My iPod has had everything wrong with it! Can anybody please help?PLEASE!!!
Hey All
Please help me with my ipod. Ive been trying for so long to get it working( More than 4 Months) but with no luck.
The problems started when my friend asked me to plug his ipod into my computer to get my songs because his ipod wouldnt load songs from his computer. Well I tried that and it didnt work. Anyway, the next time I tried to update my ipod(which is an ipod mini 4th Gen, i think)it wouldnt update my songs and came up with numerous messages that said something about a corrupt file run chkdsk. Well I looked up what to do and I did run the chkdsk thingy and it said that it fixed a few files so I no longer get those messages. Despite the slight improvement Im still having problems. When my iPod is plugged into my computer it slows the computer right down until iTunes is automatically opened. The ipod then starts to update, but at an incredibly slow rate. It takes it about one hour to update 50 songs. In addition, the ipod gets super, super hot. Now im no computer genius, but i know the USB port that I use with the iPod is a 2.0 thingy so thats not the problem. I have also tried resetting the ipod by pressing the "menu" and "select" buttons on the ipod, as well as restoring it using the ipod updater. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes with no luck and even went back to itunes version 4.0. My ipod has the latest ipod software on it so thats not the problem either. There is one thing I have noticed about my ipod that is rater unusual: the circle (located in the top left-hand corner of the screen) with the arrows on it that rotates when updating keeps flashing on and off in non-regular intervals when updating. Sometimes that little icon wont even appear and its when that icon doesnt appear that the ipod doesnt get recognized by itunes and the computer sees it as a portable storage device and not an ipod.
I know thats alot of infomation to swallow but does anyone have any ideas what the **** is going on???
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers.

You could try to format the iPod in Windows. It does the same thing as restoring and you would need to restore the iPod as normal (using the iPod updater) afterward. This can work when the iPod is recognized by the computer, but not by the updater.
First, put the iPod into forced disk mode.
See: How to put the iPod into disk mode.
On your PC, go "my computer" and right click on the iPod, then choose "format". Ensure the settings are at "default" and that "quick format" is not checked. Now select "format". When that's finished, restore the iPod using the updater.
You can also check the iPod's hard drive for errors using Windows ScanDisk.
Put the iPod into disk mode as previously mentioned. Go to "my computer" and right click on the iPod then select "properties", then "tools". Select the option to scan the disk for any errors.
To exit forced disk mode, reset the iPod.
If that doesn't work, then the iPod needs repair. (to be honest, I think it does)

What's wrong with this code. Any Help please?
Hello
I'm a newbie to java programming.I got this sample code from an online book that I use in learning java and I'm trying to run the code on eclipse but I got this error message
"Fatal exception occurred. Programm will exit."
This is the code:
public class MostDivisors {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int N;
int maxDivisors;
int numWithMax;
maxDivisors = 1;
numWithMax = 1;
for(N = 2 ; N <= 10000 ; N++){
int D;
int divisorCount;
divisorCount = 0;
for(D=0; D <= N; D++){
if (N % D == 0)
divisorCount++;
if (divisorCount > maxDivisors){
maxDivisors = divisorCount;
numWithMax = N;
System.out.println("Among intergers between 1 and 10000,");
System.out.println("The maximum number of divisors is "+maxDivisors);
System.out.println("A number with " + maxDivisors + " divisors is ");
Any Help will be appreciated. Thank you all for helping me out understand the problem hereThank you all participating to help this out.
This is the code and the detailed error message:
public class MostDivisors {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int N;
int maxDivisors;
int numWithMax;
maxDivisors = 1;
numWithMax = 1;
for(N = 2 ; N <= 10000 ; N++){
int D;
int divisorCount;
divisorCount = 0;
for(D=0; D <= N; D++){
if (N % D == 0)
divisorCount++;
if (divisorCount > maxDivisors){
maxDivisors = divisorCount;
numWithMax = N;
System.out.println("Among intergers between 1 and 10000,");
System.out.println("The maximum number of divisors is "+maxDivisors);
System.out.println("A number with " + maxDivisors + " divisors is ");
ERROR MESSAGE starts HERE:
java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
at MostDivisors.main(MostDivisors.java:30)
Exception in thread "main"
I do not think this is related to the JVM because other programs will compile and run successfully.
Any Help will be appreciated. Thanks -
My ipod has had a previous owner How do I change my ipods email address so that when I try to down load anything it asks for the previous owners password but when I go to my account it says its my email my account but not when I try to download can anyone please help me ????Plus it still has some of the previous owners pictures and videos on it that I want to delete and can't????? Also is there a way to kill the apps that u have used throughout the day the battery doesn't last long at all ??????
- How did you dlete stuff from the iPod? If you have a 1G or 2G iPod and deleted the stuff by going to Settings>Genera.>Reset>Erase aall contents and settings without being connected to a power source, the battery dies before he erase was comleted since it can take hour.
- In any event try the following:
- Connect to a chaging sour for three hours.
- Reset the iPod and then connect to the computer and try to restore va iTunes.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try placing the iPod in recovery moe and then try to restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Last try DFU made and restore.

