Sony PRS650 stopped working

Wife's Macbook running Snow Leppard no problems running the Sony Reader eBook reader client with the PRS650 (PRS-650) eBook..
However once Lion was installed it stopped working.
Forced the Macbook to boot into 32bit kernel by holding the 3 and 2 keys down during boot fixed the issue and made the change perminant with;-
sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture i386

I am having the same problem with Lion and my Sony Reader. Unfortunately, I'm a novice with my Mac. So, if I just restart my computer and hold down the 3 and 2 keys throughout the whole thing, I can load a book onto my Sony Reader? Does that do anything bad for my computer? When I restart it again without holding those keys will it go back to normal? I'm nervous about messing something up that I won't be able to fix. Thanks!

  • HT1349 So everything on this page relates to Apple products. I am running a Sony laptop with Windows and as soon as I install iCloud desktop iTunes has stopped working. The only time I ever needed it. GREAT! Do you do this on purpose?

    So everything on this page relates to Apple products. I am running a Sony laptop with Windows and as soon as I install iCloud desktop iTunes has stopped working. The only time I ever needed it. GREAT! Do you do this on purpose?

    The latest version of iTunes tends to act up occassionaly. See this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and remove and reinstall iTunes. This will not affect your music library, apps or other content in iTunes. Make sure you follow the steps exactly.
    Also, just copying the ringtone will not get it into your phone. iPhone ringtones have an extension of m4r, and you have to first take the Media player file and covert it to an AAC version. From there you need to change the extension from m4a to m4r. If you cannot see file extensions in Windows Explorer, which is actually the default action, go into Organize>Folder and search options, then hit the View tab, and then remove the checkmark by hide file extensions from known file types. After you have created the m4a version and changed the file extension, you can double-click on it and it should show up in the Tones folder in iTunes. From there, sync the phone and it should show up in the list of ringtones.

  • Incoming Emails stopped working after Sony Upgrade

    Hi, yesterday I upgraded to the latest Sony software 12.1.A.1.205 and my Talk Talk emails have stopped working. I have been in touch with Talk Talk and my settings are correct - POP3 server - mail.talktalk.net, Port 110... My outgoing emails work absolutely fine. It happened immediately after the upgrade. I can see that that I currently have 57 emails to read on the the phone but it just won't display any at all after the upgrade. Any ideas would be most welcome. Thank you.

        We appreciate you spending so much time with Apple trying to get your information and audio back. We want you to have a fantastic working phone so you can enjoy our wireless network for many more years. Did you have your information backed up before the update? You may be able to follow the steps at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 to restore your iPhone to it's previous information-filled glory.
    As for the volume, make sure to check inside the headset jack for any debris or corrosion. I've come across pocket lint in my headset jack that caused the phone to think I had headphones plugged in. If the jack is all clear, try playing any song from your  Controller Center (Sliding from botton to top with the screen block) using the Earphones. Disconnect the earphones while the song's playing (the song will stop), and then press play again without the earphones in. This may help to trigger the phone to play sound normally. If not, when did you purchase your iPhone? Has there been any damage?
    Thank you

  • Sony 8GB USB 3.0 stopped working

    hello experts! I have purchased Sony 8GB USB 3.0 about two months ago, previously it was working fine, but now it is not showing up in My Computer folder, and when i checked device manager, it was listed in Disk Drives instead of USB devices, and its title is changed to 'Innostor NAND Flash USB Device'. I checked it in different computers with same result. Is there any way to fix this issue? or should i take it back to shop?
    Thank you

  • Sony Alpha 7M2 - rear dial stopped working

    My rear dial stopped working tonight. Tried resetting thinking i may have inadvertantly customized it but nothing. it appears to be trying to change the shutter spped in manual mode but it just goes back and forth fto the next spped setting then back.  Help? Eric

    Hi eleagjeld,
    Welcome to the Sony Community!
    When you said resetting, did you initialize the camera back to its default settings? If yes, I would recommend performing a power reset instead. Take the battery out and switch the camera on for 30 seconds or more. Then switch it back off to reinsert the battery. 
    If the issue is unresolved, service may be needed for your unit.

