Tried updating software but now frozen with itunes logo and usb cable picture on screen help

Tried updating ipod software, now frozen with itunes logo and usb cable picture on the screen. Computer will not reconise it

- If ou can turn the iPod off, then see if manually placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore. Next try DFU mode.

- If it always remains on let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try a rest and restore.

Was reading book official appearing pop up came up asking if I wanted to upgrade-I pressed to do it and iPad is frozen with iTunes image and image of charger cord

Was reading book on iPad
Pop up asked if I wanted to upgrade- probably stupidly I agreed- now iPad screen is frozen with ITunes symbol and image of charger cord on screen- tried turning it off - no help.

Carolyn explained how to reset the iPad. You don't need a tool or clip to do this...just your fingers.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
I do not think that is going to work, but try it.
You are getting the connect to iTunes message and that usually means that your iPad needs to be restored.

Help with ipod and computer shut downs...please.

I've posted this in two other forums to no avail -- lots of views, but no help.
My family now has 3 ipods (we only had 1 before) and yesterday I was trying to get them all set up - updates on the actual ipod, and I've updated itunes to 7.5. There are two issues here:
1) I am not able to register ANY of the ipods. I get all the way through the process to the very end and then it gives me an error message (after clicking the "No thanks" at the bottom of the page that asks if you want to download the videos) saying that the service couldn't be found? Or something like that. Ok, fine...I can handle not being able to register them for the time being.
2) I could keep itunes on all day long, as long as the Ipod is NOT CONNECTED. As soon as I connect the ipod (any of the 3 new ones - they all do the same thing) - ok, maybe not as soon as, but shortly thereafter - my entire computer shuts down. No error message, no blue screen of death, no warning - it just shuts down. It might be after I move a song from the "purchased" folder to the actual ipod. Or, as happened yesterday, it's right smack in the middle of a download (happened with both videos AND songs) and then of course, I have to try and purchase it again. I'm not even sure if it took my money already, but if it did, I'm SOL because I paid, but don't have the video/song since it never finished downloading.
I've done everything that's been recommended to me - I disabled all my start up programs (except the windows ones) and that didn't resolve anything.
My system is as follows:
Windows XP Home Edition (all updated except for microsoft office 2003)
Service Pack 2
AMD Athalon 64 3000+
1.81 GHz
2GB RAM
Not sure what else you need to know, to try and help me resolve this. Thanks for your time.

My wives MBP 13 inch 09 fans kicked on and computer shut down

after computer shut down, it did not respond to any keys, sleep light was on. I held down the power button and it turned off, then i powered it on and seems to be okay, anyone with any info on this as we are about to take it on vacation????? she did have a usb powered mouse plugged in, but that it

Sounds like a simple problem of doing something like playing a game that caused the CPU and/or GPU to work to the point of getting so hot it triggered thermal shutdown.
Oh, I'm assuming you have only one wife. Your topic title says "wives" which is plural. If there's more than one of them using the computer maybe that was the cause of the shutdown.

PLEASE HELP 2/24/13 Brand new iPod Touch 5th Gen froze on set up and I tried to shut it down and it was on the apple logo screen for a long time and it shut down but now it won't turn on! PLEASE HELPPPPPP

DESPERATE PLEASE HELP So my mother got herself an iPod touch 5g for Christmas and barely asked me to set it up last night, (BRAND NEW NOT OPENED YET).. I set it up not plugged into iTunes (directly on iPod). I was setting up a new iTunes account for her (got passed Wi-fi set up and location services) and as I was doing that, it mysteriously froze somehow. So I held the home button and power button down simultaneously, which I thought would restart the iPod/shut it down.. so it did, and it was on the apple logo screen for a LONG TIME.. and when I checked after a long time, it was black. I tried to turn it on, charge, and plug it into itunes (iMac computer) and it won't turn on!!!!! PLEASE HELP

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 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.

My caps lock was stuck and I shut down. Now it's coming back up in safe boot and asking for a password. It won't take my password, I believe because of the caps lock problem. So, how can I get in?

My caps lock was stuck when I shut down my computer. It is coming back up in safe boot (I had spilled liquid on it).
It's asking for my password - which has some lower case letters...So now how can I get in?
Is there a way to change this password or something?
I have a wireless keyboard, but it wasn't set up - so, It's not recognizing it.
Any ideas?

Take your computer to get the keyboard replaced, your lucky it didn't trigger the moisture sensor and brick your machine, so your chances of the machine working well after the keyboard is replaced is likely very good.
As long as the main keyboard is sending a caps lock signal, it's not going to work even if you get in.
If you need to remove files off the internal drive, use a Firewire cable (800 to 400 adpater may be needed) and hold T to boot the problem Mac into Firewire Target Disk Mode and connect the cable to another Mac, the hard drive will appear on the desktop which you can then remove/erase files.

