    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
    Really?
    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

    If the above Support Article does not resolve it... then you have a problem.
    Perhaps a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is required..
    Be sure to make an appointment first...
    Note:
    That error message may be indicative of the Device being Hacked / jailbroken.... If this is the case then you are on your own.

  • Since installing ICloud, and updating IO, programs and websites close whenever I scroll, going back to home page. I have tried turning it off, but that does not work. Can anyone help me out? Also, the keyboard is very slow.

    I am frustrated with the new update and the ICloud. Any program i open, or website I am in, closes suddenly, an returns to the Home page. Also the keyboard is very slow. None of this existed until I did the two updates. Can anyone help?

    Does anyone know anything about onsite specifics?
    I'm wondering where the onsite warranty can be in effect.  Like, can it be used in ANY city in the US?  Can it be used only in metrololitan areas?  What is a metro area in Lenovo's eyes?
    Does anyone know where I can get better and accurate info on the onsite warranty?  Like a coverage map would be very helpful.  Because why should I spend the money on it, if I can't access it?
    Looking forward to more info...thanks.
    There is no coverage map as such.
    I live in what is considered a rural area and had techs driving 60-70 miles one way to get to me, never an issue.
    Obviously, YMMV.
    In my not-so-modest experience, both onsite and accidental damage upgrades are worth every penny if one intends to keep their ThinkPads for an extended period of time.
    Good luck.

  • "Did not respond" problems - can anyone help

    I'm hoping somenone can help with the problems I am experiencing when trying to use ichat:
    I am using iChat AV 3.1 through an ADSLnation AMX 64 router and I am trying to connect with my dad who is using iChat 2.1 through a Voyager 205. I'm on 10.4.3 and my dad is on 10.3.9.
    When ever either one of us invites the other for a video chat we constantly get the "did not respond" error message. Regardless of who initites the chat the error messages always states that it is me who has not responded - this makes me think that the problem is at my end?
    I have the mac firewall switched off. I do have Net Barrier X3 software, but I have the firewall set for "no restrictions".
    Having read through numerous postings here, I have tried connecting to "appleu3test02" and strangely I can get through without any problems.
    I assume that my router is probably the problem - but I am not sure what settings I should be looking for and how to adjust them.
    If anyone has any suggestions any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Ralph
    Many thanks for all your help last night.
    I adjusted the port forwarding on the AMX64 as you suggested - and it did the job.
    I then talked my dad through a similar process with his Voyager 205 and got him to adjust his quicktime settings to match his connection speed.
    And finally we managed to get full video chat - fantastic.
    After reading through all the posts here I felt this would probably take days to resolve - however with your assistance it has only taken a few hours to get ichat fully operational.
    Although this isn't the simple plug an play approach that most mac users are used to, it does prove that if you speak to the right people at the start of the process that setting up ichat doesn't have to be a complete nightmare.
    Thanks again you for your help.

    I have an iphone 4S and it has been doing crazy things like typing on its own.  IT's like someone is shadowing my phone.  Also, the left side of the phone keys get frozen, any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Nothng worst when you need to call or text someone urgently and i can not do it as computer takes over... thank and have a wonderful day!!

    More than likely a failing display. You can try restoring it to see if that helps, but you'll probably have to have the phone replaced. make an appointment at the genius bar.

  • My ipod nano is being detected by itunes but cannot be identified properly. I have already been through the steps advised on apples website including reinstalling itunes and this has not worked. Can anyone help me resolve this problem?

    I am using a HP laptop with windows 8.  I have installed the most up to date version of itunes.

    Nevermind that first part as I forgot that nothing shows up for the Nano at all in Device Manager,
    The 2nd half of my reply still applies:
    Otherwise, try uninstalling all USB root controlllers from your system, rebooting your PC, and reconnecting your Nano. This root controller drivers will automatically be re-installed upon reboot.
