Very weird 64 bit problem

Initially I was running 2.4 in 64 bit mode on my Mac. Everything worked perfectly for a week or so. Then today, after messing about in the Web Module, I am not able to type in text fields. No characters appear even though if I'm outside of LR the keyboard is working perfectly. It recognises arrows presses and if I select text and hit a key it deletes the text but doesn't replace it with the letter I pressed.
If I then go into 32 bit mode it works with no problems. I've tried rebooting the machine but no matter what I do if I go into 64 bit mode I can no longer type text in the fields.
Any suggestions pls?

Sorry I can't be of any help, but I also have similar problems. I also have the mouse scroll preference problem, applications which were removed from the dock which reappear, sidebar items which won't go away or can't be set to appear(Finder Preferences check boxes), and  desktop background settings which won't hold. These are actually not on my account, but for other users on the same computer. Removing preference files from ~/Library doesn't seem to fix it as it comes back.
I thought it might me related to Parental controls, but I'm not sure yet.

  • Very weird font problem

    I have a very weird and annoying font problem with the left menu bar of iTunes 8.2(23)
    Some but not all menu items are displayed like a mix of Hebrew and unprintable caracters.
    But once the menu item is selected, the font is back to normal !
    The weired thing is that TV Series and Shopping cart menu items are displayed (in French, because the interface is in French) as expected.
    I don't know if it is related, but I have Russian-PC keyboard installed too, Adobe CS4 (which installed Adobe fonts) and my OS interface is in French.

    How did you go about finding this Lucida Grande.ttf? I did a search and didn't find it. I have the same weird font thing in itunes. I recently installed a whack of fonts from another computer. Any help would be appreciated.

  • HELP ME! My computer is posessed! Very weird power problem!!!!

    I am using an iMac - first generation of intel-based iMacs - and I have a very weird powering-on and powering-off problem.
    When I plug my iMac into the wall socket, it starts up on it's own. When I shut it down (using BOTH the apple menu OR the power button), it starts itself right back up. When I put it to sleep, it goes to sleep and then wakes up immediately. It does restart normally, though, so it seems that my iMac simply has a problem with being OFF!
    Help meh! I'd like to save a trip to the Apple Store if I can help it!

    It will do that if the box *☐ Start automatically after a power failure* on the Energy Saver preference panel is checked.

    If the SMC and Energy Saver Preference changes do not cure these problems, then you will need to seek service help.

  • Very weird monitor problem, betcha can't solve this one.

      OK I have a MacBook Pro 2.4GHz with 4GB of Ram, it's fully up to date with Lion, and is connected to a Formac W2300-1U 23 inch TFT Monitor (DVI, VGA, 1920 x1080, 1000:1, 5ms, 400cd/m²) through a HDMI to Mini port adaptor.
    Now, the problem is the monitor flicks off, then on, at first I thought it was just randomly, but today I isolated the problem to something specific that make it happen. When I open the preference panel, and click on 'Trackpad' as soon as the video demo starts to play the monitor switches off then on.
    It's totally weird, what on earth could be causing this? Any ideas?

    ok well i have no idea what happened. i started out again with a fresh installation of JBoss, and it worked. no clue as to what was wrong. musta been some JAR that was out of place or something.
    thank you for your help!

