Please help meeee!! Problems with library and syncing on new laptop

Hi I've bought a new laptop and want to start using itunes on the new one, however:
Problem 1- Even though I've enabled both devices and have clicked on the home sharing, only the songs I have purchased from itunes show in my library and playlists (I managed to import my playlist titles by copying the file and emailing it to myself but it won't show songs other than those purchased from itunes) How can I get the library to show the 500 odd songs I've painstakingly spent importing to itunes on my old, slow laptop? If I have to do them all again I may just have a breakdown!!!
Problem 2- Have imported a CD into itunes library using my new laptop but it won't show on my ipod after syncing it. I think I have enough space cos the bottom bar says 3.26 GB free!
I'm really not very techie and don't use itunes much so there may be something glaringly obvious that I'm doing wrong. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it
Thanks
Cheryl

Home Sharing doesn't really matter, if you plan to stop using the old computer for iTunes.
Apple has this document
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
You should use the method titled External drive. If you use this method, you can ignore the rest of the document.
The details are in the document, but to summarize this process (so that you have the "big picture" before reading the details)...
You are copying your iTunes folder from the old laptop to the external drive, and then copying that iTunes folder from the external drive to the new laptop. When you copy the iTunes folder to the new laptop, you are replacing the existing iTunes folder. The next time you start up iTunes on the new laptop, it will use the iTunes folder from the old laptop, and it should look like iTunes running on the old laptop.
When you read through the document, it may be easier to understand if you keep my "overview" in mind. Please ask any questions you may have about the "details" in the document.
NOTE: If you have new songs on the new laptop that are not in your old laptop's iTunes library, you need to keep the existing iTunes folder on the new laptop. After you have successfully transfered your iTunes folder from the old laptop to the new laptop, and everything is OK when you run iTunes on the new laptop, THEN add the new songs. This is in the document.
You should put Problem 2 aside until the above is completed.

Total iMac failure! Please help. Problems with freezing, and time machine

My iMac has started to go crazy over the last week. It started crashing repeatedly, so much so that it could take me 10 tries just to get it going. I was able to run disk warrior and disk utility and neither of those came up with any issues. I took it into the apple store and they repaired permissions and cleared the cache and of course nothing happened while the mac was in the store.
When I came home I started trying to clear out excess files and organize to save space and memory. I downloaded cleanmymac as well as crucial.com's scanner as recommended by the mac genius. Unfortunately, that night after everything had been working fine, the computer started crashing all over again. I get lines through my screen, it locks up, things get distorted, etc.
In addition, I noticed today that all of my time machine backups have been deleted from my machine. The only one that exists is a huge one that was created the day after it was examined at the store. I have no idea how that happened as I have not touched the time machine settings. To make matters worse, the time machine will not even back up now. It says there isn't enough space. (There are 160GB available). Shouldn't it just be making incremental backups? All I am doing at this point is deleting files anyway!
If anyone has any suggestions at all, please offer them!!!

Hi, unfortunately it sounds as though your Mac needs the attentions of an Apple Service Technician.
You do not say how old your Mac is or if you have Applecare..
In any event I feel you will do best as I previously said -> Apple Service Technician.

In this context, that can sometimes indicate trouble with a content file on the phone (or Touch).
Do you have any podcasts stored on the iPhone at the moment? If so, if you delete them from the phone, can you connect to iTunes without the error?

I can get itunes to start if I disable Bonjour or if I "repair" it first. Sometimes I can repair Bonjour though add/remove programs, sometimes it will only "repair" using WinRar. Sometimes I have to "repair" Bonjour 2 or 3 times to get iTunes to start.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling at least a dozen times. I have tried redownloading iTunes at least 5 times and from different links. This leads me to believe that the dnssd.dll file is not itself corrupt, but this newest version is causing a conflict with XP somewhere somehow.
Team, iTunes 10.2.2.12 has just been released. I installed it and checked, and BonJour's been updated to version 2.0.5.0, and there's a new 2.0.5.0 version of dnssd.dll on my system. So I reckon it's worth a try updating to that to see if it's of any help with your trouble.

