* HELP, WON'T DISCONNECT *

I turned my itunes to Manual, now, itunes says it's done uploading but my ipod still says "do not disconnect" The "enable disk use" button is grey so i can't uncheck it. HELP!

If it is done updating the music just unplug the iPod
and it should be fine... Just don't do it whilst it
is updating music...
Chris
No. I wouldn't just disconnect it when it says Do Not Disconnect without checking a few things. That is more of a last resort.
Anyhow, have you ejected it from iTunes?

And the reason that you cannot disable the disk use is because you are manually updating. Disk Use is automatically enabled.

What do I do with failed restore and an iPod that won't disconnect?

It's in disk mode and won't disconnect from the computer after a failure to restore...
help?

If you put your computer on standby, wait about 5 minutes and then start the computer back up - does that work?

Please help my ipod disconnected from the Internet and wont reconnect and i did the right password

- Do other devices still connect to the network?
- Does the iPod connect to other networks?
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: 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 the router.

IPod mini won't disconnect

After going through h--- with this ipod and getting it back up and running.....NOW it won't disconnect!! It did disconnect once, because I checked to make sure it was actually working. But, now it keeps saying that it cannot disconnect because some of it's files are being used by another application. I have no idea what this other application could be....any ideas or advice will be greatly (understatement!) appreciated! Thank you!

Easy way. Reset the iPod, then disconnect when you see the Apple logo.
Another way. Hold ctr-alt-del to bring up the Windows Task Manager. Go to the Processes tab and look for iTunesHelper.exe and iPodService.exe. Select them and hit the End Process button. Close the Windows Task Manager Window and try ejecting the iPod via the safely remove hardware method.
  If you are still having problems you can try one more thing. Right click on the My Computer icon and select Manage from the list of actions. Go to the Services and Applications item and from there the services item. Double click on the services item to bring up the list of services currently installed on your computer. Look for the iPod Service and double click on it. From the new window select Stop. Now try again to eject using the safely remove hardware option.
McAfee ActiveScan security software also can cause a problem, and if you have this you might want to try turning it off and see if the iPod then ejects correctly.
  If all else fails shut down the computer and disconnect the iPod.

Won't disconnect after syncing

iPod won't disconnect after sync. Says it's in use by another program. How do I find out what program is using it and why?

A background anti-virus scanner is one possible culprit as are other programs that might scan the drive when it connects such as Google/Windows desktop search tools. You should also make sure all Explorer windows/dialog boxes are closed, e.g a folder view of the iPod or a dialog saying something like. "This disk contains different types of items, what would you like Windows to do...?" Use ALT-Tab to cycle between windows as you may not even spot this one is there... it can open up behind iTunes without any other sign on screen, particularly in Vista. You may even need to quit iTunes before you can eject the disk if it has not closed files properly. Your milage may vary, but I often have to wait up to a minute after closing iTunes for it to announce that it is saving it's library and it may not be until this point that it properly closes all of it's open files.

Fax modem won't disconnect

After sending faxes, the modem occassionally won't disconnect the phone line, keeping the line engaged until the computer is restarted. Even the "reset printing system" function doesn't correct this problem.
Has anyone else had this happen with the Mac mini and Panther, and how did you resolve it?
Thank you!

This is happening on my G4 Powerbook Aluminium) with Tiger. Extremely disappointing, seeing as the last time Apple had any decent faxing software was with ExpressFax that came with the PowerBook Duo Express Modem (circa 1994!!).
It would seem that whenever a fax is sent and the recipient doesn't answer, the modem doesn't hang up. When the modem is forced to hang up (ie by deleting the fax job or resetting the fax queue), it will not allow connections from either the fax queue or internet connect.
The only way I've been able to solve it is with a full, cold restart. Surely this is a bug - and surely it's high time Apple solved the whole faxing mess (cronically bad execution, bad ergonomics and low reliability) for good!

