    Hi noraaziz,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPod touch only shows the "Connect to iTunes" screen, see this article for steps that can help:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT201413 my ipod wont restore says an error occured (1)?

    my ipod wont restore says an error occured (1)?

    Hi missnaughty06,
    Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    It seems like your iPod can't be restored due to an "error 1" message, and you've found the article regarding resolving issues between iTunes and security software.
    Be sure to follow the steps in that article to make sure that iTunes can communicate with your iPod. If you continue to see the error message, this article on restore errors suggests contacting Apple Support at this point:
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 20, 21, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29, 34, 35, 36, 37, 40, 1000, 1002, 1004, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1667, or 1669.
    These errors mean that your device or computer may have a hardware issue that's preventing the update or restore from completing.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't preventing your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

  • My ipod wont restore screen jus black

    my ipod wont restore always different error everytime screen is jus blank

    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 the screen blacks out or 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.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow 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."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

    You can only use apps that are compatible with your dvice and ios version.
    The secons gen ipod touch can only go to 4.2.1.
    If you are running 4.2.1 then you can only use apps that require 4.2.1 or lower.

  • Ipod wont restore says uknown error 1418 [[HELP NEEDED]]

    my ipod use to work then it stopped working one day
    then i got it to work again somehow.
    now it wont work again
    i need help please. i have tried everything and done everything to try to fix my problem.
    I'm in need of a genious

    Yesterday I was getting the blinking green/amber lights with my shuffle (512Mb).
    After I couldn't get it to reset (with 5 sec. on/off) I plugged it into the computer. Saw that iTunes 6.x wouldn't see it and tried to run the updater. No luck.
    Figured it was as good a time as any to update to iTunes 7. Still no luck. It sees the iPod but says it needs to be restored. When I try, I get the error 1418.
    So, I figured I'd attempt to see if I can find out what's going on. I boot up a Linux live CD and take a look at the drive partition tables. (Figuring I may just reformat the thing and either fix it, or at least end up with a 512Mb flash drive).
    gParted sees the device (interestingly as 1019.75Mb - wondering if they all were the same, but just partitioned differently).
    When I try to repartition, it fails when attempting to assign a drive label.
    I then plugged an old 128Mb flash drive into another usb port and attempted to do a brute force copy:
    dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
    where /dev/sda was the 128Mb drive and /dev/sdb was the shuffle.
    It failed with an Input/Output error at 0 bytes.
    I found some others who seem to have had the same problem (drive just going bad out of nowhere) when I googled for "repartition ipod shuffle" (no quotes). Seems the flash drive can just go bad just sitting there. I'll keep trying, but I don't have my hopes up.
    The new shuffle looks nice, but I can't say this leaves me very impressed. Mine was only about 15 months old (of course past warranty) and pretty gently used.

    what error message?

  • My 4th Gen iPod wont restore because of error 3194. PLEASE HELP?

    It went into recovery mode, and so i plugged it into iTunes. However when I plug it up it says it needs to be restored, and it wont restore because of error 3194. Nothing I have read yet is helping.

    Okay! I may have a solution for some of you! I have a 4th gen click wheel, and it was doing the whole restart thing over and over, but never getting past the apple logo.
    You need to get to the diagnostic mode. To do this I had to hold down the select and rewind buttons at the same time. (for some models it's the sel/ff buttons or the ff/rw at the same time. The Apple logo will briefly appear backwards, and then you should hear a chime. My screen came up as:
    IRAMPASS
    PLAY TO CONTINUE
    (and some other junk)
    press play.
    Another menu will come up, scroll through the menu (my Ipod I had to click ff to scroll through. There were 3 pages to scroll through. I got to disk mode on that menu and with the ipod connected to my computer, I started disk mode. Once disk mode started my computer recognized the ipod (finally) and I was able to restore from the computer.
    I did lose all the music stored on it, but I'm happy to have made this progress, considering when I got this ipod from a friend two days ago, who was about to throw it in the garbage, it would not even turn on!
    Hope this post helps someone!

  • Help! ipod wont restore any firmware! what should i  do?!!

    You need to install the adobe flash player plugin.  Download only from the adobe flash player plugin download page.  Mount the downloaded dmg and launch the installer.  Check the agree to terms to enable the install button and then click the install button.
    Once installed, the next launch of your browser should allow you to play youtube videos and flash videos on other flash video sites.

  • Ipod wont restore or go into disc mode

    My ipod wont turn on properly. when i try it displays the apple icon for a few seconds and then the folder/exclamation mark icon before turning itself off. I tried restoring the software but i get an error message saying 'can't mount ipod'. It wont go into disc mode either, i just get the apple icon. I think it needs professional help and i know it hasnt been a year since i bought it and it should still be under warranty but i cant find my receipt. any help would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks

    I just updated itunes with my ipod connected.  When the update finished my computer didn't recognize the ipod and then itunes thought there were 2 ipods connected to my computer.  After I disconnected the iPod I tried to turn it on where I get the big red X and what sounds like hard drive crunching.  I've tried started in disc mode, but it won't.
    And smacking the iPod on the table, is that really the way to get it to work???

  • My iPod wont turn on. Help, ASAP.

    Whenever i put it on my Altec dock, it turns on and its fine. But whenever i bump it or take it off, it goes black and wont turn on. It wont turn on when i plug it into my computer through USB, or when i plug it into an outlet. I finally gave up and put it into Recovery Mode. I plugged it into my computer and put it into Recovery Mode again even though it was alredy in it, and it conected. I hit Restore, and waited. It gave me the error message; 1604. I repeated, and repeated, and tried Apple's, Trobleshoot instructions. Still no luck. I need help, any suggestions?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
