    The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

  • Just downloaded Lion and now iMovie won't respond when I try to open it. Even tried deleting the program (since it was an older version) and bought it new from the app store, but still won't respond.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • I dropped my iPod, now it won't get out of recovery mode!

    I dropped my iPod, now it won't get out of recovery mode! If i don't connect it to the mac, it has the msg in 4 languages saying "connect to your computer. Use iTunes to restore". When i connect it to mac, and itunes is open, it says ipod needs to be restored, so i press the restore button, the progress bar starts moving but never finishes, like it's frozen.
    Can anyone help

    guess there's no one that can help.

  • HP8610 Touchscreen Won't Respond - Wireless Light is On

    The touchscreen on my 8610 is frozen.  Discovered this when I tried to make a photocopy and the icon on the touchscreen wouldn't respond.  I can still print wirelessly from my Macbook with no problem.  The blue wireless light on the printer is on.  I've been printing wirelessly, scanning, and copying for 6-months with no issue.  Any help is appreciated.

    Makes no difference.  I unpluygged the printer, let it sit for 10+ minutes,  plugged it directly into a wall socket, then turned it off/on using the power button on the printer.  Still the same ... the wireless light is on, the touchscreen won't respond, but I can still print wirelessly from my computer.

  • TS1372 I replaced the hard drive, motherboard, and battery but now can not restore my Ipod 5th gen?  Error code 1416, any help?

    I replaced the hard drive, motherboard, and battery but now can not restore my Ipod 5th gen?  Error code 1416, any help?

    When I did a Google search on "1416 error ipod 5th," there is some discussion that the earlier version of the logic board only accepted 30 and 60 GB drives (or words to that effect), but the later "5.5" version did allow larger capacity drives.  If that info is true, the question is, do you have a compatible combination of logic board and hard drive?

  • 5th Gen iPod Classic won't play video

    I've been having a problem getting my 5th gen. iPod to play video podcasts. I'm using iTunes 9.2.1 and os 10.6.4. For about a month or so now my iPod will play a couple videos and then it just stops playing them. It usually finishes playing but then goes to black screen before the next video starts. If I click the pause button the battery indicator shows up at the top and three podcast titles quickly display and then disappear, and then the screen returns to the menu. From that point it won't play any video podcasts; until I resync the iPod then it will play three of four video and quit again until it's resync'd. Even after it stops playing videos it will still play audio podcasts without interruption.
    I've tried restoring my iPod, but I get the same behavior after the restore.

    I have an 80 classic and i started getting new movies and tv shows and my ipod stoped playing movie files. The time i experienced this was May 22, 2009. I loaded the free episode of the Glee Club offered by itunes. Did you ever find out how to fix that. Someone PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

  • IPhone 5 touchscreen won't respond until lock button is pressed.

    Got a wierd problem.  I replaced a cracked display in my wife's iPhone 5 and now the touchscreen is having issues.  It happens like this:
    1. Hit the home button, lock/unlock button or a call comes in
    2. touchscreen doesn't respond
    3. hit the lock/unlock button to lock the phone
    4. hit home button or lock/unlock again
    5. touchscreen works perfectly now
    Happens every single time.  With or without case.  I was wondering if it might be a grounding issue, but not sure how to fix it.  What's the deal?

    Bummer.  Try asking at http://www.ifixit.com or some place similar.
    The iPhone is not considered user servicable. Apple does not sell iPhone parts. There are no legitimate sources for iPhone parts.
    Now that you opened it yourself, Apple won't touch it in or out of warranty.

  • Brand New 5th Gen iPod Touch Won't Connect to Wifi

    I just got a brand new 5th gen iPod Touch and expected to have a fun night of playing with it, but instead I was trying to figure out why it won't connect to my network. Not a good introduction to a product.
    Here is the related info and troubleshooting steps I've already tried:
    - It will not connect to my wifi network
    - The iPod Touch says "Unable to join the network [network name]" when I try to connect to my network (as opposed to "Could not find the network [network name]" when it is not the correct network name)
    - I was able to connect to a random unsecure network nearby
    - Of course I power cycled my router and modem to reset them
    - My wireless router does not broadcast its SSID; I made it broadcast it and it still didn't connect
    - My network is password protected. I tried changing the security type, as well as turning the password off altogether, but nothing worked
    - My wireless router is a Netgear WGT624 v3
    - Even though it's brand new, I tried resetting the iPod Touch and the network settings
    Does anyone have any tips or solutions for this?
    I wasn't able to find other people with this problem, at least not with solutions that I haven't tried. It's really frustrating not being able to connect to the internet with my new device.
    I will point out that my Android phone connected to my wifi network on the first try with no problems.
    Thanks

  • Dropped iPhone and now it won't turn on??? :(

          Dropped my iPhone 3GS and now it won't turn on. I didn't even drop it that far or anything but now for some reason it won't turn on. I've already tried resetting it several times and it hasn't worked. I plugged it in to charge it and nothing happened and when i plug it in the computer with the dock, nothing happens and it won't even show up under devices in iTunes.
    Please help.

    I believe the correct technical term is... "you broke it".
    Take it in for service. An out of warranty replacement from Apple is US$149.

  • IPod 5th Gen (Late 2006) won't turn on

    My iPod 5th Gen (Late 2006) will not turn on. When I plug it into the wall charger it WILL turn on however nothing appears on the screen. The screen will constantly stay lit and will eventually turn a light shade of pink. It will NOT turn on and register with iTunes when I plug into a computer though. Could this be a battery issue? or something else?

    What do you mean by service warranty? the Apple warraty does not cover liquid damage.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for the 16 GB one and $149 for the others. They do not fix yours.

  • 5th Gen. Ipod won't restore. ???

    I have a 5th Gen. Ipod. I have plugged it in and I have clicked RESTORE IPOD. It looks like it is doing the job, then......when it is all done...the Ipod says, "Connect to Computer to Restore" (It is already connected). Then the computer still shows the option to restore the Ipod. It will not allow me to do anything else.
    What I have done so far
    push and hold center button and menu button and wait for "apple" to appear.....it does...then shows.."Connect to computer to Restore" ...so then I do the following
    Restore on ITUNES
    Plug it in -charge it completly
    Pray for it
    Stare hard at it
    Still scratching my head.

    Did you try a hard reset with the iPod still connected to your PC?  Have you tried multiple USB ports, preferably high powered USB 2.0 ports?
    To do a hard reset, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Have you also worked through each and every single troubleshooting suggestion in this Apple support document?

  • Older 5th Gen IPOD Classic Games not syncing - HELP

    I previously had a IPod Classic 30GB and purchased 2 games (Ms PacMan & Mahjong) these worked well on that IPod. I now have a new IPOD Classic 120GB and I have purchased 2 more games (UNO and Scrabble).
    All games display in Itunes game although they are displayed on two different lines, but only the two new games (UNO and Scrabble) appear in the Games Sync area.
    How do I get the original two games (Ms PacMan & Mahjong) to sync to these new IPod Classic?

    Are those older games still available in the iTunes Store +iPod Click-Wheel Games+ section? If they are currently being sold, that current version is certain to be compatible with all game-playing click-wheel iPods.
    If so, you may want to try sending an email to the iTunes Store support team. If you go here
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/
    and follow one of the links under +Customer Service+, such as +Transfer Purchases+, and you will see a link that says +Contact Us+. Follow that link to a form you can fill out to send the email message. Explain the situation and ask if there is a way to get the newest version of those games you already paid for previously, when you had a 5th gen iPod.
