Oh no! What Have I done? HELP!!!!

I have an iPod photo and have merrily used it for a while. Today we bought my brother an iPod mini and since installing this on my computer iTunes no longer recognises my iPod though it recognises my brother mini.
I've rebooted my laptop (a number of times) but am reluctant to reset my iPod in case this doesn't sort it out(and loose all the music etc on my iPod).
My iPod is connected properly as it's charging and I get the "do not disconnect" notice on the iPod screen.
Does anyone know how to sort out this problem (I have tried to reinstall the software that came with my iPod but get an error message and it fails to reload).
Any assistance would be gratefully received

A-ha! In addition to resetting my iPod I chaged the drive it was showing as in windows explorer and hey presto after I rebooted by laptop there it was. Phew! What a relief. If anyone else is having problems with Itunes recognising their iPod I'd reset it while connected to machine and then change the drive. reboot your PC then open iTunes and hopefully it'll appear for you as it did for me.

    What is the GarageBand version that your friend is using?
    If it is GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5, you can buy GarageBand '11 as a boxed retail version with the iLIfe '11 bundle, e.g. from Amazon.
    Then you can upgrade GarageBand '11 to 6.0.5, using this upgrader from the Support page:
                     GarageBand 6.0.5
    GarageBand 6.0.5 will work well with your system.  But if your friend is using the newest GarageBand 10, this will not help. Then ask your friend to send you audio files for each track, so you can recreate the project from the audio.  Or your friend could also use GarageBand '11 for the projects you want to share, that will run well in all newer MacOS X versions, even with GarageBand 10.0 installed on the same system.

  • Where are all my bookmarks - what have you done with Mozilla? you have screwed up my computer!

    Everything I had on my tool bar, and all the sites listed in my Bookmarks are GONE!!!
    What have you done with those sites? They were very important to me - I can not handle all these changes by Mozilla - None of these changes are of any use to me. I want to go back to my original screen and when I logged on today you would not let me access my internet and original screen without entering info that changed everything on my computer window!!! Help me find those BOOKMARKS
    Mozilla Firefox is not user friendly - I don't want all these apps - EBay, Weather or YouTube! I had the necessary sites listed that are important and used everyday - not those listed. Who are you to determine what "apps" I should be using???
    edit: email address edited out but it is likely too late for search bots grabbing it.

    I'm desperate to get back my Bookmarks in the same unsorted way and easily accessible as I had previously - at the moment they are hidden away in some sort of zipped form I am unable to access: they were previously listed in the ideal way for me to access - as chronologically bookmarked and disparate. It really is infuriating to have this level of interference with my personal affairs on my computer without even seeking my consent. Ideally I want a return to the earlier version of Firefox which worked perfectly well for me - I'm plagued with excessive slowness and freezing since the latest -Firefox 5.0- update was installed. Is there any simple way to revert back to the earlier version of Firefox?

  • HT5361 When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose "  button is gone. What have I done wrong?

    When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose "  button is gone. What have I done wrong?

    Hi Liz,
    Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem.  Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File",  then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups  opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine.  I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked  "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1).  I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do. 
    The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu,  when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.  
    I am now a happy camper. 
    I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto,  that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"? 
    Good luck Liz,  if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

  • TS3989 I have just downloaded the latest Software, Lion, but i still don't have the Stream highlighted...what have i done wrong?

    I have just downloaded the latest Software, Lion, but i still don't have the Stream highlighted...what have i done wrong?

    That's what I was thinking but my neighbour did the 10.8 and got the 11 so can't understand how she got it and I didn't.
    I have been reading about iphoto 11 and there has been a lot of bad press when using with the iphone, ipad etc. Is it, in your opionion, too much hassle just for photo stream?
    Thanks so much for all your help...I thought i was gonna go mad, lol

  • HT1848 I downloaded some music from I-tunes and now they are not on my phone or computer. What have I done???