PLEASE HELP! Problems with Cisco WLAN and WPA encryption

I checked the threads and didn't see this posted. I have a Cisco WLAN card in my T42_2373_C88. It's a very unfortunate thing that this wireless LAN card/wireless config. utitlity doesn't support WPA encryption. I'm not entirely sure that it's the problem with the WLAN card, and the reason for this is that I initially set up a network through the Windows config. utility bypassing the IBM utility (which I can no longer do). I wasn't actually able to connect to my local network until I completely removed the profile for my home network in the access connections, only then was I able to connect (WPA-PSK (TKIP)). I saw some drivers available for my make and model on the lenovo.com driver site. I downloaded the drivers and went through device manager specifying the folder where the drivers were located and the drivers were not recognized by windows as valid drivers. Unless specifically told otherwise, I don't want to manually override and load these drivers. This is a business machine, and this specific wireless function is VERY critical.
Thanks

Problem with iTunes and sync'n Contacts

I'm a new user to the iPod and iTunes in general. Unfortunately I've encountered a few problems with putting contacts on my iPod. I have the new video 5th generation iPod and Microsoft Outlook 2003, however when I try and sync the contacts to the iPod - iTunes closes with the message 'iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close'. The error signature offset is '35f76ad2'. I have absolutely no idea what this means.
I have tried manually moving the contacts from Outlook to my iPod but this doesn't take the pictures with it.
I also tried installing a version of iTunes prior to 7.0.0 until I realised my iPod could only use version 7 or later.
Can someone please help - even if it's just contact information for Apple to help me out!

Please Help! Problems with Windows Vista 32-bit on Boot Camp (Wireless/Etc)

We recently purchased a new aluminum Mac Book (13 inch) with Leopard (10.5.4). I attempted to install Boot Camp and Windows Vista 32-bit. I can successfully alternate between both operating systems with no problems. However, I am having 2 problems:
1) I cannot connect to wireless internet. No connections will even show up when I attempt to connect, its almost as if an adapter hasn't been installed.
2) I cannot set up the trackpad to do right click.
I've read articles everywhere and nothing has helped. Can anybody please help me??? Any support/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
- Pierce

dpierceNKC:
Welcome to the Apple discussions.
It appears that you may not have installed the boot camp drivers. Boot into Windows and insert your Leopard installation disk in the CD/DVD drive. This should automatically begin installation of the necessary drivers. Reboot the computer when instructed and all the hardware should work as designed.
The right click is accomplished by placing two fingers on the trackpad and then depressing the trackpad button. This should also work after the drivers are installed as instructed above.

[PLEASE HELP!] Problems with iPod Classic 160GB.

Okay, I was about to sync my iPod Classic 160GB and go to bed. I plugged it in and everything was good. I am not sure if it was syncing yet, but it fell off the cord because my HP laptop moved. I wasn't worried at the time, The apple screen came up so I pressed Middle Button+Menu to reset it, then I plugged it back in. When I plugged it back in it said I had to format the drive in G.. The screen of the iPod said Connected Eject before disconnecting and had the circle arrows like when it is loading. It seems to be working fine when I unplug it.
But anyways, When I unplugged it a second time (I did click Disconnect in the toolbar on the actual device, not in iTunes) it didn't work again, and it brought up the grey apple screen again, then went to the language. so I plugged it back in. Then I said OK to the reformat. I clicked Default settings to the format and left the Volume Label blank because I don't know what that is...
It said WARNING: Formatting your iPod will delete all files on it, or something along the lines of that. so, I said okay, I'll just resync it, just get on the reformat. When I clicked format it said that it couldn't format my iPod... So, once again, I disconnected it, ejecting from the actual device in the toolbar, and it was absolutely cleared asking me for the Language. It keeps doing this every time I plug it in, and even when I switch USB slots. it wont read into my iTunes either.
I am really sad, and please answer because my iPod is basically my life, this is my worst nightmare come true.
PLEASE ANSWER QUICK, Thanks...

