This is annoying.  Help!

I recently bought a laptop and am wanting to transfer all my music from my old itunes library to the new one. ( I am running a windows, forgot to mention that.) I somehow messed up the directions to use my ipod as a hard drive and am now stuck. When I plug in my ipod into either of my computers I get the do not disconnect display and that's it. I can eject my ipod, load my playlists, and use my ipod but when it is hooked up to my computer I cannot get the do not disconnect sign to go away. Any suggestions. I'd appreciate the help.

First, forget your iPod for a while, make sure that you have the back up of all your music. Try to link your laptop and old computers via Lan or WiFi Lan, and complete the transfer.
Once it has being completed, eject your iPod and do a Reset. Your iPod should back to life again, if not, you have to plug it back with your computer and do a Restore.

  • How do I stop this extremely annoying noise?

    Whenever I record a movie in imovie with my built-in isight camera and built-in microphone, there is this incredibly annoying background noise - a fast beeping that almost seems to represent the cadence of the frame rate. I thought it was some kind of tool but when I save the event and play it in quicktime on its own, the beeping remains!!! Its killing me. Please help me make it stop.
    I apologize if this is a topic that has already been covered, I'm not sure how to find out if it has.

    Mate, I HIGHLY, HIGHLY doubt that the hum of my computer is the cause of this noise. The volume of the noise is significant enough to be a major issue. It is not a light static or low-level humming. It is fast beep, going off at a rate of about 25 per second. If it were part of an ichat or phone call the average person would not tolerate the sound and think there is an error. Plus, the noise is sharp, clear, rhythmic, and unheard in any other situation but this use of imovie.
    Thanks for the input, mate, but the likelihood this explanation is correct is extremely low. Anybody else with an explanation/solution that doesn't involve buying a replacement microphone?

  • Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.,

    Is there a way of connecting the ipad to the smart board in the classroom, so that the smartboard is the control, and the ipad is displaying what is on the smartboard? This is to help a visually impaired child see what is on the smartboard.

    Absolutely!
    Install Splashtop2 on the PC and enable it to be controlled or ran from iPad or Reflection to simply allow iPad to serve as PC unwired monitor. With Splashtop and an Apple TV connected, you use the smartboard as usual, yet the PC and iPad can see the same content. The impaired child can even interact with the Smart Board via the iPad as if he were writing directly on the big screen. Erasing functions can be done by touching the Smart Board manual controls. Several variables are in play that cause this lack of functionality:
        Apple won't permit PC software that infringes its proprietary apps.
        Smart Board companies refuse to develop iPad apps because they feel threatened and are being replaced by iPads
        School districts think Apple TV is meant for copyright infringement and could expose them to safe harbor lawsuits
        Network administrators make it impossible to login Apple TVs because they don't want the streaming occurring
        Classrooms are not able to keep up with the technology of using the iPad
        Clicker companies refuse to play with iPad because they see it as a potential threat to their core business clients
        Apple is not working as hard as it could to exploit its capabilities in education, thus losing money in iPad sales
    The bottom line is that we educators and technology developers are hurting our childern with petty conflicts.

  • Is there a phone number to call Adobe.  I go around an endless loop pressing their contact info tabs?  Maybe someone at this sight can help. I am new to digital photo - I have been a B&W film photographer for many years. I have a problem with a Macbook Ai

    Is there a phone number to call Adobe.  I go around an endless loop pressing their contact info tabs?  Maybe someone at this sight can help. I am new to digital photo - I have been a B&W film photographer for many years. I have a problem with a Macbook Air.  It was working fine - I was using LR and a message came on the screen that said something like the memory was dangerously low.  I stopped and tried to delete LR files.  I couldn't do it.  I closed the program and tried reopening and got the message that there is not enough memory available to open LR.  I contacted Apple.  They spent a half hour on the phone with me and eventually told me they didn't know how to help. The tech said that LR had gobbled up all the memory and said I should contact Adobe and ask where and how my photo files are stored and to delete them.  I have several back-ups.  Thanks - Arthur

    This sort of error message only comes up for Lightroom when your hard disk is full. Indeed this has nothing to do with internal memory as that will be intelligently be dealt with. If you have a mac Book Air that is not so surprising as the cheapest versions come with very small hard disks and if you shoot raw with any recent camera, you'll fill up your hard disk very quickly and you can probably only store a few months of pictures if you are a typical photographer. So the bottom line is that you need to create some room on your hard disk. You should move some of your originals to an external hard disk. You can also delete some of your backup copies of your catalog file that Lightroom automatically generates every few days and that quickly gobble up hard disk space. So first figure out how full your hard disk is. To see that, go to the apple menu, hit -> About this Mac -> More info->Storage. You should see your internal hard disk on top and you'll find that it is almost entirely full with photos. Now find your Lightroom catalog file using Finder. It is usually in a folder in the Pictures folder in your home directory. You should see a Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file, a previews file and a folder called backups. Inside the backups folder, you'll find a lot of subfolders. They have names that show the dates the backups were created. If you have backups of your entire hard disk, you can delete these backups when they are older than a few months. I usually only keep the last 4 around. Just drag the folders into the trash can on the dock on the bottom of your screen and empty the trash. This will probably free up enough space that Lightroom will already run again. Now start thinking about where you will want to store older images. If you have a good USB3 or Thunderbolt hard disk that is probably the best option. There is a video here by Adobe that has some instructions on how to do this: Is Your Hard Drive Full? Here’s How to Move Images to Another Drive in Lightroom. « Julieanne Kost's Blog If that doesn't work because you don't have enough hard drive space to run Lightroom yet, here is another set of instructions to move your files using the finder to the other hard disk: How do I move only my photos to another hard drive, leaving the catalog where it is? - The Lightroom Queen. If you follow that, as soon as you confirm all your images are on the new hard disk, you can delete them from your internal one. She is not so clear about that part but if you don't delete the originals that you moved off you don't free up space. You should move the folder structure over to the new hard disk and then reconnect the folders in Lightroom. That should make it refind all your images.
    That said, if you are uncomfortable with the computer in itself, your best bet is to find a local photography club. There is invariably a Lightroom savvy person in there that could help you move your files. That might be your best bet if you are uncomfortable moving these yourself. A general mac savvy person like you would find at an Apple store or so generally will not be able to help you with this except when they are photographers themselves and know Lightroom. You might get lucky with that.

    Hi there navicin79,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the articles below helpful. The first thing I would try is reinstalling iTunes as outlined in the first article.

    Hi, i set my PC new up, and now i want to get all my music from my apple tv (first generation) back on my PC, how can i do this ? Pls help me.

    Sorry, but you probably can't. You cannot sync from an Apple TV to a PC except for items purchased from the iTunes Store on the Apple TV. You'll need to restore from the backups you made of your iTunes library, which I presume you made?

    Accidental damage is not covered under Apple warranty.  And it seems there is much accidental damage.  Only a Genius Bar tech looking at it can tell how much it will cost to repair.
    Cost to repair will be high, I suspect (though Genius Bar will confirm/deny.

  • My hotmail is unable to receive the iCloud activation mail and I cannot verify my hotmail address within the Apple ID homepage.  Any way to resolve this?  Any help appreciated

    I have a hotmail address set up as a primary account in my Apple ID homepage only.
    Any way to resolve this?  Any help appreciated

    The email address that forms the username for your AppleID is irrelevant. It does not have to be accurate, working, or even in use by you. Software purchased with a specific AppleID must use that ID to update that software.
    I don't know what happens when you change the old username for the AppleID.
    Did you change the user name for th AppleID or did you get a new AppleID with your new email?
