New Mini replaced defective one - will it work on my cpu?

My 1-month old iPod mini lost a pixel in the display. The wonderful Apple folks gave me a new one 10 minutes after walking into the store. I just learned about nano but that's beside the point.
So - the question - I had registered my OLD ipod mini (with its own serial number, of course) with apple and set up itunes using my OLD ipod mini. Now that I have a new iPod mini, what changes do I need to make to have it work on my PC? Do I have to do the whole 'de-authorize' thing? Do I need to go into some profile somewhere and update the info (serial number, specifically) to match my new machine?
I would have already tried juicing it up already instead of posting here but I am currently charging the new mini before it's ready to take 4 gigs of songs.

You don't have to deauthorize anything. All you need to do is to format the iPod for Windows use.
If you don't already have it, download and install the latest iPod Updater, then restart your computer.
Run the updater program, connect your iPod when prompted (not before), and follow the set up procedure, and you should be good to go.

I have a ipod mini from 2005, it will only work on my charger. I did get a new i pod touch 4, how do i get the music from the old mini to the new touch. I have never put any music on it myself, my ex-husband did it all and has the password. I never new it. I'm sure not about to call him and I don't think he'd give it to me anyway. Please help!!!

I don't think the password will matter, because you can't use anything on the iPod or in iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
The simple software "lock" used on iPods should not prevent you from off-loading the song files. Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library. Then, you can do a Restore on the iPod to give it a fresh start and sync it (and the iPod touch) as desired.
NOTE: For songs purchased by you from the iTunes Store, you can also re-download them to your computer at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen. The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS.

I buy the new iphone 6 in France, will it work in Switzerland ? Thank you all

I live in Switzerland, but if I buy the new iphone 6 in France, will it work in Switzerland ? Thank you all

Yes and the warranty will be valid ,it is same model as long as it comes from Apple and is NOT carrier locked

My iPhone has been badly damaged and I cannot get the screen to work. I want to do a backup to transfer to my new phone but the backup will not work because the phone is locked. Can I input my lock code to the phone via the computer to allow a backup?

Macbook 13" Core 2 Duo, Mini DVI to DVI will not work (Mini DVI to VGA OK)

I've recently purchased a used Macbook 13" with a Mini DVI out display port. When I try to use a Mini DVI to DVI adapter to an Acer X223W (or a few other Acer / Dell models), the Macbook screen either blinks blue to white constantly or doesn't do anything at all. When I use a Mini DVI to VGA adapter, it works fine, however, the MAC does not give an option for my monitors native resolution (1680 x 1050).
At first I thought there was a physical issue with the Mini DVI port, however the VGA adapter works fine. I've also tried a new DVI adapter in case the first one was defective - same results.
Am I missing something here? I don't think there are options to upgrade drivers on a MAC (I'm semi-new to the platform).
Thanks in advance!

What happens if you try just the monitor, e.g. keep the lid down on the MB? The MB should be attached to it's AC adapter to try this. Also, some kind of USB device will be needed to wake up the closed MB. Pretty much anything hot-plugged into a USB port on the MB will cause it to wake up. Would be curious to know if a DVI monitor works under those conditions.

HP Photosmart PSC 2400 all in one - will it work? or what else?

I have been using an old eMac connected (by cable) to my printer (HP PSC 2400 Photosmart all in one), wirelessly connected to my macbook and mini for printing. Well, i think the eMac just bit the dust. Can I hook the HP to the airport extreme? And if not, what printer WILL work, cuz i really can't afford a new desktop computer right now. I have:
airport extreme 802.11g
version 5.7
HP PSC 2400 Photosmart all in one
OS 10.5.6 on:
macbook black 13in 2GHz intel duo
2GB ram 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM
There are also a couple airport expresses in other parts of our property so that the mac mini out in the barn can connect, if that makes any difference.

thanks - guess i need a new printer.
Another question - if i plug a printer into an airport express that is between my laptop and the airport extreme (which is actually the one connected to the cable modem), will that work (and will it still keep the network going)? CAN i even plug one into the express? Guess i should have looked that up too.

Can I anchor the new mini-player to one screen while keeping iTunes in another on iTunes 11?

I like having my main iTunes window on another screen while I'm browsing so that it doesn't distract me when I'm working. But I like the new mini-player & I ilke the fact that it notifies which song is playing each time it skips to the next one. So what I'd like is to keep the mini-player anchored to one screen (on Mountan Lion) while keeping the main iTunes window or the album artwork window in another one where I only need to go when I want to interact with iTunes in more detail.
This way I can keep the mini-player tucked away in one corner while I browse & I have quick access to the controls & the song info if I need it without having the full screen there. I know that I don't need to have the main iTunes window open all the time & I can simply Option-Command-M to toggle between the 2. But I'd like to have (if possible) the main window open as well on another screen. I have dragged only the mini-player to another screen but iTunes is anchored to the other one (via the dock options) so when I restart iTunes, both players (main & mini) open in the 2nd (non-browser) screen by default.

Thanks for the replies. The only problem with this solution is that any time I restart iTunes, it'll revert back to normal settings and both will pop up on the same desktop. As opposed to when you anchor it to a particluar desktop so that it open there not matter where you are when you launch the software.
I realise as I nitpick over this that may not be a very important issue at all But I just hoped there might be a solution to it. Thanks anyway.

Another ipad set up after defective one wouldn't work properly

I purchased ipad2 that had to be returned. Purchased new one today but itunes doesn't list new ipad on sidebar. Any suggestions on what to do?

Did you have it connected to the library mac when it froze? If so, why? I would be hesitant to hook my ipod to a unprotected public computer since it may be infested with viruses or have unknown hardware problems.
In any case, if you can get it to an Apple store they can probably help you with it, it sounds like it needs replacing.
A certain percentage of any complex product will turn out to be defective and will have to be returned, it sounds like you were unlucky enough to get one. Looking over the forums here it may seem like the ipod is plagued with bugs, but don't forget that there are millions who never have a problem and so have no reason to pipe up here. Personally I think Apple deserves a thumbs up for continuing to host these forums in spite of how they may cast a negative light on thier products to the casual observer.

1) Which one will run best?
2) How do I upgrade?

It's probably cheaper to buy a new printer & sell the existing on on ebay.

New Mac Mini+Superdrive+windows 7 - Will it work?

Looking at updating my father to the Apple world, thought I would get him a Mac Mini, and use Bootcamp to install Windows. As the new Mac Mini doesn't have an optical drive (I have a MacBook Air Superdrive), if I use the external one to install Windows, will it install properly? Does the Mac Mini have the drivers for the SUperdrive? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
