Hi mikecpk,
I recommend doing the troubleshooting assistant for your specific iPod from this page:

I have a older ipod and i need a charger for it the model

help please i have an older ipod and i need to find a charger for it please help model number m8541

So, if that is your iPod model, and you have a computer with a FireWire port, which even the current Macs do not have anymore, the cables are commonly available. However, the one to get depends on the type of FireWire port you have on the computer. The two likely types are 6-pin (older FireWire 400) and 9-pin (newer FireWire 800). Your iPod has the 6-pin (400) port.
Apple-centric vendor OWC has a selection of all types
http://eshop.macsales.com/catsearch/firewire+1394+cables
If your computer has 9-pin (800), you need a 6-pin (400) to 9-pin (800) cable. If it has 6-pin (400) that looks like the port on the iPod, then you need 6-pin to 6-pin.

I charge my IPOD and don't use it for 2-3 days. When I go to use it, it is dead. What am I doing wrong??

When I charge my IPod Touch and don't use it for 2-3 days, it is dead when I go to use it. What am I doing wrong?

If yo are oly letting the iPod sleep (vice slide to power off) that is normal if wifi and other itesm ae left on when sleep. I would either power the iPod off or at least turn on airplane mode and let it sleep.

Do I have to have an apple USB power adapter to charge the ipod or can i use one for a htc phone?

Must I have an Apple USB power adaptor to charge an ipod or can I use the power adaptor from my htc cell phone?

Read the cell phone user manual to see if the charger can charge an iPod Nano.
FYI the usb power charger (AC) does not have to come from Apple. I purchased mine from Macmall.com

I have a white screen on my ipod and can't use it

I plugged in my ipod to do an update on Itunes but it didn't finish the update. It is stuck on a white screen when it is plugged in and shows low battery when it is not. I've tried a forced restart and it isn't doing anything. It also is not charging right now.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I lost my ipod touch ver 4 password, the connector to computer was broken, only can charge ipod and can not use itunes, how can I do?

I lost my ipod touch ver4 password, but the ipod somehow is broken, can not connect to a computer, the connector can only be used as a charger, I do not want to repair, so how can I recovery the passord?

With no iTunes:
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
Otherwise, find a coputer with iTunes and an internet connection and:
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

I have $15 on my account and can't use it for a $14.99 app. What's wrong?

I'm trying to use my $15 on my account to purchase an app for $14.99. It keeps asking for payment info. What's wrong?

If there's tax on that item, it's increasing the price to an amount higher than your available credit.

Pages '09: Can't use AppleScript for selected text inside tables?

When I run get selection on selected text in a Pages document, I get something like this:
<pre>text from character 1 to character 4 of body text of document id 9943974 of application "Pages"</pre>
When I run get selection on selected text inside a table cell in a table in a Pages document, I get something like this:
<pre>text from character 1 to character 4 of some table of document id 3539679 of application "Pages"</pre>
When I run get selection on selected text inside a table cell in ANOTHER table in the same Pages document, I get the exact same thing. It still says "some" table. So there is no way to distinguish between tables if there are more than one table in the same Pages document.
Am I correct in understanding that this means that most AppleScript commands for manipulating text are unusable inside table cells?
For example, it seems impossible to get the properties of the selection when the selection is selected text inside "some" table. So it's impossible do anything about text styles, etc.
Is AppleScript support in Pages ’09 really that limited, or am I missing something?

