Sync error(3689) /w new MBP to AppleTV(G1) & NO Firewall
I switched form Windows to a MBP and I get a Sync error(3689) from iTunes to my AppleTV(g1), there is no firewall on the MBP. I've tried resetting to factory load and it still fails. Funny thing is I can still Sync from my iTunes Windows box.
Update on problem with ATV(G1) and new MBP17 (Thunderbolt). Did a Factory Restore on the ATV which took it back to v1.1 and wiped all the content of the ATV. Then updated to current ATV software, then set up an entirely new sync connection to my iTunes Library on the MBP.
The selected a few items to sync on the MBP (so I could see results quickly, rather than waiting for a 55GB sync to fail). Clicked Apply. Then clicked Sync.
The sync then starts. It syncs one song. iTunes shows progress bar in the normal way. Then it hangs (progress bar stops).
Then I quit iTunes. It warns me that an Apple TV is syncing. But confirm quit.
Then reopen iTunes, and I find the ONE song is happily synced on to the ATV.
Immediately after restarting iTunes, it then (correctly) starts to sync again, picking up with the next song on the list.
But it then hangs again, after ONE song.
So, what do we know?
1) iTunes 10.2.1 on new MBP does correctly 'see' the ATV(G1) over both WiFI and Ethernet (I've tried both).
2) It is possible to correctly set up the ATV(G1) to sync with the iTunes Library on MBP. The ATV generates the Passcode and iTunes on the MBP accepts that Passcode in the normal manner.
3) But note here - iTunes asked for the passcode TWICE. Is this a fault?
4) iTunes happily accepts your sync instructions (either automatic or manual) and starts to sync.
5) It then hangs after one song (or a couple of photos).
6) On reopening iTunes it picks up sync where it hung up, but then only does one song.
A thought about an issue that may be part of the problem. I used Apple's Migration Assistant to set up my new MBP by restoring the contents of my old MP 8-Core's hard drive to the new machine from a back up on an Apple Time Capsule, using Apple Time Machine. (Basically, a 100% Apple-approved process for setting up a new Mac with all the data and settings from a previous Mac).
In EVERY other respect (email settings etc) this process has worked 100%.

S.M.A.R.T. errors on my new MBP
Hello guys,
I have installed "SMART Utility" (http://www.volitans-software.com/SMART_Utility.html) on my brand new MacBook Pro to check the health of its hard drive.
Obviously, I thought that it would be perfect but... the tool allows to read an Error Log stored into the drive, and 4 errors have happened already! Here is the content of the Error Log:
Number - Time Occured - Error - Prior Command
4 - 81 hours - Uncorrectable Error - READ DMA EXT
3 - 81 hours - Uncorrectable Error - READ DMA EXT
2 - 81 hours - Uncorrectable Error - READ DMA EXT
1 - 81 hours - Uncorrectable Error - READ DMA EXT
However, the overall status of the drive is "PASSED", there is no bad sector, CRC error, etc.
Could someone install the tool on his Mac then tell me if errors are found into the Error Log? I just want to get the confirmation that it's normal to get such errors... Thanks!!
Eventually, if you know how to clear the internal Error Log of a drive...The third-party SMART utilities may check for unsupported data. Manufacturers can support none, some, or all of the SMART data checks depending on their data research information. Most new drives support some sub-set but not all. The reported errors may not be true errors but simply the result of checking for information the drive doesn't support.
The only definitive answer is to have the computer diagnosed at an Apple service center to determine if the drive is OK. You can also run the hardware test suite to see if any errors are reported:
Insert the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer into the optical drive and restart. After the chime press and hold down the "D" key until the diagnostic screen appears. Run the extended diagnostics several times over at least an hour. If any errors are reported note down the error code and message reported. If your computer is still in warranty call AppleCare to report your findings and arrange for a solution. -
How to sync previous purchases to new 2nd Gen appletv?
I tried searching but didn't find any posts that answer my question. I had the 1st gen apple tv and purchased many songs and movie titles. How do I sync my purchases to my 2nd gen apple tv?
ATV2 doesn't have syncing capabilities, unlike the 1st model there is no permanent storage.
You use home-sharing to see your iTunes library and you can access TV shows purchased via iCloud. If you have iTunes Match you can access that from the cloud via ATV2 as well. -

