Serious ipod issues!

Here are a list of current problems that my ipod video has:
1. iPod does not turn on or off but is able to reset. The iPod only turns on when it is plugged into a usb port. It does not turn off after it is unplugged.
2. It displays a white screen w/o an apple logo.
3. USB on windows does not recognize the drive as an iPod but displays it as a USB Mass Storage Drive.
4. Right clicking the Removable Drive (iPOD or USB Mass Storage Drive) it does not show right click options but it freezes not the computer but the window.
5. iPod cannot be initialized by ipod updater nor can be restored. the button isnt able to be clicked on.
6. itunes does not open when ipod is connected.
7. i have tried the Five R's many times it does not install the ipod driver because it does not display ipod name on the usb drive.
PLEASE HELP AND GIVE SOME FEED BACKS! THANK YOU

Well the fact that it can be reset is a good sign Hopefully you will also be able to take that a step further and get it into disk mode. To place the ipod into disk mode you can follow the steps in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Once it is in disk mode, open the updater and connect ipod when prompted to do so. If the options to restore or update still remain greyed out, it may be time for service.

HT201406 iPod Touch has serious audio issues

iPod Touch has serious audio issues. Audio turns 'scratchy' or will not play at all. Have tried hard shut down and system restore with no results. Help.please?

I actually just had a call with an apple IT person - he had me go to "settings" on my touch, and reset, then "reset all settings".
my volume bar came back and it is now working with all my speakers, in the car, headphones, etc.
hope this helps.

SERIOUS lag issues with Intel iMac

Hello everyone,
I'm pretty frustrated right now. I've been having this serious lag issue with my new iMac for the past few days. I think it may have started after I ran the last security update.
What happens:
When switching between apps, the system will hang for 1-3 seconds between doing anything. This includes typing, mouse requests, etc. It's VERY frustrating. I have activity monitor open currently, and I am seeing both Safari and SystemUIServer hogging up the CPU resources like CRAZY. I've even seen Safari recently give a CPU usage of 120%, right before I loaded this webpage. tis isn't just centralized to Safari too.... I have the following apps running:
Adium 0.89.1
FoireFox 1.5.0.8
Safari
Activity Monitor
My Memory stats currently are:
175MB Wired
708MB Active
618MB Inactive
1.47GB Used
There should be no reason I'm getting these lags with just two web browsers and a chat client open.
Has anyone else expierenced the lags?? Any suggestions? I'm almost ready to reinstall OS X and not run the last security update. Thanks

Hello Matthew
Are you running any maintenance scripts on a regular basis?
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/maintscripts.html
I would manually run this script from The X Lab, and my load times would improve greatly. The problem was, I would forget to run them untill I noticed web pages loading slow or iTunes and iPhoto taking for ever. It wasn't untill someone here in discussions suggested Anacron that I saw the light. WOW what a difference Anacron has been making in my overall system speed. My iMac has not been shutdown for 11days 5hrs 34mins (sleep or use only) and opening new App's, switching App's and web pages load as fast or faster than after a fresh start up. If your system is operating properly and you are having only what seems to be a slow or sluggish issue Anacron will make a difference.

Serious resolution issues with After Effects CC (2014) on Windows 8.1 Pro on Dell Precision M3800 laptop??

My new company installed Adobe Creative Cloud (There was some annoying Proxy issues at first, because of the seriously tight I.T policies) but we are having some serious resolution issues with After Effects CC 2014 (also have this resolution problem with Adobe Premiere, Media Encoder, Muse) on Windows 8.1 Pro on a Dell Precision M3800 laptop with icons and interface looking too small and hard to see, is there a fix, an update or a work around, can anyone help?
Any help will be appreciated!
k.regards
Ramon

Hi Todd is there a time-frame for this fix, there is a lot of pressure on me, because I convinced my company to get the Creative Cloud and quite a lot of the CC software is not compatible with the latest Windows 8.1 OS.
Is there at least a work around, until this big fix comes along?
k.regards

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.

Seriously, this issue is really annoying. why wont my songs download? it wont stop saying there is an error. this needs to be fixed. refund or apple needs to put these songs in my itunes manually if that can be done.

