  • The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything works perfectly. I even used the advice given on the tech support page, and it still will not come on. HELP ME PLEASE.

    The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything else is working fine I even took the tech support advice by plugging it in and resetting it, but that didn't fix the issue either. I need help.

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Nano 6th generation will not turn on but works when plugged in to itunes?

    My son got a nano 6th generation for christmas 2010 and brought it to me the other day because the screen would not turn on. I plugged it into itunes and it was there, all songs were still on it. I tried to trouble shoot the device after unplugging it by holding down the negative volume button and the sleep button for 10 seconds. I repeated the steps but nothing happened. I plugged it back into itunes and restored the device to original settings. Still no display. Will Apple exchange the device if it has not been 12 months since date of purchase? Please advise. I am at a loss.!

    Since your iPod is still under the 1 year warranty against manufacturer defects, I would take it in to your local Apple Store/Genius bar and see if they'll replace it, which they should as long as they determine the cause its not from accidental damage or use.

  • I REALLY need help with this! (not too hard) (but hard to explain) (long)

    I know that this isn't hard, but I just can't figure it out.
    I am trying to create artificial cellular life, but the cells will be able to go through sexual reproduction.
    The DNA for the cells is a 500 index boolean array. One array for Dominant genes, and another one for Rececive genes.
    The DNA is generated randomly.
    The division (to make a sperm cell) works like this -
    1. I get a random number with the Math.random() function, and I use the Math.round() function to round it to either a 1, or a 0.
    2. The boolean arrays are converted to integer arrays (true = 1, false = 0).
    3. If the random number is a 1, then (in a for loop) the current index value of the dominant array is changed to a 3. If the random numnber is equal to a 0, then the current index value of the rececive array is changed to a 3.
    I started working on a new class, to combine the sperm cell with another sperm cell (call it an egg cell, whatever, doesn't matter) in order to create a new complete cell.
    I realized that I have no idea how I can reuse my classes, and make NEW cells, without overwriting my old cells.
    All of the final information that the classes produce is passed through TestMain.class (which puts it into other variables, and sends it to the appropriate class).
    So, I need to be able to run the process for creating a cell, then creating a sperm cell out of it, twice.
    I can, of course, just copy and paste this action, but seeing as how I want to have unlimited amounts of cells in action, this would not be practical.
    Here are my classes, sorry that they are not commented, but I explained what they do above, and I will write what they do overall.
    Genes.java - Creates the random DNA (and is essentially the cell)
    public class Genes {
    public boolean[] domgenes = new boolean[501];
    public boolean[] recgenes = new boolean[501];
        public void randgenes()
    System.out.println ("Dominant Genome: ");
    System.out.println ("");
    int domcount = 0;
            for(int i=0; i<500; i++) {
                double tempgene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
                int tempdomgene = (int)(tempgene);
                  if(tempdomgene == 1) {
                  domgenes[i] = true;
                System.out.print(1);
                  else {
                  domgenes[i] = false;
                System.out.print(0);
              for (int x = 0; x<500; x++) {
                if (domcount == 0) {
                System.out.println("");
                System.out.println("");
                System.out.println ("Rececive Genome: ");
                System.out.println("");
                domcount = 1;
                double tempgene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
                int temprecgene = (int)(tempgene);
                  if(temprecgene == 1) {
                  recgenes[x] = true;
                  System.out.print(1);
                  else {
                  recgenes[x] = false;
                  System.out.print(0);
        public boolean[] getdomGenes()
            System.out.println("");
            return domgenes; //returns the dominant genome
        public boolean[] getrecGenes()
            return recgenes; //returns the rececive geneome
        }DivideGenes.java - This creates the sperm cell out of the information that TestMain.java sent it (which is the information that Genes.java sent to it).
    public class DivideGenes
        int badcopy =0;
        boolean[] domgenes;
        boolean[] recgenes;
        int[] tempdomgenes = new int[501];

