Am completely ignorant about these things and just purchased one but there are no operating instructions with it.

Aussie electrical current may be different than our US current. England's is. Converters are needed to plug in a toothbrush in England. Likely Australia is the same. We've lived on a dirt road for 32 years, in New Mexico. We call dust "enchantment." Mostly ignore it. Check out the electrical conversion from them to us. Likely there is way to convert their currency? to ours. Electrical currents.

not too good

Locate your model online and download the pdf file.

Hello.

Since you have been waiting so long, power off and then power on your notebook.

If a problem persists, I'd strongly suggest that you contact the place where you purchased it. You could have a corrupted operating system or hardware problem, and if so, the supplier where you purchased it should replace your operating system or notebook.

Hope this helps.

Don't ignore the error warning, insert the CD and let it to complete.

u repair ur operating system and then try it again

You can go here and read the manual for it and download it: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_2.1_User_Guide.pdf

it shows the hard disk of your laptop is un-detectable. check the hard disk connector/power, if u can or consult a technician for the same. if it does. then put the system disk in to cd drive and boot from it.

Please specify complete model and make details, so that I can give you the right manual.

I ignored the instructions which told me to follow instructions which were left out of the booklet. I just washed the breadpan and paddle with hot water and dish detergent, dried them, and made bread. Everything A-OK.