My mackbook pro 13' A1278, has had multiple errors with the hard disk.
My mackbook pro 13' A1278, has had multiple errors with the hard disk. Now does not recognize the internal hard disk, but connect this HD using usb conector works fine.
So it's a hardware problem.
I'm really disappointePipfromvic,
have you tried installing Mavericks onto an external disk, and booting from the external disk using Startup Manager? If it runs well from an external disk, but continually crashes when running from the internal disk even after clean reïnstallations, then that could point to a faulty internal SATA cable as the culprit. -

What has suddenly gone wrong with Facetime? I'm using OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3
What has suddenly gone wrong with Facetime? I'm using OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.3
No, cannot revert to the original. Suddenly this new Facetime was imposed on me and it doesn't work. It's okay on a year old MacBook Pro, and it's ok in the iPhone 4S. Just not ok on the imac running on 10.6.3. Cannot try OS update suggested because I am currently 300 miles from the Mac and travelling so will have to wait until I get back. Reluctant to install mavericks because of all the complaints I have seen about incompatibilities. Appreciate the business reasons for constant OS updates, but businesses themselved would always rather remain with tried ant trusted software. I stopped using iMovie entirely because suddenly a new version was imposed that required re-leaening the whole process.

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Where it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program.
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into 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.

IPod Touch 1st Gen, Broken, with Product Service Plan. HELP, asap!
So, back in May 2008, I bought an 8GB iPod Touch.
Along with it, I bought a 5 year Product Service Plan.
Now, my iPod has had a lot of problems even after factory restoring.
I really want to get it fixed before I leave on a trip next month.
BUT, I'm unable to find the original receipt.
Is there a way that Best Buy has my receipt on file [a credit card was used] and verify that I was the original person who purchased the product?
Thanks!Yep. They can either look up the receipt by your CC# or you telephone number. Or you can wait and a community connector should be able to assist you.
If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun. -
i have a iphone 3 and there is things wrong with it can it be fixed and who do i talk to to get it fixed
Apple does not repair iPhones, but will replace the entire iPhone for a flat fee; see the Service Pricing section here:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/
There are independent iPhone repair services that may be able to do a repair for less, though of course it depends on what's wrong with it. Do a web search for "iPhone repair". Note, though, that if you elect to have the iPhone serviced by an unauthorized shop, all further support from Apple will be voided.
The iPhone 3G is pretty old now by smartphone standards, though, so you might want to consider putting your money toward a new, or at least newer, iPhone rather than spending to repair your current unit.

Itunes converrts videos for ipod but then thay have no SOUND!!! Help please
Itunes converrts videos for ipod but then thay have no SOUND!!! Help please
Just bought it a couple of days ago, and its doing this!!! why doed the videos now both on my ipod and itunes not have sound?Your source video file is probably muxed.
Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.

one of my iPhoto libraries just vanished. How do i get it back it had over 80,000 pics on it. Help please!!!
Simple, surefire fix: restore from your back up.
Anything else will require a lot more information. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.