            this.domgenes = domgenes;
            this.recgenes = recgenes;
       public int randommath() { //finds a random number
                double tempgene2 = Math.random();
                tempgene2 = tempgene2*500;
                tempgene = (int)tempgene2;
          return tempgene;
        public void randdivide() //main process
    for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
    if (domgenes[i] == true) {

    if (binmath() == 1) {

        double tempbingene = (Math.round((Math.random())));
               int bingene = (int)(tempbingene);
                return bingene;
      }TestMain.java - This is the class that all of the result information is passed through, and is the regulator class (this is the class with the 'main' block). I used the names of the objects randomly, they do not represent anything (like cell2 does not represent the second cell), they are just names.
    public class TestMain
        public static void main(String[] args)
            Genes cell = new Genes();
            cell.randgenes();

           int[] theTempRececiveGenes = cell2.getNewRecGenes();
         CreateNewCell cell3 = new CreateNewCell (theTempDominantGenes,theTempRececiveGenes);
      cell3.CompileCell();
      }CreateNewCells.java - This is going to combine two sperm cells in order to make one new cell. It doesn't have anything in it so far, just some System.out.println stuff I made to show my friends.
    public class CreateNewCell {
    int[] tempdomgenes;
    int[] temprecgenes;
    public CreateNewCell(int[] tempdomgenes, int[] temprecgenes)
            this.tempdomgenes = tempdomgenes;
            this.temprecgenes = temprecgenes;
    public void CompileCell() {
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("Sperm Division Started");
    System.out.println("------------------------------------------");
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println ("Dominant Genome after random gene elimination");
    System.out.println("");
    for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
    System.out.print(tempdomgenes);
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println("");
    System.out.println ("Rececive Genome after random gene elimination");
    System.out.println("");
    for (int i = 0; i < 500; i++) {
    System.out.print(temprecgenes[i]);
    Thank you very much if you choose to help me out.

    As I said before, your code is not object.
    When you write
    DivideGenes cell2 = new DivideGenes(theDominantGenes, theRececiveGenes);it means than from 2 Genes, you are creating a new object which is DivideGenes. I assume that what you want is to create a cell from an other cell and its mate.
    So it should be:
    public class Cell {
      //put here your gene class attributes and methods
      public Cell divideCell(Cell mate) {
         Cell child = new Cell();
         //put here your divide code
         return child;
    }Otherwise I can't understand your code.
    What kind of object is a createcellGene?? It must be a method of Cell !!

  • My iPod 4th generation will not turn on but the backlight is still glowing.

    Last night my iPod had been acting up like crashing and not loading apps. I turned it off and then tried to turn it on but it woudn't. The backlight still glows. Any held would be appreciated. :]

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Please Help.I have upload one Music Free icon from Apple store,after installation.I have opened the music video but 5 min after the mobile screen stopped to work.The screen touch is not reacting.And exist the voice e mail.What I have to do?

    Please help!! I have iPhone 4.Version 6.1.3.I have upload and purchased a lot of things from Apple store.It was Music free icon Japanese media,also Movie uploader icon.I was intended to open but requested to sign in and I was registered in You tube and Google.The Video has been opened and after 5 min,everything stopped.Screen Touch dont recognize anything.I mean I was trying to close the video but screen touch was not reacting.After I have switched off/on the iPhone but no result.I can switch on but cant press the buttons.And there is a voice which is just repeating if you are trying to press the button.Now I dont know what to do ? I am just thinking about virus but, how,I was thinking that all devices purchased from Apple Store is safely?maybe i am mistaken.please advice,maybe i need to go to Apple services Center????

    No, I have not tried any backup tools. I havent restored my ipod back to factory settings yet and then sync everything back on it. I am kind of scared too because I dont want to lose anything. I have just been hoping some new apple software update will come out because I know several people have had problems when updating to the newest version available.

