Urgent help with Rented song not transferring to Classic

Hi
Please help. I just purchased a rented movie from itunes but everyone time i try transferring it onto my 120Gb Classic a notice pops up saying "The Ipod cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found."
But i just read the manual and it says rented files should be able to be downloaded onto it.
Anyone have any suggestions of what i should do?
Ta

There likely aren't that many eMac users who have used the CD exchange program for the Tiger 10.4 DVD; you might want to post to the Tiger Installation & Setup forum to reach a broader audience.
(I assume you've tried nudging the optical draawer closed maually to no avail?)

    *URGENT HELP ! Search did not help !*
    I bought my new iPod classic three days ago and until yesterday it worked OK. Every time I plug iPod to my computer I get message "CONNECTED" and I hear that sound in Windows that is saying that something is connected, but almost amidiadly I get the message "EJECTING" and it ejects. I don't see anything in iTunes or My Computer and everything lasts for a few seconds. I reinstalled Windows, so I'm using a fresh copy without any bugs, well if you can call Windows bug free lol USB port to which I'm connecting iPod is 2.0...
    I can't even see iPod in My Computer - Properties - Hardware - Device Manager.. And when I leave this windows on and then connect iPod I can see that "xx Apple iPod" appears for a few seconds...
    I read that people had similar and same problems, but there is for instance no connected device in Device Menager for me to update and even Disk Mode does not work... I also did not read that someone solved this problem...
    Scould I call them and ask them to get another one or what ?
    PLEASE HELP ! And Thank You...

    No I downloaded the fix, but it won't not even install.. I sow that that fix was replaced with a new one, so I subscribed to get that fix, but nothing so far, but I remember installing that fix yesterday and it did not help as well.. I will try to get it to some other computer and restore it without iTunes somehow, but I don't know if this is posible or if it does not work with my PC does not mean it will work on some other

  • Mac 10.8.5 itunes 11.1.1 Sometimes when I drag an album to my desktop the songs fallout of the album leaving me with individual songs not a single album that I  can click to play the whole album.

    Sometimes when I drag an album to my desktop the songs fallout of the album, why? This leaves me with individual songs not a single album icon to click? Can you help me get a consistent single button that I  can click to play a whole album?  [email protected]   mac OS 10.8.5 iTunes OS 11.1.1

    I'm confused. Are you trying to play the album FROM your desktop?

    can i get help with 2 songs that i downloaded on my itunes? it didnt download, said there was an error and then is stuck at PURCHASED.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store. 
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • How burn data CD or DVD with documents/songs not in iTunes Library?

    How do I burn data CD/DVD with items not located in iTunes Library? Prior to the update to iTunes 8.0.2, I could burn Data CDs/DVD from my desktop - these were documents files, and audiobooks/songs not located in iTunes Library. Now I can't get the burn preferences window to show up. Something has changed in the iTunes 8.0.2 update which keeps me from burning anything that is not in iTunes library. Please advise. Thank you.

    Dear Zevoneer,
    As a test, I created a New Burn Folder on the desktop, transferred aliases for music and documents not in iTunes Library, totaling about 2.5GB. I burned all on to a 4.7 GB DVD-R. Everything burned properly and quickly as usual. And each item is an accurate replica of my files.
    Perhaps I was wrong in thinking that a few months ago when I burned non-iTunes Library items, I always got a Burn Preferences Window on my desktop. No matter, it all went well. And I also learned that we now burn songs in iTunes only via the playlist window, where "Burn" brings on the Burn preferences choices.
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards,
    Generosa

  • Urgent help with Pages 5.0 needed

    Hi guys,
    I need urgent help! I deleted Pages 5.0 (as I HATED it) but now can't open a very important document. Can someone please tell me how to reinstall it??
    Thanks
    Kellie

    Downloading again is not as easy as that. you must find the app in the "Purchased" section of the
    app store and I think you then must hold down the option key to reinstall it.
    BTW, I only worked with one document as a trial for Pages 5 and then imported it to Word and saved it. I then deleted Pages 5 (I can't believe anyone who works with software would think that piece of worthless junk would sufice for anyone who uses a word processor professionally), reopened the Word document and saved it in Pages 09.
    I hope this helps

