Still Major Problems
After 3 days non stop trying to update my iPhone to 2.0 I still have the the usb and itunes logo on my screen. I havn't been able to use my phone since friday, it seems as though problems are clearing up for most people, but i still am recieving errors (-9808) and sometimes (0xE8000001). Does anybody know how to solve these problems? and has anyone else encountered the same problems?

Have you rebooted your computer? That seems to have helped a lot of people.

64-bit LabVIEW - still major problems with large data sets
Hi Folks -
I have LabVIEW 2009 64-bit version running on a Win7 64-bit OS with Intel Xeon dual quad core processor, 16 gbyte RAM. With the release of this 64-bit version of LabVIEW, I expected to easily be able to handle x-ray computed tomography data sets in the 2 and 3-gbyte range in RAM since we now have access to all of the available RAM. But I am having major problems - sluggish (and stoppage) operation of the program, inability to perform certain operations, etc.
Here is how I store the 3-D data that consists of a series of images. I store each of my 2d images in a cluster, and then have the entire image series as an array of these clusters. I then store this entire array of clusters in a queue which I regularly access using 'Preview Queue' and then operate on the image set, subsets of the images, or single images.
Then enqueue:
I remember talking to LabVIEW R&D years ago that this was a good way to do things because it allowed non-contiguous access to memory (versus contigous access that would be required if I stored my image series as 3-D array without the clusters) (R&D - this is what I remember, please correct if wrong).
Because I am experiencing tremendous slowness in the program after these large data sets are loaded, and I think disk access as well to obtain memory beyond 16 gbytes, I am wondering if I need to use a different storage strategy that will allow seamless program operation while still using RAM storage (do not want to have to recall images from disk).
I have other CT imaging programs that are running very well with these large data sets.
This is a critical issue for me as I move forward with LabVIEW in this application. I would like to work with LabVIEW R&D to solve this issue. I am wondering if I should be thinking about establishing say, 10 queues, instead of 1, to address this. It would mean a major program rewrite.
Sincerely,
DonFirst, I want to add that this strategy works reasonably well for data sets in the 600 - 700 mbyte range with the 64-bit LabVIEW.
With LabVIEW 32-bit, I00 - 200 mbyte sets were about the limit before I experienced problems.
So I definitely noticed an improvement.
I use the queuing strategy to move this large amount of data in RAM. We could have used other means such a LV2 globals. But the idea of clustering the 2-d array (image) and then having a series of those clustered arrays in an array (to see the final structure I showed in my diagram) versus using a 3-D array I believe even allowed me to get this far using RAM instead of recalling the images from disk.
I am sure data copies are being made - yes, the memory is ballooning to 15 gbyte. I probably need to have someone examine this code while I am explaining things to them live. This is a very large application, and a significant amount of time would be required to simplify it, and that might not allow us to duplicate the problem. In some of my applications, I use the in-place structure for indexing
data out of arrays to minimize data copies. I expect I might have to
consider this strategy now here as well. Just a thought.
What I can do is send someone (in US) via large file transfer a 1.3 - 2.7 gbyte set of image data - and see how they would best advise on storing and extracting the images using RAM, how best to optimize the RAM usage, and not make data copies. The operations that I apply on the images are irrelevant. It is the storage, movement, and extractions that are causing the problems. I can also show a screen shot(s) of how I extract the images (but I have major problems even before I get to that point),
Can someone else comment on how data value references may help here, or how they have helped in one of their applications? Would the use of this eliminate copies? I currently have to wait for 64-bit version of the Advanced Signal Processing Toolkit for LabVIEW 2010 before I can move to LabVIEW 2010.

Downloaded the iTunes, 64-bit, 9.1.1 and installed from scratch. Attached my iPhone 3GS, 16GB with 8,75 GB free space!!! Still after three and a half hours it is still syncronizing, and have only completed two thirds... This is really below good enough, Apple!
same crap here and i only have 3gbs of space used out of a 16gb iphone 3gs...never a lick of problems until now.. i don't bother with music under 256 so i wouldn't dream of cheacking 128 conversion for that lousy sounding stuff.
windows 7 professional 64 bits and no issues at all until last update which added ipad...i wish i could go back but what a hassle as i keep my music on another drive and use pointers so not wanting to rebuild library other wise i would go back i have older version. today i did update as i have 2 issues slow syncing and BONJOUR!!!!
the bonjour will fill up event viewer with errors so i leave it disabled in services... no need for it but this shouldn't be happening.
what a clunker apple did to rush this out for lousy ipad. **** lucky i like phone otherwise i would blow apples software off for another phone. -

