  • IPOD WON'T TURN ON EVEN AFTER TRYING TO RESET IT

    PLS. HELP! MY IPOD WITH VIDEO WON'T TURN ON EVEN AFTER TRYING TO RESET IT. THE BATTERY IS FULL. IT WILL JUST TURN ON AFTER 24HRS. WHEN THE BATTERY IS DRAINED EVEN WITHOUT USING IT BECAUSE IT IS IN FROZEN STATE. FOR INSTANCE AFTER DISCONNECTING FROM THE COMPUTER SAFELY AFTER CHARGING IT I KEPT IT OPEN BUT WHEN IT TURNED OFF AUTOMATICALLY IT WILL NOT TURN ON.

    Ok well, if you do not have the Ipod starter disk, you can’t do very much to save it anymore. It is completely gone.
    At this point I would recommend you calling Apple and setting up a repair. I would suggest you buy their warrantee plan, ($50 and good from 2 years) and it starts as soon as you buy the plan, NOT when you got your Ipod. The reason I would suggest that is, because if they deny your problem (like they did to me 5 time before finally replacing mine) it will save you a LOT of money. There may also be further issues as well with your Ipod.
    Apples SoS number is:
    1-800-767-2775
    Open 6am-6pm EST.
    They might even have a few ideas on how to fix it as well!
    As for “Viruses” I would highly doubt it. Viruses are programs designed to destroy certain parts of computer. Such as, a virus that destroys windows computer, does not do anything to Mac computer. It does not have the same components. The same thing goes for Ipod, PSP, etc. Files my contain viruses in them, but it would not effect the product in most cases. Only if you transfer the file on it to another computer, could it do anything.
    Your problem is, most likely your ipod just broke. Or should I say, just stopped working. Ipod’s are notorious at doing such things. Apple will take care of it. BUT GET THE EXTENDED WARRANTY! That is the only way to make sure they fix it. It is cheaper than buying a $350-$400 new 60 gig Video.
    Good luck my friend, God Life

  • I can't find the reset firefox command button - even after trying the menu and the trouble-shooting page as per the directions.

    I want to reset firefox but all I get to after following the directions in Mozilla support is every more descriptions/explanations of what the commands mean. But I never get to the actual command 'reset firefox'. Where is it?

    By way of background, this is the article on Reset describing what it does, what you keep, what you lose, and how to do it: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]].
    So... is the button missing? Open the support page using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    The Reset button usually is in the upper right corner of the page in its own little box. Missing?
    By the way, why do you want to reset?

  • Firefox continually hangs even after trying the solutions listed here, and in other sites, and I can't find any common link to pinpoint what is causing it.

    I love Firefox but I may have no choice but to try Chrome instead. Over the past couple of weeks the version of Firefox I have installed on my Lenovo Edge 15 latop (which is the most current version of Firefoxc), hangs several times an hour, for approx a minute each time. I have tried to locate the cause of the problem by eliminating the websites I commonly visit, but it seems that it does not matter what website I visit, it continues to happen. I have even tried loading Firefox in safe mode and it still makes no difference. And this problem is only affecting Firefox, and none of my other programs are affected. I have used resource monitor to try and locate the problem and, when this problem occurs, Firefox is reported as taking up 25% of CPU consumption. I am using Windows 7.

    I have a Mac and have tried the suggestion above with the places.sqlite but it DID NOT HELP! FIREFOX IS STILL HANGING!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been a real fan of firefox for several years, but lately it's just plain annoying!!! I have to force quit FF several times a day. I THINK I'M GOING TO SWITCH TO SAFARI until you guys get your act together soon :(

  • Firefox keeps crashing even after trying the suggestions in your helpful articles.

    I get this error message: Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.
    Firefox crashes within a few minutes of being on Internet. Most Web pages crash. I need to open multiple tabs to work, and it always crashes soon after I start to work. This began after updating to 4. I replaced 4 with the older version, but the problem keeps happening. This is part of the crash message I get, but it's crashed several times & reports aren't exactly the same. I also disabled Silverlight plugin, another recommended solution. That didn't work either.

