Insert Generic Shuffle Problem Here

Okay, first things first:
512 1st gen Shuffle (1.1.2)
still has two weeks of limited warranty if I need it
Win XP Pro
iTunes 6 or I can use 7.0.1 as well. Either one.
Okay, the problem is the shuffle retains files, music, etc, no blinky problems or anything. However, as soon as it's on its own it won't function. It has power and all, but no music will play, no matter what. It's not paused, the file extensions/compression are all great and the files aren't corrupt.
After a while of wandering around, I've decided to attempt to restore OR update, but neither of them I can do because I get the infamous "The Ipod software updater server cannot be reached..."
Yes, I am online, yes, the lan settings are auto-detected; I've run many restarts. I've even downloaded an older version of the 'firmware,' 2006-01-10.
With this I get an invalid Ipod Service version.
I have no idea what to do!
Thanks in advance...
Shuffle 1.1.2   Windows XP Pro   512, iTunes 6 or 7!

Answer:
iTunes 7.0.1; no idea why the updater *****?
however, to solve this problem:
Remove the shuffle if you have it in.
Uninstall all of the demonic itunes 7.0.1 stuff. Warning: back up whatever you want with your music, if it's in your documents, you should be okay to begin with (but maybe not cause the conversion time of the files! ack).
Install iTunes 6 (google and thou shall findst). Find an older updater from this website (2006-10-01 will do).
AFTER 6 is well placed, etc, install the updater.
After all is well and done, run the updater (without the shuffle connected). It will ask to mount (insert and ipod).
Do so. Now run restore (I did ask to back up, no?), and it will do so and bring it to version 1.1.3 (if not already).
Now! Add songs and LIFE IS WELL!
Hope that helps some people.
This fixes my above problem, and should also resolve problems such as "Ipod Service Updater is invalid, or so forth."

    The iPod sees the new computer as a new iTunes library. You can only sync with one iTunes library.  However, you can manage music among disfferent computers.  See:

    Apple specifically did not enable ipod to computer transfer so as to prevent people from getting music from friends (which in the majority of cases is illegal).

    Hi Noob Søren
    There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
    As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
    You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
    I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
    You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
    Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
    If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
    Hope this helps

  • TS1398 Turn the wifi on and off? I think I have a serious problem here. I cannot even press the on and off because its not available (the color is grey not black). I think this is why Apple is constantly losing a buyer and user. Slow action.

    What is the problem here Apple? Please hear us. I turned on my Wifi and then turned it off after use. After that I noticed something strange because I cannot turn on the wifi button anymore. I have restarted the phone several times, and turn it on after 10 mins, sometimes 30 min - 1 Hr. but then again its not working. I encountered this problem after updating my iOS to 6.1.2! Please hear us. If you wanted to penetrate to the market please love your consumers. Your products are great but your actions to their(US, CONSUMERS)  problems in terms of bugs fixes and battery life is so slow. Why is that?

  • Numerous system log errors such as: "kernel[0]: ... dyld_shared_cache_x86_64': owned by uid=89 instead of 0" ... what is the underlying problem here?

    My system.log shows numerous errors such as: "kernel[0]: ... dyld_shared_cache_x86_64': owned by uid=89 instead of 0" ...
    What is the underlying problem here?

    Are you trying to install anything by any chance??
    update_dyld_shared_cache ensures that dyld's shared cache is up-to-date. This tool is normally only run by Apple's Installer and Software Update, as they are the only official ways for OS dylibs to be updated. But if for some reason you used another mechanism to alter an OS dylib, you should manually run update_dyld_shared_cache.

  • Trying to use VS on my Surface Pro, what is the problem here?

    so I am taking a programming class and using my SP gen 1 and the only C++ program I have been able to use on my SP is VS 2013, however, after 30 days it shuts off. I thought this was good for a year? As is so typical for M$, trying to find a solution
    is next to impossible without wading thru a ton of documentation or other nonsense on the VS site.  I have reloaded the program multiple times with the same effect, so that is no good.  I am at an end with this and do not know how to proceed
    with getting this or another C++ programming app to use on my SP, regretting I ever bought the damn thing. If there is a worthwile suggestion to make this work, I would be interested, thank you...

    When i open my itunes store, it says secure link to itunes failed and it doesnt load up, what seems to be the problem here? appreciate all the help i can get, thanks!

    Yes, provided all the media is inside the iTunes Media folder, which is in turn inside the main iTunes folder (which is the standard arrangement) you should be able to move the iTunes folder from <User's Music> to any other path and shift-start-Tunes (option-start-iTunes on a Mac) to reconnect to it.
    If the media folder has split out to another drive in the past, or media is stored outside of the iTunes Media folder, then things get a bit more complicated. I can go into details should it be necessary.
