This is getting tiring....
Wow ive been at this for 8 hours now...i got my new ipod with video playback this morning and since then ive been trying to get itunes to work. at first i downloaded QT PRO then i thought you had to to something to get my music for windows media and my movies from windows media on to Itunes but obviously i have no clue how to do this,IF ANYBODY knows how to convert music and video files from windows media player on to itunes PLEASE HELP ME OUT and leave a message please!!!!
You just bought it. QuickTime Pro will create these formats.
As a test view and "save" a QT .mov file from one of the movie trailer sites.
Save it to your Desktop and name it test.mov and then open it with QT Pro.
Choose "Export" and pick the Export to iPod settings. Wait for the file to finish and you'll have an .m4v file you can add to iTunes and play on your iPod.
You'll need to find other software to convert .wmv or .mpg files because QT Pro can't export them to iPod formats.

I installed and uninstalled shockwave a number of times but nothing seems to work. It continually locks up my computer. I always get an error message.....shockwave has stopped working...in my browsers, no matter which one i use. This is really getting tiring and I'm so frustrated.
I've researched and made adjustments according to what others think the problem is but it never works. What is going on? Do I have a program which is blocking it?...My computer is only a few years old and I have to say I never had this problem before.
I have the latest version. Should I try to get to an older version? Is there another program I can use. It doesn't matter if I'm playing games or just going to my home page. I get the error message and the computer locks up.
Any REAL working suggestions?I can't provide one because it's not one in particular. It happens when my home page opens (msn.com), when I'm on facebook, when I try to go to any page. In Chrome the message comes up stating Shockwave has stopped working; In Foxfire, I have the same error message with foxfire wording. It is nothing specific, nothing. I will uninstall it and try to find another program in it's place.
I know many people are having the same problem. I use Win8.1 -
how do I STOP this from updating to NEW VERSION? I am getting tired of uninstalling and reinstalling every 10 uses. Ver.10 is Garbage!!!!!
WHEN it decides to run it does NOT member passwords.
And besides, if I WANTED NEW I would DOWNLOAD NEW!!!
''[Profanity removed by moderator. Please read [[Forum and chat rules and guidelines]], thanks.]''This issue can be caused by the presence of leftover files in the Firefox program folder (defaults\pref) like a file firefox.js that overrides the update URL with a wrong link.
Do a clean reinstall and be sure to remove the Firefox program folder.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Fire Fox does not ask to save tabs when I exit. It started this when I loaded my last update - 4.0. How do I fix? Getting tired of starting over . . .
Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" -
Im getting tired of this (Audigy LS Probl
I recently bought an Audigy LS for my computer, as I needed a 5. sound card for the speakers I bought the day before. Anyways, I get everything installed and set up, and go to play Doom III, and.... it freezes. along with Colin McRae Rally 4. And Far Cry. And unreal Tournament. And just about ANYTHING I do game-related. So I got the updated drivers that CLAIM to fix this, and.... they do nothing. Same games, same freezing problem. Mind you this NEVER happened with any game ever before on this computer, until I installed the sound card. The problem seems to only happen with games that feature EAX as well, as The Sims 2 is about the only game I can play that will not freeze either, as it has no surround support, AFAIK. So, in desperation, last week I sent an e-mail to the creative support team about the matter, and they told me it might be a IRQ conflict, and to try and move the card to another PCI slot. So I move my card to the last PCI slot (A move recommened by alot of people I have seen in various other forums) and.... still Freezing. I know the problem lies with the sound card, and the only two things I haven't tried are:
.) Setting the Assign IRQ to VGA in the BIOS (recommended in the e-mail); my mobo BIOS doesn't have this option, I have looked.
2.) Setting sound acceleration to the last bar on the left (I've done it with the other three spots, and it still freezes). The reason I dont want to do this is simple: it would defeat the purpose of having the card in the first place!
I am getting tired of all the problems I have been having with this card, and would appriciate ANY help at all in solving this problem. I would greatly appriciate it. (maybe.... some updated drivers....too?)
System specs:
AMD Athlon XP 2500+
*ASUS A7n8x (mobo sound IS turned off)
52Mb DDR ram (Kingston)
*Sound Blaster Audigy LS
*GeForce FX 5900XT
Windows XP Professional
*(All drivers for these have been updated to their newest.)hi rellik,
" So I got the updated drivers that CLAIM to fix this, and.... they do nothing."
That would be because ypour problem seems to be something else then what the drivers fix. You have problems in every game or anything game related as you said. This means it is rather a problem with DirectSound3D acceleration. I would suggest you reinstall DirectX. The best would be to get DirectX9.0c to be on the latest, but if you only have 9.0b that`s fine as well.
Also, if your onboard sound is disabled, that`s fine. Just make sure you boot up Windows in Safe Mode and uninstall the drivers for onboard sound if you stil have them there. -

