  • Why does my iPod get hot?

    Why does my iPod touch battery get hot?

    It is normal for the iPod to get warm while charging and during heavy use.  If you have a concern, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
    Otherwise we need more information.

  • Why does my MBP get the grey screen after backing up to external hard drive???

    (firstly, i'm a complete moron on terminal, though i managed to unlock the external HD. i appreciate the simplicity of mac, i.e. a moron in many ways.)
    for some bizarre reason, every time i copy files to the external HD, i end up with a lock on the external HD and the dreaded spinning grey screen when i restart the MBP. i've managed to get rid of the grey screen by reinstalling with the snow leopard DVD without formatting, but this is obviously not practical. am i doing something wrong??
    the last time i did this, i dragged my "user" files. then i dragged my entire internal HD into a folder created in my external HD. i've done this with my powerbook and older OS without issues, but OS 10.5 and 10.6 don't seem to work without ending up with the spinning grey screen and a lock on the HD.
    thanks in advance for your input. (and please keep it simple...)

    no, but it's definitely not due to a corrupt external drive. this happened with two different brands of drives. the first time with a lacie, i thought my MBP hard drive was damaged, but it was determined that a reinstall was all it needed. the same thing happened with an OWC. they both work fine. there seems to be some kind of a permission problem which gets screwed up somwhere.

  • Why does my printer get the color wrong?

    I am trying to print a flyet that is dark red with yellow type, yet it prints out as green with faded yellow type. Why won't the background show up as the correct color?

    What printer make and model are you using?

  • Why does my ipod backup mess up my iphone settings?

    So I recently got an iphone 5 and restored it from my ipod toouch 4 ios 6.1.6 backup and now some of the features of the iphone are replaced by the ipod's. If you have a newer idevice, you know that when you hold down the volume down button for about 2 seconds it auto mutes it but since ipod 4's dont have that feature, the backup that of the ipod that I put in my iphone also makes it lose that feature. Another problem is the ipod 4 dies at around 16% to 15% and now the battery setting on my iphone thinks that when it is 15% it is time to turn off. Is there a way to fix this without losing all my apps?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • HT1657 My download keeps freezing, and I have to buy it over and over again and it wastes money. I have now rented my movie 4 times and it still won't finish downloading. Why can't I get the rental for free if it keeps doing this?

    MY DOWNLOAD KEEPS FREEZING AND I HAVE TO KEEP BUYING IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. IT'S WASTING MY MONEY. I HAVE NOW RENTED MY MOVIE 4 TIMES AND IT STILL WON'T FINISH DOWNLOADING. WHY CAN'T I GET THE RENTAL FOR FREE IF IT KEEPS DOING THIS? CAN YOU PLEASE HELP? THANK YOU.

    Please turn off your caps lock.  All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read.  Many will not read such posts.
    If it doesn't finish downloading then just click Store>Check For Available Downloads
    There is no need to keep re-buying it.

  • Why does my ipod have on the screen the itunes symbol and the cord and an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol?  I can't get it to do anything.

    Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol.  I can't do anything with my ipod now!

    Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

  • Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?

    Why does my ipod no longer play all the items in a playlist?  I have to go to each item individually to select it as it no longer goes from one item to the next.

    what kind of connection do you have? do you use the ipod 30 pin cable that connects directly to the head unit? it so, maybe you could get help on the alpine site, or a similar site?it could just be a bad connection. you may just have to go oldschool and use rca cables and plug those in...

  • I restored my iPod in the middle of a download, now it can't do anything but restore, and when i restore it, the screen gets stuck on weird things, like the apple screen or purple or yellow. how do i get it un-stuck?

    i restored my iPod in the middle of a download, now it can't do anything but restore, and when i restore it, the screen gets stuck on weird things, like the apple screen or purple or yellow. how do i get it un-stuck?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough space available.

    Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.

    The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
    80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
    It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
    Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.
