My psu is an enermax 600w noisetaker
my mobo is the asus a8v deluxe
I only listed these to components as I feel they are the only 2 relevant to my problem (if they have any relevancy at all)
Thanks for any help guys!

Maybe you missed this part of my post.
"Your computer cannot charge the iPod battery whilst it's switched off."
If you leave it connected to your computer without switching it off, then the battery will drain. A computer that is powered off cannot charge the iPod battery. The exception is on some Macs that can charge the battery whilst in "sleep" mode.
And when you say "it's not doing anything" is the 'do not disconnect' screen still displayed? If it is, the iPod is switched on and the battery is draining.
Before powering off your computer, disconnect the iPod and switch it off.

Powerade spilled on Laptop, still works, but lights/DVD drive stay on when laptop is shut off?
PLEASE READ:
So my sister spilled some amounts of Powerade onto my HP (Pavilion DV7-3165dx ) laptop (2 years old), it spreaded a little(?)on the keyboard (not sure if it penetrated through?) but we managed to immediately turn it over, turned it off ( It dididn't shut itself off,yet), took the charger off, and then the battery later.
While upside-down, I dried it with a blow dryer for a little while (on cool setting).
Then I let it sit on an upside down V shape for like 2 days with a small fan pointed at it. Then let it sit for another day.
I turned it on yesterday (after inspecting it and everything, I even opened the dvd drive by poking through the hole to open it manually, this is the side where it mostly spilled, I looked at the CD drive and smelled it and saw no trace of Powerade residue, so I assumed the motherboard diidn''t even get wet at all ), everything was working flawlessly...
But I noticed when It's turned off, but has some power source,(such as the battery or the charger plugged in ) the indicator lights (stop,forward,wireless button etc) and the light on the DVD drive would otherwise stay/go on and off (flicker) sometimes and you could open the DVD drive by just pressing the button!
Why is this? It seems the electricity from the charger or battery is somehow powering the lights?
Is this a bad thing?
I've tried power draining (disconnecting every power source and holding down the power button), but it doesn't seem to work?
I've also heard worse post laptop-spill where it resulted on the laptop acting weirdly but after a few days it was gone and working completely ....so is it possible there is still some liquid in there?
-Thank youIt ain't good. The only way to check fully how far the liquid went is to remove the keyboard and look around under it. I think by now it is dry but I worry more about the sugar residue on electronic circuits. Here is a link to the Manual:
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01859666.pdf
You are out of warranty anyway so it cannot hurt to remove the keyboard. Be careful with the ribbon cables. Remove the keyboard and wipe away any spill residue you see with rubbing alcohol and let dry thoroughly. -

ITunes 11.0.4 is shuffling music even when shuffle is turned off
Grrrr. This is really driving me nuts.
I'm using 11.0.4 on my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.8.4).
iTunes will shuffle the music I'm playing even when shuffle is turned off. It will finish track 1 of an album (for example) and then go to 9. or 11. or 7.
What the heck is going on??Hi Allen
Many thanks for the links, although i was aware of the sleep proxy and its uses. The problem i'm having does seem to be related to this, although the key difference between what i am (or was) experiencing is the definition of 'occasionally' as mentioned on the page you linked to.
What i was experiencing was the mac mini would go to sleep then 60 second later it would stir, as if being woken to reregister its services with the sleep proxy, then it would go back to sleep. Then around 60 seconds later it would do this again, and so on and so forth until it was fully woken in one way or another.
Now i do seem to have made progress after digging around a little further. I did figure out that it was a bonjour service/ or device that was causing the mac mini to stir And as i mentioned in my previous message this behaviour would cease if itunes was closed or home sharing was turned off. So the only thing on the network that was connected to this was my 2 apple TVs. As a test i unplugged both boxes and put the mini to sleep again. Then i waited and waited and the mini stayed soundly asleep.
I have since plugged the 2 ATVs back in, one at a time, and the mini now seems to be sleeping for around an hour before it wakes, presuming to do the sleep proxy service thingo.
i'm just running another test to prove to myself that it is actually back to a more normal state with both ATVs plugged in, so fingers crossed.
if anyone knows, does this now sound like a normal setup with the way the sleep proxy works?
i suppose i should have done this at the start, but i have 1 airport extreme, and 2 ATVs (and few ipads, iphones and the like all onthe network), if that helps.

Apple is great!
Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get? Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC. I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off. Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage. I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging. Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on. What happened to regular MMS text messaging? I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program. I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

Re: i was charging my iphone 3GS yesterday in electricity when once it turned off suddenly while it was in quarter battery. I tried charging it again but it didint open, i tried to plug it into my laptop but itunes didnt recognize it and it doesnt work.
Hello candymerna,
At this point I would recommeng resetting the device if if will not turn on.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If it does turn on, but will not charge then take a look at this part of the article iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting found http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Power/Battery
Battery does not charge from the USB power adapter
Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
Verify that the outlet being used is working.
Try another USB power adapter if available.
If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
Try another USB cable if available.
Also refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery.
If it is charging, but not recognized in iTunes take a look at one of these articles depending on your Operating System.