Serious UI issues in SQL Developer 4.0 for Mac

I've encountered some serious UI issues in SQL Developer 4.0 for Mac (4.0.0.13) that impact it up to the point where it becomes unusable.
If the database and tables are expanded in the "Connections" view, sometimes a node in the tree seems to become sticky. Whenever you scroll the up or down, it will immediately scroll back to make the old selection visible again. If you want to work with an item that's outside the current view (e.g. to collapse the "Tables" node), you can no longer use it. SQL Developer needs to be restarted.
If the context menu is opened (ctrl click), it appears in the wrong place. It's too far to the right and bottom. If you then move the mouse pointer towards the menu, a rectangle appears and follows the mouse pointer as if you had initiated a drag and drop operation.
If the "Data" tab of a table is selected and if a cell is clicked to edit the cell value, the text cursor is drawn in the wrong position. It can be off by more than one character and it is often drawn in the middle of a character instead of between two characters. It's hardly possible to edit the cell value as you cannot tell for sure where insertions and deletions will happen. You basically need to copy the value into a separate editor, edit it there and copy it back.
The scrolling in the "Data" tab of a table is a pain. For no obvious reason, it first scrolls downwards a few rows and then jumps to the top (at least using a Magic Mouse). If all rows have been loaded, this problem seems to disappear. But generally, the scrolling distance is far too short. With a long finger swipe, one would expect to scroll the contents by several pages. However, it only scrolls about half a page. For shorter swipes, it's similar. It sometimes only scrolls by a few pixels.
Am I the only one to experience these severe problems? Or is the Mac version not as mature as the Windows version yet?

In terms of diagnosis, perhaps not -- probably very time-consuming to debug. I did find some unpublished bugs against dual monitor use ...
Bug 13727841 - FORUM: 64BIT WIN7 SOME DIALOGS SHOW ON DISPLAY 1 WHEN SQLDEV ON DISPLAY 2
Bug 18504928 - NEW CONSTRAINT UI MENU IN TABLE DIALOG AT WRONG LOCATION ON DUAL MONITOR
The first turned out to be an issue in the 64-bit Java AWT libraries, not the 32-bit libraries, and specifically for Windows 7 as opposed to, say XP, but this was all quite a bit in the past and was fixed for 4.0. The second one (on 64-bit Linux), however, just came in yesterday, so you can wait to see if a fix for that also covers your situation or, if you are able, pursue it directly with Oracle Support.

***Serious iPod Problems***

My brother is havign some serious iPod problems. A while ago the battery died after having it for about 2 years. He just had the battery replaced, it will atleast bootup now, but it wont get passed the Apple logo. I can get it to boot into Disk Mode, then reset it, but it still wont get passed the Apple logo. Does anyone have any idea what's happened to it?
Thanks in advance!
Matt

Hi Jeff, thanks for the response, i have been able to do that a bunch of times today, i've even opened up the Disk utility and erased and then done it, no such luck, it just wont get passed the apple screen

I do get the same problem. It believe it started after I switched from HDD to SSD some month's ago. My machine is very fast now so I do not have performance problems (only a very slow power on boot).
The description above is exactly the same as I have.
Does somebody has the same problems?

For All Serious Burning Issues!!

If you are having serious burning issues and error messages, and after you have freed up atleast 5 gb of HD space on your STARTUP drive (Startup is the drive that your OS is running on) then go to:
http://superdrive.cynikal.net/
and download the appropriate Superdrive firmware for your computer. i have used this site several times. Make sure you follow the directions. This is a major change to the software that runs inside of your superdrive, but it usually does the trick for me when I have issues. If you have previously updated your firmware, and are now having issues, go back to the original firmware and see if that works, (it usually does for me). I have updated several times, and never had any issues. My superdrive is atleast 2 and a half years old with heavy use.
Not sure if Apple approves of doing this, but they don't seem to ever be very helpful with error messages, so this is the best solution for me.

Not really. You only need enough space to cover the amount of data being burned to the disc, which in most cases is 4.7 gb. You will need more if you are burning larger dvd's and/or dual layer. For years, I have only kept roughly 5 gb available on my system and haven't had any problems.

Serious Performance issue in ADF?

Hi Everyone,
My Jdev version is 11.1.2.3.0.
I have developed one ADF application and deployed into web logic server.
I am accessing this page through url in one portal of client.
After clicking on the page link in portal it opens the page and the page has search page(test field, submitbutton and result table).
On clicking on submit button sometimes the result in the table comes in few seconds and sometimes it takes few minutes.
its a very serious performance issue.
What should i do to increase performance for my ADF page?
why it takes much time sometimes?
Please give suggestions.
Thanks.

