Big problem with my 4th Gen, please help !!!

Hi guys.
Well I've a big problem with a 4th gen Ipod. The prob is that the Select button on the middle doesn't work.
I've tried everything : Did a reset, a complet restore from Itunes 7, but it was unsuccesful.
I don't really understand the problem, I was using the Ipod normally then suddenly the button didn't work !!
Please help me. In addition, I cannot carry it to the Apple Centre because I live in Algeria.
Thanks.

No ideas ???
I've tried to open it as well, I've unplugged all the connectors, cleaned it with alcohol, but the button still not responding.
Do you think that the problem would come from the logic board ?? Because the button itself worked (I used a METRIX to test it), and I can make a reset with no problem (the reset needs the central button).
Please help me. Thanks.

  • Big Problem with brand new iPod please help ME!!

    Hi, I just today got a brand new iPod. I pluged it into my computer and put on about 700 songs immediatly. Then, I tried to put video on my iPod. It said it would not do this because it's not the right type of iPod. But it is a 5th Gen. iPod and it can play video. Anyway, I installed the latest iPod updater. Now, it says to install the new iTunes 6.01. So I tried but it says my disk is full. It is not full. Also, do I have to keep my previous "iPod for windows" files that are occupying space on my disk?

    Kenny,
    If you can back your songs up, and you have not rated a slew of them already, it might be a good idea to uninstall iTunes, then reinstall it and use the ipod updater to wipe the iPod. Just make sure you download and install 6.01 before you plug the iPod in. Maybe that will get you past the disk full problem. Just something to try.

  • A Few Questions/Problems With My New iPod *PLEASE HELP*

    Hello! I just received my first iPod (4th Gen, 4GB, Red Nano) two days ago (Christmas Eve) and have so far been fairly happy with it. However, I'm experiencing a few problems with it and am hoping that someone could help me.
    Firstly, a few of the album covers on my iPod are just black squares. I've read other complaints about this on the forums, but haven't seen any solutions. What can I do to fix this?
    Second, I can't figure out how to put my songs in order. On iTunes, it allows me to put songs in alphabetical order, but being that most of my songs are part of full albums, I want my songs to be in the order of when they play on the actual albums. When I try to drag my songs into their correct places, I'm not able to.
    Also, is there any way to delete the games that my iPod came with? I think they might be taking up too much room for my liking...
    OK, well if you can help or add some extra tips to getting started with my iPod, it would be much appreciated. Thank you!

  • Problem with adobe acrobat/reader - please help!

    Hello,
    My acrobat reader was fine and I was able to open the pdf files sent to me, then suddenly it just wouldn't open anything at all.  It went into open mode and just stayed there, and wouldn't let me close it.  Then I got a message saying "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader.  Please exit and try again".  I've done this lots of times and it still isn't working.
    I would be very grateful for any help or suggestions.  I have windows 7, and as I said its all been fine up until now.
    Thanks.
    mspryce.

    This is the Acrobat forum, not the Reader forum. You should check the reader forum. In the meantime, if you are not running AR9.3 or so, you should update. Prior versions before 9 are not designed for Win7 and that might be your issue -- you gave no indication of version.

  • Problem with Logic XS Key, PLEASE HELP

    I use my G4 Powerbook laptop for live. I am running most recent version of logic.
    What happens is that Logic will load up fine, but then for no apparent reason logic will come up with an error message saying that the logic key has been removed, but i have not touched it!! I then have to restart logic.
    PLease help i have to get this sorted ASAP cuz i have a gig tomorrow nite. Cheers guys

    Hmm, it does it on both USB ports? And you haven't noticed any problems with other USB gear on those ports?
    When the key is next not recognised by Logic, go into the system profiler and find your USB port that the XS key is on - the XS key will be labelled when it's functioning correctly. Is it still recognised by the computer, or has it gone completely?

  • Problem with simple drawing program - please help!

