Ipod updater not works

how do i download it (ipod updater)? every link i find takes to itunes 7.0 and then sometimes i do download it but it downloads some piece of paper to read it, and the one i still have in my computer says ipod not supported or something like that i just need it to do a restore on my ipod if you know another way other that itunes7.0 than plz help

I had the same issue after updating iTunes and iPod on slot-loading iMac running 10.4.7. I plug in the iPod and the "Do Not Disconnect" display comes on. Several iPod resets net the same results.
Attaching the iPod to this computer, I get the same results. System Profiler shows this:
iPod:
Version: 0.02
Bus Power (mA): 500
Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec
Manufacturer: Apple
Product ID: 0x1209
Serial Number: (removed for privacy)
Vendor ID: 0x05ac (Apple Computer, Inc.)
Is there anyway to rerun the iPod Updater?

Ipod Updater not working

Keep getting iPod Service error when launching iPod update. iTunes does not recognize the iPod G5 either. Says the software needs to be reinstalled. I've done this several times with the same results.
Had no problem with my other ipod G5. Could this be a defective unit?
Thanks for any help.

If iTunes does not recognize neither iPod and you are gettin iPod Service errors, most likly its not a defective iPod but a problem with iTunes itself or a PC glitch. Here is a Link to fix your "iPod Service" errors and how to get your iTunes for windows to recognize your iPod or both iPods http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716

Ipod updater not working in Itunes 7

Whener I either try to update or restore my 60GB 5G ipod to firmaware 1.2 using the new itunes 7. I get the message: "There was a problem downloading the ipod software for the ipod "mypod". The required file cannot be found. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later". I'm connected to a stable broadband internet connection and can access the itunes music store for example. I've tried reinstalling itunes 7 and rolling back the firmware using the old ipod updater utility. No luck. Any ideas.
Cheers

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Ipod update not working

I can't add any purchased music to my Ipod. It keeps telling me that my software is too old and to download the latest version. I've done that and I still can't add purchased music and that message still comes up...

Paul, welcome to discussions! I have to ask what may be a stupid question. When you say you downloaded the latest version of the updater, did you actually open the updater & run it? You most open it the updater & run it, connecting iPod only when asked in order to update your iPod.

Downloaded Update Software now Ipod is not working - Please Help

Here's the deal I did that now the Ipod just blinks the circle with the line through it and says do not disconnect. Nothing happens. Has the new software corrupted my Ipod? Can anyone Help

I tried updating my iPod, and ever since it has not worked at all. If I hold in the lock & home button, it will tell me to plug it into iTunes. Once I do that, it says it will restore but every time, restoring it fails. My iPod is not working at all, and I really have no idea what to do. It is just a black screen, and occasionally the white apple will appear as if it were turning on, but it won't turn on. I just need some suggestions on what to do!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod is not working at all when i plug it into my laptop i get an itunes sign and below that plugin sign also it says new software found however it first asks me to install the software disc which i dont have it with me now can you plz check for the same and reply asap...please thanks.

The link I and Ingo provided included:
1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
That is more than quicktime and iTunes. Follow all the instruction in the link for removing and reinstalling the Apple software.

Please Help. Ipod Screen Not Working

My screen on my ipod does not work any more.
I have tried restoring/updating it.....everything!!
problem is this is my second due to a faulty battery on the first which apple exchanged free of charge for me so I ma not sure if I am entitled to another ipod or what!!!
If anyone knows how to get the screen working or about 2nd exchanges then please help,
Thanks,
Louise x

If you truly have tried resetting/restoring, then it's time for service. Is it still under warranty, because if so, it won't matter that you have had one exchange already?

My daughter's ipod is not working and says it needs to be plugged into a computer. Can she sync to someone elses mac?

My daughter is away at camp and ipod is not working and says it needs to be connected to itunes. She does not have her laptop with her. Can she sync to her itunes on someone else's mac?

Yes, when she plugs it in to another person's mac, tell it transfer purchases, then authorize the computer by going to store, and click authroize computer. If the iPod is in recovery mode
Then I don't think she can have her music apps etc. on there after she plugs it into the computer. If it just needs a charge
When iTunes opens on the computer, quit it, and do not let the iPod sync with the computer, just answer no or ignore to any questions asking if you want to sync.

Mac Book Software Update not working, iTune will not update because of that, iPhone 4 won't connect to iTunes because iTunes is not updated. Mac v.10.5.8, iTunes v.10.5.2, iPhone4 iOS 6

Mac Book Software Update not working (Software Update does not have any new software for your computer at this time), my current MacBook version is 10.5.8.
As a result I can't update iTunes, version 10.5.2 (This software requiers Mac OS X version 10.6.8 or later)
Now when I connect my iPhone 4, version iOS 6 iTunes can't connect to iPhone (The iPhone "XXXXX's iPhone" cannot be used because it requiers iTunes version 10.6.3 or later.)
so in a nutshell can't use iphone 4, because iTune is not updated and will not update because Mac Book is not up to date and will not update either.
Please help.
Thank you

IPod (5G) and iPod (Classic) Not Working

_*iPod 5G:*_
I bought the iPod 5G 2-3years back ago. It was working all fine. Few months back I accidentally dropped the iPod. After this, the iPod was not working at all. None of the buttons works. But i am still able to put in on HOLD or even restart/put to disk mode. I am using it as a 80gb External Hard Drive.
*iPod Classic (120GB):*
I bought this iPod from Bangkok in December 2008. Later, in March, used to restart by itself and freeze suddenly when a track is being played. I had some tracks on it then. Whenever i try to play any track it showed the time 00:00 and started to play that particular track after this 'click' sort of sound from the inside, possibly from the hard drive. It even freezes during the RESTART process. So I had to bring it to a stable condition by restarting it during it is being restarted. My computer is not able to identify it. I have tried to restore it a couple of times now. Sometimes, I am able to get through the RESTORE process but most of the time my mac/ipod freeze together and wont come back to normal until and unless the usb wire is pulled out forcefully. Well, whenever iTunes recognizes it, I try to sync music. I have about 200 tracks in this one playlist. Whenever i try to sync it, the ipod freezes together with my mac. The sync process stops without copying all the tracks to my ipod. After that the screen goes black and then comes back with a dull APPLE logo displayed.
+Information on iPod Shuffle:+
My dad is going to Bangkok tomorrow. I asked him to get me a Shuffle. The new one that talks. I use the ipod mainly in my car (using the aux). There are no buttons on the Shuffle as everything in situated in cable of the ear phones. How am i going to use the controls if my connect the AUX (from my car's stereo) to my iPod? I wont be able to change tracks, pause or even shut down the ipod. Another thing is that whenever the ear phone plug is disconnected from the ipod, while it is playing a track, the track gets automatically paused.
This is very long, consumed a lot of time for you to read/for me to write. I guess making it longer would help me to kill time as I am running a ZERO OUT format on the 2nd ipod I own. :P
Thank You,
Samin

The classic bought in December 2008 would still be covered by warranty. Have you arranged for service for it?
