  • Can't restore iPod and the music I had has disappeared

    My iPod 20 Go wasn't functioning very well, it often played fragments of songs and often skipped songs. And now all the music I had on my iPod has disappeared, iTunes doesn't reconise the iPod and I can't restore it. The iPod seems to be working correctly but the music is not there. In explorer I can see my iPod which seems to be working correctly, I can even open the disc manually and I found that the music that was there hasn't been deleted even if the iPod's settings say that all the 20Go are still free.
    What should I do?

    You could try a format of the iPod in Windows. A full format does a check and remap of bad sectors on the iPod hard drive, and you would need to restore the iPod as normal (using the iPod updater) afterward. This can also work when the iPod is recognized by the computer, but not by the updater.
    First, put the iPod into forced disk mode.
    See: How to put the iPod into disk mode.
    On your PC, go "my computer" and right click on the iPod, then choose "format". Ensure the settings are at "default" and that "quick format" is not checked. Now select "format". It will take a while, but when that's finished, restore the iPod using the updater.
    If you need to, reset the iPod to exit disk mode.
    You can also check the iPod's hard drive for errors using Windows ScanDisk.
    Put the iPod into disk mode as previously mentioned. Go to "my computer" and right click on the iPod then select "properties", then "tools". Select the option to scan the disk for any errors.
    To exit forced disk mode, reset the iPod.

    Hello can someone please help? Trying to restore ipod and I keep on getting error message: The IPod software update server could not be contacted. The network connection was reset. Make sure your network is active and try again.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers

  • How to restore views and procedures after drop user command?

    How to restore views and procedures after drop user command?
    We have 817 EE on NT and one developer created a lot of procedures, functions and vews. DB was not backuped and archived and export has not been done - our fault and we understand it. Sorry for this.
    Ok, now the story: another developer dropped this db user and we lost everything: procedures, functions and vews. The new user with trhe same name was created and new schema was imported in this user, but all old objects are lost. We don't have export and backup and archive log files.
    Question: may we can restore this lost stuff from some other sources. We are looking for lost codes, not data. May be we can use redo logs or shared pool or any other things. Any idea will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The switch has occurred after user was dropped, the data has been overwritten and there is be no way to use redo log files.
    I would like to explore another opportunity. Is possible to use Shared Pool or any Data Dictionary internal information to restore texts of the lost SQL and PL/SQL scripts executed in this DB before user was dropped? Not too many scripts are executed in this DB and the lost ones may still be in stack. I remember that Shared Pool (cash) should keep last executed scripts in order to improve performance. They probably are kept in some special format. Can we restore these scripts? Of course they also might be pushed out by Import that had been done after user was dropped.
    Thanks for your help,
    Victor

  • How to to detect and prevent hidden objects in AD

    in a Delegated OU, if OU owner removes the permission of Domain Admins and sets a Deny permission for Domain Admins, he can create hidden sub-ous, which are not visible for Domain administrators. How to detect those and prevent ?

    If you can't trust someone, don't give them the permissions.  Part of the delegation of control of anything, not just Directory Services is the reliance on the ability to manage there work space responsibly.  You can't stop someone from setting
    the permissions as you state other than to not give them the ability to change the permissions on the root object itself, which can be easily done and is what we do.  Not because we don't trust them, but we try to prevent someone from hurting themselves
    accidentally.
    So just go to the OU in question and change the permissions on the parent only and take away full control.  As a matter of I would recommend that you remove all rights with the exception of read.  Just grant full control to all siblings of the
    OU.

  • Updated Ipod 4th Gen to IOS 6 but now Itunes tells me to restore Ipod and that data could be lost should i restore, it will not let me do anything until i restore

    I have an Ipod 4th Generation just now updated to IOS 6 thru Itunes, says update complete but now it tells me to restore the Ipod and data would be lost. I can not do anything till I restore Ipod and I am worried about losing games, music and other apps. Do I restore Ipod and will I lose games and music?

    Do you have a current backup of the content of your iPod? If not restoring will remove Apps and their data. The Apps can be replaced at no charge but the data will be lost.

    i lost my ipod and my music was not sinced to the computer. is there anyway to get it back, its not on my purchased on itunes. On my new iphone it shows up in the purchased but when i click it it just plays part of the song from itunes

    Depending on which country that you are in you might be able to re-download purchases from Apple : re-downloading. Otherwise, have you not got a backup on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto your new computer ?
