It solved the problem with my iPod.  Had the same issue as above since yesterday.  Thought my iPod broke.
This helps.  I've got back my iPod.  So happy...................

  • My flash update has been stuck at 30% for hours. Is there anything I can do to actually get it to download?

    I have been trying to download flash to watch an exam review and it has been stuck at 30% for hours. I tried restarting the download and it went to 30% and stopped again. I am using a Mac with the most up to date software available for it.

    This morning we resolved a problem that prevented Flash Player installations from completing for some of our Macintosh users.
    If you encountered this problem, please delete any previously downloaded Flash Player installer and either:
    1.)      Download the installer again from https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer
    2.)      Download the stand-alone installer from  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player_osx.dmg

    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps..
    But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work.

  • BF tried to update to ios6 on iphone 4 but crashed half way through saying it needed to plugged into iTunes and then restored so after it was 'restoring' he had an error message come up say to couldn't be restored....what should be do next?

    BF tried to update to ios6 on iphone 4 but crashed half way through saying it needed to plugged into iTunes and then restored so after it was 'restoring' he had an error message come up say to couldn't be restored....what should be do next as the phone is in a complete non working condition

    Spent hours trying everything suggested and finally this morning hit on a solution. iTunes must be run as an administrator. Even though you are logged into your PC as an administrator, using the iTunes shortcut does not make you an administrator in iTunes. I found this out by using the diagnostics in iTunes and reading through the results report.
    I am using Windows 7, so I clicked the start button and right clicked on iTunes and selected "Run as an adimistrator". The first restore attempt got the 4013 error. I then did the DFU thing, hold power and home buttons for 10 seconds, release power and continue holding home for 10 more seconds.
    iTunes gave me the restore message and I clicked it. I clicked the restore iPhone button and it started. The drivers loaded a couple of times. I got the apple logo with the progress bar and this time instead of disappearing, it started to fill in.
    End result, a successful restore to factory settings and a happy 14 year old.
    Hope this helps others.

  • I have moved to the country where my internet speed is slow.  I am running some auto updates that keep timing out half way through.  Can the time out be shut off to complete the update?

    I'm not sure about that. But what you could try is to set the Update Preference to "Manual" and try updating at a time when the Network may not be as busy, like late at night or early in the morning. 
    Just an idea.

  • I've downloaded the ios7 to my iphone but it didn't verify so I connected my iphone to itunes and updated it .. it's now stuck half way through saying 'updating iphone software' it's been like that for 40 mins .. should I be worried?

    I've downloaded the ios7 software to my iphone but it didn't let me install it over air so I connected my iphone to itunes and updated it .. it's now stuck half way through saying 'updating iphone software' it's been like that for 40 mins .. should I be worried?

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

    VoiceOver
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064
    If VoiceOver is on and you want to turn it off from the device instead of from iTunes, remember that a double-tap acts like a single tap and you need to use three fingers to scroll when VoiceOver is on:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.

  • Track purchased from iTunes stops half way through & Jumps to the next track on both computer & iPod

    Purchased album from iTunes. One track stops half way through & jumps to the next track on both computer & iPod.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the up

    I've tried to place an iphoto album order and it quits half way through the upload process.  A prompt comes up saying "iphoto quit unexepectedly".  It always quits at the same spot, page 17.  I've tried many times.  It worked last year when I made the same type of photo album.  Anyone have any ideas?  I have a MAC OS X 10.6.8
    thanks!

    What version of iPhoto?

  • HT2499 I inserted a brand new DVD and it quit half way through and gave me the "skipping over damaged area" message.

    I got this laptop refurbished from Apple in July. It was originally released in October 2011. I have watched DVD's on it previously, but lately, in the past 3 weeks, it's been pooping up the "skipping over damaged area" message. I put in a brand new DVD and half way through, it did it again, and I can't get past it. Any thoughts on what the problem may be?

    You can just open Terminal (in Utilities) and run the rm command (make sure you type it exactly) and then reboot.  With /.AppleSetupDone gone the system will think it is the the second part of an installation, i.e., after it installs and reboots and starts the Setup Assistant.  You will see the Welcome and music all over again and then you can go through the setup prompts again, this time specifying a password.

  • Migration assistant froze half way through me setting up my new MacBook and i can't reboot it?

    I'm trying to set up my MacBook Pro but my internet connection is pretty dodgy so i was half way through transferring my files with the migration assistant when on my PC it came up with an error message. I restarted it on the PC, only there is no option to restart it on the Mac so I'm not sure what to do now. Help?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    The only method to close Migration Assistant now is to hold the Power button until the computer turns off, and then, turn it on again. Maybe some of the files you wanted to transfer aren't on the MacBook, so you will have to start Migration Assistant again

  • Why do some of the songs I purchased from itunes cut out half way through?

    I've purchased a lot of music through itunes, and as I've been playing it, I've noticed that several of the songs stop half way through and just play silence for the last minute or two. This is very frustrating as I have spent hundreds of dollars buying music through iTunes. This occurs on all of my devices, iPhone 4, MacBook and iPad 2.

    I'm having this exact problem now with an iPhone 4 (not the 4S) and running software 6.1.3 with iTunes version 11.0.4.4. - The songs play fine in iTunes. In some instances I brought in the songs from CDs, in other instances I purchased from the iTunes store meaning I can't simply convert them. In either way they play silence on my iPhone around halfway through and for the remainder of the track.
    I have attempted a full restore from a backup, and then reloaded all of my music, same songs, same problem. I don't feel a manual restore would help because that means reprogramming every single app, and the music would be reloaded the same way so what difference could that make?
    Just to add insult to injury my protection plan ran out about 2 weeks ago and my phone otherwise works fine, so this can't possibly be worth purchasing another pricey plan just to be allowed to TALK to Apple.
