Setting it up again

My iTunes takes a while for it to show it, but now my iPod is recognized by iTunes. It does not show up as "Vic's iPod" anymore like I had named it, it just says "IPOD." The update option is blacked out because I already did that, but there is an option to restore. I have tried this though, and it gives me the error 1428. So what should I do if my iPod is showing up under the "device" list but there is really nothing that I can do with it? By the way, the "Device" page only has the summary tab on it, whereas I believe there were maybe 4 or 5 other tabs up there at the top. Any help is appreciated here.

Hi Vic7790!
In this case, it seems that Windows is confusing your iPod with a network device, and you'll need to try assigning a different drive letter. Follow the steps here:
Log off of any other users on your computer.
1 - Don’t plug in your iPod yet.
2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on the left panel) -> Computer Management."
3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left panel area.
4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel windows opened, reset your iPod, and connect it.
5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a few moments when it gets recognized in this drive window), and click on "Change Drive letter and Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
Here's what it should look like:
Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like (further along in the alphabet).

I hope this helps you,

Yesterday I changed my email password on my home computer. Today, I can't get any new emails on my Samsung Galaxy 4; I deleted the email account entirely and tried to set it up again as a new account, using the new password, but it keeps giving me an error message that reads: Cannot safely connect to server. The new password is working on my home computer. I even tried the old password; it just gave me the same error message.

I'm sorry you're having issues with your e-mail account on your phone Rusty1112. Let's figure out what's going on. First, please try deleting account/information again and then restart phone. When phone is back on, try adding e-mail account again, and be sure you're entering exactly as you set up, meaning its case-sensitive. If you're still getting same error, please let us know and let us know what e-mail account it is, Yahoo, AOL, MSN, etc.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again?

I recently had to completely restore my laptop, so I lost the music on my itunes. It's still on my iphone, but how can I keep the music I already have and continue to add more music from the newly set up itunes again? Is there actually a way to do this? I can't help but wonder what the stupid icloud is for if my music is still somewhere in the 'cloud' but it's zero help for restoring music when it's lost on a computer....any help even a site that get's around apple would be great!

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good, you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to your computer. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can also redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

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.

I have a PowerBook G4 17" and need Apple discs to set it up again. Mine lost during move. Screen seems damaged, has vertical lines. Can anyone help. I can call as I have unlimited calling on my iPhone 6 anywhere in North America.

king,
If your Powerbook's serial number (do not post it here) starts with "W8" then the vertical lines are mostly likely due to a defect in the display itself. W8 is a factory code and, during the iMac G5 and PowerBook G4 timespan, that factory shipped thousands of units with the same defect. It cannot be fixed via software.
As all PowerBooks are now classed as "obsolete," an Apple Store will not work on it. They will look at it ands tell you it has vertical lines and that they cannot fix it. This Apple article shows Apple devices they curently considered obsolete:
Vintage and obsolete products - Apple Support
It is possible that some Apple Authorized Service Providers (AASP) will still work on older computes but they cannot get neededparts from Apple. As this issue was so pervassive, it wil be hard for you or an AASP to find a used/pulled display that is not effected with the "W8 Curse."
Although I love the old PowerBooks, I would not even spent the money for disks, much less the US$150-400 it would cost to replace the display, even should one be available.
If you give us a rough idea of where you are in the world, we can suggest repair shops specializing in fixing older Mac notebooks, but be aware those resources may be rather scare outside North America.

I deleted my hotmail on iPhone Mail and now i can't set it up again

I had hotmail set up to my Mail and it was working fine except for one problem. I couldn't send mail! it kept saying the username or password was incorrect even if I kept checking it over.
So i searched the forums and some people said they deleted their account and set it up again and it worked okay.
so i deleted my account to set it up again. But then it said that I needed a paid account to set it up! The first time it worked fine and i have a free account!!
Did anyone else have this problem and how can i fix it?

Originally or from past history should i say you did need to have a paid account to do this, luckily you don't have to anymore. Microsoft has information on how to set up Windows Live/Hotmail on your iPhone with a free account check out the link for more information

Message reads Apple tv cannot sign in to Itunes until network time has been set; please try again later...help!

in setting up new apple tv, message says "apple tv cannot sign in to Itunes until network time has been set - please try again later.........is this an easy fix?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Also try restarting the router.
If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.

Regarding mac os x server 10.6 installation, getting an error" Please inspect your network setting and try again"

Hi,
we need your urgent help regarding mac os x server 10.6 installation, actually we are stuck in the installation at the point of Network settings. getting an error " Please inspect your network setting and try again" pls give us a solution of it , would be very thankful.
MTS

Well, there isn't much anyone can tell you without more information.
Clearly the installer is complaining about your proposed network configuration, but without seeing it, or knowing what you expect, it's almost impossible to advise.
I'd guess that it's some combination of the IP address/subnet mask and router address that's invalid, but without seeing them that's little more than a stab in the dark.

My mail application was working fine, I shut down and when I restarted it is asking me to set it up again. I dont want to loose any information on my mail and I had a lot of accounts on it. . what can I do?

I found all my files from my old account in the users folder but when I logged out there was no option to sign in on the old account, I'm guessing ill just have to start from scratch, which is fine as long as my old files aren't lost :) thanks for the help.
I'll explore more once I get my screen fixed and there might be a way to recover my old account :)

When I open my mail account I keep getting the message "Checking for Mail". I deleted the yahoo account and set it up again and I am still getting the same issue plus I am not seeing any of my mail or folders. Can anyone help?

This is how I fixed it on my new iPhone 5S. Using the standard yahoo setting on my phone.
You will have to access "managing your app passwords" on your account profile for yahoo. Generate password for your app. For example: "My iPhone 5S'
Go to your Iphone and set up your yahoo mail account on your phone the normal way and you have to use the generated password. instead of the yahoo account password.

Notification set in process again at defect recording

Hi all,
In customizing, my inspection type is defined as "one Q-notification by inspection lot". The linked notification type is A1.
I created an inspection lot. I created a notification of type B1 with QM01 link to this inspection lot (QMEL-PRUEFLOS). This B1 notification is already closed.
When I record an defect in QE51N for this inspection lot, a new A1 notification is created BUT the closed B1 notification is set in process again.
Is there a way to avoid this kind of behavior ? I just want to create a new A1 notification without reopening the closed one. Eventually just reopen existing A1 which are already closed but not other type of notifications.
Thanks in advance

Hello Sebastien,
"one Q-notification by inspection lot" applies to Inspection lot only irrespective of Notification type and it will set other notifications in-process if you record new defects.
In your case i guess both A1 and B1 are customized notification types. And in B1 notification you have incorporated "inspection lot" field by using some Exit.
When you create manual notification B1 using QM01, you enter Inspection lot number and it hits Table QMEL. Now when you record defects and create notification A1 system gets another Notification with the same inspection lot number and puts it In-Process.
Now if you consider standard notification types F2, Q2; When you go for QM01, you can not maintain Inspection lot number in Q2 notification, but for F2 (Automatically) system copies inspection lot number into notification. And as it does not get any other entry in QMEL there is no effect on Q2 notification created earlier.
Experiment on user Exit QQMA0030 Check validity of status change; and see if you can restrict putting notification in-process if Notification type is Not Same.
Amol.
