Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads 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.
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 Fusion Drive or 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 login 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 the test.

My iMac was synchronised to my iPod in the store I purchased it. When I purchase an audio books it is not synching accross to the iPod. Am I missing something . What would happen if I use the 'sync' button again?

My iMac was synchronised to my iPod in the store I purchased it. When I purchase an audio book it is not synching accross to the iPod. Am I missing something ? What would happen if I use the 'sync' button again?

Yes. Other things have synced including books, but I don't know how these happened. According to the 'audible' instructions it should happen automatically, but it doesn't.

- Charge the iPod for half an hour. Then reset the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
- If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. For recovery mod see:

Limit the time of lookup and make the method to throw an Exception

When I connect from
Client
Remote Desktop Client
Server:
SUN JAVA SYSTEM APPLICATION SERVER 9.0
Initial Context object is initialized as per below coding,
System.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialHost", prop.getProperty("hostName"));
System.setProperty("org.omg.CORBA.ORBInitialPort", prop.getProperty("portNumber"));
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
while .lookup("globalJndiNameForSessionBean") method is invoked on the InitialContext object and if the server is not available, it is throwing non stop error.
Please tell me wether I have to add any other Properties to limit the time of lookup and make the method to throw an Exception after two or three second, if the server is not available.

What do you mean by 'non-stop error'? This can only happen if your code goes into a non-stop loop.
The default TCP connect timeout is about 75 seconds, which in some circumstances is too long, but two or three seconds definitely isn't long enough. Ten to twenty would be more like it.
I'm not aware of any system properties that limit the ORB connect timeout but then I'm not aware where the existing J2SE ORB system properties are documented. If anybody has ever found this please let us know.

I created a new collection and put all of my same photos in them as a previous collection, then I changed them to black and white and both collections changed. How do I keep the first collection colour and make the second collection black and white.

I created a new collection and put all of my same photos in them as a previous collection, then I changed them to black and white and both collections changed. How do I keep the first collection colour and make the second collection black and white.

For the second collection, choose the option to make virtual copies. Then you can turn the virtual copies to black & white, leaving the first collection in color. If you want file copies of the B & W images you can export copies.

Yes, I've that and it didn't work. Today, I reinstalled printer software on one printer and the "paused" message changed to "offline". It's a three-in-one printer. I turned off and on again and it still says "offline"

The loading bar at the bottom of my browser has disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the lastest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP.

The loading bar at the bottom of my Firefox browser has suddenly disappeared and I want to reinstall or reactivate it. How do I do this please and what is this bar called? I use the latest version of Firefox 3.6.3 and Windows XP. I have many add ons and I usually automatically install the recommended updates. This problem has never happened before and switching my browser on and off again does not solve the issue.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I am not sure why this suddenly happened. I think it may have been after my usual updates but I am not sure if that has anything to do with it at all.

When listening to an audio book the ipod nano (6th generation) keeps turning off?

Help! I just purchased an ipod nano (6th generation) for the sole purpose of listening to audio books. When I start a book about 20 seconds into it the screen goes dark and the ipod stops...then I have to turn the on/off switch on to begin the book again. I'm sure it has something to do with the settings, but I cannot locate the information I need in the ipod manual. Any help anyone can give me would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I saw your other post, but thought I would reply here as well. It is all about getting that headset seated all the way. If you can see any silver of the plug, it is not in far enough. Push harder. If it just won't go in, look in there to see if it is blocked. The bottom of the headset port is white, so if it appears all dark at the bottom... something is in there.

Do I have to listen to all audio books using itunes if I'm in the car?

I downloaded a free audio book from audioBKshelf and wanted to listen in the car. In order to hear the book while driving I think I have twp choices
A- buy speakers so I can hear the book over the road noise or
B -move this free book into iTunes.
Is there anyway to move the free audio book to iTunes. It didn't come over when I synced.

You don't need to sign into iCloud on your PC to access previously purchased iTunes music. You only need to redownload it with iTunes, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

How to make the bookmarks bar JUST text and without the "Bookmarks" drop down and make the other bar have text with pictures? How to download a previous version of firefox?

The option is to set text, text and pictures, or pictures but it affects both bars and how to get the old version back because I just wanted a stupid addon that I didn't even need and now is firefox just stuck this way. I know it's better to have the new version for security or whatever but the new features are bad for me personally I can't use this program how can I get the old version again please help. Or at least help me fix my bookmarks bar it was carefully made so I can do my work but now it has been destroyed and it can't get rid of the icons without getting rid of Home Refresh Stop icons and also the Bookmarks dropdown menu button can't be removed from the bookmarks bar?

So if the bookmarks toolbar is fixed up you don't need to go back to Firefox 4. That's easy.
This styling will change the bookmark folders to blue (most common) and the few bookmarks to red. Most would have short names 1-4 characters. Install the "'''Stylish'''" extension and then the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User:Dmcritchie style(s)] suggested below.
* '''Stylish''' :: Add-ons for Firefox https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/
* '''Bookmarks Toolbar Fx4 Blue/Folders, Red/Bookmarks''' - Themes and Skins for Browser http://userstyles.org/styles/46947
'''Additional styling suggestions'''
* '''Scrollbar Menu''' - Themes and Skins for Browser - userstyles.org http://userstyles.org/styles/52
* '''Scrollbar Context Menu''' - Themes and Skins for Browser http://userstyles.org/styles/54
The drop-down at the end wouldn't be there as long as everything fits on the row.
:Once you start using styles you will really like them because you can control/modify/use them independently as building blocks as opposed to someone elses full theme design or extension.
I fail to see how the above is ''sketchy''
# Install the "'''Stylish'''" extension
# Install the suggested Style
The advantage of a style is that they are very small compared to extensions, and if you don't like they way it looks, you can modify it. Try to do that with an extension.
The suggested style shows folders in blue, and bookmarklets or bookmarks in red used as buttons.
The deiconizer extension looks rather hard to read, seems rather large for what it does, and it has space wasting drop downs which are meaningless, simply left click to show the folder.
''it can't get rid of the (bookmark/folder) icons without getting rid of Home Refresh Stop icons and also the Bookmarks dropdown menu button can't be removed from the bookmarks bar?''
The Home button would show as text ("Home") with the style change, as for Refresh ("F5") and Stop("Esc") the keyboard shortcuts work better for me anyway and have never included them on my toolbars. I keep the Home button to the left of the Location bar anyway so it shows an icon.
'''For those that really need an earlier version of Firefox''', find your system and the Firefox version you want in releases, download and start the install.
* ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
When reinstalling Firefox from a download, Firefox must be down once the installation starts. When the installation finishes, don't let the install start firefox for you. Instead end the install and start Firefox in your normal manner, thus preventing creating a new profile which does not have your bookmarks cookies, etc (but your old profile would still be around and would).

Somehow my application icon in the dock has disappeared and I have no idea where it went or how to get it back. I am not all that computer knowledgeable. Thanks for your help.

Somehow my application icon in the dock has disappeared. I have no idea where it went but it contains all my applications that i use. How do I get the application icon to return to the dock. Thanks for your help. I am not computer literate by any means. Thanks

Goto your application folder, find your app then drag/drop it back to the dock.

I can't play music on my iPad, every time I click the music icon, the screen goes blank and goes back to my home screen...how can I fix this?

I cant play music on my iPad? The music icon does not work...

Quit the music app completely and try it again. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Try the app again.
Or ....
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
