Computer reboots shortly after connecting cable to ipod

Just recent got new fifth gen ipod 30 and installed itunes, set up library and playlists. Now ready to connect cable to my USB 2.0 and within 30 seconds after connecting, BAM my computer reboots itself. I later get a signiture message 'BCCODE:19'(and more info). The ipod display prior to reboot indicates "do not disconnect" however, it freezes after the reboot. HELP!! Ipod has downloaded some songs but I need help troubleshooting possible hardware or software conflicts to make any headway. What are my options to remedy this problem forever? Thank you.

Hi Sherif
It's probably worth trying a couple of standard trouble shooting techniques:
- Reset the PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
- Reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Resetting the SMC often fixes battery/power supply issues; resetting the PRAM probably won't make any difference but it only takes a few seconds and is quite harmless.

Computer reboots when I connect my iPod to a USB 2.0 slot

Here are my specs:
- I have the new iPod 60 GigaByte hardrive version.
- Operating System on my PC: Windows XP
- CPU: AMD Athalon XP 1.8 gHz
- My PC is several years old and has four built-in USB 1.1 slots. My iPod works on all of these USB 1.1 ports, albeit slow. (And when I connect iPod to these slots, I get the message telling me I have a high speed device connected to a non-high speed USB port, which I understand.)
- I just installed a Dual-Link USB 2.0 and Firewire PCI card (from ADS tech) into an empty PCI slot on my PC. It has 3 USB 2.0 slots and two Fire-wire slots. The card is properly installed because windows immediately recognized it.
Now, I have tested two other devices on my new USB 2.0 slots. I have tested my mouse and a logitech gaming controller (although these devices are actually based on the older USB 1.1 technology), and these devices work in the USB 2.0 slots.
But, when I connect the iPod to any of the USB 2.0 slots, I get the little bell sound meaning that the computer is recognizing it. The iPod then displays the "Do not disconnect" message. But then the computer will begin rebooting by iteself. It will then attempt to reboot windows and almost gets there, but then reboots again. It continues this never-ending cycle of rebooting until I disconnect the iPod and then the computer reboots completely. Inserting the iPod will cause it to reboot again. This happens whether or not I have the iTunes program running.
Can anyone give me insight for resolving this problem? Has anyone else had this problem before?

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

also when i manualy start i-tunes and then connect the i-pod the comp also shuts down.\

thnx in advance

Are you getting any sort of blue screen before the PC reboots? If so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x\[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
If the blue screen mentions a specific file (for example, “ati3duag.dll”), let us know what that is called too. (Exact spelling, please.)
Here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:
Troubleshooting Windows Stop Messages
If you're not seeing a blue screen (or if you’re just seeing a flash of a blue screen before the PC reboots), we can use the following technique to make hidden blue screens appear for us:
1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.
With those settings in place, does a blue screen appear before the PC reboots?

Firewire networking with PC (PC goes blue-screen after connecting cable)

I made netwrok shareing between PC and macmini(PowerPC) via Firewire cable.
Internet <-> PC(192.168.0.1) <-(firewire)-> Mac mini(192.168.0.2 - router address 192.168.0.1)
There was no problem at first, until I got updated OSX by last release(10.4.7).
But after I update my OSX, PC gets blue-screen every time when the network is on(after boot or connecting cable).
I tried PC with TI 1394, and Agere chpset.
and found the same problem.
Does anyone has the same problem or has solution?
Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them.

My computer reboots when i connect iphone 4

Any ideas...
I plug it in, it finds new hardware...thinks its a camera...and reboots itself.
Happens if I tunes is already going or not.
Was fine for the first few days then I took photos yesterday morning, now it reboots computer,
Not much use having a camera phone if I have to delte the photos to connect to my computer

No, it is a conflict with the webcam driver. It is a well known problem. You probably did not uninstall the driver correctly or uninstalled the wrong driver, but the best fix is to update the driver to the latest version, which does not have this bug.
The reason it doesn't happen if you have no photos is the iPhone does not register as a digital camera if there are no photos in the camera roll.

Computer completely crashing after plugging in any ipod except touch

For a while now, every time I plug in any ipod, any generation excluding touch/iphone, a gray window will popup saying I have to reboot the computer.
I figured out that the computer isn't responding well to the hard-drive function of the iPods if it helps.
I'm running 10.5.6 on a 24" iMac intel

HI,
*" popup saying I have to reboot the computer."*
Did you restart your Mac to see if it made a difference?
That gray popup dialog is referred to as a, 'kernel panic"...

