It sounds like your phone is in recovery mode, which means it needs to be restored through iTunes on your computer in order to get out of it.

Try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

My nano was working just fine and I had been using it as my fitness watch ( music). I plugged it in to charge and when I came back to unplug it, it was so hot that it burned my hands. I continued to unplug it and that was the last time it worked.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

ITunes cannot find songs when iPod or iPhone is plugged into computer

Every time I plug my iPod or iPhone into my computer, an iTunes box pops up saying, " 'such n such' song could not be copied to the device because they could not be found." There will be a little arrow saying '100 total problems'. Actually it is referring to all songs/videos/whatever in the device. When I look in the library it is there with the exclamation point. The song plays when selected, so it is not gone. It only seems to disappear when I attach a device to my computer and iTunes comes up. I thought I fixed it when I restored my iPhone. After I reattached the phone with the newly added songs, the error message showed again.
It's not as bad as it sounds as the items are still there. The songs are still on my iPod too. When I remove the device and restart iTunes, it acts as though nothing is wrong until I again attach any idevice. It can be a real headache when I want to recharge and play random songs that is cannot find or add those songs to another .
I do have all my songs on a network attached storage device with a RAID 5 system.
Anybody else have similar porblems?

Ipad froze up with picture of cord plugin and arrow pointing to itunes logo but wont go away when i plug into itunes

ipad froze up when i was updating itunes with ipad plugged into computer. now ipad just shows a picture of a cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. does anyone know how to free up my ipad. ive tried unpluggin it and plugging it back in to itunes but nothing unfreezes it.

Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

ITunes crashes when iPhone is plugged into computer

Ever since upgrading both iPhone software and iTunes iTunes shuts down when I plug my iPhone in to my computer. I have a 32gig G3S iPhone. iTunes runs fine and the phone works ok after a glitch or two this past week (lost phone connectivity Saturday and then black screened on Monday). However everytime I plug my iPhone into the USB port (direct connection) iTunes will give me the unexpected error message and need to shut down. I have followed the directions on how to completely uninstall iTunes and all related software (QuickTime bonjour etc) and still the same problem. I am running winXP Home and it's up to date.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Found my own solution.

Most likely it is showing an cable connecting to an iTunes symbol which indicates the device is in recovery mode.
Connect the device to a computer running iTunes and restore.

My iPod Touch shows USB and arrow pointing to iTunes

It's a newer generation that I bought a while back, but i tried to system restore so my little brother couldn't access my vital applications that i had installed previously.
Whilst plugged in, it said that a system update and iTunes update was required. However, neither fully finished. Instead, the iPod touch shows the generic USB cord with an arrow pointing toward the iTunes symbol.
Is there anything that i can do without having to pay for it to be fixed???

First get the latest version (10.6.3 ) of iTunes to install on your computer. See the following if necessary:
Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
The connect the iPod and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in DFU mode and restore if necessary.

Itune 10.5 (64-bit) A program required for this install to complete could not be found...help!

Attempted to update Itunes to 10.5 (64-bit) tonight. About 20 seconds after it begins installing, it pauses and gives the following message,"There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." Then, it backs out.
I got on the Apple support pages and after reading some posts decided to delete the appData/Local/Temp directory as instructed, but to no avail. This was not easy because windows cannot delete the file "FXSAPI Debuglogfile.txt" I was able to go through features and turn off document printing, which allowed me to delete the file....all to no avail. After this, tried uninstalling my current Itunes version, and then installing the new version, but that did not work either. Can't Apple include the prgrams required to install this new itunes update? Do not understand and am frustrated. I've spent several hours and would apprciate some help. Seems everytime Apple comes out with an new Itunes version there are problems!!!

I had the same prob..
I tried repaiering Itunes 10.4 as described above - no effect. Then I deinstalled 10.4 completly.
Reinstalling 10.5 did not work after that.
Then I tried repairing "apple Software update" in control panel.
Now I could also install 10.5 - and all old data still there.
Hence - The problem seems to be in "Apple Software Update" Software

Ipad App Store said "20" updates. I attempted to update w/3G. Now many apps say "Waiting" and are frozen. When I go online and plug into computer it just updates and doesn't address the individual apps, which still say "Waiting" and are frozen.

iPad App Store app said "20 updates". Attempted to update w/3G. Updated some, but now many apps say "waiting" and are frozen. I attempted to update then by attaching to computer Itunes Store. All it did was very quickly go thru the 4 steps and said, "Synched, OK to uplug." I clicked my ipad and then apps. It also said Update complete (or something like that). Now several apps on iPad are frozen and say "Waiting". Help!!

Oh a few other things I forgot.
The long winded back-ups!!!! JESSSSSSH! Although I think the latest update seems to have bit into this a bit.
Also why is it that sometimes when the iPhone is syncing it will not say on the actual iPhone that it is syncing. I see it's syncing in iTunes but the iPhone doesn't have the typical do not disconnect -syncing message!!! What's odd is I can see the new apps being updated to the iPhone and as long as I don't open any apps it will finish it's sync but the minute I open any apps the iPhone will lock-up!!!

When I plug my iPhone in to my computer with the usb cable that came with the phone the screen says, "Charging is not supported with this device". How can I fix this?

When I use the same cable with the wall adapter it charges just fine.

LOL My situation is the opposite. plug my iPhone 3GS with USB cable and attach to mini adaptor (or whatever the small one is called) and it does not charge. Connect the same iPhone 3GS to my MacBook, using same cable, an charging takes place for iPhone. Then, connected the iPhone to the AC power with the large Apple AC adaptor and it always charges. Seems to be the small adaptor and sometimes a third party automobile adapter.
At first I thought this might be because I was using third party USB cable, but now wonder about that since there are so many problems that others are having.
Having scoured the discussions, it appears no definitive answer has been given. Am I wrong. Maybe I never found the answer to what is happening here.
if you can help, please reply to help all of us with the issue still - June 2011.
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
I think that your Mac detects your hard disk, but the problem is that your new hard disk doesn't contain any operating system, so your Mac doesn't find any bootable partition and you see a question mark.
If your Mac came with DVDs, insert the Mac OS X Install DVD and hold the C key while your Mac is starting. Then, just install Mac OS X. If the hard disk isn't prepared to install Mac OS X, you will have to erase it using "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". See > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html

The songs that I select will not play .... message said " Song selected could not be used because the original fie could not be found. The other message I get says " Itunes ws not able to locate any of he 330 missing files". Trying to get in touch with

As a first time user trying to get in contact with a Itunes customer sevice rep is impossible and I was hoping someone is aware of this problem..

This message papers when iTunes can't find the songs in the location they used to be. If you moved them, or is connected the external drive they're on, move them back to their original location, or onnect the drive before starting iTunes.
