  • After updating ios my ipad is stuck in recovery mode and is not being recognised by the computer in windows or itunes.  Help!

    Help - I am stuck in Afghanistan on operations and my iPad mini has died.
    I tried to update the IOS as directed, there were a few error messages and I cancelled the process.
    The ipad now only shows the connect to itunes screen and is not being recognised by the computer in either windows or itunes.
    I have tried several resets and restarted the computer and reinstalled itunes.
    Is there anything else I can do.
    This is my only method of talking back to my family at the moment and is really quite important.

    Thanks, I will give it a go. Will it work on my computer after I do that?

  • OS X 10.6.7 Canon All-in-One 480 Printer will not print files, only blank pages. Have to go to Utilities, Disk Utility  and Repair permissions for a temporary fix. How can I get a permanent fix?

    After upgrading to OS X 10.6.7., my Canon All-in One MP 480 printer will not print. it says it is printing, but the sheet of paper just runs through the printer and comes out blank. I finally went online to just answers.com and got a fix involving the System preferences, printer and fax. i was told to go to Applications in the HD, thenUtilities, then Disk Utilities, highlight the HD and check on Verify Disk. If it says Disk is OK, click on Repair Permissions. At first, that worked, but the next time I went to print after turning the printer off, it refused to print and just ran the sheet of paper through blank. Once that happens, there is no way to go back to printing the file that failed. I fiinally had to copy and paste the info from the file that would not print and put it in an email to myself and then print that. This is very frustrating, and I would really like a final solution for the problem.

    There's a lot there, so I'll start with the parts I can answer quickly.
    The "ACL found but not expected..." messages can be safely ignored, so says this article
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
    (look below all the "SUID" examples)
    I had changed my Desktop image earlier but when the "Installing 1 item" window came up it changed back to the back ground that you first see on your desktop after installation.
    Leopard installs updates a bit differently. If it's simply an application that does not change system files, it installs them like before, without having to restart. If the update is to the system, then you must immediately "restart," It then goes to that stars and purple screen to perform the installation. Before, it would do the installation while you still had control of the Mac and would prompt you to restart when it finished the installation. This change probably make things more secure and reliable, because you aren't allowed to do other things on the Mac while system updates are being installed.
    Please post back with the remaining point of concern.

  • My iPod Touch is stuck in Recovery mode and would not respond. Please Help!

    Hi! I have an iPod Touch 2nd Generation 8GB. Yesterday, I tried to update to iOS 4.0 from 3.1.3 by way of shift-click restore because my iPod was jailbroken. When the restore process was about 95% done, I received a "Send Error Report" and in every time I do it whether if I am downgrading back to 3.1.2 or 3.1.3.
    My iPod touch is still stuck in DFU/Recovery mode. I tried using another of my USB cable, USB port, and computers but to no avail. I even reinstalled iTunes and I still get the same result.
    Please does anyone know how to fix this?

    Restoring and updating normally also produces the same result.

  • My ipod classic is stuck in diagnostic mode and will not reset. Please help.

    I turned on my iPod classic & it started in Diagnostic mode.  I worked my way through the various tests and press this/press that instructions and now it is stuck.
    I can't turn it off or reset it.
    I am unable to connect it to my PC at the moment and need help so that I can use it.
    I miss my music.

    How did you try and reset the iPod?  By pressing and holding both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons togehter long enough for the Apple logo to appear?
    What happens if you connect it to iTunes?
    If nothing else, let the battery fully drain and then charge it up.

  • HT1320 iPod nano is stuck in Disk Mode.  How do I reset it?

    iPod nano is stuck in Disk Mode and menu wheel is unresponsive.  How do I reset without losing data on iPod?

    Hello jarhead232.
    To try and resolve this issue, please unplug the power from the unit for about 25-30 minutes.  Once this time frame has passed, plug the unit in directly to a wall outlet to see if the printer will power on.

  • My iPod touch is stuck in recovery mode and won't restore?

    Okay my Ipod Touch is stuck in recovery mode and will not restore because "the ipod software update server cannot be contacted". I have tried to restart my computer, restart my ipod, tried different computers, and re-intalled AND updated my itunes and it still will not restore. It is stuck on the picture of the usb cable pointing to itunes and won't do anything else. I'm trying to restore it because my memory was full and I wanted to clean it out and now the ipod is useless, please help me restore it!

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • Ipod nano stuck in disk mode and reset mode

    My ipod which I haven't used for long came into my sight and i triedto use it and the battery was out. OK, so I charged it through my computer Windows XP with the usb. Of course my itunes program detected my nano. And it kept telling me to upgrade my nano so I clicked OK. after 2or 3 mins it was completed and it said to wait until nano reboots itself. But it won't... so i pulled it out.
    Ok when i turned it on the gray screen with the apple logo in the middle appeared. It won't move anymore so I resetted it by pushing the center and the menu button and endless circulation began. 4secs later it blacked out and right after, the gray screen appeared again and again..until the battery wasout ..So I came here and knew about the center and play button so I tryed it worked so I was able to see my ipod on my itunes ,which did not appear before,and now it keeps on telling me to restore it because it was damaged. so I did. and now it came back as new. I wrote my new apod name ...etc. and after that I pulled it out. now it's stuck in disk mode and I can't move on,,,
    I'm sorry the article is long but please help me!

    Thank you, it worked just fine. I guess Apple has replaced operating instructions for these forums! Again, thanks for the help.

  • Ipod classic 120 stuck in disk mode, not recognized by windows or itunes

    so ive been havin tons of problems with my new ipod 120 classic
    first one day when i plugged it in it told me it was corrupted and needed to be restored
    then it would not restore
    i formated it with windows but that didnt seem to do anything
    the other night somehow i got it to the point of naming my ipod but after that, it stopped working again
    for a while i couldnt even put it into disk mode
    now, when it is plugged into the computer it is stuck in disk mode, yet not recognized by the computer or itunes
    it makes the sound when i plug it in but never shows up
    also, when its not plugged in, it starts up and just brings me to a screen that says use itunes to restore. but then i plug it in and it goes right to disk mode and do not connect, and isnt recognized
    when i unplug it i can see it pop up on my computer for that one second i unplug it
    ive tried this on a number of computers and it does the same thing
    when i unplug it from being plugged into the computer it just sits in diskmode saying ok to connect
    if i reset it by pressing center and menu, it just goes back to the use itunes to restore screen
    i cant get it to enter diagnostic mode, and when i hit center and play after center and menu it does nothing either
    ive just about had it with ipods
    this is my 3rd or 4th classic that i have had problems with
    apple should be ashamed of themselves for such a buggy product for so much money, and very very crappy service
    any help greatly appreciated....but im prety sure ill be moving onto another product after this
    luckily i am still under warranty so they offered for me to send it in....but then i am without music for about a week

    please help me fix this so i can get back to some tunes!
    thanks for any info

  • Classic 120gb stuck on disk mode and cant get it off and tried the reset ! before it went into disk mode it went it had red cross ?

    classic 120gb stuck on disk mode and cant get it off and tried the reset ! before it went into disk mode it went it had red cross ?
    i read on the internet that this is a harddrive fault?
    please dont say it is!
    also there seems to be loads of this same fault hapening to the exact same model!?
    please help
    Chaz

    That's super odd. It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.
