HELP - i'v lost the colour on my ipod

i have an ipod photo, and i'v had nothing but problems this last month.
i was forced to restore the ipod twice due to I/O device errors, and then i was told that the device could not be read from or written to, yet both my pc's would recognise the ipod, itunes would also, an would attempt to download songs onto it, with no success.
i read elsewhere on here that this kinda problem can be fixed by rolling back the update - and since i'v only had problems this last month, i figured i would try that.
HOWEVER, i can only find the updater for july, i think i need the one from november, as now, if i try restoring the ipod with either 02 07 2005 update or 10 01 2006 update i have a b/w screen, similar to the ipod mini screen. i have the do not disconnect symbol flashing but its not in red as it should be.
i'm at my wits end with this
please help

thanks but i'v sorted it now
i took it back to the shop i got it from an they jsut swapped it over for me...and upgraded me to the video ipod as the photo was discontinued
BONUS!!

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • I lost the songs of my ipod mini

    I lost the songs of my ipod mini. The settings says that I have 0 songs, but when I see the available size says that I only have 5.4 MB, so I thinks that my songs still there.
    How can I recover them?
    Thanks!!!

    I just recently had the same problem so hopefully my solution will help you (I know how frustrating it can be to be sans iPod).
    I used my USB cable to connect my iPod to my computer. I then opened up the folders in my iPod from "My Computer" (as if though it were another drive). You should see a folder called "iPod Control" or something like that. If you don't see it, it's probably because the folder is hidden.
    To see it, go to "tools" at the top of the screen, "folder options", the "view" tab, click on the "show hidden files and folders" and click OK. You should see the folder now. Inside that folder are all of your songs files.
    I copied all of the songs from my iPod onto my computer's hard drive. Once that was done, I followed instructions from the Apple website on how to restore my iPod. Once my iPod was restored to factory settings, I put all of the songs back onto my iPod as usual and it worked!
    Hope this helps.

    Help. Just got the latest and greatest ipod touch.  When trying to setup icloud, my email address is verified but when I touch settings, icloud, account tries unsuccessfully to verify account.

    Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
    When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

  • HELP!! Lost the "character palette" - how do I retrieve it?

    Somehow I managed to lose the "character palette" - it froze, and I couldn't get it to close, so I shut down the computer, but when it restarted, the character palette would not open. Or rather, a blank "ghost" of it appeared for a couple of seconds, then vanished. Clicking on either "show palette" or "hide palette" does nothing. I tried Spotlight to try to locate it on the hard drive, but nothing that showed up led me to it.
    Any ideas? Will I have to reinstall it?
    Thanks for any suggestions.......

    It sounds like you may have a bad font. That happened
    to me once and I discovered Character Palette was
    very sensitive to bad fonts. You might also try
    deleting:
    "/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.CharPal
    etteServer.plist"
    If removing that doesn't do it I suspect you'll have
    to start looking at your fonts to find the one
    causing the problem. In my case it was an old Adobe
    Garamonde font I had installed not long before I
    discovered the Character Palette problem.

    Hi Francine,

  • I helped my grandson update the OS on his ipod touch but now none of his apps are on the device.  We used their computer but he had only previously downloaded purchases directly to his ipod and never synced it. HELP

    My Grandson has a latest generation touch.  Up to this time the only way he downloaded apps was directly to the device via wifi.  We just recently installed itunes on their home computer and wanted to be able to sync purchases.  When we plugged the ipod in to the computer it prompted us to install the new OS which we did but now his apps are not on the ipod.  They do not show up in the itunes library either?  They have an Apple ID and the account (and gift card balance) shows on both the ipod and computer.  How do I get his apps back and then how do I sync things between teh two??????????

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings

    - Restore from backup

  • Lost the HSL and colour Adjustment tool bar

    I seem to have lost the HSL and Colour adjustment tool bar on the drop down on the right hand side of the screen.
    Can anybody help?
    thanks!!

    1. Right Click (Cmd-Click) on one of the other headings in the Develop Panel (Basic, Tone Curve etc). 
    2. This will bring up a selection menu of which items you want to be visible. 
    3. Re-select "Adjustments" and the HSL/Color/ B&W should reappear.