New MBP, and am having memory trouble errors with MS Word 2004
Hi,
I know this has been talked about before, but I'm not sure where to post this question. I have a new MBP, with a full version of Word (no previous trial software installed). I have been trying to copy and past basic text files from Yahoo mail, to create a book of emails of sorts. My file size has been approaching my memory capacity (basic setup). Does it not create a swap file and let you keep going if you approach the limits of the onboard memory? I understand it will run a bit slower, but I'm only moving text files and nothing else. Why the proverbial memory/disk full error messages? Does it have anything to do with the software being non universal code?
Do I need to get rid of temporary files, as Im copying and pasting alot? If so, how?
Anyone have the same trouble, and have a clear solution? I could also swear my MPB is running alot slower with Word than I would have expected.
Any help you can give me would b appreciated.
Thanks,
DaveI’ll try to answer your questions briefly without going into too much detail. First of all, I think the error message you are seeing is generated by MS Word and not your operating system. That particular error, and other similar ones, are quite common in Word in particular situations and are the result of a known bug.
As far as I know, there is no fix, but there are several work-arounds. The bug has to do with the number of temporary files that get created when working with large Word files. As you might guess, the larger your file, the larger the temp files, and they will quickly fill up your existing RAM, which then causes the error that generates the message. You have to delete the temp files---you can do that by saving and closing your file, then restart it. There are some scripts you can run, but that is beyond what I want to get into here (and usually is not necessary).
The other problem is that by copying and pasting text from Yahoo Mail, you are not pasting simple text---you are pasting all the HTML code, formatting, and everything else that is contained in that text. And Word saves it all, then adds its own formatting and other code---leading to corrupt files sooner or later.
And then, to make it all worse, if your file is as large as you say it is (close to system memory in size), that is one huge Word file, and Word does not handle really large files very well, especially Word 2004, but all versions of Word, Windows versions included, have trouble with large files.
Word does in fact run slowly on even the newest MacBook Pros because Word is not yet compiled for the Intel Macs and does not run natively as a universal binary but runs under Rosetta, which translates Word to run on Apple computers running Intel CPUs. If you are working with small files, it isn’t too bad, but big files will slow it down to almost a crawl at times, or it will even stop responding for several seconds between each command.
You can work around these problems by breaking your file into much smaller ones, save often (and close the file once in while), and save as a text file, rather than as a doc file.
An alternative is to use another word processor or text editor to save your copied text---there are many that will work as well as or better than Word for what you want to do. Pages is a good alternative----I have to collaborate on Word files every day, and I prefer to work on my MacBook Pro (although I also use Windows-based computers about as frequently, too), and except for the most complex Word files with tables, charts, and pictures, Pages works very well, and you can save the file as a Word document, too, if you need to.
Hope that answers some of your questions----and always remember….I could be wrong. -
Hi, my iPod touch has been unable to sync since downloading the new cloud software. It says: An error occurred while restoring this iPod (-34) So my music is not on it. The apps are still on it. It doesn't have 3G so the cloud is pointless anyway. It just said it was a software update, I should have avoided it. Music is all I use on it so help me please!