    Hi,
    I've only just started using Java and would appreciate some help with a drawing tool application I'm currently trying to write.
    The problem is that when the user clicks on a button at the bottom of the frame, they are then supposed to be able to produce a square or circle by simply clicking on the canvas.
    Unfortunately, this is not currently happening.
    Please help!
    The code for both classes is as follows:
    1. DrawToolFrame Class:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class DrawToolFrame extends Frame
    implements WindowListener
    DrawToolCanvas myCanvas;
    public DrawToolFrame()
    setTitle("Draw Tool Frame");
    addWindowListener(this);
    Button square, circle;
    Panel myPanel = new Panel();
    square = new Button("square"); square.setActionCommand("square");
    circle = new Button("circle"); circle.setActionCommand("circle");
    myPanel.add(square); myPanel.add(circle);
    add("South", myPanel);
    DrawToolCanvas myCanvas = new DrawToolCanvas();
    add("Center", myCanvas);
    square.addMouseListener(myCanvas);
    circle.addMouseListener(myCanvas);
    public void windowClosing(WindowEvent event) { System.exit(0); }
    public void windowOpened(WindowEvent event) {}
    public void windowIconified(WindowEvent event) {}
    public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent event) {}
    public void windowClosed(WindowEvent event) {}
    public void windowActivated(WindowEvent event) {}
    public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent event) {}
    2. DrawToolCanvas Class:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class DrawToolCanvas
    extends Canvas
    implements MouseListener, ActionListener {
    String drawType="square";
    Point lastClickPoint=null;
    public void drawComponent(Graphics g) {
    if (lastClickPoint==null) {
    g.drawString("Click canvas first",20,20);
    } else {
    if (drawType.equals("square")) {
    square(g);
    else if (drawType.equals("circle")) {
    circle(g);
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
    if (event.getActionCommand().equals("square"))
    drawType="square";
    else if (event.getActionCommand().equals("circle"))
    drawType="circle";
    repaint();
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
    lastClickPoint=e.getPoint();
    public void square(Graphics g) {
    g.setColor(Color.red);
    g.fillRect(lastClickPoint.x, lastClickPoint.y, 40, 40);
    g.setColor(Color.black);
    public void circle(Graphics g) {
    g.setColor(Color.blue);
    g.fillOval(lastClickPoint.x, lastClickPoint.y, 40, 40);
    g.setColor(Color.black);
    public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {}
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Some of the problems:
    1) nothing calls drawComponent(Graphics g)
    2) Paint(Graphics g) has not been overriden
    3) myCanvas is declared twice: once as an instance variable to DrawToolFrame, and once local its constructor. Harmless but distracting.

  • Problem with Desktop Skype freezing, please help

    2 days ago, Dec. 23rd, I started up Skype as usual, but after about a minute, it froze, soon becoming "not responding". I opened Task Manager to try to end it manually, but Task Manager quickly became "not responding" as well, as did Chrome when I opened it when I tried to search for a solution. This had never happened before, and since has only happened when I am trying to use Skype for Desktop. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, switching to an older version, and running an antivirus scan to see if a virus might be causing the problem, but none of this helped, and it still freezes itself along with all my other programs, forcing me to restart my computer if I want to be able to use it. I have been using Windows 8 Skype instead today, with no problems, but Skype for Desktop is more convenient for me, and I would very much appreciate it if someone would please help me.
    Also, I don't know if this might be related to the problem, but today I had Task Manager open before starting Skype for Desktop, hoping I could end it before it caused everything to freeze (I couldn't), I was able to see before it froze that Skype was using 100% of my Disk.
    Solved!

  • Weird problems with kt7 turbo (6330), PLEASE HELP!!