  • Very weird internet problem :I

    Hi everyone, I am calling for all the experts because I have spent my last two days resolving this problem without any success.
    I moved to a new location Saturday where I set up my Airport Extreme to provide a wifi network. The extreme is connected to the ISP's modem in Bridge mode. ISP modem address is 192.168.1.254. My Macbook gets usually the 192.168.1.4 IP address, DHCP is the 192.168.1.254. I have in this network my MacBook and the wife's Vista on a desktop PC. MacBook is up-to-date with 10.5.8. (Or, better to say, that was the starting system version)
    What I experience is, that some of the websites are working in my MacBook (meaning they are loading in), while some not. That means white page, no content at all, loading goes forever. For example youtube does not come in. Adobe does not come in. Apple.com works. I couldn't find any pattern why a site can't load.
    Safari and Firefox makes the same, so it is probably not a Safari bug.
    The machine with Vista (on the same network) works with every webpage (using Firefox). I didn't had this problem on the old location.
    I did the followings:
    - I took my MacBook back to the old location, where the old network I used for years still works. Same problem. Never had this before. Then a got back to the new location.
    - I connected the MacBook via cable to the Extreme (Aiport in MacBook disabled), same problem.
    - I created a new user, nothing.
    - I created a new network location, nothing.
    - Reset Safari, nothing
    - Tested browser capablities in various sites. I had some which were not loading at all, but the ones that worked gave back a good result, meaning every plug-in worked.
    - Reset modem, reset Airport Extreme, nothing
    - Changed wifi channel (from 6 to 4), nothing. I live in a village, no wifi pollution anyway.
    - Deleted Safari and System cache, nothing
    - Verified Disk permissions, some problems were found, repaired them, nothing.
    - With the help of apple support I deleted some System configuration files which were automatically generated by new start, nothing
    - I did a complete archive and install
    - I tried out everything without an update (that means 10.5 and Safari 3.0.4), almost the same.I had some pages which were working after 2-3 min waiting, but with youtube for example I get some weird, almost only text content with small pictures and no video. After 2-3 min wait of course. And a message, that java is old. Hit the link, went to Adobe, slowly loading but I couldn't download the .dmg, Safari says network error, server could not be found.
    - The I did an update (through Software Update, bandwith was O.K). System 10.5.8, newest Safari, the same problem that I had before archive and install. Youtube won't load at all.
    - Then I did a complete new install with erase. Nothing, problem stays!
    So, now I am sitting in front of a brand new installed MacBook with 10.5 (no updates yet after installation) and I really don't know what to do now. The problem seems to be not software related. The problem seems to be not network related (Vista works on the same network). Can this be a hardware problem? I really can't imagine it...

    I did talked to the ISP and got the access codes to the ISP router. It's a WLAN broadband router, by operating mode I see the following option checked:
    Wireless ISP: In this mode, all ethernet ports are bridged together and the wireless client will connect to ISP access point. The NAT is enabled and PCs in ethernet ports share the same IP to ISP through wireless LAN. You must set the wireless to client mode first and connect to the ISP AP in Site-Survey page. The connection type can be setup in WAN page by using PPPOE, DHCP client, PPTP client or static IP.
    So, would it mean, that if I connect my Extreme in bridge mode, than I do not have double NAT and that is the correct way of connection?
    To clarify the situation, I have a microwave antenna and that is connected to the ISP router. Then a LAN port of the ISP router is connected to the WAN port of the Extreme. (I did try to connect it to a LAN port of the Extreme, everything was the same).

  • VERY WEIRD MIC PROBLEM! After latest upgrade(23.4.A.0.546) Z2

    Hi Guys, I've upgraded my phone to 23.4.A.0.546. After this upgrade i had problems with microphone on calls. Btw, every other apps using mic is ok. Here are the cases that mic does not work or work.    It's very annoying. Any ideas?    

    Sergio, I believe you have no other alternative but to wipe all data and start from stretch. Do you have any 3rd party apps that are not from Play Store? Most of the time they are the ones giving you problem. Try transferring their apk to cloud, delete them before updating. Than put them back if you need them after completing the repair.

  • Very weird font problem which appeared suddenly

    I have no idea how to describe the problem as I am no native speaker. The following screenshot shows the problem, it has yet only occured within Firefox:
    http://i.imgur.com/zNegO.png
    The circled slash should be either fi, fl, or ff (like I have indicated)... as I am typing these examples they also appear as these things, they are not exactly the same btw (also I hope they are coming out regulary for you, otherwise reference the screenshot).
    What caused this and how can i fix (there it is again, when typing f-i-x) it? Thank you.

