  I haven't used itunes for some time and now have a new PC.  I've updated my account (change password) but when I connect to my music went?  I am working on Win 8 and still have part of my collection on an ipod.

  Unless you subscribe to iTunes game (which is not a complete solution anyway) your iTunes Library is on your previous PC - solution the easiest is to copy from here or from a backup.  For more information, see How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support .  Previous purchases from the iTunes Store may be available for re - download - see download your past - purchases of Apple Support.

  If none of these approaches allows to recover the contents of your library, see user turingtest2 on recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device library for a list of tools and methods that can be used to copy the media etc from iPod to iTunes.

• pop ups continue to add to update video player and they keep opening keep tabs. How can I stop it?

  New tabs keep open asking me to update my video player

  If the new tabs are relentless, you may need to restart Firefox Safe mode to get little peace. It is a standard diagnostic tool to disable some advanced features of Firefox and extensions. More info: questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode.

  You can restart Firefox in Mode safe mode using either:

  • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > restart with disabled modules
  • Help menu > restart with disabled modules

  Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still works

  After stops in Firefox, a small dialog box should appear. Click on 'Start mode safe' (not reset).

  Any difference?

• Windows Update next time ICON will not go away.

  I was notified (install shield ICON next to the time) 3 updates of Windows XP were available for installation.  I clicked on the shield to install ICON and three updates were installed without problem.  A little later, I was informed that (what I thought) have been updated further to install.  I clicked on the shield to install it next to the time and updates - updates is proved be the same as those previously installed.  I then decided to go to start > all programs > Windows Update and see if updates have been recorded as being installed on my system - they were... in fact, they were recorded as being installed at three different times.

  Don't ask me how or why, but the Microsoft shield icon to install update has disappeared from the taskbar in this morning.  I turned off the computer/on several times yesterday thinking that he could solve the problem - it did it not.  As always, I disabled the system before going to bed last night.  Unsurprisingly, I thought, the shield icon install was still there this morning when I turned it on.  The icon, however, disappeared on its own about 30 seconds after starting.  Why I'm not sure.  In any case, I think that this issue is resolved for now.

• Windows 8, windows install keeps flashing on the screen several times only WILL NOT STOP

  Hello

  I'm having a weird bug, that I have not met before with windows install.

  I tried to install a version of MS Access 2000 Runtime on my machine to windows 8 dell inspiron 660. (The company I work again to use access 2000 Apps)

  The installation failed and basically the planted program without completing the installation.

  Immediately after what happened the windows Setup window started blinking on the screen very fast.

  I tried a system restore, the program Microsoft 'fix - it' (do not do anything), and I have restored the registry from a backup without success.

  The ONLY medium to stop flashing windows setup is to stop the windows service install, but when you start to use the pc new installer windows itself will start up and the flashing continued.

  I can't find a way to disable windows full installer (apparently windows 8 will not let you change the start type services.msc )

  Dell technical support was also no help because they wanted me to pay the money even if its in warranty.

  I'm thinking really just install xp on it and be done with this...

• I've updated my ipad and Ive long since forgotten the HELP and the password I used now, I can't activate it. Someone at - it no clues.

  Apple. Ive updated my ipad and activate it, that ive never been asked before, I need the apple id and password that were used when I put in place. It was 8 years ago and Ive long since forgotten. Then how the * either override the need to activate deactivate or know what AID and password I was used.

  Apple seems very proud of screwing with us with updates. I hate the update whatever it is apple, I hate it. It always leads to problems. It is never easy. The one you have bright ideas?

  Are you still connected to the account anywhere so that you can look it up? Do you have the account downloads in your computer's iTunes library so that you can do "get info" on them and see the id? Have you tried: If you have forgotten your Apple - Apple Support ID ?

  If you can't find or still do not forget your id, and if you were the original purchaser of the iPad (i.e. he not was purchased used) then you could try to go to an Apple Store (make a Genius Bar appointment if you do) or try to contact iTunes Support Online (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/) and see if they can remove the iPad on the account - they are likely to want to see proof of ownership before they could help for example received original with top serial number

• Windows Update Error 80070002. Windows configures still (probably the same) updates every time that I have shut down or restart.

  Windows always configures updates while shutting down the machine and the later start. I tried all the methods described on the microsoft Web site, including the removal of the files in the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution after stopping the update service, using fixit and using the analysis tool. All in vain.

  Update of Windows gives an error code 80070002. I have this problem since December 14, 2011.
  Kindly help.

  Thank you for your advice. I have solved my problem. The approximate sequence of change made is:

  Remove pending.xml file.
  Rename the folder C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.
  Calendar Checkdisk and reboot your pc.
  Run as administrator command prompt and type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.
  After completion, reboot your pc and try to install the updates.
  Once again thanks for the advice...
