Had 1418 error.formatted as fat.not fat32.now ipod doesnt work.why?plz help

The iTunes keeps saying that:
"The iPod "IPOD" cannot be updated. The disk could not be read or written to"
"The iPod "IPOD" cannot be updated.
And when I tried to restore it.
"The iPod "IPOD" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1418)"
thats a dreaded problem and i researched at many forums on how to solve it.....
before reading ur reply....there were some other replies that i read.....
which told me to format my ipod into fat partition...and not fat32 partition....then we had to update it and then restoring it would be possible........
that was the only article which i came across and which had a solution to 1418 problem......
so i began my work....
but as soon as i formatted my ipod shuffle second generation into fat partition.......
i restarted my comp...and then.the ipod is no longer working.......
if i push it to on......then there is a constant green light on it which does not go off even if i connect it to comp. using the dock provided.......
if i put it off,the green light goes off....
ideally when an ipod shuffle is connected to pc..there is an orange light that starts blinking ,that shows that the ipod is being charged.
but now when i connect mine.....
the green light blinks only once......and then nothing happens...
the device isnt working and so i cant even solve my 1418 problem ,as now i even have the solution.......
help me plz....
its really urgent....
its been just a month my uncle gifted me this ipod ...he stays in north carolina........and i stay in india.....
i dont even know if there are service centres of apple available in mumbai.and if they are,whether they are trust worthy or the ipod that i send to them might never to me and get stolen or something.....somebody might just keep it and say that its lost.......mumbai is not trustworthy.
but if there is a recognized apple service centre then i would want to go there and get my ipod repaired....i have one-year warranty with me.......but i dont know if the warranty of a product bought in north carolina works in india......
i cant throw this ipod....cause its my first ipod and it has hardly been time that i got it...its too early for me to throw it.....
i dont know why the ****.....cant i connect it to the comp...
i tried the following: after getting 1418 read and write error...:
reinstalled the itunes 7.0.2
reinstalled the drivers......
reset the ipod shuffle...
restarted my computer several times.....
checked the cable....
plugged the usb cable onto another port...
scanned the comp for viruses......
now the only thing left is that i think.....there can be a problem with the jack where the dock is plugged.....
maybe thats the reason my ipod isnt working...
even if i formatted into fat partition rather than fat32 partition,it should atleast be connected......
should atleast charge.....
should atleast be detected......
my ipod is not even getting detected by the comp as any unknown device also.....forget as an ipod....
i just shouldnt have formatted it...
although i think....that formatting it did not lead to this problem......
please help me.......
urgently...........
plz.....
plz......send ur reply fast..plz help me.........
get this ipod to work......
i will fix the 1418 error myself....
just get this device to work....so that comp starts detecting that i have connected something thru usb.....

On top of the two suggestions already given, make sure that the drive letter being assigned to the ipod when you plug it in in windows is not also a drive letter being assigned to another drive. I've heard that this happens occasionally and can cause all kinds of conflicts, from problems you are describing to lockups when trying to sync.
I would also try it on a different computer to see if that helps. Maybe you've got a friend or a computer at work that you can install itunes on and give it a shot there. This will let you know whether it's a problem with your specific computer or if it's a problem with the ipod.
The fact that it runs in Windows and you were able to reformat the flash memory stick tells me that the Ipod is working, but that something on your computer is not.
P.S. Obviously you've had it for 90 days, So I must assume that the USB port is working correctly. Otherwise the Ipod's battery would have drained by now. So I don't believe it is a hardware issue. So move past that for right now and look to your computer's settings for the answer.

  • I have an ipod touch 4th gen and I have songs on it which I cannot remove, even when I sync it and untick the songs they will not remove from the ipod, doesnt work manually either, help

    I previously had an ipod nano but now have an ipod touch, when I synced it for the first time I got songs on to the ipod which I dont want, I have tried unticking them in itunes library and this doesnt work.  I have also tried going to summary to remove manually but it doesnt show any songs in this box to be removed.  Can anone help please.

