Problem with latest 1.2.1 update for Ipod
After updating my 5th gen Ipod (30G) with the latest 1.2.1 software release - it gets stuck when browsing my songs. After this I tried the full restore option, and put only 10 songs on the Ipod - after a few clicks it got stuck again. I can reset the Ipod - after this it works for another few minutes depending how much I browse. Anyone else who has this problem with 1.2.1? Please help.
Having taken my ailing iPod to an Apple store and had it checked over by one of the experts in the Genius Bar I was told it was the hard drive that was malfunctioning. If your iPods are whirring and clicking and generally sounding like they are groaning rather than speeding into action I would highly recommend you get in touch with Apple. Mine was still under warranty and they were happy to replace it with a brand new one (not a reconditioned one) which works perfectly even with that dodgy software update installed. The fact my machine was freezing and playing up was caused by the hard drive and not the software apparently. Good luck!

Problem with Latest Epson Printer Driver Update
I installed the Epson printer driver update that came out today, but it made absolutely no difference. My Epson printer is still using a the same old Epson driver plus Gutenprint. There is no other option. I don't get it. What's the point of installing the update if the printer is still stuck with Gutenprint? My printer (Epson Stylus Photo R340) is supported according to Apple's list.

Thanks for that tip, John. I found the "Epson SP R340 series" driver by searching for it as you suggested.
Happy to help Alan.
HOWEVER, I cannot print with this driver. I get the following error message when I try to print:
Error: Library/Printers/EPSON/InketPrinter2/Filter/rastertoescpll.app/Contents/MacOS/r astertoescpll failed
This seems common with the Epson drivers, there are several posts here with that problem. Some users have had success deleting the printer from Print & Fax Prefs and adding it again using the Epson (non-Gutenprint) driver. Others have had to delete the <hard drive>/Library/Printers/EPSON and /Library/Caches/Epson folders, re-download the update, then re-add the printer.
I would try the first one first since it's the easiest and you already have the update installed. If that doesn't work, the second should.
Hope this helps. -
Is there a problem with the OS 5.1 update for first generation iPads?
Double clicking my home button sends my first generation iPad into a black loading screen. The four finger swipe does the same thing. I haven't found a way to access the open programs without this happening.
zphelj,
it reads as though you have a corrupted Mavericks installation at the moment. You can try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Are you able to run the 10.9.3 update now? -
Am I the only one with a problem with iMovie since the Mavericks update for Mac???
My iMovie keeps freezing, causing my whole computer to freeze and all I can do is shut it down and then the whole project is gone when I open the computer again. It will say that I have 1 project or 2 projects or whatever but no projects show up? And if I create a new movie with the same name as the previous ones, it will say that the project already exists? This is the third time within 30 minutes I have to start all over with a project cause it just keeps freezing and I have to shut the whole thing down by pressing down the on/off button, cause its the only thing that does not freeze. It's frustrating, please help, anyone?
I have no issues with suspend-resume cycle with networkmanager.

Problems with applications: GPS Info QT - IM for N...
Problems with GPS Info QT: new update v1.25 (cancelled by Nokia recently) has a gap with the coordinates in longitude because the error is 1 degree 56 minutes more or less (big problem). But it is an excellent applications: when can we obtain it again?
Problems with IM for Nokia: it has been impossible to install the updade of this application. I have installed it several times and uninstall again, but I always see the word "error".
What happens with the Ovi Maps? before I could see the satellite maps in old version (like a google earth) but when Nokia updated to version 00.02.43.117 I cannot see it. (Maybe it had errors with the Nokia Maps.
Solved!

Hi, I have a problem with getting my apple Id working for me. It's been 2 months since it happened and Apple failed to act. I can tell my story proerly, but am not sure, you guys can help, so I just copy my message to them today, I am trying to get it across all the places around to pay their attention. This is a desperate move, so if you are not the right people to help me to get my message accross, may be you can advise where can I go.
Thank you, and sorry for the language.

I am sorry to say that, but your security makes my life miserable – it’s been 2 months since my Apple ID account got stuck, and since then I cannot update 37 applications (to date), i.e. most of my applications. Half of them I bought. I also paid for iCloud, and it is not working. I paid money and I am stuck with old applications and no iCloud. Your security *****. Your service ***** too. It took your service 1 month to finally understand why this happened to me, and it took me tens of emails to you and 3 hours of telephone conversation to find out the reason for my problem. And the problem is still not fixed. NOT FIXED. You just leave your customer – the one who paid you money and spent so much time with you trying to help you help me – and nothing. You tell me: “Vitas, Stick your stinky iphone in your *** and enjoy life, we do not care!” *************.
It is ******* outrageous, and you should know that, guys. Get into the ******* database and correct the bug. Get someone in the partners-telephone carriers company (it is Orange as carreer and Cellcom as seller of the phone) authorized to Identify me in personal encounter in one of the branches in Israel (where I live) and make sure it is really me, and get the ******* system accept my password and let me use my phone.
Otherwise **** off. None of my friends will get my advise to buy an iphone or any of apple products. And I think you should be very attentive to cases like this, guys. Do your work for the money we pay, or disappear. There are many others eager to take your place, and if the problem is not fixed I will eventually go to the others. My patience is lost, and as soon as I can afford another phone I will change it. AND I WILL TRY TO GIVE BAAAAAD PUBLICITY TO APPLE – I am threatening here, so ACT NOW.
Vitas DijokasWell, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you -
i have a big problem why is it i cant update my ipod touch 2g into ios 4! im using the latest version of itunes and everytime i click "update" it stucks on the "contacting server" please help i want to update it now

iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server -
i have an activation problem with my iphone 3gs. i updated the software to io6 using itunes but now the phone will not complete activation because it keeps saydin the activation server is not available and to re try later. ive been trying for 6 hours but it still wont activate. if i try using itunes then it sayd no sim inserted when there is one inserted, what can i do?
You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money.. -
what do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?
Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
“SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
“Hi all,
I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
Can anyone help? Please?!
Thank you!!!
P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution. -

I was downloading the software update for ipod touch 2gen and after it was done downloading it showed that there was an error with my ipod and when i saw it was on the lockscreen loading. its been like this for 4 hours already
What did the error message say?
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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Is anyone having problems with the stock widget not updating?
Is anyone having problems with the stock widget not updating?
Widgets unfortunately have gone by the wayside since Apple introduced the App Store a couple years ago. No widget has received any official recognition in the Apple listing of Widgets since that time. So it is entirely possible the widget has gotten redirected. There are many other Apps for stocks. I personally like the Nasdaq Quote website since it knows mutual funds and other markets as well.

Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?
Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?? I'm hard of hearing and before updating to IOS7 I could hear my alarm and ringer just fine. Volume is turned up all the way and I've chosen the loudest sounds I could and still having a difficult time hearing.
Annie Hall is available on DVD only.
It is not available for streaming and I believe movies available for streaming are the only movies available with the Netflix app on an iOS device.