LabView help won't open

I have been trying to open the search LabView help and the help won't open. A window appears but then it won't load. I haven't done anything different to my computer, this just started happening suddenly. The whole program then usually crashes when I try to close the help after a while.
Any ideas?

Does this happen no matter when you try to open LabVIEW help? Even if you click the LabVIEW Help button on the Getting Started page?
Does Context Help (Help >> Show Context Help) still work?
What version of LabVIEW are you using?
Also, can you open LabVIEW Help or any other help file externally? LabVIEW Help can be found in Program Files >> National Instruments >> LabVIEW x.x

Please help : itunes download disconnect my internet and TV box !

Please help : itunes download disconnect my internet and TV box. How can I fix this ?

Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method.
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
You could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you review your account without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054
If not, and as you say that you don't have a credit or debit card (though not all debit cards appear to be accepted anyway) then you will need to create a new account, and use the instructions on the about 'create an iTunes ...' page when creating it.

Hello Herbert
Yes, i use only one client (iphone) for this profile to connect on my vpn. On a later post i wrote, i used this command "crypto ipsec security-association idle-time" and set it for 2 minutes. I thought that this solved the issue i had until yesterday! The same exact thing happend again!! This time i logged off from easy vpn server normaly and when i tried again i saw the same error message on the debug output!
I noticed from the command "show crypto eli" that my router allows 100 ipsec-sessions. So what i did was to log-in log off 100 times to see if that was the problem. Pathetic i know, took me over 10 mins but i wanted to see why? even though i logged off normaly why i couldn't access vpn server. Thankfully this was not the problem.
So far i don't have a clue! This is very frustrating thus i've spent many hours with no solution. Last night when this happend locked me out from my network over 10 hours until i got back home and reload the router (vpn led was off). There's no other way to get over it.
I have many issues with easy vpn client from iphone but this is the most critical for me so far. Now i've issued the command "crypto ipsec security-association idle-time 120 default" and hopefully it does something.
Finally i don't think giving more space would solve this. IPs get somehow stuck and never released no matter address space i give.
Thanx for your time

Keyboard won't disconnect

We have 3 wireless keyboards, 2 iMacs and 2 Macbooks. I'd like to disconnect one keyboard from the old macbook and use it with the new macbook, however my macbook just keeps saying "No Keyboard Found." So, I'm unable to disconnect since it's not displaying a keyboard to disconnect. In testing the iMacs, I see they do the same thing. They are infact connected because I am typing this right now with one. Any help would be appreciated.

I also have the same problem. If you turn off Bluetooth, the virtual keyboard won't come back, especially if you're using Bluetooth speakers as well. Heck, it even rebooted my iPad when I tried this.
I'm very tempted to dump my iPad + Logitech Keyboard if this doesn't get resolved in a timely manner.

Won't Disconnect

Hi
I have a Zen Stone Plus Software version .03.0,
I don't know if this has been discussed since new to this forum, But i been having problems for along time now.
I cannot get My Zen Stone plus to disconnect, Everytime i click on the icon to disconnect player i keep getting this message
The player cannot be stopped right now. Try stopping the player again later.
How do i get this to disconnect? most of the time i just have to unplug it from back of my computer which is hooked in the USB Slot or after i turn off computer then take it out.. using Windows XP SP3.
Help and thanks for any replies..

Have you made sure in your preferences that iTunes is set to autosync with your iPod? If it's set to manual, you'll have to drag and drop files downloaded from iTunes. If it's set to autosync, and your iPod is constantly plugged into your computer while you're downloading from iTunes, then the songs won't be added to your iPod until you click on "update iPod" on the file menu. As for the not disconnecting problem, it's quite common. I don't know what you're officially supposed to do, but I find that it's OK just to unpllug the iPod if the iTunes screen isn't showing the iPod in the source menu. The iPod should reset itself, then carry on working fine. If not, you can soft reset it again by holding down the menu and select buttons for 5 seconds.

My phone won't disconnect a call.

