Someone help! I have no idea what I am doing!
I have a 80gb iPod that we just bought from a friend. Somehow I managed to delete all the songs he had on there which was like 2,000. I'm not really worried about that. Problem is..how do I get music on my iPod from my computer? I've also tried adding music to the Library in iTunes and it has stored to the recently added list. SO in other words I just dont know what the heck to do. Now I have a Pod with nothing on it. Any advice? Thanks!
Awesome, we've made progress!
Okay, so the problem seems to be in that iTunes can't find your songs (like you said).
So let's try this:
Open up the iTunes preferences, Edit>Preferences for a PC. Click the advanced tab. Now make sure the Keep iTunes Music Folder Organized box is checked, as well as Copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library checkbox.
Click OK.
If these checkboxes weren't already checked, then iTunes will take some time to copy your library.
If you already had the checkboxes checked, and nothing happens when you click OK, click Advanced, then Consolidate Library. This will copy your library again.
If no error messages pop up during the copy, you're set. Right click the iPod (Bigdogs iPod, as yours has been named), and left click Sync.
If error messages pop up during the copying library process, complaining about not being able to find files, it means you've actually somehow moved or deleted the songs that you added to iTunes. Delete the references to the songs in question from iTunes, re-add them again and then sync the ipod over again.
Good luck and keep us up to date on your progress!
Skip.

Help, i am trying to print my JPEG file that i created in photoshop at a photo lab but it is coming out like an X-ray. I have printed these files before so i have no idea what i am doing wrong.
Could it be something i have done in my settings?
or when i am saving the file to JPEG?Basically you're approaching this the wrong way around. What you need is the extreme sections to be quieter, not louder. The problem with moving the lower end of the audio is that you'll move the noise floor too, and get what's generally referred to as a 'pumping' effect. So what you do is to use a compressor to tame the peaks, and leave the lower level sound alone. When you've done that, you amplify (or normalize to a level you can determine) the whole signal. So the noise floor will be higher, but constant and not pumping. 'Match Volume' is a completely different tool for setting the overall levels of different tracks so that they sound approximately the same - it doesn't even begin to do what you want.
If it's music you are treating, then I'd almost certainly use the multiband compressor, because you get less artefacts with this. You need to experiment with the threshold levels, and almost certainly not use a massive compression ratio - 3:1 or 4:1 should be sufficient (although it's hard to tell without actually hearing the audio). You can tell what it's doing at any given point because the downward meter indicates how hard it's working. In theory you can apply make-up gain with it as well, but personally I leave that until everything's treated and use the 'Normalize' tool to set an absolute max level. -

Help!! First of all I am a senior and have no idea what I am doing. Turned on the Apple tv and it said downloading the lastest -cannot remember the rest.
There was a Apple symbol and a dowmload space under it. Nothing is happening. It has been about 25 minutes. What do I do??It probably did not turn itself off. It most likely went into "sleep".
Did you try to restart the Apple TV? That is what solved the problem for me.
Go to the main AppleTV menu - you might have to press the Menu button a couple of times to get there - select Settings, then Select General, scroll down to Restart and select that.
As long as you don't have a "Do not unplug" message on your screen, unplugging the power cable, waiting a minute, then plugging it back in should accomplish the same thing. I always prefer using the menu method over unplugging.
If that doesn't work, I fear you might have to contact Apple. They will likely tell you to restore your AppleTV to factory settings. That will be a pain in the neck since they will need to walk you through it. They might do that for you at an Apple store. I'm a senior citizen too, and it's easy for me to look helpless - even though I've worked in computers and networking for a very long time.
Sorry I can't offer any better advice. -

my laptop will not open iTunes, as it just says 'This version of iTunes has not been correctly localised for this language. Please run the English version'. I have not synconised my iPhone 5S or iPad 2 with iTunes for well over a year. I noticed the music which had previously been put into iTunes has dissappeared from my phone and iPad. I also want to remove some movies from my iPad and iPhone and there is no way I can do this without being able to manually sync with the Laptop which is running windows 7. Has anyone else come across this and please can you help? I am no expert in fact I know very little about the Laptop, it is my Husbands baby but he doesn't understand anything to do with Apple including iTunes. I will need any advise explained step by step please.
Hi Shelady,
Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version of iTunes from the first link below. If that doesn't do it, the suggestions in the second article should resolve the installation issue.

I have no idea what I am doing....please help....nothing works
Hows that for a subject???
I am trying to use the SAP NetWeaver 7.02 trial. Never seen SAP before. I have completed the install, but I cannot login. I can open the SAP MMC, the database manager, sql studio. But I when I open SAP Logon 720, I don't know any valid users I can use. I have tried DDIC and SAP. In fact I tried DDIC so many times, its locked. Took a long time, but I finally figured out how to go into the database and delete the SAP user for client 001. But SAP* still does not work with password PASS or pass.
Is there something obvious I have missed??? I have seen many posts that talk about running some transaction, but I am thinking that needs to be done after I logon. What do I do???Well I could not find an exact match to the path you mentioned.
I went to \usr\sap\nsp\dvebmgs00 but there is no profile directory. I also tried \usr\sap\nsp\sys\profile and did find a nsp_dvebmgs00_sap file, but there isn't any login/no_automatic_user_sapstar.
I went ahead and added a line for it and expected it to not work. But I just tried it and I am logged in. Thanks so much for solving this! -

