TS1393 I cannot eject my iPod using either itunes or the eject button on bottom tool bar beacuse it says something is in use by another application or "The device 'generic volume' cannot be stopped because a program is still accessing it" Synced new iPad
How can I eject my ipod when neither itunes not the "safe to eject" button will allow it. Itunes says "...cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application." The safe to eject button says "The device 'generic volume' cannot be stopped because a program is still accessing it." The has never happened before. The only thing new is that I added an iPad yesterday. Thanks.
Go to your computer's System Tray and try ejecting. If you can't eject, there is an application that is trying to access your iPod.
Go to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx and download ProcessExplorer.
Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555665 and follow the instructions under Resolution.
Note that this is a good, general process any time you can't access any file.
In my case an update to RealPlayer installed a program called RecordingManager that was accessing my iPod.

Downloaded Mt Lion Yesterday and my Tool bar has disappeared. I can still access the individual tools but cannot see my header. I used 'help' and did what it suggested. slected 'hide tool bar' and then 'show toolbar'. I also restarted etc.
Good point BDAqua, the Escape key helps get me back to reality in Lion.
While I've only dabbled around a little in Lion since it's release (I upgraded a 10.6 Clone to Lion on one of my FireWire Drives) now I'm currently downloading Mountain Lion (to upgrade a Clone of that Lion Clone) so that now I can continue to move forward in madness.
P.S. Trust me, I'm not laughing. -

My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?
first try:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
next
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
My Iphone 4s just stopped during the latest update and now the screen show the Apple icon and an white bar beneath. I can no longer get anything to work on the phone!! Where to from here??

I downloaded a new version of Norton 360 on 10/28/2012 and a couple of days later, I am unable to see the buttons I added to customize my Firefox tool bar. Norton says it is a Firefox issue. I have tried resetting Firefox and reapplying the buttons on the toolbar, but they still don't show up until I click on View|Toolbars|customize. I just want to be able to to see the "Print" "Zoom" and "Home" buttons every time I open Firefox. I have Firefox version 16.0.2 which Norton told me was downloaded to my computer 2 days ago. I guess this must be done automatically, because I didn't download a new Firefox version.
You can try click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window to restore the default toolbar set up.

I have Lightroom 4.2 which isn't opening in Windows 7. A message comes up saying it's already open in another application; I can't see that it is. I've been using this successfully for 2 years now! I've tried shutting down and restarting; still not opening.
Found it and deleted!! Success! Thank you!

I have run a Hebrew calendar that sits in the bottom tool bar. I have used this calendar and rely on it, but your Firefox 5 update has removed the bottom tool bar and I want my Hebrew calendar restored. What good is updating a piece of software that works by creating something that does not work? I will stop using and stop recommending my end users to switch to Firefox if you keep removing parts that are needed.
I am help desk support for a large federal government agency and until you broke Firefox with this latest update, I would suggest that my users switch to Firefox, but unless this bug is fixed I will stop doing that.Does the Add-on Bar have a check-mark?

before downloading the latest version of I-Tunes, I used to be able to view the ALBUM ARTWORK at bottom left when clicking on a song.
I am now unable to see the artwork.
Is it no longer possible with the updated software ??Correct, Apple have removed that feature. However, you can still see the artwork of the song that's playing; it's shown in the Now Playing indicator at the top of the iTunes window. It is small, but if you click on it, a larger version pops up.
Also, in Albums View, you can see the album artwork. -
Updated itunes - windows quickly shuts it down and says something about "Data Execution Prevention". I followed the instrucxtions to a dead end. I have re downloaded it twice and used the repair files once but get the same result. It worked fine before I updated it to death.
Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

It is used iphone 5 , ios 7 , no other information. May be i can do something with developer account ? another way?
That's the entire point of the update. To prevent unauthorized activation of an iPhone. To discourage Theft.
If there was a way around it, it would defeat its purpose.
The only way to get past that is to contact the original owner and ask that they remove the lock with their Apple ID. -
After updating to iOS7 I am trying to log in the Game Center with my user ID and it says that is in use and I need to enter another one?

I cannot see my iPod in my iTunes or in Computer
I am running Windows 7 on a Toshiba Satellite L650 - 0DM (which was purchased March 2011, and had repair work done on it from November 2011 to January 2012). When I first got my laptop, my computer and iTunes both recognized my iPod (iPod nano 5th gen), but for the past few months it has not. If I have my iPod plugged in before I start iTunes, my laptop will not open iTunes until I unplug my iPod. My laptop will also not shut down if my iPod is plugged in, and will only shut down if I unplug it. It will recognize that my iPod is plugged in and connected but in Computer, it does not show up. The iPod is recognized in Device Manager. If I try to safely eject my iPod, it tells me that other programs are using it, even though everything is shut down. This also happens with my flash drives, but my flash drives are working properly and are recognized in Computer. I know that it is not a problem with my USB cord or iPod because it works fine in my XP desktop. This problem is also happening with my brand-new iPod Classic, which I have not put anything on yet. I have used the original cords with both iPods and it still does not work. Other things I have tried to do that have showed no success:
Restart computer
Uninstall/reinstall iTunes and all Apple programs
Renaming for a higher drive (Other drives aren't in E: drive)
Stopping the 2 high-speed USB ports on my laptop and re-enabling them (they are the only two USB ports I have)
Putting iPod into disk mode
Putting anti-virus programs on my computer and doing a full-scan
Disk defragment
Deleting Temp folder (I have stopped all programs on my laptop and it still won't let me)
Stopped iTunes/Apple services and re-enabled them
Updating Driver Software
The only thing that I haven't tried is updating the BIOS, which seems like extreme measures and I don't want to do it unless I absolutely have to.
I am incredibly frustrated and ready to throw out my laptop and two iPods at any given moment, so please help!Try this:
Plug in your iPod,
1. Right click My Computer >> Manage and select Device Manager in the left tab.
2. Click Portable Devices >> right click Apple iPod >> Uninstall
3. Unplug and plug your iPod, now wait for windows to re recognize your ipod [ In Device Manager, you will see the new recognized Apple Ipod ]
4. Press F5 to refresh your windows explorer and see if your Apple iPod will show up with a camera icon.
Otherwise, refer to these articles:

