The back light turns on and I can hear the click wheel but no apple sign comes up on the screen. Any guidance would be much appreciated ;)
It's possible that your iPod is working to some extent (since the backlight is on and the click wheel makes a sound when used), but the LCD screen is not working. First, try doing a Reset (which restarts the iPod)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1320
Even if it is still not working, does anything change after doing the Reset?
If that does not help, when you connect it to your computer's USB and run iTunes, does it appear in the sidebar under DEVICES? If it does, select it in iTunes and try doing a Restore. The Restore button is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the iPod, reinstall its software, and set it to default settings.
If the iPod does not appear in iTunes when connected, or if doing a Restore does not solve the problem, the cause is likely to be hardware-related. -

My internet is still working, but it's very intermittent. This happened after I updated the firmware a few days ago.
Did you remember to completely power cycle the entire network?
You would want to do this after any update or change to the network.
If you did not do this yet......things are out of sequence.
Power off everything on the network.....all devices.....power down order is not important
Wait a few minutes
Start the modem first and let it run a minute or two by itself
Start the next device connected to the modem the same way
Work your way out on the network starting each device about a minute apart
Check the network -

When I use firefox to get on to the web I get the following message everytime: "Alert: Could not initialize the applications security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your applications pforfile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security feactures." Once I click the "OK button" at the bottom of the alert box firefox starts but does not act right. For instance it will not let me look for software updates. When I click on "Check for Updates" from the "Help" drop down menu I get a message stating: "There were problems checking for, downloading, or installing this update. Firefox could not be updated because: Update XML file malformed (200). You can update firefox manually by visiting this link and downloading the latest version."

i have an iod touch and aparently the software driver has been removed and i had it restored to factory settings as i bought it from someone,what does this mean and how do i solve the problem
Just what error message are you getting?
Are you trying to redownload them directly to the iPod?
If you are getting an error message that included Open GL 2 or similar that means that the app requires that but only the 3G and later iPods support that. -

Wi-Fi is turned on but is not connected to a network. What does this mean? How do I fix it?
Hi, Kozou. Welcome to the forums!
Connect your computer to the Express's Ethernet port and open AirPort Utility. Does this allow AirPort Utility to find your Express?
If so, go through the setup process. After the Express restarts, disconnect it from the computer and connect it to your DSL, cable modem, or whatever provides your internet connection. Wait a minute or so. The light on the Express should turn green.
Now tell your MBP to join the wireless network created by the Express. You can do this using the AirPort menu or the Network pane of System Preferences.
Does this work?