  • Urgent Help with Planning Book

    Hello Gurus,

    Hello Suresh,
    I have one more question for you. Let me tell you my scenario. I have the client giving me a rough forecast for the future. I have to do stat forecast based on the history and check that against the initial forecast given by them. But, the problem I realised now is that when I go to my planning books I can see the values for 2008 in mothly buckets since I have 0calmonth. But the client gave me another file with forecast for 2008 in monthly buckets and for 2009 and 2010 in quarter buckets. So, i have a planning buck profile defined to meet that but, how do I upload the file with both 0calmonth and 0calquarter in a single file. Please let me know!! Urgent task.
    Thanks again,

  • Urgent Help with network access to FileOutputStream

    URGENT HELP NEEDED GUYS...I am stuck on this past 2 days. I tried several alternatives but to vain.
    I am trying to access a Folder on a user's computer which is lying in a different Domain.
    For accessing this folder, I have the following information with me.
    Domain name, PC name, folder name, windows username, windows password.
    Note: This username and password will give me rights to read + write to that folder.
    How to use these information to open a fileoutputstream ? Does the java.io package allow programs to pass a username, password , domainname, pcname and then the folder and filename to create/read/write files..
    Pls. suggest code examples. Sometime back I posted this query but didnt get an answer to my satisfaction. I have tried at my end but unsuccessful yet. Help would be appreciated.
    I am trying this on a Windows File System and Network domain
    THIS IS V. URGENT
    Thanks,

    Hi HJK,
    I am referring to the last reply of yours.
    " Hi, there are three approaches I can think of offhand:
    1) make sure the user-context under which you run the java app has the right to access the remote drive.
    2) Do the network connection in a batch or c program and call that at the start of your java app with Runtime#exec.
    3) Write some c/c++ code to open the connection and integrate that via JNI.
    Let me know what (other) solution you came up with in the end!
    Regarding the 1st.
    I am supposed to write a remote installation utility actually. There are around 200 PC(s) in a network on which I need to copy these java class files. My problem statement is such that at runtime I only have username, passwords, domain access. I am not supposed to map any drives. Its supposed to be done dynamically. No manual intervention required. :(
    How do I do the network connection in a batch mode ? Let me know that?
    If 2nd option can be done, probably I can think of action-3 at the moment I am quite blurr :(

  • Urgent Help! Flash Links not working on PC but fine on Mac??

    I need urgent help as my client is expecting a fully working site this week and i can't seem to understand what the problem is with the site i created www.tuarard.ie. The links such as the link 'download current programme' which is on the splash page works fine on mac but not on pc. there are other various links throughout the the site as well which don't work on pc.
    Could someone please help me fix this problem. i am guessing the flash in fine but that the html is causing the problems. i am a beginner in the world of html so i know very little about it.
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,
    Peter

    I know this is hindsight, and likely more of an opinion-based answer, but except for the original dynamic "opening" of the flash homepage there wasn't anything I saw on the pages other than the scrolling photos at the top that required flash to accomplish. Flash is cool (I use it frequently for sections of a page - banner animations, etc.), but I've found it's often more trouble than it's worth unless every section of you site will feature something amazing or compelling to use it...
    It's not search engine friendly (unless all of your text is linked externally, and even then limited), the correct player needs to be loaded on the viewer's machine to view, and it opens (generally) much slower than a standard html page...
    Having said that - I think the site looks great - and fits the feel of the content, (and worked fine on the mac and windows browsers I tried here...)

  • Songs not transferring - stops in the middle

    I recently restored my iPod to the factory settings after having problems with the 1-10-2006 update. After putting the 6-26-2005 updater back on, I began filling my iPod back up.
    I have 8564 songs in iTunes, but the iPod only had room for 8345 of them and created a separate playlist for these 8345 songs. After it had transferred about 7500 of them, it suddenly stopped (the top of iTunes went to the apple instead of showing the progress bar and how many files had transferred). The iPod continued showing the "Do not disconnect" sign. After waiting ten minutes, I shut down the computer so the "Do no disconnect" sign went away and I could unplug the iPod. I went to look at the 7500 transferred files, and only ONE album actually made it onto it.
    So, what's going on? What did I do wrong? Why is my iPod still kicking my butt after I wiped the 1-10-2006 updater off of it? I'm going on vacation tomorrow and would be devastated if I didn't have my iPod with me.

    I've had this problem with a purchased song but never a ripped song. I think its an encoding problem with iTunes. One poster suggested converting the song, which kind of tells us that its something to do with the encoding. I can't remember the song that this happened with, some Tom Petty tune. But I do remember this, which is strange, this happened on my Touch but not the iPhone with same song.