Can smbody please tell me what to do to my iPhone 4s, when playing music or ringer, the sound will just stop without stop it.. I am really getting tired of this...
After updating to iOS6, I lost all sound for apps like YouTube, Netflix, games, and even notifications. The only time sound worked was during a phone call or when the head set was plugged in.
I did a full back up and restore- sound restored but only for a day before the problem returned.
Called Apple Support and was advised to do another restore, but this time restore it as NEW first, then do the restore from back up.
Seemed to do the trick.
Here are the instructions of what I was given- hopefully this will help you too:
Here is a link about backing up your iPhone with iTunes.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
Once you back up your device you will want to restore it.
You will need to have iTunes open on your computer screen.
Please turn your iPhone off.
Press and hold the Home Button.
Continue to hold the Home Button as you plug you iPhone in to the usb cable.
You will want to continue to hold the Home button until you get a screen with the message "device found in recovery mode".
Please follow the prompts and restore device as NEW.
once the restore is done you will have to set up the device and test the sound.
If it works you will then need to restore the device from the back up to restore your user settings.
You can find the instructions how to restore from back up also from the the link I provided. -
Getting tired of iTunes deleting my mp3s...on its own.
I have been an iTunes user for the longest time. However, as my music library grows (17,500 songs/128gb) so does iTunes' ability to keep track of all of it.
Usually, a few times a week I will notice after starting up iTunes, my library shrunk, in the size of usually an album (or about 80mb). I know whats happened, but I just can't fix it as I have a larger library, it would take hours to checklist everything from memory. iTunes has removed an album or two or three, sometimes even an entire artist's discography from the library and in about half the cases, entirely from the hard drive (a WD MyBook 500gb external).
Just this morning, I wanted to listen to the album "Stupid Dream" by Porcupine Tree, alas, it was not there. However a few Porcupine Tree albums were still there. When I go into my music folder to see if iTunes made the brilliant desicion that I clearly did not need those pesky MP3 files to listen to my music, I also noticed three other PT albums were also missing.
Thankfully I found the mp3 files intact in my music folders, however iTunes no longer likes them and wont add them to the library anymore. While every other media player out there plays them with a smile on its face.
Now that iTunes discriminates between mp3 files, I used an mp3 converter (Switch Sound File Converter to be exact) to convert them into exactly the same bitrate, tag info, litterally to my knowlage a carbon copy of all the info iTunes would ever make use of...and OH!!! iTunes now accepts the files as an equal. (does not work by making a copy of the file and importing the copy)
Though this has been going on since last summer as memory serves me, it's becoming more common, almost a daily occurance and I'm getting tired of re-ripping/downloading/converting/deleted file recovery files every time iTunes decides it knows whats best for my listening pleasure.
Things I notice:
-Never deletes a single song, only albums and/or entire artist discographys.
-Doesn't matter what genre, iTunes may discriminate against mp3s that are exactly alike, but it takes a "seperate but equal" stance between my Progressive Rock and Brutal Death Metal.
-If it was something other than iTunes, wouldn't the files remain as missing in iTunes and just deleted from the hard drive? Moreso, why are they just being deleted from the library and not the hard drive in some cases?
-Doesn't matter the source of the music, deleted albums have been from CDs I have purchased and ripped using iTunes, Downloaded, transfered from another device. I have never purchased a single song from the iTunes store that is in my library.
If the files that are being deleted were purchased from iTunes only for Apple's infinite wisom to have them deleted, I would be most likely burning someone's house down instead of posting here.
Thank you for your time and thoughts and a solution may be rewarded with extravagant fruit baskets.
<Edited by Moderator>Honestly, I think something else is the root cause of this. iTunes is too stupid to change tags within MP3s on its own, and clean up your library for you.
WMP can change tags on its own in the background. Make sure the options for getting info from the internet are not enabled on both the privacy and library tabs. Other media software like Zune will also do this. WMP doesn't delete stuff from your itunes library, though.
I've seen several posts from users that Uniblue Speed Up my PC seriously messes with itunes library & files. Sony Vaio Folder Content Watcher constantly deletes the itunes music libray, as well....lots of posts on here about that one.
Since I have no idea what all you have installed on your PC, my general advice is to look for ANYTHING besides itunes that touches your music files and temporarily disable it for a few weeks. It could also be malware doing this.
The suggestion to run your files through MP3 Validator is also a good one. iTunes 8 is real picky about MP3 headers and if you can't add files back into your library, the MP3 headers might be the cause. I have all mine set for v2.3

When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List. -

When Firefox opens here is NO toolbar! But Incredimail shows as something up there, even though I deleted it from my Firefox Home page. I do not want anything to do with Incredimail. How do I correct all of this and get a server that I want?
That file could be set as a Launch Agent or Daemon in your ~/Library or /Library, You could try to look for it or Safeboot your computer and then empty the trash. Safebooting disables Launch Agents/Daemon and Third Party Kernal extensions. Here's the article to Safeboot OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? - Apple Support
