Freeze while updating after retoring, resetting, charging etc etc

itunes didn't recognize ipod and !folder showed on ipod screen. After charging, resetting, & restoring, I got a disk insertion message. I erased disk and could then import songs to ipod and play songs, but as ipod was mid update of itunes library it froze. Continues to freeze on random songs even updating manually. Did I miss a step? Or does my ipod need work?

You know,
I'm on my second ipod now. I purchased my last one in late December of 2004. By March, Apple had to replace that one. Now, the replacement that they had sent me is freezing to the point of not functioning. 1 year is PATHETIC for a $300 dollar product. However, I NEED an mp3 player. I couldn't live without one. Am I going to buy another ipod...I don't know. I can understand the battery needing to be replaced, but total failure within such a short period of time is atrocious! When I contacted Apple, I was told that there is nothing that can be done, and that, next time, I should buy the AppleCare. So, for $60 more, I'll have my purchased replaced for 2 years. Because it sure won't last that long. That is not acceptible!

Ipad 2 freeze while updating OS2

My Ipad2 2G (64Gb) freezed while updating OS5 yesterday, without finishing updated to OS5, the USB cable was unplugged to the PC itunes. Now ipad2 freezes with ipod logo on the middle of screen. If Ipad2 is plugged again with ITunes, iTunes can not identify Ipad2 with message "iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occurerd (OXE8000065).
How should it be solved? How to stop the freeze and restart Ipad2?

I found the way already, just push start button and home bottom simultanuously and hold for 10 seconds, than Ipad will shut down. After that, push start button to start up back to the system. It works.

while updating, after submission of rescue email next button is not taking next step. what should I do?

Not to come across as rude, but no one has any suggestions because the post is very long with lots of detail - and it is not a technical question.
What should you do? Call the store, call AppleCare, call Apple Customer Relations, but no one here could possibly do anything to spur on either the Apple Store or Best Buy.

Computer freezes while updating security.

Hello again. My computer's problems have only intensified. Originally my computer would only freeze while multi-tasking or under heavy graphic stress. Now, the computer freezes while preforming mundane tasks such as moving a window. It's branched into other problems.
I cannot complete the download of the new security update. My computer freezes mid-download, regardless if I'm doing anything else or not.
My computer is even freezing while loading itself up. I have been told previously that my computer has a video-card issue and that the card was integrated into the computer. Now, I'm not so sure that is the problem. These freezes and glitches started some time after I performed a virus and spyware scan. I think that the scan may have corrupted a file during it's search.
Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem. It was finished with the update and when I pressed the restart button, it was ready to restart, then I got the blue screen with that loading image that goes round in a circle. I waited like 5-10 min and by the time that happened the screen was blank, but it still made noise that the computer was still running. So I did the cold shut down and restarted it.

Software updates after master reset?

Hi there,
I am about to use the original disc to reset my Mac Book to the original factory settings. Given that I purchased my Mac Book earlier this year and I have been done more than 10 software updates since purchase. My question is, after I reset my Mac Book, how do I repeat all the updates or do I simply need to do so?
Thanks for your time.
DC boy

Hello
After the reinstall, just click your blue apple and choose "software update". You have to have an internet connection of course... Your computer will be checked to see what updates are available. If it has been awhile, you will most likely have several downloads. They will be presented with titles and descriptions of the updates. Select the ones you want and download them!
And you are current!
hope that helps

IOS 6 freezing while updating.

While updating my ipod touch to the iOS 6, it went to the start up screen and the loading bar was stuck at half way and it froze for about an hour and did not move. I restarted my ipod and put it on my dock and took it off and restarted it multiple times and it goes to either a blue, white, black, or a dark screen with a faint apple icon. I need help to get my ipod back on or how to restore it, because the computer does not recognize that my ipod is connected and I do not know what to do from here. Please help!

My daughter got her iPod Touch 4th Gen stuck early Saturday morning while trying to update to IOS 6. Thanks to a post by you, I was able to get it out of the white screen and updated via restore function in iTunes. It tried to fight me though. When I got the iTunes logo with USB arrow, all was going well with restore until while the IOS 6 file was downloading, the iPod's screen went back to white. iTunes continued to download the update file (850 MB). I had to unplug and let the battery die again. I plugged it back in to get the Apple logo to come back on the screen. Note: I had to be paying attention when it appeared because it didn't give me long to go through the instructions in your post. I missed it once and I had to start over. What I had to do was hold the power and home button at the same time after the Apple logo appeared to get the iPod to tun off. Then I held the home button and plugged into the USB port on my PC and then the iTunes logo with USB arrow showed up. Initiated the the restore function and all went well that time because the file was already complete and ready when iTunes needed it. It can be frustrating, but don't give up. Stick with it and try to get useful information on the web like I did because the iPod is useless with that horrible whie screen. It got stuck on the Apple logo 2 weeks ago and had to turn to the web to get help on that too. BIG SHOUT OUT TO YOU SUPERMURPH!!!!!

IPhoto 09 Freeze While Updating Library.....Everytime

I recently bought a Macbook Pro 15" 2.4GHz and installed iLife 09. On my previous computer (Powerbook 12" 1GHz) I was running iPhoto 2.0.1. I had copied that entire HD to an external drive. I plugged in the external drive to my new Powerbook and copied the User>Pictures>iPhoto Library Folder to appropriate location on the new HD. When starting up iPhoto 09, I got the message that it needed to update the library. Every attempt I made resulted in iPhoto freezing with the "Updating photo library...Time remaining" message. It often froze with the same amount of time remaining. I have tried several remedies: I deleted the com.apple.iphoto.plist from the preferences folder. I also tried to use BatChmod after following instructions in another forum, but that didn't seem to help. I also downloaded iPhoto Library Manager and used its rebuild function. This appeared to work and all the pictures are present (minus about thirty, but I think they were duplicates), but all 7,000+ got imported with the same date (DEC 31 2000) and were randomly arranged into about a dozen Events. Also, none of the Albums were transported. I don't have time to individually rearrange all the photos and rebuild all the albums. I would be happy solving either one of the problems. Thanks.

