Please help me before I break my computer!!!

I dont know much about my ipod so here goes....I originally had all of my music on my parents computer and now have my own. I tried to update my Ipod Nano and I keep getting messages saying I'm not authorized to have some songs on it because I purchased them from my parents computer and now I don't know what to do. When it did update my songs that weren't purchased halfway through doing so an error came up for some reason and now i have only like 20 songs on my ipod and keep getting error messages that won't allow the hundred other ones i have in my library. All of my songs including previously purchased ones are still in the library...it just won't let me transfer them. Plus I also have the issue that i just want to update newly purchased songs....not all of them every time I plug my ipod in. Please give me any advice...it's greatly appreciated!!!!

"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

uninstall and reinstall
there is a complicated way to work with just the mobile device support but its simpler just to uninstall itunes and related components and then reinstall itunes
ur music will be fine, u will just lose the playlists. but ur mobile device support will be working again.

Ready to dump my G5. Please help me before I do! Kernel panics gallore!

I have been experiencing kernel panics everytime I startup my G5 for the last 5 months. It started as an occassional event until it became an every time event. I got to the point that the computer would not start even after trying 10+ times successfully. I only managed to do it by booting up with a bootable CD or with my backup Firewire drive. I was unable to boot up with the Firewire drive when I selected it as a startup disk though. In any case, the kernel panics always occur at startup. I ran all kinds of diagnostics including Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro and Disk Utilities. All 3 always showed that my computer has no problems. Every test passed. I repaired permissions countless times, followed all different advices on how to deal with kernel panics, etc. I finally decided to erase my drive by zeroing and start from scratch. Before re-installing Tiger I ran diagnostics again to make sure nothing was wrong with the drive and the rest of my computer and all tests passed. I finally re-installed Tiger and to my frustration the problem continues even when all I have loaded in my computer is Tiger. I am able to startup without getting a kernel panic the first time after I have re-installed Tiger (have done it 3-4 times in the last week or so) but then on a second trial I get back to the same situation. I forgot to mention that I got the panics even while re-installing Tiger and while running Techtool Pro. I had to perform hard startups several times before I was able to complete the tests and re-install Tiger. In most cases whenever I get the kernel panics if I don't do a hard startup my diks accelerates very rapidly and gets the fans running at full and very noisy speed. Throughout this whole deal all the diagnostics tools have been unable to identify the problem. Do I need to trash my computer? As far as I am concerned I have tried everything I can think of for the last 3 months to no avail. The situation kept deteriorating with time so it sounds like a hardware problem and as if one of the internal parts is just dying a slow death. Any words of wisdom will do. I have owned close to 7 Macs over the years (this one is about 2 years old) and this is the first time I have felt like trashing one. Please Help!!

Hello!
I had the same problem once - it was the Ram, but Hardware Test didn´t get it. It just said everythings ok - So for testing if the Ram is ok, I put out all the Ram that was in and always tried 2 slices at one time. Well it works fine to check when you have more than 2 slices of Ram, but if not maybe you´ve got friends to borrow some working Ram from them. After I´ve tried that I found out that there were 2 slices out of 6 damaged. After replacing the damaged no Kernell Panics again.
But I hope you have a less costs problem!
Yours,
Jörg

