HT1349 My iPod is disabled and wont work help!!

Please help! It shows the plug arrow to itunes (connect to itunes) when I connect it, it says "Itunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes" I click restore it says "Contacting the iPod software update server..." then it just says with a red X "The iPod software update server could not be contacted." Any suggestions

Then see if anything here works:

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Ignore the reset and when it says plae the iPod in Recovery mode
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
For PC

or

If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and
RecBoot tip
RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
Installs blootware on PC too
- 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.

Ipod touch keeps giving me a blue screen and wont work, HELP!!!

So earlier today my ipod gave me a notification that a new ios software update was avaliable so i began the update. But during the update, i got impatient (like i always am -_-) and i decided to turn my ipod completely off by holding down the top and home buttons at the same time like an idiot........HUGE MISTAKE!! Now everytime i try and turn it on, all it does is show the logo and then it goes to a blue screen and the bluescreen fades out to white and stays that way. Each time i try and turn it off it keeps repeating this process. How can i fix this?? Will my ipod be like this forever? HELP :'(

HI.. i have the same issue... any 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.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 you are getting a network timpout during the restore
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

USB PORTS DISABLED AND WONT WORK FOR ANYTHING

MacBook Pro OS X (10.6.8)
the other day i had plug in a remote helicopter to our computer and came back and same the error message:
"Because a USB device was drawing too much power from your computer, one or more of your USB devices have been disabled.* To prevent damaging your computer, the USB device drawing too much power has been disabled. Other devices may also have been disabled. When you disconnect the device drawing too much power, your other USB devices will be enabled again"
First I unplugged the helicopter and tried plugging in my phone to charge....NOTHING! so i unplugged it and tried my ipod....NOTHING! maybe the cord? so i switched cords nope same stupid ****. I reset the computer (even doing a SMC reset). nothing works! Nothing shows up in Disk Utility when plugged in either. I've looked for videos, other forum, blogs, articles, plus i can't even use Apple Tech support over the phone cause my plan has expired and Apple loves charge so much for something they could fix real fast!
please help me i'm still trying everything as we speak!

My ipod is clicking and wont work

i need help, it clicks when the apple apears and while the sad ipod is up

Sounds like the hard drive died.
Return it, get it repaired.

My menu bars go invisible and wont work, Help please?

Ok, the problem is that the menu bar on the top of the screen, you know where it says "file" "Edit" "Image" etc. will not work. When I click on "file" the window that opens basically becomes see through and I'm not able to click on anything like "save". My main concern is my Photoshop as I have work to do in it, but the same thing happens with my Adobe Audition, Reader, and basically every other Adobe program. I'm really in a pickle here as I have to turn in 2 canvases by the end of today. Can someone please me fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a popssible display driver and/or resource problem.
What version of Photoshop are you running?
What operating system and video card do you have?
Have you rebooted, and does the problem recur after?
Is this issue reproducible or intermmittent?
Do you have any 3rd party plug-ins installed?

Since I have no idea which country you are in, I suggest you click on the Store button at the top of this page and then go to your country's store. There, you can find the prices of each and every model of iPod Touch in your country's currency.
16GB - £199
32GB - £249
64GB - £329
By all means take your broken iPod into an Apple store and see if there is any discount they can offer you.

You'll need to connect your iPod to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode and restore it using the instructions in this Apple support document.
