Ok this explanation my be longer than it needs to be.

OK My mom's PC died the other day....it had all her itunes music on it that she did sync with her ipod and ipad ( a whopping 375 songs)
so she has the songs on her IOS devices.
She inherited and old MacBook (mine) and in the porcess of trying to sync her Itunes music to the MacBook it asks to erase the ipad and use the the songs on teh MacBook Itunes Library. It looks like the songs on the MacBook are the ones that she downloaded from the Itunes Store, the ones on the Ipad are the the old CDs that she ripped to her old PC and put into itunes.
So the Question is...can i sync the songs that are on the ipad to this MacBook or do I need to reformat the Ipad.
This has only now become an issue since she just got an iphone and wants the music on her ipad on the iphone and the sales guy at apple said "Sure you can do that". I don't think these folks always ask the right questions before they answer.
any help will be greatly appreciated

URL longer than it needs to be.

I've created a web site, www.shadyhollowstingrays.com. The name of the site in iWeb is Shady Hollow Stingrays. For some reason iWeb has created a folder at the root of my site called shady_hollow_stingrays so now every URL is longer than it needs to be.
The main page is: http://www.shadyhollowstingrays.com/Shady_Hollow_Stingrays/Welcome.html
Have I misconfigured something?

There is no strange reason for it and it never occured to me that the length of an URL shouldn't exceed a certain length.
Here you'll find lots of longer than need to be URLs.
     http://www.wyodor.net
I find it very convenient to have Sites (folders/directories). It allows me to organize my pages based on topic/subject. I've been doing this for the past 16 years.
The only problem is that iWeb creates an index.html file outside the folder with the Sitename. It will overwrite a custom index.html file if you have one. But that can be dealt with with some logical thinking.
Anyway, it's the way iWeb works :

My ipod touch 4th generation no longer holds it's charge for more than 40mins,needs new internal battery but I have no idea how to go about this. i love my ipod and don't want it to loose power completely, can anyone help?

My ipod touch 4th generation no longer holds it's charge for more than 40mins from full power, think it needs a new internal battery but have no idea how to go about this and am no longer covered by my guarantee. Can anyone advise me on what's best? Thanks in advance

Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon. The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
Use an Apple wall-mount charger. Do NOT use a computer's USB port. Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear). An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the exact procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem. I am stating, however, that we don't yet know whether or not a battery problem exists.
According to Apple:
Use Your iPod Regularly
For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

My iphone home button wont work - according to the Sale of Goods act I can expect this to last longer than the 1 year 83 days that I have had the phone, regardless of any guarentee

I have a 3Gs iPhone, which I've had for 1 year 83 days and the home button si faulty. I have checked on the internet and this seems to be a common issue.
I have a contract with O2 for 24 mouths due to run out March 2012 but the phone was bought from Carphone Warehouse.
I have been to O2 and they say it's out of the Apple warranty and therefore I will have to pay for a repair. They also have now said because it came from CPW they will do nothing for me.
I have been to Apple and they say the same thing that I have to pay for the repair as it's out of warranty
My query is surely I can expect a phone that has been looked after should last longer than 83 days? Therefore under the sale of good act I should get a repair or replacement for free???
I am now paying for a contract where the phone doesn't work!

Good luck with that. Most of the world does not have anything like what you believe your "sale of goods act" is supposed to do. It sounds like you expect it to extend the warranty on a Product from Apple until your contract with an entirely different company is complete. I think you'll find that you are misinterpreting that law. The exception may be if you purchased the phone from the carrier and the law is written in such a way as to require them to replace the device if it fails during the term of the contract, though I doubt that will be the case either.

Getting this error when saving: Names longer than 31 characters are not supported on the destination volume

I've just tried to save a document in Pages and got this error
Names longer than 31 characters are not supported on the destination volume
Never had a problem like this before. I haven't changed disks or formatted disks. Running latest Yosemite 10.10
The only reference I can find to this error on the internet says that it's for applications prior to OS X which I think we can discount.
The only other reference I can find in the support community relates to one person with problems saving attachments in Mail and dates from early 2014.
Can anybody give me a suggestion on what I might need to do?
Thanks

What format are you saving to?
Where are you saving the files to and what is that volume formatted as?
Have you tested with files from other applications, such as TextEdit?

HT5521 I have a lightning to usb cable which is 2m in length. Is there any known issues with trying to recharge an iPad 4 with this longer length. It seems to me it is taking much longer than a 1m cord to recharge.