Computer crashes shortly after turning on

After turning on my compute, there is the white apple screen. At this point a bar at the bottom starts to load (as if I installed new software). As the bar loads the computer shuts off. Any tips?
Thanks

HI,
Boot from your install disc. Run Disk Utility to see if the startup disk needs repairs.
Insert your install disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
Go to Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
Select First Aid in the Main panel.
*(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
Select your start up disk and click Restart
While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window. Where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% to 15% free disk space*
If you cannot boot from your install disc, try booting in Safe Mode

Let's try it this way.
While in Control Panel in the top right hand corner should be a search box.
In the search box type "Auto Play" and then the options you are presented with should include "Change default setting for media or devices"

Corrupted iPod Data After Connecting 2 XBOX: Suggested Software 4 Recovery?

Hello! Recently after connecting my 120gb iPod Classic to my xbox I lost all my music, movies, pictures, and games apparently. Though I cannot see the files I can however see that one hundred some odd gigs of data are on the ipod. I was just wondering what steps I could take for recovery. Thanks in advance for your help!
Sidebar: I recently lost all the data on my iMac's hard drive and DriveSavers was only able to recover 50% of my drive. If I cannot recover the music from my ipod I will have lost it for good unfortunately. If you could help it would be GREATLY appreicated. To give you an idea of what i've tried so far, I purchased Stellar Phoenix's Mac recovery softward. It appears to have found some music but it keeps locking up. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

*Recover media from iPod*
Check out this post from Zevoneer for options on moving your iPod data back to your computer.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9935961#9935961
Some of the tools rely on a fuctioning iPod database which yours obviously lacks, some are able to work with the raw files and a few even claim to be able to rebuild the database on the iPod.
And I've just recalled this from an ancient post of mine...
All the significant data about where your data is stored on the iPod is held in the file \iPod_Control\iTunes\iTunes.db. If this file is lost or damaged the iPod won't be able to find your tunes, even though the data is on the harddrive. Sometimes it is possible to rename a temp copy of the database, presumably made just before the last update, but these are not always present.
If you can get to see the hidden files on your iPod you might have such a file you could rename, it's a long shot but it might pay off.

Computer reboots when connecting ipod to USB cable.

Has this happened to anyone else?
All of a sudden now, whenever I connect my ipod to the USB cable, it makes my computer reboot! And it doesn't stop rebooting until I disconnect the ipod!
I have no idea why this is happening, and I don't know how to make it stop.
I am really starting to lose my faith in EVERY item that Apple has created.

When I connect my ipod to USB immediately following taking it off my AC adapter, it causes my computer (PC, XP) to restart.
Reinstall Windows. This has nothing to do with iTunes or any other Apple software, because that functionality is entirely Windows based.
If reinstalling windows fresh (and doing all the updates) doesn't fix it, then you have a hardware problem on the PC.

I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV. The computer flashes blue after I plug the cable in but the TV says there is no signal. I have a Mac Book Pro 2009 and a Samsung 32" Class (31.5" Diag.) 450 Series 720p LCD HDTV (2010 model)

Hello,
I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV. The computer flashes blue after I plug the cable in but the TV says there is no signal.
I have a Mac Book Pro 2009 and a Samsung 32" Class (31.5" Diag.) 450 Series 720p LCD HDTV (2010 model).
I am using a mini display port to VGA adapter. I have sucessfully hooked up boh devices but it stopped working after a handful of times. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the problem or is my cable broken?

Some things you can try.

Computer reboots as soon as I connect my iPod to USB 2.0

Mine does this too. I've got an older IBM ThinkPad T30 with USB 1 built-in, running Windows XP SP2. So, I bought a PCMCIA USB 2.0 adapter card. All of my other devices (external hard drives, etc.) work just fine when they're plugged into it. However, when I plug my iPod into it, Windows shows a "blue screen of death" for just a second, then it reboots the ThinkPad.
I'm betting that it's a driver issue with the PCMCIA adapter card, so I'm going to start troubleshooting there. If I find a fix, I'll post it here!

TS1369 My ipod ejects itself, immediately after connecting with usb cable, before synchronizing could start. What's wrong?

My ipod ejects itself, immediately after connecting with usb cable, before synchronizing could start. What’s wrong?

Have you tried plugging the iPod in with a different USB sync cable to verify the issue is not with the cable? It might not also hurt to connect it to another USB port as well.
Otherwise, try manually placing the iPod into Disk Mode and then connecting it to your PC.
