My ipod wont turn on and displays a sad face with the support website. I've went through all the steps to fix it with no luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Please Help!

If the steps on the support site failed to correct the issue, it notes that the issue is likely hardware related with the iPod's hard drive, meaning you'll want to have it serviced/replaced either by Apple or a third party service.

    The Get Info. fields show up gray if the files is locked and iTunes knows it can't edit the file. Make sure the files are not marked as read only and, if necessary grant both your account and system full access to all files and subfolders of your media folder.
    You can set Part of a Compilation for multiple tracks from the Options tab of Get Info.
    See Grouping tracks into albums for tips on getting iTunes organized.

    What IOS and OS are you using Elissa.  I think from your post it used to work but has dropped off, is that correct or has it never worked?  If it did wotk has anything changed?  Check your wifi use with sopmething like istumbler to see if it is being used by neighbours etc?

  • I prepare chronologies in word, and i am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But somtimes i need a cell to wrap onto the next page but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    I prepare chronologies in word, and I am trying to do the same in pages using tables and cells. But sometimes I need a cell to wrap onto the next page because the contents are bigger than the page or the space left on the page,  but I can't work out how to do it - any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    What are the different opinions on why pages should not achieve this?
    As far as I know, Apple is free to choose to offer this or that feature.
    They never said that they want to clone Word or even compete with it.
    Differences between tables in both worlds are numerous.
    In Pages (or Numbers)
    - we can't sort a single column
    - we can't sort by row
    - we can't insert or remove a single cell
    - a cell can't cross pages boundaries
    If I understand well these design choices match :
    ++-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-++
    Apple Human Interface Guidelines:
    Apply the 80 Percent Solution
    During the design process, if you discover problems with your product design, you might consider applying the 80 percent solution‚ that is, designing your software to meet the needs of at least 80 percent of your users. This type of design typically favors simpler, more elegant approaches to problems.
    If you try to design for the 20 percent of your target audience who are power users, your design may not be usable by the other 80 percent of users. Even though that smaller group of power users is likely to have good ideas for features, the majority of your user base may not think in the same way. Involving a broad range of users in your design process can help you find the 80 percent solution.

  • I can't play videos (youtube for example) unless it is in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video only shows in full screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Also, the error console shows all sorts of different errors. Though, alot of error parsing values.

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you
    have any plug-ins installed on one computer but not
    the other? In the Finder, go to each of the following
    folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/
    Not Found
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    Not Found
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    Smart Crash Reports Folder / Smart CrashReports.bundle
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    MailRecent.mailbundle
    > I have a number of Mail Rules in
    place which place messages
    of certain topics in specific Smart
    Mailboxes
    This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
    to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
    mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
    conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
    them to appear there.
    OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
    The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
    I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.
    Note: For those not
    familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers
    to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any
    of the folders referred to in this post by copying
    the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder
    in the Finder, and pasting the folder path
    there.

  • I'm trying to plug an external audio device (tape deck) into the audio input. In the sound preferences pane I'm only getting the built in microphone as an option. I tried restarting without effect. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    For some reason the option to select switch the audio port to 'input' is not coming up.
    Thanks.

    If your computer is running Snow Leopard, and is not at 10.6.8, you could use
    Software Update to get final Combo Update 10.6.8 v. 1.1 for Snow Leopard.
    Aside from that (you may have already done so) here is a free-running
    application that may help your line-in audio, by the name of LineIn
    http://www.rogueamoeba.com/freebies/ and it suggests possibilities.
    There also are USB input methods using those for audio; not sure what
    is still available, a few great ones no longer were. One from Belkin a few
    years ago, called the iMic, offered great options over USB.
    Hopefully the free application can help.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • My device is recognized by itunes but won't sync and failed the sync diagnostic test.  I've restarted the computer, reset the ipod . . . nothing works.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    iTunes shows the iPod is connected but doesn't show it in the drop down menu under Devices, and the "sync" option is grayed out, so I can't sync the nano with iTunes.  I ran the diagnostic tests and it shows the device is connected, but it failed the sync test - it said nothing was connected, even though it passed the connectivity test.  We've had the iPod for a few months but this is the first time we've tried to do anything with it.  It's fully charged but just won't sync.  I turned it off, turned it on.  I reset it.  I restarted the computer.  I'm not sure where to go from here.