Axel,
I'm afraid a new SSD won't be different from your bad USB stick. I had similar issues over USB with both a (no-brand) stick and TWO 64gb Kingston SSDNow's (running Kubuntu 12.04 with Kernel 3.11, ia_64): it all runs exceptionally well (wanna know how it feels like booting in 5 sec?) for a few days - then suddenly you find yourself facing that dreaded (initramfs) prompt. You ask yourself: why? Did I upgrade grub lately? Did I upgrade the Kernel? I don't recall so. Ok, let's fix this... insert favorite live cd, boot, fsck...what???? THOUSANDS of errors??? Hundreds of files and directories corrupted, and the system is unusable - Reinstall everything from scratch onto another drive.
Rinse and repeat: did this 3 times. Then I found this analysis:
http://lkcl.net/reports/ssd_analysis.html
I also suspect USB power interrupts more abruptly than SATA power, at shutdown - basically aggravating any power interruption damages. So now I'm going to:
- buy an Intel S3500!
- add commit=1 to my mount options in /etc/fstab
- edit shutdown procedure to add a 5-10 sec pause after unmounting drives.
Just my two cents.

Since I upgraded to Adobe Created Cloud, my photo editing processes are taking more than 10 times longer than they used to. Why would this be?

Since upgrading to OS 8.0.2 my ipad2 freezes, slows down, safari takes forever to open, the celluar network goes to No Service and the only way to fix it is to reboot it and this takes longer than before. Has Microsoft taken over Apple software?

SInce upgrading to OS 8.0.2 my ipad 2 freezes, slows down, safari takes forever to open pages, cellular network goes to No Service requiring a reboot (and this takes longer than before), in summary, I now have a fancy paperweight, i used to love my ipad. I feel as if Microsoft has taken charge of the Apple Software Division.

Sorry if someone sees this post in a different thread; Just want to get some additional exposure.. Who knows, maybe someone from Apple will take note..
The glitchy, unresponsive, slow and outright crashes are something you would expect in a less superior product. I paid what I consider a premium because of the perceived integrity of the company and quality of their products. I am not going to go as far to say Apple ***** and so do their products; but they have to to a better job of acknowledging problems and providing recourse. Right now, it "feels" like they don't care about existing customers. I am not sure of the exact #'s, but I believe products like the Ipad2 represent a significant population of their existing Ipad product base.
So what is my specific rant; If Apple is going to take a long time, or worst, NOT fix the problems introduced in IOS 8 for IPAD 2, give us the option of going back to IOS 7. I would say most everyone was extremely happy with their product running under that OS and would migrate back in a heartbeat. By blocking this option, it feels like Apple is saying that the only recourse is to live with crappy performance, wait forever without any real news, or throw away your Ipad 2 and buy a newer model. Right now this is 100% completely unacceptable, and I, as will thousands of others, will watch how this unfolds when we do buy new products. Most technology products only have short, finite lifespan and I would think it is at very least very important to Apple to retain customer base in a highly competitive marketplace. I'm done...

NewMacPro 4cor. Seems to take longer than I expected to boot up. This normal?

I just got my new MacPro 4 core with 512GB SSD and 16GB RAM. D300 GPUs.
I have noticed that when I start it up i have a white screen for longer than I had expected befor the user login screen appears.
Anyone else seen this? Running Mavericks 9.2. I have not loaded the latest security update as I have heard it can be a bit problematic.
How long does your nMacPro take from power on to login screen?

Disconnect all your perhipherals and start looking there for an issue.
Do a SAFE BOOT once, then restart, then do a restart again. What is it now?
Go into Recovery Mode and repair disk at two points, the top raw drive level, and the Mac OS volume partition both.
Do you have Windows Boot Camp or something else on the drive as well?
Longer is not going to help as can be seen. But let's assume longer means some time frame of more than 15 seconds? and you went to control panel to select default partition after insure with Repair Disk and Safe Boot it is in good working order, and nothing is attached affecting booting.
Did it do it on day one? when did it change? what was done in that time?

I have an unlimited talk plan but I received a $40 long distance charge this month...no explanation, just says "long distance-Verizon wireless". Nothing shows up in roaming...what is this??

Sorry for any uncertainty about your bill, vintagefaith77! I can see how it would unsettle you to see a charge you didn't expect. Although you may have unlimited domestic minutes with your plan, long distance charges occur when you make a call to a non-domestic phone number (international). It wouldn't be a roaming charge because the call was made from within your home calling area (the United States) to an international number.
I recommend reviewing your detailed statement for the call(s). Some 10 digit numbers can be dialed from your phone but still be international (such as calls to Canadian or Dominican Republic numbers).

