Sad smiley on screen :( what do i do?

My Ipod is showing the 'sad smiley' and won't work anymore. I've tried all the methods that have been suggested by apple to fix it, but none of them have worked, so i have decided to send it away. I've had this problem before, within the warranty, and sent it away to get repaired. However, the new Ipod that was sent to me is now not working, and out of the original warranty... Do you get a new warranty with the replaced Ipod, or do you have to pay to send it away and get repaired? If so, how much will it cost? (In Australian dollars please)

Hi Duckanddrake3,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are talking about being locked out of your iPad (device disabled due to a passcode issue), you may find the following article helpful:
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If, instead, you are seeing an icon screen instructing you to connect your device to iTunes, then these articles may be of more use:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Regards,
- Brenden

Bridge from CS3 won't open and just sits on the task bar. If I hover over it, I can see a small view of the last screen I was working on. It won't open up full screen, what should I do. I've closed it and restarted my computer numerous times with no luck.

Check System Preferences > Energy Saver
Select: Put hard disks to sleep when possible
Then click: Restore Defaults

Hello crimsonflare,
Try this first:

If that does not work, use this:

and try to restore you ipod.
Hope this helps.

If not successful try the remaining items of
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hopefully you have a backup, but...
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

My iPad has a blue screen What's wrong with it

My iPad has a blues screen what's wrong ?

Hold the home and power button down until it restarts. If it continues, restore it. If it continues and only happens in one app, contact the developer or update the app if it has any updates. If it happens with not just one app, reserve an appointment at your local Apple Store and have it replaced. http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation. A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number. I suggest you turn iMessage off. In settings/phone turn on dial assist. Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage. Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Have you found your question yet?
Well as you can tell this isn't very active especially when your asking a question in a cross platform trouble shooting forum.
You don't say what computer you have so no one can even guess, you should put the model/year of the computer your on and the Mac OS version your using into your profile so we can help you better. (Example, 2010 MacPro, OS10.6 and Windows 7.)
Try here and pick your computer to get more help. Click on the Communities link and then the Discussions link and you should find a post that has already asked your question or you can search and you should find a bunch also.
From what I understand your Mac needs to support dual monitors and you need to have 2 video ports available and just get an adapter if needed for the connection between the computer and the monitor.
