My ipod stopped working a few years ago, it said i had to connect to itunes to restore, as i then got an iphone i never bothered to sort it, I am now trying to and hwne i connect to itunes it says it must be restored, After ive restored it nothing happens, at first it says "ipod has been restored and is restarting, it will appear in the itunes window once it has restarted" so i wait but nothing happens and eventually it comes up with the same message telling me the ipod needs to be restored?

Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

  • Anyone having issues syncing iPhone with Microsoft Outlook 2007?  iTunes says it is syncing but it will not update calendar or contacts.  It just stopped working a few weeks ago.

    Anyone having issues syncing iPhone 3GS with Microsoft Outlook 2007?  iTunes says it is syncing but it will not update calendar or contacts.  It just stopped working a few weeks ago.

    I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only person struggling with exact issue.  I've rebooted, upgraded, re-installed, pulled all my hair out as nothing works.
    The biggest dissapointment with this thread is that nobody seems to have responded with a solution.
    And yes I've managed to pull together enough intellegence to tick the box "sync to outlook" in iTunes - still nothing man.
    Definately does not sync from phone to PC and is very hit and miss on PC to Phone.  In other words now running 2 seperate calendars - Not helpful Jan.

  • Zoom-in, zoom-out pinch gesture stopped working a few days ago for no apparent reason.

    Zoom-in, zoom-out pinch gesture stopped working a few days ago for no apparent reason. I went to Preferences>Gestures, turned off the selection, turned it on again, rebooted, etc. HELP. Any suggestions?

    Try Settings>General>Siri>Off. Restart the phone then go back and turn Siri on again. It can take a few minutes for Siri to totally activate again.

    Photoshop Elements community,
    I downloaded the Photoshop Elements 7 package to my Windows Vista computer a few years ago. I just bought a new computer with Windows 8. Can I download the same package onto a second computer? And is it even compatible with Windows 8? Thanks so much for your help.

  • Firefox stopped working a few months ago. Re-installation does not work. Help

    Firefox suddenly stopped working. I have tried uninstalling numerous times during the last six months without any success. It appears to download and puts an icon on the desktop but clicking it does not connect me to the internet. Google Chrome and Explorer work but I prefer Firefox. Any ideas to solve this. I am running Microsoft Vista

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Why did mine stop working a few months ago? The Sys Light flashes red constantly - even after hours of being powered up.

    I bought this last year - early summer. It worked great at first.
    Sometime during the winter it stopped working with a constantly flashing red Sys light. I have tried many times to start it up, same issue even when leaving it powered up for hours. What is my next step in trouble shooting this issue?

    Call Verizon Wireless Customer Service at (800) 922-0204 and verify the device is registered and working properly from there end. Good luck!

  • I bought photoelements 7 a few years ago, now I want to use and can not. i don't want to upgrade

    I purchased Photo elements 7 a few years ago and it is sufficient for my needs. but now i can not get into the program, I have account number and password. i am not interested in upgrading to version 12

    In your Adobe A/c did you look under 'My Orders.? That's where you'll find the download link.
    If it's not there, you can download PSE7 from a link in the comments here - http://prodesigntools.com/direct-download-links-for-lightroom-3-and-photoshop-elements-8.h tml/comment-page-1#comment-2186. Make sure you also read the linked instructions. Follow those very important instructions EXACTLY or you will likely encounter authorisation errors or download the latest version instead.
    You will still need your serial number.  You should be able to findthis  in your Adobe A/c under 'My Products'.

    Hi
    You could order the Full Retail Version of OS X (Black DVD with a silver X on it). Regarding always starting up in Open Firmware, in this thread a bloke had the same problem until he disconnected his peripherals before restarting. See if the entire thread helps:

  • 5th Gen ipod stopped working , connected to Alpine CDA117

    Out of nowhere the ipod stopped working when hooked directly to the Alpine CDA117.
    It worked this morning when I pulled out of the driveway and drove to my shop . I did not unplug it when I arrived, it stayed in the car hooked up as it does often.
    When I got back in the car about 2 hours later it was not working . It recognizes the ipod , shows the song , playlist etc but no volume and it's not "playing" so it's sort of on "pause", but not showing that it really is "paused"
    Apple looked at it , thought there might be some dust on the contacts , cleaned it , tried it in the store and it worked fine both with earbuds and through speakers.
    It works in my wife's car via the same hookup.
    My wife's ipod works in my car hooked up just as mine would be .
    The guy at Best Buy who hooked it up , hooked his up and his worked fine.
    Firmware is up to date .
    I literally did nothing to it once I arrived and my shop and then got back in the car 2 hours later.
    Help me !
    I have a 3 hour ride up to the Berkshires on Saturday and will go bonkers without my music .

    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 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.

  • Ipod stopped working with iTrip

    My iPod stopped working with my iTrip very mysteriously. I left it in the car for 2 hours (as I always do at work) and it worked when I left and wouldn't work when I went to drive home. I've replaced the iTrip and know that it works with another iPod (identical to mine and bought at the exact same time).
    Does anyone know if there's way to fix this?

    I just started having issues with my iPod as well. It is paired with my JVC receiver through an iPod adapter. I can normally control my iPod through the JVC once it is connected, but the last few days I have had to control it through the iPod itself. The screen on the receiver says connecting, but never does unless I do manually.( pressing play on the iPod). I can still see song titles, but no control. IE pause, next or previous songs. Nothing seems to work, and have treid powering both off then back on. Is this an update issue that wont let them pair anymore? I also tried a friends iphone and seemed to work fine with the JVC, so the receiver is not the issue.
