Do not disconnect message wont go away

I have the do not disconnect message on my ipod when plugged into my comuter (windows XP). However, the computer says the update is complete. I have reset the ipod several times. Still get the message and when I try and disconnect (by clicking on the ipod icon) it says cannot disconnect because some files on the ipod are in use by other applications or something. Pls help.

Hi,
I have been suffering from the same problem, in that I continue to receive a 'do not disconnect' warning on the iPod (4gb nano). iTunes will not eject, nor will windows (as per apple disconnect instructions http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61135).
I have found that MacAfee is the culprit in my case. I am using Virus Scan 10.0 and it seems to keep open handles on files in my iPod drive (although I don't use that functionality).
To release the iPod I have to briefly disable the virus scanner:
* Right click on the MacAfee security center icon in the system tray
* Choose VirusScan -> Disable
* After a few second the Do not disconnect disappears from the iPod
* Right click on the MacAfee security center icon in the system tray
* Choose VirusScan -> Enable
I think that MacAfee & Apple need to collaborate to remove this bug.
Good luck and I hope this works for you.

Advertizment wont go away

The January upgrade ad wont go away for my iPod touch. Ive tried the "No Thanks" "Purchase" and "Remind me Later"
All cause this error: The iTunes store could not process your request, please try again later.
I am always connected to internet, and Ive tried behind a router and without one. My firewall is set to allow iTunes communications.
What is goin on?! its really annoying

Have you tried this?:
-- Try toggling the Hold switch. Flip the "Hold" switch on your iPod (located on the top) back and forth several times.
If a "regular toggling" doesn't seem to do anything, try this:
1 - Connect your iPod to your computer.
2 - Now begin to rapidly toggle the "Hold" switch back and forth while your iPod is connected.
3 - After you've done that for a little bit, eject the iPod if needed, then disconnect it from your computer.

Ebilling error wont go away

For some reason the register for ebilling wont go away, I am already registered for it and its coming up with the following error: Sorry we can't find any My BT accounts with that username that need to be activated
I've been having so many problems and its all getting too much now.
I've sent an email in detailing everything, I just hope someone can fix this as someone else using my email address etc to get service is not right, true?
Anyway if you can let me know what I can do re the error. Thanks

When I sign in to BT.com it comes up telling me to activate ebilling... I've been on ebilling for months & months, when I click on "activate" it comes up with the following error and wont let me get rid of the activation screen...
So I cant see Bills/Paymens, Broadband usage, nothing at all. I just keeps saying to activate ebilling..
BT are confused as well as the email address I am entering is my registered email address, its showing me logged in to my account but I cant see beyond the error screen telling me to activate ebilling.
I'm waiting on it being looked into by technicians.

Continuous "Do Not Disconnect" sign.

Hey, I hope you can help. Whenever I connect the cable to the iPod a "do not disconnect" sign appears. It goes on for hours. I'm using Windows Media Player to sync songs because iTunes wouldn't connect with my iPod since it told me to reinstall it and still nothing worked (and the iPod is recognized as My Ipod (F:) in Windows Media Player) and once the sync is complete, the "Do not disconnect" sign is still intact. When I remove the cable (thinking it's just a fluke) none of my songs appear. Please help!

This is a problem that I personally have and in digging around these message boards a lot of other people have aswell.
Do some searches for iPod not disconnecting that brings up a lot of messages, but glad somebody has actually started a thread for this. The usual answers everybody gives (and I think these are generally MAC users) is update the iPod software using iPod Updater, re-install iTunes, update all of your windows drivers.......I have tried all three to no avail. But maybe you'll get lucky.
iPod is designed to work with iTunes only - Media Player just transfers songs to the iPod's hardrive, which means that you can easily pull them off again, but the iPod can't actually play them - useful huh.....
I haven't had any problems with my iPod connecting to iTunes, it's the disconnect thing that bugs me, because it also causes my PC to crash - not in midrun, but it won't allow my PC to actually shutdown - I have to pull the power cord.
This is not always the case - if I dock my iPod without iTunes open, then it opens iTunes, updates and disconnects, no problems and windows shuts down just fine. If iTunes is already open or after automatically updating, I manually update again then the do not disconnect logo appears and will not go away. Everywhere I have read indicates that as long as the iPod is not physically updating (the little circle top left corner of your iPod or the red flashing icon in iTunes) then just pull it out and there will be no problem. It seems to work for me, but thats not the point though is it. When you spend $300 plus accessories you expect it to work with all platforms as promised. I am a little dissapointed as my PC is 3 months brand new out of the box and as far as i can tell I have updated every driver/chipset possible......
Anybody else with any good ideas.......I run Windows XP Media Center. XP's fine but the Media Center is crappy.

Little sick ipod icon wont go away

hey all,
my ipod screen displays the little sick ipod picture. iv tried, recharging in, reseting it, restoring it... everything but the picture still remains. My first ipod I sent away because it froze, this is the replacement one they send me and the 90 day warranty expires a few days ago. any tips?

1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) will conquer most iPod issues.
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Still can't see your iPod?
Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check each one starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
7. Try to connect on a different computer i.e. a PC formatted iPod connect with a Mac computer or Mac formatted iPod with a Window base PC.
8. Try to do a Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a reformat with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer).
9. Try to run the iPod in “Diagnostic mode” . which can be accessed by pushing the “hold” switch into the “on” position and then “off” (into the original position). Then press the following buttons in the following order: “menu” plus “select” (centre button) then press “reverse” plus “select”. This will take you to the hidden diagnostic mode screen menu. It may take a few trials and pressing the buttons in the right way for this to work, so be patient and keep trying if you have to. The diagnostic mode will give you 7 choices which are: Memory, IO, Power, Status, SysCfg, Diskmode, and Reset. Don’t bother trying “reset” because in my case it didn’t work it just took me back to the same problem. Instead, choose “diskmode”, after which you should get an odd looking “ok to disconnect” sign on the iPod screen.
If one of the above step helps to get your iPod to be recognized with your computer, do a Restore.

Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar, tap & hold any icon until they all start to wiggle, tap the red minus sign & close every app listed, tap home button when finished. Then reset your phone:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support. Get your lock button fixed then you can restore your phone.

My ipod touch 4g is turning up or down by itself, and the speaker icon wont go away

Okay this first started yesterdy morning, when my ipod touch4g was acting funny it wouldnt turn off, so i thought if i plugged it in it would fix itself, so i thought restoring would help it,made it worse it started turning off and on apple logo came on a few times, now i got it where i can turn it off and on okay but now i cant seem to controle the volume, and the speaker icon is showing and wont go away, and when i try turning it down when i play a song or a video, it will turn back up by itself, or it will turn down by itself,
what would be the best way to fix this without taking it in? the nearest apple store is dallas and i dont wanna spend all the money in gas to go up there, and then see what arm and leg i gotta cut off to get them to fix it.
should i restore and resync it one more time or should i start saving for a new ipod along with the new computer im needing?

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: 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. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

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

My i pod shows my charger and itunes so i download i tunes. But itunes said i had to do my passcode but the charger and itunes symbol wont go away long enough for me to enter my passcode! what do i do?

My ipod shows my charger and itunes, so i download itunes. But then itunes says i musst enter my passcode on my i pod but the charger and itunes symbols wont go away long enough for me to enter my passcode. what should i do?

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
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.
