Why won't my ipod won't connect to my car hifi system through the usb cable? (it says: Unreadable)
Just bought the latest ipod nano because the usb on my previoius model was unreadable by my in car hifi system but found the same thing with this one. Is there a different usb cable available that is compatible with a Mercedes E class?
Did you do everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Including
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Why won't this song play even after I authorized the computer? It says that I need to authorize the computer, then I enter my username and password and it says the computer is already authorized. But then the song still won't play. What do I do?
Use the Apple ID support -> http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/ - click through the contact information and select the iTunes, etc., hot button. You can have Apple call you or email them.

Neither my iPod Touch nor my iPhone will show up in iTunes when I plug in through the USB cable. My software is updated, I've restarted everything, I've reset the devices, but still no luck. Help?!
Check your System Profiler to see if your computer is recognizing them. You may need to reset the computers SMC.

Why doesn't E71 recharge through the USB cable?
When the phone is connected to a computer via USB cable, its battery drains continuously. I have to connect the power cable separately to charge the battery again. The battery (and the phone) is new and alright. Only won't recharge through USB when connected. Or is there some setting I'm missing for the USB connection?

My previous SE W610i phone was bought in that year (the present Nokia one was bought just the last week). The SE model did have the ability to charge through USB. Guess my expectations are not too high, after all. In fact, Nokia is always pretty far behind the competition when it comes to the features' availability and their implementation. That's why it's falling behind in the smartphone arena.
To add to what Psycho has already mentioned, your highlighted statement above is somewhat unfair. The various manufacturers all have their pros and cons and some are better at certain things than others. It is up to the consumer to make a to select the make and model of phone that best suits their needs.
Since you brought up the W610 and to emphasise the point I made above, it too is lacking a lot of features that are present on the E71, such as gps, wifi, 3g. 3.2mpxl camera, just to list a few. -
Any help would be appreciated. I have downloaded and installed the latest twain drivers and CUPS drivers from Brother-USA but no change in symptoms.

My ipod touch needed to be updated so I did and now it won't turn on all it does is show the itunes icon and says toconnect it to itunes so I did and let it be updated and now it wont turn on and I tried resetting but nothing changed.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My FaceTime won't connect. Every time I try to call my friend it says connecting. Then unable to connect. Or lost connection. And when I go to our FaceTime history it said "FaceTime answered on another device." What can I do to fix this problem? We always used to FaceTime. And now all of the suddenly we can't.
Apple has released a document which is reported to address the recent FaceTime issue.

why won't my imac email send unless I restart the whole computer?
Two things, first see if it shows up in "Apple > About This Mac > More Info.. > Disc Burning" . If you still see it there the system still recognizes it but it isn't responding. Next 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.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
Hopefully this will reset the power to the drive. -

TS2634 Why won't my screen orient for a movie on the dock?
Why won't my screen orient for a movie on the dock? It used to.
Are you by any chance using Netfix when this happens. If you are, I believe that this changed in their last app update. The movies will only work in landscape mode.
If you are not using Netfix and you are using the videos app, close the app and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. 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 twice.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Why won't my Intel iMac boot up, either from the internal hard drive or the DVD drive? It just displays a light grey screen, without any other icons, etc. The fact that it won't boot from the original system DVD is what baffles me the most. Any ideas? It uses the latest version of Mavericks. Thanks!
If the C key for Install Disc or R Command for OS X Recovery startup commands are not working, try holding the Option key for the Startup Manager.
see > Startup Manager: How to select a startup volume
If that does not work and you using a wireless keyboard, it may have become unpaired and you need to dig up a USB keyboard to invoke the startup commands.
For more on gray screen, see > Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
