ipod nano    

I just bought an Ipod Nano, and the same thing is happening and I haven't even been able to listen to 1 song! The sound would not come out; and I pushed buttons, etc. and the darn thing has been frozen for the past 3 hours. I'm ready to ship it back: isn't Apple supposed to have good products??

    My Ipod is disabled and i cant get it unabled can someone help me plz!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Why does my ipod keep freezing and skipping songs?

    I have the 80GB Ipod Classic, and for some reason it keeps skipping songs, for instance, whenever I go to look under a certain artist or a playlist of even just under "songs" I'll pick one and then it will skip one or two or ten, and there are some songs it just doesn't allow me to listen to anymore. Only on my ipod though, not on itunes. It also keeps freezing and will sometimes just stop in the middle of a song and skip to a new one. I've tried resetting it, and leaving it alone for a few days and letting it charge and leaving it off. Nothing seems to work.
    What can I do?

    I had this problem with my old 20GB classic ipod, it all started when I began using my ipod for my running trainings, every day it used to get worse freezing every 10 minutos or so, then I got ****** and bought a new 80GB classic Ipod, I have it for about 3 weeks now and guess what? It started freezing or skiping songs also. I did a test where I synced the same library on my both ipod and the songs being skipped on my new one wasnt being skipped on the old one, so its a problem with the song, then I though it could be any damage in the ipod HD but my new ipod has no reason to be damaged, the only impact that it might have recived is from my running trainings, but the impacts are really weak. Other test I did was trying to remove the song being skiped from the ipod, everytime I did that my ipod couldnt be ejcted, it kept showing me the following message "The ipod canot be ejcted because it contains files that are used by another aplication." I had to unplug my ipod without ejecting it.

    Try:

    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • New iPod keeps freezing and restarting.

    I just bought a 60GB white g5 iPod and loaded a bunch of music onto it. Whenever I try to play a song it goes back to the apple screen and restarts. If it actually plays a song it freezes and restarts when it needs to go to the next song, if it doesn't do that it will play about three seconds of a song and go to the next one and freeze and restart pretty soon after.
    A relative of mine has another new 60GB iPod and we tried loading music on it from my computer and it works just fine so it's obviously the iPod and not my files or anything. I tried doing a complete restore on the iPod and then putting music back on it but it still has the same problem.
    Is anyone else having a problem like this? Is there anything I can do, or should I just either contact Apple about getting it fixed/replaced or return it to the store?

    did you reset your ipod with the new update, it usually solves that problem, a lot of people were having problems under the factory settings

  • I just recieved a new ipod and i cant get it to work on tv

    I recently recieved an ipod 5th generation, and inside the case it came with the audio adapter for the tv, but the other end that connects to the ipod is a small usb adapter. my ipod only comes with the big charging connector on the bottom. the only thing on top is the headphones jack. can anyone tell me why i got this cable and can't use it with my ipod?

    i recieved a cable with the white and yellow rca jacks on one end and the small usb plug on the other. it seems to me to hook up to the tv, seeing as the ipod has the option for tv out when i got to any video that i have on the ipod.
    any other questions feel free to ask.
    thank you for your help.

  • Isight and connectivity-cant get it to work

    I cant get my isight to give me any signal. i have checked my isight camera on my laptop and it works. i have gone to imoveHD and in camera mode there is not triangle that comes up to select isight. i have gone to ichat av and under preferences and to the video button, and it tells me there is no camera connected. i plug it in, the green light starts on the isight and then goes off. comes back on when i use isight with my laptop. i searched my computer for isight stuff and the only thing that comes up is an isight audio plug in. i tried to install the isight 1.0.3 firmware upgrade and it says it is not able to install it on computers running 10.4. i tried to download the 1.0.2 but it keeps going to the 1.0.3. i tried to do this on my own but have failed miserably.
    any help would be appreciated.
    john

    Hello john,
    All required iSight firmware updates are applied automatically by the Tiger install. You do not need to worry about doing that again now.
    Neither should you be concerned about the green light blinking on and off. It is normal for iSight's green light to turn off after you connect it. The green light should come back on when iSight is in use, but that will likely happen once you get iSight working.
    Please post back the answers to the following questions if you do not get going with these suggestions.
    (0) I am confused by your first two sentences. Do you mean that the same iSight that works on your "laptop" will not work on your iMac?
    If so, and if your "laptop" is a Mac, then your iMac needs work. Some additional info will be needed if the following do not get you going.
    Your post sounds as though you may have tried using the hints in the How To Ensure Your iSight Is Functional FAQ.
    ](1) Is that true for BOTH computers?
    ](2) If so, are the results the same for both of your Macs?
    ](3) When you have your iSight connected to your iMac, does your iMac's System Profiler recognize your iSight as a Firewire device?
    (4) Have you repaired permissions since you updated to 10.4.2?
    (5) Do you regularly perform Mac OS X maintenance?
    (6) When you upgraded to 10.4.2, did you just click "install" when notified that there was an OS X update available?
    (7) Have you repaired permissions since you updated to 10.4.2?
    If the answer to (7) is "yes," I suggest you apply the new 10.4.3 Combo Update using the method suggested in How I Update My Mac OS X. If the answer is "no," repair permissions now and see whether that gets your iSight working.
    My best suggestions to get your iSight working with iChat AV are in Help for iChat AV 3 Problems.
    If you are new to iSight or iChat AV, you might also find some useful ideas in Using iSight with iChat AV.
    If you need to post back it will also be helpful if you will tell us:
    (8) Processor type and speed on all Macs to which you refer in your post.
    (9) Whether you have Possible hardware or software conflicts with iSight.

  • My iPod keeps freezing and then turning black and finally rebooting. Help?

    over the past 2 days my iPod just stops responding to my touch or me pressing the on/off button. I'm getting really worried although it has only happened 3 times.

Any help guys? It's GREATLY appreciated   . Just wanted to quickly say that it is also an iPod 5, remanufactured