  • VERY weird iPod problems...Please Help!

    Okay, folks, do I have a doozy of a problem here.
    Okay, first off, when I connected my iPod to the computer a week or so ago, it told me that there was a firmware update, so I downloaded it and installed it. That is where my problems began. Soon after, the iPod began to freeze a lot while playing songs. I would reset it, but it would continue to freeze while playing songs.
    Next, I turned the iPod on yesterday after having not used it for 2 or 3 days and when it came on, ALL of my songs were gone. It said that there were ZERO songs on the iPod. But the kicker is that it still said that I had the same available space as when I had 3500 or so songs on it. (Don't worry, I have back-ups of those songs, so I didn't lose them).
    So, I figured that I would try to reformat the iPod and maybe then things would start to work. That doesn't happen. When I try to run the updater (with or without the iPod initially connected via Firewire), it just sits there on "Initializing...." and freezes.
    So I then figured that maybe I should just try to run the software that came with the iPod and maybe that would help. Well, last night I ran the software and after running through the entire line that lights up on "Waiting for iPod" 4 or 5 times, it told me that the iPod needed to be formatted. So I clicked the "Format" button. This morning, I came to check on things and it was still "Formatting" with no end in sight. It did not take this long when I originally installed the thing.
    That made me think there might be a problem with the harddrive, but when I went into "Diagnostic mode" and ran the HDD scan, it came back as "Pass". Now, that may mean that there are still problems, but it's nothing I can think of how to fix at the moment.
    This is my last resort before I call Apple and probably have to pay to get it fixed! By the way, I've had it since January of this year. Thanks for any help you guys can be!
    -Eric

    First of all, replying with "I have had the same problem and Tech Support hasn't been able to help me at all!" is not going to help anyone.
    In fact, it's kind of considered "thread-jacking" and is considered rude.
    As for my problem, it has been solved (some-what). I succumbed to downloading Windows XP Service Pack 2 (which I had always heard was death for iPods so I avoided it) and things are now running. Not as smoothly as they did before updating to the latest iPod firmware, but still they're running.
    My advice for the future, if you're having problems, start your own thread. Don't jump onto someone else's thread because no matter how similar your problems may be, there is no possible way that your problem could be EXACTLY the same as that other person. There are going to be differences between computer configurations, etc.

  • Very weird disc problem! Only Witcher disc gets stuck inside everytime

    This is not trolling. Some people on Reddit thought I am trolling but I am not.
    I have three game discs, all work fine except Witcher 3. Everytime I eject it with the controller option or by pressing the button on PS4 it gEts stuck abd I have to manually eject it. Why is this happening ? I had my PS4 for 8 months now and it's only in the past two weeks this happens everytime I play Witcher. What can I do? Please help.

    Is the Whitcher disk physically different in dimension than normal, even by a small amount, or slightly thinner or thicker?

  • Apple Banned me, because of a very weird problem with my "Factory Unlocked"