    That looks like a problem with your BitDefender AV software (BdProvider.dl, avcuf32.dll)
    You can try to disable BD extensions or check advanced settings for Firefox in BD.
    You can also try to contact BD for support.
    Quote: ''I ran the sessions in safe mode and it did not crash, so it is not my add-ons.''
    If Firefox didn't crash in Safe Mode then it is likely caused by an extension.

  • My imac would noy start, not even after trying the unplugging or the alt-command-P-R. It makes a sound but the screen stays black.

    My imac does not start!!! Ive tried unplugging it, pressing the power button and plugging it back as well as the command-control-P-R.

    Hello
    you can try boot in single user mode by hold at start up CMD-S key on keyboard ,see if a comande line interface is show on screen
    try use D key on start up see if Apple Hardware Test is launch
    try  plug an external display if you can
    try boot with ALT key see if bootmanager is show
    if none of thouse methode show anything on screen your imac probably need to be screen serviced

    This restarts the iPod, like rebooting a computer.

  • My Macbook Mavericks pro does connect well to a data projector, even after following the process recommended, what is the optimum display settings? Has anybody else had this problem, I'm close to going back to PC's

    You said " digital AV Adapter and thunderbolt". Do you mean Thunderbolt/min displayport to HDMI adapter?
    It appears you are using the free version of the Display Menu app.
    What does the Apple Display properties show? System Preferences>Displays>Display show?
    Look at the projector/go to the manufacturer's support site and find the native resolution of the projector.
    Googling for Sori data projector id not produce any hits

    Are you sure that the iPod isn't dead on battery? Try leaving it charging for 3 horus on your USB port.
    Have you tried connecting your iPod to your computer for about 10 seconds, then disconnecting it right afterward?
    Also, be sure to try the resetting quite a few times. Sometimes, after alot of attempts, the iPod will work again.
    If your iPod doesn't even seem to be responding to resetting, please check that your "hold" switch isn't on. (orange-colored). If it is, switch it to off (grey-colored area).

  • Installing ipod nano on a windows computer after it has been used on a Mac

    I am trying to get an ipod Nano to work on windows after it was originally synched to a MacBook.
    I have iTunes 8, and we've already unistalled and reinstalled it once. iTunes recognizes the iPod, and says "iTunes has detected a Macintosh formatted iPod. You must restore this iPod before you can use it on windows." When I try to click the "Restore" button in iTunes, it generates an error message that says the iPod cannot be updated because I'm not connected to the iternet....but I am.
    Ideas?

    PS I know that sun's Jar files are supposed to be
    executable on win32 platforms with JRE2 installed;
    however, I tested it out on some computers with that
    runtime installed(by the installer progrma from sun)
    and for some reason or another, it didn't do anything
    when I clicked on the jar archive...That's because you didn't have the main-class in the manifest file.
    That's the easiest way, you have a jar and a double click on win and it runs.

    If you do not find a solution in the iPod nano (6th generation) - User Guide, suggest that you call AppleCare if still under warranty or take a trip to your local Apple Store or AASP.

    my ipad has the apple frozen even after reset. what do i do?

    Can you please specify more, what generation and is it wifi or wifi and cellular?
    The best thing to do with all ipad's is try ro set it back to factory setting, go into itunes, open the screen that displays your ipad and press, reset r factory settings or something like that.
    Remember to make a backup first! Otherwise you will lose all your files.

  • My iPod keeps 'freezing' mid play, even after re-booting.

    Do you have a 6G Nano?  If so, this is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure you cannot see any silver still showing from the headphone's plug.  It may require a little extra force to get the headphones to become fully inserted.  You should hear a sort of clicking noise indicating that they have been fully seated.
    Also check the headphone port from a damage or debris.