IPod Touch / iTunes sync error -50 on iMac, due to new upgrade for iPhoto
I have an iPod Touch, software version 3.0.
I have an iMac, on Mac OS X 10.5.8.
I am on iTunes version 8.2.1.
I am on iPhoto 09 version 8.1 (415).
Ever since Apple released it's latest iPhoto upgrade about 2 weeks ago, I have not been able to sync my iPod Touch with iTunes, and instead getting a 'sync error -50'.
Apple's phone tech support did not know what the problem was and recommended me to Restore my iPod, as well as re-install iTunes. This did not help.
After much aggravation, I found a discussion group addressing the fact that it might have to do with the latest version of iPhoto. So, in iTunes I unchecked the sync iPhoto option, and now the rest of the sync's worked (iCal, Address book, music, movies, etc).
Still, I am looking for a solution, as I do not find not syncing my photos a long term solution. Can I do this on my own, or does a solution have to come in the form of a fix from Apple?
I want my photos back on the iPod, and am very thankful for any tips/help (...hello, anyone from Apple reading this?).I don't think any of the work-arounds are really valid or deal with the problem. My Mac Pro desktop computer is 2 years old, so the problem obviously has nothing to do with a computer being new. I also don't see how it can have anything to do with iPhoto. If I get this error and "QUIT" iTunes and reboot iTunes, the iPod syncs perfectly, even though no changes were made.
I actually bought a new iPod this week because I thought my old iPod was failing (due to these repeated errors). Imagine my horror when the brand new iPod had the same problem.
Hopefully someone can figure out what going on. -
New MBP 15", Windows installation fails with error 0x80070570 or 0x80070570D
Hey guys!
I finally got a new MBP a few weeks ago, and I wanted to install a Windows partition for some games. I have tried this with several different windows copies (both legal and illegal, and both of windows 7 and windows 8), but to none avail. The exact error message I keep getting is:
Windows 7:
"Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or mossing. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the application. Error code: 0x80070570"
Windows 8:
"Windows cannot install required files. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the application. Error code: 0x80070570D"
Any help will be greatly appreciated!I've let the bootcamp utility put the disk images on the USB. As I mentioned before, I got the Windows installation images through various legal and illegal sources and made several attempts with each and evere disk image, so that should not be the cause.

CS4 not running on new MBP, licensing error?!
My 2008 MBP finally bit it and I just got a new MBP with Mavericks. I transferred my old drive over to the new computer but I can't get CS4 to work. It keeps saying there's a licensing error (150:30). Help!!
The CS4 apps should work fine in Mavericks - it sounds as if you're having a problem stemming from Adobe.
If I were you, I would contact Adobe support and see if they have a solution for your problem. It would also be good to know exactly how you transferred the files - you may have to completely reinstall CS4 again to get all of the support files in place.
Good luck,
Clinton

While looking to upgrade to a newer MBP, found out latest version of iTunes does not support wired syncing of iCal and contacts. Syncing of these must be done through iCloud. This is a deal breaker for me for several reasons. Are there any workarounds or do I have to go back to a PC with my tail tucked between my legs?
When you say wired syncing, are you meaning between an iphone and your mac?

Why is there over ten thousand file in my "All My Files" on my new MBP. I'm very new at using ICloud. I don't understand syncing vs time vs time vs syncing! I simply have not idea how to manage my files now. I read short comments & how to's in the support sections, but nothing I've read so far explains"best practices" or turning iCloud off to get a grip on managing files. I have 250gb fast storage on the MBP itself, and 200gb in the ICloud, one would thing that's enough. The files seem too be multiplying like rabbits. IPhoto's Faces has created hundereds of "somethings" not sure what. I am sure I am very frustrated! Please comment with kindness.

