Please help before I throw my i pad away
I had my i pad stoled last week so bought a new one (i pad 1 version). When i turn i tunes on and connect my i pad to my laptop to take it through the set up etc, my i pad does not appear as a device in i tunes. I have just spent 4 hours trying repeatedly to get it to work. If anyone has any ideas it would be appreciated. Otherrwise i think i will have to give up on it and put it in the cupboard never to be seen again. I am IT illiterate and so got the **** machine as i was told it was user friendly!
Don't throw it away. You'll get it to work.
First, when you plug into a power outlet does the iPad charge?
If yes, what type of computer? If a Mac, when you plug into a REAR USB port directly, does it charge? If no, it might be a cable issue. Do you have your prior iPads cable? Have you tried each cable? Some cables aren't good? If iTunes doesn't see it with either cable then move on further. What version of iTunes are you running? What iOS version came loaded on your iPad? Next thing to check is that both are compatible. Newer iPad iOS versions require your iTunes to be upgraded to a recent version as well. If you are running an older iTunes version, it might not be compatible with the version on the iPad. You would need to upgrade your iTunes version, or vice versa on the iPad.
Here is some good stuff from Apple.

PLEASE help before I throw my iMac G4 out of the apartment window
Hello Apple Experts.
I hope that you can help me out here before I throw my iMac G4 out of the apartment window!!!!
I am having major problems with my wireless connection on my iMac G4(Uses original Airport Card).
When I installed 10.4 the connection was just very weak and not all the bars on the Airport icon were highlighted.
Also, on occasions the connection was totally lost and the iMac didn't even see the base unit (non apple) whilst it was switched on.
Now that I upgraded to 10.4.10 (using the PPC combi update), the Imac does not see or connect to the base unit at all.
As far as I know the card and antenna is conneted properly as I followed the Apple set up guide.
I know that the base station is fine as I have another mac in the house that connects with no issues....
I am wondering if there is a general issues with the iMac G4's connecting wirelessly with the Airport Card.
It seems there maybe three problems here.
1) There is an issues with the software update
2) There is a problem with the Airport Card (although it is brand new)
3) I need to configure someting to make it work!
Hope someone can help me here.
Thanks for your time.
Optimistique1I'm getting the same problem. Probably since 10.4.10 but I can't be sure. I am have just been perplexed at why my other machines are working OK and my iMac G4 17" 1Ghz is having network problems. It has the original Aiport Extreme Card inside. I was Googling and saw a suggestion to delete all your "Network Locations" then start fresh. I've just tried that and I'm running a ping for a while to see how its performing. I think its improved but the signal read only 2 bars still when my MacBook Pro right next to it read 100%.
Somebody must know something? -

Many thanks, in advance! Jen.Since the issue really is not related to the focus of this forum...compatibility issues between Mac OS and Windows, you should 1. Try a different brand of discs. 2. Post your question on the iTunes forums: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=150 3. Post your question on a Windows forum such as those at http://www.windowsforums.org

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP BEFORE I THROW MY MAC OUT OF THE WINDOW!
Is my setup useless?
Logic crashes every time I open more than 1 external synth (e.g. predator, massive, ABL2). This occurs with no other instruments in the project.
It cant seem to take the CPU.
Here is what I have….
Apple iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83GHz 512MB (2x256MB) 160GB (upgraded with 2gig of ram – as much as it can take!)
Logic 7
OSX 10.4.11
M Audio Oxygen V8 midi keyboard
Memory 2GB667 MHz DDR SD RAM
1.47gb memory free
92.82gb space free on hard drive
Can anyone offer some advice? Surely for what I have paid for the system, I should be able to get more out of it than this?…. is there anything else I can do to boost processing power?
Any help is massively appreciated!Hi David,
Before sleeping out of your window waiting your Imac, maybe I would suggest couple things:
- Getting LOGIC 7.2.3
- Getting last M-AUDIO drivers (if lot compliant one)
- Repair permissions with let's say ONYX software.
- Are you using external firewire hardrive? (issue for some of Imac sometimes)
if this still causes you troubles, then you 'll see my face outside your house with my arms ready.
Cheers. -
Audio recorded LATE... please help before I throw my MBP out the window!!!
Surely SOMEONE must have an answer to this:
Audio is being recorded LATE in the arrange. WHAT'S GOING ON?!!?!?
- There are NO effects across the output.
- This happens regardless of the soundcard - tested on an RME FF800 and an Mbox.
- It seems to be late by a random amount each time but seems to increase with track count/plugin use.
- Changing the buffer size makes no difference.
- Delay compensation settings make no difference.
- Recording delay slider is centered.
I'm runnning Logic 9.1 with a 2.53GHz 4Gb Macbook Pro on 10.5.8. I've had this problem ever since upgrading to L9.
It's driving me crazy. I'm a full-time writer/producer, and this is making every hour of my professional life very difficult!!!
Anyone?!it's really weird actually... sometimes a new session will be fine at first, and sometimes there's latency straight away, but eventually it's sure to creep in, whether there are plugins on tracks or not... in fact, playing along with the click yields the same result, so it's nothing to do with where i'm perceiving the timing of pre-recorded parts to be (again, there are NO effects strapped across the output).
as i hinted at previously, a friend of mine had the exact same problem, so unless we're birdbrains of a feather it seems there is a problem with logic! -

