QuickTime grabbed all my .WAVs by the throat and won't let go!
This is a Quicktime problem. I fully updated Quicktime on my PC,
Febr. 3d, six weeks ago. I have Windows Vista HP SP-2. I don't
have or use iTunes, so it's not relevant here. I've used NCH music
software for all my music work for 3 years, and am happy with it.
Since that QT update, I've only used my NCH "Switch" program
twice for converting any .flacs to .wavs, which is 95% of the
music file conversion I ever do. The first time about a month ago,
I noticed that the .wav files were suddenly being rendered as QT
.wavs instead of Windows .wavs. I didn't bother to try to listen to
(test) any of them prior to burning to a CD-R, but this type of
thing happened to me a couple yrs. ago w/ a different music file
manager/company, so I should have. QuickTime has taken all the
.wav files everywhere on my computer, no matter how old, and
converted them over to QT .wavs. I wouldn't care, except that
when I try to open and listen to one, it won't play. Instead I get
the following pop-up window, which twice displays the full
pathway-location of the .wav file-- once in top window frame,
and just below that in the top of the inner field. There's a big red
button-like thing in upper-left with a white X in it. The message
states, "The application has failed to start because it's side-by-
side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event
log for more detail". I haven't been able to locate an event log
for Switch, and even if I could, I have no idea what a 'side-by-side
configuration' is, much less how to correct it. The .wavs will
burn to a CD-R accurately with no problem, and I have no trouble
listening to the disc. But I cannot listen to them sitting on my PC,
which is a big problem. I teach music-related skills for a living
and manage music from my PC all the time. Please assist.
Thanks, D. Demarin
Let's first check your Windows default settings for association of your wavs.
You'll use the Default Programs control panel as per the following Microsoft document:
[Change which programs Windows uses by default|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Change-which-programs- Windows-uses-by-default]
Use the *Associate a file type or protocol with a program* option. Check to see if you've currently got .wavs associated with QuickTime. If you do, change the association to your preferred player. Do wavs play properly now?

So i puty my Ipod in to charge a few weeks back and then the next time I went to use it I found a bunch of songs missig so I plugged it back in and found Itunes still listed but when I click on them it says it can't find them. I brought up my purchases on Itunes and it says they are on my computer and downloaded, won't let me re-download. How do I fix it? I really don't want to have to buy them all again or something. And why is this whiole thing so slow?
Also consider using vlc as the player which can handle a wide range of video formats as well.

How do I redownload/delete them so I can put them back on my phone?
So your'e saying it lets you open the app from the app store? If so, that means it's on your phone somewhere take a better look at your homescreens. It will only let you open an app if it's been previously downloaded to the phone.

anyone can help with this i was wondering if apple care can fix the iphone 5 cause today wasnt my day wen i was on ferry back to the city a big wave hit the ferry and i got all wet and now the phone wont turn on or charge with no sound i wanna know how much im looking for it to be fixed
Could be new or refurbished, there's no way to tell...they all come in a plain white box. Doesn't really matter though, as all refurbished iPhones get new batteries & cases.
You get a 90 day warranty or the balance of your original warranty, whichever is greater. -

i want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized? also how can i update the software?
This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge! -
I’ve tried to update my i-Tunes version after the site suggested I should following my i-Pad Air being plugged into it for the first time. The update seemed successful but the program would not open at all despite switching off the PC and re-starting several times. I then tried wiping the original software from the computer and re-downloading from scratch. Each time I tried the download failed with a message saying “Service “Apple Mobile Device” failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services” At this stage, the only way forward was to “abort” the download. This I have done now four times and the same thing happens. When I did finally manage to get an i-Tunes shortcut on my desktop, the program wouldn’t open saying: “i-Tunes was not installed correctly. Please re-install i-Tunes. Error 7 (Windows error 193)” Any ideas to resolve this?

I'm trying to add my HP wireless printer as a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version. I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility.. Help!
Why would you need to ADD a new Client. Unless the APE sytem is completely different then any other Wireless router the printer should get an IP address from the router. That is IF the printer is setup to get an IP from the LAN DHCP server.
Now you may want to make that IP it does get a Staticly assign IP address so it never changes, which will screw up printing if it does change. But i don't know if you can do that with APE routers. -
My MacBook Pro turns on but not all the way, it gives me an icon of a grey folder with a question mark in the middle, and won't go further that that. Anyone knows why, or what's the problem?
If these do not resolve the issue or if you are not comfortable with proceeding through these steps then take your Mac to an Apple store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. An Apple store will perform these initial steps, diagnose the problem, and give an estimate for repairs (if needed). If the Mac is less than one year old or is covered by AppleCare any repairs would be free.

I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is/are unique. How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data at end of process) and then upgrade?
You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer. -
