Help...anyone that knows about ipods and computers

I use winamp to manage my ipod because itunes does not launch on my pc, anyway, everything's been working fine until today. I went to "my computer" and i right clicked on the icon IPOD:E and i clicked eject, thinking that it will only eject my ipod from the computer, but it's like it removed the ipod database from the computer, thinking that it would resolve the issue i restored my ipod, and then i went back to winamp only to fine that my ipod no longer is recognized by it...and i cant put back my songs on my ipod. If anyone out there knows about computers and electronics, please tell me what i did wrong and how i can fix it. Thanks

I ordered my 5G a few days after they were released. I also got mine engraved. After a few days the hold switch stopped working. Instead of dealing with Apple and mailing my iPod back and waiting for a replacement to arrive I went to the Apple store. The "genius" said they could return the unit and order another engraved one. I aksed for a in store replacement. I did not want to be with out an iPod while the new one is mailed to me. It was no problem. He went to POS and came back with a new iPod sealed in box, opened it up and handed it to me.
You should have no problem.

For anyone who knows about JVM and MRJ

I have built an application that runs as expected on Mac OS X. Take the same program and run it on OS 9 (after using MRJAppBuilder) and the errors start. I have included the error below, I never use Vector.toString() so I am wondering if this may be in my JDBC drivers code, or a problem with Apple's MRJ? The code in Question I traced from the EventHandlers actionPerformed method which calls a fetch() method in our Connector class which uses JDBC driver to access the database. I caught a java.lang.NullPointerException with a simple system.out to tell me it was caught and the same error is still thrown on OS 9 so I am wondering if it could be JDBC or MRJ?

I'm also including the Connector's fetch() method just in case, it's the only code with Vectors for return values.

ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery( sqlString );

If you mean that the iPhone has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device - then you will need that information, or you'll need to get the previous owner to remove the device from his/her iCloud account:

If you can't reach the previous owner or he/she is unwilling to cooperate, then the device is unusable by you. Return the iPhone for a refund if you can.

Help! iTunes wont recognise iPod and ive tried everything..

I seem to have this ongoing drama with iTunes. I thought it was all over last week when I updated iTunes with the latest version. Everything was sweet for a couple of days. Now its back!
Whats happenning is this:
I connect iPod.
Nothing happens, it doenst start up iTunes.
So I manually open iTunes.
iTunes is very slow. Finally opens up.
Then it spends another 5mins "frozen".
Finally the iPod pops up but its asking me to re-name it.
It asks me this every time.
When it syncs it takes a long time.
When I ask it to eject, it takes probably 20min.
Sometimes i have to eject it from My Computer.
This is what I have tried to do:
Restart the computer.
Restart iPod.
Change USB ports.
Restore iPod from iTunes - it never actually completed this as after 2 hrs of watching the progress bar not going past the first stage I gave up!
Re-install iTunes. Couldnt get it to go past the part where it was stopping a service? Dont know what this means but it wouldnt re-install.
So can anyone suggest what I should try now cause I am stuck.
Please if you have a suggestion I would appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Update - I have discovered that iTunes will only recognise my iPod if I open it in the following order 1)Connect iPod, and 2)Open iTunes. If I already have iTunes open and then plug the iPod in it wont work.
Its still asking me to set up the iPod and it takes around 5mins to detect the iPod is connected.
Please can anyone help me?????

Can Anyone Recommend Books About Mac and Tiger?

Hello,
I'm heading back to the homeland for a short visit in a week's time. I'd like to buy a book that can explain a few things about Tiger so I don't always have to visit the Apple Store and bother the Geniuses there.
Can anyone recommend any good books about Mac and Tiger? I know of "Mac For Dummies" but I've never been a big fan of that series. Cheers and thanks.

About Ipod and losing your info. on computer?

I recently bought a 20gig ipod with color display( actually I don't know if it is considered the photo because I can store pictures on it). I have a friend who has a previous version of the 20gig and she recently went away on a trip and when she returned, her computer was gone and replaced with a new one. She lost all of the info. for her Ipod and she told me that she can no longer put any music on there. Is there any truth to this or can she just erase everything off of her Ipod and start fresh? Can anyone help? I would hope you can just start fresh because what if something happened to your computer and you had no back-up, would your Ipod have no use at that point? Please help!

If her iPod still has the songs, she should be able to get them back on the new computer by following the instructions here: MacMuse, "Computer Crashed" #4, 11:49pm Feb 7, 2005 CDT
Of course she can also start afresh by restoring the iPod. This will of course erase everything on the iPod. Does she want to save the songs on the iPod (if they are still there)? If so follow the directions in the above link.

