4GB nano seems to be stuck in disk mode, shows as disk but no itunes

So my 4gig nano will mount in windows but will not show in windows. I've reset the thing about 20 times, restored with latest updater over and over again, tried forcing it into disk mode and then resetting it, but everytime I connect it to my win xp computer it will mount but not show in itunes. I've tried 3 different windows PCs and one was a fresh install. All have latest itunes. The ipod seems to work perfectly in all aspects except it will not show in itunes. Any suggestions?

Eh?
Try these. You may not have seen the last two.
iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes.
iPod does not appear in iTunes.
Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported.
Strange iPod behavior.

HT1339 My nano seems to be stuck in recovery mode. It won't restore...what do I do?

I've tried several times to restore. It looks as though it is finished. The iPod restarts and then shows up on iTunes, but immediately, I get a message that the iPod is in recovery mode and I need to restore it. I've tried a soft reset, and everything is up to date. Any help would be appreciated.

Be good to know what the diagnostic results are.
I've also just run into an issue where I couldn't restore an iPod with a corrupt file system, and the "super fix" in that linked article wasn't working for me. I've run across a potentially useful workaround.
iPod Classic went on the fritz today just after syncing. Couldn't restore via iTunes, kept getting 1439 errors, Windows wouldn't format as FAT32, claimed the "Volume is too big for FAT32". Finally tracked down EaseUS Partition Master Home Edition (Free) and formatted as FAT32 with 128k clusters. The iPod is filling back up again. Might be worth a shot here...

My Ipad 2 seems to be stuck in earphone mode?

My Ipad 2 seems to be stuck in earphone mode and I cannot get it to play sound out the speaker! I have tried putting some earphones in and pulling them out several time but with no success. I have tried restarting and doing a hard reboot. Help please?

Two solutions in the past were -
1. Plugging in headphones, playing music, pausing play, unplugging the headphones and resuming play successfully!
2. Plugging in the power and the headphones, unplugging the headphones, using the volume control on the side to adjust the volume, and then unplugging the power!

My iPhone seems to be stuck in headphone mode. I tried plugging in and unplugging the earbuds several times, but it still does not work. Any other suggestsions?

My iPhone seems to be stuck in headphone mode. I already tried plugging and unplugging my headphones, but it still is stuck in headphone mode. What can I try next?

I've read other methods but they didn't work for me.
You can try cleaning the jack with a q tip, blowing into the jack and then pulling in and out the headphones (thi worked for my friend).
The toothpick trick which i got from this link here : http://science.opposingviews.com/turn-headphone-mode-off-iphones-15782.html
Ive also heard although it isn't the best, using an air compressor to clean out any gunk in the jack that can help aswell.
I'm utterly frusturated at this point. I'm just going to go to the Apple Store and see what they have to say. If of these at home remedies don't work i suggest you do to and brace yourself for repair costs.
Best of luck

There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

Try these steps. If it doesn't work the first time, try a second time.
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off. (If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.)
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on. (Note: If you see the screen that shows you are out of battery, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.)
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode..."
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Hope this helps!

My Mac wont start, seems to be stuck in sleep mode

Hello there,
So just recently my computer died while in sleep mode. I put it on the charger and let it be. However, now when I turn on the power it seems like it is stuck in sleep mode, there is no connecting chime (when powered up) the keyboard fails to work as a means of getting the notebook to start up. The fan and or disk is running really slow at first but then gets louder. I am not skilled with my Mac, was wondering if there is an easy fix or I should get on my way to the repair store.
PS - I have tried the command+option+escape to kill all the apps running but that seems to not work? anything else i should try?
Please help.

Hold down the Power button for 10 or 15 seconds until the computer shuts down. Then restart it if possible. If it won't restart then make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

Hi so my ipad is stuck in recovery mode. Once I connected to itunes to install the ios 8 software it says that its eligible for the request build and I tried the sudo nano command and that didn't work either. Please help thanks!

Ipad mini stuck in recovery mode.
My itunes is up-to-date.
Sudo nano command is not working.

yes i am sure. This are the exact words... "The iPad "iPad" could not be restored. The disk you are attempting to use is full. (Removing files and emptying the recycle bin will free up additional space". i tried some options, hard reset, redsnow, tinyumbrella but still it's stuck.
