Hi! REALLY REALLY NEED HELP WITH IPOD!

Hi,
I need to know if my ipod is damaged or if this is just a quirk. I have a fifth gen. video ipod. All of the sudden my ipod stopped playing all songs and videos that were purchased from itunes. I have no idea why. I looked up on the internet and it said something about installing the latest version of itunes so I did that. After I did that it then erased everything from my ipod. However, everything that was on my ipod still shows up in itunes when I plug it in like it is all still there, however, nothing shows up on the actual ipod. Is there something wrong with my ipod and how do I fix this??
Thanks so much,
Maria

Really basic - Need help with autotrace result interpretation

I'm trying to look into database tunning in order to check efficency of my sql statments and I think AUTOTRACE is the first thing to look into.
I created two identical tables containing 250.000 rows. First one has no index the other one does
SET AUTOTRACE ON
SELECT *FROM TEST_250000
WHERE CUSTOMER_NO > 241000;
Plan hash value: 4257243307
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 15353 | 2623K| 750 (2)| 00:00:10 |
|* 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL | TEST_250000 | 15353 | 2623K| 750 (2)| 00:00:10 |
Statistics
0 recursive calls
0 db block gets
2687 consistent gets

390399 bytes sent via SQL*Net to client
433 bytes received via SQL*Net from client
12 SQL*Net roundtrips to/from client
1 sorts (memory)
0 sorts (disk)
My questions are following:
1) Am I assuming right that the time to execute first query is 0.2 sec and cost is 1500, while the other is 0.05 seconds and 164. Do you just simply add up ?
2.) What does the cost stand for? I mean what is the unit of it?
3.) There is a substantial difference in consistent gets. I found a definition ( gets number of times a consistent read was requested for a block). Could someone explain me what this means and why is it so different in two queries.
4.) What is the Plan hash value about?
Know it's a lot, but any help appreciated.
PS: I'm posting this to general, but is there a forum specializing in tunning?

Need help with Ipod demensions

I had a 15gb 3rd gen. I need to replace it with an ipod of the same exact size. If I have to get another 15gb that is fine. I also have a 30gb 3rd gen and it is thicker. I read somewhere that the 3rd gen 40gb is the same size as the 15gb?? Can I get a 4th gen? It can be a little thinner but the outside dimensions need to be the same. Any help would be appreciated.

why do you need an ipod the exact same size as an old ipod...? HuH?...xXxmartinxXx

NEED HELP WITH IPOD 4TH GEN

I have an ipod touch 4th generation I forgot my password. Every time I try to restore it, it seems as tho its going to work but then comes up with some thing saying THAT I NEED MY PASSWORD. I have no idea what else to do. PLEASE HELP!!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Need help with Ipod/FM transmitter use in Europe !!!

HELP! I need to know if I can use my ipod and my Griffin FM Transmitter to listen to tunes and charge the player with a car in Europe (Germany, Italy, etc.)
HP Windows XP

It appears that FM transmitters have been passed for use recently by Germany, Switzerland and Iceland. When or if the UK or any other European countries will allow them I don't know.

I need help with ipod

Need help with ipod & itunes

Hey everyone.
I just got a ipod video and i went to my friends house and put a whole bunch of songs on it. Well i want those songs on my ipod video onto my itunes on my home computer but i cant seem to get them on without over writting the songs on my ipod video with the songs on my itunes already, which i dont want to happen because i dont want to loose any of the songs on my ipod video. Someone please help me.

1) go back to your friends house and put all the song files you want into a folder on his computer.
2) plug in your ipod to his computer and enable disk use.
3) then open it up from "my computer", you'll see a few folders like "notes", "contacts" etc.
4) drag and drop the folder you created with all the song files. Don't put this in one of the ipod's pre-made folders.
5) go home, open your ipod again from disk use and select the folder you made with all the song files. drag and drop this anywhere you want in your computer (I suggest putting it with where you store more music)
Lastly you need to import these songs, open itunes and select File>Add Folder to Library. you will then select the folder of music from your friends house, wherever you dropped it.
After you have added the songs to your library you are free to delete ONLY the folder you created in your iPod (with the music files from your friend).
Hope this helps

Hey please read need help with ipod

how do I set my playlist so if i hook up my ipod it only downloads my songs but if anyone else hooks up there ipod there songs won't come into my playlist? PLEASE HELP
Message was edited by: Alissa-55

first of all, i'm not sure if i understand your question fully but i believe you just want your OWN playlist so that you can put the songs YOU want on it and no one ELSE can put their music in it?
if that's the case, you just need to make your own playlist on your ipod.
open up itunes and near the top, select "file".
select "new playlist".
this new playlist should appear on the left-hand side of itunes under 'playlists' right at the bottom. when it appears, it will read 'untitled playlist'. click it once then again, so that you are able to name the playlist to your liking.
when it comes to putting songs into your own playlist, you can drag any song from your itunes library. choose a song from your itunes library and drag it over to your designated playlist til you see your playlist is outlined with blue and your cursor has a plus sign just below it.
hope that helps.

SORRY and i dont know how to move it SORRY
Windows XP

So wouldyou recommend that I update? It was made for use with an att sim but was unlocked for use with a tmobile sim... I just so happen to have att. So the phone being locked for att wouldn't be a bother for me. I've just heard of people getting sim card read errors after updating, so I was wondering if I should even bother.

Need Help with iPod Version

I want to put Linux in my iPod but I need to "unUpdate" it to v 1.0 (its updated to 1.2 right now). I tried alot of stuff but never works...
I got the 20gb iPod photo (the generation just before Video iPod)
When I use "restore", my iPod stay at V1.2
Could someone help me please?
Is there any way to unUpdate an iPod?
Thanks for your help.

See you can have an older version iPod updater here
http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
By the way, I suggest you do not put Linux on you iPod, as you will loss the warranty immediately. Also when your iPod get into trouble, it is not easy to revert back

Need help with iPod updater

I recently downloaded the iPod updater for my iPod Nano, but everytime i try to open it, it doesnt come up. I tried downloading the iPod updater a second time, but still the same results. I click on it, and the little hour glass shows up as if its about to open but then it just goes away and the app doesnt open. If someone can help me with this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

Just out of curiosity, did you download the correct version of the updater - i.e., the Windows version versus the Mac version? Just had to ask.

NEED HELP WITH IPOD

Hello all!! Need some help here. When I plug my ipod into the computer...my Ipod no longer shows up in the "source" window on itunes. A "do not disconnect screen" will flash on my Ipod for hours on end.
I have already reset my Ipod. Dont know what to do next.
Thanks friends!

How to I go through the warranty service process.
If you purchased from a non Apple store recently (~ a few weeks), I'd take it back and get another.
You can take it to an Apple retail store or request service here -> iPod Service Request
I mean i know you can request service, but you have to pay for that.
If it is within 180 days of purchase, you do not have to pay for anything. If it is after 180 days but before the one year warranty is up, it's ~$29 for shipping.
