Ipod 2nd gen frozen during update and will no longer sync

So I was updating my ipod software and then an error message popped up. Now my ipod is frozen with the apple logo and an empty bar. Itunes no longer recognizes it either. I don't know what to do...

I would try putting it in recovery mode. See:

  • HT4972 ipod touch locked up during update and will not restore

    My son was given an ipod touch by his cousin.  He used it for a while and then decided to update the os.  We followed the instructions but during the restore process the ipod shows the picture of cable connecting to itunes.  It is connected but itunes does not see it and I can not get it to do anything else.  I went to the apple store and spoke with them and they told me to do a hard reset and try again.  I did to no avail.  Does anyone have an idea of how to repair this???

  • ITunes removed contacts from iPhone and will no longer sync

    iTunes 10 on OS X Lion removed all my contacts from my iPhone 3G and will no longer sync them. I had about 500 contacts, I'm not about to enter them manually. Now I have no idea who is calling or texting. This is absolutely ridiculous! There is absolutely no support!

    If iTunes will not sync contacts to your iPhone4...
    Go to
    Settings
    Main, contacts etc.
    scroll down to "Contacts"
    under "contacts you see a list. Choose the menu "Default Account"
    You will see a choice between "From My Mac" and "iCloud"...select "From my Mac"
    This solution worked for me!

  • My daughter's ipod touch got hot while charging and will no longer turn on.

    My daugther's ipod touch got hot and will no longer turn on.  Is there a solution to this problem or is the ipod fried?

    I'm not sure if it's fried or not, but try rebooting the device by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously for about 15 seconds or so. Hopefully you will see the Apple logo.

  • Video's removed from iPhone and will no longer Sync

    I have recently purchased an iPhone 3G and have been setting it up over the last few days.
    I eventually discovered that I can convert videos from my old phone to .mp4 format, added them to iTunes and sync'd with teh iPhone and was able to view them on my iPhone with full sound and colour, all good...
    However I have just tried adding some more and found that all the video's i had previously sync'd have dissappeared from my iPhone, and iTunes will no longer allow me to sync them back to the phone.
    I do not get an error message, and it appears when i drag and drop the files to the attached device, that it is ok, and then nothing happens.
    Can anyone tell me why these video's will no longer appear on my iPhone.

    Not really very helpful, was looking for some hint and tips to get round something of that nature, if indeed it is...
    However, as i stated before, the video's were transfered before, and worked, and then removed and will no longer transfer?

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen disconnects from itunes and turns off while syncing

    My Ipod touch i try to connect to itunes and sync it with the itunes, but everytime there is a problem. The problem is that every time it gets like maybe 10 - 30 % done syncing the ipod cuts to a black screen and it is gone from itunes window. Also occasionally the usb device is unrecognized and wont turn on for a minute of holding both the power and home buttons.
    I have tried these things
    1) syncing from a different computer
    2) uninstalling itunes and other components
    3) Deleting the current firmware and downloading the one of itunes
    4) Checked for updates
    5) used a different usb port and ports on the back of the computer
    6) Restart the services (Apple mobile device ect.)
    7) Restarting computer
    8) Erase all contents and settings from the ipod but that doesnt work because when it is done it gets stuck on the apple logo with the loading circle but never turns on.
    I have no idea what is wrong with my ipod if you have any questions or help post them, and i should get back to you asap.

    Try this before you go to Apple:
    Specific error codes and resolutions:
    Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off of the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

  • Palm m515 lost power and all data and will no longer Sync to Palm Software

    I guess I waited too long between charges and my Palm Lost all its data - however it all backed up on my work PC.  The issue is that when I try to sync it, it asks me to select a user and then I get the following error message "HotSync operation was interrupted.  Some of your data was NOT backed up.  For details, tap HotSync Long on the HotSync screen."  However there are no details to be found, it just says "HotSync operation was terminated. Some of your data was not NOT backed up."
    I am hoping that there is something I can do without reinstalling the software since 1 - all of my information going back to 2002 is only on my computer and 2 - I am not able to install apps on my work computer. 
    Thank you!!!
    Post relates to: Palm m515

     I went to C:\Program Files\Palm - there was no PalmOne folder.  The folders in this folder are _PqiTemp_, Components, helpnote, Image Library, PergolC, Photodesktop, Themes, Update and USB_Driver.  In PergolC there was a folder called backup, which had pictures in it.  I renamed it oldBackup and it still isn't working. 
    Please let me know what else to try.  I have selected my name as the user each time.

  • App locked and will no longer sync

    I downloaded The Weather Channel app and it worked fine for a day, then it locked up. I deleted it from my iPhone 4 and synced. When I opened the app, some widgets that are supposed to live at the bottom of the apps screen were missing. I deleted it from my phone and from iTunes, downloaded it again and syced again. Now it will not even sync. I can see it in my apps in iTunes, but it is not on my phone. Suggestions?

    If iTunes will not sync contacts to your iPhone4...
    Go to
    Settings
    Main, contacts etc.
    scroll down to "Contacts"
    under "contacts you see a list. Choose the menu "Default Account"

  • Itouch has frozen mid-update and will not shut off or restart

    My 5th generation iTouch has recently begun downloading the newest iOS update.  The update did not complete (thus a restart has yet to occur); however, I am unable to even power off the device (held the power button in excess of one minute without it shutting off the device).  I just downloaded the ITunes 12 update, but have some tasks to complete before restarting my computer (to allow for a possible recovery restart).  Also, when plugging in the iTouch to the computer, the device isn't recognized or accessible.
    How can I restart the device without using a recovery option?
    Thank you in advance for your much appreciated attention and  support provided by the community.  

    - Try letting the battery fully drain and then charge and try a reset
    Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try connecting to iTunes and try making a backup.
    - Last restore the iPod using Recovery mode if necessary.

  • Why does my Ipod 2nd Gen lose battery fast and screen wont work?

    While on Youtube, my touch screen stopped responding. So, i charged it to full. Then, it still wouldnt work or unlock. So, I restored it. After this, the screen didnt work, and the battery depleats 5X as fast as normal. Hard reseting doesnt work. What happened, what do i do?

    You may have some corruption that is now in your backup.  I would restore to factory defaults/new iPod and see if that fixes the problem.  If not I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