I cannot connect my iPod touch to iTunes
There are several factors preventing me from connecting my sister's iPod Touch to iTunes on my computer (the same one I used to set up her iPod):
1. The sleep/wake button is jammed, or just doesn't work. The button ITSELF feels fine. It pushes down with a "click" feel, like all of the other devices I use, but nothing happens. It fails to turn off or turn on the iPod; it's a dud. I think this is the main issue. She's had a problem turning it off, lately. Since this is an ipod 3, I highly doubt the warranty is still active, and isn't worth getting Apple involved.
2. She was sleepy when she set her passcode and punched in the wrong numbers (which I don't understand, since it asks you to re-enter the password before it is accepted). Unfortunately, as a theft deterrent, each time a password is incorrectly submitted, the wait time to re-enter becomes longer and longer until the device is disabled. Now it shows the message, "IPOD IS DISABLED connect to iTunes".
3. Connecting to itunes brings up a message in iTunes: "ITunes could not connect to iPod "iPod Touch" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod Touch before it can be used with iTunes."
I Googled the "iTunes could not connect..." message, which gave instructions to restart the iPod with the sleepwake/homebutton trick, but that can't be successfully accomplished with a broken sleepwake button.
I Googled "broken sleep/wake button", but that gave instructions to restore the iPod in iTunes, but it won't connect in iTunes without the passcode correctly entered in the iPod.
I Googled "Wrong password", but that gave instructions to restore the iPod in iTunes. [sigh!]
I asked my sister if she had a wobbly table or chair with one leg shorter than the rest, and she said she did. I told her to place the iPod under the short leg. She asked, "How is that going to fix my iPod?" I replied, "It isn't. But it will fix your table." Took her a few seconds to realize that it was all her iPod was good for.
I don't want to resort to the wobbly table fix just yet. I thought if there was going to be a way to fix this without reaching out to the Apple store (which would probably only be able to sell her a new iPod), this would be the place to find the answer...a place where most genius iDevice users would hang out to help other users.
Any suggestions?FIXED IT!!!!!
Ok, here's one of the problems I was having (among the others listed above): I kept getting the message that I had to enter my passcode in the iPod. I searched for solutions and came across one that said I had to close down iTunes first, before plugging in the iPod, so I did that.
Lo and Behold, the USB symbol appeared on the iPod when I plugged it in without opening iTunes.
I opened iTunes, and Lo and Behold again, the iTunes showed the ipod on the side and the message popped up that said it was in restore mode. I selected "Restore and download new updates".
I was good to go, right?
WRONG!!!
Every few minutes into the download, I would STILL get a message saying that I had to enter iPod's passcode, and the iPod would return to the dreaded "disabled" screen! I tried it several times, with no success.
THEN I noticed that even though the iPod was unplugged from iTunes, the update continued to download.
SO...
I waited until the update had seconds left to be completely downloaded. Then I reduced (not minimized) iTune's window and clicked on the desktop background. I plugged in the iPod, which again showed the USB symbal. I maximized the iTunes window, and the message appeared as usual saying the iPod was in restore mode. I selected the "restore and download" button, but THIS time, it didn't have enough time to reject the iPod. Within seconds, the download was complete, and the restoration continued as normal (for other iPods, anyway). I held my breath the whole way, but it's GOOD AS NEW! By "Good as new", I mean her ipod has no apps or music. She'll have to reinstall all that, but they're paid for. Not sure about the music, which was her main concern, but even if she had to buy all that all over again, it's still much cheaper than buying a new iPod.
Guess she'll have to find something else to level her table.
:::::EDIT::::
I'm sorry, planb77, I didn't see your last post. I forgot to reload. But thank you for your help.
By the way, the sleep/wake button still doesn't work right, but she can select to have the ipod shut down after X amount of minutes. The only thing she'll have a problem with is turning the iPod off all the way (which she never does, anyway...who does?), and take screen shots.

From the day one the response is that (cannot able to determine the location) while using ios5.1 .What can i need to do to see my location in maps and other application even the location services is enabled in the settings?.Which means that is there is any problem in my ipad ? currently running on IOS 6.
Your location is determined from a location database which contains the MAC addresses of routers and their physical location. A MAC address is a unique number which is built-in to all network devices when manufactured. The database is built and updated by actually driving around and mapping router locations.
Since you just moved the location of your router has not been updated in the database and when you use Maps you will see your old location.
If you go outside your house you can be correctly located because your iPod sees other routers which are in the location database. Note that you do not need to be connected to a router for your iPod to see it and obtain its MAC address.
