DBMS_PARALLEL_EXEUCTE is not working for insert query.. Need help !!

Hi All..
I am trying to use the dbms_parallel_execute package to insert into my target table.
But at the end of execution, the rows not getting inserted into the target table.
Could any one please help on this?
Below are the statements....
create table target_table as select * from source_table where 1=0;
--source_table has 100000 rows.
BEGIN
  DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE.create_task (task_name => 'test1');
END;
BEGIN
  DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE.create_chunks_by_rowid(task_name   => 'test1',
                                               table_owner => 'SYSTEMS',
                                               table_name  => 'TARGET_TABLE',
                                               by_row      => TRUE,
                                               chunk_size  => 10000);
END;
DECLARE
  l_sql_stmt VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
  l_sql_stmt := 'insert into PRD_TAB
     select * from dbmntr_prd_tab';
  DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE.run_task(task_name      => 'test1',
                                 sql_stmt       => l_sql_stmt,
                                 language_flag  => DBMS_SQL.NATIVE,
                                 parallel_level => 10);
END;
After executing the above statement, I can find the targt_table has zero rows.. Could anyone please correct me If I am wrong with any of above statements?

Could anyone please correct me If I am wrong with any of above statements?
As Hoek said you haven't created the SQL statement properly. See the 'RUN_TASK Procedure section of the  DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE chapter of the doc
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e16760/d_parallel_ex.htm#CHDIBHHB
sql_stmt
SQL statement; must have :start_id and :end_id placeholder
That doc has an example in it.

    Hi Bitia,
    As per my understanding, after you add Item field to the report, it does not calculate total of matl group, right? If that is the case, please refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the problem:
    Modify the dataset used to retrieve data, delete the fields will not be used in the report.
    Run the query in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to make sure that there is data for matl cost group.
    Make sure that row group and totals are correctly added.
    In addition, do you want to add Finished date to page header? If that is the case, we can use ReportItem to achieve the goal. Please refer to the following steps:
    In design surface, right-click the report and click Insert, then click Page Header.
    Drag Text Box from Toolbox to page header.
    Right-click inside of Text Box, then click Expression.
    In the expression text box, type the code like below:
    =ReportItems!FinishedDate.Value
    If the problem remain unresolved, please provide the screenshot of the report in design view, the following screenshot is for your reference:

  • Internal Microphone not working for L505D-S5983 (PLEASE HELP!)

    Hi,
    I can't seem to get my internal microphone to work. I have enabled it under Sound->Manage Audio Devices
    ->Recording tab. However the green vertical bar does not detect any voice. After setting the Microphone boost to +40dB, it detected some noise (since it has some green light) but I realized it wasn't detecting my voice. Since this did not work, I re-set the Microphone boost to only +10dB.  I only have one internal microphone and no external microphone. 
    I have seen many postings on internal microphones not working on Toshiba laptops but couldn't find a solution to mine. Can someone please help? I think it's about time that Toshiba fix this issue after the countless complaints.

    No mentions of reinstalling the sound driver. That sometimes turns on the microphone.

  • Ldap authentication not working for Solaris 8 host - Help!

    Greetings folks,
    I just recently migrated a host to use LDAP authentication. The only difference between this host and the rest of the hosts in the environment that I've converted to use LDAP is that this one is running Solaris 8.
    Here's the steps I took to migrate it (though, I used the same steps for another Sol8 host in another environment and it works fine):
    ldapclient -P stg -d mydomain.com -D cn=proxyagent,ou=profile,dc=mydomain,dc=com -w secret 192.168.1.69
    My /etc/nsswitch.conf looks like this:
    passwd: files ldap
    group: files ldap
    My /etc/pam.conf looks like this:
    login auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1
    login auth required pam_dhkeys.so.1
    login auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1
    login auth required pam_ldap.so.1
    sshd auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1
    sshd auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1
    sshd auth required pam_ldap.so.1
    other auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1
    other auth required pam_dhkeys.so.1
    other auth sufficient pam_unix_auth.so.1
    other auth required pam_ldap.so.1
    passwd auth sufficient pam_passwd_auth.so.1
    passwd auth required pam_ldap.so.1
    I've also cleared out the local user accounts for my human users, so there aren't any more passwd or shadow entries (yes, I ran pwconv). I also cleaned out the /etc/group entries for the same users. The machine appears to be configured properly, because I can run various DS commands that indicate this:
    hostname# getent passwd user1
    user1::1001:1001:User 1:/opt/home/user1:/bin/bash
    hostname# ldaplist -l passwd user1
    dn: uid=user1,ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=com
    shadowFlag: 0
    userPassword: {crypt}(removed)
    uid: user1
    objectClass: posixAccount
    objectClass: shadowAccount
    objectClass: account
    objectClass: top
    cn: user1
    uidNumber: 1001
    gidNumber: 1001
    gecos: User 1
    homeDirectory: /opt/home/user1
    loginShell: /bin/bash
    However, in the end, actual logins to this host fail via ssh. Snooping the traffic reveals that all the right info is being handed back to the client, including the crypt'ed password hash, uid, etc. just like I see with other hosts that work.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Patrick

