Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons

My IPOD says Disk Mode, and will not turn on at all

I have an older Ipod. It will not turn on. It says on a dark screen. Didk Mode. It will not turn on. I has charged all night.

What happens if you try to reset the iPod? To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. Don't be afraid to try this procedure more than once if no luck the first time around.

IPad 2 will not accept Apple id and will not let me do anything on it. It just keeps popping up on my screen

iPad 2 will not accept Apple id and will not let me do anything on it. It just keeps popping up on my screen

Don't know how it happens. Have you signed in successfully with your Apple ID in App Store or iCloud? Is your iPad connected to network?
You should make sure that your iPad is connected to a stable network. And then you should type in the correct Apple ID password.

Follow the steps in the article you linked to this forum, it has the steps you need to follow to restore the iPod in recovery mode.

IPod shows as camera and will not let me use as disk space. Please Help!!

Okay, so i know that this has probably been asked before, but every similar question i read was a little different from my specific problem. Maybe someone on here can help me. :)) *crosses fingers*
I've had my iPod Touch since summer, and I just got a new laptop for Christmas. So I want to transfer my iTunes over to my new computer, of course. I read the tutorial on Apple Support, but when I went to drag my Library over to my iPod, it was showing up in My Computer as a camera, and will not let me use it as disk space. I've also followed the steps to stop the automatic Camera pop-up when I plug in my iPod. Yes, my iPod is set up on manual, so disk use SHOULD be enabled, correct? I am positive that I also have the latest iTunes software. AND my USB ports are up to date.
Sorry for the overly-thorough problem description, but I have read too many of the similar posts, and I know all the usual suggestions. But seriously, any help is appreciated. Thanks guys.
-Happy New Year

Hi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Sorry to say that you cannot use an iPod Touch as an "external" drive, unlike the "Classic" etc. which I believe have this feature.
To transfer your library you will have to back it up to disc(s), a different type of HD or use a network to send the files over.
Good luck,
Dud.

HT1212 My Ipod is reading Ipod diabled connect to itunes but when i connect it tells me it has a passcode and will not let me do anything

My ipod reads Ipod disabled connect to itunes. When i connect to itunes a box appears on the computor screen and will not access the ipod and says it has a passcode and will not let me try to enter a passcode into the ipod? What can I do?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

HT5622 Downloaded the new Itunes and now files are missing and will not let me download anything or play my music.

Running Vista operating system. During updates to my system, Itunes cannot open due to files missing and will not let me re-download it or open/save it. Cannot play my music or open Itunes at all.

On the new computer launch iTunes.
From the iTunes menu bar (top of your screen) click Store > Authorize This Computer
Now try syncing your iPod.

HT1918 my problem is that on my phone where you are supposed to be able to choose payment .it says that paypal is not a choice and will not let me do anything to it

I am having a problem with my itunes account.i have up
Dated all my info, but it keeps telling me to update it. When I go to the page it says paypal is not available. itdoes not give any other options.i also have giftcard credits but it will not let me use them either.

Although i share your feelings and are not very happy with iOS 7 myself i think your should rethink how to express this anger. Since this is a user to user forum and apple will not directly read in here you can go to www.apple.com/feedback to tell them. If you lower the tone down a bit it is much more likely that your feedback will be considered.
Now bad feelings, though.

My i pod shows the itunes symbol on the screen and will not let me do anything, any ideas?

I did the iso 6 upgrade and now my ipod shows the itunes symbol and will not do anything else, any one having that problem or know what i can do/

For that you will need to follow this.
Passcode Locked or Disabled
If your device is locked with a passcode or disabled you will have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with. This is so that you can restore your apps, data and settings. You can restore it with any other computer, but you will lose all of your info from on the Device.
Instructions can be found here.

InDesign CS5 is crashing and will not let me accomplish anything

Although I haven’t done anything different from usual, in the last two weeks Indesign CS5 has been crashing. Now, since Friday it will not let me do any work at all. As soon as I start to work, this message pops up and the program closes:
"Adobe InDesign CS5 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
My operating system is Windows 7, 64-bit. So far my tech support has run spyware, malware, reinstalled, updated, but nothing works. Even my older files that were previously fine are crashing.
I hope you can help me figure out how to solve this problem. I'm at a standstill.

(sorry for the delay, I am still swamped.)
I suspect an uninstall and reinstall is in order. Hopefully that is all that is required, but if not, you've got some sluething to do to find your problem. Windows 7 crash reporting is essentially non-existent in any helpful way, but I believe John has some thoughts on programs your IT department might be able to run to help diagnose what's going on.
Wait, I do? I'm not 100% sure, but let's see. :-)
I think the first question is, do you or your tech have any idea what might have changed in your system that could conceivably led to problems?
This part is kind of a red flag:
Thanks Daniel. I've sent your response over to my network tech support since I don't seem to have access to that file. I'm not sure it's the answer because of this scenario: I can open an old file that has been fine, nothing else is open, but when I start to use it, it crashes. I've narrowed the crash down to working with images, I think.
It sounds like InDesign can't read part of your user profile directory?
And that, then, suggests a basic diagnostic step: create a new user account and test there (with a copy of the file!).
With respect to crash diagnostics...the way to examine crashes under Windows 7 is to install WinDBG. It is difficult to use and confusing to install, but your IT department can probably manage it. This will allow you to get a stack trace, which is the diagnostic tool that will tell us what InDesign is doing at the time of the crash.
So, yeah.

I removed boot camp from my macbook pro and when it restarted it went to disk utility and will not let me restore or set up a new osx , how can i get the macbook to install from the disk i have

i have tried every possible way in os x utlility to restore or reload from my disk or backup and it will not allow me to do it. I have the original disk with 10.6 but i cant install from it. Please any help would be great as i have a 1200 paper weight

On the advice of a friend I installed and ran a program on my MacBook called 'IPSecuritas'. This has stopped my wireless network from appearing and disappearing, but I still can't connect. Would really appreciate some help with this.

Itunes is running in 64-bit mode and will not let me switch to 32- bit mode

I guess 64-bit mode requires MAC OS X 10.7 and I only have 10.6.8 so somehow i need to switch back to 32-bit mode and the instructions it gives me to do so don't make any sense. help!

At Mike Johnson12's suggestion I posted my problem separately at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15801854#15801854 . The only response I have received there so far is from another person who has experienced the same problem you & I have. That makes at least 3 of us. Please feel free to hijack my post there if you think it might help!
