The message says..

"The ipod could not be restored because the firmware file is not compatible".

I tried restarting the computer and changing out cables but it still won't work.

Is there any other way to fix this or get my songs loaded onto my ipod for free?

Thanks

I looked at the hinge and it doesn't appear to have a tension type of adjustment that was obvious. The lid has been in the down position. I have not moved the turntable much since purchasing it. The hinges appear Ok.

My TV came with the Roku “Standard IR (infrared) Remote”. So first I checked all connections and plug to outlet were all secure. Then I grabbed some brand new AAA batteries and replaced the remote batteries. Still nothing!! So I moved the TV into 3 other rooms trying different outlets (live in apartment). Nothing!! After some research I found out (via manufacture) how to verify that my remote was working so that's not the problem (I think)!! The power button on the TV won't turn it on and the remote doesn't turn it on and this Smart TV is only 3 or 4 months old. Any ideas???

Power light blinks 5 times]]> I have a 40 inch Magnavox 40ME313V/F7 tv. When I plug it in the red led light comes on. Then when I press the power button the led will blink 5 times and power on for a few seconds, It does show the Magnavox logo then I hear a static sounding noise from the speakers, and it turns off. with the led light still on solid. When I press the power button again the led will turn off, after pressing the power button a few more time (5-6 times) it will turn back on solid. Then I can hit the power button again and the led will blink 5 times and turn on for a few seconds and show the Mganavox logo again and I hear the same sound and it turns off again. This can be repeated many times over and over.

I have looked for anything obvious on the boards such as burn spots blown caps, ect. can not see anything wrong. I disconnected the t-con board and same thing happens with the exception of the logo of course, the back lights do turn on. Below are some pictures of the boards.

I was doing some calculations on my TI 5660 and mid calculation, the printer stopped, it displays an error (E and 0). I checked to see if the paper got jammed, or if the ink ribbon is stuck and both move freely. When I tried to reset the error, the printer makes a buzzing noise and the error is not cleared. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