    I assume you have applied lastest kernel patch and 108993 to this Solaris8 machine, and its nss_ldap.so.1 and pam_ldap.so.1 are the same as the other Solaris8 LDAP clients that are working for ssh via LDAP auth.
    1) Please replace "objectClass: account" with "objectClass: person", I know SUN ONE DS5.2 likes "person".
    2) Did you test and verify telnet/ftp/su working? but SSH not working?
    3) If telnet/ftp/su all worked, and SSH (SUN-SSH or OpenSSH), make sure you have "UsePAM yes" in sshd_config and restart sshd.
    4) It is not a must I think but normally I will add "shadow: files ldap" to /etc/nsswitch.conf, restart nscd after that.
    5) Whenever ldapclient command is run and ldap_cachemgr is restarted, I usually also restart nscd and sshd after that, if not testing result may not be accurate as nscd is still remembering OLD stuffs cached which could be very misleading.
    6) You may use "ssh -v userid@localhost" to watch the SSH communications, on top of your usual "snoop"ing of network packets.
    7) Use the sample pam.conf that is meant for pam_ldap from Solaris 10 system admin guide with all the pam_unix_cred.so.1 lines commented out. This works for me, there is no sshd defintions as it will follow "other".

  • My iPod is not working...I need help!

    About a week ago I noticed that the buttons and touch wheel began not working properly on my 1st gen. nano. I keep it on the car adapter/charger most of the time. I took it off a few days ago and the buttons and touch wheel do not work at all. The only way that I can see the screen is if I slide the hold button on and then back to off, however, once the screen lights up I can not do anything with it. I was able to reset the iPod a few times but that did not help....what do I do next?? any help would be appreciated

  • Reverse SSH not working for Cisco 3750.Plz help.

    Hi,
    I have configured the reverse ssh mentioned on the cisco document:http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t11/feature/guide/gt_rssh.html#wp1051457.
    But now I am running into the issue that When I  issue command ssh -l alex:rotary1 192.38.6.8 from the cli of the router  I’m presented with a password prompt.
    I  enter my password and get connected. However at this point when I type, for  example, the atdt command I don’t see any output  displayed.
    So I  tried typing command atdt <tel no.> and at the same time ran a debug modem  on a separate session. It was from the separate session I could see the call  been made to the remote device and connected successfully. However almost  immediately the modem debug displays message 0236596: Dec  7 2010  12:18:18.236 GMT: TTY69: cleanup pending. Delaying DTR. At no point do I see  output displayed on the session where I connected to the  modem.
    When using telnet to  connect, i.e using the same modem and the same remote device, we have had no  problems it is just with SSH.
    Any suggestion on this will be highly appriciated.
    Thanks
    Alex.

    Philip,
    I first thank you for coming forward to help me on this.
    I use the 30DM(Digital Modem) Card on the router. I have configured on of this modem  on the PRI card(1/18) to make outbound calls. We use this dailup to cyclades the devices located on our remote office. Hence we loose the main internet connectivity we use this option as a backup.

  • Selectively required not working for af:query component

    Hi Experts,
    one small issue.
    I have a search form and the user is supposed to enter atleast one criteria before clicking on search.
    So I opened the View Criteria and marked validation as "Selectively Requried" on all the criteria conditions in the group.
    When I open the page, I see ** infront of every field and error is coming properly when I click search without entering any values
    Problem is even if I enter few or all the values also, still error comes saying atleast one is required.
    Am I missing anything?
    or is there any programmatic way of doing the same?