Error on passing paramter names longer than 16 char on portal import page

After created a transport set, we used portal import page to import it.
However, when we select that transport set and click "import", an 404 error occured right away. The url is:
/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwutl_ui_export_import.import_eds
When we check the Apache error logs, it seemed all parameter names that are longer than 16 characters in the page's html form were passed wrongly. Those characters
after the 16th character of the parameters' names were some unreadable or wrong
ones. For example, P_EXPLICIT_MODE_EDS was passed as P_EXPLICIT_MODE_ËâN to the
backend pl/sql procedure and that's why there was a "SIGNATURE (parameter names)
MISMATCH" error I think.
My question is actually why the internal portal pages couldn't pass parameter
names that are longer than 16 characters. Are there some settings wrong with
the portal metadata database or oracle portal itself, or even our linux system? Was it because maybe we set the multilanguage-support for our portal?
This error also happens in some other portal internal pages. Please help and you can also contact me at email: [email protected]
Thanks a lot!

THE IPHONE CANNOT BE SYNCED BECAUSE THIS COMPUTER IS NO LONGER AUTHORIZED FOR PURCHASED ITEMS THAT ARE ON THIS PHONE

Hi I have a macbook pro (late 2011) running on Yosemite and an iPhone 5s running iOS 8.1.2 and I have never had a problem until tonight. I wanted to sync my iPhone to add mew music but upon syncing I keep getting a pop up message saying "THE IPHONE " " COULD NOT BE SYNCED BECAUSE THIS COMPUTER IS NO LONGER AUTHORIZED FOR PURCHASED ITEMS ON THIS PHONE" and tells me to go to the store tab on the top and to authorize this computer and every time I do it says computer is already authorized. I will also mention that my iTunes account is the only account that is used on my Mac and it is the only account I've used on my iPhone. Ive synced them plenty of time with no problems. I have never came across this message before and now my iPhone won't sync. I have been online for an hour now looking for solutions but I haven't found any that successfully worked. Ive rebooted both my Mac and iPhone with no success. ow for some reason when I plug my iPhone in it does not even charge but my Mac reads it and it shows up in the iTunes store so I tried syncing it again 1 more time snap it just gets stuck on step 1. I must also say state that is did successfully back up but absolutely will not sync. Can anybody please help me out without resetting my iPhone. Thanks

Thanks Gail but ive tried that as well as logging oht and back into my accounts on my iphone and mac but I still get that message. I actually found a solution by unckecking my synced music playlist and clicking sync to remove it and then reclicked on my playlist to sync and it actually synced notmally and I got all of my new songs so I wanted to test it again so I clicked on sync again and the message once again popped up until I did the un-syncing and re-syncing again. I guess I will keep doing that in the future even though its annoying but its better than resetting my iphone.

Error message "Page header or footer longer than a page"

Hi
Our application call crystal report to generate/display crystal report in PDF format. We have a dev system to test this, all looking good, however when we moved to production server, the attached error message is displayed when running crystal report.
Invoking method GENERATEREPORT returned error Page Header plus Page Footer is too large for the page.
Error in File C:\DOCUME~1\SERV
IC1.LIM\LOCALS1\Temp\temp coq new xxxx.rpt:
Page header or footer longer than a page.
Same report doesnu2019t get this error message if running it from crystal report developer.
Not all crystal reports got this error, but some of reports display strange view in PDF, the content of report are reduced in a paper size like label size, not A4 size. I have checked the default printer on the server, it points to a normal window printer, not a label printer. I have checked all possible settings on production server and compared with dev server, all looks same to me
I suspect the label printing size is used somehow when the report is previewed in pdf format, not normal A4 size although I have selected a normal window printer as a default printer on the window,what else should i check?
Could you please shed some light on this?
Thanks!
Li

I found the issue is from label printer that is setup on the production server. After I removed the label printer from the server, then error message is gone, all report running fine.
This label printer is not the default window printer, it is a network printer but is configured as a printer using local port on the server.
I think for some reasons, crystal report alway picks up the label printer page size, not the normla page size, I am not sure why and how crystal report do this, it should pick up the default printer, which is a normal printer.
There is no error when I run report within CR. The error happens only when I try to generate crystal report from our application.
I do have logo in page header/footer, subreports in report footer, but I don't think they cause the problem, because I can run same report without any problem in dev system.
Any idea what I should check next?
Thanks

Ok this explanation my be longer than it needs to be.
