After Security update, FireWire iPods not working in iTunes 7.0.2

Hi all,
this past weekend, I installed the latest Apple security update and restarted my Mac.
Everything was working fine until I connected my iPod mini (via FireWire) and realized that although the iPod is mounting on the desktop, it is NOT appearing in iTunes. My other iPod, a 10GB 3G iPod, is also experiencing the same problem. The exception to this is my son's 512MB Shuffle -- it's working just fine.
I've tried all of the following, to no avail:
1. changed FW port
2. reset iPod
3. restored iPod
4. deleted and reinstalled iTunes
5. ran Disk Utility and DiskWarrior and "repaired" iPod hard drive
help!
iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   iPod mini, iPod, Shuffle, iTunes 7.0.2

I have both a frist gen. and a fifth gen iPod and both are working on my iMac, which runs iTunes 7.0.2 and it's OS is up to date with the the latest security update.

  • After ios update volume controls not working

    After updating to iOS 7.0.4, when I unlock my phone, the volume buttons no longer work, Ringer window just shows as grey.  Volume works fine to adjust ringer when receiving a call, also works fine within apps.  However, key tones (clicks) no longer function.  Also, can no longer power off the phone, it just restarts.
    Tried a hard reset (hold power and home, see apple, release).  no change
    Tried to erase all content and settings and setup as new phone, no change
    Also noticed that Friend Finder no longer plays notifications - IE when a contact leaves or arrives from or to a certain location.  Worked fine before the iOS update.  Even tried uninstalling, hard reset, re-installing Friend Finder, no change.
    Problem is intermittent.  It seems to fix itself throughout the day.
    Someone suggested replacing the charge port on the phone but I find it hard to believe that the charge port mechanically failed directly after the update to 7.0.4.
    Suggestions?

    Hi im a newbie here and i recently bought an iphone from a friend (wahh i know i should have bought it legitly but i wasnt paying that price sorry),
    I have a 32 GB Black Iphone 4s and theres a problem.
    Yesterday i decided i wanted music on my phone and decided to sync my phone to my itunes and computer..
    But lets backtrack first... Earlier in the day i decided to plug a (non iphone heaphone into the headphone port) and much to my ssureprise it worked (all ive ever dealt with is blackberry) unplugged the headphones and a few hours later this is where i synced my phone tried to play music an GASP nothing..in the music app the volume nubs are gray and cannot be moved left or right and no sound is being heard.. also when i tried to check to see if my ringer was going up and down it was displaying the little speaker but not the bar that moves. Read the discussions here and it seemed that we've all been screwed now i love my iphone and all its features only phone ive ever wanted but i would love this to be fixed.
    I have tried:
    Restting all setting
    Hard Reset
    Restore
    Restore from back
    Changing everything imaginable in Setting and nothing has worked
    Making a voicenote and i actually got sound and my ringer started to work! YAY right.. WRONG
    Cleaning it with nail polish removeer
    Brushing it with a brush
    Using a paperclip and scraping it
    *i did find some fluff but it came out*
    After a few futile attempts at trying to play videos and games with sound and getting nothing i have decided its time to put my tail inbetween my legs and hope that someone can help.
    Im not sure if was the type of headphones that i used or hat but i need help
    PLEASE REPLY I NEED MUSIC
    I AM ALSO A YOUTUBER AND FILM OFF MY IPHONE AND I NEED TO HEAR WHAT **** I AM TALKING AT THE END OF A VIDEO
    THANK YOU

  • Ipod updater-now ipod not working

    I just updated my ipod mini, but now it does nothing but show the apple sign and then turn itself off after about 30 seconds.I have tried charging it, and connecting it to my computer, but it doesnt seem to fix anything.
    Thanks in advance-Dch-p

    Dylan,
    Try to fix it with a Mac computer. First you must plug your iPod with a AC charger, put it in Disk Mode, plug your PC's formatted iPod with a Mac computer, your iPod will show up in the Desktop, open the Disk Utility and do a ERASE (fomat) in MS Dos format. Once completed, plug it with your PC and you will see the window pop up and ask you to do the Restore for your PC to read it. Then open the iPod updater and click Restore.

  • HT4718 I have a new MACBOOK PRO and after running updates IPhoto does not work

    After installing Iphoto 9.4.1 from the MACSTORE updates Iphot will not run.  I downloaded (.4.1 again and tried to install but it says that the update must be done from the Mac store.  But I do not show any updates when checking the mac store and do not know how to proceed.  I just purchased the computer and set it up on Saturday.  I transferred files from an older Macbook pro.

  • IPods not working since iTunes 7.2 and song upgrade

    Anyone else experiencing issues since upgrading to 7.2?
    My 4th gen iPod has started skipping songs -- never had any issues with this one before.
    My 5th gen iPod(video) has seemingly bricked. Select+Menu reset feature doesn't have any impact. The screen flickers and then freezes.
    Oddly enough, iTunes 7.2 works just fine from what I can tell. The new "Plus" songs play just fine on the computer.