Yes,I am confused. To say its just another drive is a "buzz statement".
OK, for example. If I download a document, song, or photo from ICloud, as I understand, it goes to Download in Finder. If I want to move it to a local folder of my choice on the solid state drive in my new MBP, does a copy always stay in ICloud? How do you housekeep? I have always used to a physical drive. What is different about the mind set. I used ICloud to store the contents of my old MBP. Once I download all the files I need, should I turn off ICloud and manage the file locally? I don't like the automatic movement of files when I don't understand the locations.
Nope, you don't understand it.
If you download a song from the iTunes cloud storage (which is not iCloud) it goes into the iTunes music folder (generally to a subfolder therein)
If you download a document from the iCloud drive it will go wherever you chose to put it.
If you download a photo from the iCloud Photo library it will also go wherever you choose to put it.*
If you move something you have not copied it, if you want to keep a copy on the iCloud drive and in a local folder, you would copy, not move it.
There is no 'automatic' movement, you decide what to store on the iCloud drive (exactly like any other drive) and what to remove.
The iCloud drive appears as a folder in Finder, you use it just like any other, copy/paste, save, delete etc.
You can turn the iCloud drive off whenever you like, download the content to a local drive first.
* Because the iCloud drive appears as a folder in Finder there is in fact no need to ever download anything to your Mac, everything on the drive is already on your Mac. -
I need so sync all settings and files from one MBP to my new MBP HELP!!!
Ok, so due to heat issue i am getting a brand new mbp as a replacement from apple this week, it should arrive in 2 or 3 days! Only thing is i have my origional one set up to perfection, it has all my settings nailed down and all applications etc that i use installed and ready to go. is there any way that when my replacement unit arrives that i can sync the 2? so that all my os x settings, e-mail accounts etc AND all my files, itunes libruary, iphoto libruary (over 5000 photos!) are safely transported to the new machine and ready to use?
Thanks fellow mbp forum geek dudes! =D
Macbook Pro 2.16 7200rpm Hd Mac OS X (10.4.6) Boy is It HotThe heat was pretty bad, like i said, botom of case getting to massive temperatures. Even when just surfing the net etc. The problem for me was that it was so hot that you couldnt touch it for more than about a second, and you certianly couldnt use it on your lap. I also found that the fans were not coming on to a high setting when the laptop was really hot, and this was not helping the issue. Apple were amazing though. I rang them and they ran me through some tests, these didnt work so i said i wanted a replacement, they didnt argue or try to put me off though. They fully respected my desicion and ordered me a new laptop the same day. I even get to keep the old one untill after the replacement arrives so that i can do the whole sync thing that caused me to start this topic!

2 days new MBP / Partition error & Filevault freeze
Hi all,
I just get a brand new MBP. Unfortunately I can't create a new partition (from Boot camp or Disk Utility)
It seems that the problem is due to the activation of FileVault (which is always asking me to plug the book in order to finish encryption... but when i plug it .. nothing change)
My question is :
May I will have trouble if I reformat the disk entirely (no precious data on it) ?
I want to do it without any risk of crashing definitely the disk.. ( core storage story blablabla ..)
I saw many topics with people trying to play with partition (in order to save or erase or modify ..) no success.
- I tried to do a re install from the cmd + R
-> No change
I just want to have again this yosemite "setup" that you have when you open the box from apple...
I hope my question is clear.
Thx

Resume Time Machine Backup On New MBP (props available)
Hello Officials,
I do not mean to scare away answers, but I am an experienced Mac boy, and would be forever honored with help on (this now) complicated issue below:
Info:
My old MBP had a couple of logic board replacements, now I have the new MBP. I want to perform a clean install, and thus don't want to restore from my full time machine backup (3.3TB of data). I did use Migration-sh't-Assitant for my apps, (and proper delete process for ones I didn't want) but want further options. My main problem is that I would like to go back to having my old version of Mail (with mailbox's and rss) and my old +Address Book+. (I am aware of the longer steps to get these two to work) _As well as_, I want to resume my Time Machine backups from my old backups.
Goal:
Continue using my old Time Machine backups for my new computer. Without 'Browse Other..'.
*You Should Know -That I Know*
I can hold option for a different Time Machine, it is a terrible way to operate the machine and its files.
It is a challenge due to the MAC address.
I can just re-sync Mail with all my other accounts, but I have a lot. I don't want to do that.
Address Book, even on my 'Browse other time machine disks' this is quite funky. Open to suggestions.
I already moved the backup onto a new drive. This is different.

Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean the old versions of the Mail and Address book apps, or the old data? What version of OSX is on each Mac?

That's outdated (2008), and not needed on Snow Leopard. When the first backup of your new Mac starts, you should get an option to "re-use" the backups. See #B5 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). But note that however you answer that, Time Machine will do a new, full backup of the new Mac.
