New Firmwear

I know that the SDK and the ability to use 3rd party apps is set to release late February, but does anybody know what else will be available with the new firmwear update?

No, no one who knows will say, and no one who doesn't know can say. Speculation is fruitless and likely to lead to disappointment (and also violates the terms of use of the forum).
The SDK is NOT a firmware upgrade; it is a tool that will allow Apple-approved developers to create native applications for the iPhone. Once developers have it there will most likely be a delay of several months before authorized apps start appearing.

Problem upgrading Vision:M firmwear; error? please help

Windows XP wasn't recognizing my ZVM when i plugged it into the usb port to upgrade the firmwear. so, i opened systems>drivers>hardware and reinstalled the software. the computer immediately found software that allowed the player to be recognized by the computer--triumph!?i downloaded the firmwear v..62.02_0.0.23 and thought it wasn't going alright. unfortunately, when it was done,?the computer?said there was an error and that it could not fully download the firmwear. when i restared the player, though there wasn't a firmwear error anymore, it still wouldn't turn on. so, i put it into safety mode and saw that the firmwear was supposedly downloaded.?if the new firmwear is downloaded, why isn't the player working?!
i've had it for a little over 6 months, and this is ridiculous. can anyone help me find use for this nearly $300 paper weight?

Download Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
You downloaded an incremental updater. You needed the combo updater above. The updaters cannot install a full version of OS X. For that you need the Snow Leopard installer DVD that came with your computer.

I NEED HELP WITH KERNEL ERROR THINGS

So...yesterday I was on the Apple website looking up why my computer shuts off randomly and I was going to download new firmwear but it said that I needed to download Mac OS X 10.4.8 first...(I have Mac OS X 10.4.6) So I started to download it and I left the room. When I came back to check on the progress it had turned off and whenever I try to turnit back on it says "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the restart button" and in the background it says:
panic(cpu 0 caller 0x0039BDDF): Unable to find driver for this platform: "ACPI".
Debugger called: <panic>
Backtrace, Format - Frame : Return Address (4 potential args on stack)

...and a buch of other stuff and then...

Can you help me get my computer to turn on again??? I've tried restarting it multiple ways and am at a loss.

Hi,
the XLabs have a good article on how to resolve Kernel Panics: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
'Reboot while depressing C' means that you put the OSX DVD 1 that came with your Mac into the optical drive; restart your Mac from the Apple-Menu and during the restart hold down the 'C'-key on your keyboard.
That way your Mac is not booted from the internal harddisk but from the OSX DVD.
Good Luck

Problem with Zen Micro headphone j

The music played is quieter and individual sounds such as vocals cannot be heard unless i push down on the headphones. I've heard this is a common problem for Creative mp3 players which is unfortunate because i have never had any other problem. My warrantee has just ran out which makes the problem even worse. I've sent e-mails to play.com and creative customer support to see if i can either return it or get it fixed as this is obviously a design flaw rather than something caused by misuse. Is there anything else i can do?

Just got an e-mail from Creative, did all that recovery mode stuff, downloaded new firmwear and wiped all my music off of it and guess what, the jack still doesn't work properly :angryo you think they'll fix it for free? i hope so!

I was updating my ipad and now its stick on the apple logo

Try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo again. It should take about 10-15seconds to reboot.

WRT54G ver 2 - Shows Im connected to wireless but cant get on internet

I just moved into a new apartment and am having trouble getting my wireless router to work. I just got my cable internet set up and can get on with the modem fine but cant get the wireless to work so my roommate can get online. I think i was able to get online when i had the modem connected to the router with a ethernet cord going from router to computer but cant even get that now. I tried some of the FAQ guides like "setting up a router with cable internet' and 'seting up wirless settings on a linksys router" and cloning my MAC and downloading new firmwear for the router but still no luck.
Everything worked fine a couple days ago at my old house. When i search for wirless networks on my mac I see my linksys and it has full connection. When i go to it it shows green lights for ethernet,network settings and ISP but internet and Server are red. I would really like to get wireless internet up so me and my roommate dont have to share the modem tonight so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Bypass the router and connect the computer directly to the modem. Make sure that you can access the Internet through the modem.
Connect the modem to the Internet port and the same computer to Ethernet port 1 on the router.
Check the lights on the router. You will see Power, Port 1, Wireless and Internet lights on the router.
Turn OFF the Airport on your computer.
Press and hold the reset button on your router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and restart your computer.
Open the internet browser and in the address bar type http://192.168.1.1 and log in to the router setup page.
Go to MAC address clone sub tab. Enable the MAC address clone and click on Clone my PC's MAC. Save the settings.
Unplug the power to the router and modem. First plug in the power to the modem. Wait for 1 minute and then plug in the power to the router. Wait for a minute and then try to access the Internet on your computer.
If you are still not able to access the Internet then open the setup page of the router again and check the Internet IP address on the status page.
If you are not getting Internet IP address then router and modem are not communicating with each other.