    I'm having the exact same problem after the iTunes 7.2 upgrade. Some songs won't copy and I get the 'cannot be copied/file format not supported' message - though all of the formats are the same. I tired restoring my iPod twice but no dice. The songs copied fine before the upgrade.
    For me, it seems to be just songs that I purchased from iTunes, burned to an audio CD and then reimported as MP3s. (I've done this a few times for various reasons.) When I reload the original purchased files to my computer from backup, then try to copy those to the iPod it works. Maybe that's a clue.
    Hopefully an update will fix this. It's a minor annoyance, but still...

  • Ipod not working with itunes

    Hi everyone , i really need help with my new ipod nano.
    First of all, when i try to open itunes it takes like 5 mins before it opens , when it opens it says
    ''the program needed to communicate with the ipod is not installed correctly. reinstall itunes to install the Ipod program''
    I reinstalled itunes like 3 times , reinstalled the ipod program and it still says the same thing
    I would also like to know if you can put songs on your ipod without using itunes because i tried using windows media player and it said it was all sync but when I check my songs on the ipod its empty
    Alexg
    dell pentium 4   Windows XP  

    Check out these two documents which address the issue.
    "Please Reinstall iTunes" message appears
    Fast User Switching
    Disable fast user switching in contol panel/user accounts/change the way users log on and off.
    There are other methods of putting songs on the iPod using software such as Ephpod and other such programs.

  • [SOLVED] After qemu update: KVM does not work anymore

    Hi,
    I used to use qemu-kvm, as in
    qemu-kvm \

    -drive file=/home/flash-vm/hdd0,if=virtio,cache=writethrough \
    -vga std -vnc localhost:2 -usbdevice tablet \
    -m 1024
    However, now qemu-kvm has been removed. If I replace "qemu-kvm" with "qemu-system-x86_64" and try to run it with an extra argument  "-machine accel=kvm" or "-enable-kvm", what I get is
    Could not access KVM kernel module: Permission denied

    The kernel modules are there:

    Interestingly, mine worked without being in the new group. However, I think that's because I hadn't logged out since the update, so the session didn't know that I had been removed from the group. Though I could be missing something.

    Moderator's notes: The post was edited. A more appropriate subject was provided.

    Sounds like you have performed the full gamut of things to do with it, if something has gone amiss. Unfortunately, your only option now is to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect: http://nokia.com/support

  • After Lion update, Outlook 2011 not working...

    I update Lion last night, and this morning I can't open the New Message window in Outlook 2011 to send a new message.  I rebooted the computer after the install, and after that I tried closing down the program and rebooting.

    You should post this in the Lion forums.

  • IPod not working in iTunes 8.2.1.6 and TS1363

    A question about Knowledge Base entry TS1363:
    I have been tring to get my iPod Shuffle 2nd Gen to work with 8.2.1.6. I notice that Apple has added more suggestions for fixing the problem I have. I am use Windows XP Home with SP3.
    When I connect the iPod, Windows recognizes it as a USB Drive, but it does not show up in the "My Computer" screen of Windows Explorer.
    I went through the procedure detailed in TS1363 to restart the "iPod Services".
    After completing the procedure, the iPod shows in the Explorer screen. When I start iTunes, it recognizes the iPod. It shows the contents and indicates that it is syncing. I tried deleteing a song and then adding a song. It appeared to work with the exception that it did not show that the song was being copied. The song just appeared in the iPod menu after the Sync was done. I could not play the song though, via iTunes. I tried to add more songs, but got a Windows error that it could not find the Drive. (Note: I have not tried the drive name change yet called out in TS1363)
    This prompted me to try the iPod Service restart several times, and I got the same results with the exception that iTunes would or could not load any songs. iTunes recognized the iPod, but other than showing the contents would not interact (play songs, etc.).
    *Now for the question: Is it normal for the iPod to drop out of the Explorer Window for My Computer when iTunes Syncs the iPod?*
    Note: don't tell me to use the iPod Reset Utility, I,ve done that several times, and it does not help. I got that to work once with an auto fill, and it has not done anything since. The iTune Restore does not do anything either.
    Also, with the exception of changing the iPod drive name, I have done everthing else called out in TS1363.

