I restored my ipod but the same message keeps popping up all the time

I have a 2GB iPod Nano, and while I was trying to charge it today a message popped up from iTunes saying that the ipod is in a recovery mode and I must restore it so that it works with itunes. But when I restored it the same message popped up again. I restarted the computer and the laptop, I reinstalled itunes but I still get the same message. The ipod works and charges fine but it's empty now and I can't upload my songs to it because itunes keeps giving me the "restore" message. Please help me, I don't know what to do!

a relentless recovery mode message like that can sometimes be caused by a Windows drive letter confusion. for troubleshooting advice on that possibility, see the following document:
"iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore"

    Hi
    So just close iTunes and re-open iTunes thats it and that worked for you?
    When you say reset your settings do you mean to factory settings? As my iPod was swapped at the store for a new one and the problem is still there...
    Thanks.

  • HT4623 I recently downloaded ios 6.1.3 in my iphone s3 but could not install. The message on the phone is " unable to install update. An error occurred installing ios 6.1.3. I have tried several time but the same message keep appearing. what do i do.

    I recently downloaded ios 6.1.3 in my iphone 3, but unable to install the download. This message keeps showing "unable to install update, an error occurred installing the ios 6.1.3 I have tried several times but the same message keeps coming. What is the solution?

    There is no such thing as an iPhone 's3'.  There is a 3G which can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1 and a 3GS which can be updated to iOS 6.1.3.
    Which model iPhone is this?

    i want to get my photos and this app that has my movies on it, but my ipod touch is locked and i forgot the passcode. normally i would have to restore my ipod but how do i keep my content if my ipod touch says its never been backed up?

    If when you connect the iPod to your computer yu can't make a backup:
    - Contact a data recovery company
    - Maybe via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos

    After searching, found a few answers and tried one last thing-- allowing Safari to accept Cookies. I never use Safari so never changed any settings in it ever. However, I guess an update along the way turned off cookies in it and that was the blockage. Once I allowed Safari to use cookies I was able to redeem the gift card. SO, glad this board is here for these types of questions!!!!

  • Send the same   message to two receivers with some  time difference..

    Hi
      I want to send the same message to Two receivers  with the slight time difference.. becuase  but not at the same time.. if the same time means.. just we can  specify the two receivers in the one receiver determination..
       but  if i want to send the   same message to Two  reveivers with the time difference means..(after sending the  message to first receiver.. after  some time gap.. i need to send the  message to second receiver..
      this type of scenarios how can we do.. is it possible to do with out BPM...  please suggest me the solution..
    Thanks
    Jain .P

    Hi Jain,
    With BPM you can easily do it.
    i am giving you the steps:
    1)first add a receive strep to get your message
    2)then, put a receiver determination step with a multiline receiver container element assigned to its Receivers property.
    3)then, put a block in dynamic mode(ie. ForEach/ParForEach mode) and assign the multiline receiver container element to its multiline element and assign a simple(single line) receiver container element to its current line property.
    4) add a send step within the block, choose Receivers List in its Receiver From property and choose the current line receiver element in its Receivers property.
    5) then add a wait step in the BPM, in its type select Wait Specified Time Period and then mention the duration in your desired time unit.

    DVD Driver keeps ejecting DVD and requesting a Blank, I insert a Blank and the same message keeps coming up, any suggestions ?

    Hi
    a. You are using Cheap media as Memorex, NoName etc DVDs - I only use Verbatim
    b. You use a DL-DVD or DVD+/-RW type of media - Old Macs can not use DL-DVDs - I only use DVD-R
    c. Your DVD-burner needs a cleaning - Cleaning DVD without liquid but the brush type
    d. Is there OK free space on Your Start-Up (Macintosh HD) hard disk - I never go less than 25Gb free.
    e. Can You describe the material used to create Your DVD
    - Video Codec/s
    - Photo file formats
    - Audio file formats
    iDVD can not use all but only a few of them - still it tries and then often fails
    Just to start by.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • After writing into serial port, the same message gets bounced back into the Inqueue also. If anyone know how to avoid this, please rpely.

    Hi,
    After writing into serial port, the same message gets bounced back into the Inqueue also. If anyone know how to avoid this, please reply.
    Thanks,
    Ganesh

    If you disconnect the cable going to the serial device, do you still get the echo? If so you have something going on in the port setup. If disconnecting the cable stops the echo then the device you're talking to is doing it - which would be my bet. One thing to check is whether this might not be normal operation. I have seen devices that if a command was successful, it simply echo'd back the command string you had sent. Also many serial devices have setting for specifying whether they are to echo commands.

    How do I download software for a HP Laserjet Professional P1100? I keep getting the same message when I have downloaded the file "Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers" Help!

    You can change the settings in Security & Privacy to "Anywhere"...
    That should work... as to whether the printer driver will work, that's another question.
    Good luck,

  • HT204053 iCloud in a business. Do all the computers require the same apple ID to share all the files?? Can i have two apple accounts on one device?

    Neither of those Apps allow you to (easily) add iWork documents created or edited on the device to your online storage, you need to be using a webDAV server to be able to do that. In fact pretty much all you can add from the iOS device is photos and video without resorting to convoluted workarounds, intermediate apps or emailing finished documents to yourself. You can on the other hand view most of the content of dropbox/sugarsync through those apps, which in a lot of circumstances is useful, but without it working in both directions these apps are far from an ideal solution.
    E.g from the sugarsync website
    Yes, this may not be of too much interest to the OP, I was only trying to clarify the situation with iCloud.com/iWork for you.
    However that being said, there may be areas of interest for Computer to Computer syncing, given the recent changes made to iCloud.com/iWork. I wouldn't suggest iCloud sharing for archived documents, but for perhaps up to a couple of dozen documents in progress, iCloud sharing is now quite viable. If there is any chance at all of these documents being accessed on an iOS device then iCloud would become a preferred option to dropbox or sugarsync.

  • Filter function to one of the  arraycollections the same function gets applied to all the other  arraycollecti

    If I instantiate 3 arraycollections and point them to the
    same object with the = operator, then if I apply a filter function
    to one of the arraycollections the same filter function gets
    applied to all the other arraycollections when I refresh the
