Calling all you mini ipod whizzes!! - issues with the exclamation folder!

Please help! My mini ipod won't charge or turn on. It's 18 months old now. It is not on hold, I have tried to reset it, charge it and plug it into my computer, all to na avail. When i plug it into the mains to charge, the apple sign comes up briefly, but then the folder sign comes up. I plugged it into my brothers computer, which has his itunes software on, and it said 'do not disconnect' for a period of time, then got stuck on a tick with 'ok to disconnect' on the screen. Again no luck. I would be really grateful for any help you can give me! I am training to do race for life in a couple of weeks and miss my ipod!!

Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.

  • Permissions Issue with the "Shared" Folder

    Hello,
    I’ve been encountering what appears to be an odd bug concerning permissions, notably during the use of the “Shared” folder (/Users/Shared). And I’ve looked around to find solutions, but haven’t come across a similar problem. Hence the post.
    Here’s how it works—or, rather, how it doesn’t work. Two people are using one computer (a MacBook Pro running 10.6.3) and would like to share documents, being able to read and write to them.
    From what I can understand, any document created in a folder should take on that folder’s access privileges. Since the permissions for the “Shared” folder indicate “Read and Write” privileges for all three groups (Me, staff, everyone), then any document created therein should, in principle, allow members of all three groups to read and write to it.
    Well, to cut a long story short, it doesn’t. Whenever a document is created in the “Shared” folder (with Pages or TextEdit, for example), the “Get Info” window shows that only the user who created it has “Read and Write” privileges. Members of the other two groups only have “Read” privileges.
    I ran the “ls –l” command in Terminal on the “Shared” folder, and here is an example of the output for one of the files:
    –rw–r– –r– –@ 1 username staff 342 31 Jan 17:08 Test.rtf
    As far as I can understand, this shouldn’t be happening. I’ve tried logging out and logging back in, rebooting, and repairing permissions from the original installation disk (no problems detected), but nothing changes and I still encounter the same scenario.
    Has anyone run across this issue before? And would anyone know what might be wrong, or even how to fix it?
    Thanks to anyone who might be able to shed some light on this detail to help me understand what is going on here.
    Best regards,
    Stephen

    I suppose you are working on the Mac?
    Which version of the OS?
    Go to the finder, hold down the ALT key and call G, there select the User Library (the one without a shortcut, this entry is without the ALT key not visible).
    Check the permissions of the preferences folder. Select the folder CMD+I
    You must have permission to read and write.

    Vertically installed super slim DVD drives are not as reliable as a plain desktop burner. I've had one fail in two of three iMacs and have always had an external which I use most of the time. Other than that, the brand new iMacs do not have a Super Drive, so if that is what you are inquiring about, the point is moot. You need to buy an external anyway. As far as speed, I have never used a burner at high speed - unless you have a professional model, you can easily get burn errors when burning at a fast speed; sometimes consumer models do well burning with high speeds , other times not.

  • Issue with the pVal.BeforeAction in Item_Pressed event

    Hi all,
    I am facing an issue with the <b>pVal.BeforeAction</b> in the <b>Item Pressed event</b>.
    In delivery notes, When I press the Add button, i am getting the control, which is passing through both of the if blocks [<b>if (pval.BeforeAction=True)</b>block and <b> if(pVal.BeforeAction=False)</b>].
    But
    When I try the delivery using <b>Pick and Pack Manager</b> form with in the Inventory Menu, I am getting the same Delivery form in Add Mode. When I click the Add button in the form, the control  is passing through the <b>if(pCal.BeforeAction=true)</b> block successfully, but after that, the form closes and it never comes to the <b>if(pVal.BeforeAction=false)</b> block.
    I need to run the codes, what i have written in the second if block, in this case also.
    Is it possible?
    Please help me to solve this issues.

    Hi,
    It's a known bug. As Rasmus said try the SBO2005A SP01 FormDataAdd Event.

    ipod nano 7th generation having issues with the UI. Out of box everything worked great. Once I snyc the device and it finished, the UI becomes unuesable. You have to double tap every icon in order to open music, videos, etc.  I cannot swipe to the second page of icons,  black box appears around an icon and then switches to a different one anytime I swipe. A box even appears around the time and battery power. iPod & iTunes are both updated. What is the FIX on this issue?

    I had this problem as well.  This is what I found by searching online.  I tried the fix on my nano 7th gen and it worked.  I hope this helps you.  Make sure to use two fingers for sliding and double-click the icons to get into settings.  Good luck.
    It would seem that Voiceover has been enabled on your iPod Nano. The following article contains information regarding Voiceover, and how to disable it once it's been enabled.
    iPod nano (6th generation and later): How to use VoiceOver
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4317
    To turn off VoiceOver on iPod nano using VoiceOver gestures
    From the Home Screen, swipe right or left with two fingers until you see or hear "Page 2 of 2" on iPod nano (7th generation) or "Settings" on iPod (6th generation).
    If the icons have been rearranged, or if there are more than four Home screens, you may hear something different.
    Slide one finger around the screen until you hear Settings. 
    Double-tap to open Settings. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear General, then double- tap. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear Accessibility, then double-tap. 
    Slide your finger up or down the screen until you see or hear VoiceOver, then double-tap. 
    Double-tap when you hear "VoiceOver switch button on." 
    You'll hear "VoiceOver off" to confirm the setting. Now you can use standard gestures to control iPod nano.
    Note: You can also turn off VoiceOver by resetting your iPod.

