Updating software but not syncing

If I upgrade my software to 3.0 a week from now, but not from my own computer, will I lose all my music and such. I'm asking because I won't be near my personal computer for a while but would like to have 3.0 on my phone to have the various benefits. Is it posible to do the upgrade without syncing the music files?

I would wait until you have access to your own computer in case something goes wrong.

Update software but not syncing

Is there a way to update the firmware to 3.0 without syncing. My sister is visiting and her computer usb is not fast enough to upgrade firmware. Is there a way I can use itunes on my pc that doesn't already have a phone synced to it to just upgrade the firmare and leave the sync part of the phone untouched.

just create another new user account on your computer with admin priviledges and start up itunes as a new user, click the check for upgrades button. Firmware will instal only and cannot sync as it is a "new" phone

Then your iOS must be earlier than 5, which is when over the air updating became possible. You will have to update it by plugging into a computer running an up to date copy of iTunes, and update it from iTunes.

The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do?

The front camera on my iPod touch 4th generation is frozen. I cannot use it. Updating software does not help. This started right after I bought it, new from BestBuy. What can I do? When i go to the camera, it is stuck on a black screen. the only way to use my camera is through other camera apps, but if I try to switch it to the front camera, it freezes again.

If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required. You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

They need to be registered under different Apple ID's. The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up. If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset. Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device. You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before. Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

On iPod Touch, how can I view calendars but not sync them?

I have thirteen years of calendar events in iCal on my desktop Mac, dating back to year 2000, divided between three calendars. A quite large amount of calendar data, admittedly. I sync to my iPod Touch via iCloud. Problem is that, if I select "Sync All Events" in the Settings of the iPod, my iPod apparently constantly is trying to sync thirteen years, resulting in unbearably slow performance, with intolerably long lag before calendars "sync" and before new entries resolve.
Of course, if I select the alternative iPod Calendar Setting "Sync Events Six Months Back", my iPod performs swiftly, efficiently... after all, it's not like I'm editing old events from years ago. However, by doing so, events older than 6 months cannot be viewed on the iPod Touch.
I suppose most people aren't concerned with preserving older calendar events in a viewable form, but I have need to do so on my iPod Touch. I don't need to spend unbelievable amount of waiting time while my iPod processes (i.e., "syncs") all my old calendar events ; I simply wish to be able to see the darn things! So, how do I maintain fast performance AND ability to view all my calendar events quickly?
I hope this makes sense. If anyone has an idea how I can achieve this, I will be greatly appreciative. Obviously, on my desktop Mac I have no problem viewing any date in iCal that I choose to view. On my iPod, though, can I set up separate calendar in which I can store but not sync the older calendar stuff? Or, do I need some separate app to preserve and view my older calendars?
Thanks.

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). How do I fix it?

My Mac Mini will charge - but not sync with - USB-connected devices (ipod, camera, memory card reader). I have tried unplugging the devices, restarting the computer, selectively unplugging and plugging in the devices, closing and opening the relevant applications (iTunes, iPhoto, etc). I have tried using different USB cables.
It's like all of a sudden the synching service stopped functioning or recognizing these devices for some reason. The other ports work just fine (monitor).
The only USB-connected external device that appears to be unaffected is the USB SuperDrive and it works on all the USB ports into which I plug it.
How do I fix this?

Open Console in Applications>Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens or doesn't happen.

These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

For some reason my QuickTime player has stopped playing all my .avi movies, I can't seem to upgrade and it doesn't offer any solutions except that it may need additional software but not what or where to obtain it from? Help most of my movie are in .avi!!

Google 'Perian' and 'Flip4Mac' — these are the extensions that will make QT play other file formats.
However, a simpler solution is just to abandon QT in favour of the free, open-source player VLC, which plays just about everything natively without further downloads.
Download the free VLC Player from here:
http://www.videolan.org
Plays just about everything, including avi & mpg, without add ons.

TableView Context Menu Item shows up when run on Java 8 until update 5 but not on later ones

The code below runs as its name says on Java 8 update 5 but not on later ones:
public class TableViewShowingOnlyAnAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseDeleteIsIncluded extends Application {
    private final TableView<Name> table = new TableView<>();
    private final ObservableList<Name> data = FXCollections.observableArrayList(new Name("Jacob"),
            new Name("Isabella"), new Name("Ethan"), new Name("Emma"), new Name("Michael"));
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) {
        TableColumn<Name, String> column = new TableColumn<>("Name");
        column.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>("name"));
        table.getColumns().add(column);
        table.setItems(data);
        ContextMenu contextMenu = new ContextMenu();
        contextMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("append"));
        table.setContextMenu(contextMenu);
        table.setRowFactory(tableView -> {
            TableRow<Name> row = new TableRow<>();
            row.contextMenuProperty().bind(
                    Bindings.when(Bindings.isNotNull(row.itemProperty()))
                            .then(showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete())
                            .otherwise((ContextMenu) null));
            return row;
        Scene scene = new Scene(table);
        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();
    private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
        ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
        ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
        if (tableMenu != null)
            rowMenu.getItems().addAll(tableMenu.getItems());
        rowMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("delete"));
        return rowMenu;
    public static class Name {
        private final SimpleStringProperty name;
        private Name(String name) {
            this.name = new SimpleStringProperty(name);
        public String getName() {
            return name.get();
        public void setName(String name) {
            this.name.set(name);
Can help me find the error in the code? Or if there is none, is this a regression that should be submitted? As of now, all the PCs in use have 8u5.
Thanks in advance.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28195552/javafx-tableview-context-menu-item-shows-up-when-run-on-java-8-until-update-5-bu
pasted below:
The fix is to create new menu items that are copies of the ones in the table's context menu:
private ContextMenu showOnlyAppendContextMenuItemIfRowIsEmptyElseIncludeDelete() {
ContextMenu rowMenu = new ContextMenu();
ContextMenu tableMenu = table.getContextMenu();
if (tableMenu != null) {
for (MenuItem item : tableMenu.getItems()) {
MenuItem rowItem = new MenuItem(item.getText());
rowItem.setGraphic(item.getGraphic());
rowItem.setOnAction(item.getOnAction());
rowMenu.getItems().add(rowItem);
rowMenu.getItems().add(new MenuItem("delete"));
return rowMenu;