For the last month, my iPhone 4 will not disconnect from a phone call unless I power the phone all the way off. For the last 6 months or more I've been having trouble with the phone constantly dropping calls, but now it won't let me end a call. I push end call and it just hangs there and it still ticks away my minutes until I power off the whole phone. Any ideas? I tried updating the software, but that didn't help.

What are you asking?
You've posted in the iPad forum, yet seem to be asking about an iPhone?
What is "mph one call" mentioned in the topic title?
You say the iPhone is disconnected but you still get calls and texts on it? What exactly is it disconnected from? Power? Cell service? Wifi?
iCloud isn't compatible with Shamdung phones, so there's nothing to turn off.

IMac Help - won't start up in OSX, starts to text...

I was wiping my hard drive so that I could give away my old 20" white iMac G5. It worked fine the first time using the OSX Installation disk, but someone told me I should do it several times to be sure to remove all the data in the binary. So I did it a second time and that worked fine too. I decided to do it a third time so that I could put the new person's info onto the computer and I got a disk error during the re-install. It asked me if I wanted to "try again" so I clicked yes, but something bad must have happened...
Now the computer won't start up in OSX and it won't boot from the disk (even if I hold down the C key). When it starts up, first I get a gray screen with the apple, then I have a quick flask of a tiny file folder with a question mark, then a quick flask of the same file folder but this time with the Mac face graphic, then the screen goes black and there is a bunch of white text. I can post the text if it will help - at the very end it says something like: localhost:/ root#
I tried calling apple and they just told me to turn off the mouse and keyboard and try again - didn't work. I have tried to boot in safe mode, I have tried to reboot from the start up disk (it just ejects the disk), I have tried to reset the PRAM, nothing is working. I do not have any peripherals other than the mouse and the keyboard (I had to go out and buy a new wired keyboard today just to push the C button to try to start up from disk since the wireless keyboard wasn't being recognized).
I have searched all the support docs and nothing seems to work or be just right. I am not an idiot, so if I need to type in a bunch of code that would be fine, just tell me what to do! Otherwise, I am hauling this beast into the so-called Genius Bar.
Please help!

So hooked the iMac up to my MacBookPro as a firewire target disk and ran a disk utility on it overnight. It didn't fix the problem completely, but it didn't get worse. Now, instead of the black screen with white programming text, I get a gray screen with a flashing question mark (a file folder that flashes between the mac face and a question mark) this time it just keeps flashing (unlike before where it only appeared once).
I have tried resetting the PRAM, the NVRAM, and I have tried resetting the SMU (thanks for the advice, Barry, I was hopeful about that one!) but nothing is working. It won't let me start from a disk, even though I have checked the disk in another computer and it works fine. I am thinking that the computer has lost the ability to recognize the disk drive.
Is there any way to re-install the operating system remotely (via my MacBookPro or anything else)?
Thanks again for any advice!

URGENT HELP - DO NOT DISCONNECT!!

Hi all.
I've read the backposts on this and tried, but its not helped.
Just plugged my iPod in to update and it came up with the usual "do not disconnect" sign on the iPod, however iTunes did not recognise that the iPod had been plugged in.
Went through the menus to see if I could figure how to do it manually (couldn't), so just thought I'd try removing the iPod and see what happened, and its still sitting with the do not disconnect like it thinks its plugged in. This has been for almost 30 mins now and I'm worried its going to sit like that all night.
It doesn't respond to shutting it off or the menu keys etc etc and although its now not even plugged in its sitting like it thinks it is.
Any help??

You have 2 options, if you can't get the iPod to eject from iTunes. The first is the Windows "safely remove" hardware button which is at the bottom right of your desktop, the other is to simply shut down the computer. Please do not disconnect the iPod from your computer while the "do not disconnect" is flashing. You may be a high risk of disk damage on the iPod.

Help won't work

I am very sad my ipod won't work
maybe if anyone has any ideas on
how to help it

When you say it won't work, what exactly is going on? Is it not turning on at all? Is it not hooking up and loading content on your PC or what?