  • My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. Any tips?

    My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar

  • I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. It is not an issue with the service/router. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport... anyone know what's up with this?

    I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. I am able to connect to other networks but not my own. It is not an issue with the service/router because other devices connect fine. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport. Last time it happended I called apple and the suggested I wipe my HD and reinstall everything. I did and it did not work. One day I turned my laptop on and it connected no problem. Now it has kicked me off again. I tried resetting my IP address but that does not work either! Has anyone had this problem?

    Try this:
    Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
    Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
    Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
    Apply this.

  • Hi All.  My iPad 4 just started having issues with the volume.  On either Bluetooth or the iPad Speaker, anything I'm watching or listening to drops the sound to just barely hearing it and then, about 2 seconds later, it comes back.

    Hi All,
    I tried to search through the community, but with the sheer volume of posts, I didn't find anything that seemed like the same issue.
    My iPad 4 just started having issues with the volume.  On either Bluetooth or the iPad Speaker, anything I'm watching or listening to drops the sound to just barely hearing it and then, about 2 seconds later, it comes back.
    I haven't tried wired ear phones, but I am sure they'll be the same way.
    It's very random, but consistent enough to happen several times per day.
    Thanks for any help that anyone can provide.
    I have restarted it and also did a Hard Reboot and it didn't help.
    Thanks Again,
    Scott P.

    Well there you go, when you advertise it just be sure to say that you can't even see the scratches at half brightness and see how it goes.
    Of course you are saying you want $500 for one with many scratches on the screen, has been dropped, but the scratches aren't visible at half brightness, and has no warranty. Or I can buy a refurbished iPad 4 WiFi 32 GB directly from Apple with no scratches and a one year warranty for $499. http://store.apple.com/us/product/FD514LL/A/refurbished-ipad-with-retina-display -wi-fi-32gb-white-4th-generation
    Why would I buy yours?
    I wouldn't pay more than $300 for a used model with your specs in perfect condition. But yours is far from perfect. I think your high point is $250 which is why I said 50%.

    Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
    Do you have any other suggestions?
    Thank you!

  • IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW

    IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW ON WIFI JUST TURN OFF GLOBAL MODE!! DONT ASK ME WHY THIS WORKS BUT IT DOES.  I TOOK MY FIRST PHONE BACK TO THE STORE BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS DEFECTIVE BUT THEN MY REPLACEMENT DID THE SAME THING.  GLOBAL MODE IS WHAT THE PHONE IS SET TO USE OUT OF THE BOX.  I SWITCHED IT TO LTE/CDMA AND NOW IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY.  AWESOME

    I'm glad you had luck with this.  I have the same issue, and i've replaced the droid turbo 4 times.  I've tried it on 4 or 5 different wifi networks and it doesn't give me any type of speed at all. 

  • How do you fix the issues with the OS X mountain lion? Screen freezes pages just swipe on own

    Having issues with the lion operating system

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    1) When I go to the apple.com website my computer will either be really slow or freeze my whole system down to where I have to reboot my computer again. This does not happen all the time but when it does operate it is molasses slow.

  • HT1918 How do you solve an issue with the card? I don't get the option of 'none' :(

    How do you solve an issue with the card? I don't get the option of 'none'

    I had this exact same problem with the new iPhone I bought on 1/4/13. The walk through they provide on how to do this is useless because it fails to explain that if you are already having the problem of not getting the "None" payment option with an Apple ID then you will need to create a completely new Apple ID.
    I had to do this 7 times since I bought my iPhone on Friday until this morning to figure out how to finally be able to use the Home Sharing option in iTunes to put my music collection on my brand new $500.00 iPhone. Pretty pathetic if you ask me but since it made me so angry I want to make sure other know how to do this so you don't get as upset as I did.
    #1 If your current or soon to be "old" Apple ID is not providing the option for "None" as a payment option then you need to make a brand new one. But you have to make it specifically how I tell you.
    #2 You will need to use an email address that has not already been used for anything related to a previous Apple ID. You might need to make a brand new email address.
    #3 Open iTunes, then open iTunes Store (upper right corner of iTunes).
    #4 Click on App Store (upper center of screen).
    #5 Scroll down the screen page until you see Top Free Apps on the right side.
    #6 Choose any one of the FREE apps.
    #7 You should either get the option to create a new Apple ID box, either that, or it will pop up with some kind of disclaimer and then it does the create new Apple ID.
    Either way just create a new Apple ID when it gives you the option to and then when you get to the page that looks like the payment page the "None" payment option will finally be available.
    Note: You will still have to fill out the information on the payment page. As long as you choose the "None" option it will not request any credit card information.
    #8 You will be sent a confirmation email to the new email account. Just follow through with what ever it tells you and viola now you can use your Apple Device.
    What a pain in the keester, eh?
