HT203433 I have done all of the above and neither my IPod or IPad will auto down load book smaples. The Auto switches just turn off after a few seconds.

I have tried to follow the steps and everything the HELP steps say to do is completed. Yet the slide "on" switches on both the iPad and iPod will not stay in the on position. They immediately slide to off. I get the error message they must be turned on........ Is there some other setting or trick to this? I want to preview boooks from itunes store. The version of iBooks is the latest also. Even though my job involves computer programming, I find these Apple products have such limited support for such expensive objects. I have had two college students check this to avail also, one of whom just graduated with a computer science degree...... Very discouraging

I have tried all the steps in the users guide except the restore as new. The reason I have not taken the time to do this two new devices do not work. When I got the iPod back in December, it did not work. I was taking an international trip and wanted to see some book samples and could not. I have been busy since the trip and haven't taken time to try to trouble shoot. Now my company gave me a iPad for being a very long term employee and it does the same thing. That is why I spent hours reading the FAQs, etc, trying to make the switches stay on. That is why I do not think it worth the time to reset as new.. Being a computer tech, It appears to me that the problem lies in the iTunes program on my desktop, rather than both new IOS devices.
Thanks in advance for the thoughts and suggestions.

    If what Allen says does not fix the issue I have seen this as a Hardware issue and I would get into an Apple Store if it is close by

  • My nano is fully charged and when I use the earphones it comes with, the nano stops playing my music after a few seconds and turns off.  But when I use another earphone, it's okay and stays on. How do I keep the nano from turning off after a few seconds?

    Why does my nano keep turning off after a few seconds while I'm listening to my music?  It's fully charged and brand new.

    I've tried everything in the article "Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista and Windows 7 video playback performance issues''. Here are my results.
    My computer meets the requirements.
    All software (Windows, iTunes and QuickTime) are up to date.
    As for updating my drivers, I found nothing labeled 'Video'. The closest thing I found in Computer/Manage/Device Manager was to click + next to 'Display Adapters' under that I found 'Intel (R) HD Graphics Family' which I right-cicked. From the menu, instead of 'Properties', I selected 'Update Driver Software...', then I selected 'Search Automatically for updated driver software'. I saw the messages "Searching for Software... Searching online for Software... The best driver software for your device is already installed. Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date." I got these same messages when I searched for updated audio drivers.
    My computer is already at the highest display resolution. (1366 x 768 recommended) That's as high as my resolution will go. Hmm, I noticed the article's example shows '(1920 x1080 recommended)'. Is my max 1366 x 768 resolution high enough?
    As for QuickTime, deselecting 'Enable Direct3D video acceleration' had no effect. Disabling the DirectX entirely (Safe mode (GDI only)) allowed the audio to play, but there was no video, only a black screen.
    As for turning on DMA, the only item under 'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers' is 'Intel Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller' So I right-clicked, selected 'Properties'. There's no 'Advanced Settings' tab in there. The tabs are 'General, Drivers, Details, Resources' no 'Advanced Settings' anywhere. So much for that.
    'Readyboost' was already set at 'Do not use'.
    No 'NVIDIA nForce Serial ATA (SATA) controllers' exist in my computer.
    The problem still exists. Please help.

    I have that exact same problem! It plays albums fine. But individual songs including ones downloaded from iTunes either skip or play the music of another totally different song. All play fine on iTunes and my iPhone... Got this one to replace my dying 5th gen classic.

  • The video on the Camera app seems to turn off after a few min...I am trying to do a 20 min video.   What am I doing wrong please?

    The camera app has a video feature on it and I tried to do a 20 min video but it seems to turn off after a few minutes.  I tried twice with the same results.  There is no info under settings or anywhere on time restraints.  Does anyone have any suggestions please? 

    Sasabean-
    I do not know if this is related to your problem, but there is a setting on the iPad called "Auto-Lock".  Mine is set for 5 minutes.  One of the options is Never.  See Settings-General-Auto-Lock.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.  You can then do a backup

  • When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???

    When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???
    Its the same on most of the preset amps.
    Please help, the apogee cost me £80!

    Is it stopping recording after 8 seconds? Are you using Garage Band?
    If both of these are correct:
    This is actually a feature (i'm not sure why it defaults to this).  Instructions for the iPhone version are below:
    With the amp section open, touch the sproket on the upper right.
    You should be in a "settings" type area with three tabs.  Touch "Sections"
    Select the section and switch it to automatic - it will now record until you stop recording by touching the stop icon.

  • My color is faded every time I print. I have done all necessary print tests and everything is fine.

    I am so stumped on this.  I have only had my canon pixma for a few months and the prints are faded in color.  I have tried changing the various settings, have done all the print tests and they all have turned out fine.  I bought this printer for graphic design projects and I was tired of going to fedex.  But after hours of problem solving I've had to go to fedex for some of my projects to get the rich vibrant color I'm missing from my canon.  I've tried using different paper, changed the ink, everything.  Please tell me what I'm doing wrong!

    Hi, Blackcat6091!
    So that the Community can help you better, we will need to know exactly which model of printer you're using, and the version of Windows or Mac in use. Also, which program(s) are you printing from?
    If this is a time-sensitive matter, our US-based technical support team is standing by, ready to help 24/7 via Email at http://bit.ly/EmailCanon or by phone at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666) weekdays between 10 AM and 10 PM ET (7 AM to 7 PM PT).

  • Iphone turns off after a few mn of utilization with the battery full

    My iphone 3GS turns off after the battery is fully regenerated. I can only use it a few minutes before it turns off. I have to plug it again to turn it on, and the indicator of charge is around 98 %. The problem does not come from the battery. Has anybody found the same dis-functioning? A solution? Thanks!

    More than likely the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    If there is an Apple store nearby, make an appointment to have this confirmed.
