Why does volume go to zero all by itself?
this is an i[pod touch
If a reset, restore from backup, or restore to factory defaults does not correct this issue, it's likely hardware related. It's often the result of your iPod coming into contact with some sort of moisture.
In that case, you'll want to set up an appointment at your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and see if there is anything they can do for you.

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.

Why does mountain lion "bunch up" all my microsoft office documents that I have open when I hit f3? When I had snow leopard for example, if i had 4 or 5 different microsoft office documents open at the same time I could hit f3 and easily pick one of them.
Notice how in the photo, I can't identify which MS office document I would like to switch too. Perhaps since the Dashboard and Desktop windows are at the top of my screen now Apple doesn't let you have all the applications take up the full screen and be sized individually so that you can have a better idea on what to pick.
I like the idea of grouping to an extent... If you have a bunch of random things it was hard for me to decifer between what was safari, chrome, or word. But now that they grouped them like this, if you have multiple pages of one program running, you can't switch between those pages easily like before.If I wanted to open any of my Applework documents I had to open them one at a time and resave them with pages. This could take weeks.I have 1000s of apple work documents.
You don't have to open and re-save every AppleWorks document you have right now. Just wait till you need one, then do it. The documents aren't going anywhere.
Am I dealing with Microsoft? This was a BIG surprise to me that Apple would release an OS without testing all programs.
Frankly, it is not Apple's responsibility to ensure compatibiltiy with every piece of software available for OS X. That is the responsibility of the software vendor. Lion has been available to developers for several months before it's release, so Microtek had plenty of time to update their software. Yet they did not. How is that Apple's fault? I think Apple was very generous to give you a refund for Lion.
I'm not trying to belittle your frustration but I do think your ire is misplaced. -
Why does iTunes no longer sync all of my songs? It only syncs 125/600, despite plenty of room on my iPod Touch.
Yes I've done a reset but it made no difference.

Why does camera roll take up all my storage data and how do i get it free for space
why does camera roll take up all my storage data and how do i get it free for space
You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on any iOS devices that you have by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -
Why does my Power MAC G4 keep restarting itself after I shut it down?
Hi,
Thanks for reading this.
Why does my Power MAC G4 keep restarting itself after I shut it down?
This JUST started happening only 4 days ago.
Most recent installation was Limewire, but I removed it to see if this problem would go away.
I have 3 internal drives (See drive types below) that all have OS 10 on them in order to be able to boot up from either drive in the event of trouble.
However...
No matter WHICH drive I use as the start up drive... the computer STILL restarts itself after it is properly commanded to shut down.
Prior to the Limewire install... the ADOBE creative suite was installed.
There is a Lexmark X83 printer hooked to the computer, which, it seems doesn't matter if it is left on or off... the computer still restarts itself.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

If you still have problems, trash the following three preference files, then shut down and do a PMU reset. (PMU reset procedure for the QS is the same as is shown at the link for the Gigabit Ethernet.)

Why does my 1st gen iPad always turns itself off and goes back to the screen. Whether I'm reading news, iBooks, etc, suddenly it goes off.
If that doesn't help, the battery may be dying and need replacement. See here (tap on Battery Replacement): http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
Alternately, might consider start saving for a new iPad. The newest iPad 6 should come out in the next few months. When it does, sellers will want to get rid of old inventory with good deals. -
Why does status bar say that all items are not loaded?
When I have the status bar displayed at the bottom of my page, and I load a page, it usually says 4 of 5 item complete, or 6 of 7, or even one time, 92 of 93. What does this mean exactly? And why does it never say all items are completed? Is anything wrong with the browser, or is this just code for something?
Thanks,
JeffThese days web pages have many little extras, not just images, that have to be downloaded when we click on a link to a page. Sometimes, for a variety of reasons (file availability, internet problems, browser, bad coding, local cache, ISP problem) not everything downloads.
As long as the page seems to have all the information and nothing is apparently missing, I tend to ignore this.
When all items are completed, the status bar shows nothing. -
Why does my Photos application show all of my pictures as blurry?
The built in Photos app just recently started to display every one of my photos as blurry. Why does it do this? I have tried closing out all other applications, restarted the Ipad itself, and then opened the Photos app again. However, the pictures still appear blurry.
TNormally in most cases such as yours, reindexing Spotlight will correct the problem. Try it again.
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201716
This seems to be a common problem with Yosemite.
If that does not correct the problem, you may try SMC and PRAM resets:
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
http://web.archive.org/web/20140711222006/http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
(This is a guess on my part. No harm can come to the MBP performing these resets.)
The last option is a reinstall of the OSX.
May I assume that the overall amount of data is correct? If not, then we will have to look at OmniDiskSweeper and Grand Perspective.

Why does Captivate have to convert all the PPTX slides when I only want two?
Hello friendly people : ) ,
I often import Power Point slides into my Captivate projets. Even when I only want two slides from a large Power Point presentation, Captivate converts every slide, and this of course, take quite a bit of time. Is there any way around this?
Thank you.
RyanHi Ryan,
How Captivate does import is, it fetches all the PPT/PPTX source content in the import process and then produces the Selection box where you can choose what all slide you want to bring in and then on proceeding it converts those slides to Cp compatible Slide structure and introduces them at the stated slide location.
What, I understand (Looking at your other thread) you do not link and re-import all slides after making any small change. So, if these modifications are being made by same individual on same machine, he can simply right click and edit the presentation from PowerPoint and save it to bring all the changes (this can be done without switching to linked in library).
Thanks,

Why does my iPod keep turning off by itself
why does my ipod touch keep turning off by itself?
Is it running hot? There are thermal limits that will shut it down.
As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
You are now in a perfect position to do a
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.

My friend recently gifted me a brand new iPhone 4s bought in the the US. I live in India though. My phone keeps shutting off by itself even when there is full battery. And, it comes back on only with a hard reset. Why does this happen?
Thank you! I will try restoring it as new. But getting it back to the US for service is going to be a task!

Why does my i phone 4 keep switching itself off
hi can anyone help why does my phone keep switching itself off
Hi jodierigby,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps you can take if your iPhone is unexpectedly powering off:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Cheers,
- Ari