TO CEO @ VERIZON OR TO SOMEONE WHO CARES*** PLEASE HELP ME *** BEFORE I GO CRAZY

I have a vortex by LG. I got it in feb.2011. I have had trouble with it since that day. Turning off all the time , screen locking up, sending txt to someone different ,SD card not working ,which I have handled all these problems myself by resetting/swiping it clean often (which is a pain) taking the battery out , turning it off for a few hours , blah blah blah ,you know all the stuff you do to have a phone on the go. I asked around & most other people who had this phone was pleased. I only know off 3 other people who have this phone. then about a 3wks ago the SD card wouldn't mount or just wouldn't read @ all. I tried everything I knew to do . I go to the Verizon store waited my entire lunch break ( 1 hour) finally someone tried to help me I told him my problem he said well your going have to buy a new SD card which was about 60$ . I felt I waited for nothing. I spent over an hour for him too hold my phone & tell me pay more money. he still couldn't tell me why it did this or how to fix it . Just pay more money . Well I had a extra SD card from my camera it worked then few day later starts the same thing , good thing I didn't buy one cause looks like I would have had to spend it again anyways , but I could @ least call out & get calls. Finally a few days later my screened locked up completely I tried all the blah blah blah stuff again. This time it was no fixing it . I go to a different Verizon store hoping to get better/faster help I walk in & tell the lady my problem again on my lunch break she picks up the phone dials customer service & hands me the phone. I think really I could have did this myself why are you people even here! So the guy on the phone says your still under warranty we will send you a new phone or u can upgrade & get a new phone I asked for what kind of price he said the price of the phone , I said no thanks I just paid 200$ for this phone & haven't even got to enjoy it , just send me a new phone he said it could take up to 5 days!!! What I said can , u get it here any faster he replied yes for 13$ I can ship it overnight but it would take 2 days uh, just thought he said overnight!!! I guess over night doesn't mean what it says but I said I don't feel I should pay it since I really didn't break my phone he said there was nothing he could do but it probably wouldn't take the full 5 days they just have to say that ... Wow OK so 5 days goes by without any phone to use . I finally get the phone but it take the full 5 days,plus the 2 days I tried to fix it to avoid the stores I follow the instruction to activate it thought it was fine but then the next morning I get a call @ work from my babysitter stating my phone still didn't work!! After work I go back to the 1st Verizon store (which I dreaded so much I would have rather shot myself in the foot , but I'm a nurse who needs my foot & phone) since I had no help from either stores guess it didn't matter which one I went too. After waiting a good 45 MINUTES for help they finally look @ my phone they were stumped on what was wrong cause it said it was activated but not working they finally call someone & the guy finally tell me its is activated under someone else's # ! OK so what do I do ?? The guy hands me the phone says they needs to verify my address ( which I thought to make sure I account holder ) I gave the phone back to the guy @ the store they talk for a few more MINUTES. & he said OK , I was like OK what ! Oh he didn't tell you we are going have to send you NEW phone again!!! Really I have to go another 6 days without a phone!! He offered if I brought an old phone back in(which I live 20 MINUTES away) he could activate that one till I get the new phone in... 1st off I don't keep old phones I recycle them ( thought that was a good thing)& even if I did have one it wouldn't be a smartphone & that's what I pay dearly for... ( a phone store who can't lend you a phone while they are fixing your phone that you didn't break even thou you are still paying them for a phone) MESSED UP RIGHT! He said it shouldn't be that long they are going to overnight it for free but it was Saturday So he said I should get it TUESDAY.**lol overnight what !! Do I not know what overnight means*** I was like yeah yeah YOU ALL say that ! I left the store in tears I depend on my phone I have a 1 yr old child & my job depends on my phone as well . I go home from work Tuesday no phone image that , Wednesday I get a letter from fedx stating I was not home to sign for this device ! Really cause the last one was just put in my mailbox , didn't have to sigh anything the 1st time. I finally get the phone on THURSDAY. It was late so I waited till Friday to activate since I have already been without a phone for 12 days now. Today is Saturday. Guess what??? My phone is saying to mount the SD card again ! OK really I just been thru 3 phone in 13 days!! I DON'T FEEL I HAVE DONE ANYTHING WRONG TO MY PHONE . I KNOW NEW TECHNOLOGY IS GOING TO HAVE ITS MISTAKES SOMETIMES !! BUT NOT @ MY COST!!!

Please help - how to copy DVD to computer so that it will play on computer

I apologize if this is the wrong forum, but I am stuck. I have a DVD of my son-in-law's memorial service that I need to copy onto my computer in a playable form. The DVD itself works great on both the TV, and on the computer (playing with iDVD on the latter). However, I simply do not know how to copy the contents of the DVD to my hard drive so that it will play directly from the drive, and so that I can place the video file in my .Mac public folder for relatives to download. When I open (not play) the DVD, I see two folders: AUDIO_TS which is empty, and VIDEO_TS, which contains files. I have copied these to my hard drive, and I have also made a disk image of the DVD on my drive. However, neither of these gives me a file on which I can click and get it to play. (If I insert the DVD itself into the computer, iDVD launches and the movie plays). Please help. Thank you!

Please help me before i headbutt the wall. Using an external sequencer....

Hi.
I use an Akai MPC to sequence.
I have the MPC triggering sounds from various modules. However, i want it to trigger Logic Instruments, so i would have logic running at the same time as the MPC, but with the sounds of logic being played from the MIDI info on the MPC.
I have the midi out (from MPC) running into my soundcard. When i play a pad on the MPC Logic reads the note.
I want to set up logic with 5 different software instruments (for instance), each being controlled by a different midi channel on the MPC. I have loaded 5 instruments, and set each ones MIDI Channel from 1-5 respectivly. On the MPC, i have set up 5 tracks, each transmitting through the correct midi port, but from channels 1-5. In Logic, when the instrument channel is selected, the pads play that instrument. When i select a different track in logic, the sounds stop playing. Its as if the midi signal only goes through to that specific instrument when i have that track selected.
I want my 5 instrument tracks in Logic to play at the same time, being controlled by 5 midi tracks on the MPC.
I have looked all over logic to try to find settings to adjust but with no joy. I'm thinking it possibly has something to do with the environment page. I've been reading on this but still very confused about that page!
Please help!
Thanks,
Danny