  • Need urgent help with Ifs1.1 on Solaris

    We have installed IFS 1.1 with Oracle 8.1.7 on a three tier System (two Suns). We use JWS as WebServer. When we start IFS and JWS everything seems to work fine. But after some time (irregulary) we are not able to contact the JSP-Sites via a bowser. After restarting JWS, everything works fine for some time.
    Sometimes it happens (about one times a day), that the whole JWS crashes (JWS-Admin doesn't work). So we have to restart the whole IFS.
    What can be the problem? We need urgent help, because the deadline for our project is Wednesday.
    By the way:
    Where do I have to start CTX on the IFS- or the Oracle-Side?
    null

    Yes, we tried the Oracle HTTP - Server, but we weren4t able to get it to work. We didn4t get our JSP-Files to work with it. But that is another issue. I think it4s not a problem of JWS, but IFS.
    Additionally it is strange, that we are still able to connect to the database via SqlPlus.
    IFS works fine for about 15 minutes, than it crashes, nothing works anymore. We found following errors in the IfsAgents.log:
    maybe it can help?!

  • Need Urgent Help with Apache and PHP

    I have been struggling with apache and php for a week now and I finally broke down to post a message.
    I have apache 1.3 running on my mac mini g4 with 10.4.9 and I installed sql. I went to the entropy website and downloaded php5 to install without knowing I already had php4 on the machine. I installed 5 but could not get it to work. I then went back to httpd.conf and tried to install php4 by uncommenting out the loadmodule and addmodule lines. I restarted apache but php still did not work. I tested the phpinfo.php script but all I got was the script in Safari and not the actual page. At the moment, I have php4 and php5 on my machine but can't get either one to work. I am sure there is an easy fix but I don't know it. Please help.

    The problem is not terribly complicated, but Apache will not start with the entropy file in the folder
    /etc/httpd/users/
    Let me experiment on you. Rename the entropy file and then try to start Apache. To do this, open Terminal and paste this command:
    <pre>sudo mv /etc/httpd/users/+entropy.conf /etc/httpd/users/+entropy<pre>
    Now check the Apache configuration:
    <pre>apachectl configtest<pre>
    If it says "Syntax OK", start Apache:
    <pre>sudo apachectl start<pre>
    Since we only disabled the entropy file, you should be able to enable PHP5 with some more advanced configuring.

  • Need some URGENT help with 3 DVD mastering issues PLEASE! :

    Hi there,
    Firstly, I am running DVD SP 3.0.2 on Mac OS 10.4.7 on a G5 Dual 2 GHz 3Gb Ram plenty of HD space...
    I am creating a DVD with: An intro sequence, a main menu, 4 sub menus, and 4 sections with around 12 chapters each.
    I am having some big problems, and a pretty stuck. I will lest them separately below, numbered. If you are able to help, please refer clearly to which number you are helping with. Any help is MUCH appreciated! Many thanks!!
    1. Each of the 5 menus (1 main, 4 sub) have a background video, and a separate audio track. I added the background videos by simply dragging them to the assests panel, then from there onto the menu editor window. They are created in FCP and are properly encoded. However, when I click the motion button, or use the simulator, the videos do not show up. The music plays, but all i see is plain black.
    What is going on?!?!?!
    2. I am really struggling with rollover buttons. I have custom created buttons, and I wand them to have a soft red glow around them when hovered over. HOW ON EARTH DO I ACTUALLY DO THIS??
    The buttons are in photoshop so can be exported with/without background/glow in any format.
    3. Is it possible, once I have got the above rollover working, to have an image to the right hand side of my buttons which changes with the the button rollover. i.e. hover over button 1, see image 1. hover over button 2, image changes to image 2.
    PLEASE PLEASE give any help you can, I have a deadline coming up and am quite stumped. Thanks again!!