I lost power to my MacBook Pro before I had saved anything that I was working on...usually I plug my computer it and power it back on and the documents pop right back up when the computer turns on. That did not happen this time. How can I recover my documents?
If you never saved, auto save does not kick in.

CRM 2011: when auditing is turned off, why do existing Audit records lose "New Value"?
Not sure if this is by design (if so, would love to know why!) or if this is a bug. Let's say I have auditing turned on for Accounts. I change the phone number in the Main Phone field from 555-1111 to 555-5555, and an audit record is
created showing the Old Value (555-1111) and New Value (555-5555). Great. Now I turn off auditing. The system goes back to the audit record that had previously been created, and modifies it so that it shows the Old Value (555-1111),
and inserts an icon into the New Value field indicating auditing was turned off. The tool tip for that icon states "Auditing was stopped and restarted. The new values for the fields that changed during this period cannot be identified or recorded."
First of all (minor picky issue) auditing hasn't been turned back on yet, despite what the tool tip says (says the same thing whether or not auditing is turned back on). But the real problem is
why the existing audit record's New Value would be removed... why would that happen?!? We're talking about a historical update. It really did change, and the system knew what it changed from/to, so why would the system remove that new value
from the audit record? Logically I would expect that any changes made
while auditing is off would not be logged, and that once auditing is turned back on, Old/New values would correspond to whatever was/is in the system at the time that any new audit record is created, so there may be a disconnect between an older audit
record and a new one (old record's New Value not matching the new record's Old Value, because changes were made while auditing was off). And it's quite apparent when auditing is turned off, because an audit record is created stating "Auditing Disabled".
Any ideas if there's a logical reason why it would do this, or if this is really a bug that Microsoft needs to fix? We have a client with a business need to periodically turn off auditing while integration updates run between CRM and another system
(otherwise hundreds of thousands of unnecessary audit records would be created). But if they're going to lose audit data every time they disable auditing, the auditing is worthless.We wouldn't ever temporarily turn auditing off on purpose... it's happening when we import managed solutions. We have vendors with managed solutions that contain system entities such as Contacts. When importing their solution, it momentarily
turns auditing off on those entities. The only evidence of this is audit records indicating "Entity Audit Stopped", and of course the loss of all the most recent "new value" on all audit records. The interesting (?) parts of this are:
1. When importing the managed solution, the recommended option to keep all existing customizations is selected. I would think this would include the audit settings on the entity, but apparently not (sort of... see #2).
2. As soon as the managed solution is imported, in addition to creating an "Entity Audit Stopped" audit record on relevant entities and wiping out new values, it apparently turns auditing back on, yet there's no record of this (in customizations, the entity
still (or once again) indicates auditing is enabled; but on records for that entity, there is no "Entity Audit Enabled" record.
So, now it's on to working with the vendors, to dig into their managed solutions and see if there's a way to prevent this! -
While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please
That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Hi Roger
Thank you for your reply.
My original feed is: http://casa-egypt.com/feed/
However, because I modified the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast and nothing changed, I redirected it to another feed and then I deleted this feed.
Is there any way to change the feed in itunes? The only feed I have now is http://feeds.feedburner.com/CasaEgyptStation
I tried to restore the feed http://feeds.feedburner.com/imananddinasbroadcast but feedburner refused.
I know that I missed things up but I still have hope in working things out.
Thanks is advance.

When the sound turns off on my macbook and my macbook pro, the miniplug stereo port emits a an enormous 'pop', i.e. wildly uncontroled load leading to noise. Goundline hum follows. I am running OS 10.6.6. I have noted previous threads noting the same problem on OS 10.4.x and 10.5.
How do I stop my mac from trying to ruin my stereo and speakers every time I connect them?You don't say which year you have, however...
...there are known problems with the mid-2010 models (see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US) as well as early and late 15" 2011 models (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4766577?tstart=0).
Apple has taken ownership of the problems with the 2010 model but, unfortunately, the free logic board replacement for that model has probably long expired for you - three years after date of purchase.
One the 2011 models Apple has admitted no defect. You'll just have to skim the articles to get an overview of the problems that people are having (usually showing up as screen glitches at first and then going downhill from there).
Good luck,

Img alt="text" not displayed when images are turned off in Safari
I have tried to search this, but every search has returned too many posts, so I apologize in advance.
Have I made some error or is there an issue with my Safari? For some reason my Safari does not display alt="text" when images are turned off?
This is what is supposed to happen (see http://www.w3schools.com/tags/attimgalt.asp) and it works fine in my other browsers (Opera, FF), but with Safari I get nothing - no image, no alt text, no indiciation that an image is supposed to be in that place. According to w3c, Safari is supposed to be compliant.
There is no problem with the site itself, I am designing the site and test with and without images to see how it degrades. As I said, it works properly in Opera and FF - the alt="text" text is displayed in place of the image - but not in Safari.
Is this just my Safari? How do I fix this if it is?
Is it Safari in general? If so, how do we get it fixed, because this is clearly just not correct?It's not just you. I see the same thing in my Safari. It appears to be a Safari problem, in which case the best thing to do is submit feedback to Apple's developers via the Mac OS X feedback form. (You will not receive a response, as that page notes, but the feedback will get to the people who can use it.)