  • 5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp.  works fine on other pc.  performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

    5th generation ipod not detected by my windows xp.  works fine on other pc.  performed necessary steps to remove and reinstall itunes but having same issue. is there a driver i can download to pc then direct to that specific location when installing?

    I have a similar issue - my iPod nano connects and is visible in Device Manager yet invisible in My Computer and iTunes. I've tried everything I can possibly think of to try and solve this myself, all in vain.
    Mine is a nano 4G. I've been using it for quite some time without the slightest problem. I have been using WINAMP instead of iTunes to manage my darling nano.
    Then, one fine day I bought a new computer and the nano would not show up in My Computer, though the nano display shows "Do not disconnect". On my old computer it worked (and still works) absolutely fine with win XP as well as with win7 (the later I currently use on my new/problematic computer, which I bought last summer and that's how long I've had this problem).
    Of course, after several first attempts I gave up and installed iTunes. I've tried using the Apple support article "iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows":
    - reset
    - fully charged,
    - cable works fine on two other computers
    - in normal or disk mode makes no difference
    - tried to find anything useful in the diagnostics mode
    - reinstalled iTunes several different times since then to the latest version
    - I've unplugged every other USB device except for my mouse and keyboard and tried several different USB ports on my motherboard (USB 3.0 and conventional), as well as trying different USB- related options in my BIOS.
    - I've never used any Mac with this ipod
    - I've tried fiddling with the win7 Services by stopping and restarting them and of course
    - uninstalling the iPod drivers in Device Manager. After such an uninstall the ipod would automatically be recognised and "ready for use", i.e. being invisible in My Computer.
    - Attempted to find any possible third-party conflict with msconfig or the possibility that my ipod is being confused for a network drive (for which I've disconnected my HDD, leaving only my SSD with the OS).
    Sometimes, iTunes would note that iPod service (or something, can't remember exactly) failed to install properly and asked to try and repair it. I would click YES! and voila - no change! The ipod would rarely show up in iTunes on my problematic computer like this:
    iTunes would warn me that the nano would need restoring so I would try and do it on my haunted machine upon which iTunes would freeze like you seen in the picture.
    Despite this, I've updated and restored the nano on my father's computer to the latest version without any problems. This though, did not solve my problem in any way.
    I can load music to my nano through my old computer (which for me is a real pain and hassle) and the gadget works normally in terms of its disconnected functionality.
    I've taken my nano to the local service for repair and they said it was fine. Mercifully, they didn't charge for the diagnostics service (gee, thanks for not ripping me off!).
    Here are two screengrabs from my Device Manager
    and Devices and Printers screens on my comp:
    That is my sad story as far as I can remember. It's most likely something with the drivers or something along those lines though I'm out of ideas at this point.
    If you think you have any idea PLEASR HELP, I'M DESPERATE!

  • I-pods appears in windows but not in i-tines - no download or sync possible

    My i-pod doesn't appear in i-tunes but does in windows (work station). I did everything (re-install windows,i-tunes, update i-tunes and the 5 R). But nothing works.
    I made a check up and for the computer all is working normally but the "i-tunes helper". Could it be a reason for my issue?
    By the way, may it be a FAT32 issue because in the diagnostic it is written the i-tunes Preference file doesn't exist (see below):
    [SERVICE: 0x398,13:20:28 ERROR] Did not find first letter of stage
    [SERVICE: 0x398,13:20:28 INFO] got HotPlugState 0

  • On my MacBook with Lion Safari does start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library did not help. Where can I find and remove all components (LastSession ...)?

    How can I reset Safari with all components? On my MacBook with Lion, Safari does not start, does not react immediately after trying to open it. Installing a new Safari does not help. Removing parts of Safari in the Library does not help. Where can I find and remove all components as LastSession and TopSites?

    The only way to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.7 Lion is to restore OS X using OS X Recovery
    Instead of restoring OS X in order to reinstall Safari, try troubleshooting extensions.
    From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
    If it's not an extension or plug-in issue, delete the cache.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