1.) I dont understand where I should open
ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
If I open it in the servlet(which is what I am doing
now) I have to pass it to the method. This seems like
what I should do. Is this correct?
2.) Is there a way to check the length of
inputStream? I tried is.available(); and nothing. Not
null - Not zero - nothing - blank.
Something wrong with your logic (not your code - your logic.)
available() returns an int. So if it returned it definitely returned an int value. It might not have returned (although I doubt it) but there is no way for it to return a 'blank'.
3.)How are they coming up with this number in this
line? byte b[] = new byte[16384];
Arbritarty. Choose any number you want. Small probably isn't good though.
Do I need to pass the length of my file here? The
above equals 16 kb but the file in this example is
28.5
Pass it where? Just guessing but I thing the length of the data (whether that is the file length or not) is needed.
4.) os.write(b,0,numBytes); - what does the zero mean
here? b is the new byte and numBytes equals the
number of bytes read? Is this correct?The b is a byte array. Zero is the index in the byte array where it needs to start.
is = rs.getBinaryStream(2);It generally isn't a good idea to extract fields from a result set out of order (you are skipping 1);
System.out.println("os" + os);This is pretty pointless. All you are doing is printing the hash of the reference. You can't print what is in there but you can print the byte buffer as hex if you want to see that.
numBytes17What makes you think that you actually even have the word doc in the database rather than just the name of the file?
What makes you think that the field that you are extracting is the blob field rather than just a name field? In other words you expect that field two is the blob field - how do you know that field 3 is not the blob field (you didn't post the query string.)

Please help converting i-tunes from old computer to new computer!!?

Hi there,
Please keep in mind I am not very computer literate and therefore although I am sure this is a very easy question I can't do it and I need some help!!!
I have upgraded my old computer. This had my i-tunes on it, however after a while it got so slow I started to keep music on an external hard drive, which resulted in my music files being split. I have now dragged and dropped everything on to my hard drive under one folder (I think) and I now want to put this on to my new computer.
Well actually I want to keep my library on the hard drive so that anything I download etc goes on to there (this computer is just a stop gap for now). I have changed the file location in preferences but cannot seem to get it to pick up the music from the hard drive!!!
What do I do!!? Any help appreciated...!
Thanks in advance

Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
This Apple article (link) explains how to move your music library between computers and in addition it explains how you can ensure all your music is consolidated into one location. Hopefully that will cover everything you need.
kind regards

Please advise.

Yes, you can get the songs off your iPod. This question gets asked a lot.

Please help me before I jump off a bridge!

The thread title says it all.
I have an existing PDFthat someone gave me, it has no security set, and according to the security info I can print and change the document.
I cannot, I can highlight text, but cannot add or overtype it. Can anyone say why?
I am also trying to add some text to an end page, I want to add some contact details, tel no, and a hyperlink to a site, I cannot.
It does not seem possible to add this, I cannot type the text in. I tried to add a field, which (sort of) worked in that I could specify text content, it was not ideal,
I don't really want a text box I want text on the page, but it sort of worked. Can I add what is effectively a label text to a page?
Next whinge.
In the textbox I added a hyperlink (sort of) it was a mouse action when you click it should open a hyperlink, not...
The hyperlink was set up, and try as I might I cannot get it to look right or make it apparent to the visitor that it is a link (mouse changes to a pointer, as with normal hyperlinks) .
When I key in www.google.com (or whatever) the www. part seems italic, or lighter text than the rest of this link text. (A way around is to make it all bold, yuk)
Another feature is that the url I was using had a 4th w in it, so www.whumbuglalalalala.com (e.g.) the document then insisted that the 4th w appeared not to be part of the hyperlink, so the www.w was lighter weight font, and the humbuglalal etc was a heavier weight (not bold)
In light of all the above, can anyone say why I cannot edit/add more text to an existing document. and can anyone please tell me how, or even if I can add a PROPER hyperlink complete with mousey pointer that will open a website from this document?
Why is this soooo hard, If I use word, and type in www.google.com then even word (stupid as it is) recognises it's a link, even this editor does!
I can't even do this on a new document, I'm using Acrobat pro 9. W Vista.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
McP

This was a text field box, font size 12 Helvetica, then I tried two methods of making a link.
Method one was on the Actions tab of the text field properties box, select the Actions tab, trigger mouse down/up action Open a web link.
Method two, select the text drag highlight then tools advanced editing link tool, then carry out making a link process.
Both methods work (ish) and both show the lumpy text.
I have just spoken to a colleague who says (like you, it's an optical illusion, live with it!) It prints off ok so I will, but I'd be interested to know why it does this. (but it won't kill me if I don't find out)
As a matter of interest what is the best way to make a pdf doc? In a separate posting someone suggested to me, make the doc in word, then pdf it, so that you have the word doc as the original. Do you have any other/better suggestions?
Thanks Rob.

Please help me before I break my computer!!!
