Need files off an old 7200/75 - Please help!
Hi, i've got an old Power Mac 7200/75 with no monitor, no keyboard/mouse, etc. I've been trying to source these items on craigslist and having little to no luck. I figured If i could get it running and go online, I could just email the files to myself since its mostly text files and some low-res image files.
Is there a way to pull the hard drive out and get an adaptor or something to hook it up to G5? Is there any better solution you can offer? I would really appreciate any help!
You will find information about how to open the computer in the user's guide (starting on page 138 in the 030-8844 edition here).
If you wish to give away the computer, it is also possible to erase the hard disk, and then reinstall an operating system. In order to securely erase the disk, use a formatting utility with the ability to overwrite the contents, such as Drive Setup 1.7.3 here (choose "Zero all data" under Initialization Options in the Functions menu). A special program (for example, Wipe Info from Norton Utilities, or the freeware application Burn 2.5) can be used, too.

File reverting to old save. Please help.
I tried to open a file I had saved and when I do so it is an old version of what I had saved. I tried opening a copy of the file that I had sent in an e-mail and it is reverting to the old save as well. Why is this happening?
Thanks Nancy O,
I have just employed WordPress Audio Player to do just as you suggest, but was leaving the old .wma option in case the flash players didn't do the job for some people.
Do you think that's unnecessary?
Regards,
steve

Subject: Do I need to use .wmx pages?
WMX is a playlist. WMA is the source file. If I click on a WMA, it will download to my system and if I do not have a windows compatible player installed on my system, I won't hear your media.
As long as you're updating your site anyway, now would be a good time to convert to more current MP3 audio. Do a Google search. You'll find converters all over the web.
If you embed a flash MP3 media player on your web page, people can hear the audio files almost immediately without waiting for the entire file to download. A much nicer user experience.

My PC computer was wiped (virus) including itunes. How do I transfer the many playlists and music on my ipod to the new re-installed itunes?? Ipod is synced to old itunes. I have all original music files on external hard drive. Please help?
New itunes is trying to wipe the ipod. But have many many playlists (many hours making) which I want to save. Any help would be appreciated.If you want to just extract the playlists from your iPod, plug it in iTunes. When it appears under devices, right->click on it and choose Export Playlists. Save them to a location such as your desktop and them import them into your library once you have copied and imported all of your music back into it.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

I need help!!! Did my iOS 6 update today, thought it was fine!! Then my friend text me and instead of saying Siobhain it says voicemail text message!! I've tried deleting her and adding her again, turning phone off etc etc!! Please help!!
I know of no way to remove encryption on iTunes backups if you've forgotton the password. If you've used the 4 digit PIN code to lock your iPhone in the past that can sometimes default as your "password" for this encryption in iTunes. Try that PIN or any PIN you've used in the past. If you don't use a lock maybe you played around with that feature once when you first got your phone....try "1,2,3,4" or anything you could have possibly tried.
As far as accessing older unencrypted backups you can try this software. I do not have any experience using it but it seems like it's what you need and is probably the easiest route for both voicemail and texts:

If you want to try to find voicemails using Terminal, I found this link as well:
http://mikereys.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/iphone-backup-restoring-visual-voice-ma il/
I know with AT&T, voicemails are only stored on their servers for 30 days so any voicemail older than that you would not have been able to access again.
Best of luck. -

I keep on getting this error when i try to copy files to my 2T Time Capsule, Please help im running out of space on my MacBook Pro....
The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.
A5. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that. -
I rented a movie and it shows up in my iTunes "Rented" section, but when I click to play it, it gives me an error message saying the movie can't be played because the original file can't be found. Please help!
Never mind I fixed it. Just in case anyone else has this problem, after you reinstall iTunes you have to delete all your old music, and if you have iTunes match all the songs you have saved on itunes match will display and you just have to download them to your Macbook.

When i disconnect my iPod 2nd Gen from my laptop, its display goes off and working freezes. Please help me.
The computer freezes? There may be something wrong with the USB port. If the laptop has more than one port, does this happen on any port? If you are disconnecting the shuffle cable from the computer, does it make any difference if you disconnect the shuffle at the other end of the cable first, then disconnect the cable from computer? Or if you currently disconnect the shuffle from cable first, try it the other way.
You may be able to work around this problem, if you get a self-powered USB hub. Something like this one
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/USB2HB7PRO/
There are many choices, but be sure to get one that has its own power supply. You can leave the shuffle cable connected to the hub, and connect the shuffle to the hub, instead of directly to the computer. This may provide a "buffer" for whatever is causing your laptop to shut off when the shuffle is disconnected. Since the hub has its own power supply, it will not rely on the computer for power to re-charge the battery. -

You need to connect to iTunes and restore.
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
You may need to put the device into recovery mode, this is covered in the link on this page.
Did you back up the device? -

Help! I just purchased a US sim card/monthly pre-paid plan (i am from Canada) as I am travelling in the states for a month, and when I went to restore the iphone, it didn't work. I can't find backup that i did right before the sim was changed. I really need the info that was there! Please help..
Hold on,
Have you talked to your carrier to confirm the unlock?
What was the procedure you did to unlock the phone?
Standard unlocking procedure once processed by the carrier:
Backup in iTunes
Erase the phone (ignore restore terminology here)
Plug the phone to the computer and then launch iTunes
Wait for unlock notification.
Restore the backup.