    Hi Everybody! Im having a very weird problem with my unlocked iphone 4.
    First of all, i would like to apologize because of my english, is not very good. My native language is Spanish.
    Well.. Im from Mexico, and here we can buy the iphone Unlocked on the Apple Online Store.
    Here's my problem. Apple has exchanged my iphone 3 times.
    I returned the iphone the first time because the screen was totally yellowish, other than that everything was working great!, that was by the end of September.
    On October 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then a bigger problem started .
    Before i continue, let me give you this information: here in Mexico we have basically 3 cell phone companies
    1.- Telcel
    2.- Movistar
    3.- Unefon
    OK, now on october 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then procced to activate via itunes using my UNEFON sim card (microsim).
    And every time i tried to activate it, only got this message onscreen:
    http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s2/jorgelomeli/Screenshot2010-10-29at24915PM. png
    I though something was wrong with my brand new factory unlocked iphone 4.
    I have 4 more simcards from my brothers (they all had iphone 4 too)
    I tried telcel sim card, and i could activate my iphone. Then i insterted the Movistar microsim, and it worked too!! But then when i put the Unefon sim, the itunes logo inmediatly appears on the screen asking to activate on itunes, and when i tried that, the only response i got was the image above saying " The Simcard inserted on this iphone does not appear to be supported"
    Weird thing here is, that, when i put my Unefon sim card on my brothers iphone 4, it worked great! on all of them, internet 3g, phone, wireless , evrything!
    I called apple support, and they exchange the iphone for another one.
    I recieved the third iphone on October 29. Last friday. and guess what? SAME PROBLEM! different serial number, same week production (week 42) but exactly the same message on itunes.
    Very, very frustrated, i called apple again, and after 1 hour with thechnical support, they told me " We are sorry, but we can only offer you, your money back, NO MORE EXCHANGES FOR YOU"
    I said why?... i dont want my money back! i want an UNLOCKED iphone!, but they refuse to give me another iphone.
    When i asked techincal support, why my unefon sim card worked great on all three of my brothers iphone but not on mine, he just told me, "I really dont know, i guess they just got lucky" ****, this answer put all my trust i had on apple products for years, right on the garbage.
    Since they refused to give me another iphone, i accepted my money back, and inmediatly after i finished the call, i asked my brother to buy me one more time an iphone 4 using his name, and his credit card. Now i have to wait until November 8-12 to recieve my new iphone, hoping this time i get a REAL UNLOCKED iphone, and not a partially unlocked iphone.
    btw. i even went to Unefon costumer service and bought a new prepiad line, with a new microsim, just to be 100% sure that this problem is not because of the sim. And again didnt worked on my iphone, but it worked on any of my brothers iphone4.
    Serial numbers of the 3 iphones:
    79039C0U* (this one worked great with Unefon, only problem was yellow screen)
    85042GR4*
    81042FJB*
    What do you suggest me? any info would be really aprecciated
    FYI i also restore 4 times the last iphone and nothing seemed to work, i use 3 different computers, Macbook Pro, iMac, and an Hp with Windows 7, and the same message on all three computers.
    Wierd thing also, one of my brothers bougth an iphone 4 this last week too, but he bought the 16Gb not the 32Gb. His iphone production week is 42 also! and when i put my Unefon sim in his iphone works great!
    I dont know what else i can do, I just need to have faith that my new iphone coming this november will be real unlocked, but what if i'll recieve an iphone and then the same problem?? time for android? just kidding really guys, what can i do? anyone with similar problem like me? i dont wanna use Telcel or Movistar, i wanna use Unefon, and thats why i bought an Unlocked iphone
    btw: jailbreak is not a solution for me, because i always like to use legal software on all my apple products, and because of the warranty.

    According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937, there are two official carriers in Mexico (Movistar and Telcel) and neither carrier offers an unlocked phone.

  • Images Problem in Firefox -- very weird -- please help!

    Hi all, I need your help here with ideas...
    I have built a site that is 100% Flex, full size.  It uses images in two different ways: Image controls and HTML text.  Both are populated dynamiccally from XML resources.
    In IE, these all work perfectly.  But I get some very weird behavior in Firefox.
    I have a list with a custom item renderer using Images.  When the user clicks on the list, a pop-up Canvas is displayed with the same image and an Text area with htmlText in-line Images. In Firefox, these images do not populate -- neither the table nor inside the text -- but the text shows perfectly, even spaced around where the image would be.
    But elsewhere in the application, I have an Image control populated the same way, except driven by a datagrid selection, and that one WORKS FINE.  I also have other Text areas using htmlText, populated the same way, and the in-line Images work great there in Firefox. 
    What is going on???