    I am new to ADF ... but what i have observed is that in case the View Criteria involves search in various levels also (for e.g. Master-Detail or Master-Detail-Detail) , then at least one attribute from each level is required, if they are marked as Selectively required.
    The error message clearly tells you which attribute(s) is required. sometimes it may say Attrib1 is required or any one of Attrib1, Attrbi2, Attrib3 is required. Either I am missing something and doing it all wrong. Or it may make some sense. But still dnt understand the reason.
    Would appreciate, if somebody can throw some light on how the double asterisk(** ) behaviour i.e. Selectively Required, when search involves various levels ?

  • Range Expander not working .. Desperately needed HELP

    I just bought the wireless expander yesterday. At first, i followed the instructions which came with it. As my network is WPA-enabled, i insert the CDrom to start the utility. Everything went well and the utility was able to find my network and the wireless expander. My network had a boosted range after that.  However, after one of my family members accidentally pressed the auto configuration button, everything went haywired.
    I tried to reset the wireless expander and start the utility again. However, this time,  the utility wasn't able to find the wireless expander.I tried it over and over again , to no avail.
    I came to this forum and realized that quite a lot of people are facing the same problems as me. I followed the solutions as stated. I was able to get 2 blue lights lit after that. However, my laptop kept prompting something abt ip (can't remember the exact words) And i can't used the internet at all. I went on the forum and found the solution to it. I did what it says but it's still the same. So i decided to reset the wireless expander and at the same time taking note of the ip problem.
    However, after i reset the wireless expander, whatever i did wasn't able to get the 2 blue lights lit. I have been at this for 6 hrs and on my way to madness.
    Can someone help me out here?
    My Modem : Motorola ( Can't remember the exact model)
    My wireless router : NetGear WGR614 v5
    My wireless expander : Linksys WRE54G v2
    What i did :
    1) I connected the wireless expander to my laptop using an ethernet cable. Thus, getting a lan connection.
    2) I changed the static ip address of it
    IP -- 192.168.1.155
    Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0
    Default gateway -- 192.168.1.1
    3) I was able to access to http://192.168.1.240
    4) I changed the settings
    ok -- here's the problem ..
    When i run cmd --> ipconfig /all --> i get ip: 192.168.1.137
                                                                   subnetmask : 255.255.255.0
                                                            default gateway : 192.168.1.1
    When i went to my wireless router settings it was  IP : 222.164.18.197
                                                                       Subnet mask : 255.255.248.0
                                                                       Default gateway: 222.164.16.1
    I do not know which one to use , so i tried both settings. For the 1st one, everything went fine , until after the power cycle. The blue lights still did not lit up .
    For the 2nd IP , i can't even get the webpage to change my settings.
    I have tried a combination of things. Set the SSID to the same as my wireless router SSID . I have download the firmware and yet when i tried it , all 3 trys were used and nothing happened.
    I have tried doing this over and over again , looking for a step that i might have missed , but i think that i have reached my wit's end..
    SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!

