You enter the incorrect screen-lock passcode ten time or more. However, I do not know why you would like to do that.

How I finally fixed my frozen 3g ipod after the ipod internal manager error

My problem started after I formatted the ipod from FAT32 to NTFS. Sure it seemed to work for a bit, but then it froze and my computer would not recognise it at all. I got the sad face on the ipod and it would not respond to iTunes and neither could I apply the ipod updater to restore it back to its factory settings. If I tried to do an ipod update all I got was the ipod internal manager error. It also did not appear as a drive under disk management in XP. I also tried to reset by pressing the menu and play/pause keys together. I could see that it would reboot but then it would get stuck at the smiley face stage and nothing more would happen. I could still hear the disk spinning inside, but it continued to stay stuck.
I discovered my solution by accident but my ipod is now working again and is fully functional.
First of all, my ipod is 2 years old and does NOT have a warranty with it anymore. The solution requires that the ipod be opeded up so you have to decide if you want to void your warranty if you still have one. By the way, the local Apple repair centre said that unless it was under warranty they were not interested in doing anything with it. They suggested buying a new one!!
Ok here's what I did.
First of all, the ipod needs to be opened up. Here's a good link to have a look at, and in fact discusses replacing the hard drive anyway.
http://www.notpopular.com/blog/comments.php?blogID=63 Thanks to Josh Highland for writing the blog in the first place.
I used a couple of guitar picks to open the case to avoid scratching the casing.
Once the casing is open, detach the hard drive from its connector. At this stage you may need to toggle the ipod hold switch to "on" to make the ipod start up. After it's done this, press and hold the menu and press/play buttons together to force a reset. Once it's gone through this routine, plug the hard drive back into its connector whilst the ipod is still on. I found that by doing this, it forced the hard drive out of its frozen state. What this did was to cause my computer to recognise it as a drive. Yippee. I plugged the ipod back to the pc via the cable. The next i did was to run an ipod updater on the ipod. This caused the ipod to be restored to its factory settings and also formatted the drive back to FAT32. I used the original ipod updater that I got on the CD with the ipod. I then re-assembled the ipod.
Ok, so I ended up losing all of my songs and playlist on the ipod, but it's easy to transfer tham back to the ipod, and it's way cheaper than having to buy a new ipod.
My ipod now works the way it used too.

Yes, you are correct. I did disconnect the battery
before it finally worked. Honestly, I'm not sure if
that made any difference. It did the same thing
(folder with exclamation and then apple support
address) after I took the thing apart (which was easy
but I would not recommend it). It was a day later
that it finally formatted. The key is to get
the ipod to format however you can. After that it's
a simple matter of reinstalling the software. Which
I had been trying from the "Administrative Tools" and
it would never complete a format. In any event, all
of this WAS caused by the 2006-01-10 updater.
I too had trouble getting the ipod into "disk mode"
but keep trying when ever the apple icon appears on
the screen. Just keep pressing the center button and
the play/pause button at the same time. Each time I
put it into "disc mode" it took many trys. Good luck!
Any tips on how to "pry open" the iPod without destroying the casing? I have a 15Gb touchwheel model.
Also, I may as well ask this inadvance. Where is the battery and what does it look like?

How can I make the ipod stop itself after playing one song?

How can I make the ipod stop itself after playing one song?

When playing a song, are the controls at the top of the screen there? (Genius, Shuffle, Loop?)
If not, tap the center of the page once to expose them
now keep tapping the circle on the left part of the exposed controls untill a one (1) appears...

If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
     If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
     below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
     simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
     same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
     1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
     2. Connect your device to your computer.
     3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
     4. Select the Summary tab.
     5. Select the Restore option.
     6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
         option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
         necessary to create another.
     7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
         you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
     8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
         logo while starting up:
           After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
          to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
          iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
          you see "iPhone is activated."
     9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
          backup to restore, then restore as New.
If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.
If you really do need to put it in recovery mode (DFU):
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
   1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
       other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
   2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
       until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
              * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
       device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below,
       let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
       charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
       When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

How can I sync the ipod touch with windows 7 64 bit

How can I sync the ipod touch with Outlook on windows 7 64 bit?

I'm having the same problem with Windows 7, iTunes has been spotty about recognizing my iPod Touch. Now that I've updates Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (June 2011), It won't complete a sync or a restore at all on either of my Windows 7 computers.
I have gone through every troubleshooter action recommended by Apple Support, and have not been able to improve the situation at all.
I took my Touch to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store after trying and failing to complete a restore while troubleshooting, and it restored just fine from a Mac. Unfortunately, it now gives me an error meesage (Incompatible device) half way through an attempted sync, or iTunes simply freezes.
I even tried removing the Windows SP1, but that was a mess, as my display went all whacky and iTunes crashed immediately upon startup.
The Windows 7 OS ***** in general, particularly with compatibility issues, and not just for Apple products.
Does anyone know how to remedy this situation?
I'm so frustrated and have wasted so much time on this issue that I'm going to throw it all out the window!

How do you fix the ipod when its not playing the music right when it makes noise

Hi Nicole,
Try resetting it (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). The Home screen should redisplay after the reset is complete.
Cheers,

How do I delete the Ipod folder cache?? (in ilife '08)

just got an ipod and thought it would be fun to have all my pictures on it... not knowing that itunes makes a complete copy of all my pictures (25gb) in iphoto: iTunes constructs a photo database on your hard drive in order to make photo syncing fast when you add new photos in the future.
now this completely ate all my reserve hard drive space on my laptop and now I don't want pictures on my ipod...so I deleted them... but the itunes photo database still exists on the hard drive of my laptop... not giving me back the 25gb of hard drive space I really need!
someone helped me to find the following link:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300225
but when I search the folder ipod folder cache I get the same folder as iPhoto Library,
this is what I get: users/me/pictures/iphoto Library
when I click it to open my iphoto opens...
so how can I delete the Ipod folder cache with iphoto '08 7.1.1

I found the answer....
go to the folder of your pictures, then either right click (or ctrl + left mouse) on iphoto library then click show pakket, then you will find the Ipod folder cache which then can be deleted...
