Nano stuck on error msg: Read Verify Scan

I may have posted my original post in the wrong thread, so I thought I'd post here.
I turned on my iPod Nano and have some sort of a frozen scan screen that is at 0%. It has this information on the screen:
Scan takes a while (all day now is a little too long I'd say :D)
Battery check
Volts=478
Level=10
Charge OK !
Canceled
0%
Tried to reset, but screen is frozen in this scan position
Tried turning off or on - screen frozen
Tried hold on and off - screen frozen
Tried the update:
I thought maybe an update would get things moving along, but when I connect to my PC I don't get the connection logo, and the iPod just remains in the frozen scan state, a scan this is not working anyway.
IN other words, I have a frozen error message and I can't do anything with the iPod.
Anyone ever have this problem?
And it's not like it's never been connected - it has - and I've never had any problems. This is the first.
Sony Vaio Windows XP Pro

As I mentioned in my original post:
Tried to reset, but screen is frozen in this scan position
Tried turning off or on - screen frozen
Tried hold on and off - screen frozen
Tried the update
Tried restore
Tried connecting to PC
But nothing will budge that error message on the screen. Looks like it's a major technical problem with the iPod Nano.
Sigh.............

  • Read Verify Scan Weird result "11ror!"

    Had some problems with my ipod for no real reason, never droped or anything, but the other day stopped responding totally. After leaving it on charge over night managed to at least to get it to show sad ipod face, or sometimes the folder icon. After about 40 trys managed to get it into diagnostic mode. Ran the Read Verify Scan in th IO harddrive option, and it returned the result of 11ror!. I am guessing that this basically means the harddrive is screwed. The computer wont even recognise that it is attached at all.

    The Sad iPods icon, clicking sound or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
    1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Still can't see your iPod?
    Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
    3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    There are also some cases being reported that some unrecognized iPod being able to be erased with Linux, then reconnect the iPod with the original computer and do a Restore there.
    8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
    9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
    “Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
    - I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
    - I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
    - I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
    My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
    Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
    10. Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
    Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
    Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
    Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
    11. Put your iPod in disk mode and plug with a computer, and have a boot of your computer using the Mac OS or XP startup disks, hope that your iPod will be seen on Mac's Disk utility and allow you to do a Erase there. Or, under the XP, you will be able to find your iPod there for you to do a Restore.
    But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
    I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

  • Read Verify Scan Message on Screen

    I started my ipod this morning and got some kind of diagnostic screen, which I tried to negotiate through and now it is completely locked up and says:
    Read Verify Scan
    Scan takes a while
    Battery Check
    Volts=476
    Level=10
    Canceled
    MENU to continue
    Although pressing menu does nothing and plugging into the computer, it's not recognized. Does anybody know what this screen means?

    yes, it means u are in diagnostic mode. I think because u canceled it, it may have frozen up. Try holding menu and center for 6-10 seconds. post back

  • Disk Utility error msg:  Filesystem verify or repair failed!!!

    Ok so after erasing my partitioned HD I wanted to use the rest of my HD on my start up HD, So I pulled the expander in the partition window to resize the volume of the HD. Then I clicked apply to resize the HD and ended up with a Partition Failed message that stated
    Partition failed with the error:
    Filesystem verify or repair failed.
    What do I do from here to get my current HD at full capacity?
    The current size is 19.9 GB and it should be at 60 GB.

    Ok, so I had a partitioned hard drive, and I wanted to expand the start up drive and delete the unnecessary partition. So in disk utility I clicked on partition and deleted the partition I didn't want.
    Then I used the expander thing in the bottom corner of the start up hard drive box and clicked apply to enlarge it, but filesystem verify or repair failed message appeared.

    The problem you are having can only be fixed by an HP Field Tech. I am one and I've fixed this issue before. It's an advisory that's only distributed internally at HP. Put in a service ticket. Any tech that has the latest s/n changer can fix this. Once the tech has booted the s/n changer, they'll put the info in like always, only this time, there will be two extra options. For any technician reading this, it'll ask something related to a 25-digit hex value that says (hit enter if unknown.) Instead, enter 25 zeros and hit enter. Then, on the softstylus option, just hit enter to leave it at defaults. That completes the latest version of the tool. This should fix your problem.
