  • I switched off my ipod touch 4g during an ios6 update

    it was during the ios6 update that i realised for some reason i did not want to update it because of what my friends told me, it had nothing beneficial for the ipod touch 4g, so i decided to switch off my ipod touch 4g and now it would not turn on the only thing that i could do with it was restart it which  i have done over 40 times and it either shows the apple logo and then goes dull or turns blue to yellow, yellow to white, grey to white etcetera.
    Can someone please help me i don't know what to do with it i've looked everywhere for a solution.
    and my dog bit through the top of my usb lead. **** you bellatrix
    thanks, Brittanny Pegg

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Will Switching Off the iPod Touch Button affect the process of erasing iPod Touch Contents?

    I have already deleted contacts, e-mail addresses, video,
    music, and photos on my iPod Touch (2nd Generation). I am presenting the list of items I deleted in "Notes" PRIOR to
    pressing "Erase Contents And Settings" button on that device.
    a.) Tel. Phone No. Neighbor
    b.) Christina Allison
    c.) Asian Stuff & Desserts
    d.) Youtube Channels/Links & Dailymotion
    e.) Apology & Appeal Letter
    f.) Movie Miscellaneous
    g.) Download Apple iOS4 – The new iPhone, iPod touch OS
    h.) Draft & Hello Dear Microsoft
    i.) SPSecFiles
    j.) Things to do on weekends
    k.) Brian prepares to write the letter certifying I am utilized to work.
    l.) Adjustment0S
    m.) Tweets and Twitter
    n.) VOCATIONAL EVALUATION
    At the time, my iPod Touch was fully charged. After deleting everything, I pressed "ERASE CONTENTS AND SETTINGS" button.
    I switched off my iPod Touch button IN ERROR because the process world take long. I repeat: After deleting everything, I pressed "ERASE CONTENTS AND SETTINGS" button. I switched off my iPod Touch button IN ERROR because the process world take long.
    What am I supposed to do next?

    - What happens when you turn the iPod back on?
    - For a 1G and 2G Pod, erasing all contents and settings can take hours and you need to have it connected to a chargings source.
    - You may have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then retore via iTunes.  For recoverymode:

  • Can't switch off my ipod

    i know it sounds stupid...people having problems with switching it on..i have problem with switching it off...I've been using my ipod for a year...but now i couldn't switch it off anymore...i had to leave it on while it's charing...it really annoys me...has anyone got a clue what's happening here?

    Well in some instances the iPod might get into a state in which it needs to be drained completely before it can be reset so try these steps.
    1. Disconnect iPod from all power sources and leave it disconnected for about 24 hours.
    2. Reconnect iPod to the Apple iPod Power Adapter or the computer and reset it.

  • Volume switch off but IPOD plays through speakers

    I was at a conference today and turned my iphone off so it would not ring. After about 5 hours I started messing with my phone (I know I shouldn't have but...) Anyways, all sounds are muted except IPOD functions. Songs and movies play through the speaker even when the mute swithch is activated. Anyone else have this? Is it in need of a fix or am I missing another place to mute the phone?

    Page 37 of the iPhone User Guide describes the switch as a ring/silence switch.
    Page 96 states that when set to silent, the phone will not play any ring, alert or effects sounds. It does play alarms set by the clock.
    Go to Settings - Sounds on your iPhone to see what is controlled by the ring/silent switch. Don't fool with anything else while "in conference".

  • Cant delete off the IPOD

    Upgraded to a new nano but it will not allow me to delete off audiobooks, it does not allow me to highlight. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Any ideas?
    Message was edited by: Coffee Dude

    Welcome to AD!
    Your new nano is most likely set to autosync, so everything on the nano is grayed out.
    You can go into the ipod settings when it is connected. On the Music tab, uncheck the box to sync the audiobooks playlist, and they should get removed.
    Otherwise you can set your ipod to manually manage music. Everything will not be grayed out anymore and you can delete that way....but then your ratings and playcounts will not sync from the ipod back into itunes.

  • Hi am unable to switch off my ipod culd u kindly guide

    can any answer my question please?