    MINdReAdEr, yep you are in trouble with the unit. The WRE54G does a good job but it can be quirky to set up. When I bought mine from Amazon, i went first to the Customer reviews for info and I there found the right way(s) to install the unit. First of all, of course, forget about the CD instructions. Too frustrating when they start to backfire. ************************************ Better ways - got from Amazon (in fact, go there and search for WRE54G and see all review): ************************************ 1. The one below outlines easy installation if your network/wireless router are on the SAME SUBNET AS THE WRE RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX, i.e. 192.168.1.xx 279 of 285 people found the following review helpful: It does what it's supposed to, once you can set it up, August 1, 2004 By Anthony Taylor (Sherman Oaks, CA) - See all my reviews If you're having trouble setting it up, definitely call the 800 number as opposed to going online. I tried with three different people through their website online and none could help. Right before I sent it back I decided to try phone support and it got the expander a reprieve. I've copied some instructions that Y.A. Escalante was kind enough to leave in his review, but corrected and elaborated some of the items based on my experience. I would've given this 4 stars, but I deducted 1 for it not having clear enough instructions with its initial shipping. (Would've saved Linksys some headaches) Here goes: 1-Disable WEP on your Router or AP 2-Hold the auto-configuration button for 30 seconds(if everything goes well both lights on the expander will turn blue) and unplug while still holding button. Plug back in after 10-15 secs. 3-open your Internet explorer browser and type 192.168.1.240 (default ip of expander), a window will pop up. leave the user name blank and put admin as a password (this is default password). 4-make sure that the default gateway and subnet mask settings are identical with your Router or AP,change password on the expander if desired & save settings. (all settings should be correct due to auto configuration) 5-Enable WEP on the expander, once again remember use same settings as in your Router or AP, save settings again. 6-Go to your Router or Ap settings and enable WEP. Bang you're DONE. Enjoy Hope this helps some of you...if not call the 800 number on the box and be patient. ******************************** 2. The one I put together with help from forums and amazon customer reviews applies to cases where the Router and the network are on a DIFFERENT subnet than the WRE out of the box (mine for example is 192.168.0.xx), and also when you want to install the WRE WITHOUT doing anything to the wireless router on your network (I like that!): 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: WRE54G: as usual w. Linksys product, installation is rough, January 16, 2007 By Roger J. Thomas "WirelessInn" (ZUNI, NM United States) - See all my reviews I am getting to think that I buy Linksys products just because I am getting used to their idiosynchrasis - i.e. the products' installation instructions are basically somehow flawed (even though I am sure they work if one makes a few adjustments to what the manuals say!) I must also say that product reviews by users on Amazon.com are an excellent source of technical info/help. My setup consists of a Satellite (Hughes) internet service with corresponding modem, feeding into a WRT54G Linksys Wireless Router which in turn is connected via cat5 to a Desktop and wirelessly to a Dell Laptop. I have to mention that the range of the WRT54G (a stock v.5 unit) is very good as it is. I want to use the WRE54G to extend range. 0. DO NOTHING to your wireless router (mine is a WRT54G - see above) - leave Router's IP address/channel alone and encryption (WPA or WPE) in place if you are using such protection. That's what I like about those steps: no disruption of the wireless network's settings in use! Also, my wireless laptop is at WRE54G install time in range of the Wireless Router. NOTE: That Laptop can actually be any computer. Preferably however one normally used as wireless unit on the network including the Internet connection>B'Band Modem > Wireless router > and now the WRE54G. 1. Change the IP of that computer/laptop you are using to setup the WRE54G if needed - i.e. if that computer's IP (from the local LAN NIC, not the wireless card) is on another subnet than 192.168.1.xx. Use something like 192.168.1.1 for example. This is necessary to access the WRE54G's internal web screen (default: 192.168.1.240). Disable wireless on the computer you are usng to set up the WRE54G. 2. MAKE SURE that your internet connection DOES NOT at this time do through a proxy - mine normally does (Satellite Internet provider=Direcway/Hughes - proxy server advised/required). You have to dig really deep into Linksys EsyAnswer/KB site to even see that suggestion!! Momentarily disable proxy server in IE > Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN settings. I.e. the wired LAN connection you are using to set up the WRE54G must not go thru any TCP/IP proxy. 3. Power up and connect the WRE (I have version 3) to that computer's newly re-IP'd LAN port (the WRE54G comes with a short cat5 cable). So, at this point, BOTH the WRE54G and your LAN connection are on 192.168.1.xx subnets. 4. Just to make sure that a LAN connection has been established, ping the WRE thus connected. Should return satisfactory result. (Again, the computer wireless connection should be disabled at this point) 5. Access the WRE's web screen via 192.168.1.240. Screen should come up. Defaut PW is of course admin at this time. 6. And now we are ready to enter specific information pertaining to your own wireless network, as follows: a. Enter - if necessary - the IP address you want the WRE54G to have on your wireless network - to be on same subnet as Wireless router used for your wireless network. My network is on subnet 192.168.0.xx: I set the WRE54G on IP address 192.168.0.240. b. Same with subnet and gateway c. Check mode (mixed/b or g only) d. SAME CHANNEL as the router e. Enter new SSID and enable/disable broadcast - same settings as Wireless Router's. 7. Now it is time to select/enter Wireless Security settings for the WRE54G: actually exact same settings as your Wireless Router's. 8. Change the WRE54G password while you are at it! Save settings and that's it! Finally unplug the WRE54G from power outlet AND LAN connection to the computer used to set up the Extender; locate/power up the WRE54G somewhere appropriatly a bit away from the laptop, in range of the Wireless Router, and in sight from the wireless laptop for initial testing (just so you can actually see if the blue lights come on: they should in the following sequence - top blue > top red/bottom blue > both blue if everything is OK.) To initially test-drive everything, I placed the WRE54g about 30ft from the Wireless Router and 20ft from the wireless laptop (which I make sure still connects to the Wireless Router.) 9. Now re-enable the wireless connection on the computer used to set up the WRE54G. Experiment with the new connection with the WRE54G. It should kick in as the stronger connection right away (if you are CLOSER to the WRE54G then the router). You'll see that when you are connecting to/using the WRE54G to connect to your Wireless Router, the signal strength is indeed higher. In fact, if you can run NetStumbler (free wireless detection software) and thus run a Site Survey, you'll see that two APs show up, same network SSID (i.e. the Wireless Router and the WRE54G, now considered as an AP itself). Of course the WRE54G will show much stronger signals. 10. Then if all is OK, experiment with placing the WRE54G as suggested otherwise - i.e. at the periphery of the wireless range obtained by just using the Wireless Router. 11. Seems to work so far. I do not otherwise detect loss of signal or b'band speed. This thing does work. I have placed the WRE54G in many different locations and I am truly AMAZED at its range extension potential. NOTE: I assume that in case of presence of signals from BOTH the Wireless Router and the WRE54G at a given location (since both devices are on same channel/SSID/Protection scheme), one might have to reset the wireless connection on the remote(s) laptops (or to reboot) to allow it(them) to pick just one (the stronger of course) connection. I was looking all along for a way to set up the WRE54G without having to go thru the rigamarole of changing other settings elsewhere on the network, using the dreaded Install CD or other cumbersome procedure! As I change my encryption WPA code often, I'll just have to change that info in one more device (besides my WRT54G and the Linksys wireless bridge WET54G - another excellent, not cheap Linksys product which i recommend also and which I use to make my Sat internet service available to another building on my business premises). Simple enough however! Note: you can also use that device to allow a web access to a computer that does not have a wireless card: plug the WRE54G into elect outlet, make sure that the unit is in range of the wireless network, connect a LAN cable from the WRE54G to the card-less computer, and voila, ths computer can get online. **************************************** Hoping this helps! - Roger T