    I'm Lost!!! I Downloaded Music and now its not on my phone or computer!!! What have I done or need to do!?

    I think you can still save that music that you imported from CD to your computer and later suscribe to iTunes Match so that content is also sync in the subscription. I found this article that show you how to transfer those purchases from the iPad to the computer :
    Re-download or transfer your iTunes Store purchases from an iPhone, iPad or iPod to a computer - Apple Support
    Hope it helps at least a little.

  • Up to yesterday, I could upload photos with no problems, to Ancestry.ca.  I have Iphoto 8.1.2. What have I done?

    I have been uploading photos for months now to Ancestry.ca.  Now, it does not work.  What have I done?
    Help!

    Carol, not sure I undertand exactly but does the first one in this list help?
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • I am making my first keynote presentation.  I transferred the slides from a power point.  I did not use a 'theme' from keynote.  Keynote will not let me 'name' the presentation and the 'save as' option will not come up in the menu.  What have I done wrong

    I am making my first keynote presentation.  I transferred the slides from a power point.  I did not use a 'theme' from keynote.  Keynote will not let me 'name' the presentation and the 'save as' option will not come up in the menu.  What have I done wrong

    When it comes to Keynote, I try and start with a presentation that's 1680 x 1050 preset or something in that range.  Most projectors that you'll get at a conference won't project much higher than that and if they run at a lower resolution, it's better to have the device downsize your Keynote.  Anything is better than having the projector try and upsize your presentation... you work hard to make it look good, and it's mangled by some tired Epson projector.
    As far as slides go, scan them in at 150 dpi or better, and make them at least the dimensions of your presentation.  Keynote is really only wanting 72dpi, but I do them at 150, just in case I need to print out the presentation as a handout later, and having the pix at 150 dpi gives me a little help with their quality on a printer.
    You'd probably have to drop in the 150 versions again if you output the Keynote to .pdf or Word or something, but at least you have the option.
    And Gary's right (above) go ahead and scan them as TIFFs.  Sooner or later you'll want to do something else with these slides (like make something for an iPad or the like) and having them as TIFFs keeps your presentation looking good.
    Finally, and this is a big one, get to the location for your presentation ahead of time if you can, and plug the laptop in and see what you get.  There's always connection problems. Don't let the AV bonehead tell you everything will work just fine ('... I don't have any adapters for a Mac...') .  See it for yourself... you're the one that's standing up there.  Unless it's your boss, then you better be really sure it works.

    Try emptying your browser cache more often. If you are using Safari, from the menu bar top of your screen click Safari > Empty Cache
    Try a video on FB. If can't stream Flash content, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset.
    If that doesn't help, try deleing Flash cookies >  Flush.app – Flash Cookie Removal Tool For OS X | MacHacks.TV

  • Oh Nokia, what have you done? (UK)

