Just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box turned it on and accidently hit clickwheel or button and eveything is in language other than english.  How do I get it back to english without being able to read symbols.

just took my iPod classic 160GB out of box, turned it on and accidentially hit a button changing the language from english to something else (chinese or japanese).  All I see now is symbols.  How do I turn it back to english without knowing what any of these symbols mean.  I started clicking buttons and click wheel and can't seem to get to any section with various language options.  Please some help me get it back to english.

There are two options. The first is to learn whatever language you have it set to, the second is to find someone else with an iPod Classic and read the English menu and follow it in your iPod. I also believe you may be able to set language perfunces from within iTunes while the iPod is docked, providing they are in English.

    Don't try to use iCloud for this.  Instead, import them to your computer using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  That will import photos and videos from your camera roll.  You might also want to back it up before repairing or replacing it.  You can do this by connecting it to your computer, opening iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up; and to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  This backup can later be restored to your repaired or replaced phone to recover your data.

  • Upgraded ipad to io6 while in Moscow Russia now everything is in Russian. How do we get things back to English?

    We upgraded our ipad to io6 while in Moscow Russia  and now when we go to the app store everything is in Russian. How do we get things back to English?

    Maybe Apple should put that in the small print beside the "Install Update" button.
    I already tracked down the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2371
    information and did it and it did not work. I did that BEFORE I found the info on going to the bottome of the page and making sure the little flag was a USA flag, which it already was.
    Neither of these things fixed the problem.
    I will gladly try (with great appreciation) Anything that anybody has to suggest.
    Will "Set to Default" get me back to USA since we are back in USA or will it change additional to Russian? What all will "Set to Default" change?

  • Hi, Just bought an ipod classic 160gb and i notice that when I turn the volume down all the way, music is still heard, i.e. I cannot turn it down lower than a certain volume. Is there a fix for this? Thanks

    I've got a feeling that's the way it is. I know that if I turn the volume down all the way, I can still hear the music very softly -- which is great for listening when I have a migraine!

  • Can I use my Leopard (OS 10.5.8) to write a downloaded Windows file to a cd without being able to read the file?

    Can I use my Leopard (OS 10.5.8) to write a downloaded Windows file to a cd without being able to read the file?

    Thanks, Zombaby.
    I was trying to drag and drop the file out of the download file instead of where the actual file was stored.
    This it doesn't do.
    All these little twists between the brain and  success. 
    Thanks again.

  • HT1351 I have just purchased an ipod classic 160GB and decided to sync my itunes music and videos that I purchased via itunes.  All the music sunk but it didnt sync my videos.  It said that they were in the wrong format.  What to do??

    I have just purchased an ipod classic 160GB and decided to sync my itunes music and videos that I purchased via itunes.  All the music sunk but it didnt sync my videos.  It said that they were in the wrong format.  What to do??   I would have thought if I bought the films from itunes it would be compatible with an ipod classic??  How do you change the video format?

    My mistake, it was nothing to do with format.  It woldn't sync because my movies were HD.  HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod.  Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions.  Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

  • IPad inadvertently set to Chinese - how do I get it back to English?

    I got my iPad yesterday and inadvertently set it to Chinese.  How do I get it back to English?  Thanks!

    I just bought 2 ipads and they both start in some sort of chinese or oriental language--both text showing on screen and voice.  Really?????  And guess what?  Not a ******* word written in the pack on how to change it.
    Oh, and the instructions to go to settings and change the language??? HelloOOO.  It is still on some funky start up screen with a million version of the word welcome, but not a clue as to how to change anything related to language. 
    And to really make my day, the 'express' online support requests a serial number which you get AFTER you can login and check settings. 
    Can anyone who speaks chinese please tell me what symbols to look for on buttons to click to get to the freaking setup screen?

    I have the same problem!  Let me know if you manage to sort it out.  My iPad did the same thing but to full restore from iTunes sorted that out. Have you tried that? No such luck with my iPhone.

  • Chinese. How do I get it back to English? Everything else is fine.

    I just returned from China and my App Store is stuck in Chinese. How do I get it back to English? Everything else is fine.

    Hello Travel Mom 1016
    All you would have to do is change the iTunes Store Country, simply go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region. After that select store that you want to use.

    i changed the lan uage of my iphone 3gs from english to spanish and then back to english. now it does not recognise enghlish but seems to be using a mix of languages. how do i get it back to english please?

    Please check in Settings: General: Keyboard: International Keyboards how many there are and which.
    If there is more than one you can either delete the ones that you don't use, or if you want to type on different ones at different times you can change between them using the key with a world that appears when you are using the keyboard.

  • My registration info is in Chinese in iTunes. How do I get it back to English?

    When registering my iPad my iTunes screen went from English to Chinese. Not sure how I managed that. How do I get it back to English?

    Thank you. I was having the same problem (registration was in English and then the Chinese screen appeared). Reseting the iPad solved this problem for me.
    I unplugged the iPad from the computer and then held down the menu and wake button at the same time until the unit reset (the screen goes black and then the white apple logo reappears). I plugged the iPad back into the computer and the screen was in English.
    If anyone is curious about the screen before I reset here is what it said:
    免费的“查找我的 iPad”
    免费设置“查找我的 iPad”，帮助您找到丢失的设备、远程锁定屏幕或擦除其中数据。您还可以找到 iPhone 或 iPod touch。   了解详细信息
    Here is what the translation appeared as:

    Nothing you can do but physically look for it.  If it's offline it can't be tracked.

  • HT1657 I rented a movie and accidentally hit the menu button and now I can figure out how to go back and watch it . When I try to press rent again it says you have already downloaded this movie go to settings and check for downloads but I can find it.

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.
