    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:

    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:

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    Hello,
    It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
    My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
    At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
    Reset the Firewire bus
    If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device.  A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
    1. Shut the machine down.
    2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
    3. leave it for 10 minutes.
    4. Connect back up and reboot.

  • Wont detect hard drive in bios

    the bios wont find a hard drive and will freeze when i try to search for hard drives.... what the heck?

    How are Master slave setup on the drives attached to the cable? Are they WD's? If so they should not have a jumper.

  • Ipod Wont Detect

    Hi all. Whenever I connect my Ipod to my PC, the SDafly Remove Hardware thing detects it, but thats it. It is fully charged, but I keep getting the Folde error. Ive rebooted both the Ipod and my PC, reinstalled itunes, and Ive made sure the Ipod is fully charged. The ipod wont do anything when I plug in the PC and my Computer and Itunes wont read it. When I dissconnect the Ipod, my PC's screen asks me if I wish to reformat the ipod to make it work. I plug the ipod back in and click ok and nothing happens. Please help me.
    EDIT: Also, Ive gotten my PC to read it 2 times, but in itunes when I click to restore it, it says there was a problem downloading the restoring stuff.

    This happened to me, first make sure your computer installs the necessary files for your ipod. It should do it automatically if you plug it in for the first time. Make sure iTunes is up to date (sometimes it works). Lastly just try restarting your computer, or give the ipod some time to show up in iTunes.
    Does the battery have a "thunder" sort of symbol in it when you plug it into the USB port? Maybe it thinks you have ejected it or something. In other words does it charge?

  • Creative software wont detect Hardware

    I've been spending days and nights on this.
    ?OS : Windows 7 Home 64bit
    ?Sound card : X-fi Titanium Fatalty PCI express
    After plugging in the card to the MB, Windows 7 detected a card there. downloaded generic sound drivers and called the card High Definition Audio Device or something of the sorts. Using the creative auto update prgram, it told me to download the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Driver 2.7.0007. When installing, it would give me an error saying there is a more up to date driver installed already. I know that "HD audio Device" is not the most up to date drivers. I tried uninstalling the drivers then installing the creative one. Win7 constantly installs its own drivers over and over again. I have Home, so i cant use the group policy trick to turn off auto driver install. So i looked through the CD that came with the card and found a force overwrite driver install. Clicked it, Software installed just fine. Restarted windows, installed the latest card drivers perfectly fine. This took me about 3 hours. Not wanting to bang my head anymore i went to bed.
    ?The next day I hit the auto update and its wants me to download a bunch of these creative software packages. I only downloaded Creative Console Launcher 2.6.35, Creative Diagnostics 5..02. Both of these prgrams do not detect the card and will not start. I tried re-installing, starting it up in compatibility with vista, xp. Nothing. I did not want to delve deeper into this knowing i would spend hours non stop trying to figure this out.
    ?The next day Win7 updates tell me to install "Creative - Audio - Creative X-Fi Audio Processor (WDM)", Thinking that Win7 finally recognizes the card, i install. Now there is no system tray icon for audio and the drivers rolled back to 2.6.3? Along with this Win7 update, creative audio control panel was installed and also does not detect any sound device, yet sound is playing just fine and i can access the sound settings through the windows audio panel. I have downloaded Product Identification Module Update. Software stil does not detect sound card.
    ? Yes i have read through many other post across the forums. Sadly, they were lacking a lot of details. I will be updating this post realsing any new details i come across in trying to fix this issues. As to the main point behind this, I would like to know if there is a fix somewhere for my specific problem. That problem being, I am not able to use my soundcard to its full potential and i would like very much to.
    ## After Several registry cleanings and restarts, the tray icon is back again.
    Using the "Creative System Information" program, it does in fact detect the correct hardware and drivers. If anyone would like to see the Creative System Information Report just ask and i'll send it.
    ### Experimenting with the software on the CD, the Creative Volume Panel works, and the AutoMode swticher works just fine. So why is it that these programs work and detect a souncard, but the others dont?

    *Re: Creative software wont detect Hardware& The beat goes on. In searching the Creative web site, I couldn't find my web cam ?model listed and in the download area, it was written that if the model is not present, they no longer support it with updated drivers specifically for W-7 . I have two computers that I have tried to install the web cam on:
    -one running 64 bit W-7. This one sees the mike and ear piece but not the video.(no green light on the camera); attempts to load the drivers from the disc that came with the camera failed.(Repeated several times)
    -one running 32 bit W-7. This one sees the video camera which shows my face on the screen so it works; the audio for the ear piece and the mike can not be seen saying no sound card is present. We took some cards out ?from the original home entertainment model relating to tv and such?but the audio card function?should still be on the motherboard. This computer did run the web cam before in XP with all the extra cards present.
    I think the systems?are using Realtek drivers.