Please help before it kills my entire library!
I’m sure this has come up before but I have to ask.
When I add new songs to my iTunes, it will “misplace” older ones and adds exclamation points to them?
At first I thought this was because I had to have my hard drive replaced and it lost the original songs but the more songs I add, the more get “lost” and now its started to affect the songs that I have purchased from iTunes recently so I KNOW its not due to the hard drive replacement. What can I do? Way too many of my songs are exclamationed now. I backed up the list several weeks ago because I had a suspicion this was what was wrong. The weird part is, even though the songs are gone in iTunes, it doesn’t delete them from the iPod. Even if I clear those songs. It will add the new ones just fine, but it won’t delete the old ones. There doesn’t appear to be any rhyme or reason to the deletion of my songs. They just go as I add more. I have 330 songs and 70 of them are exclamationed. I had more but started deleting them before I figured out what was happening. So far, I seems to only happen when I add new music, no matter where its from. It even happens when I purchase from iTunes. Please help before it kills my entire library!
I have an 8 gig iPod so I know its not because its full. Oh, and Im running on an older Gateway, but I can’t even begin to tell you what year or anything and OS is Windows XP Pro. I also have the latest version of iTunes and update regularly. Any other info you need?
I haven’t needed to lately, but Im scared for if I need to restore my iPod. (I have had to do it once before) Im sure that it will delete the songs that have been preserved that were deleted on the tunes. One more thing, it APPEARS to be mixing up the artwork on the iPod itself with other artists. For example, my Kerli artwork is now my Matchbox 20 artwork and so on. That problem is only with a few songs though.
Any ideas? Thanks SO much for trying to help!Check your Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Music folder location to make sure that it is correct. Also, is "Keep iTunes Music folder organized checked"? Have you tried to Consolidate Library? (Note: I'm not saying to do that, yet, just asking if you have.) Have you used Windows Explorer to actually locate your music?
I've seen where iTunes could be "missing" a song but not indicate it with the exclamation mark until some action is attempted -- moving, dragging, playing. For me it would be because I forgot to turn on the external drive where my music is stored. But then, once I mount the drive, I still have to point iTunes to its Music folder again. -
At My Wits End - Please Help Before I Contact OFCO...
I have been loyal BT customer since... well having a landline in my name.
We have been experiencing problems with BT / BT Broadband now for over 3 months. During this period we have had over 6 engineer visits an countless phone calls to BT Customer Services and also their Priority Care desk and the problem is still not resolved.
Over 3 weeks ago I also sent an email to BT asking for contact from someone residing in the UK that could assist with the issue. I asked for a response within 10 working days and stated failure to respond would result in contacting OFCOM, watchdog and/or Trading Standards.
The problem comprises of two issues -
1] very slow broadband connection - no more than 0.13Mb/s at best (and that is when we have a connection at all
2] zero broadband connection
The telephone line crackles badly too, but as the landline is only there for the broadband this doesn't really concern us too much. We use our mobiles for phone calls.
A similar fault stems back to 2008 when we started experiencing slowing connection speeds, but after a service visit the fault appeared to be fixed until this time last year it slowed to a death again. Following another engineer visit connection stabilised at around 1Mb/s. Then 3 months ago the problem started all over again.
Whenever I call the customer service line, we get routed to their call centre in India where we just keep being fobbed off by engineer visits by engineers that are either not capable of doing the work or do not have the time allocated to do a comprehensive service.
We have been told a huge number of excuses (From aluminium in the ground running next to the cables to faults with our equipment in the house (which has all been replaced for new within the last 3 months) to "we can't find a problem") as to why the service is unstable and slow.
Another Engineer is booked for tomorrow morning, but I am fairly confident they will not solve the issue.
The lack of service is causing problems trying to sort out year end Self Assessment, book holidays, online banking etc... over and above communicating with family living abroad (via Skype) and general surfing - all things we can not do from work.
I have a brief record of all the attempts to resolve the issue including records of speed tests. I can also get the entire case history from BT if necessary (as I think they are compiled by law to hand over any notes they have taken). I also obviously have a copy of the email sent to direct to BT.
Can someone here please, please help or advise who I need to contact to get the issue sorted out for once and for all before I take the matter further?
Solved!
Go to Solution.1) What is the maximum speed you can get in your area? Type your number into the box on the right of the following web page:
http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/consumerProducts/displayTopic.do?topicId=29017
It will tell you whether you can get BT Infinity and what your potential line speed is for your area.
2) What package are you on? All BT packages are subject to a Fair Usage policy. Even if you are on the 'Unlimited' package your speed will be slowed down if you are a heavy user. Contact BT (call 150 from a BT landline) and choose the options concerning questions about products. Don't choose the fault options else you'll be put through to India. This way you will hopefully be put through to somebody in England as I was, and you can get the matter solved more easily. Try and find out whether your account / line has been put under Network Management.
3) What products do you connect to the Internet with? Xbox? BT Vision? Give us a full list.
4) As the above user imjolly said, run the BT speedtester and post some of your router information. A moderator then may be able to provide assistance. -

Hi,
I have been trying very hard to understand what the problem I
have been having is. Basically I am loading an external XML file
into my FLEX app. I have add/update/delete functions that basically
alter the existing XML tree. Everything is altered fine, as when I
use Alert.show() to view the altered XML it is exactly how I wanted
it. When it is altered I have it sent using http service to a PHP
script that simply overwrites the existing file with the new
altered XML. However, it seems that it will not send the XML,
although it will send other values. I have tried copying the output
XML and placing it in the PHP file and it works fine. There is
definately something going wrong when sending the formatted XML to
the PHP script. I have tried many combinations of .toString() and
.toXMLString(). It seems complex XML will not work, as I have only
had problems with this technique using the Rich Text Editor and
with complex XML , such as the following structure...

preventing Complex XML from being passed to the PHP when simpler
XML works fine...

I know thre reason, why on vista it's ok and on w7 it's not.
On W7, do maximum power state of the processor to 99 percent. This is default on vista.
It helped a lot of people.
