Does the iPod need to go back to Apple or am I missing something?

My friend has an iPod mini that she uses with her windows computer. It was working fine and then it wouldn't turn on. It wouldn't mount on the computer so I plugged it into the A/C adapter and it didn't charge. When I used the menu/select the Apple logo comes up then blinks off after a few seconds. I tried to put it into disk mode and that didn't work either. I even plugged it into my mac to no avale. Is their anything left to try before calling apple?
Thanks

See these.
iPod won't turn on.
iPod battery doesn't charge.
Your Windows PC doesn't recognize the iPod is connected.
iPod only shows an Apple logo and doesn't start up.
After that, if nothing helps, it's probably time for service.

  • Using the Alarm clock -- does the ipod need to be on the charger?

    Does the ipod (touch 4g) have to be on the charger in order for the alarm clock to work?
    Or does the ipod "awake" from the off position and sound the alarm?

    The alarm will work if the iPod is asleep (screen goes black automatically after set period of inactivity or you momentarily press the power button and you have to slide to unlock). However, if you power it off (hold power until power off slider appears and you slide it) it will not alarm.

  • Does the iPod need the Pod driver to work with XP and any iPod

    I want to load iTunes 6 on 120 XP workstations. The problem tho is that I do not want my users to connect up their personal iPods to the company's computers. The purpose is so that they can gain access to the iTunes music store expressly for work purposes.
    If I continue down this road and install ONLY iTunes 6, if a user connects their iPod will it communicate with their iPod?
    Disabling the USB ports is not an option as I have other permitted USB devices such as mice and keyboards.
    Thanks....

    You could try to disable the "iPodService" (and perhaps the "iTunesHelper" as well) on these machines. The iPod would still function as an external hard drive, as hudgie pointed out, but iTunes should not be able to upload music to the iPod anymore.
    Just give it a try.

  • Does the ipod touch itself need wifi in order to use find my iphone??

    My ipod touch 4g got stolen and i have find my iphone turned on but my question is does the ipod itself need wifi to track it down??  I've tried so many times i played sound, i have a passcode lock on it, i even sent a message to my ipod... But i try to locate it, it says it's offline.it down?? if so there's no way to point to try to find it Right??

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • Does the iPod Shuffle (2nd Gen) need to be fully charged...

    Does the iPod Shuffle (2nd gen) need to be fully charged (green light) to appear in my iTunes. I just bought one on eBay... not sure if it works. It's plugged into the USB port and the light is orange (solid, not blinking).
    Should I expect it to turn green before it will show up as a Device in my iTunes?

    So, the issue on this one was that I was not plugged directly into my computer - I was using a usb hub. Once I removed the hub and put the ipod shuffle (2nd G) directly into my hard drive it opened up iTunes and I was able to synch. It never did show a green light, until I unplugged it and put the ear buds in, turned on the "on" switch and there was a green light. I hope this helps someone else.

  • Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

    I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

    Hello Ian,
    Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
    Thanks - Genevieve

    Try to reboot it. Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple, about 20 seconds or so. It should reboot and work for you.

    They are charged via your computer's USB port. As long as you have a USB charger it will work with the Touch.

  • Does the SCOM 2012 agent "look back" in the logs before the service was started?

    Does the SCOM 2012 agent "look back" in the logs before the service was started?<o:p></o:p>
    We raised this question to our Microsoft rep back when we migrated to SCOM 2007. We wanted to know if SCOM would alert on errors generated before the Heath Service started. For example, errors
    logged before the service is started on reboot (which is when some critical errors are logged). We also wondered what happens when the service is restarted...would errors during the same window be missed?
    If I remember correctly the MS response was that the agent looks back on startup/restart based on a timestamp of some kind. We did some testing that seemed to confirm this information. I've
    recently encountered several instances of errors generated while the service was stopped (primarily during boot up) where SCOM failed to alert on the error.
    Can anyone confirm how the SCOM 2012 agent deals with errors generated before the service starts on boot and during service restarts?

    I would suspect it's with watermarks as it has been in the past.  What you should look into is if these alerts you were expecting are event based, and if there are rules set to alert for these conditions.  If so, and you don't get an alert,
    then you can bring that up with your msft rep.  However, they should be caught.
    Regards, Blake Email: mengotto<at>hotmail.com Blog: http://discussitnow.wordpress.com/ If my response was helpful, please mark it as so, if it answered your question, then please also mark it accordingly. Thank you.
    There is a watermark. If the agent has been down for a significant period of time, the watermark may not apply, as the log would have rolled - but the entire log will still be processed regardless of what has already been discarded in the log. This may cause
    some problems if a monitor picks up an unhealthy state, and the healthy state log entry has already been flushed. In this case, you need to reset health on that particular monitor, or just flush the cache on the agent to start anew.