  • Mediashield BIOS hangs Detecting Array

    Apologies for the long post...
    My mobo (MSI P7N Diamond 780i SLI / 570i SLI)
    The SATA drives are organised thus..
    SATA 1 - OCZ Vertex - Windows 7 Home (64bit) Retail version
    SATA 2 - Data HD
    SATA 3 - Mirror A
    SATA 4 - Mirror B
    SATA 5 - Mirror A
    SATA 6 - Mirror B
    more system details below...
    I had the system working reasonable well apart from a flip/flop array dead/alive problem that was really weird. See... https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=132584.0.
    In an attempt to get to the bottom of this problem I decided to install a new dual boot copy of Win 7 on SATA 2. I did this to see if a new install of Windows without my applications showed the same problem.
    On advice from the Win 7 forum, to ensure no corruption during the Win 7 install, I removed the SATA 3/4/5/6 cables from the drives. I then installed the new Win 7 and the latest nVidia raid driver on SATA 2.
    Then I reconnected the SATA 3/4/5/6 cables.
    Booted into the old Win 7 twice - the flip/flop problem still existed there. And then booted into the new Win 7. This showed the erring condition "array dead", but otherwise it worked ok. I restarted the new Win 7 expecting the flip/flop problem to show up, however, I never got into Windows.
    The system hung during the MediaShield BIOS with detecting array.
    The only way I could get it to boot, to get into the BIOS or Windows, was to remove all cables from SATA3/4/5/6.
    If I set the RAID mode to IDE, or disable the drives from RAID mode in the BIOS, I can restart with the cables attached. In windows explorer two of the array drives show up - one from each array. The other two drives show up in the Disk Manager apparently without a file system on them :-( 
    I have had this problem before and I found the only way to fix it was to run Darik's Nuke & Boot on the drives. Repartitioning them and reformatting did not get rid of the hang condition. I never did understand what was left on the drive after repartitioning/formatting that upset MediaShield.
    Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to narrow down to understand what is causing this to happen.
    BTW - This hardware has been running just fine for ages on XP. I have been trying to get a stable Win 7 setup for weeks now.

  • 975X Platinum PUE, 7.2 bios not detecting my SATA2 RAID?

    Just bought this mobo 3 days ago and had everything working great with XP and all, until I decided to update the BIOS to 7.2 (no specific reason, just wanting the latest!).
    Now XP wont boot :(
    It goes through post and all, but it doesnt show the SATA RAID settings (ctrl-i) screen anymore. It seems it only detects the harddrives if I put them as IDE drives in BIOS. If I choose RAID as I had before the flash, it wont detect them.
    It goes through all the bootchoices until resorting to a network boot.
    Should I try flash it back to 7.1?
    Pardon my english

    OK, after sending a troubleshooting report to MSI (very quick response by the way....minutes actually), they stated that they were having no problems with there tests systems that were running RAID 0 and the 7.2, or any other bios for that matter.  They also sent me a 7.33 bios   Of course, I flashed the bios and was greeted with the same problem.     But, that got me to thinking.      So, it tried disabling the Jmicron Controler and it F'N worked!!    
    In a Nut Shell, These are the BIOS setting I tried and the results:
    Jmciron:  IDE   =    No bootable Intel RAID for you.
    Jmicron:  RAID  =   No bootable Intel RAID for you.
    Jmicron:  DISABLED   =  A very bootable Intel RAID for you!   
    I guess trial and error is always good.  Again, MSI was very fast to reply.  I guess I can email this 7.33 if anyone else wants it.  I don't have anywhere to post it.