Encryption key

as everyone knows the newer ipods have a encryption built in to them. i personally would like to know why.i would also like to remove it. it is my ipod i wish to do with it as i please. it is not illeagle for me to remove it. i would like to find an email address or something equivalent to talk to some one to receive directions on how to remover the encryption. i do no want nor will i sell this information to anyone it is for my sole use. it is only a matter of time before it is found out my some one else

i thought a lot of people know that the newer ipods had an encrypted firmware, this might help explain it
As of 5 August 2006, only the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation iPods are officially supported by iPodLinux, While later generations work fine for many uses of iPodLinux. As of now, there is Installer 2.3 for Microsoft Windows or Linux which can install on any generation iPod (except for the iPod shuffle and iPod nano 2nd generation). As of March 11, 2007, iPodLinux does not work on the new iPod firmware included with the second generation iPod nano, and installer 2 cannot be used to install iPodLinux on 5.5th generation iPods. Update: The newest versions of the installer have been able to install on 5.5G iPods. bucause the newer firmwears are encrypted

I just got new iphone 4 but it tells me to restore the phone wen i plug in my computer.. then half way thru the restoring on the "firmwear" part it stops an says error "9?? wats the go there?? its driving me insane...

i just got new iphone 4 but it tells me to restore the phone wen i plug in my computer.. then half way thru the restoring on the "firmwear" part it stops an says error "9?? wats the go there?? its driving me insane...

Let's first define what "new" means. Was it purchased from Apple or your authorized carrier, and it came in a shrink wrapped box? Or is it only new to you, and you don't know its history?
Assuming it truly is a new, never used phone, Error 9 means that the USB connection to the phone is intermittent. Do the following:
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (10.4) - if not, download and install it from htp://www.apple.com/itunes
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall software
Disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse
Connect the cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub; do not connect the other end to the phone yet (If your computer is a desktop or tower and has ports on both front and back us a port on the back)
Launch iTunes
Connect the phone to the other end of the cable
If the phone is recognized in iTunes proceed with the Restore
If the phone is NOT recognized by iTunes:
Disconnect the cable from the phone (leave connected to the computer)
Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen goes blank, then IMMEDIATELY release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button
Connect the cable to the phone while holding the HOME button
Wait for iTunes to recognize the phone, then release the HOME button (this may take several minutes of holding)
If you still have a problem after these steps take the phone to Apple for exchange.

NEW Zen Stone Plus does not work

It looked like it started to charge, but then it just died and Windows does not detect the dri've. I have tried hooking it up to another computer but no go!
I've tried all the troubleshooting on the page and nothing seems to work, it's just completely dead even though it's brand new. I wasn't even able to upload songs to it.
any tips? or should I just send the player back? The problem is that I am in Iceland and bought it in Toronto, Canada so I would like to try everything before sending it.
thanks in advance!

I used these instructions and got all the way to reloading the firmwear. Then it said to restart the comp and I did and after that nothing! What am I doing wrong?
Hi everyone
There is a Recovery Mode for the flash-memory players although it is different from the Rescue Mode for the HDD players - that is used for carrying out maintenance operations on the player but Recovery Mode for the flash-memory players is just a different way of connecting your player to your PC when it won't normally connect, for example, when the firmware has become corrupted and the player won't start and isn't recognised by the PC. It is in fact a way of communicationg directly with the STMP3500 chipset that these players use without needing any additional firmware.
Creative themselves called it Recovery Mode - it was first seen when Creative posted the instructions for a previous firmware upgrade that could not be run when connected normally. For the N200 it was in the instructions to upgrade to version .5.0.
Here's a line from the instructions for the latest N200 firmware upgrade, v.20.04:
When prompted to set your player in Recovery mode, disconnect your player from your computer.
Here are the instructions:
. Download and install the Mass Storage Drivers from the website.
2. Press and hold the Play button while connecting your player to the PC. If you have a one-piece player then remove the battery first.
3. Keep pressing Play until the New Hardware Wizard starts - this will only happen the first time you put your player into Recovery Mode.
4. Complete the New Hardware Wizard.
To check that you are in Recovery Mode open Device Manager (right-click My Computer and choose Properties, then the Hardware tab and Device Manager) and look for a Player Recovery Device entry.
When in Recovery Mode you can reload the firmware.

New DVR Issues (First Run, Channel Switching, etc.)