Taskeng.exe and computer shutting down

Over the past few weeks, when i unplug my laptop, after a few minutes it will turn off. But if when i turn it on and it was not plugged in, it does not turn ff so it not a battery problem. However, after i turn it back on, the black box and taskeng.exe appears.
After following other threads on what to do, i cannot seem to find anything which works and with exams approaching, i really need this to be fixed. Any suggestions and are these related as this never used to occur?
Another box comes up stating thatwindows cannot find 'c:\programm files (x86)\search extensions\client.exe
please help!!

Hi Emily,
1.For the unexpected shut down event ,please check the Event Viewer to collect the related error information.
To check the Event Viewer
Event Viewer \Windows Logs \System
2.” taskeng.exe” please open your task manager and right click to open the properties of this process and verify its location. Meanwhile check the startup options in the task manager.
I agree with
S.Sengupta, you may need to get into the safe mode and run the antivirus software to have a full scan your machine .
To get into safe mode :
Restart the machine and press F8 before the Windows logo appears and then choose Safe mode from the
Advanced Boot Options screen
3.As for “ cannot find 'c:\programm files (x86)\search extensions\client.exe”.

Battery dies and computer shuts down

Up until about a week or two ago my MacBook was working fine. Yet now the battery is all messed up. Whenever the battery dies the whole system shuts down instead of going into safe sleep mode. I tried resetting the SMS, it worked at first, but then it just stopped going into safe sleep mode again. System profiler says that the battery is fine. I don't understand why it won't go into safe sleep mode, any help?

This might be a different problem, but I just recalibrated my battery for my Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (bought it it '07, replaced the battery once already). The battery life is actually worse now than before I recalibrated the battery. In fact, it turns itself off after a few minutes and I have to restart it, and the battery power is still reading 64%.

When I Connect My iPod, My Computer Shuts Down

I recently got Microsoft Vista, but I didn't know that this would cause problems to my iPod.
My iPod suddenly corrupted and I was pointless on what I needed to do. I kept receiving your ipod is corrupt messages from iTunes 7.1. Everytime I entered my computer, it froze, but didn't shut down.
Last night, I finally got into my computer and formatted it at default allocations on FAT32 with 27.8GB. I woke up earlier today and uninstalled 7.1 and downloaded 7.2 which works with Vista.
After plugging my iPod in and letting iTunes open up, a blue "Stop" message appeared saying the gibberish and the code 0x8F anthen there were other numbers in parntheses.
I hope I can gt soe help, Ireally don't want to splurge for another device or repair fees. Thanks in advance.

I went to this site that b noir has been helping people with but it says this stuff.

When I plug my phone into Dell laptop to update or sync computer shuts down

I'm trying to sync my iPhone with my outlook contacts or photos and plug my iphone into my DELL computer.It first recognizes the hardware and then computer screen goes blank saying that "beginning to dump physical memory" and "computer was shut down to prevent further damage". It happened to me when I just purchased a defective iphone. Once they replaced it with the new one, the problem was resolved. A couple of months later the same problem started again.
Is there anything anyone can suggest to do? I really want to keep my iphone up to date and sync with my outlook contacts and calendar...

I have exactly the same thing with my new iPhone when syncing to my Dell XPS; now on my second phone handset too. The same message comes up in a blue Dos screen.
Can we have some serious replies please! this is a £2500 laptop, not a toy!

You need a new one. Something probably got fried when the phone overheated.

1st generation iPod making computer shut down since Tiger

Dear Gang,
I need some help. Since upgrading to Tiger, my 1st generation iPod now makes my PowerMac G5 shut down the second I put it in the firewire port on the front of the computer.
Anyone else had this problem? Any advice?
TIA,
Mark

Anyone?
Bueller?

I am trying to lauch an app on my itouch. When I try, it opens for about 2 seconds and then shuts down. I have deleted the app, reset my itouch and download 3 times with no success. Any suggestions?

I am trying to lauch an application on my ipod touch. When I try, it opens for about 2 seconds and then immediately closes. I deleted the application, reset and restarted my ipod and then download the application again. Still no success. The application is legit: Crunchtime for Contracts.
Any suggestions?

I suppose the app has problems with your soft and hardware. Or maybe its a known bug of that app.
Try Uninstalling->Rebooting->Installing->Rebooting.

Totally frozen with itunes logo and usb CABLE

What gives?
I've tried resetting per the reset page and it has not worked..

What happens when you connect the iPod to your computer and try to restore via iTunes? The screen is telling your to connect the iPod to your computer with the USB cable and restore via iTunes.
