60Gig iPod wont work when Shuffel does...

Anybody?
I've been surfing around these forums and have tried everything short of uninstalling and reinstalling my USB ports. I have all the newest versions of iPod and iTunes. But whenever I plug my 60gig iPod into the computer.. the computer beeps (new hardware found), but it does not show up in "My Computer" or "Disk Management". It does however show up in "Device Manager". It also has a horrible tendency to bring whatever program is running at the time to a devastatingly slow pace, (almost freezing), until you un-plug it and it seems to clear itself up. I can't Format, Reload, Scan the Disk, nothing.. All at the same time my iPod Shuffel seems to be running in perfect order with every thing else... Been around the block a few times.. anyone got any ideas?
Toshiba Windows XP 60Gig Color, iPod Shuffel

hiya!
hmmmm. since you've got a Toshiba, we might need to check up on this possibility:
iPod not recognized correctly on Toshiba laptop
... but i'm not sure why that's not an issue for you Shuffle too ... i guess since the color 60 GB has more features (photosync and whatnot) it might be a bit more sensitive to a slightly flaky USB 2.0 connection than a shuffle.
if this doesn't seem to be a factor, it might be worth seeing if you can get a better sync with a different known-good USB cable, if you have one available.

My ipod wont work when i touch certain spots

when i try to text i cant use numbers because that prt of the screen wont work or to enter my screen works other wise just certain apps and typing how can i fix it??

Make sure the screen si clean and remove any screen protector is y have one.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

New iPod wont work when I plug it into previous craddle

Ive had a 4th gen iPod for a couple of years and this Christmas I recieved a new 5th generation iPod as a gift. I put the new iPod on the old craddle (it didnt fit as snugly but apparently it did charge it) but nothing shows up on the screen, its not synching up w iTunes or anything, the screen is blank. Do I have to do something to it or to my Mac for it to substitute my old iPod for the new one and have the comp recognize it?
Please help - Thanks in advance

If your old craddle hooked up via Firewire? If so, that is the problem. All newer iPod use USB2 only for data trasnfer and no longer use Firewire to update. However you can still charge from a Firewire port as you have discovered.

I have a few films on there and they show up on my purchases.If i restore, will i be able to get my films back ? as at the moment my ipod wont work now untill i restore anyway.

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your device manually before syncing, you can restore from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Here's how to:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your ipod to your computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.

The following assumes you've been backing up to icloud all along.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. This will erase your device. Then you will go through the setup screens again as you did when your device was new, and when given the option, select Restore from iCloud Backup.
Let us know if this method does not work.

IF it is a manufacturing defect and you bought the device from Apple or an authorized Apple retailer, then take it into Apple.

Connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad

The control click and external mouse right click no longer works when copying and pasting album art within itunes. Ex. Hit get info for one song to paste to the rest, copying the artwork wont work when it used to.

My iPod only works when plugged into a wall socket!

Anyone know why my iPOD only works when plugged into a wall outlet? I tried it on the Bose docking station and also my MacBook and it won't work!
Any ideas??

Sounds like a dead battery. You can have Apple swap out the battery for a flat fee or you can send it to a third party service center to have them do the same for job a little less.

My ipod only works when its being charged!

my ipod only works when its charged. when i unplug it the screen slowly fades out and i can no longer turn it on. and when i connect it to the computer it doesnt even connect! can someone please help me???!!!!
ipod video Windows XP

"my ipod only works when its charged."
Then it sounds like a battery problem.
Try these.
My iPod won't turn on.
iPod has no power and appears frozen.
iPod battery doesn't charge.
If none of the above help, then it may be an issue that requires service.
You can arrange online service here.
Service request.
Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

Ipod nano works when attached to other devices only

My brand new iPod Nano works when plugged into my car and home stereo, but not on its own. Anybody know how to fix this?

Sounds like a faulty battery. Since you just purchased the iPod, return it for a replacement or refund.

OK, that tutorial is different than what I assume you want. I suspect you want the ability to have users upload images and store the metadata of those images in a database, correct? That tutorial only shows how to upload to a specific location so the image can
be displayed in an iframe.
Search for "php file upload scripts" to see how to upload to a file system and store the metadata in the database.
>and no, mostly i have used the dreamweaver features to avoid it as much as possible
As you are seeing, DW code is very limited in what it can do. It also generates code that is not up to current standards,and is very difficult to work with if you need to modify it. Basically, it's junk. Forget it and learn how to read and write code. There are tons on tutorials on how to get started with PHP. DW Server behaviors only seem like a time saver in the beginning. In the end, you'll end up wasting more time using them than learning how to code yourself.

Please help me my ipod wont work! D:

I need serious help D:! ok so i have succesfully synced music onto my ipod b4 but i wanted more songs so i was syncing music onto my ipod touch once again and once the sync was almost finished it said something about an error and then when i unplugged my ipod all of my songs that i had 1st put on my ipod were gone D:! after that my ipod stopped showing up on itunes on one of my computers so i switched to the other and it started doing the same thing. i came on here and was told it might be because itunes wasnt up to date so i updated itunes and my ipod but after the update, during the time when it was backing up software i think, another error popped up and said something about how the session had timed out, my internet connection is fine to so it wasnt that. after that another error popped up saying i needed to restore my ipod back to its factory settings and i said ok but another error always pops up saying the sesion timed out of something! now my ipod is like it was when i first got it! the screen shows the end of a usb cord pointed at the itunes sign! ive tried turning it off but it wont work! and when i try to hook it up to itunes on either off my computers it doesnt show up in itunes and a message from windows pops up and says "Found new hardware: Windows needs to install driver software for your apple mobile device (Recovery mode)" please help me i cant even do anything at all with my ipod right now! D:

The Internet provider might have too many people using the Internet than what the particular servers are setup for. Or your computer just needs to reset. Try restarting your computer. Also do a hard reset on the iPod. Hold the power button and wake button down until you see the apple logo come on. Let go. Then let the ipod finish bopting up . Then restore your iPod as a new iPod, NOT from the backup.

Elan Sayso/Tempo Multimedia TTS? - Ipod wont work with itunes

What does this mean?
I can put my itunes on fine and I can plug in my ipod nano 16gb...but seperately only. If I have itunes on and plug in my ipod then 'Elan Sayso/Tempo Multimedia TTS Server has stopped working' and I have to shut down itunes as it has froze.
Ive tried what apple have suggested so itunes has been uninstalled etc and my 3rd generation ipod nano works fine but it just wont work for my 5th generation.
Please help - also I am not that clever with computers so you may have to dumb it down! Many thanks

Where would I find any updates?
No idea since I don't have whatever software you are using but I'd probably start here -> http://www.acapela-group.com/

My ipod only works when plugged in.

I always keep my ipod plugged into my doc and it plays fine on there and when it comes off the battery life is great. But when its off the doc the click wheel wont work and it goes idle. I tried plugging it into the wall and the pad works fine. It will oddly enough work when it has a cord plugged into the ipod but also unplugged from the all, like it has to have something in the bottom weather it's charging or no. Why wont the buttons work when something isnt plugged into the bottom of it? It's a 4th generation nano, 8g if that helps.

You can work through the remaining five 5 R's of troubleshooting.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's clickwheel, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity. A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less. Google "iPod clickwheel repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.
