  • Frozen Ipod, cant restore

    My 30gig video Ipod was hooked into it's home computer when the power went out, keeping the "Do Not Disconnect" screen on the Ipod. I would restore it to its factory condition, however, the computer no longer regognizes the ipod for some reason. iTunes does not recognize it, and nor does it appear in "my computer", but whenever I try to use the ipod updater, the computer freezes. I don't know how to fix the iPod and would appreciate your help.

  • After doing the iOS6 update, i had to restore my iPod. But now I can't seem to find my pictures. Is there anyway to get pictures back?

    I wanted to update my iPod and after I had done it, it told me I had to restore the iPod. But now after the back-up none of the photos i had are being put back onto it. Is there a way I can get these pictures back?

    - Did you restore from a backup that contained the photos?
    - The backup only contains photos in the iPod's Camera Roll album. It does not included photos synced to the iPod.
    - All you can do is try restoring from backup again.

  • Ios6 update and it promted restore lost all photos

    My daughter got an ios6 update prompt.  She hit ok, plugged it in to itunes, and it prompted a restore.  She hit backup, but when she went to restore from backup, we can't find the photos.  I tried to use 'my computer' on our Windows 7 PC, but it doesn't see the drive, so I am not sure how to use a recovery program to find the photos.  Not sure of the generation.  Can anyone help?  Thanks!

    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
    Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

  • Failed update/frozen iPod

    The update to iOS6.01 failed with an unknown error. My iPod Touch is now frozen with the screen that shows a USB cable pointing to the iTunes icon. I tried resetting by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time, but immediatel after the Apple logo appears the USB screen reappears. iTunes doesn't recognize the iPod.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Iphone 3gs frozen but cant restore as it has a passcode

    We have iPhone 3gs which has frozen.  Itunes comes up with message that it cant be restored as the phone is locked with a passcode.  Can somebody please tell me how we can restore?

    Restore it using the same computer you last synced with. If that computer is not available, you will have to put it into DFU mode and set it up as a new device.

  • Update of iPod after restore/reset

    Any idea why, after a restore/reset of my 60 Video that I can only "re"update 100 songs at a time from iTunes? At 8,500 this is proving quite time consuming.

    Restored and updated to Version 1.1 (latest current).
    It is set to update all automatically but stops of its own accord around 100 songs through. It isn't exact but rather a round number.
    Perhaps it "times out" after the minute or so it takes to update that number of songs from iTunes to my iPod?

  • IOS 5.0 update for iPod touch: restore from backup?

    I downloaded the iOS 5.0 for iPod touch and everything got backed up beforehand. Apparently my backups are encrypted and a password is needed to use a backup and restore everything back. I don't know what that password is! Can anyone help?

    If you don't know the password, you'll have to set it up "as new device" and start all over again without using the backup. If you did not encrypt your backup and this somehow happened after the update, try to put in one of the password you use on your device, for example the screen lock password or your iTunes account code.
    There have been cases in the forum, where users were able to unlock the backup by trying this method, after their backup got encrypted during the update process for an unknown reason.

  • IPod Touch restore fail. Error codes 2009   1611. Help?

    My iPod began being unresponsive as soon as I detached it from my docking stations, but if I plug it back in to either of them, it works totally fine. I tried to update the iPod, and restore it to original factory settings, but I kept getting error code 2009. I followed Apple's suggestion, (plugging it into a different USB port, and having it be the only USB connected), and then I got error code 1611.  Everything with my computer is up-to-date and working, and the same for my iTunes. Anyone have any answers for me?! Please?!

    If you tried all of the suggestions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    I would try going to a different computer and restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and then gong back to your computer to sync it.

    Check USB connections

    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

    Maunally restore it. In order to do this:
    -Download the iOS 5.1.1 firmware from here  http://www.redmondpie.com/download-5.1.1-ios-for-iphone-4s-4-3gs-ipad-ipod-touch -direct-official-links/
    1. After downloading the firmware from the given link, open iTunes and click on your device.
    2. Now press SHIFT on your keyboard and while pressing it click on "Restore".
    3. A dialog box will appear.
    4. Select the firmware you downloaded and click ok.
    5. Done!!! Your iPhone will now be restored to 5.1.1 and if you had backed up your iPod before, then you can put all its settings afterwards.