  • Throw to Sony bluray theatre worked then stopped

    When I got going with tablet, I could throw to my bluray theatre system BDV E380 and it worked no problem. Somewhere along the line however it stopped working - I can no longer see the hometheatre when adding device. No problem throwing to Bluetooth device, and I can even throw to an XMBC renderer on my Mac. Also tried the media remote app, but cannot register the tablet.
    I've done factory resets on both the home theatre as well as the tablet, no luck.
    Where to start looking?

    Well, the first thing would be to try sending something to your bluray theatre from another device, to see if the problem is related to the tablet or the BR system. Since the tablet can send to other devices it seems like there might be something with the BR system.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS4 has stopped working

    I recently purchased and installed Adobe CS4 Design Premium for my new sony vaio LV. Right away I noticed that Photoshop and Bridge do not have the proper logos in the application list. Once I opened Photoshop (64 bit) It seemed to work fine. I opened and image file, but when I tried to add and edit text, the program became inactive and Windows popped up to say that the program had stopped working. Windows then checks for a solution to the problem, determines nothing and does not present an error report. I can't seem to keep the program open long enough to perform even one task. I saved/attached 2 screen shots in word.

    Could a bad install explain why mine has "stopped working"? I've had to install it twice because I keep getting that message, and I've had to re-install it twice because of having to do a couple system recoveries. I'm tired of calling Adobe to tell them that I need to re-register my software! I don't understand why I keep getting that message.
    And, fwiw, if I first open the non-64bit version, then close it, the 64bit version will open without that message. What gives? I've also run the cleaner, and that helped for a little while, but started getting the error again.

  • CoreFoundation.dll crash followed by iTunes Stops Working on Win7 x64

    Hello
    I had a Sony Vaio laptop (64 Bit Win 7 Pro and Office etc) for almost 2 years. After running latest windows updates (I think) iTunes started stopping at launch.
    After searching thru support forums and testing various suggestions, I thought my Win 7 installation got old and corrupted and I was already thinking of upgrading my laptop to i5 or i7, I asked my company to renew my laptop. I started installing my new Sony Vaio.

  • I tunes has stopped working

    Having purchased an I pod almost a year ago I have had a problem free time with both my i pod and i tunes. However, a couple of wheels ago i tunes stopped working. This may have been because I purchased the Sony Ericsson w800i mobile phone and installed the accompanying software onto my computer. Since then an error message appears whenever I try to open i tunes.
    "Quick time failed to initialize. Error#-2093"
    When trying to open quick time the error message appears
    "Quick time failed to initialize. Error#63443"
    Obviously I have uninstalled the phone software, and tryed to reinstall i tunes from the website. However niether has solved the problem. In fact I even called up the helpline, and was sent a bunch of outdated problem solving instructions via e mail.
    I am truly at a loss as to know how to fix the problem, and so was wondering if anyone had the time and expertise to help me?
    Thanks
    Charlie

    That is the error; "iTunes has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution to the problem." Then, the message changes to:
    "A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    The dialog then closes and the Problem Reports and Solutions dialog appears and says:
    "The problem was caused by iTunes.
    A newer version of iTunes is available for download that will address this problem. Apple Inc. recommends updating to the latest version of iTunes to take advantage of security and stability improvements.
    Go to the Apple Inc. website and install the latest version of iTunes:
    Apple Inc."
    I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes, uninstalled the old version, installed new, and the same exact problem just repeats itself.

  • External monitor stopped working on Macbook Pro

    I have a Macbook pro 15 with the vga adapter. I have been using it sucessfully for a month. Today it stopped working. I followed all of the suggestions online but have had no luck resolving this issue. The monitor works fine on my sony laptop but the Mac cannot see it. I have unplugged the adapter, shut down, turned on and plugged it back in as recommended. I tried a different monitor and i have simply restarted the machine with the adapter plugged in. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

    Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys.
