Third Times a Charm?????

Okay, I'm on my THIRD yes, I said THIRD iPod Touch. My first one stopped turning on and then it gave me the Apple screen of death and stopped loading altogether. I went to the Apple store as it was still under warranty. The "refurbished" one they gave me only lasted about a month before it did the same thing as the first. I was able to swap the second one out for a third. I'm having the same issues. I have already downloaded iTunes more than once. I have done iPod restores more than once. Now my third one only turns on when it wants to. I have gotten the Apple icon of death more than once, and then wait a day or two and then it comes back to life. Sometimes it turns on without any issues but 95% of the time, I have to do the "reset" more than once for it to turn on, and then it will say that the battery is dead (red battery symbol), but that can't be true because I charge it every night for at least 4 hours and turn it off at night.
My question is, I have done everything I know to do, and this is my third one. I know my iTunes is working because my Nano works like a charm....so it has to be the iTouch. Does anyone have any more suggestions OR has anyone else experienced this same issues? I have had the same issues with and without the new 3.0 version so I don't think that is really the problem. HELP PLEASE I'm so frustrated!

Are you using a an AC adapter to charge the Touch?
If so where did you get it from ?
If not does the computer "sleep" when the Touch is hooked up to charge ?
In the first case the adapter may be the problem in the second a sleeping computer will drain the charge from the Touch and you say you do that every day.
If none of the above applies take the Touch to a friend's who has an Apple usb charger, or any charger from a reputable maker who isn't charging $2.95, and try charging it there and on his computer.
If it still doesn't work you've got another dud, the odds are huge but it must happen to someone sometime and it's your bad luck it's you, so descend on Apple and get another.

    Third time's a charm. This is a fix for the checkbox/radiobutton bug where halo components with spark skins were not positioning the icons correctly when the components had no label. The fix is to always make room (vertically) for a label, whether it is there or not. This allows these controls to align nicely with other labeled versions of those controls. It will break some Mustella tests that assign a smaller vertical height.
    Note that the earlier attempt at this fix applied the vertical adjustment to all halo components, even when running with the halo theme. This new version restricts the fix to only halo components running with the spark theme (which is where the problem was to begin with, since the adjustment is necessary due to the different padding styles in spark skins). So only halo components with spark skins should be affected by this change.
    QE notes: Breakage in Checkbox and globalization Mustella tests due to larger vertical size of CheckBox and RadioButton. (updates have been made and will follow this checkin)

  • AIRMenuBuilder Question (Third Time's A Charm?)

    This will be the third time I've posted this same question in
    various ways. Having received no responses, I'm wondering if anyone
    out there is actually using AIRMenuBuilder....but here goes anyway:
    Once I've created a root menu with AIRMenuBuilder, can I
    replace it with another? For example, my initial menu has 5
    horizontal, top-level items (A,B,C,D,E). The first four (A,B,C,D)
    have submenus, but when the fifth (E) is selected, I'd like to
    overwrite the initial horizontal menu with a new one.
    The menus are created from JSON files, and the onSelect
    events are handled by Javascript. Running into the "Adobe AIR
    runtime security violation for JavaScript code in the application
    security sandbox," I created a parent sandbox bridge. The value of
    the new JSON file is successfully passed (and displayed in alerts),
    but I'm still getting a security violation and the new menu does
    not appear. Relevant snippets below.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions you could offer.
    Snippet 1 from index.html:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var root = air.ui.Menu.createFromJSON ("menus/rootmenu.js");
    air.ui.Menu.setAsMenu (root);
    var bridgeInterface = {};
    var newRootMenu = bridgeInterface.newRootMenu;
    bridgeInterface.newMenu = function(newRootMenu){
    var menuSource = "menus/" + newRootMenu + ".js";
    alert(menuSource); // displays properly, with correct values
    root = air.ui.Menu.createFromJSON(menuSource);
    alert('About to put up a new menu...'); // never displays,
    security violation must be line above
    air.ui.Menu.setAsMenu(root);
    alert('Well, we tried putting up a new menu, but...'); //
    never displays
    function engageBridge(){
    document.getElementById('contentArea').contentWindow.parentSandboxBridge
    = bridgeInterface;
    alert('Bridge is engaged!'); // displays properly
    </script>
    Snippet 2 from index.html:
    <iframe
    id="contentArea" name="contentArea" bgcolor="white"
    width="100%" height="98%"
    src="
    http://192.168.x.x/local/ui.html"
    sandboxRoot="
    http://192.168.x.x/local/"
    documentRoot="app:/sandbox/"
    ondominitialize="engageBridge()"></iframe>
    Snippet from print.js:
    case "E":
    var menuName = "eMenu";
    bridgeInterface.newMenu(menuName);
    break;

    :) Third time is lucky. Jokes aside, I apologize for the late
    response. I forgot to subscribe to the earlier thread.
    You should be able to replace the root menu using the
    setAsMenu(newMenu, true) call.
    createFromJSON() does an eval() call to parse the JSON
    object. eval() is only allowed in the application sandbox while the
    application is starting up. Take a look at JSONDataSource in
    AIRMenuBuilder.js. If you can modify that to parse the JSON string
    in any other way other than via eval() (as3corelib has a JSON
    parser) you'll have what you want.
    In your case, I think simply using the XML way to load a menu
    should solve your problem. You don't need the bridge.
    P.S: And don't worry, this time I've subscribed to this post.