An odd program... or do I have no idea what I'm doing here?
I've been trying to take out some room noise from an hour and a half long talk given by a man at my university. I understand how the de-noiser works, but when I try to use it Soundtrack Pro locks up on me and crashes. I also thought to try the "Phase Analysis", but after two and a half hours I came to think it had locked up as well, although honestly "Force Quit" had not said it was not responding. However that's longer than a real time analysis would have been. These are the only things I've tried, and neither have worked. Is an hour and a half too long for SP to view, that is, should I break it into smaller pieces somehow? Is SP only good for adding smaller bits of audio to a previously assembled movie? Or am I doing something very wrong here? The format is, incidentally, a .mov that I had edited in Avid Xpress and exported with the Sorensen Squeeze attached to that, uncompressed, and is 20.24 GB in size. Thanks for your help, L
I wish I could say things were going better- by losing the video, I am able to import the audio into SP. It will then check for phase, hum, etc... but then it will only reluctantly allow me to put an EQ or noise reducer on it. If I play the audio to hear what I've done, when I stop it, the program begins to stutter. This is probably the fault of my soundcard, which is an M-Audiophile 192, not the best. Also I tried just putting the whole audio track in, not breaking it up into 10 minute bits. It's only 1.55 GB, I was hoping that could be OK, but I guess it's still too much for the program. It's not that important, the only one who cares about the quality of the sound is myself, and only just to learn SP. I'm confused about how to export the changes I have made, however. I ended up working with the audio in Logic, got it OK, and then it didn't link up to the video in Avid, like I might have guesses. These are things I'll just have to learn though- again, thanks for your help. If you have any advice I'd sure love it, either way, I'm done for now... I'll mark this as closed tomorrow after I see if you have any more. Thanks, L Mollard

I am taking a class and the instructors gave us a flashdrive with the power point presentations for the whole class on it. I copied it to my documents but now I want to put it on my ipad and I don't know how. I added the app Keynote but I don't know what else to do.
You won't be able to open it on your computer, ibooks can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. How were you trying to get it to your phone, syncing it by selecting it on the iPhone's Books tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, or by dragging-and-dropping it from the Books part of your iTunes library over and onto the iPhone 'device' ? Another option is to try re-downloading it directly in the iBooks app on your iPhone via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in it (re-downloading).

Tell me how to download a newer version of itunes on my old mac so i can it will sync to my iphone please.
Click here, buy and install the DVD, and then run Software Update twice. If you're actually using Mac OS X Server, you'll need to phone the online Apple Store instead of using the link I posted.

Need Help with FMS 3.5 - No Idea What I'm Doing!
Hi guys,
I am dying for some guidance here. I've been tasked with setting up a media server so that we can stream video. Problem is, I have no idea what I'm doing here and am confused by the documentation. Can somebody please walk me through how I would set up this server so that I can stream a video? The only thing I've been able to do so far is locate the "sample video player" and type in the address http://localhost/vod/test.flv in the STREAM URL: box. This works, but the video/sound is very choppy. Also, how does this relate to the Administration Console?
Thank you so much for your expertise! I truly appreciate it.Start with http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/,

Thank you! That's definitely helpful to start with, but I'm still nervous... I realize that this is a hefty upgrade that I'm attempting. What is going to be affected? I'm not terribly concerned about documents, but will I have to re-install programs and such?
I appreciate your help, thank you.

Best Buy shouldn't be allowed steelbooks, as you guys haven't the foggiest idea what you are doing.
I swear everytime I try and go to get a steelbook from Best Buy it makes me hate Best Buy ever so much and never ever ever want to shop there because of how bad you handle this and have no idea what you are doing.
Wanted to preorder Ghost Rider and get the free steelbook but guess what they never even got them in and I checked everyday for a week after being told they were in transit on a Monday and by Wednesday was told they had been deleted by the system. Well one good thing came out of that now I don't even have to bother buying the movie at your store.
Wanted to get the Warner Brothers line of steelbooks that you just came out but guess what just like Ghost Riders none have showed up and everytime I ask I get well 12 our on order for that title and that title and that title.
OH BUT THEY DID SET UP THE DISPLAY THAT SAYS COLLECTIBLE STEELBOOK AND JUST GRABBED AMRAY VERSIONS OFF THE SHELF BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO FRAKING CLUE WHAT THEY ARE DOING, THIS DISPLAY MAKES YOUR STORE LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF COMPLETE MORONS AND CLUELESS AND THEY WONDER WHY BEST BUY IS CLOSING STORES ITS BECAUSE THEY ARE RAN BY IDIOTS WHO COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS.Aren't those Steelbooks officially out till like June 6th or something? And I worked in retail before. This may sound dumb, but sometimes they still want you to set up displays even before the items are received. You can't be mad cause they follow direction. They might of been told to fill in the space with items to look full. Honestly you're being upset for no good reason. Yeah, it sucks that you aren't seeing the items you want in stores. These are promo items so not every store will get it. Unless it's advertised in the ad, then you should be upset. If no store has any, order them online. From what I've seen, these extras are usually offered online too.sirdizzy wrote:
Really Best Buy can't take any culibility or credit for what goes on in their stores because they outsource it to another company rather they just make themself look like babooms by having something clearly labeled wrong and misleading on their floor.
Why put out a display that is clearly wrong and misleading, why when its pointed out to you by a customer does that same display remain on the floor (I took that picture yesterday not today and I informed an employee yesterday not today but it was still there today).