    Hello, Roger!
    Thanx again!
    I did manage to force-quit and re-start my iMac.
    Wrt the attached screen-shot; it shows that I need to download the OS X Mountain Lion but in reality; I DID download it on the same day of its purchase - yesterday. However; it shows that it stll need to be downloaded.
    Secondly; on the "updates"; one can also see that the iTunes 11.0.1 is available for the  update. Hence I clicked to update it yesterday. It was at that time; it began to update [I think] and continued - non-stop - since yesterday till I force-stopped it today; as per your suggestion.
    My questions are:
    1: Do I need to download the Mountain Lion once again?
    2: If I download it again, what do I do; if it still shows - as attached "available for download"?
    3: Should I update the itunes before [OR without] downloading the Mountain Lion once again?
    4: To be able to update the iTunes as mentioned above; do I need to purchase it separately?
    Thanking you,
    With warmest regards,
    Alhad Kothare

  • I cant switch off firefox

    I run a 3year old HP pc, with a 64 bit windows 7. being dissatisfied wth microsoft, and google, I downloaded firefox 2 days ago, this morning it wont load,gamil, ebay etc, so i thought i would delete and reload.It wouldnt let me delete, it says something about closing firefox first, BUT ITS NOT RUNNING, I downloaded a fresh firefox, and it still wont replace the existing one, IT STILL SAY I MUST CLOSE EXISTING FIREFOX< WHICH IS NOT REPEAT NOT RUNNING, how can I resolve this matter, I am 70 years old and not a computer buff by any means!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If you press ctrl+alt+delete it may actually be stuck in the process tab in the Task Manager. If it is just click on Firefox.exe and click end process. It should shut it down. That happens to my mom if she opens it once and shuts it down after that sometimes. Other than that I don't really know. I hope this helps a bit.

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

  • Ipod will not switch off

    Every time I switch off my ipod ie press and hold pause/play button, the screen goes blank then instantly comes back on again. Then the screen goes off and on at regular intervals until fully discharged. Any help resolving this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I know you can reset it by holding the circle and menue buttons at the same time for like 15 seconds... but why its doing it can be many things.

  • Switching off loses sync information?

    If I completely switch off my iPod Touch, it loses all the info of played songs, and when I sync it later with iTunes on my Mac (both have latest updates), it does not sync the info in songs in iTunes (last played).
    If I just lock it, it maintains the last-plaeyd-info and correctly conveys that info to iTunes when syncing with my iMac.
    IS this the normal behavior? If so, that is very unfortunate...

    Seemingly Fixed as of now :
    1. Took out the battery and swapped another Z10's battery
    2. Put a Business card between the Battery door and the battery
    3. Loaded the OS 10.2
    Working beautifully now for the last 11 hours.
    I believe it is some issue with the new Release of the OS - should be fixed in the next release.

  • HT1212 iPhone can't be switched off

    I have a message telling me that Icloud not backed up and then I cant switch off the phone or do anything. When i connected it to the computer, since the screen is frozen with that message, I cant log in to the Itunes as well.

    Hey!
    I have tried holding down the home and power button countless of times. It doesnt respond at all. Plug my phone to a charger and hold down the power button and my phone switched on. But it said Activation Required and said connect to Itunes. As e screen remains on the connect to Itunes screen, I disconnect the charger from my phone and my phone went dead instantly. My battery is full btw. Tried connecting to Itunes through my Macbook Pro but iTunes doesnt detect my device and the apple logo flashes for about a few seconds on my phone and then disappear and then came back on again. My Iphone has been connected to my laptop for about 30 mins and the apple logo has been coming on and off for 30 minutes now and Itunes has not detect my device yet.
    SIGHHH.

  • Shuffle goes back to begining when switched off

    Is this the norm? My shuffle doesn't remember where it was on the play list when it is switched off and on again, unless it is on shuffle. It returns to the begining of the play list each time. Also on shuffle it doesn't play the whole play list and seem to be in a 'loop'.

I have also restartet and restored my ipod yet, but also this don't work. I also do not press pause befor switching off my ipod, but all this does not help. do you have any other solutions?
