Did you ever figure this out? I followed these instructions and it worked! May have had something to do with the old MobileMe program becoming obsolete. After you click "Finder", then "Go", then hold down "option" button, then click "library" folder, then follow folders as listed.   I also deleted the MobileMeSyncClient folder (found in the same location) since it is no longer in use either.

this works...
You   need to delete the MobilSync backup folder. I have a Mac. Went to   /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup and deleted the Backup   folder.
to   find your "library" folder you need to open "finder" then go to the top tool bar menu and open "go" then hold down the "option" button and   "library will appear in the "finder " menu on the left hand side...   cheers

Computer.sparsebundle" could not be accessed (error -1).

The backup disk image “/Volumes/Clement Mario's Time Capsu/Clement Mario’s Computer.sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1).
Latest successful backup: 30/8/11 at 11:06 AM
Any suggestions please

I have not found a long-term solution (fix), but in my case the volume where the Time Machine backup should occur usually is mounted on the desktop but not as a shared volume (incidated as a drive with the people holding hands superimposed over the drive icon). If I drag the drive to the trash (unmount it), the next time Time Machine is scheduled to run, it completes successfully.

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

IPod Classic won't Sync to computer, says 74gb out of 80gb are used -but there's nothing on ipod. How do I restore?

iPod won't Sync to computer, says 74gb out of 80gb are used -but there's nothing on ipod. How do I restore? Is anyone else familiar with this problem? It had over 25 movies, thousands of songs & hundreds of pictures, and it seems like they're still on there, because 74gb are used out of the 80 but when I turn the ipod on it appears to be at factory, fresh out of the box settings and my computer wont recognise it at all...

For the following suggestion, when you connect the iPod to the PC, and iTunes open up, please close it, before you fix the drive.
Your iPod hardisk filesystem is corrupted, and maybe repaired by using command line, under DOS window.
chkdsk drive: /F
where drive: is the iPod ID D: or E:
You can also try clicking the IPod properties, and run error checking in GUI, tick "fix all error."
If you have access to a Mac, you can use DiskUtility, and run FirstAid to repair the iPod.
Good Luck!
BTW, this problem arise because, iPod did not complete, closing, the Sync process, due to timeout, for Windows systems, I think it is maybe caused by Antivirus, or some other plugins, trying to make windows 7 look like Mac OS X.

Skype wont open, saying its "not supported on this Aschitecture". How can I get it to work??

Skype wont open, saying its "not supported on this Aschitecture". How can I get it to work??
I have downloaded Skype from its main website for MAC, but still it says " can't open Skype. not supported on this Architecture" when i click on it. I don't know why it wont. This isn't an old Desktop Mac computer, and Skype downloaded with no problems on my Mac Lap top. So what's wrong this time?
Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks!

HELP ME!!!! itunes wont open, error says could not open key......

I attempted to update itunes to the newest upgrade, and the upgrade was unsucceful, and now this error comes up everytime i try to open itunes (it wont open at all). the error says
Could not open key:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\.wav\OpenWithList\iTunes.exe.
Verify that you have sufficent access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
This makes no sense since this is on my home PC

hmmm. okay, if you're currently just getting the "itunes has encountered an error ..." let's try the following technique.
preliminaries
download and save a fresh copy of the itunes 6.0.1.3 installer to your hard drive. (eventually we're going to run the install from there rather than online.)
iTunes 6.0.1.3 Installer
switch off any antivirus and antispyware applications prior to any uninstalls, installs or repair installs.
uninstall
use the complete uninstall instructions given in the following document to remove your existing itunes and quicktime:
Troubleshooting iTunes, iPod Software, and QuickTime installation on Windows
... and if you run into problems on the uninstall, try using the Installer Cleanup utility:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
reboot after uninstalling.
reinstall
remember to switch off your antivirus and antispyware.
reinstall itunes using the 6.0.1.3 installer you downloaded previously.
if you get the "itunes has encountered a problem ..." error message again after that install, first check to see if your Quicktime will launch. if you get an error message when you try to launch quicktime, try using the following technique:
iTunes 6 for Windows unexpectedly quits when opened
keep us posted on your progress.
