  • Why itune unable to detect my 1st ipod

    Hello,
    I am using most update Itune under 64 bit Windows 7 , Why the iTune unable to detect my 1st iPOD ? The same system is working with my iPhone 4 ..

    - Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Did you do anything to the iPod since iTunes last saw the iPod?
    - Presume you used the same USB port and cable that works with the iPhone

    Dear sir/madam
    Please I'd be happy if we can claim where we are misleaded when buying the product : The retailer or seller should know what they are selling ... For example I asked earphone for my shuffle ipod 3rd generation showing it but the they gave me an ear phone which just was like an ordinary earphone where I can't low and high the volume nor I can select the playlist ... Please read below

    I did checked the earphone there same time and found that I can't lower or high the volume from that new purchased earphone and even asked why and one of your senior staff said it might be the problem of my ipod shuffle's setting, Since the beginning of the time of purchase till I came to Nepal 4 days ago I didn't use the ipod because I'm not able to increase the volume and I didn't took my laptop with me while my visit there ...
    But when I try to restore my shuffle here ; even that doesn't works ... Today and yesterday when I checked my friend's earphone of ipod - it was working on my shuffle and my earphone also working in his classic ...
    I want to kindly request you since I showed my shuffle at the time of buying earphone there in Altek, San Martin AV in SAnta Cruz de la Sierra in Bolivia and asked I need the earphone for my ipod shuffle 3G It's not my fault ... Could you please ask the agents of apple here in Kathmandu to replace it with the working the right compatible earphone for me ...

  • Need help with ipod second generation (please)

    i just came across my ipod second generation... the real second generation, circa 2002 (approximately).  i can't find the cable.  kicking myself!  is there any way to get a cable, and subsequently, move my old school tunes onto my imac or ibook?

    You can purchase the necessary cable from here: http://www.powerbookmedic.com/iPod-Firewire-Cable-p-16912.html
    As for moving your iPod's data/content back to iTunes, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

  • I am unable to install the latest version of iTunes on window xp?

    I am unable to install the latest version of iTunes on window xp. I get "The application has failede to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem".

    This may be all we know, but the new discussions keep coming in, so I repaet my post of this evening:
    With all the discussion about problems with iTunes 11 for Windows, there is also now the problem of downloading the 11 install file at all. On 2 diff computers today, I have tried to download installer and it gets to "save file" then when clicked simply disappears. Nice magic trick, but not helpful to a long-time (and mostly happy til now) user of iTunes on Windows. If there are such serious problems with the installation and function of this "new" version, what the hex is Apple doing? A new corrected release? When? why all this mess wirth a program that has always worked? How about some answers Apple?

  • Does anyone know if the Apple Ipod 6th generation will play audio books from MP3 Format?

    Does anyone know if the Apple IPod 6th Generation will play Audio Books formated in MP3?  Thank you.

    It'll play MP3 files. Import them into an iTunes library and transfer them to it.

  • Does iMessage only work with the newest iPod Touch generation?

    Does iMessage only work with the newest iPod Touch generation or does it work with older ones as well?

    Any iPod Touch device that can be upgraded to iOS 5 will have iMessage. This means if you have a 3rd or 4th generation iPod Touch it will support iMessage.

  • My  iPod second generation 4.2.1 crashes all the time

    Hello,
    I've got an iPod touch second generation running 4.2.1 but he crashes a lot times. i've got no jailbreak and 1.9GB left.
    when he crash, he start up again or I see weird things that doesn't have to be there.
    I tried a soft-reset and restore, what can I do?
    Please help me.

    Restore as new to factory settings and start over. If there was an existing problem and you just restore from backup, the problem may return. Other than that your device is probably Outside of apples warranty period so it might be time to upgrade to a newer unit.

  • HT4972 When will the iPod second generation update to iOS 5 or 6 or at least 4.3?

    When will my iPod 2nd generation update to iOS 5 or iOS 6 or at least iOS 4.3?

    Never. If you need a newer iOS version, sell the iPod touch and put the money towards a newer device.

    Suggestion: UNcheck "Open iTunes when this iPod is attached" in Settings. Then EJECT and disconnect. Take it to your friend's computer and see IF it charges faster...
    IF it does, you need to understand why YOUR computer's USB port(s) don't supply sufficient power to charge your Shuffle.

  • Is there any way I can get rid of the noise my iPod makes when I plug it in to charge without turning the volume of the whole IPod (4th Generation) down?

    I have a 4th generation IPod touch. Today I downloaded the new iOS 6.0.1 and I have a question. Is there any way I can get rid of the noise when I plug it in to charge? I had it set that way before, and I can't seem to figure out how I did it. I found when I turned down the over all volume it gets rid of it, but I don't want to change the over all volume. Thanks so much for you help and Happy Holidays.

    If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.
