  • I have an Ipod 1st gen, and I can't seem to make an Apple ID without giving my credit card number. I even looked up how to make one without the credit card number, but it doesn't show up as an option when i follow the instructions. Help anyone?

    help me please.

    If you only want the free iPhone/iPod apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is apparently critical. This seems to come and go, or only apply to App Stores in specific countries, so you may not see the option for "None" when asked for a payment type.
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)
    Regards.

  • I have an ipod classic original and it will not connect to itunes for me to sync new music

    i have an ipod classic original and it will not connect to itunes for me to sync new music

    The first two generations of iPod (that used a standard 6-pin Firewire cable) don't work with Windows. There was a workaound through MusicMatch for the second-gen, but I have no idea if that software is still available, or even if it will install on a modern copmputer (Windows ME, 2000 and XP era).
    If instead of original, you mean the first model that got labelled as "classic," with a dock connector, if you describe exactly what appears on both the iPod and the PC screen when you plug it in, somebody might be able to help you. My first recommendations would be to (1)try a different USB cable, to see if that's the problem, and then (2) try synching with a different computer, to see if your PC is the problem. If neither of those result in success, then the community here can help you to try troubleshooting the iPod itself.

  • I have a iPod 2nd generation and it will not charge or connect to itunes

    I have a iPod 2nd generation and it will not charge or connect to itunes, I have tried pressing the power button and home botton together and nothing happened.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

    Also:
    - See:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable
    - Try another charging source
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.

  • HT201413 I do not have an apple product, but I do have Itunes on my computer, and it will not let me play my downloaded music-error message computer needs registered, and it is.  Can you help me?

    I have had iTunes on my computer, which is not an apple poducts for about 6 or 7yrs now, just recently it will not let me play the music I have downloaded.  I get a error message stating this computer is not registered.  So I put in the information to register it, and it tells me that this computer is already registered.  But I still can't play my music, the error message just keeps popping up.  Can anyone help me?

    Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
    In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
    Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
    What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem.

  • HT1320 I have a IPOD 2nd Gen and it will no longer connect to a Volvo system any ideas?

    I have a Ipod 2nd Generation which no longer connects to the inbould 59 plate Volvo any ideas

    DId it happen after you did anything to the iPod or car system like updateing the iPod's iOS?
    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • I have an iPod Touch 2 and it will not 'boot up'.

    I have an iPod 2, which is 4 years old now and when I switch it on I get the Apple symbol and then the rotating circle and that is where it stays.
    I am guessing there is a problem with 'booting up' the iPod, anyone else had the same problem?

  • I am trying to Re-install CS5 and when going to use Photoshop, I have my original Serial Number and it will not let me activate the Software on a new hard drive.

    Why is Adobe making us jump so many hoops just to re-install software?
    I had a hardware crash and had to re-install all my programs.   We can not activate Photoshop CS online or by phone!  What gives?
    I am in the middle of a project and I can not use Photoshop CS
    Please advise.

    So let me get this right..... I Pay for Creative Suite 5.   I have my original discs and serial number.  I still have the entire box it came in.   I simply need to re-install the product.   I can not use Photoshop because it can not be activated via phone or online.  I am supposed to just in a chat page and you are put in a cue with "We are still assisting other customers, thank you for your patience. You can also try ourcommunity forums, where experts are online 24/7." 
    IS ADOBE FOR REAL???   THEY EXPECT YOU TO SIT IN A CUE ON HOLD WITHOUT AN INDICATION HOW LONG YOU WILL BE IN CUE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WORK DAY.
    NOW YOU KNOW WHY PEOPLE HACK THEIR SOFTWARE!   
    I HAVE A JOB TO DO AND CAN NOT TELL A CLIENT, MY PHOTOSHOP DOES NOT WORK, I AM WAITING IN ADOBE'S HELP CUE!

  • Messages and Facetime will not let me use my apple id

    I recently downloaded Mountain Lion, and I actually got it to be able to have the Messages app, but when i tried to sign in with my apple id, it tells me everytime that "The server encountered an error processing registration. Please try again later." I have tried everything, and looked it up online, but every "solution" available doesn't work. My Date and Time settings are correct, and my apple id works on my iPhone 4s, but not my Macbook Pro (not working for Messages or FaceTime). This has been a problem for almost two months now, and I still can't find a solution, so please help! Thanks, Kate.

    Hi,
    Some ISPs (the people that supply your internet) have porr DNS servers meaning that sometimes that cannot resolve where an app is trying to connect to.
    In System Preferences > Network > Advanced Button > DNS tab add 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (two Google Public DNS servers)
    If that does not work then go to the Apple Menu > About this Mac
    In that Panel click twice on the line that tells you the Current OS versin.
    It should change to the Build number (Another Apple Internal Counting of the OS version) and then show you the Serial Number.
    If it is not present it will need "replacing" at an Apple Store or An Apple Authorised Service Provider.
    The Number should be on the Logic/Motherboard.
    If the board is replaced in a repair or refurbishment then the Number should be "flashed" to the new board.
    If that does not seem to be the Issue have the Finder as the app in the Menu Bar
    GO Menu > Go to Folder
    Type etc/hosts into the Dialogue Box that appears.
    This will show you a Hidden folder (etc) and a file called Hosts in it will be highlighted.
    Right click the file and use the Quick Look Option to see the contents.
    It should read like this  if it is unalerted.
    Some apps can change this file and you can have blocks to certain sites for certain apps listed.
    If it lists Apple or Verisign then the iMessages App cannot register.
    Let use know if this is the case and we can give further instructions.

  • I own a Toshiba and it will not let me update my Apple software. What can I do?

    Every time I turn my PC on it prompts me to do an Apple Software update. I go through the motions and right before it is about to finish it says error occurred. If the problem persists please go to Tools and download it manually (which I have already tried of course). Please help!
