Disconnected when it said "Do Not Disconnect"
I disconnected my iPod while it said "Do Not Disconnect" (I know, it was stupid of me, but I have my reasons)
In anycase I'm now suffering the consequences.
Instead of playing the tracks, my 20GB iPod frantically scrolls through all 3000+ songs on my iPod
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME FIX THIS?????????????????
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
Try to restore the iPod and resync your songs.

By mistake I disconnected my iPod (5th generation) when it said Do not disconnect. Now it doesn't appear in iTunes, but it does appear on my desktop. How can I get to reappear in iTunes? I have tried resetting and rebooting. And my iTunes is up to date on my macbook pro, mountain lion, OS X 10.8.
Thank you!The iPod's filesystem may be corrupted. This may seem like overkill, but it has been known to help many others in the same boat. Try doing a low level reformat of the iPod's hard disk using the instructions in this article.

I disconnected my nano from my computer when it stated "do not disconnect" and now my ipod is frozen. it shows that the hold button is on and that it is now playing a song and the back light remains on. If I try to reconnect to my computer, itunes does not find the nano nor does my computer. I tired to restart but nothing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hello littlemomo,
Use this:
Apple - Support - iPod Troubleshooting Assistant
Use the reset and restore options. This should fix your issue. If not:
Call 1800 MY APPLE or go here:

What does it mean when it said SIM not provisioned , my iPad 3 is not connect with wifi
What does it mean when it said SIM is not provisioned , my ipad3 is not connect to wifi , Please help
Does your iPad 3 have a SIM slot?
Does it have a SIM in it?
Has your SIM been activated by a cellular carrier?
It sounds as if your iPad, which as you say is not connected to WiFi, is trying to connect to the internet but failing. -
I disconnected when it said "Do Not Disconnect"...
and now my iPod is dead.
I was updating my iPod from my iMac, when my iMac suddenly had a kernel panic. The kernel panic happened a few times earlier so I decided to see what was wrong and open up my iMac. This meant I had to disconnect my iPod while the "Do Not Disconnect" sign was still flashing. Now it's dead as a dead duck. I did the five Rs several times; nothing worked. All it does is flash a sad iPod. Can anyone help? How can I restore my iPod?
Thanks.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

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. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. BTW, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
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.
But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website. -

Ipod touch 1G (3.1.3): notes problems+disconnects when i check 'sync notes'
Hi everyone, I got this ipod touch 1G and recently upgraded it to the 3.1.3 firmware. Lovely update to the clock and the calculator, but it screwed my notes!
First thing i noticed was that I couldn't open many of my notes; it returns to the home screen when u tap on a note. The notes that could open, opened up to the wrong note! (select note A: note B opens up!)
second thing i noticed was that I could no longer WRITE any notes. This is a major problem for me. New notes just don't get written and i am ejected to the home screen again.
3rd thing: cannot delete existing notes.
4th when i check 'sync notes' in itunes(9.0.8), it just refuses to sync when it reaches notes, saying that "itunes could not sync notes to the ipod because the ipod disconnected"
Have tried:
Restarting itunes +doing hard restart on ipod touch. <fixed the sync notes option unchecking itself.
Any help will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance!I have the exact same problem.
Would really appreciate if anyone could help me get access to my notes again.
Please and thank you -
Disconnecting when computer sleeps- will not reconnect
My grandfathers MacBook disconnects from wireless network whenever the computer goes to sleep/is temporarily shut. When it is opened back up, says it is not connected to the internet even though the Network is reading as working. Mail will not send either. The only way I can get it back in gear is running the Network diagnostics or simply restarting the computer.
Please Help.
OH- "Disconnect from wireless network when logged out" is NOT checked in system preferencesHello candace171. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
If he's using Preferred Networks, try the following ...
1. Delete Preferred Network(s)
o System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Configure
o In the "By default, join:" pull-down menu, select "Preferred networks"
o Delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list
2. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
o Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
o Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
o Restart, or log out then back in.
3. Add Preferred Network(s)
o System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Configure
o In the "By default, join:" pull-down menu, select "Preferred networks"
o Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
o Restart or log out then back in. -
iTunes told me to delete my backup folder when I was having problems syncing my phone to my computer. After that it wouldn't work at all. After trying and trying I deleted iTunes when it said "iTunes could not back up iPhone because the backup could not be saved on the computer"and now it wont let me install it again and keeps saying "itunes cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet ". What the **** itunes? Nothing is working!!
I wanted to update my iTunes so I could sync my phone to my computer and update my phones software so I can use the latest apps that need a 4.2 or higher.
This is not fun for me so if anyone knows what I can do to fix this please help. Is it possible to download the "cabinent file" with the lastest iTunes?
Thank you.
-Kait
My phone is the iPhone4 and my computer is a Windows VistaI doubt that corrupt files are the problem. It is more likely a space or permissions issue. Is the hard-drive on which iTunes is stored close to capacity? Do you (or the particular user profile you have logged on with) have the requisite permissions to save to that drive?
Otherwise, do you get an error code? This might point us in the right direction. -
My other apple store ID ([email protected]) password is not working, so I tried to send a message to my Yahoo email (ID) the new password, so when it said that a massage was send to my email, but when I login to my yahoo email, I didn’t receive any email from apple
You can send over WiFi, but it sounds as if you need to setup your Gmail account, or did you do this already?

hi,
i have problem when installing itune. it said:
Could not open key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE32\SOFTWARE|Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
Please help me i can't do anything without ituneFor "Could not open key/write value" errors when reinstalling try b noir's user tip:
"Could not open key: UNKNOWN\Components\[LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]\
[LongStringOfLettersAndNumbers]" error messages when installing iTunes for Windows.
The technique can be applied to the branch of the registry mentioned in the error message.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Toshiba recovery, shuts down after disc 1 deleting files. then when i start it said OS not found.
hello to all, i have a problem with my Toshiba A305D-S6848, it's my first time to recover this laptop then, idk what to click.. at first when i insert the disc 1, then started the laptop and an option pop out i selected the 2nd option and it says deleting all of the stuff in my hard drive, then after a few hours when it's finish it said , its done deleting and the cd open up and the laptop was shut down by himself, then i wait if it's going to restart but it didn't . when i start it the toshiba loads and then a while it said "OS not found" what should i do? i don't even use my second disc? and when i start it again to do the step again it just show a black screen with this one "_" and it shutdown help me..
Satellite A305D-S6848
after you recovered your laptop what mostly program or softwares do you install??
I would get rid of all the trial software. See the spec above. I would replace Norton 360 with Microsoft's Security Essentials.
The only application I feel is essential is a full-system backup. The following three are good.
Norton Ghost
Acronis Trueimage
Storagecraft Shadowprotect

Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions

Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software. -
my kids entered the passcode several times wrong and now it is disabled and written on it"connect to itunes" , when i did connect it to itunes it said "can not connect to ipad because it is locked with a passcode" what can i do pls?
You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. -
My iphone5 freezes my iTunes v11 when connected and I cannot sync or do anything. I have reinstalled iTunes, tried different USB ports, ran diagnostics and said phone not recognised. Please help as have wasted nearly a day and a half trying to sort and at wits end!
