TS1538 My Ipod is showing the iTUNES Logo and freezing and when i try to connect to iTunes to restore, iTunes doesn't recognised my Ipod. Help Please.

I was casually charging my Ipod when suddnely the iTunes logo appears, so i connected it to my laptop and itunes wouldn't recognised my ipod. I tried puting it in recovery mode various times but it just doesn't work. Please notify me if you have a resolution.

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.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Until I hit the numbers again. Which I try to avoid but when I am moving along nicely, by habit I use the keypad. Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it? Help???

You may have hit the Option key five times and turned on Mouse Keys. When it is on, Keypad-0 will lock the mouse down. You can turn it off, and disable the quintuple Option, in the "Mouse" pane of "Universal Access" System Preference.

HELP --- iTunes and iPod freeze

I'm hoping someone can help me with this....I have an ipod Photo (using windows xp) and everytime I add music to my ipod, say 15 songs, itunes will freeze as soon as it finishes adding the songs. I get the "not responding," "error" prompt and have to close itunes and disconnect my ipod just to have it do it all over again. If I re-open itunes without disconnecting and reconnecting my ipod, itunes says it can't read the ipod. This is really annoying because everytime I want to add songs I have to go through this whole process. Does anyone know what I am talking about??? Thanks in advance for any tips you can give me.

krakrjak,
For better results I'd recommend creating your own thread so the responses received focus on your issue/question.
This document explains how to recover iTunes Store purchases from your device:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
If the music on your iPod is not purchased from the iTunes Store, recovering the songs will require the use of third party software. Some links:

ITunes freezes up when connecting ipod

Okay I know this was a topic a few weeks back. iTunes has been freezing up when I start it either by clicking on the icon and then connecting the ipod or when I connect my ipod first and then itunes starts up. This was apparently a problem caused by the recent upgrade. I have been prompted to upgrade to a newer version. And of course because I am posting this when I just opened itunes the prompt did not come up.
My question is will this upgrade fix the previous problem caused by the previous upgrade? I've found that if I let my ipod stay connected that somewhere between 10-40 minutes will pass and itunes will recognize it. I'm running Windows XP on a Dell Laptop.

Please help - iTunes won't start anymore: unknown error -69

Hello out there,
please can anybody help me: all of a sudden my iTunes won't start any more - it only shows a message stating an unknown error -69 and then quits.
I did not change anything on my system before that, so I just don't know what could trigger that...
I am using iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows XP SP2, both German versions.
Before posting this question I searched the archives and tried the following, all to no avail:
1. disabled "safe mode" in QuickTime audio options -> problem remains
2. set speakers to "stereo headphones" in Windows sound options -> problem remains
3. deinstalled iTunes, downloaded the installation file again and reinstalled it -> problem remains
4. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime, downloaded QuickTime stand-alone version, installed this and afterwards iTunes again -> problem remains
5. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime again, deleted all iTunes and QuickTime data folders, reinstalled everything again -> problem remains
6. ran a CHKDSK an the drive iTunes is on -> no problems found
It still won't start, always giving this unknown error -69.
Please, does anybody know what to do?
Any hints and help are much appreciated!
Thanks a lot
and best regards

Hi Blane756,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps for a different issue, a gray screen at startup, that I think would still be worth trying for your freezing issues:

Help: iTunes and my computer (XP) freeze when trying to synchronize iPod Nano (6G)

Hi,
My iTunes (10.6) and my computer (running on Windows XP SP3) (near) freezes when I'm trying to synchronize my iPod Nano (6G). iTunes consumes 99% of my computer processor. And the iTunes screen stalls with the text "Synchronize starts". My iPod seems to react in the beginning, it shortly shows "synchronizing", but stops after a few seconds en says "connected" after.
I tried waiting for a long time, maybe it's just slow but that was just disappointing.
I allready changed the drive letter for the iPod in computer/disk management (a suggestion on an another forum). Didn't help.
Also tried resetting the iPod, didn't help.
I always end up killing the iTunes process in TaskManagement or rebooting the computer
I tried updating iTunes to a newer versions (running on 10.6). But that's also not responding. When I select download the newest software just nothing happens.
(I had this before and know how to fix this: run Windows Installer Cleanup en do a complete new install, lots of work).
Problably related problems but keen on suggestions
Wim

Itunes locks up my PC when it starts. It tries to access the store and then the computer freezes and I have to pull the plug. Help!