I've spent the last 30 minutes trying to find answers through the search with no luck, so sorry if I missed something.
I recently switched to FIOS from RCN cable in New York. I've gone through trying to setup my DVR and am running into issues and was hoping for some answers.
1. I setup two programs to record at 8PM, I was watching another channel at the time and only half paying attention. Around 8:02 I noticed a message had popped up asking if I would like to switch channels to start recording. I was expecting it to force it to switch like my old DVR, but in this case it didn't switch and I missed the first two minutes of one of the shows. I typically leave my DVR on all day and just turn off the TV, this dual show handling will cause issues with that if I forget to turn off the DVR. Is there a setting I can change that will force the DVR to choose one of the recording channels?
2. I setup all my recordings for "First Run" because I only want to see the new episodes. One show I setup was The Daily Show on comedy central, which is shown weeknights at 11pm and repeated 3-4 times throughout the day. My scheduled recordings is showing all these as planned recordings even though only the 11pm show is really "new". Most of the shows I've setup are once a week so they aren't a problem, but this seems like it will quickly fill my DVR. Any fixes?
Thanks for the help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I came from RCN about a year ago. Fios is different in several ways, not all of them desirable. Here are several ways to get--and fix--unwanted recordings from a series recording setup.
Some general principles.
Saving changes. When you originally create a series with options, or if you go back to edit the options for an existing series, You MUST save the Series Options changes. Pretty much everywhere else in the user interface, when you change an option, the change takes effect immediately--but not in Series Options. Look at the Series Options window. Look at the far right side. There is a vertical "Save" bar, which you must navigate to and click OK on to actually save your changes. Exiting the Series Options window without having first saved your changes loses all your attempted changes--immediately.
Default Series Options. This is accessed from [Menu]--DVR--Settings--Default Series Options. This will bring up the series options that will automatically be applied to the creation of a NEW series. The options for every previously created series will not be affected by a subsequent modification of the Default Series Options. You should set these options to the way you would like them to be for the majority of series recordings that you are likely to create. Be sure to SAVE your changes. This is what you will get when you select "Create Series Recording" from the Guide. When creating a new series recording where you think that you may want options different from the default, select "Create Series with Options" instead. Series Options can always be changed for any individual series set up later--but not for all series at once.
Non-series recordings. With Fios you have no directly available options for these. With RCN and most other DVRs, you can change the start and end times for individual episodes, including individual episodes that are also in a series. With Fios, your workarounds are to create a series with options for a single program, then delete the series later; change the series options if the program is already in a series, then undo the changes you made to the series options later; or schedule recordings of the preceding and/or following shows as needed.
And now, to the unwanted repeats.
First, make sure your series options for the specific series in question--and not just the series default options--include "First Run Only". If not, fix that and SAVE. Then check you results by viewing the current options using the Series Manager app under the DVR menu.
Second, and most annoying, the Guide can have repeat programs on your channel tagged as "New". It happens. Set the series option "Air Time" to "Selected Time". To make this work correctly, you must have set up the original series recording after selecting the program in the Guide at the exact time of a first run showing (11pm, in your case), and not on a repeat entry in the Guide. Then, even it The Daily Show is tagged as New for repeat showings, these will be ignored.
Third, another channel may air reruns of the program in your series recording, and the first showing of a rerun episode on the other channel may be tagged as "New". These can be ignored in your series if you set the series option "Channel" to "Selected Channel". Related to this, if there is both an SD and HD channel broadcasting you series program, you will record them both if the series option "Duplicates" is set to "Yes". However, when the Channel option is set to "Selected Channel", the Duplicates Option is always effectively "No", regardless of what shows up on the options screen.
As for you missing two minutes, I have sereral instances in which two programs start recording at the same time. To the best of my recollection, whenever the warning message has appeared, ignoring it has not caused a loss of recording time. You might have an older software version. Newest is v.1.8. Look at Menu--Settings--System Info. Or, I might not have noticed the loss of minutes. I regularly see up to a minute of previous programming at the start of a recording, or a few missing seconds at the beginning or end of a recording. There are a lot of possibilities for that, but the DVR clock being incorrect is not one of them. With RCN, the DVR clocks occasionally drifted off by as much as a minute and a half.

New Phone

My husband used my iCloud account before I had an iPhone. Now that I have one, I am still finding information from when my husband used the account. I try to backup my iCloud account and it says I do not have enough space, but I know I still 3.9GB left. I log on to the iCloud website and I can not find any record of my phone or my husband's phone on the iCloud website. I want to clear everything he had on the phone prior to me using it starting in December. Is there a way to do that?

Done properly, you won't lose anything. You would not be able to migrate your existing iCloud email account to the new account, but you could still use it for email as a secondary account on your phone if you want to.
You would need a new Apple ID to create the new account, which requires a verifiable email account to set up. You can easily get a free Gmail address for this purpose. You can create a new Apple ID by going here.
To migrate your data to a new account, you start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. This is necessary because photo stream photos cannot be moved to another account and will be deleted from your phone when you delete the existing account.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Notes is the other data set that cannot be migrated to a new account, and therefore must be recreated.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. When you turn on Mail you will be asked to choose a new iCloud email account if you want to use iCloud for email. If you want to continue to use the email account from your current iCloud account, you can add it to your phone by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with your existing iCloud account ID and turning Mail on.
Ringtones and Music are not effected by this change. You can continue to use your current ID for your iTunes purchases; it does not need to be the same as your iCloud ID. Of course, if you want to rid yourself of your husband's purchased list, you could change your iTunes ID as well. I wouldn't recommend this, however, as then you would be managing two IDs for your purchased media. This is because all existing purchases will remain tied to your existing iTunes ID and future purchases will be tied to your new ID.

I am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier

i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos

Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Firefox logo missing from new browser; would like to see it so I can know at a glance which browser I am using.

Bring back the logo or something else to allow quick identification of browser. Chrome doesn't have its logo in the browser either so now it going be harder to tell between the two. Is this a contest to see which can be more self effacing?

You can click the 3-bar Firefox menu button and open the Customize window.<br />
At the bottom of this window there is a button to enable showing the title bar.