Thanks for responding Larry. I tried that, but unfortunately it did not work.
Based on what I read in some other threads, I tried forcing iPhoto to rebuild the library by holding command-option while starting iPhoto, but that did the exact same thing. I ended up downloading iPhoto Library Manager and using that to rebuild the library, which worked. There was one photo that could not be copied over (corrupted file or something), so that's probably what was making iPhoto hang. Luckily my mom had a backup on a CD.

Short freezes while updating Google calendars

IPhone 3GS -- Repeatedly freezes while updating to iOS 6

Perfectly working iPhone 3GS initially, then I tried upgrading to iOS 6. It froze at about 55% to 60% (based on the progress bar) and then after awhile it went black. No way to get it back easily. Repeatedly, I hit the two buttons together to reset, sometimes it works and I get the Apple symbol, but it hangs there permanently if I am not connected to the computer and, if I am, with iTunes running, it shows the phone there but won't let me click to "see it". The iPhone then tries again to update, but freezes again at 55% to 60%. There seems to be no way to break this cycle.
Anyone have ideas or suggestions? It appears that the iOS 6 update has killed my iPhone.

I'm having exactly the same issue. Phone now won't do anything.

ITunes 9 freezes while "Updating iTunes Library"

I have never had an issue with iTunes before, and after installing the newest version, I opened iTunes for the first time. It successfully went through the "Checking iTunes Library" progress bar, but when the "Updating iTunes Library" progress bar comes up, it gets to about 80% and then freezes my entire computer. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same issue. I've tried uninstalling and installing an older version, but it would not allow me to start the old version because it said something had already been created by iTunes 9. Has anyone else had this issue? Any ideas how to fix it? I never realized how dependent I was on iTunes until I wasn't able to use it anymore!

I have been having the same problem. Then I got the idea to cut and paste the message that comes up when I manually ended the program. That is what got me the answer to my problem. Someone posted that sometimes malware will try to take the place of other files. I have McAfee and it didn't find anything. But I did download a free program called Spybot Search and Destroy. It did, indeed find malware on my PC and after it got rid of it, my itunes is working as it should!!!

Can't check Lumia Amber update after hard reset no...

Hi,I recently hard reset my phone , And I am having problem checking update in my phone it says error code : ******** . I have successfully updated my phone before I have hard reset it . Do you have a solution for this ?

When was the last time you update your device?
Can you provide us the error code? If it is found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2793339, suggest to check and do the corresponding solution provided on the link as well.
As this works for some, try to enable and then disable the airplane mode under Settings. After this, manually check for the update again.
Let us know if this works or not.

Software Update Freezes While Updating OS

Hello Community,
MacBook Pro: Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz, 4 GB RAM
I'm sure others have had this problem and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a reason for it.
For quite a while, at least since installing Snow Leopard, when I try to install OS updates using the Software Update program the same sequence of events occurs:
1) The Updater thermometer appears and increases rapidly at first while 'Writing Files' appears above.
2) Gradually the thermometer slows down as it reaches its final 1/4.
3) As the thermometer gets to the end it slows down exponentially until,
4) The thermometer appears to have reached the end but nothing further happens, and
5) I have to manually shut down the machine and reboot.
I have worked around this problem by downloading the installer directly from Apple, avoiding Software Update, and the installations have proceeded as expected and without incident. But, why is Software Update not completing the installation?
Thanks,
JAClay

If you cannot boot into the recovery partition or Internet recovery I suggest a last gasp attempt.
Try SMC and PRAM resets:

Then try a Safe Boot:

If no success, an appointment at an Apple store genius bar becomes the best option.

Fresh Win7, freeze while rebooting after video driver installation

Yesterday when I opened my laptop it froze while booting when the Win7 logo appears. Rebooted in safemode, all was good, didn't know what to look for exactly.
Today, I decided it was time for a new Win7 reinstall so I did it. Also, did a complete format of my SSD where I keep only my OS.
While it was rebooting after installing the AMD video driver it froze again, in the same spot. Restarted the laptop, chose last known good config and noticed in device manager that one of the video cards had error 43 (Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43))
I tried to install the driver for Intel then, but I got an error saying my laptop does not have the minimum requierments (even for older versions of the driver)
I tried every possible combination of installing, uninstalling, enabling, disabling one of the cards.
When I install the AMD driver, the Intel driver installs itself too.
When I leave AMD graphics enabled, it freezez at Win7 logo while booting,
When I disable AMD and leave just Intel enabled, then it boots normally, but right after the reboot, device manager shows them both with yellow triangle and "!" with error "This device cannot work properly until you restart your computer. (Code 14)", and of course, if I reboot then it freezes again.
I have already spent 10h on this and couldn't find a way to fix it.

Hi
Using Advanced boot options ( F8 at start up ) go into Safe Mode with Command prompt , Once Safe mode loads with command prompt type rstrui.exe hit Enter .... This will take you into System Restore ... Follow the onscreen instructions to Restore your system to the time before the AMD driver was installed . You can choose from multiple restore points if they have been created by you or your system .
Post me your Findings