    Hi Nanonfsmw,
    If you want to check what you have installed on your computer, you can look in Measurement
    and Automation Explorer (MAX) under the Software expandable menu. If
    you do not see Traditional DAQ in this menu, then it is not installed. If you
    see it in the menu, but you do not see the VIs in LabVIEW, make sure to Repair/Modify
    your installation and be sure to add Support for LabVIEW 8.2.1.
    Since this is an example program, there is no support documentation. If there
    are any inputs that you would like to control manually, you are correct in
    thinking that you should simply create some front panel controls and route them
    to the appropriate inputs.
    Best regards,

  • IPods not working with iTunes 12.1 or OS 10.8.5

    I recently tried to sync my old Gen 3 nano to my newest laptop. It wasn't recognized in iTunes 12.1. Thinking it was just old, I bought a shuffle, only to have iTunes 12.1 tell me there was an issue and to uninstall and re-install iTunes. When looking at the tech specs for my new shuffle, I notices that the OS requirement was OS X v10.6.8 or later, and iTunes 10.7 or later. Since my computer is more up to date, does that mean that these devices aren't supported?

    jeffd55 didn't say it explicitly, but every iPod ever made *should* sync with the newest Macs (you'll have to get a couple of adapters to make the first two models work). If it's not coming up, you just have a software issue to debug.
    The only within-Apple incompatibilities involve newer iDevices and older Macs (nothing with iOS7 or 8, or a Lightning connector will sync with any PowerPC Mac).

  • Ipod not working on ITunes :S

    My Ipod Touch is fairly new.. but it has been connected to Itunes many times. Today, i connected my Ipod and it came up with the message:
    "Iphone detected, but has not been identified. Please disconect, reconnect and try again"
    1) Its a Ipod Touch not an Iphone.
    2) I tried disconnecting and reconnecting many times, and still no success.
    Any ideas what it could be?
    Help Appreciated.
    Hannah

    Have you tried resetting your iPod Touch? (Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button with the Home button for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears.)
    Are you connected via a USB hub or directly to a USB port on your computer?
    Make sure you've got the latest version of iTunes on your computer too.

  • After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.

    After Security updation of Windows 7 in Boot Camp (Mac Book Pro with Retina Display) on 13-Nov-2013, Windows 7 Desktop Gadgets are not working properly.
    This is boot camp problem, because in other normal notebooks (e.g. SONY VAIO, Lenovo with Windows 7) the gadgets are working normally.
    I am attaching the screen shot of Desktop Gadgets and Security updates of Windows 7.
    Kindly solve this issue ASAP.

    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

  • Applications not responding apparently after Security Update 2007-009

    Mail, iTunes, Skype, MSN Messenger, MainMenu, Emule, Safari and god know what else aren't responding after Security Update 2007-009.
    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new phone that does not work with macs, so I bought an application from Feisar to make it work. The application isn't freeware, so I think it is very unlikely that it bogused my system. Anyway, I installed the software, but only afterwards noticed it didn't work for my phone model with the USb interface, only through bluetooth, which I don't have. Moreover, and, in my opinion, more importantly, I also downloaded and installed security update 2007-009. After the update, I mandatorily restarted OS X and instantly noticed Mail, iTunes, Safari, Skype and Messenger not working. I click on them on the dock, they bounce (usually once, but it has occured to be more) and nothing happens. I don't get the little arrow below the icon. I see the applications in the applications folder, so they are not missing. I searched and searched on the internet and, apparently it is, to say the least, herculeanly complicated to downgrade from a software update. I tried to repair permissions and it didn't work. I tried the apple hardware test and everything came out perfect. I restarted many times and the same keeps happening.
    So I wasted half my day yesterday trying to fix this, looking into forums and trying to talk to people about it and there it absolutely no answer. Yesterday I installed the programs necessary to sync my phone in my wife's macbook and nothing bad happened. So I'm guessing it isn't about the phone plugins I installed. I've tried to download combo updates but they crash as soon as I try to install them - I even tried to install a 10.4.10 update.
    This is the error message I get:
    Command: Installer
    Path: /Applications/Utilities/Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Installer

    I put part of in on google to check if there was anybody discussing anything related and someone suggested - bizarrely enough - updating adobe reader. I did it just in case and, of course, it didn't work. I repaired permissions a million times already, I rebooted in safe mode, I scaned the computer with apple jack (which reapetedly said that I had a "fan failure!"), I verified the disk with diskutility - which showed nothing. I tried downloading an anti-virus (ClamXav), but I couldn't open it also, I trashed my prefs, I deleted all internet plugins, but still.... nothing.
    The most likely line to follow here is the "fan failure" message in apple jack. I looked inside my g5 and all fans except for the one close to the Hard Drives aren't spining. I'm not sure this means they aren't functional or whether the temperature isn't high enough for it to be turned on. Temperature must be around 26-28 degrees Celsius today. There is nothing on the internet about that fan failure that's close enough to my case.
    I'm about to quit and take it to the very expensive - yet reliable - authorized tech support apple has in Rio. Any ideas, anyone?

    Maybe it is a security update thing! I have had similar troubles with my CS2 and other simple apps like TextEdit not opening, just doing that single bounce... I have tried EVERYTHING and now, after reinstalling my entire system, have lost access to my own user profile.
    I'm assuming you have tried starting up with your original system install disk in the computer, while you turn it on, hold the option key, it will allow you to run another hardware check, as well as to do an archive install if it comes down to that.
    good luck, please let me know if you find out something else that might be causing the problems... i've noticed that alot of mac threads have similar probs listed.
