When i try to use my ipod it looks like the brightness was turned wayyyyy down. Like more than normal. I cant see anything. How do i fix it?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

i have an ipod tough 3g and its like about 4 to 5 years old it works perfectly fine except the home button is abit messed up and the ipod sometimes crashes. but other than that everything is fine. so i was watching something on an app and then al of a sudden i dont see the video i can just hear it. i then think its just the app but when i go on youtube the same exact thing happens. you click to watch a video and you can hear it perfectly but you cant see anything. the screen is just black when u ONLY watch a video. this happened last night so yea.i really hope somebody can help me figure out how to fix this and whats wrongwith it:)
thanks for your time and help!
Noor .T.When it goes black do a very short press of the button on the right upper side of the phone and the screen will reappear. Make it a very short quick press.
OTOH, if you are using the speaker so you can watch the screen as you are talking when it goes dim touch the screen anywhere that it is blank and it will again go bright. On long calls you have to repeat this.
Many folks have had the same problem you described and what I have told you is the best and ONLY way around the screen going blank during a call.

Everytime i go on Itunes it tells me i have to restore my ipod but everytime i do, it just tells me to do it again? When i try and use my ipod it just has a connect to itunes sign and nothing else, it wont work at all?
I updated itunes and everything but nothings working and i just can't figure it out?
Everytime i restore the stupid thing, it never pops up in my itunes again like its supposed to!Loop
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

When I try to use siri to book an appointment the last step when she says "do you want me to shedule that for you" I say yes and then she says "Sorry I can't do that, very frustrating. Do I have to turn on another setting or something?
Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

When setting up a Firefox Sync account I was never asked a secret phrase. When I try to use Firefox Home it asks for the secret phrase. What do I do? (using Firefox 3.6.10, iphone 4 and macbook OS X
On the MacBook, open up the Preferences dialog and go to the Sync panel. Click the Manage Account button so it shows more options, then click on the My Sync Key link to show you the Sync Key.
The sync key is the same as the secret phrase, it was renamed in recent versions of Firefox Sync. -

When I try to use an animation preset I get the following error...
When I try to use an animation preset I get the following error...
After Effects error: Cant import file "Evaporate.ffx": unsupported filetype or extension. (0::1)
What do I do???As Rick says, you apply an animation preset, not import it.
Since you're new to After Effects, I recommend starting here and working your way through the basic learning materials. Doing so will prevent much frustration. -
I bought my Apple iTunes & Apple AppStore Card's at Best Buy, but when I try to use them I get this error: The Gift Certificate or Prepaid Card code you entered has not Ben properly activated. What did I do wrong or did Best Buy not scan it right! Real Geniuses in that store!
If so, then review the first link to see if you can troubleshoot your issue yourself. If that doesn't work, then contact iTunes Support via the second link below:

I recently did an update for my iTunes and now when I try to open it, I get an error that says that my data execution prevention is not allowing it to open. How do I fix this issue?
Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes?

hi guys i have 2 ? 1 my daughters iphone is trying to update on my mac cant get it off help please ,,, 2 i have an old apple id and when i try to up date it keeps looking for the password how do i delete this old apple id help
Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -
I am unable to update any add-ons at all. Every time I try and install an add-on or even the new "show hidden add-ons" add-on, I get a server error. How do I fix this?
You may have triggered some intermittent database issues but it should be running smooth by now. Let us know if you still see server errors.
Also, if your addons appear to go missing after updating there is a workaround http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/09/28/issue-discovered-with-firefox-add-on-upgrades/ And there is a 7.0.1 fix on its way. -

When I try to use IE, Firefox starts up and takes the address from IE and opens it in Firefox. I need to use both browsers. How do I stop this?
I imagine you have Firefox set as the default browser. Unset that in firefox
* Tools -> Options -> |Advanced| -> |General| -> system ... <br/>and uncheck the option to always check that Firefox is the default browser
* now open IE and use IE's settings to set that as the default browser
Now if for instance you open an internet link, or a HTML file on your Windows XP desktop they should open in IE
Post back with how you get on. -

Have you tried using another computer? Have you used this computer to log in before? Have you made any recent changes (programs or settings) to your computer, firefox or your account?
Can you not open firefox at all, or just your account?