    A couple of things to check:
    Are there any backups listed in iTunes/settings/devices? Since backing up is the first step of the sync process, iTunes might be stuck trying to read the content of the last backup in order to replace it with the new one.
    Copy the whole backup folder to a safe place, delete the backup from the list afterwards and make sure that the folder has no content after that. The folder is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files
    After that, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose "backup". If you can backup manually, transfer your purchases the same way, to copy apps and purchased media to your iTunes. If this worked, you should be able to sync again.
    To speed up the sync process, copy your photos to your computer prior to the sync and delete them on your ipod before you start.

  • I am having trouble getting rid of tabs. They appear everytime I launch Firefox. I must have clicked "Save and Quite" at some point in time. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

    For instance, there is a Facebook tab of a page I visited a long long time ago.

    This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js .
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore

  • When I open a new tab, an internet search option pops up that Idid not OK or install. I can't find where to get rid of it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    When I open a new tab, I just want it to be blank. I think it may be hijacked but I can't find how to delete/erase the internet search that pops up instead. It's called internet search and just has a magnifying glass as a logo.

    Clearing the cache fixed this for me. Before doing this though, I HIGHLY recommend booting into safe mode (assuming you are using Windows) and run the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php].
    UPDATE: Well...that worked for a while. That page is back. I still recommend scanning your machine if you have not yet done so.
    UPDATE 2: I've found that the application causing the issue is "Cartoonly", which you should see as an extension. You can't remove it from Firefox, you can only disable it. Search your entire computer for "Cartoonly" (even if you have ran MBAM as suggested above) and delete EVERYTHING having to do with that garbage. Your new tabs should be clean and the extension should be gone as well. :)

  • Safari will not launch- any help would be greatly appreciated

    This past week my safari began to fail to launch. It worked fine monday, on my friends home wireless. However when we booted it up Tuesday at our home-also wireless- it would not open. All other internet access works fine-ie ichat, itunes etc., but we can't get it to open with anything. When you click the icon it bounces as it were about to launch but never gets the black carrot under it. I opened the system activity monitor, and it also does not show it launching. I attempted to reinstall it using the number 2 setup disk, but that didn't seam to make a difference. It also will not launch if clicking on a saved html file nor on a hyperlink.... I tried moving the safari file folder and preferences file out of the library onto the desktop and restarting it(I had read that on a different post) but that had no effect...As I am used to working on a plain old IBM computer I'm not sure how else to trouble shoot the mac as its my girlfriends... any help would be greatly appreciated as we can't access the internet on hers to even download netscape or internet explorer

    Your steps so far are OK but you may want to try:
    1 Trash your user library Caches folder (House Icon with short name in Finder window (hard drive window)GOTO:House icon > Library folder > caches folder
    2 Trash the com.apple.Safari.plist file in User library > preferences folder > Safari.plist as well as removing the library Safari folder its self.
    3 you can selectivly re-install Safari 2.0 from your OS Tiger Install disk 1, (see Knowledge base article 301229 for how to just select the Safari Application) without doing a complete system Archive and Install.
    4. Create a new Test user account on the system and test how Safari responds in the Test user, see if its a user related issue and not system issue.
    5. Still no Safari response? have to do an Archive and install (not preserving user and network settings)article 107120
    PS. Issue may be related to actual internet connection connectivity, power cycle cable modem and router or airport if using one as well as the computer(keep unplugged for 3-5 min) and plug the cable modem in and then the router/airport then power on the computer. Do the Airport Admin utiliy (applications, utilities on HD_1)update.
    - do a hard reset of airport knowledge base article 108044(Express base) and 107451 (Extreme base)
    - Check with internet provider for connection issues "cannot find server" ect.

    OR use this method
    1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen)and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the"Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
    3.You may let go when you see the silver Applelogo.
    Thats all Folks!!

  • My ipod wont turn on and only flashes the apple logo what do i ?

    not too sure what going on, my ipod wont turn on and when looking at the screen all u see is the apple logo flashing from time too time. i tried resetting it but that didand if so how? nothing. do i now have to do a factory reset

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