    I think I figured it out.
    The slashes in the image paths went the wrong direction. \ in stead of /
    Apparently, this is no problem for IE, but chokes Firefox.  Keep an eye out.

  • Very weird problem - audio regions referencing elsewhere

    Hi there,
    One of my projects is behaving VERY weirdly.
    For example, some of my drum regions, in the middle of playing, suddenly click, drop out, and then play flute!
    This is happening to a few of my audio regions. It seems to have something with the fade files, because when I drag the region out or in it sorts the problem out but when I load the project again the problem is back. Also, all of my fades just don't work and whenever I reload the project I have to redo all of the fades?!
    Any ideas??

    It's odd that it only does this going from a video to an Audible.com audio book (Audible.com has it's own DRM which somehow integrates with iTunes, otherwise you have to use Audible's own software to load the audio books. I use iTunes for everything). Going from video to music, and audio podcast or another video seems to work okay. That's why I wondered if it was more of a bug than a physical problem.
    In any event, the store I bought it at has a 30-day no-questions return policy. I've got the 30-day point marked on my calendar just in case!
    I already returned an iPod nano under this policy to upgrade to the video iPod. The nano's battery completely failed on me after about 2 weeks. The store said they had a bunch of nanos with bad batteries.

  • Weird internet problem / ssl connection error, site loads in safari not in firefox or other way around

    I really can't figure out this problem. Search the internet tried all kinds of things, nothing help so far.
    I have a Macbook Pro (Lion originally installed) running on Mavericks (all latest updates). SSD installed and the DVD tray is replaced by the original HDD.
    The laptop wasn't running very smooth anymore so decided to give it a fresh Mavericks install (even though I know it's not really necessary for mac, it helped, everything is much faster except a weird internet problem came up).
    After freshly installing Mavericks I couldn't get into my google account anymore, just wouldn't load. Tried Safari (use this normally) and Firefox and Chrome, this last was gave a SSL connection error, both Safari and FF said the website couldn't be loaded because the server didn't respond. For Gmail I use Mailplane which is just stuck on a white page. I tried repairing the keychain, repaired disk and disk permissions, cleaned browsers, turned off firewall and antivirus (Shopos) started in safe mode, checked time settings which were all good. Nothing of this helped. I even ended up creating a usb bootdisk for Mavericks, formatted the disk and reinstalled from the start just Mavericks and nothing else, started Safari, still the same problem. As even this didn't help I figured it's not worth reinstalling all software so put back my backup.
    Now I ended up somehow only being able to use Gmail normally in Firefox, Chrome still gives SSL error and Safari can load the inbox, but I can't open any messages. I get the error there is a problem with the connection. If I try in Basic HTML mode it surprisingly does work.
    You would say, just use Firefox, finished...but the thing is that sometimes random websites won't load in Firefox, when I load the same site in Safari it works perfectly.
    O yes, I also tried the connect to my iPhone and use the Cellular data network, then it's no problem using Gmail in Safari normally. You would say it's a router problem, but I have another Macbook Pro (just one model later running Mountain Lion) this one works perfectly with every browser. Also my iPhone does everyting logged into the WiFi network.
    You can understand I really have no clue what's going on here, I don't see any logic. I can only think of a hardware problem in my Macbook, but don't see how that could cause these problems.
    I hope someone is ably to help me ?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • .xmp files showing up in my SD card when accessing RAW files in Finder... Very weird!