  • My laptop y510p has an issue for the third time and i need a replacement

    my y510p laptop got an issue for three times and i need a replacement
    i bought it in april/2014 and more than 2 and half months wasted for maintenance.
    first time:
    after few weeks i got problem with screen colors and i sent the laptop and the problem was in the motherboard and they replaced it.
    second time:
    i got it from maintenance center with 2 issues:
    1- camera wasn't working
    2- suddenlly  freeze from time to time , sometime a blue screen appear after ,  i need to turnoff laptop from the power button to work again and it takes so long to open after that.
    i sent the laptop again.
    note: maintenance center claims that there wasn't any issue and even the camera that they told me that they fixed it they didn't wirte it in report. that's what i figured out when i talked with lenovo customer services
    third time:
    suddenly freeze from time to time again when i tried to enter bios immediatly after freeze happen i found that 
    harddisk wasn't  appearing.
    so i sent it again and i asked for replacement
    maintenance replied that it's a motherboard and hardisk issues.
    stayed there for 45 days and i called them for like 7 times to know what is the reply on my request and every time they ask me to wait more.
    today i called them and they told me that the request of replacement is refused ...!
    and they told me to post a message here if i insist on replacement.
    laptop serial no:xxxxxxxxx
    Mod comment: Removed Serial number for posters security.

    It´s crazy how many people have the same kind of problems with this computer.. and what´s even worse is that it seems that the only option is to send it to Lenovo for a motherboard replacement. I have the same problem (mainboard dead) but unluckily for me, my y510p is out of warranty (I only used it for like 4-5 months then it was stored while I was away). Everyday I get on the internet to look for a motherboard replacement myself but I just can´t find any.. Why is that? 
    Also, this is a "new" computer, if I´m not wrong it was released around the end of 2013. How is it that they already discontinued it? Do they usually discontinue their products that fast? Or is it perhaps all these Y510P computers had problems from production? How can someone spend over a thousand dollars, use the computer for a few months (normal use, not even gaming..) and one day is dead and the motherboard needs replacement?? Why nobody really complains about this? I really don´t know what to do as that were all my money. I really just want to get rid of this crap and never ever buy Lenovo again and never ever recommend it to anyone. I don´t even feel secure spending the money on a motherboard replacement because it seems to me that the problem will come back. Because as I said this seems to be a problem in their production of this particular model. Again, over a thousand dollars computer and its quality is worst than the cheapest ones.. shame on Lenovo.

    The Battery in my laptop has been replaced twice and this is the third time the battery has swollen up.
    Since the first time it was swollen I have asked the reason but Apple has not come up with a reason and just replaced it.
    Second time also the service centre replaced the battery but were unable to give me a reason.
    I had asked them to replace the laptop as this has been happening repeatedly and seems to be something with the laptop
    otherwise why should every battery they put swell ?
    This is the third time this has happened. And now they refuse to replace the battery or the laptop also.
    What is the solution?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and press the problem. Elevate to store manager if necessary. Maybe the charging circuits are defective resulting in overcharging which is causing the battery problem.

  • After recent update, all but 7 songs disappeared from my iPhone 5 while I was driving. This is the third time! I only sync from cloud, not the computer. I had over 600 songs and its a pain to keep reloading!

    IPhone 5 keeps dropping my songs, this after an update. I know it's a software issue. I have shut down and re-started, I have made sure there's available space, etc. this is the third time in the last 2 weeks. Help!

    First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
    Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
    Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
    What computer do you have?

    Had the same problem, finally realized that the FileVault Encryption was struck at 19%. Speed back up to normal after I disabled FileVault using terminal command - sudo fdesetup diable
    To check whether the FileVault is the culprit, go to System Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> FileVault to see if encryption is in progress.. For me the blue bar was less than a quarter with status 'estimating time remaining'..
    Then open Terminal and type in: sudo fdesetup disable
    It will then ask for the admin password (to be it asked twice), then it was disabled... Back to normal life again..
    Here is my terminal log for reference:
    Last login: Tue Oct 21 23:05:13 on console
    Gowthams-MBP:~ asgowtham$ fdesetup status
    FileVault is On.

  • Send/Receive issue- third time in one week

    I've been having the same issue for the past week with my phone sending and receiving emails. 
    The first time, I had "No Service" for over a day and finally took the battery out and it was okay except for the receiving emails part.
    The second time, I called the T-Mobile support line and they walked me through the process and everything worked smoothly.
    Yesterday and this morning, same issue.  I couldn't send or receive.  So I took the battery out, resent service books and now everything is fine.
    My concern is that this is the third time in one week that this has happened.  When I spoke with the rep, he said there didn't seem to be any network issues.  At first he thought there was a server issue because I'm from the west but now live in the midwest and my phone still "operates" on the west coast network (if you will) but there didn't seem to be any issues out there. 
    Has anyone else ever experienced this issue this often?  Any recommendations on additional steps I should take opposed to always taking the battery out and resending service books, etc.?
    Thanks!