    Oh Nokia! What have you done?
    Restricting the Lumia 920 to a single network in the UK is a MAJOR mistake!
    Ok, logic states you want to push the 920 via a 4G network, of which there is only one currently but that doesn't mean people will switch to that network.
    We all know 4G will come to the other networks and people will buy a phone based on that and a myriad of other factors such as network coverage, customer service, Operating System etc.
    So restricting availability to a single network which, to be frank, is not regarded as having the best service or coverage is simply ludicrous.
    Yesterday I saw a retailer in the UK offering the 920 SIM Free. Yahoo! I can jump in with an off-contract purchase to supplement my two other Windows Phone 7.5 devices - one of which is also a Lumia (800 in this case, bought on the day of release!).
    'Are you sure this is SIM Free and therefore Carrier unlocked?' I ask. 'Yes, all our SIM Free phones are unlocked.' came back the response.
    OK, here is my £459 to buy the device....
    Imagine my surprise when neither of my O2 SIMs were able to be used but my T-Mobile SIM was!
    Call the retailer to be told by the Manager that it was SIM Free and unlocked. Back to shop I go - much testing with many SIMs ensued and a call to Tech Support confirms my suspicions that it was indeed locked to the EE family (EE/T-Mobile/Orange).
    'Can I have an unlock code please?' I ask to have the response there are none available. Only option is to refund!
    So Nokia, you have lost a sale of your flagship device (and being part of a UK Smartphone community that reviews, tests and supports such devices and users) and I know there is latent demand for it out there but no-one I know wants it on that network and certainly not on the commercial terms on offer where the 4G element is restricted...
    The HTC 8X although specification wise maybe not quite close enough to the 920 to be called equivalent is close enough and has such a commercial advantage (read minimum £60 cheaper) and is available SIM Free to be the one to buy if you want a Windows Phone 8 device now.
    So much for your loyal customer base who jumped in with Nokia on the release of the Lumia 800, they cannot now go to the 920. The 820 is not flagship and in comparison to the HTC 8x is somewhat lacking ( I had them both in my hands yesterday).
    Oh, dear, Nokia, this is hardly likely to help your financial woes when you restrict sales of your flagship device in the UK.
    I am happy to engage on this with Nokia UK and even review said device but in reality all I want is to be able to buy the device for personal use.
    The Nokia Value Proposition is a strong one compared to the other Windows Phone 8 manufacturers (HTC 8S/X and Samsung Ativ) with the exclusive and attractive software elements but that's only a real value if the device can be obtained otherwise it is irrelevant.
    I look forward to Nokia's response.....

    Today I phoned t-mobile UK (South African call center???) to order an 920 as an upgrade, I made it quite clear that I wanted the 920, but the customer services advisor was absolutely determined to sell me an iPhone 5, stating the IP5 was a 'much better phone' etc. I was pretty annoyed at this behaviour as he was doing absolutely everything he could to persuade me to buy the IP5. I ended the call without ordering anything.
    I eventually managed to order a 920, this time through a UK call centre, it would seem t-mobile UK and orange UK are doing everything in their power NOT to sell the phone, it's not listed on either of their online shops, even though you CAN buy it from them. Initially I was told the 920 wasn't available on t-mobile, even though my friend had got on on t-mobile a few hours earlier, once informed of this, they remembered it was available and allowed me to order.
    To me it seems the TMUK and Orange are pushing the EE network at the expense of Nokia. Why, because people are put off by EEs ridiculously high monthly price plans, and TMUK & Orange aren't making it known that you can get it on their network at a much cheaper monthly rate.

    I know that a setting has been changed, I just can't remember what I did.

    Hi,
    From the application used to print open the printer dialog, then click on ettings or Preferences to access to Printig Preferences dialog.
    Within the Layout tab change the Print on both sides option.
    For a portrait oriented document select Flip on Long Edge, for a Landscape one select Flip on Short Edge, then it will print as expected.

  • I have done something terrible!  nopen up, 'event'  but if I click on them a triangle with an exclamation point comes up.  What have I done, how can I get them back?

    I have done something terrible!  now some of my photos will not open up, I can see them in the 'event' but if I click on some of them I get a gray triangle with an exclamation point.  What have I done and how do I rectify it? 

    The exclamation shows when the file path/link to the original file has been broken.  Apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • I have 4 mail icons on my desktop and cannot open any of them.  I have no idea how I have done this but want to go back to having one mail icon which opens.  What have I done and what should I do?

    I am new to mac pro and have managed to set up 4 mail icons on my desk top and none of them open mail.  What have I done and how do I get back to having just one in the doc which opens?

    HA! It turns out, that an app that I've never used before, became active during a time that I was multitasking and didn't realize it. I didn't notice the effects right away, because my main desktop has a special 3D desktop generator called, bumptop, which covers over any other desktop color or graphic in that area. So it wasn't until I swiped to go to a different desktop, that I noticed the random slideshow being displayed. All fixed now. What a relief.