Another major problem after 10.4.8 update
Hi everyone,
I've never had any major problem with any Mac OS update yet until I had the crazy idea to install the 10.4.8 update last week. I wish I would have never done this. This is also the first time I wish I had Windows since I can't remember such a big screw up with any Windows update I've seen.
But back to the problem, after the installation on my old 12" Powerbook (1.33GHz with an additional 1GB of RAM) the system got really slow. The harddisk was accessed all the time, so after reading some forums people said that Spotlight would run a re-index of the database which made sense to me. So I just let it run over night and the next day the permanent HDD access was gone, but whenever I tried to access a folder it took ages (HDD access again...). So I decided to reboot which took about 20 minutes until the desktop fully showed up and was useable. Again, I had HDD access all the time. After two hours or so it stopped again, but as soon as I clicked on something, for example a folder, it started again. At that point the Powerbook was simply not useable anymore because I couldn't even start a program.
So I start browsing through several forums and many people suggested to re-install the 10.4.8 combo update again. That's what I tried, after a while I could only hear the HDD access running and running. The installer said 29 minutes left and progress bar didn't move any further. I had it running for over a hour like that. I couldn't abort it, I could start no other software, nothing. It still showed 29 minutes and the HDD was accessed all the time.
So I restarted the Powerbook since this obviously wasn't going anywhere. Apple logo came up, the little gear spinning thing as well and of course I could hear the HDD being accessed. After two hours of doing this I aborted and decided to boot into safe mode to install the combo update. Again, same situation. HDD running like crazy and Apple logo, but no login screen coming up.
So I decided to boot from the Install disk and have the disc utility check the HDD... but of course after selecting the language and clicking continue at the screen when the HDD first shows up it starts to access the HDD... I can't select the HDD, I can't even get to the DU, nothing. It's been running like that for hours now. It seems like whenever the HDD is involved in something the accessing starts and just keeps running without any result. The HDD is getting very hot already.
I've never run into such a problem before, so I'm kinda clueless what to do next. I don't mind to reinstall, but I have some files on that HDD that I need (some notes in text files, some emails and so on).
So at this point I can't boot into OS X to access the HDD and I can't use the installer disk to access DU or even reinstall if I wanted to. I don't think the HDD is broken, this only happened after the 10.4.8 update. It just seems that every HDD access takes hours and hours longer than it should.
What options do I have to get my data from the disk? I'll try to install OS X to a new external drive tomorrow (need one with firewire first). If that doesn't help I thought about pulling out the HDD from the Powerbook and hook it up to my MacMini or an iMac.
If anyone has any other suggestion or solved a similar problem before, please let me know.
Best,