HELP! STUCK IN MY iPOD AND I CAN'T GET OUT!

Plugged my iPod in to my laptop two days ago, and iPod was unresponsive. Simply have an apple icon on the iPod screen, and it won't go away ... won't update on iTunes, won't do anything. Have restarted (holding Menu + Play buttons) but don't know if that's a soft or hard reset.
The unit was sent back to Apple several months ago for service (problem that many people were having, unit wouldn't hold a charge) but it has been used fine for months since then, no problems. Now this ... unit is a 3rd G, and I'm perplexed.
Anyone had similar problems, or suggestions on how to fix?
Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I have to mention that I am not a technician, I may not understand the reason behind, I could be wrong and my suggestion may not work in your case. But, I must say that all the suggestions I made are basically from my past experience fixing more than 10 iPods (from my friends and family members). I do not and have no intention to make a suggestion purely from what I heard and read (otherwise I would indicate). These have been tested and proved to work in my cases. I also have to deal with iPod problems such as:-
1. Sad iPod
2. Folder with exclamation mark
3. iPod failed to be recognized by the computer
4. broken iPod with 'clicking' sound
I can simply post a link from the apple article - which would suggest you to do a Reset and Restore actions, however, most of the users would agree with me that the iPod with the aforementioned problems would not able to get mounted with the computer. In that case, how could you do a Restore. Should I just suggest the user to send their iPods for repair?
I have tried myself with different ways, and I discovered a tricks to solve the above problems. First, we must understand what is the problem behind - in my opinion, the problem mainly caused by the head of HD of the iPod getting stuck at a certain point and unable to read the sector properly. If an iPod is an external Hard Disk, how are you going to fix it, I believe that all of us would suggest one to do a Reformat. Right, but unfortunately, the iPod could not be mounted, so what next? I find an interesting way - when the iPod is formatted in PC and connected with a Mac computer, it will "Force" mount, then why not do a Restore there. And once it has been completed, re-connect it with your original PC, and this time with the iPod being formatted to a different format, a window will pop up, indicating that it cant read the iPod and ask whether you would like to do a reformat. Then open the iPod updater and click Restore (back to PC version). Again, interestingly, it works the other way as well i.e. Mac's iPod fixed with a Window based PC.

Did you know about "Arbitration and Mediation" FAQ?

I have just made a discovery that many of you frustrated Verizon customers will be very interested in knowing about. Did you know that you can type in legal action in the search verizon.com box and you will find a category called "Arbitration & Mediation" FAQ? For those of you, like myself who have been dealing with months and months of issues with Verizon and you are getting nowhere, you might check this out. It is very interesting.This may have saved me hours and hours of time and some over the top emotion that our situation has caused.

Proper names are known. But product names will not be - nor will acronyms.

*Unique situation* Please read if you know about iPod not showing up . . .

Okay. This may take awhile to explain, but here's the story. . .
So I recently bought a macbook. I wanted to transfer all of my old files from my G4 cube to my Macbook but didn't haev a firewire cable. So I decided to use my 20GB iPod. I plugged it in to my cube. To do a test run, I put one file on my ipod, ejected it safetly and plugged it in my macbook. I successfully took the file off. Success! So I decided it was time to put everythign on the iPod. I plugged it back in my Cube (this is seriously all taking place in a matter of minutes) and the ipod does not register. On the screen it says "do not disconnect" but it's not on my desktop or itunes. I remove it, try again, restart and everything. No dice. I then put it back on my macbook and it worked again. It continued to work on my macbook and not on my cube after several trials. So I decided to restore my iPod. I did just that. Problem unresolved. Next, I go to the disk utility program, and it's there! But it's in a lighter shade than the other files. I decided to go to options and try "mount," but nothing occurs. And that's where I am now. A restored iPod, and still no solution. Any advice is GLADLY appreciated. How could the tables turn like this in five minutes time?

Run through the installation procedure. When asked for the destination drive, click on the Menu option next to the blue Apple in the top left-hand side of the screen (I think it's labelled 'Installer') and there should be an option labelled 'Disk Utility'. From here, you should be able to see your disk drive and reformat it so that it can be used in the installation. Give it a bash and tell us how it goes.

Need to find a dual cord that powers my Ipod and syncs to PC via USB

I'm looking for a dual cord that both will power my Ipod and connect via USB to my laptop. I have an older version of the Ipod and its battery is not strong enough to last a complete sync. Therefore I need to find this cord that has both the ability to power up my Ipod and to sync to the PC. I've seen it around, just can't find it anywhere online to purchase. Any ideas??

You can get one from Amazon: USB/Firewire 1394 Y Cable for Apple iPod