    Is your device recognized by your computer? If yes, copy the pictures and videos as shown in this article:
    Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
    If it is not recognized, try this first: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Disable autosync in iTunes, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" to copy apps and other media bought in iTunes to your new library.
    Do the same again and choose "backup", to create a manual backup without syncing.
    Since your device will be erased due to the new iTunes library during the first sync, you can use this backup afterwards to restore your settings and data.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer before you start, to be able to merge calendars and contacts.

  • Error code 1,iphone backup and restore,now phone doesnt work at all and apple not in any hurry to solve issue,only had phone 4 mths,wish id stuck with iphone3 and never upgraded

    what a nightmare,no phone for 3 days and no sign of any positive help from apple.done backup and restore as wifi on phone stopped working,error code 1 and now phone doesnt work at all,apple say other people having problem but havent heard of anyone else,really disappointed in way apple are keeping me hanging on,phone is only 4 mths old

    My iphone is only 6 months old and I am experiencing the same problems. I have already had to have the phone swapped once with a phone that has a blown speaker. (The apple store is 2.5hours away so I havent been able to go back to replace the replacement) Since I did the ios 5 update, my phone says NO SERVICE and drops calls. It was speratic but last night, same ERROR message as you. As you know, if forces you to restore which caused me to loose valuable information and documents. insert loud profanity here _________. lol

    Hello lenmin,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To help resolve this issue where you're repeatedly prompted to authorize with your Apple ID in iTunes when syncing, please follow the directions in the article below.

    i am syncing my ipod but it comes up with a error saying itunes could not backup the ipod because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the ipod, what do i do?

    As I said the iTunes program on the computer.  You open iTunes on the computer and go to the View menue in the upper rightand then click on preferences. Go to Devices and delete the backup.

  • HAD AN ERROR WHEN DOWNLOADING QUICKTIME THIS MORNING NOW ITUNES SAY ITS CLOSED ???    RUNNING VISTA

    HAD AN ERROR WHEN DOWNLOADING QUICKTIME THIS MORNING NOW ITUNES SAY ITS CLOSED ???    RUNNING VISTA

    Found the solution! Hooray!
    Noticed a suggestion on this thread:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11731496#11731496
    To look in the ~/Library/iTunes/Mobile\ Backups folder to find the Manifest.plist folder, and delete entries for apps that might be causing the problem.
    I remembered that a little while ago, I had started getting an error message while syncing and updated app (Sleepmaker or something- couldn't remember which, precisely, but knew that it was a white noise app). So, I went to the Manifest.plist folder, and removed the entries for the couple different flavors of the Sleepmaker app that I had installed.
    Then, reconnected the iPhone, and clicked "Continue Restore" once again when it reported that there had been an interrupted restore. This time, it went through fully! Took quite a while (~1 hr) to copy all my media onto the phone, but now it's all there! Hopefully this will help others who might in the same situation...

    I need to encourage and not because my computer does not appear to me and others computers that has the same photoshop cc if that option appears. It would be helpful to know what thanks

    99.9% of the time, the cause of this issue is the fact the phone was jailbroken/hacked to unlock it for use on networks other than the network the phone was originally locked to. Apple maintains a database of officially unlocked iPhones, and when Apple's servers detect phones such as yours, activation stops & you get the message you got.
    So, either get a sim card from the carrier your phone was originally locked to, or get it officially unlocked, if you want to activate it. Because it appears that it was not officially unlocked

    The fact that it doesn't know what the format is
    might have to do with the problem. I've had similar
    problems, and I've traced it back to missing jars and
    codecs. Have you tried running the same code locally
    without the transmission to see if you player will
    even play the file?Already and it works, I used Player to play it and play normally, I try to make it with the diferents codecs of audio and video, but no sucess.

  • Has anyone had the error "The file could not be read due to an error" when selecting ignore or replace image links. The linked images are in Dropbox if that helps.

    I am working on a Mac 10.9.5 with Adobe CS6. My files are locally in Dropbox but once we moved files to network and tried opening the AI - the file would not recognize the original folder location. I tried ignoring the missing images but then I receive the error - The file could not be read due to an error." The same error happens when I try replacing the first missing image. I know the problem lies in the images are linked back to my Dropbox but the AI file doesn't care since it won't let me replace or ignore the image links.

    Jasion,
    Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
    In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:
