HT1363 My ipod click wheel will not go into disk mode.  All I get is the red circle with the X in it

The only thing my ipod will do is display the red circle with the X in it.  I can not put it in disk mode, it won't work.  It's the 160 GB classic with the click wheel.  Is there anything else I can do to make it work again?

If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode, the Hard Drive is likely damaged and beyond repair. You'll probably want to have it replaced either by Apple or a third party service center.
Here are Apple's repair prices.

  • Apple logo remains on IPOD screen and will not go into Disk Mode or Reset

    My IPOD Mini is just showing the apple logo. I tried performing the procedures in the help section of the website. The IPOD will not go into Disk Mode! Is there another way to solve the problem without having to pay for expensive repairs?

    When ever I try to put it into disk mode it will either not go into disk mode for a few seconds or it will not go into disk mode at all.

  • 20G iPod will not go into disk mode

    Hopefully someone can help.
    I have a 2.5 year old 20g iPod with black / white screen.
    I have the unhappy icon showing on the screen. I have tried the 5R's with no success and have been advised to go into disk mode in order to restore via iPod updater etc.
    I cannot achieve disk mode and my PC (and other will not recognise).
    It also makes a clicking noise booting up, surely the hard drive cannot be faulty after such a relativly short time.
    Any help is much appreciated..........Dave

  • Under Windows 7, 64-bit, Firefox intermittently will not open a new window - all I get is a grey screen, with a tiny part of my homepage displayed in the top left corner of the screen.

    The problem began after a recent Firefox update. Occasionally, when I try to open a new Firefox window, all I get is a grey screen with a tiny section of my homepage visible in the top left corner of the screen. NOTE: Firefox stores all of these aborted attempts, as, whenever I close it and then re-open it, the first time I open a new window it automatically opens all of the windows that had originally failed to open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == on or about June 26, 2010

    Got the exact same problem aswell, finally fed up with it now as i just started up firefox and 14 new windows opened because of this bug, luckily my computer can handle them but someone with a slower processor it would have been a nightmare, needs fixing ASAP.
    Reverting back to 3.6.3 until this issue is solved. (link for anyone wanting to do the same below)

  • Ipod clicker wheel will not work!!

    My ipod i had for about a 9 months worked fine until the other day the wheel is not working ive tried the menu and center to restart it never worked wheel still is broken!!!please help!!!

    try this to reset it:
    To reset iPod:
    1 Toggle the Hold switch on and off (slide it to HOLD and then back again).
    2 Press and hold the Menu and Center buttons for at least 6 seconds, until the
    Apple logo appears.
    If iPod won’t turn on or respond
    Â Make sure the Hold switch is not set to HOLD.
    Â The iPod battery might need to be recharged. Connect iPod to your computer or to
    an Apple iPod Power Adapter and let the battery recharge. Look for the lightning
    bolt icon on the iPod screen to verify that iPod is receiving a charge.

  • My ipod nano click wheel will not work - Ipod works when docked on mobile speakers from remote control

    My ipos Nano click wheel will not work, however when it is docked on mobile speakers it will work from the remote control.

    If it continues to malfunction after a restore, it's probably bad hardware.
    I'd recommend making a Genius Bar appointment. They'll probably give you a couple options: Replace it with an identical model for a discounted price, or trade it in for recycling and get 10% off a new iPod.

  • I have a mac pro wich will not open windows in boot camp i get to the two options select windows but iyt will not load can you help please

    i have a mack pro which will not open in windows from boot camp get to the two options and select windows drive but it will not open can you help Please

    Hi there, Well, i thing i might have had the same problem (if you dont mean the selecting part, then try keyboad with usb and without if u dont have a macbook pro or so), i did the same and after selecting windows it said "No bootable disk" or " no boot disk" or something like that and the installer wont start when i was trying to install via CD/DVD.
    The sulution is to use 2 usb-drives, one for the support drivers from apple and one for the windows it self after burning the CD/DVD to the usb on a PC using the windows own tools and creating a ISO file.
    (there might be problems whit CD/DVD install sometimes)
    The ISO file on a own USB is the most importat thing!! (and even apple and windows didnt know that but me and a technikal support guy from the store i bought it managed to fix it after like 4 days )
    Hope it work now mate!

  • Are you ready : G4 MDD 1.25 DP FW400 will not go into Target Mode.

    G4 MDD 1.25 DP FW400 will not go into Target Mode.....for migration assistant.
    Shuts down every time I try either using "T" on startup or using the Boot Drive panel. G5 1.8DP I'm trying to migrate to shows up on the G4. Essentially, the FW400 ports are working in both directions as long as the G4 is not in target mode.
    Ran Diskwarrior on hard drive
    Reset PMU
    Reset PRAM and NVRAM
    AHT test passed
    Moved hard drive from ATA100 to the ATA66
    No data cables plugged in

    Hi! make sure the G4 drive is either jumpered as the master drive and on the end of the ribbon OR if it's jumpered cable select that it is in the master position on the end of the ribbon. FWTDM won't work with the drive in the slave position. Tom

  • Ipod Classic wheel will not sync with ITunes 11.0.4.4

    My IPod classic wheel will no longer sync with the ITunes program on my Windows XP system. When plugged in with cord, the IPod acts as if it is syncing. ITunes shows the eject button for the IPod, but it isn't recognized as a device by ITunes. Our IPad and IPhones will sync.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Would appreciate any help you have. I had just reloaed my entire ITunes library after losing everything except what was purchased but didn't think that should be a reason for the IPod to quit syncing. HELP!
