i need some help lol

laurens lap top did something weird a few weeks ago. we turned it off one night then on the next day and all her programs on her desktop and her background had gone.

all her files and dtuff are still there and so are the programs just hidden in a file deep in windows lol

any ways she went to upload to music on to her ipod and had to sort of re install itunes, itunes was still on her desktop and in program files so we were hoping it would still have all her music on the library etc but apparently not

so our problem is how can we get back the old itunes and her music library because atm she only has the music that is on her ipod and she doesnt want to sync it to the new itunes cos it will delete it

sorry for the novel

any help would be great

Thanx guys

several scenarios ; the active desktop on background has been turned on and thats why the icons went missing

or explorer crashed/isnt functioning properly

if you want to find the files, do a windows search for *.mp3 and *.aac and *.mp4 files and copy them all to an external source (hdd or dvd)

or it could be a simple case of the profile becoming corrupted. check under c:\documents and settings for multiple instances of laurens login profile, if shes kept default directories most of the ipod music will be under her documents folder or tucked away somewhere in c:\program files

-D

Have you tried system restore?

Your problem is Luke that I bet they don't make an R34 pump - heaps of people told me that R33 pumps are exactly the same, but Nissan confirmed that they definitely are not. They also aid anything but oem pumps will root your engine. But I suppose Nissan say that about all non-oem parts.

Same as clutch fans - everyone tells you that R33 and R34 are the same, but I found out the hard way they are slightly different bolt pattern.

cause apprently they are exactly the same, which now i found out they arnt. Hope they can swap it over no probs. Now i wish i brought genuine.

You got an RB30 one didn't you? The one they say will fit, only to find a bolt hole doesn't line up?

Common thing for idiots sitting behind a desk to do. As Andrew said, with shit like that, always go direct to Nissan. I'm able to get good pricing from Lakeside, want me to see how much one is for you and availability?

I'm going to be getting a AM dump front pipe as soon as Andrew has made one for me, do you guys think it needs heat wrap... keeping in mind I run stock boost?

im getting one too. :ninja:

id heat wrap it, but thats just cause im lazy and cant be arsed with heat shields.

also, when the f**k did i hit 3000 posts? :P

and i have a trader rating... i gotta start paying attention.

Good choice Talbo, Andrew makes AWESOME systems, you won't be disappointed. I'm in two minds about heat wrapping but I think on a standard street car, it's pretty pointless

Thanks Luke, confirmed what I was thinking :P

I'm getting one his hi flow cats too :ninja:

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