  • This thing is not working!! i need help please!!!

    i picked up a ipod nano today figureing that its a pretty good mp3 player for my needs... i get home turn the thing on mess with it for a few mins turn it off plug it in to charge and it still turns on and off so im figureing okay cool ill install my drivers and itunes and start building my playlist well the first issue i get is itunes will not start up it just flat out refuses... to start up i have no idea why the updater worked fine for what i installed off the disk which told me everything was up to date as always i went to apple.com the website to make sure drivers arethe correct ones found out they are not...GREAT!!!.. so i delete the old drivers and install the new ones then i go to update my ipod nano and it says "sorry device notfound" mean while my ipods frozen giveing me the no disconnect symbol it wont even disconnect when i turn off the usb device then it gave me the battery charge warning light then turned right off after freaking out. i then spent a little while redoing my itunes and ipod updaters to where there is no application issues. i kept checking my ipod to see if it was chargeing theres no indicator whats so ever when the ipod nano is turned off of it getting charged like my moms old ipod 20 gig and shes had that thing forever without any issues at all. meanwhile my ipod is a metal electronic light paper weight right now.. if this thing doesn't work when i get up in the afternoon tomorrow form it being connected to a AC adapter like apple says it should work im takeing it back and gonna drop the extra 100 on the 30gig that i know shouldn't have any issues... cause **** this *****!!!
    if any of you can tell me how to get my ipod nano to turn on that would be great let alone how i can get it to update and then export songs to the thing

    Hi,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    the
    first issue i get is itunes will not start up it just
    flat out refuses... to start up i have no idea why
    You might want to ask for help in the iTunes for Windows Forum
    the updater worked fine for what i installed off the
    disk which told me everything was up to date as
    always i went to apple.com the website to make sure
    drivers arethe correct ones found out they are
    not...GREAT!!!.. so i delete the old drivers and
    install the new ones
    Sorry, I'm on a Mac so I'm not sure what "drivers" you are referring to.
    You need iTunes and the latest version is 6.0.2.
    You also want the version 1.1 software for the nano.
    Both are available for free from www.apple.com
    then i go to update my ipod nano
    and it says "sorry device notfound" mean while my
    ipods frozen giveing me the no disconnect symbol it
    wont even disconnect when i turn off the usb device
    then it gave me the battery charge warning light then
    turned right off after freaking out.
    Here is a link that may help with the above:
    Symptom
    One or more of the following occurs:
    iPod does not show up in iTunes or as disk in Windows Explorer
    iPod does not show up as disk in Windows Explorer (even though disk mode is enabled on the iPod)
    iTunes and Windows Explorer report the wrong amount of available space on iPod
    No songs appear on the iPod after an apparently successful update from iTunes
    Music copied to mapped network drive instead of iPod
    Then read this link:
    Strange iPod behavior when Windows confuses iPod with network drive
    There's also this:
    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    i then spent a
    little while redoing my itunes and ipod updaters to
    where there is no application issues. i kept checking
    my ipod to see if it was chargeing theres no
    indicator whats so ever when the ipod nano is turned
    off of it getting charged like my moms old ipod 20
    gig and shes had that thing forever without any
    issues at all.
    If the nano is charging when it is turned on there is a small icon in the top right of the screen. If it is turned off the icon is large and uses all the screen.
    iPod: About the battery charge status icon
    Another link (sorry to give you so much reading to do):
    iPod's battery doesn't charge
    meanwhile my ipod is a metal
    electronic light paper weight right now.. if this
    thing doesn't work when i get up in the afternoon
    tomorrow form it being connected to a AC adapter like
    apple says it should work im takeing it back and
    gonna drop the extra 100 on the 30gig that i know
    shouldn't have any issues... cause **** this
    if any of you can tell me how to get my ipod nano to
    turn on that would be great let alone how i can get
    it to update and then export songs to the thing
    Hope some of those help.

