My ipod classic has frozen and ive tried the recommended solution but it remains frozen. Please can you advise?

I don't know what the "recommended solution" is unless you describe it, so did you try a Reset

This restarts the iPod, like rebooting a computer.

HI, might help if we knew which model...
If you don't know the model, find the Serial# & use it on one of these sites, but don't post the Serial# here...

I cant finish making my Apple ID on iTunes. I've tried the "None" selection but it's not there.

I go to iTunes, enter in my new Apple ID that I made on the website, and it wants me to finish "verifying". I click ok, and now it wants my credit card. There is no "none" option. Please Help?

enter cc first then there will be option for none most likely. if not an itunes gift card will be required then none will show
Peace, Clyde

I was updating my iphone to ios 8 and it went into recovery mode. i went onto itunes to fix it and it said i needed to update my phone. when i clicked on it it said it would take 500 hrs and kept going on, then it would crash. plz help. :(

yesterday i tried updating to Ios 8. i new there were going to be some problems but i decided to do it. i started the update and less than a half hour into it my phone completely crashed.it went into recovery mode so i connected it to iTunes. i hit restore and update . it gave me and estimated time that kept going up. finally when it got to 800 hours it stopped and said an error occurred. i tried it again and the same error occurred. i am very disappointed in this because i greatly need my phone for school and other important things. i wasn't gonna wait that time anyway. i would like to know if there is anyway i don't have to update, get out of this screen without waiting forever, speed up the time, or get my computer to not crash when it gets to so many hours. (i have windows) plz help me out asap!!!

I have experienced a similar error with the iPhone 4S. The new version of iTunes will not let me restore the phone, it must be updated and nothing appears to be happening. Suffice it to say I am not amused. Apple needs to work this out - I had trouble updating to 8.0.2 as well.

HT1695 i bought a used ipod touch and reset it to the factory settings via itunes and now i'm trying to set it up like new and it won't let me sign in with an apple id it says it can't connect to the server. Other wireless devices are working HELP?!

I am trying to set up my daughters ipod touch after resetting it to factory settings. So I am trying to sign in using an apple id. It says won't connect to the servier, but I have other wireless devices connected, so I know my wi fi is working. What now? Thanks

Return it and get a refund. Without the prior owner's Apple ID and password that device is useless. Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account. You were screwed by the ignorance of the pawn shop owner.

HT2240 My hard drive crashed and I want to reinstall Quick Time Pro. I have a record of the Registration Code, but can't work out how to download the Pro version once again.

How do I reinstall Quick Time Pro for the second time if I no longer have the original email even though I have the registration code??
My PC died and I want to reinstall on a new PC.

Download and install the "free" version of QuickTime Player from Apple.
Under its Edit menu choose Preferences / Registration and enter your info. This "unlocks" the Pro features found in the free download.

"error 3194 and have tried all recommended steps, first problem with this iphone"

Hi, for a few months now I've been using my brother's old iPhone 3GS as an iPod, and I haven't jailbreaken it or anything of the sort, and I've installed every update since, and today I installed the newest update and since it has been in recovery mode and whenever I connect it to iTunes and try to restore (I backed up a few days ago) I am greeted with an iTunes message saying "error 3194" and I've tried everything mentioned in the specific update article for it except for the one pertaining to a .ipsw because when I go to advanced settings I am unable to find anything of the sort. And it'd be much appreciated if any of you could help! Also, I am using a windows computer, not a mac, and have never had problems with this iPhone until this new update.

It is usually given as a communication error between Apple, iTunes (your computer), iPhone. Somewhere they are not communicating, so the iOS you are trying to install cannot be approved by Apple. Trouble shooting steps include, making sure you have Current iTunes installed, make sure your Hosts file of computer is not blocking Apple. Try restoring on another computer.

i had recently followed orders to restore my iPhone 3gs (iOS 6.1) from a question on apple support. However it was working fine before that, it's just that my phone didn't have signal. So it said to restore my iPhone and now it says that the Activation server is temporarily unavailable and when i plugged it into my mac, it said that i ddn't have a sim card installed. What can I do to fix this besides bring it to the store? it also bugs me because this answer was supposed to work but it just messed my phone up even more. This has already happened once and i had to take it to the store. What should I do to fix this? Thank you so much for all answers. i really appreciate.

If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice, It's in recovery mode. You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead. At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios.

I just got new iphone 4 but it tells me to restore the phone wen i plug in my computer.. then half way thru the restoring on the "firmwear" part it stops an says error "9?? wats the go there?? its driving me insane...

i just got new iphone 4 but it tells me to restore the phone wen i plug in my computer.. then half way thru the restoring on the "firmwear" part it stops an says error "9?? wats the go there?? its driving me insane...

Let's first define what "new" means. Was it purchased from Apple or your authorized carrier, and it came in a shrink wrapped box? Or is it only new to you, and you don't know its history?
Assuming it truly is a new, never used phone, Error 9 means that the USB connection to the phone is intermittent. Do the following:
Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes (10.4) - if not, download and install it from htp://www.apple.com/itunes
Reboot your computer
Disable your antivirus and firewall software
Disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse
Connect the cable to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub; do not connect the other end to the phone yet (If your computer is a desktop or tower and has ports on both front and back us a port on the back)
Launch iTunes
Connect the phone to the other end of the cable
If the phone is recognized in iTunes proceed with the Restore
If the phone is NOT recognized by iTunes:
Disconnect the cable from the phone (leave connected to the computer)
Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons until the screen goes blank, then IMMEDIATELY release the SLEEP button but continue holding the HOME button
Connect the cable to the phone while holding the HOME button
Wait for iTunes to recognize the phone, then release the HOME button (this may take several minutes of holding)
If you still have a problem after these steps take the phone to Apple for exchange.

Are you sure you have a 3GS and not a 3G? The 3G cannot be updated to iOS5. What version are you on now?... Settings > General > About > Version