The first script below should return the character style of any selection made in Pages ’09, whereas the second script should apply the "XXX" character style to any selection:
--BEGINNING OF SCRIPT 1
tell application "Pages"
activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Pages"
-- Show the format bar:
if not (pop up button 1 of window 1 exists) then
click menu item "Show Format Bar" of menu 1 of menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
end if
-- Show the styles drawer and character styles:
if menu item "Show Styles Drawer" of menu 1 of menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1 exists then
keystroke "t" using {shift down, command down}
end if
tell front window
tell checkbox 1 of group 1 of drawer 1 -- “Show or hide character styles.” checkbox
repeat until it exists
delay 0.1 -- wait until the styles drawer is open
end repeat
if description is "show character style" then click
end tell
-- Get the row index (although it is not a property) of the character style:
tell menu button 2 -- “Choose a character style.” menu button
click
set k to 0
repeat
set k to k + 1
if value of attribute "AXMenuItemMarkChar" of menu item k of menu 1 exists then exit repeat
end repeat
keystroke return -- hide the menu
end tell
-- Get the character style name:
if k > 1 then set k to k + 1
value of static text 1 of row k of outline 1 of scroll area 2 of splitter group 1 of group 1 of drawer 1
end tell
end tell
end tell
--END OF SCRIPT 1
--BEGINNING OF SCRIPT 2
set myStyle to "XXX" -- the name of the character style you want to apply
tell application "Pages"
activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Pages"
-- Show the format bar:
if not (pop up button 1 of window 1 exists) then
click menu item "Show Format Bar" of menu 1 of menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1
end if
-- Show the styles drawer and character styles:
if menu item "Show Styles Drawer" of menu 1 of menu bar item "View" of menu bar 1 exists then
keystroke "t" using {shift down, command down}
end if
tell front window
tell checkbox 1 of group 1 of drawer 1 -- “Show or hide character styles.” checkbox
repeat until it exists
delay 0.1 -- wait until the styles drawer is open
end repeat
if description is "show character style" then click
end tell
set characterStyles to value of static text 1 of rows of outline 1 of scroll area 2 of splitter group 1 of group 1 of drawer 1
set k to 0
repeat with thisStyle in the characterStyles
set k to k + 1
if thisStyle as text is myStyle then exit repeat
end repeat
-- Apply the character style:
if k > 1 then set k to k - 1
click menu button 2 -- “Choose a character style.” menu button
click menu item k of menu 1 of menu button 2
end tell
end tell
end tell
--END OF SCRIPT 2
I suppose that +paragraph styles+ should work the same.
I'm beginning to know Pages ’09 a little better now.

I have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks

Place the iOS device in recovery mode using this program

Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

There is no doubt you can.
When you say photos stored on it.. in what form are these photos?? Is this your iphoto library?
If so using iphoto library on the TC has risks.. not necessarily viewing photos .. that should be fine. But if you have photos you are editing and wireless comms drop out leaving the library with a file open, it is likely to corrupt your library. Please check with the iphoto people on the discussion board if you want to go ahead for the dangers of using iphoto on any network drive.
The TC is not designed as a NAS .. in particular it cannot back itself up, nor can Time Machine backup the TC. So any files on the TC are at risk. If you manage to corrupt the iphoto library without a current backup... does that worry you??

Drivers/Utilities CD..XP and VISTA..can I use vista for WIN7 64 bit install?

Drivers/Utilities CD's, that came with the p-35 Motherboard..XP and VISTA..can I use Vista for WIN7 64 bit install, or download the chip set drivers for Awin7 BEFORE the OS install??
MSI P-35 Platinum
Q6600 Core 2 Quad
Presently XP 32Bit
NVidia geforce 8600GT
8GB DDR2 SDRAM PC6400-800MHz
Windows 7..waiting to be installed.
Hello,
I WANT TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL.I have Windows 32 Home XP, I have the Win7 OEM I want to install.
When i bought my MSI mobo, it came with both the drivers and utilities for XP and Vista. Can I use the chip set drivers and utilities for Vista, until i can go to MSI and download the latest chip set drivers? When do i install these drivers....before the OS install, or after?
Can I format these drives first, go in the BIOS change to boot sequence from Raptor Boot Drive to the DVD/Rom to boot the WIN7 from, or should I format while installing Win7?
Someone on another forum suggested that 1) disconnect the two droves, then install the OS on the boot drive, and2) before win7 install, make the proposed boot drive (NOT THE DVD/CD ROM the first choice priority for the boot sequence....is this right?
Is it absolutely necessary to unplug the other two drives, while formatting and installing the WIN7 O.S.? People tell me that there is a chance of the OS installing sometimes on the other drives.
Also, if I want to change the now present boot drive Local disk letter (C) to my storage drive (G) and the other two drive letters, can I do this in manage disks, anytime, or only during windows setup install?
Thx

