Why won't my albums play from Music icon
Thought is should re ask this question more clearly. When i try to play an album from the 'music' app nothing happens (ipad2). It will play songs and song lists but not albums. Very odd especially as iPad is less than a week old and it was working fine yesterday. Does anyone have any ideas? This is all new to me -and up until this problem I was super happy with the whole iPad experience.....
Have you tried closing the Music app completely and seeing if you can play albums when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Music 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Music app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Why won't itunes recognize/play from my library on time capsule
I have a macbook air running mountain lion 10.8.2
1 TB Time Capsule
Itunes 11.0.1
Iphoto 10.8.2
Its been my goal for a long time to get all of my music and all of my photos onto the time capsule and be able to pull them up via itunes and iphoto directly from the hard drive.
) the new itunes version updated and erased all of my playlists and most of my music/movies/apps etc. such a nightmare
) so since everything was defunct anyway, I move my itunes file over to the time capsule. Changed the reference folder in iTunes preferences
Keep iTunes Media folder organized is checked
Copy files to itunes media folder when adding to library is checked
Then I went to File>Library>organize library
Then restarted itunes
) Itunes doesn’t pull up all of my movies and media still
) If I click on a song from the itunes folder on the time capsule – it plays and adds to the itunes screen. if I drag the whole folder onto the itunes screen, it seems to be busy copying etc. but in the end nothing changes.
) If I click on an .m4v file, it doesn’t open with itunes and doesn’t give that as an option. If you search for itunes app to open it, you have to search through folders to find it. Even after you get it to open in itunes, I don’t think the movie is stayYou can use the Time Capsule for storage but not as a media Server
The Time Capsule / Airport with external drive can act as media STORAGE, but neither will run as a media SERVER. You will need at least one Mac running iTunes, with sharing turned on, and/or a media extender program like Null River's Media Link which will create a standard uPnP front-end that a PS3, Xbox or similar can poll.
A Mac Mini is often used as a media server... but might not be as cost-effective as other solutions... -
Why won't my movie play from the title screen?
I purchased "Bridesmaids" and a couple of other movies on my iTunes account. When I go to play the movie, it loads the title screen, but I cannot start the movie when I try to push "play" or through the scene selection. Is there any way to re-download a movie that I have previously purchased? Thank you!

Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.
Hi David,
Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Delete the songs with no artwork on your iPad and resync your music from iTunes on your computer.

Why my laptop don't play my music cd auto?
Why my laptop don't play my music cd auto?
Hi,
The following only applies if you're using Vista or Windows 7, not XP.
First, try the automated fixit from Microsoft on the link below.
Windows 7
Vista
Check if the drive will now play CDs.
If it still doesn't, click the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, right click the Command Prompt and select 'Run as Administrator'. In to the prompt type the following command and hit enter.
sfc /scannow ( note that there is a space between sfc and the / )
Let the process complete, then type exit and hit enter.
Next, click the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and click on Device Manager. Next click to open DVD/CD-ROM Drives. Right click the drive and select uninstall. Do not delete drivers if asked. When the device has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for Hardware Changes' icon ( usually just below Help on the toolbar ). Let windows reinstall the drive and see if it now plays CDs.
Regards,
DP-K

Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?
Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?
Ok I had this problem, and for me at least what happened was that not all the album artwork was attached to all songs on the album. So if you right click one of the albums you are having an issue with, the click artwork tab, and go through each song on the album, if it is missing from any of them it will not sync properly to any device. Find the songs that have the artwork, and then right click to copy it, then go to songs without it, and right click in the blank box and paste it in there. Then once finished with any issues you are having sync iPod, this should fix the problem. It worked for me, and it was unbelievably frustrating to know I have the artwork, but it wasn't showing up anywhere on the iPod. Hopefully this fixes the issue for you, like it did for me!

Why won't 'Address and Search' from 'Customize Toolbar' box 'stick' when I drag it to my toolbar? I ran updates last night, and my Google searchbox disappeared and I can't get it back.

URL address bar and Google search field are combined together in Safari 6.
Apple calls it Smart Search field.
There is no way to separate them. -

Hi There,
I had the same problem took me several hours to try and sort it out but nothing worked.
I then went to the following apple link

Follow everything to a T and you will get the use of your Itunes again.
Hope this helps. Good luck (And remember to breath lol ) -
Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?
A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off. It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
There is no Facetime icon. Start a Facetime link from a contact. -
Why won't .MOV files export from Lightroom?
Why won't .MOV files export from Lightroom?
The will.
Or at least they can, and do, sometimes, if you have good MOV karma..
Why not supply a little more info, like:
* Which OS
* Which version of Lightroom
* History of MOV files.
* Export format.
* Do other video types export OK
* How many different MOV files have you tried - all with the same history?
and of course:
* What, exactly, happens, when you try?

Why won't pdf files print from Safari?
why won't pdf files print from Safari? I get blank pages. They print fine from Firefox. OS X 10.8.4
Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
Why do some videos opened/played from Safari only open to about a 2" square. Can't get a full screen view? I have Safari 5.0.6 and QuickTime Player 7.7. Thanks
Hi, Daryl -
If you moved the G4 around to make room for the new machine, that could have jarred the processor loose. It's not unusual for that to happen to an older machine, though it usually happens to RAM or cables, not to the processor.
Years of heating and cooling can loosen a connection and cause some oxidation of the contacts; subsequent moving of the machine, coupled with just a bit of thumping or torquing of the chassis, can cause the connection to fail. Reseating the connection not only makes it secure again, it usually wipes the oxidation off of the contacts. -
