Anyone have a syggestion on how to get my Ipod touch working again besides putting it into restore mode

Anyone have any ideas on how to get an Ipod touch to charge or sync without putting it into restore mode, I've prettymuch tried everything thats been put online so far

Tried DFU mode?
To do this follow these instructions:
    1. First, Open up iTunes, plug in your iPod Touch/iPhone to the Computer's USB port. Turn on your Computer's speaker and make sure it is loud enough that you can hear it.
    2. Hold down the Home button (top left for iPod Touch and top right for the iPhone with the screen facing you) and the Power button (located on the front bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone) simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off. (past the red slider/slide to power off screen)
    3. Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch/iPhone should have turned off and the screen should not be on.
    4. After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your Computer as if it had just recognized a new hardware device, now iTunes should recognize it in DFU mode.
    5. After iTunes recognizes the iPod Touch/iPhone, let go of the Home button otherwise it will go into recovery mode and you will have to do the entire DFU process over again.
    6. You will know when you have put your iPod Touch/iPhone correctly into DFU mode when the display is blank and that you do not have anything on your device.
Once you have done this click restore and iTunes sould start to dowbnload and install the latest firmware.
#Please note this will reset your iDevice to factory settings

Anyone have any suggestions on how to find an iPod touch when it's location is off?

Anyone have any suggestions on how to find an iPod ouch when it's location is turned off?

Unfortunatley, with location turned off it is impossible to locate it. Also if your IPod is dead or is not connected to wifi it will not give its location.
My best reccomondation is refering to this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2526
Good Luck!
Sorry I can't give you anything better!

Can you check system update? I think I did a system Update 1st, a day before installing OSX Lion and there is a Safari update. If not try logging in iCloud.

HT201413 I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again?

I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode, however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again? I have updated and restored 5 times! When connected to itunes it only shows the summary page saying ipod in recovery mode.

Fixed it!
1. Made sure itunes software was up to date
2. Pressed and held 'home' button and 'on-off' button at the same time for about 10 seconds till ipod reset (I hadn't done this step previously)
3. Connected to itunes
4. Pressed restore and update ipod
Update successful and ipod taken out of recovery mode

How to get an ipod touch out of recovery mode.

I want to get my iPod Touch out of recover mode and i don't know how I got into it.
All that happened was that my iPod Touch ran out of battery, so I plugged it into my MacBook and when it turned on I just got the Connect to iTunes screen.
I tried turning it off and then on again but to no effect.
I also tried holding down the Home and Power button until the apple logo shows up then release but that still did not work.
What should I do to get it out of recovery mode without restoring??

If re-starting the AMDS driver doesn't work, you can try removing iTunes and AMDS, then re-installing iTunes (which will re-install AMDS).
If that doesn't work, try putting the Touch into DFU mode. You kind of mentioned it above where you held the buttons down while connected to iTunes, but it didn't sound exactly correct and it can be a little tricky to get the timing down.
While having the Touch connected to the computer (and iTunes running) hold the Sleep and Home buttons until the Touch screen goes black (about 10 seconds). When that happens release only the Sleep button -- keep holding the Home button until iTunes says it found a device in recovery mode. At that point you release the Home button and will have to Restore the device, and you can try re-loading your last backup after the Restore process completes.

How can get my flash to work again?

How can I get my flash to work again?

Flash is not a feature of the Adobe Reader for iOS.
To answer directly, though, per orders of Apple, Adobe has never released a version of Flash for iOS. You can't get something “to work again” if there never was such a product on this platform.

I have a rock stuck in my headphone jack, on my iPhone, does anyone have some tips on how to get it out?

I have a rock stuck in my iPhone headphone jack, does anyone know how to get it back, please, help me.

Maybe a fine nail or needle since the opening is so small. I, too, do not see how anything could get in the port.

I am unable to use my touchscreen. It won't slide to open up. I charged it yesterday, went through all the steps and restored it today, and still nothing. Anyone have a solution on how to get into it?

I am unable to open up my ipod touch. The screen is frozen and won't slide open. I charged it yesterday, and today ended up restoring it and nothing has happened yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I suggest you go to the Apple Store and explain to them the situation. I think they will be more then happy to help you. Also they might even exchange your ipod for a new one so try to back up your files if you can and be ready.

Anyone figure out how to get Powershot G2 to work again after update to 1.5

All my raw files from my Powershot G2 are now "Unsupported" since the update. Has anyone figured out how to update the program to allow support for that camera again? Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks

You can get the old hack for the Canon Powershot G2 RAW support to work again on 10.4.8 and Aperture 1.5, and you do NOT need to revert back to the old 10.4.7 IO Frameworks file. The solution is to download the new 2006-01 RAW Camera Support update from Apple's web site. Here is the link version for PPC machines (which is what I have):
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawsupportupdateppc.html
There his also a Universal version on Apples site (but I have not tried this version):
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/digitalcamerarawsupportupdateuniversal.ht ml
After you install this update, it will place a new copy of the RAW.plist file in the usual place:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ImageIO.fram ework/Versions/Current/Resources/Raw.plist
Edit this file with the old hack, making sure to add the "" to the 1st line and save it back. A few notes on this:
1) I'm not sure whether the "" is needed, but similar items appear in all other cameras now, so no harm in adding it.
2) To place the editted version back in the library, I had to 1st move the old RAW.plist file to the trash, then copied the editted version to the library. I then restarted to allow me to delete the version in the trash (otherwise the system thinks it is still in use).
3) To be safe, I also did a repair permisssions (which did repair the permissions of the new RAW.plist file).
After this, I was able to open Powershot G2 RAW files in Aperture and PReview (have not tried iPhoto, but is shoudl also work there).
Here is the hacked code for the Canon G2 camera.

HOWTO/FIX: How to get your iPod touch recognised in iTunes

Hi,
I'm going to explain how to fix this problem but let me give you a little background first.
I was starting from scratch so what could go wrong:
1. Fresh Windows XP SP2 install, fully updated on brand new MacBook pro.
2. Firewall (Komodo) and Anti-virus (avast) installed
3. Firefox
4. Latest iTunes
And the iPod touch wouldn't show up. I went through every guide and every step on the apple website including the 5Rs, registry fixes, xp app cleanup, USB port settings, re-installs, resets etc but nothing worked.
So what was the solution?
Install iTunes 7.5.5 instead of 7.6! Simple as that.
Hopes this helps some people seeing as I've wasted about 5 hours of my life on this.
Cheers,
Karle

Find someone with a PC or go to an Apple store.
However, if the screen only says disabled:
If you don't have access to a computer
If you are using Find My iPhone, you can use Remote Wipe to restore your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode.

How can I get my iPod to work again?

i forgot the code to my iPod because I havent used it for along time I tried it too much and it says connect to iTunes but I can't because the dock connector in the iPod is broken.I really need to use it for something help :)

If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Otherwise you need a working dock connector and computer wither iTuned and internet connection
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
