APPLE : IPOD UPDATE 1.2 HAS KILLID MY 5G 60GB

Guys,
the very least you could do is say yo know you messed up and do the following .
1. Release a 'rollback' fix that will put the ipod firmware back to pre 1.2 state
2. Get the firmware right for once, this is the third time n 10 months I've updated and my ipods died.
If this isn't sorted I'm going to dump Apple for good and get the Microsoft alternative

Hi
If you go to the following Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/ipodupdater20060628.html
You can download the 1.1.2 Firmware Updater to restore your iPod back to this firmware version. I have successfully done this after installing 1.2. When you first connect back to iTunes you'll be asked if you want to update to 1.2 say no and select not to be asked again.
If you have purchased new TV Shows (I think since release of iTunes 7) you will not be able to upload them and play them on the iPod.
Hopefully Apple will release a new Firmware Update to fix our problems.
Cheers

I am trying to update my iTunes on my PC and I keep getting this message after I click the button to install the update ... "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature and will not install
Okay. Rather than using Apple Software Update, let's try updating your iTunes using an installer downloaded from the following location:
Latest iTunes Installer
Does the install using the iTunesSetup.exe from there go through any better? If not, what error message do you get from that?

"Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature.

Hi. Iam trying to update from iTunes 7.3.2.6 to iTunes 7.6.2 but always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed. Can anybody help me wth this?

always get this message: "Apple Software Update for Windows" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
There is a problem on some XP machines where Apple Software Update for Windows version 2.0.0.21 will always return an invalid signature message when trying to update to ASU 2.1.0.110. Since it tries to do that prior to updating other software, the update of the other software is blocked. (To check what version of ASU you have, launch ASU by going "Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update", and then in ASU go "Help > About Apple Software Update".)
The way around that issue (if that's what you've got) is to update itunes using the link to the iTunes installer that Jefe gave you in his/her post. That iTunes installer will also update your ASU to at least ASU version 2.0.2.92 which should then be able to successfully update itself to ASU 2.1.0.110 next time you run ASU.

Apple iPod Update! HELP!!

Alright, this isn't really in this category, but when i was installing the ipod update it was fine then suddenly it started into the reset loop. It turns on and you see the apple symbol and then the light turns on then all of a sudden it cuts off and does the samething over again. This really ticks me off because apple is the one that caused this problem and it would have been fine if they would have just stopped pestering me to install this stupid thing. Sombody please tell me what I can do or who I can call.

Apple iPod Update Server Error

Whenever I try to run an update for my iPod through iTunes, it comes up with an error that says that "The iPod server network could not be contacted." I have parental controls set up on my computer applied to me, and I'm wondering if that is the case.

Hey there,
It very could be. If possible try this:
1. Head to Start Menu
2. Click Control Panel
3. Look for and click on Network & Internet
4. Click “Internet Settings” from the next menu.
5. When the window pops up, head over to the “Connections” tab.
6. Click on “LAN Settings” located at the bottom.
7. Put a check mark next to “Automatically detect settings”
8. Hit Apply.
Once you have done this, try and complete the update again in iTunes. Hope this helps.

HT1600 Apple TV Update

Hello,
I am installing the latest Apple TV update and it has been over an hour. It is sitting on "Step 1 of 2 : Preparing Update. Do not unplu..."
The progress bar is approximately 3/4 of the way complete. Do you know if thsi si normal?

The device is in recovery mode due to a failed update. The only resolution is to restore via ITunes on the computer.
A microUSB cable is fairly inexpensive, or you could take the device to the Apple store and see if they can assist with restoring or replacing the device.

IPod Updater 2005-09-23 Update error

I have recently used the Apple iPod updater to update my click-wheel 40gig iPod, that is - I tried!
After pressing the update buttom everything went ok until I got a casual 'update error' message. Now I get the neat folder with an exclamation mark on my screen when I start the iPod and it is recognized by neither Windows nor Mac notebooks (or recognized as unformatted)!
I only have the option of 'restoring' i.e. formatting the drive. My Problem with this is that I have quite a few photos I took during a recent holiday in the Middle East on there (apart from the music I collected during the last year :-&.), because until Tuesday I only had notebook with a meagerly 10GB HDD.
Is there any way I can recover my files / revert to the previous software version?
The 'Geniuses' in the Apple Store London were pretty clueless behind their 'Genius-Bar' and looked like they could really use a drink (sadly not on offer at this bar...)
I upgraded from software version 3.0.2 if I remember correctly.
I really appreciate any help I can get!
Best,
Mark