I've never had this much trouble hooking up a HDD.
I have two IDE DVD/CD ROMS. (My RAID MODE was IDE in XP OS, and still is with WIN7.)
I have three SATA HDD's.
After unplugging the SATA 2TB HDD while I installed the WIN7 OS on the 500 GB HDD (it was on the 74 RAPTOR, but I moved location, and made absolutly sure nothing went on my raptor)
So today I decided to re-hook up the 2TB Storage HDD, and when I did, I went into bios,and to the cell menu, and LOAD ALL DEFAULT SETTINGS, so it could see my newly installed HDD,which I had all my backup Data from the previous HDD. I also checked and the RAID MODE was IDE, and the boot sequence was the WDC 500GB Boot/OS drive, rebooted,then I got that annoying blanked out screen with that blinking cursor, so I got back into the bios,and changed the 1st boot to the IDE Pioneer DVD/CD ROM, 2nd boot to the 500GB HDD, and rebooted again..still got that blinking cursor.
I opened up the Mobo, checked and replugged all SATA, and power cables to the three HDDS, tried it again,then still got the blinking cursor. Seems no matter what I change in the boot sequence,it never wants to boot properly
....AND THEN,
I started with TAB > POST> started WINDOWS, then once it opened up, I went to manage Disks, saw all three HDDs were online and healthy. Win. Explorer also listed them in that folder, in device manager, it listed all three too.
The managed window showed this:
74GB (system,active,Primary partition) Storage
2TB (Primary partition) Excessive Storage
500GB (Boot, page files,crash-Dump, Primary partition) Operating system
Both the PCI IDE BusMaster and ON-Chip SATA Controller were both ENABLED.
Before I just got online, I tried RESTART, and it opened Windows the usual way, so I hope I don't have any more problems. It worked fine BEFORE I just plugged in the 2TB HDD back in.
I pretty much did what everyone suggested,except for leaving in the 74GB Raptor when I installed WIN7, which prompted me to format the drive prior to installing the OS. Also, when I changed the IDE, RAID,and AHC1, to the AHC1 Mode, just before I installed Window7, like a few suggested, I also had problems, so after the install, I went back and changed it back to IDE. My Floppy was an IDE, but I removed it from my system, and disabled in BIOS, but even a few times I went into Bios and saw that thje floppy was 1st Boot, even though I changed to either the DVD/CD Rom, or the 500GB boot drive.
So what is the preferred boot sequence?

How do I fix the compatibility issue between my iPhone 4S with iOS 7 and my Pioneer car stereo? There was no problem with iOS 6, but now I get a message saying "this device is not compatible" and so I can't use Netflix for example. How do I fix it?

This is a typical response from the manufacturer. Did you try the fix that Lawrence mentioned. When Apple or any other phone manufacturer update phone software, they have the latest Bluetooth installed. It is usually the problem with the radio manufacturer that they devices are using the older Bluetooth protocols. You can try this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581 and see if anything there helps, but generally it requires the radio manufacturer to update their firmware.

All I have on my I pod touch is a white screen with multicolored lines going across screen. What do I need to do. I can't use I tunes because it says I have to have passcode and can't get screen to come up. I have already tried holding both keys down.

- See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.. It bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod)
- Next try DFU mode

You need to move the music from the iPod to your iTunes library on your computer then sync with the iPhone.
Assuming you have a PC you can use this: http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/