    I just this last week purchased an older kt7 turbo (6330) to upgrade my brother's computer. I am pairing this with an Athlon XP 1700 processor. After installing all the hardware and booting up the computer, I started getting various errors. Sometimes the screen would just flash all kinds of colors, sometimes it would say something about a bios check not detecting the a: drive followed by insistent beeping, sometimes it just wouldn't start at all. After much hassle, I finally got the newest bios installed from MSI that claimed to fix some stuff between this motherboard and an Athlon XP 1700. (I didn't at the time suspect this to be the true culprit) Finally on Sunday afternoon, after a cold start, it magically started up and I finally got Windows XP installed. I found some drivers on the reference CD that seemed to help some. But now, after about 5-10 minutes, depending on the software being used, the computer will just shut itself down after a 60 second warning message. When I try reseting it, I start getting all of those weird errors again. The only way to get the computer to start up normally again is to let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to cool down, and then cold start it. At which point it will work again for another 10-15 minutes and shut down again. I am getting SOOOOO tired of these MSI motherboards not working for me!! I think MSI has a personal problem with me. PLEASE help me!! By the way, I don't think it's power related, cause I just put in a brand new P4 certified 400Watt powersupply.

    Sounds like your heatsink on your CPU may not be seated correctly. Try pulling it, cleaning, reapplying compound, and reseating it.

  • Problem with touch screen. Please help!!!

    Ok I bought an iPad about a month ago now. At first it worked perfectly, runs apps smoothly, etc. But then something happened to the touch screen, it just randomly like pressed itself, it went into apps on its own and zoom in and out while on safari just randomly. For about 3 weeks this issue disappeared, but now it happens again but more constantly and for more time please help. I think this video will explain my issue more clearly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1qyvHV43yg Please I just don't want this issue anymore. Any help will be appreciated.

    OK...so it seems that many iPad owners have the same issue with the screen "self registering touches". You'll see multiple posts on the forums from "self touching" to "self registering" to "freaking out".
    Well, I also have this annoying problem.
    Trust me when I say that cleaning the screen, resets, charging, deleting apps, static, and so on haven't anything to do with causing or resolving this issue.
    Here is a little tip to show you what is actually going on. Download a free app that shows you "screen touches". Harbor Master is one that I've heard of that led me to this...but I prefer to use that pocket pond app...only because I can just sit back and watch without having to move boats around.
    ...When you notice the problem, open up the app. I've noticed on mine that it only self registers touches along the side. Exact location is (when holding iPad in landscape position, home button on left) along the top of the screen...from top middle to the top right corner.
    I have called Apple...the tech was polite and tried to help. ...But the only suggestions were to reset (as i've already done) then if that didn't work I was to do a reload while sync'd. He stated that if none of that worked then to take it to the store...
    Since I am in Florida for the month and the nearest Apple store is 6hrs away...I will wait until I go back home HI and visit a store that is close by.

  • Problem with my code!Please help:(

    Hi
    Here is the final code to read each byte at a time (using buffered input stream)from a remote sensed image and then store the values in 3 arrays . The image data (it is a remote-sensed image with 3 bands) are represented as a continuous byte stream band sequential. The format of the header is as follows:
    Bands (int)
    Rows (int)
    Cols (int)
    Bits-per-pixel (int)
    and then the image data follow.

  • Problem With Swf File. Please Help!!!!

    Hi! I recently got adobe flash cs4 and i tried to create swf wallpaper (flash lite 1.1), so everything looked good, untill i opened the file. The problem is its constantly blinking, like its refreshing with every second or frame or something. Then i transfered it to my phone and theres no change. I had the same problem with CS3...I attached the sample, if someone cares to see...Please can somebody help me??? Thank you!

    I think (at a first look) that you should put a stop() command at each frame of your movie.
    Playhead is running through your movie from one frame to another and back to beginning if you don't stop it with stop() command.
    What I mean is:
    in frame one of your movie put ActionScript: stop();
    in frame two of your movie put ActionScript: stop();
    etc.
    If navigation through your movie is linear, like some animations then don't put this AS in frames, but it seems to me that this will solve your problem.
    For more (if this isn't helping) upload your movie along with ActionScript.
