Frozen ipod photo.  Can't do anything.  Help!

My ipod photo 60 gig was working fine today, then suddenly froze up. The screen stays on with backlight on, showing the menu that was on when it froze. I can't do any of the 5 r's, can't toggle the hold switch can't move from menu to menu. When I connect it to either one of my computers, it doesn't show up in Itunes. Is it a goner? Any suggestions?

FYI. For some reason I decided to plug it in to my ac adapter, and that seemed to bring it back to life. Why, I don't know.
I'm still wondering if it's on its last legs, tghough.

    My iPad is frozen and I can't do anything.  It's stuck on an internet screen.  I can't turn it off.  When I plug it in it says it is NOT charging.  Can anyone help?

    Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • My iPhone 3Gs has frozen and I can't do anything except turn it off by hard boot. When I plug it in, I have the apple icon and that is all. It was at 43 percent battery life when it happened and my Twitter app was giving me problems. Thoughts?

  • My daughter has an iBook G4. When you turn it on the wallpaper comes up but no toolbar or icons. It's just frozen and you can't do anything. Any tips out there?

    Once the Desktop shows up, then it is started up as far as it will go.
    If it doesn't progress, then something is definitely wrong.
    Do you know the capacity of the hard drive and how much space remains available on it? Sometimes operating anomalies such as this can happen if the hard drive is too full.
    Do you have access to another Mac with FireWire?

    A. iPhoto '11. Version 9.4.2 (710.42)
    What version of the Operating System?
    A.Mac OS X Version 10.7.5
    What was I doing when the problem arose?
    A. I was uploading some pictures from my camera to my Mac then I closed it. next time tried to open it and it went right to the way that the pictire before shows.
    Did it ever work properly?
    A. It had some details; like taking a lot of time to send a picture from iPhoto to an e-mail or not send it at all.
    What steps have I tried already to solve the issue?
    A. None, I havent wanted to do anything to fix it because I'm afraid I could somehow delete my pictures. I know the pictures still there; because, they are on my screen saver changing and changing.
    I also want to know if there is any other way for me to see my pictures other than trought iPhoto?

  • Ipod photo-can't get  pictures from ipod to pc

    I have pictures in my ipod that I transferred with the USB digital camera connection, but I can't get them onto i-tunes/my computer.
    I can see them on the ipod, but when I connect to itunes and computer i can't see or access the pictures on either (PC or IPOD).
    I tried arranging the settings so it would automatically sync pictures into folders, but it doesn't´t do it.
    I don´t know if it has anything to do with the fact that i used to have a regular ipod, and connected the ipod photo to my existing itunes...
    Either way PLEASE PLEASE HELP IF YOU HAVE ANY SOLUTIONS.
    THANK YOU!!!

    I'm not really familiar with iTunes for Windows, but on the Mac, iTunes does not fetch photos off the iPod that were imported using the Camera Connector.
    Instead, you'll have to enable Disk Mode for the iPod. There's a folder named DCIM on the iPod's hard drive that contains the pictures. You can either copy this folder manually, or use a program that recognizes the DCIM folder and treats the iPod like a digital camera to import the photos.

  • My ipod photo can not be read from or written to?

    My ipod photo flashes up with the following message when conected to the Mac and iTunes :
    "Attempting to copy to the disk "Ste's iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    Does this mean the disc in broken and it needs sending back to Apple?
    Please help me!!!

  • IPod photo and stereo reciever--need help

    I have a 30-gig iPod Photo from about 2006. It works great but I'm wondering if anyone knows why it won't play the songs through my Pioneer Elite stereo receiver. I have a USB input and iPod option that plays my iPod Nano perfectly. But the receiver doesn't even detect the iPod Photo. I realize it's older, but why wouldn't it play songs on it when it does the Nano?? Thanks.

    I have the same problem that you do. I have tried all, restart, reboot, restore to its original settings and nothing. I have tried using the battery to run it off and I have charged it again and nothing happened. The equipment reproduces music, but with a white screem is imposible to operate it. I guess I will try to use the warranty, but I live abroad the US. If you have any progress, please let me know. Good luck, regards, ajlorenzos

  • ITunes is saying I have to do a recovery on my iPhone 4, but doing so will restore factory settings and I'll lose photos, contacts, etc. The phone is completely frozen and I can't do anything else. Help!

    I plugged my phone into my laptop this morning and it started doing an update. I walked away from my desk, came back and had an error message and a prompt saying my phone is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. But when I click "ok" to do that it says it will restore the factory settings and I'll lose all media, data and contacts. I DON'T want to do that--the whole reason I plugged my phone in this morning was to download some new photos, so I can't lose them!
    The phone isn't working...it's showing a usb connector pointing to an iTunes icon.
    Help!!!

    If your phone is in recovery mode, you've already lost all data on the phone...its gone. Your only option now is to restore the phone, either from backup or as a new device.

  • I can't seem to sign into the store on my iPod and can't do anything with my account at all for iTunes

    Since this morning ive been having a rough go with my iPod. The e-mail aspect of it wasn't working correctly, and still isnt. It takes a long time for it to load. Then a friend tried to message my iMessage and instead of coming to my iPod it went to my e-mail. So I decided to try and restart my iPod. That didnt help. So i went into my settings and signed out of my account and now I can't sign back in. Once again. Did not help. So I got on my computer and Thought I'd sync my iPod to my iTunes it did its normal sync routine. Didn't help. Then I tried Viewing my account on iTunes and it won't let me, I dare not sign out of my account on iTunes in case the same thing happen. It takes long to access and then tells me it has timed out. And now my iPod is having troubles with my e-mail again and told me it couldn't load my yahoo when I know it can. I'm not sure what else to do or if maybe this is an Apple update thing but it's starting to get rather annoying. I've tried everything I can think of, maybe someone can help. If you know anything about this please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it.

    It means what the message says. The format of the song can't be converted to a format compatible with the iPod.
    Does it play in iTunes?
    Where id the song come form?
    Try deleting and reimporting into iTunes.