I am experiencing some major problems with my MacBook Pro. I have had some issues with it turning on/off at random times, but today, when starting, I get the grey start-up screen and a recovery bar. After filling in approx 1/4 of the way, the machine dies. After starting it in recovery mode, it will not allow me to download OS X Mavericks- it says the disk is locked. Any ideas? I do not have a back-up and do not want to erase everything before I have explored my options. Help?
try forcing internet recover, hold 3 keys - command, option, r - you should see a spinning globe
most people will tell you to do both pram and smc resets (google) and if you still have issues, either clean install (easy) or troubleshoot (hard) -
I have a major problem with my 4th generation iPod. Everytime I go to play it, it will skip songs when I don't want it to, pay for about 10 seconds and skip songs again. Sometimes it will play a song for while and then skip to another song halfway or it will just freeze up. I had this problem before and so I restored it. Now, it is still doing the same thing. I've tried restoring more than once and it still does the same thing. Why is this happening and how do I solve it?
Windows XPYou could try a format of the iPod in Windows. A
full format does a check and remap of bad sectors on
the iPod hard drive, and you would need to restore
the iPod as normal (using the iPod updater)
afterward. This can also work when the iPod is
recognized by the computer, but not by the updater.
First, put the iPod into forced disk mode.
See: How to put the iPod into disk mode.
On your PC, go "my computer" and right click on the
iPod, then choose "format". Ensure the settings are
at "default" and that "quick format" is not checked.
Now select "format". It will take a while, but when
that's finished, restore the iPod using the updater.
If you need to, reset the iPod to exit disk mode.
So far so good except my iPod is not recognised by the updater so I can't restore it. What do I now? -
Major Problems connecting ATV to iTunes
I am having major problems in connecting to my iTunes on my PC. The ATV is not showing up in the devices list at all. It started after I reinstalled windows and reinstalled all the software after having major problems with the internet connection. The ATV is connected to the router with an ethernet cable and I can see it on the router home page. I have also done a full factory restore several times. I can access youtube on the ATV so the connection to the router is good. I can connect to the ATV from my laptop so I can assume the ATV is ok. I have tried everything in the the forum that has been advised and I have tried everything in the apple support also and as some one mentioned in other posts I have a very hot paper weight that I can watch crap youtube videos on!!!!
Any help will be truely appreciated.Not necessarily -- it can still show up in the list but not be properly assigned a network ID (and not available to join the network) if there aren't enough clients available -- are you sure you have it set to at least 50? And you need to make sure you've cloned the Mac address as well if you have a cable modem. It won't hurt to check this. And make sure you try pinging the net ID of the ATV just to make sure it is responding (if not then the ATV unit itself is probably defective).
Let's assume for a moment that both of these settings are fine and it does ping. At that point it almost surely is a permissions thing -- turn off security at the router if wireless (sorry -- this old man just got up and I can't remember if you are wired or not), turn off any firewall and if you have Norton turn it off as well (all of this just for the moment). Stop the iTunes service, reboot the ATV, and then bring up iTunes (which will start up the iTunes service).
I need to shower and then I'm off to the courts (and perhaps I will have awakened and realized something else). -
Major problems with my ipod...
It's quite irritating, and I'd like to start right from the beginning with it's history. if you're uninterested in the history of problems I've had with it just scroll down.
Anyways, I've had my ipod touch since christmas 2008, and in the beginning (maybe the first 1 or 2 syncs) everything was fine. On the third sync i started having problems, and had constantly had to try to get past them where one day i was finally able to completely sync it. After that 3rd sync I never bothered syncing it again on itunes.
Now i got a new laptop, a Dell Inspiron 1525 which uses Vista Home Premium. Since I got my new laptop I wanted to get it connected to itunes from it, rather than the desktop because I was giving the desktop to my dad for him to use as a server (or something, I'm not quite sure). The first time I plugged in my ipod touch, it caused itunes to freeze, making me unplug it and restart my computer.
(My problem:)
Today, I tried syncing it because I was told by my friend a new update to the software was available via itunes which was meant to fix the recent problems with it. I decided to install it, everything was going great. When the software installed into my ipod touch, I tried to sync it, but alas it still did not work. In the end I tried restoring my ipod, and here's where the major problem happened. It started to restore and near the end it told me my device timed out. I unplug and replug my ipod to get the same message.
After 1-2 times, I closed and re-opened itunes in which I tried plugging my ipod touch in again. It gave me an error message (unfortunately I don't remember it), so I decided to restore it one last time. This caused my ipod to now "not be recognized by itunes" as it malfunctioned. I know people have been posting about this problem, but it's not the only problem my ipod has now. Now my iPod touch won't even turn on. i've done EVERYTHING, I held the power and hold button, I held the power and hold button for 10 seconds and held the hold button for another 20seconds (like someone had suggested) and it did not work, and nothings working.
I plan on returning it in exhange for a new one, but i really don't want this to happen again, which i'm afraid it might.
So I have two questions:
1) Why did my iPod do this, and why won't it turn on no matter what the typical drastic responses tell me to do?
2) What can i do so that my ipod will properly sync on my Window's Vista?Is your laptop going to sleep in the process of restoring the Touch? To be safe, you might want to temporarily disable "Hibernation" on your laptop while you sync, and make sure that you have external power applied.