Hi Kumar,
Try to ensure proper indexes are placed based on search criteria in base table which will definitely increase the performance. Be sure to check the explain plan to see the performance of query instead of just running it in toad. If you feel everything is good from back end, you can tune your view object, go to view object editor->tuning and set the page range size=25 or some smaller value and see if that increases the performance.
Refer below link for more guidelines:

Ipod or nike ipod issue

Hi all. I have a problem with my ipod and don't know if it's the ipod, the usb, the nike receiver, the nike sensor or what. I turned it on today to do my workout. As usual, the voice told me to walk around to activate the shoe sensor. But nothing activates, the ipod says, "No Sensor" and everything on the ipod screen is frozen. Can't even turn the ipod off. So I disconnected the nike receiver, tried to connect to my laptop with the USB and resynch it, but still everything is frozen. Any ideas - now it seems like an ipod issue - not just a nike sensor issue. Thanks much for any advice.

I have same problem. I complete 2 or 3 a day but the ipod only keeps info for the last workout. So when you download onto Nike+ you lose all but the latest workout. I can find no way of saving individual workouts on the ipod (3rd generation) at the end of each workout. Nothing on the Apple website on this.

20GB Clickwheel iPod Issues

So, I've had this lovely thing for a few years now and it has worked quite well. Today in the middle of a workout, it just stops. I tried resetting it, no go. All it does is bring the Apple logo up (like its starting) then it will go to either the iPod with the unhappy face or the folder icon and it says below: "www.apple.com/support/ipod"
I tried connecting it to its computer, no go. Power source, no go. It continues to stop in its starting up phase.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Andrew

If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
Intermediate Level
A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
For Window computer
Go to folder “My Computer”
Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
Now select “Format”
Eject your iPod and do a Reset
Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=501330&tstart=0
C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
Tips
a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2364921&#2364921
Advance Level
A. Diagnostic mode solution
If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
B. Format your iPod with a start disk
I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk
http://www.ipodresq.com/index.php
http://www.ifixit.com/
http://www.rapidrepair.com/shop/g4-ipod-parts.html
Just in case that you are at the following situation
Your iPod warranty is expired
You don’t want to pay any service charges
You are prepared to buy a new one
You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
Last Resort Level
1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)
http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/index.cfm?page=Video/directory.html
2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

Serious Volume Issues : HELP!

Good Morning,
We have had Fios for about 8 month and since we signed up have been having serious volume issues. When we turn on the tv and the fios (HD Box w/DVR) the volume will turn on and it will be in a mono tone with no bass just very bad sounding, other times we turn it on and there is no sound. To get "normal sound" we typically have to turn on and off tv a couple times to get to work. If we turn on tv and have "funny sound" we can flip to DVR and watch tv with perfectly fine sound. We can also turn on DVD player and watch tv with perfectly fine sound. This makes me think it's fios or the box?? We have had a refresh to our box and we just recieved a new box and it is still happpening!! My husband has switched the HDMI cables to the alternate port on our tv (I think that is what he said??) and nothing helps. Our tv is a Samsung LCD and it is maybe 2 1/2 years old at the most. We have never had any issues with this with Directv and can't figure it out. Does anyone have any advice?
Our second issue is on our other tv when we turn on the fios box and attempt to watch tv, Spanish music comes through the subwoofer of our sound sound. Again never an issue until Fios. My husband bought a RF (????) filter and no such luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks as we can not watch tv in our home without it being a huge pain in the butt!

seeing as how the issue is the same with 2 different HD-DVR's I would assume it is one of the many HDMI issues that occur with the motorolla boxes... try another means of cabling for audio... such as composite (red/white) or digital audio cable
as far as the other box is concerned, with the spanish audio..... that box/TV probably has the SAP turned on.... on the box, go to Menu > Settings > Language > Audio Language.... and switch to English preffered... if it is your TV, consult the owners manual for specific instructions on how to change the setting on the TV.

Serious permission issues

Trying to log in to PhElements 4; splash screen gets to "reading workspace modes" and get error "application quit unexpectedly". Adobe tech person said I probably had "serious permission issues."
Have reinstalled OSX 10.4, reinstalled PE4, and launched PE4 as root user, but still unable to launch from user accounts.
Is there anything else I can try before I have to wipe out the hard drive and start over again?

I've done this so many times already and it didn't work. However, your suggestion to repeat until no errors came up was helpful.
Somewhere else in Apple discussions, I found an answer that suggested deleting plist files, so this time I deleted Adobe PE3, PE4 upgrade, Bridge; then found .com.adobe.bridge.plist and com.Adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist and deleted both of those files. Then I reinstalled PE3 and PE4 upgrade and ran disk utility/repair permissions again. I can now launch the programs from a new user acct, which hadn't worked prior to today's repeated repair disk permissions run.
Still can't launch from my regular user acct, but since it now works in new user acct, I'll move everything to it and archive the old user acct.
