A solution for corrupted iPod...yet?

I'm really getting sick of having a corrupted iPod. Anyone have a better fix besides running chkdsk once a week and restoring once a month?

are we talking about this error?

Solution for some iPod/iTunes problems...

If you are having one or more of the following problems, Windows may be confusing iPod with a network drive or hard drive and may exhibit strange behavior, like:
-iPod does not show up in iTunes or as disk in Windows Explorer
-iPod does not show up as disk in Windows Explorer (even though disk mode in enabled ont he iPod).
-iTunes and Windows Explorer report the wrong amount of available space on the iPod.
-No songs appear on the iPod after an apprently successful update from iTunes.
-Music copied to mapped network drive instead of iPod.
-The iPod setup assistant appears in iTunes everytime the iPod is connected.
-iTunes displays the "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode- use iTunes to restore" message even after the iPod has been restored.
-The wrong iPod name displays in the iTunes source list.
Please note*changing the iPod drive letter may not affect what letter theiPod uses on subsequent connections, so its not the best long-term solution unless you want to change this everytime you have issues.
To change the drive letter:
-Open Control Panel in Windows
-Go to Administrative Tools
-Go to Computer Management
-Go to Disk Management
-Locate theiPod and right click on it, then click Change drive letter and paths.
-Use the drop-down box to select a new drive letter. Make sure to use a drive letter that is not already assigned to a network drive. The drop-down menu will display all letters that are not assigned to a physical drive, but network drives will stil be listed so be careful. If you arent sure, add a new drive and pick your own letter, something way down the list is best since common drives are A, B, C, D, etc.
-click OK
-Click yes on the confirmation box
-Restart computer
Good luck!!! It worked for me!!!

Honestly, I don't know!! I searched ITunes and IE7 and saw that others were having the same problem I was and that if they stopped using IE7 Itunes started working again.
Basically, I was just proud of dumping Internet Explorer! See, I really love Macs. I had an ibook that finally conked out and i couldn't afford another mac.

Solution for my Ipod?!

With humble request, can anyone please help me in finding my Ipod driver. The model no. is A1137. The main problem with my Ipod is that I cannot copy/download any song from my pc(Windows Vista). I have iTtunes but it could not find my Ipod connection. Apart from this, the Ipod is working well. I would be grateful If any one could give me the solution. Cheers!

Ok.
1) Yeah, it probly would be. But there are better solutions.
2) It can convert pretty much everything except Muxed files
3) Um, Muxed files.
So, the better solutions. What operating system are you on?
Mac: iSquint http://www.isquint.org/ for video conversions.
And Handbrake lite http://www.isquint.org/handbrakelite/ for DVD ripping.
But PC? I dont really know... Someone else might...

Best charging solution for multiple iPod Touches?

We have 1 iMac desktop computer and 4 G2 iPod touches. I want to know the best way to charge them. The kids want chargers for their rooms, so a recommendation for wall chargers would be good. I thought a hub with 4 usb ports might work, but would it have enough power to do the job?
Any solutions appreciated. Thank You!

SOLUTION for "corrupt file/directory" unable to install FLASH

How many of you have run into trouble trying to install or update Flash Player and got the message about a corrupt file/folder at "C:/windows/system32/macromedia/flash"? If you are like me, when you got it you first tried to install again. Didn't work. Then you went thru the troubleshooting steps listed online (i.e. uninstall, manually install, run Flash uninstall tool, etc.). Nothing worked, right? Yeah me too!
Then you got really mad and tried to delete that nasty "Flash" folder/directory. And like me you found out that the system won't let you. Like me, you probably wasted some time trying to bootstrap the file permissions to allow you to delete it, and, unless your one of Microsoft's senior techs and know the mythical secret "God Level" access permission code, you too failed!
Then brilliance struck (which happens about as often as that second lightning visit!)! Here is the solution and it's rediculously simple: rename the file!!
Doesn't matter to what, just change it and ignore it; so will the Flash Player installer! Go download and install the player and it will recreate that directory all nice and shiny and new and, most importantly, UN-CORRUPTED!
I thank you!

Adobe stopped supporting Google, so try with older version of flash and install it manually

Is using a firewire a solution for mounting ipod

I have had my ipod for like 5 months, and it just decided to stop mounting on itunes and "my computer" wont recognize it either. one of hte many help sites i went to for this problem told me to use a firewire. before i buy one, would this help?

Which iPod do you have?

Solution for 4g ipods which arent recognized by itunes

I've now uninstalled the USB device driver but now my iPod listed as a "portable device" and no longer listed under Apple MobileDevice

Is there a good backup / imaging solution for Windows 10, yet?

I'm waiting for Veeam Endpoint 1.1 to hit, supposedly within the next week or two.

We upgraded one laptop at home and I wasn't very surprised to find out that the backup / imaging program we were using on Windows 7 (Backup Exec System Recovery) stopped working. It's a nice program that I've been using for years - creates a base image then incrementals on a schedule. Allows for simple full bare metal recovery or for file recovery by mounting an image inside the program.
Have any of you tested anything similar in Windows 10?

Microphone for 5g iPod?

Is there a microphone for 5g iPod yet? If not are there any alternate solutions for recording audio with iPod?

I also check for product announcements nearly every day. I bought the 5gen iPod specifically for hi-quality audio recording (after reading the technical specs), and was sorely diappointed to find that no mic interfaces exist yet.
What's up apple? It's the christmas shopping frenzy and you can't support your newest and best iPod with a microphone interface?
Incidentally, Gemini makes a mic-to-USB adapter that will work with the 5Gen iPod's hard disk capabilities but it costs $229, almost as much as the iPod itself. Pfft!

For the missing Artists on your iPod, make sure their tracks in iTunes are not marked as "Part of a compilation" in iTunes. You can do this by highlighting the track, right->clicking on them and choosing "Get Info" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Info tab and make sure there is NO tick mark next to this option in the lower right hand corner. Lastly, sync the updated changes to your iPod.

Download the music to your ipod when you are in a wi-fi area.
It will be stored on your ipod.

Solution for Windows users who repeatedly get "iPod in Recovery Mode".

If you are repeatedly receiving this message using iTunes 7 on Windows when connecting your Nano (it may be with other models, I can't test that), Windows may be assigning a drive letter that is already in use. This is particularly common for networked computers with mapped drives. For example, when I connected my Nano, I got the message above. No matter how many times I tried to restore it, I received the same message. Turns out, Windows was mapping the Nano to F:, which was already a mapped network drive in Windows. This is NOT a bug with the Nano or iTunes, it could happen to pretty much any removable drive. To fix this:
- Open Disk Manager (Right click on 'My Computer', select 'Manage', then select 'Disk Management' under 'Storage').
- Locate your iPod and right click on it. Select 'Change Drive Letter and Paths'.
- Remove the current drive letter assignment by clicking 'Remove'.
- Add a new drive letter assignment by selecting 'Add', and choosing an available drive letter that is not currently in use, and is not being used by another removable device.
On my computer, I have several removable drives, as well as several network mapped drives. My USB backup drive is B:, my thumb drive is T:, and now my iPod is I:. I don't know why I didn't think of this solution sooner.
If you need any help, reply here. I'll see what I can do.