It's a click wheel 40 GB iPod (b&w) and I updated from software version 3.0.2 - I think if it wasn't supported, the updater should not have started updating it!
What I am essentially looking for is a way to recover the data on my iPod...
Thanks,
Mark

IPod only recognized as digital camera / Apple Software Update unable to be uninstalled

This may sound like a common problem, but I've done a LOT of work trying to fix it based on online searches. With no avail, I think this problem can't be easily fixed.
As the question states, the initial problem is that my iPod Touch (1st gen I think, maybe 2nd gen, iOS 3.1.3) wasn't recognized by iTunes as an iPod, but only as a digital camera (Windows 7, 64-bit). At first I was content because I didn't have extra songs I wanted to add. But then when I cleared the RAM one day, the iPod restarted with the USB/Connect to iTunes screen. Finally, I had no choice but to try to fix the iTunes problem. So, as most people suggest first, I tried to update iTunes.
Unfortunately iTunes was unable to update. There was a rolling back error, that I traced to Apple Mobile Device Software by using the Command Prompt and logging the install log. Apparently, iTunes didn't have sufficient permission by Windows to delete the necessary files. I even uninstalled iTunes to try to reinstall it, but it didn't reinstall, leaving me with no iTunes at all.
Then I extracted AMDS installer from the iTunes installation package and logged that installation process to find errors. According to an online source, the driver was blank, so I first tried using pnputil.exe in cmd to remove the Apple driver package. This failed, so I manually went into C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository to find the driver to delete it so it could reinstall. Unfortunately, it still wouldn't install.
In addition, I changed the ownership of ProgramData, Program Files, and Program Files (x86) in the C:\ disk to Administrator instead of SYSTEM and gave full permission to myself (the administrator) and "TrustedInstaller." A risky move, I know, but I was desperate. I had hoped that this would give permission to iTunes to modify what it needed to modify, but this still didn't work.
Thus, I tried to remove all traces of Apple software that related to iTunes manually. This involved the Apple files in ProgramData, Program Files\Common Files, and Program Files (x86)\Common Files. Then I tried to uninstall the list of programs related to iTunes (Bonjour, QuickTime, etc). However, Apple Software Update refused to uninstall and gave an error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program reuired for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." I fear in my deletion of files, I might have deleted something necessary for this uninstall.
I downloaded multiple forced uninstallers, but none of them worked - the same message showed up constantly. I went into the registry key to see if I could manually uninstall Apple Software Update, but this didn't seem to work either. I was too afraid to delete anymore files...
So here I am again, having walked in a complete circle in this extremely complicated situation. The files I deleted in my first attempt at a solution ended up hindering a possible actual solution. Any ideas to uninstall Apple Software Update, or to solve iTunes rolling back error, or to remove the connect to iTunes screen from my iPod would be greatly greatly greatly appreciated. I can live without iTunes, but my iPod is very important to me. If anyone has a solution to remove the screen without connected to iTunes, or connecting to a different computer's iTunes, I would be willing to take that course of action too.
Thanks!

Has anyone else had problems since the latest itunes/ipod update?

since i got my ipod and itunes updated, ive had nothing but problems with my ipod. sometimes it freezes, and when i connect it to the computer its all of a sudden corrupted. Sometimes this happens when i connect it to my computer to charge, and gets stuck on the do not disconnect screen. Sometimes ill be listening to music or watching something on my ipod and itll turn off randomly for no reason, then the apple symbol will come on as if i turned the ipod on again. Right now my ipod is frozen on the do not disconnect screen, and i have no choice but to restore it, however it wont even show up on itunes when its frozen sometimes, like right now. Has anyone else had problems since the latest ipod update?

As i've posted in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=746408&tstart=30
I've tried everything others have suggested without any luck.
Now I'm stuck with a 300 bucks mp3 jalopy.
My big question here is :
why aren't we hearing from apple? why aren't they saying something like "yeah we messed things up but be patient. we are trying our best to fix it..." ?
I was thinking to buy the macbook pro but now I'm afraid of the day things will get messy with that too.
