Songs/albums being replaced with new content
Hi,
I got a 120gb iPod Classic for Christmas and am just getting used to using it. The problem I have at the moment is that when I sync new songs/albums to the ipod, they are replacing what was already on it!! For instance, I had 2 albums by the one artist already on the ipod, and when I synced a 3rd album it simply replaced the 2 earlier albums! I have looked up the problem in the support manual but can't seem to get any info on it.
Any help would be great.
Well, the first question to ask is are you deleting the music from your iTunes library after syncing it to the iPod? You cannot do this and "sync" the iPod with new music without deleting the old.
If you want to delete songs from your iTunes/computer hard drive after transferring them to the iPod, and for this you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.

My iphone 4s was having some glitches so i am replacing it. But i really love my layout and how i have my apps organized, i was wondering if i back this all up to itunes if it will sync the exact same back to my new 4s. i get very OCD about my apps and it takes me a long time to get my iphone to look "like home" so this is very important. please get back to me thanks.
Restoring from the latest backup will bring back all your settings again. You might have to fill in certain passwords, for example for mail.
Details about the content of a backup can be found here:

My iPhone 5 has broken and is being replaced with a new iPhone tomorrow. However, My carrier (orange) will b picking up my broken iPhone and I am unsure how to secure the content and icloud data on the broken phone. Is there a way to disable the data held on it and ensure that if it is fixed, nobody can use/see my data and access my account?
Hi Gazpan,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend using the steps in this article to back up your iPhone if possible:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

You may also find this advice helpful for your situation:
What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

If you no longer have your iOS device
If you're using iCloud and Find My iPhone on the device, you can erase the device remotely and remove it from your account by signing in to icloud.com/find, selecting the device, and clicking Erase. When the device has been erased, click Remove from Account.
If you're unable to complete either of the above steps, you should change your Apple ID password. Changing your password won't remove any personal information that is cached on the device, but it will make sure that the new owner can't delete your information from iCloud.

Library files files are replaced with new files
Almost everyday, when i start iTunes my library files are replaced with new files & then i need to replce the new ones with my backup set
There are a couple of recommended methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer. Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one.
Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. Have a look at this article and see what you think and go for whichever you feel suits your needs best: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
Choosing the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" (called Sync Music - Selected playlists in iTunes 7) allows you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod ( for example, around 3700MB for a 4GB or 1800MB for a 2GB Mini or Nano). You can read more about playlists at these links:

Punctuation sometimes being replaced with "?" when published
Hello,
Every once in a while, when a page has been updated, most of the punctuation is being replaced with question marks (?).
I've since gone in a second time and changed the question marks to the proper punctuation and the page published properly.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

I noticed on both of the pages, your charset is defined as:

Please try changing it to UTF-8 and see if this resolves the problem:

Zombie artwork in iTunes 11 - cant replace with new
I made up an album for a party and gave it a random piece of artwork.
Now when I have disassembled the album iTunes insists on using that random artwork even though I have gone through the Get Info/Artwork process and deleted the old and replaced with new. I even deleted the tracks completely (both locally and cloud), rebooted iTunes and then replaced the tracks with different source material. Loe and behold next day the old art work is back and the new disappeared. Obviously lurking somewhere is the old artwork and it knows which tracks it used to "own" and iTunes "helpfully" corrects my attempts to change and puts the old back.
Any suggestions?The exact same thing happened to me!
installed 11.1 on my 10.6 Intel MacBook Pro (2006). No issues. Then suddenly I couldn't keep the program open.
After reading your description I was reminded that this started after I went through the settings & turned on the podcast sync. Now it keeps crashing & I can't keep it open long enough to check that option!
I've restarted, ran DiskWarrior on my computer & my external drive that holds the iTunes library. It was open for a while so I could update apps, but the second I opened the podcast tab... CRASH & can't keep it open longer than 30 seconds. Guess I'm gonna have to trash preferences or something 'cause this is getting crazy. -
What is the recalled iPod nano being replaced with
What is the recalled iPod nano being replaced with
I sent my 1st generation nano back on Monday and got my replacement today (Thursday). Apple is FAST! Kudos for great customer service. However, I also got the 6th gen. silver 8gb nano like deggie said although I didn't know that it was refurbished and I am very disappointed. This is the super-tiny nano that I'm guessing no one liked because they redesigned it after 1 generation. If they were sending refurbished nanos, I would have much preferred any generation but the 3rd or 6th generation or at least the option of choosing from what was available. All of the others look very similar to the 1st generation which I really liked. That said, the 6th gen. does have more memory than my original and has some additional features but I think I would have rather kept my old one. I said I think because I haven't used the "new" one and I might get used to it. Something to consider if you are happy with your 1st generation nano.