    I have windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 on an HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC Processer is AMD A8-3500M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics 1.5 GHz
    Intstalled memory (RAM) 8.00 GB (7.48 GB usable)
    64-bit Operating System
    I have tried disabling the Catalyst A.I. and restaring PS.  The video card is AMD Radeon (TM) HD 6620G. 
    Nothing I do seems to work.  I can see the 3D menu it's all grayed out and when in the 3D tab under layes, if I try to create a 3D object this is the message I get. "The 3D features require that "Use Graphics Process" is enabled in the Performace preferences. Your video card must meet the minimum requirements and you may need to check that your driver is working correctly.
    I've also done all this, the graphics processer is on, the driver is up to date and says that it is working properly.  Anyone got any suggestions what else I can do?

    Curt, the only way I see catalyst is when I'm in the advance setting for (I guess the viedo card) I see info for gaming, video, display, & more.  All that it will let me do is turn it off or on and I'm really not sure what I need to do to update that driver.  Normally, I just run a window check to be sure the drivers are up to date but I don't know where to look for the driver to even see about updating it.  If you are able to help, I would really appreciate it.  I think I spent about 2 hours yesterday trying to do everything I could think of to fix it.... and I really want to be able to start playing with creating 3d graphics. Also, I just looked up the driver you are talking about, based on the info you are seeing that I posted, do I need to download Catalyst Software Suite
    that includes:
                                 Display Driver ver. 13.152   
                                 OpenCL(tm) Driver ver. 10.0.1268.1
                                   Catalyst Control Center ver. 2013.0830.1943.3358

  • Ipod not working!!! NEED HELP!!!

    my ipod keeps displaying the message "www.apple/support/ipod.com", it wont load up, my computer cant detect it and just before this happened, it started skipping through every song without playing anything. Has anyone else had a problem like this? if so, what should i do? thank you for your help.
    Cheers,
    Sam

    You Might want to try the FIVE R's and call Ipod Support...anyways goodluck!! and try frocing the ipod into disk mode to restore it back to normal! good luck and post back if this works
    Open the iPod Software Updater application. It can be found by clicking on the Start menu, pointing to All Programs (Windows XP) or Programs (Windows 2000), and then point to iPod.
    Select the iPod Updater showing the most recent date in the filename.
    Connect your iPod to your Windows PC.
    When it becomes available, click Restore. An alert box appears to confirm you want to restore iPod.
    A progress bar appears on the computer screen.
    When the restore process on the computer has finished, close the iPod Updater and look at the screen on the iPod.
    If you see an image of a wall power plug, connect your iPod to the AC adapter that came with it and plug it into a wall outlet and wait for the restore to complete.
    If you see a progress bar underneath the Apple logo, leave the iPod connected to the computer.
    If you had to put iPod into Disk Mode before restoring, the iPod screen may display "OK to Disconnect" and you may need to reset iPod.
    After the restore is complete and the iPod is connected to the computer, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear asking you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences similar to when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    Before manually placing the iPod into Disk Mode you should verify that it has a charge, if not you need to either charge iPod before continuing or connect it to power. You can either connect it to a high-powered USB port, or plug the iPod Power Adapter into an electrical outlet and connect iPod to the power adapter.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least 6 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Disconnect iPod from the power adapter and connect it to your computer; the screen on the iPod will change and say "Do not disconnect"
    If you are having difficulty putting an iPod model with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode, set the iPod on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center.
    If you are still unable to put your iPod with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.