PLEASE HELP - Serious problem with my Creative Zen Touch firmware

Ok, so I finally decided that I would upgrade to the latest firmware version for my Creative Zen Touch. I knew that doing so would erase everything on it, so I backed up everything onto my computer's hard dri've. So from that standpoint, I'm in the clear.
HOWEVER, during the upgrade process, my computer froze, leaving my precious MP3 player without ANY firmware. This then drove it into "recovery" mode, where I can either clean up, format, or reload firmware. I've gone through each of these options, but when I go to "reload firmware" my computer will no longer detect my Zen! I've tried reinstalling different driver versions, different firmware versions, etc. The bottom line now is that my mp3 player has no firmware, and my computer won't detect it.
I feel like I probably need to go back to the basics. Unfortuantely, I don't have my installation CD with me. Can anyone post the initial installation file please? Thanks in advance!
I really hope I can work this out, I don't know if I've gone a day without my Zen in the past two years!

Simon, this is actually a common problem with the touch. Mine did it about a year after purchase, so I was safe to open it up and fix it. It is actually a really simple fix and is due to a loose connector. I know alot of other people on nomadness.net were having this problem, so I posted a solution here. Hope this helps!

PLEASE, PLEASE HELP: Big problems with my Zen Touch. (Firmware/driver issu

So here's the deal:
Last night I thought I'd finally take the time to upgrade my Zen Touch to 2. from .3 or something like that. I noticed that there was a warning saying that this was no small upgrade, and that I should back up everything I have on it.
I'm glad I did, because now my MP3 player situation is seriously screwed up, big time. During the upgrade process, my computer froze, leaving my Zen Touch without firmware (ok, so firmware version 0.0.0). Upon turning the device on, it boots up in recovery mode. This allows me to either format, clean up, or "reupload" firmware. I've tried all of these options, but the fact is clear that my computer simply will no longer recognize my MP3 player.
It does, however, recognize it at as a generic storage device. However, this isn't enough for me to reinstall the player's firmware unfortunately.
So basically, I can't update driver or firmware right now, because my computer won't acknowlege my Zen Touch!
Somebody please, please help.
I've already tried using the setup file from http://www.jumpingcholla.com/jce_nomad_ZEN.htm.
Seriously, please help!

Sort of success!
I now finally have firmware 2. installed on my Zen Touch! Yeah! I'm not entirely sure how I did it, and I'm not bothering to find out, I'm just glad I finally got it on there.
But some problems still remain. After all this fiddling with my driver and firmware and whatnot, my computer just doesn't see my MP3 the same way as it used to. Before, it was great, all I had to do was plug her in and I could bring up Zen Explorer in Windows Explorer, or organize my stuff in Creative MediaSource.
Now that's not the case. The only way I can sort of add stuff to my player now is by going into Windows Explorer, which is still more or less acknowleging my player as a "portable device". Granted, there is a dri've called "My Zen", but it doesn't bring up Zen Explorer like it used to when I click on it. Furthermore, when I go into MediaSource, I can't select it as a location, there just isn't anything there.
It almost seems as if my computer thinks I'm just using a portable hard dri've. Is there anyway I can tell it that it's an MP3 player, too?
Thanks!