Ive had my iPod Mini for 2 years roughly I think now and havent had any major problems at all.
Yesterday its started playing songs without my touching any buttons and skipping to the next song in exactly the same place as the one before started ~ 2.05 minutes.
When I turned it off it still continued to play random songs.
I tried playing a song it played for two seconds then skipped to the next and played that for a bit then skipped to the next until the playlist had finished where it then returned to the main menu and played a completely random song not even on the playlist i chose previously.
I have not misued my ipod, dropped it, spilt water on it or damaged it in any way.
I have restored it to Main Factory settings and it has done nothing.
If any of you have experienced the same problem or have any ideas of how to help please reply.
I would be truely gratefulFor 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 iPod Updater 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.“Partition Magic”.
If does not work, please find a Mac computer
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 iPod Updater and click “Restore”
I could be wrong, I believe that it could have some bad sectors on the HD of your iPod, doing a full format can only solve 80-90% -
Major problems with Premiere CS4
Hello there!
I'm having major problems with CS4. I recently bought a new computer - essentials are as follows:
Intel Core i7 920 2.66GHz
2 x Kingston 3x2GB, DDR3 1333MHz (=12 GB RAM)
Ati Radeon HD 5770 v2
Asus P6T SE, LGA1366, X58, DDR3, ATX
2 x 500GB, Barracuda 7200.12 (RAID1), system disk
2 x 1TB Barracuda 7200.12, media disks
Windows 7 Pro 64 bit
Adobe CS4 Production Premium + latest updates
The problem I have has mostly to do with Premiere although I think the rest of Production Premium softwares should be running better on this computer as well.
For starters, I was highly disappointed when I couldn't view a single HD clip from the Premiere timeline (it was an .m2ts rip from a previously self-burned Bluray disc) at all. Rendering is very slow and even after that the video doesn't run normally, showing just a few individual frames per second. When I point the timeline at a certain spot, it takes many seconds until even that very frame is shown in the monitor window.
And this is not all - I decided to try with a basic DV AVI clip, previously captured with my PPro 1.5 on my earlier computer (3.2ghz Pentium from 2005). It's a native file so it doesn't even need rendering and still the same problem occurs. With normal playback only about 6-10 frames are shown per second. It's absolutely ridiculous - even my 2004 laptop runs DV AVIs more smoothly with PPro 1.5.
While I'm running the Premiere, the level of used RAM comes only up to around 24 percents. The processor, then again, comes close to a hundred when play is pressed on the timeline.
I haven't had such immense problems with other Production Premium softwares (though as I said, I think they should be running faster as well). Otherwise the computer is running smoothly.
A friend of mine pointed out that the graphics card I'm using isn't on the Adobe website's list of supported ones with Premiere, but afaik it shouldn't even be a graphics card problem with this high-end machinery.
So - I sure could use some help and ideas about how to get the Premiere working. My main intention for buying a new computer and Adobe CS4 Production Premium was to start HD editing after all! Thanks beforehand!Hi
Yeah, I hope he solves problem and knows how it got solved and tells us all...it's like being a detective ! " Mr Plum did it in the "svchost" room ! "
I got a little lost on this....
You are welcome and I'm glad that it paid off so nicely for you. One more suggestion, if I may: I'm a big fan of a fixed pagefile size. When making a fresh install of Windows, one of my first actions is to set a fixed pagefile on a different disk (min=max) before installing anything else on that different disk and removing the pagefile on the C drive. This will ensure that the pagefile in on the fastest part of the drive and will never be fragmented.
I think it used to be that I made swapfiles, or swapdisks which now seems to be called pagefile. That in itself is a little confusing semantic wise, because of the use of mempage stuff. It used to be that base memory was 640k, with the upper memory (to make up 1024 kb) was mostly for drivers and stuff. If more memory was needed than 640k (an event the inventor never thought possible... "who could want more than the enormous amount of 640K ?", he said..)..the extended and expanded memory got invented to swap memory pages from that 640k as needed with the rest of RAM. That's basically correct right ? Sooooo, I don't know if that still goes on, but I suspect it does, unless someone totally changes the architecture of the computer and cpu and fsb and everything... but I don't know what is going on nowadays. Anyway, there were other ways besides windows OS to create virtual memory on the hard drive, and Photoshop was one of the programs that could do that, I think.
Why MS would want to call the swapdisk virtual memory "pagefile" is beyond me.
Anyway, be that as it may, I understand that making the pagefile first on a drive so it's close to the center of the drive (heads don't have to travel far to access). But I haven't added a lot of drives to a system before, and I suspect I will be pretty soon...and this is the part I don't get...
You add drives and put OS on them? So they are bootable ? I've added a drive or two but just formatted and used as more storage but didn't put OS on them. So that part is confusing...
Then you take the pagefile off the C: drive ? Are you then using the new drive as your boot drive and the C: drive is too full to use accept to run the programs already installed ?
Thanks again !

