Transfer iPod to iTunes, Copy iPod and iPhone music to PC or Mac, iPod rip

We have a problem where MobileMe and Outlook lost all contacts.

 Need to safely copy contacts off the iPhone outside of iTunes.
Touch copy can get that info out.

It's simple ... yet the error sounds bad.

attempting to copy the disk iphone failed ... you do not have enough access privileges for this operation.

You are prompted to save the changes to the Normal.dot or Normal.dotm or Normal.dotm global template every time that you quit Word

Could be a virus or a Word plug-in problem.

Windows XP Help. How to choose or change what program a file opens with.

Usually the setup program will "Associate" file types with it's program, but if you uninstall a program or a program has a glitch your computer might not know which program to use to open the file type (example a .pdf file).

1. Hold Shift Key and Right Click the saved file to get the menu. 
(if you are in a Browser like Internet Explorer you have to save the file first - or use a file that you already saved somewhere).

2. Choose  "Open With"    and ---> "Choose Program"

3.  Single Click the program you want. (highlight it.)

4. Check the box "Always use this ... "

5. Click OK.

Dell Optiplex GX280 (circa 2004) USB problems?

Check the Dell website to make sure you have the latest Main Board drivers. There was a conflict that occured when you have a USB key board & USB Mouse and it interfering with new USB device setup programs. To be sure I updated the dell drivers, put on a new Microsoft Mouse (still USB because this CPU doesn't have PS2 ports) -- rebooted, then installed the HP printer software (without plugging in the printer-- check the box and say don't detect printer now), after install, then reboot computer, then after reboot connect the printer & the computer will find it and say new device found .. And youre done. http://support.dell.com