  • Macbook Pro with Retina wont detect monitor on mini display port to dual-link dvi adapter

    So after reading Jeff Atwood's post, I decided to jump and give it a shot. So this week I got my monitor in from Korea, and I already had my Apple mini display port to dual-link dvi adapter, hooked everything up - and nothing. Monitor doesnt show a signal, and no display shows up in user preferences.
    To verify the monitor actually works, i plugged it into my windows box - and boom, right away there it is in all its glory. So I called apple support, after spending about an hour going through the "are you sure its plugged in stuff", the tech finally admitted to being stumped and blamed the adapter. Not to be deterred, I then went to my local apple store and talked them into trying their adapter to rule out the adapter - regardless of the adapter, the mbp wont detect the monitor.
    Just for fun, i tried my old single mini displayport to single dvi, the monitor is recognized, but that obviously cant drive the right resolution, so i just get a backlight. Same deal when i try the hdmi port with a hdmi to dual-link dvi adapter on the end of it. Also tried display port to the same hdmi with adapter on it (the joys of working in a dev shop - cables to test everywhere)
    I have read / tried a ton of things:
    re-installed / uninstalled air display, just to be sure it was gone. went through all my apps just to see if there is anything like this i could think would be effecting it
    install gfxCardStatus to ensure i am on the nvidia (discrete) and not the internal card
    Played with different settings on SwitchResX to try to force the res over hdmi - no love - os rejected each one
    I bought the monoprice adapter wondering if it was just the apple adapter since the apple adapter has been panned, no love from it either
    Reset the PRAM countless times
    I have two other adapters coming in to test with in a day or two - maybe one of those will be magic, but at this point i kinda think its software on the mac. My Spec:
    I am running Mountain Lion with all the latest updates
    New MBP with Retina (2.6g processor, 16gig ram, nvidia video card)
    Here is the ebay link to the monitor
    Now the other weird thing is pretty much universally these auctions say the monitors cant be run on a laptop - which makes no sense to me, because its just a connection, if the video card is strong enough (which my machine better be) it shouldnt matter the source. The listing mentions its a "by-pass" monitor, which is something I and google have never heard of.
    So any sage words to make my day?

    Magic was, I have to have the adpter plugged into the mac, let it recognize all with the monitor powered off.
    then power on the monitor, and boom gloriousness
    For future generations, setup that works:
    1) MacBook Pro with Retina
    2) Monitor From Korea (example auction)
    3) Accell Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Active adapter (amazon)
    4) Boot mac, plug in adapter, let it recognize the monitor, power on monitor

  • WD Elements External Hard drive wont detect on my MBP anymore. HELP!!

    I was desperate to transfer my files from my WD external drive to my MBP but to no avail. So I searched online and found MacFuse and NTFS-3G. So I installed them both and after that, my WD Elements wont show anymore. It was working before prior to installing MacFuse & NTFS-3G. So I tried to remove them both but still the same problem. It wont detect my WD external drive anymore. The light on my WD drive is lighted up as usual but can't be found on Finder. I also tried to remove the WD external drive from my MBP and it recognises that my WD is there! Its says did not unmount correctly, something like that. I also tried to isolate the problem using another computer, this time, Windows and it works well.
    The Culprit of all this is when I install MacFue & NTFS-3G
    So I am stuck, any help would be highly appreciated.

    Remove MacFuse and NTFS3G. remove them correctly, get the directions from the vendor(s). Don't put it back
    Do you have any backups or are you winging it?

  • After i updated to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything

    After updating my ipad to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything like apps, music,ibooks,app updates,etc. I do have a strong wifi connection, but when i click download, the item gets stuck preparing to download, and doesnt even get to asking for my apple ID password. Help?

    I had the same problem, and I read on other apple blogs it is the WSJ app.  After deleting the app, everything worked for me, so I think it is right.
    Delete WSJ app.
    Close out all apps (swipe up).
    Shut down Ipad by pressing and holding restart button.
    wait 15 seconds.  Restart ipad.
    Everything should work
    With all the other people who have been having this problem and solved it by deleting the WSJ app, cant believe Apple hasn't blocked their app (it prevented all my podcasts, newsstand, and other apps from updating!!!)

  • Itunes wont play anything, windows 7

    itunes wont play anything.i hit play and it goes to pause but does not count down.im guessing it is because of the update that i did to itunes.please help.

    I am having the same problem and that didn't fix it.
    I purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 64 bit. I downloaded the install file. When I double click the icon nothing happens.
    I Downloaded the install cleanup utility and ran that (nothing with itunes in it).
    I Downgraded the UAC to the lowest security setting.
    I re-downloaded the install file and tried again.
    I deleted all the temp files in the user file folder.
    I made the install file compatible with Windows Vista (SP 2).
    Still nothing. I double click (or right click and run as administrator) and nothing happens.

  • 870A-G54 Wont Detect IDE

    Trying to boot up a brand new 870A and it wont detect my IDE CD drive.
    Won't detect where?
    The IDE ports are controlled by a separate controller on this board, check under 'Integrated Peripherals' in BIOS setup, that 'Extra RAID/IDE controller' is [Enabled].