I am running Windows XP and I have an iPhone 4, but ever since 5 days ago I cannot even open up iTunes without it freezing my PC. This happens with our without the phone plugged in. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes in the correct order and still it is happening. Can anyone help with what might have changed in my PC settings? TIA

You could try wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS and all your programs.
Did you install any programs yesterday?
If not it may be best to take it to an Apple care center and have it checked out. Take it in while it is asleep so you ccan show then what is happening.

I am unable to use Itunes because it freezes when I plug my Iphone 3g in.

Hi,
I needed a phone, so my brother gave me his old Iphone 3g. I instantly downloaded the latest itunes (10.5.3) and I purchased some songs and application at itunes store. Unfortunately when I plug my iphone in it freezes itunes and I can't put anything on the phone. My iphone has absolutely nothing on the phone, no songs, apps, contacts, nothing.
I have tried for about a week now. Looking at forums on the internet and downloading alternatives to itunes like media monkey and foobar and alot of other programs to be able to put music on my phone.I spoke to my brother and he had no troubles at all with the phone.
I have no idea what to do. PLEASE HELP.
PC/Laptop- HP Pavilion dv6-2109AX
Windows 7
Iphone 3g
Software: 4.2.1
I have tried plugging the iphone in different ports. I heard you need to plug it into a 2.0 usb port, but I tried all of them. I don't know if my laptop has 2.0 usb ports because it still didn't work.
I tried reinstalling itunes the correct order multiple times but that didn't work.
I tried deleting the crash files that I didnt even have. I don't have the appdata file to delete its contents, if I do I couldn't find it.
I had to delete my virus software and disable it while I plugged my iphone in.I restarted my computer multiple times and restored my computer a few times and also deleted alot of useless files and movies to make my computer run faster.
As soon as I plug my iphone in, itunes instantly freezes. When unplugged itunes instantly unfreezes.
Also I have the original Iphone charger.
HELP! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
Thanks in advance. (:

I have Windows 7 and just recently experienced a problem with itunes freezing up when I clicked on the "apps" tab. Everything else seems to work okay in itunes. I have uninstalled it and reloaded it 4 or 5 times, but still freezes up.

I have Windows 7 and just recently experienced a problem with itunes freezing up when I clicked on the "apps" tab which shows the apps that are loaded on my phone. Everything else in the itunes software seems to be working okay. The problem is in the part where you sync the newly purchased apps. The apps will all be blank that are downloaded and that part of the software crashes itunes or freezes up. I can get out of itunes okay after the freeze up, but it just stops me from syncing anything that I have newly added. If anyone has had this problem before or knows someone that has, please let me know how I can fix it. I have uninstalled and reloaded itunes 4 or 5 times, but the problem is still there. I might add that I have been using itunes and purchasing apps for 2 to 3 years without any problems. HELP.

You would get better response from the iTunes community forum.
Have a nice day!