After installing Mountain Lion doesn't external hard drives mount or stay mounted.
I have tried resetting my Mac's PRAM but the problem still remains.
Even USB memory sticks are unmounted efter a few seconds.
Anybody else with this major problem?I have the same problem, although mine has not been solved by ESET update, finder settings, PRAM & SMC resets or anything else.
Don't get it, my external hard drive still works on both my housemates computers - one macbook pro (with snow leopard) and one dell, just not on mine with mountain lion.
Any ideas for me guys? -
10.5.7 update results in major problem with external drives
yesterday I did the 10.5.7 update and now I can't access any of my external hard drives. The message is "you do not have proper privileges". Have tried downloading/installing the combo update, running permissions repair with Disk Utility, even tried reinstalling my original 10.5.2 system with 'Archive and Install', still the problem persists.
In the privileges dialog, the setting is 'custom' and I can't switch anything back to "read/write".
I'm sure there are other problems but this is quite major as all my work files are located in external drives.
help!Is it only Lacie drives you've had trouble with, or is it other brands as well?
This is probably a separate problem, but when I updated to OS X 10.5.7, my Buffalo hard drives disappeared. See these threads:
External Hard Drives not recognized now by 10.5.7

Don't install 10.5.7

Buffalo has since released a patch:

I have been experiencing many issues with mail recently. I've used mail for about 6 years with no problems so these have only occurred since I upgraded to osx leopard a few months ago.
In the last 2 weeks it has become worse - mainly I am not receiving all the emails people are sending me & not everyone I send emails to is receiving them. This is a bit of a problem since I use my .mac account for my business email. It's making me look incompetent to clients and potentially could be losing me work.
It's happening with my gmail and bt accounts through mail too. And when I emailed mac support but all they told me to do was read the article about changing the server port from 25 to 587 and tick ssl. They also said I could use webmail to check my .mac account - but guess what? - The same thing is happening on there!
On top of these I am having the following issues from time to time -
-Emails arriving hours or a day after they were originally sent to me.
-Some emails with attachments (All less than 6mb some only a few kb in size) not arriving to recipient!
-Emails with links to websites not arriving - even when sent up to 10 times... though I was able to send text only emails to the recipient at the same time to the same address from the same .mac account and these were received fine...!!??
-Messages with attachments taking abnormally long to send
-messages without attachments taking just as long to send - even when only one sentence in some cases!
-Emails that have sent and arrived to the recipient not showing in the sent items box...
-Recipients not able to download attachments as they are embedded in the email.
-Emails on occasion not being allowed to be sent. - in this case I changed the port number and followed instructions
from the official support page. Which worked for one email - but every time I tried to send an email I had to change it back again and so on. This lasted for 2 days. My friend had the same issue.
-Pop up box asking for password for several accounts and literally popping up the second after the correct password has been entered. Sometimes up to 20 times in a row - forcing my to close down the application in frustration!
-Being able to receive emails but not send from one account - despite settings all being correct and being possible to send from another computer!
These issues happen intermittently( except the last one) but are a lot of things to be wrong with such a basic and vital application.
It's obvious some of these issues are server related but is mac ever going to resolve them?
Any ideas or help would be greatly recieved.I unfortunately don't have many answers but wanted to express that we are having the same problems at our office. We just switched to OS10.5 and Mail from OS10.3 and Entourage. We have done a complete re-install of all our information and software after "zeroing all data" to try to fix the issues we were having. It's been a very lengthy and time consuming process. Now that it's done and we're back up and running, it seems to have solved one of our major problems - we can now send from all accounts - BUT we still experience the following problems:
-mail asking us to re-enter the password multiple times per day for all accounts
-mail does not think our server is a secure server (but only sometimes and only for some accounts - each time it says this I tell it to "always trust this server" but that doesn't seem to work)
-mail doesn't like some email addresses in our address book. we are told that they are invalid email addresses and have to try to trick it by writing it in a different way, deleting the name, re-typing, clicking in a particular spot on the page after typing it in, etc., etc.) I've tried deleting all previous recipients but this doesn't work
-mail crashes unexpectedly when quitting
I'd love it if someone could tell us when these issues will be addressed as I see a number of frustrated people on the discussion boards.