    I am still having problems regarding issue Number 1. PLEASE ANYONE HELP?!
    Sorry, I'm not sure about the motion menus. I avoid those whenever possible. But you might click on the menu in the storyline tab (whatever it's called -- the hierarchical view with the disc, tracks, slideshows, etc.) and look at the properties and see if there's anything you have to enable specifically for motion. And be sure the motion button is on on the main display/preview area, but it sounds like you already know how that works.
    For your information, here is a screen grab of the menu I am trying to create:
    http://www.redhavoc.co.uk/stuff/menu.jpg
    I think it is obvious that when a button is hovered over, I want it to glow red, and the image to the right will change to match the respective button.
    IS THIS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE????
    Yes.
    First, your menus have to be layered menus. Unfortunately, there's no way to convert non-layered menus to layered menus, so if you already have non-layered, you'll have to just delete them and create new layered menus. The button (and menu item) to create a layered menu should be right by the normal new-menu item.
    Next, the graphical work is all in Photoshop.
    Side tip: You may already know this, but I found it's best to use 640x480 for the Photoshop document. When I do text and leave it as a text object in the Photoshop file, it resizes poorly in DVDSP. So this ends up being another 720x480 vs. 640x480 square/rectangular pixel conversion thing. DVDSP plays in the 640x480 world, at least as far as the designer can see. So I keep my images at 640x480, and it doesn't have to resize, and everything looks right.
    Moving on... Set up your basic background, the part that won't change (or will have other things covering it, like for your square image).
    Then put in all the buttons and images you'll be using, each part in a separate layer. This could have fifteen buttons (you have five buttons, and there can be three versions for each -- inactive, selected, and activated versions) and five or six square images (you said one for each button, and you might want a blank default if, say, you want to add a "back" button on the menu and want some blank or default image for the square when they're on the "back" button).
    Sometimes people don't bother with a separate "active" button state, but you usually want some visual feedback that they clicked the button. Also, I usually just build the default (unselected) button into the background; that's less hassle later on, and it will just draw the selected or activated buttons over that when the user is on that button.
    Line up all your buttons and images. All the square images lined up perfectly on top of each other, all the buttons in the right places (so you'll have three buttons stacked on top of each other in each spot). Give each layer a short but quickly recognizable name, and line them up in a consistent order. (button1-default, button1-selected, button1-active, button1-squarepicture, then button2-default, ... etc.) Photoshop and DVDSP don't care, but it makes it easier for you later.
    Note that earlier versions of DVDSP won't show Photoshop layer effects. (They handle layers, just not the effects, like inner glow, outer bezel, etc.) I don't remember when they changed this, but I think it was version 4.something. So if you're using that method to make your buttons glow, you may have to flatten each selected or active button layer, and you may even need to create a dummy blank layer underneath it first to give it something to flatten onto.
    Save the file as a standard Photoshop file (.psd). Drag the file onto your DVDSP layered menu and set it as the background.
    Now, in DVDSP, create all your buttons. Just drag boxes over/around the button pictures you have. Feel free to make them extra-big; users won't see the actual area you've selected, and bigger areas makes it easier for people to hit them if they're using a mouse on a computer to watch the DVD. You can point the buttons to their targets now if you want, and set the end jumps on the tracks if you want. (I tend to set the end jumps on the tracks so they automatically select the button for the next track.)
    Now's the fun part, since it will actually hook everything up and should be easy if your naming layer order were consistent. Click on the layered menu (in that hierarchical view) and look at the properties window. (Sorry I can't remember the technical names for all these windows; I'm doing this all from memory. So feel free to ask more questions if you can't find what I'm talking about.) One of the properties tabs should have a grid of checkboxes with a list of your layers. Make sure the background is checked for all of the states. Then check the layers you want to show for each button state, as well as the corresponding square image to show for each.
    Again, I'm doing this from memory, and I can't remember exactly how things are listed in that grid. But I remember it keeps your layers in the same order you put them in the Photoshop file and shows you those names, so it should make it easy to go down the list and check the right boxes.
    And another side tip: You can update the Photoshop file, but once you've put it in DVDSP, if you change the layer order, it will screw up the check boxes you checked. It always shows you the layer names correctly, but it keeps the checkboxes in DVDSP simply assigned to the layer number, so the fifth layer will keep the same checkboxes even if you juggle them so some other layer is now the fifth layer. So if you do juggle the layers in Photoshop, go back and fix the checkbox list in DVDSP.
    I put a sample Photoshop file based on yours in
    http://dan.black.org/layered-menu-sample.psd
    It's quick and dirty, but shows the layer layout, and you should be able to drop it on DVDSP to play with. (I also won't leave it there forever, maybe a few weeks, so anybody reading this in a month or more probably will get a 404 for that url.)
    Again, doing this from memory, so feel free to ask if anything doesn't work or doesn't make sense.