    Hi,
    I'm having a very weird problem...  I'm using a 4GB Scandisk SD card and am shooting my RAW photos on a Canon Rebel 2ti.  I'm using a Macbook Pro, 2011 2.3Ghz i5, 4gb of Ram, with Lion v. 10.7.2 and am accessing the SD card RAW files through Finder.  I'm secondary clicking on the image file or double clicking them as PS is my default opening program for RAW files.  When I hit the "Done" key on any of the Photoshop files, a new .xmp file shows up in Finder.  When I open it, it's a Microsoft Messenger for Mac 8 License Agreement...
    I do have Microsoft Office 11 installed and have never used Messenger.  It's not a huge deal, but it's driving me crazy and it's totally weird!
    Thanks,
    -Dave

    It's a lot of separate, unrelated things happening to you in one long chain, but each step is normal and explainable.
    You are opening raw files straight from a card into Photoshop. Photoshop will open them in Camera Raw. Camera Raw's preferences are set to save changes in XMP sidecar files. You are clicking Done, which applies the default Camera Raw processing, and that change generates an XMP file to store these new settings. That's why an XMP file is showing up in the same folder. On a computer, that's fine. But writing back out to a camera card with a device other than the camera is not recommended. What is recommended is to use another, faster way to preview raw files on a card without changing them (Adobe Bridge, Lightroom, Apple Aperture, Photo Mechanic, etc.), so that the card's left untouched as it should be.
    If you don't want the XMP file to be generated, you have to do just one of the following:
    In Camera Raw preferences, change the "Save image settings in" option to "Camera Raw database", not "Sidecar XMP files".
    Instead of clicking Done every time, which applies any changes, click Cancel instead, if you were just looking and not editing.
    Use something other than Photoshop to preview raw files. Most of the other ways are faster than opening them in Photoshop. The recommended workflow is to use a camera downloading utility to look through all the images on the card at once (instead of one by one as you are doing), and then select only the ones you want to bring into your computer. Bridge (via File > Get Photos from Camera, not by browsing), Lightroom, Aperture, and iPhoto all have that capability.
    As to why double-clicking an XMP file opens a Messenger license agreement: As you probably know, the system has to figure out what program should open a file with a given filename extension. It sounds like maybe both Adobe and Microsoft have used the XMP extension, and the Office installer probably associated it with some type of MS Messenger file. So when you double-click an XMP file, Mac OS X opens Messenger. Since you have not used Messenger before, it's showing you the "first run" screen for Messenger, and Microsoft has set it up so that you have to click Agree on the license agreement before using it. If you never click Agree, it will still be the "first run" next time you open Messenger, whether you meant to or not. You can use Get Info in the Mac Finder to reassign XMP to open in another program.
    You probably didn't expect so many things to happen from just opening a raw file off a card, but that's the way it worked out.

  • Weird display problem with iMac 24"

    Hi guys, I have a very weird problem with my 24" iMac. For some reason it seems that after approx. 10 minutes using the Mac, whenever I keep a window on top of another window and then I minimize it, it keeps there like a ghost for another 5-10 seconds until it fades away slowly slowly.
    Sometimes it's hard to see it however it's very evident when using a white window (such as Safari) on a dark background (not black).
    I'm attaching an image split into 2 parts, the 2nd part is shot exactly after I minimised the browser. It clearly shows a faded ghost image on the grey Photoshop canvas.
    Here's the pic:

    Has anyone ever experienced a problem similar to mine? or am I getting paranoid?
    By the way, I bought this Mac, 5 months ago and I don't know whether this problem has been there from the beginning but I only noticed recently while cropping in Photoshop and still seeing the parts I removed away very faded.

    den.thed it's not that I took it the wrong way or anything but shouldn't I be doing whatever I like with my iMac?
    For the record that is a dark grey Photoshop canvas, which just happens to show the problem much more evidently.
    The problem is that it happens on any background (even desktop) with any window, even Adium etc. Their ghost just stays there for a while... I use the iMac for design purposes and it's very annoying especially when cropping a picture and what I just cut out stays there very faded...

  • IPad Air running 8.2 - one of the two cameras shows very weird colors.

    This started a couple weeks ago. The outward camera view shows very weird colors. I have looked on line for a solution and found a reference that said the 'live camera filter is stilled turned on' but I don't think live filters exist any more. ive tried everything I can think of. Attached is a screen shot when using the camera.
    TIA

    Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
    Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