The following example to guide through the steps to create a working
example of this.
In this example, the checkbox is used to select the records. On clicking
the update button, the pl/sql procedure is called which will update col1 to
the string 'OK'.
After the update is done, the PL/SQL procedure calls the report again.
Since the report only select records where col1 is null, the updated
records will not be displayed when the report is called again.
Step 1 - Create Table
From Sqlplus, log in as scott/tiger and execute the following:
drop table chkbox_example;
create table chkbox_example
(id varchar2(10) not null,
comments varchar2(20),
col1 varchar2(10));
Step 2 - Insert Test Data
From Sqlplus, still logged in as scott/tiger , execute the following:
declare
l_i number;
begin
for l_i in 1..50 loop
insert into chkbox_example values (l_i, 'Comments ' || l_i , NULL);
end loop;
commit;
end;
Step 3 -Create SQL Query based WEBDB report
Logon to a WEBDB site which has access to the database the above tables are created.
Create a SQL based Report.
Name the report :RPT_CHKBOX
The select statement for the report is :
select c.id, c.comments, c.col1,
htf.formcheckbox('p_qty',c.id) Tick
from SCOTT.chkbox_example c
where c.col1 is null
In Advanced PL/SQL, (REPORT, Before displaying the form), put the following code
htp.formOpen('scott.chkbox_process');
htp.formsubmit('p_request','Update');
htp.br;
htp.br;
Step 4 - Create a stored procedure in the database
Log on to the database as scott/tiger and execute the following to create the
procedure.
Note: Replace WEBDB to the appropriate webdb user for your installation.
In my database, I had installed webdb using WEBDB username, hence user webdb owns
the packages.
create or replace procedure chkbox_process
( p_request in varchar2 default null,
p_qty in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr ,
p_arg_names in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr ,
p_arg_values in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr
is
i number;
begin
for i in 1..p_qty.count loop
if p_qty(i) is not null then
begin
update chkbox_example
set col1 = 'OK'
where chkbox_example.id = p_qty(i);
end;
end if;
end loop;
commit;
/* To Call Report again after updating */
SCOTT.RPT_CHKBOX.show
(p_request=>'Run Report',
p_arg_names=>webdb.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(' '),
p_arg_values=>webdb.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2(' '));
end;
Summary
There are essentially 2 main modules, The WEBDB report and the pl/sql procedure (chkbox_process)
A button is created via the advanced pl/sql coding which shows on top of the report. (The
button cannot be placed at the bottom of the report due to the way WEBDB creates the procedure
internally)
When any button is clicked on the report, it calls the pl/sql procedure chkbox_process.
The procedure is called , WEBDB always passes the parameters p_request,p_arg_names and o_arg_values.
p_qty is another parameter that we are passing additionally, This comes from the checkbox created
using the htf.formcheckbox in the report select statement.
The pl/sql procedure calls the report again after processing. This is done to
show how to call the report.
Restrictions:
-The Next and Prev buttons on the report will not work.
So it is important that the report can fit in 1 page only.
(This may mean that you will not select(not ticked) 'Paginate' under
'Display Option' in the WEBDB report. If you do this,
then in Step 4, remove p_arg_names and p_arg_values as input parameters
to the chkbox_process)

If your not so sure you can use the instanceof
insurance,
Object o = evt.getSource();
if (o instanceof Button) {
Button source = (Button) o;
I haven't thoroughly read the thread, but I use something like this:if (evt.getSource() == someObjRef) {
// do that voodoo
]I haven't looked into why you'd be creating a new reference...

Problem with library and vault

I would like to know how to take all photos out of Aperture and start over.
When I upgraded to V.3, I think I set things up incorrectly. I had a vault but now there is no vault and I now have folders that appear under Projects & Albums that indicate Aperture Vault, Aperture Vault (1) and Aperture Vault (2). I did not make these folders. There are duplicates of photos in "Aperture Vault and Aperture Vault (1)" folders. I had used an external drive for the vault with V2 and now there is a Aperture Vault on the external drive and also on the internal drive and also an Aperture Library on both the internal and external drives. In the Vault and Vault (1) folders there are folders with the same names but different numbers of photos in the projects. I just would really like to start over and import my photos again; I don't really care about adjustments at this point, only the masters.
Vault
Vault(1)

Linda,
You did not post the entire screenshot of your Library Inspector, but I suspect I know what's going on. Is the "Vault" a blue folder, as well as the "Vault(1)"?
I also have a top-level folder called "SimpleDrive Vault", which was the name of an Aperture 2 vault which I had to restore. (I had the unfortunately coincidence of a hard drive going bad the day I was intended to install Aperture 3. I got a new hard drive, installed Ap 3, and then restored the Ap 2 library to start.) When restoring your vault, Aperture may just create a new top-level folder with your vault name underneath it. There is nothing wrong with it. It is not your vault. It is a folder with your vault name. You can choose to restructure everything (I.e., drag and drop stuff wherever you want), although you may have duplicates.
I imagine that the duplicates are part of the problem you are trying to solve. However, there is no way around it. To "start over", as you asked, you will necessary have to send every photo outside of Aperture, duplicates included, and them import them. I.e., you will have duplicates no matter what.
To answer your question specifically, the best way to "start over" in your case is probably to "relocate Masters" for every photo in your library to a location of your choosing, trash your library (which would then contain only your project structure, and not any photos), and then create a new library and reimport your photos. Keep in mind what I stated above, though. You will just end up with a new library with the same structure as the old library.