I had my iphone 4 stolen, replaced with new one same day and downloaded info saved to the cloud. The next day all that info disappeared and have not been able to get any of the old info back. Is there a way to get this info.
I think you will have to do a complete restore--you will lose any info added since last backup. Connect phone to computer, select it in souce list. Next, click on Summary tab, click Restore. In the next dialog box, click Restore--your phone will be erased and the latest software will be installed. Click agree to terms and phone will restart. Then you will see the phone setup screen--click on Restore from Backup and select the most recent backup. Obviously, this will only work if you have a backup on the computer. If not, check Set up as New Phone, click continue, then wait for the process to finish.

How do I remove one failing hard drive from raid set and replace with new one
Last Friday apparently one of my raid drives started failing.
As I mentioned on this forum I started getting continous beeping.
I was finally able to get the raid working at a degraded level. I ordered a replacement hard drive which is arriving today.
(In the meantime I made twice daily backups of my work.....)
Below was the message I got from the browser based raid software:
Blahblah 09 1000.2GB RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
Blahblah 10 1000.2GB Free SamSung HD103SJ
Blahblah 11 1000.2GB RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
Blahblah 12 1000.2GB RaidSet Member SamSung HD103SJ
(See this earlier thread if you wish!)
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/727867?tstart=0
At one point when I did the checked the browser interface I saw the message Failed and Degraded
As I said, I was able to work over the weekend on the degraded system.
This morning I got the beeping again and did the rescue and now I am running a "full raid" without the notice that one raid was "Free".
In any case, the new hard drive is arriving today.
What steps should I take to incorporate the new drive into the raid system.
I have one OS drive
and 4 tb raid drives. One needs to be replaced with the new one that I am getting today.
Thanks
RowbyHarm,
Regarding your comment:
Re: How do I remove one failing hard drive from raid set and replace with new one
Please tell me how to read the serial number from an individual drive rather easily, without un-installing them:
If you select the proper drive to change out, you only need to remove one drive and look at its serial number...
Step 1: Identify bad drive serial number using Areca's tools
Step 2: Turn off the computer
Step 3: Remove what you think is the bad drive based on following your numbered cable method, marked hot-swap bays, whatever
Step 4: Verify that the serial number matches the "bad drive" serial number from step 1; if it does great, proceed; if it does not match, go back to step 3
Step 5: Change out the CORRECT drive - that's the bottom line for this whole procedure

Can an i-frame resize the page height and itself with new content?
I built a website in Adobe Muse and embedded a blog within an i-frame on the portfolio page of the site here...
http://dannyhardakervideo.co.uk
This approach was taken because the client needed the ability to keep adding videos to the portfolio section of the site themselves indefinitely and
i was short on ideas to implement that functionality with Muse. I've now exported the code as HTML to Dreamweaver to see what I can achieve there.
Using Dreamweaver, Is it possible for the page height and i-frame height to resize with new content as more videos are added to it? Is there some script I can add to the page?
Is there a better solution?
PLEASE HELP.Ordinarily, Iframe re-size scripts will only work when the parent page (with iframe) and the external page (blog) both reside on the same domain. However, someone came up with a cross domain solution which requires you to put jQuery scripts on both sites. NOTE: I've never tested this.
https://github.com/davidjbradshaw/iframe-resizer
IMO, a cleaner solution is to use scripts to parse the blog's RSS feed into the main site. You can use PHP code from FeedForAll or jQuery's jFeed plugin.
http://alt-web.blogspot.com/2011/06/adding-blogger-rss-feed-to-html-page.html
https://github.com/jfhovinne/jFeed
The main advantage in using a script to parse feeds is you control the appearance -- to match your main site & how many posts are displayed on the page.