Itunes keeps syncing my iphone4s when no options are selected to do so. Ipod appears to be fine. I have latest ios version on phone. Windows user pc. Any help would be appreciated

I updated to the new itunes software on my windows pc. I plugged in iphone 4s to transfer music across. itunes then started wiping all other music, but still showing songs on phone etc. Playlists just scrolled through as though nothing was there. Summary on phone still showed music!
I manually manage music on the phone myself, never ticked syncing etc. Wiped all the music off phone, and started again. This worked once, and now has reverted back to showing less songs on the phone, but now appears to be re-adding the songs again when I've just connected it to add more music.
itunes didn't appear to have a problem when my ipod was connected. I'm loathed to reconnect now, as I have my entire music collection on there, and do not want that to be half deleted etc.
If anyone can help, that'd be appreciated.

hiya!
I'll try another cable, but I think I see a trip to the apple store in my near future. =(
take your cable in to be checked, too.
i was a little mysterious in my post earlier. but what i'm wondering about is a weird silent version of one of these errors:
iTunes displays a -69 error when syncing iPod
-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" error syncing iPod in iTunes
... i have seen a case where it turned out that a corrupt song file was causing the entire computer (not just itunes) to freeze up in the way you're describing (instead of returning a -69 or one of the other error messages).
what i think might be going on in these cases is that something strange happens during the "error reporting" phase of proceedings, and Windows gets desperately confused and goes into a sulk.
given that a bad cable can cause either the -36 or the -69, it's plausible that that could cause the silent version too ...
(this is all very hypothetical and conjectural, though. i could very well be barking up completely the wrong tree.)

Thank you. Nick

Okay, we'll try the technique from the following post. Be sure to be logged in to your usual user account when doing so. (Otherwise you'll be editing the wrong set of HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys.)

Does that clear up the compatibility message?

ITunes 9.2 Freezes using Windows 7 - Please Help!!

Hi, i'm currently using iTunes 9.0.0.70 on a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ430E laptop with Windows 7. I tried to upgrade my version of iTunes to 9.2 and everything seems to run through and install fine until i actually try and open the 9.2 version. What happens then, is when i double click the iTunes program shortcut, absolutely everything on my computer comes to a complete and utter halt. And by that i mean i cannot move my the cursor controlled by my mouse, pressing ctrl alt & del does nothing and i basically have to switch the laptop off by pressing the button until the whole thing switches off. I've tried running iTunes again once the restart has taken place but the same thing happens - complete freeze of everything on my computer. The little hard disk light stops flickering and nothing happens at all. So i uninstalled iTunes 9.2 and have now gone back to using 9.0.0.70.
Now, i've also got an iPhone 3GS with which i used the computer (PC tower) downstairs to install the OS4. As you can probably imagine, i am now in a position whereby i cannot connect my iPhone to iTunes 9.0.0.70 because it says it needs iTunes 9.2 to be able to do anything. There is where my problem truly lies. I do not mind using iTunes 9.0.0.70 but becasue all of my music, media etc is on my laptop, it now means my iPhone is rendered pretty much useless because iTunes does not and will not recognise it because it has OS4 and needs iTunes 9.2 to be able to sync to my phone.
I need to be able to install iTunes 9.2 but every bloody time i do so, it freezes up when i try to open the program and i cannot sync my iPhone cos the only iTunes i can use is 9.0.0.70!!
Can anyone please help me with this!?????

A 652?
Some digging at Microsoft answers indicated that this can sometimes be associated with trouble with the Windows Installer. Does the following technique help?
+I followed the following steps (found on a goggle search) and tehn installed the updates+
+1 - Navigate to "Services and Applications" in Computer Management. (right click on Computer and click Manage) DO THIS UNDER LOGIN WITH ADMINISTRATOR RIGHTS.+
+2 - Expand the Services and Applications+
+3 - Click on Services+
+4 - In the right side of window sort by Name and go down to Windows Installer. By default the start up type will be set to Manual. (You will notice that the status will read 'Started' even though you know that it is not really running)+
+5 - Right click on it and select properties+
+6 - In the middle of the popup box you will see Startup Type. Use the drop down arrow and select 'Disabled' and click apply.+
+7 - Close out and reboot. The service is now set to disabled so on reboot it will not still think it has been started. Now follow the above steps again and select 'Manual' and click apply and close out the Computer Management screen.+
