  • My iPod 5th gen will not completely turn on it shows the apple symbol then shuts off I have restarted it and tried to plug it into my computer but cannot find it to restart it

    My iPod 5th gen will not completely turn on it shows the apple symbol then shuts off I have restarted it and tried to plug it into my computer but cannot find it to restart it
    Its been like this for awhile and I can not fix it

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My Ipod 4th Gen will not turn on. When I hook it up to the computer I get the ITunes symbol and the usb device on the screen of the Ipod. When I go to restore the Ipod it will not restore. I am getting unknown error code 6.

    Likely this:
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 40, 1000, 9006
    Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.

  • My ipod nano4th gen will not download the purchased songs in itunes v11.  Just upgraded to mac 10.6.8-won't synch new songs since this upgrade.  The ipod is seen in the itunes as the devise, and the nano screens says synching when plugged into the macmini

    my ipod nano4th gen will not download the purchased songs in itunes v11.  Just upgraded to mac 10.6.8-won't synch new songs since this upgrade.  The ipod is seen in the itunes as the devise, and the nano screens says synching when plugged into the macmini usb port, but the itunes window does not say it is synching like it has before so whats the culprit? Techno virgin in distress! 
    PS - I added an iphone5 which is whay these upgrades happened so this synching to the ipod error is since the iphone began synching.

    I just learn in some post that the most common lapses in syncing is not checking if "sync music" in music section of the ipod is ticked. So double check if it is. Cheers!

  • My nano ipod 7 gen will not be recognized by itunes but my classic ipod syncs just fine

    my nano ipod 7 generation will not sync or be recognized.  it says it detects an ipod but cannot be recognized.  i have an ipod classic that syncs just fine.  why will my nano not be recognized?  it is a new computer and i have done everything it has asked in the help section.  nothing works?

    In iTunes, if the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  The iPod should appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  It does not appear there, when you connect the nano?
    If not...
    it says it detects an ipod
    Where does it say the iPod is detected?

  • My Ipod 4th gen will not work without the charger.

    My ipod nano 4th gen will not work without the charger.

    How much it costs depends on who you have replace the battery whether that be Apple or a 3rd party repair company.  Here are Apple's prices.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    It would likely be much cheaper to have a 3rd party company do it instead.  One company I have heard a lot of good things about is iResq.  For others, do a simple Google search for "iPod battery repair" and you should get a plethora of results.

    I don't believe Radio Shack does offer that service.  Sorry.

  • Touch 32GB 2nd Gen will not charge or sync

    So I bought my iPod used through a 3rd party reseller, been great for almost 2 years now, but finally has its first serious problem. The battery had been drained from use, so this morning I plug it in to my PC laptop, and the low battery icon pops up on the screen for a couple of seconds, then the screen lights up full, and the Apple logo appears, but after about 5 minutes of sitting on that logo, the screen comes off, then the low battery logo comes up again, and then goes back to the Apple logo one more time, this just continues on and on, even after leaving it plugged in for about an hour. Everything had been working great the night before, after I updated a couple of apps on the iPod, but now will not come back on at all. I'm suspecting it could be that the battery finally gave out or maybe something wrong with the charging circuitry. I've tried using 2 other USB cables, to no avail, and using different combinations of cables on a desktop PC and my girlfriends PC laptop, none of which will produce anything, even looking into the Device Manager while the iPod is plugged in, none of the 3 computers seem to be recognizing my iPod as an attached device.

    Well this is a wierd turn of events. On a random hunch (and it being late at night I figured I'd try one last thing), I put my Touch on my iPod alarm clock dock, and came back about a half hour later, and lo and behold, it actually held a charge, and is now back to normal. Many thanks for your replies though, I appreciate the effort.

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen will not turn on or restore

    hey guys, so i have a Ipod touch 32gb 2nd gen. It suddenly just stopped working it turned off so I thought I just needed to charge it. But after leaving it to charge for a few hours i tried turning it on but nothing happened. When I connect it to my computer and hold the lock and home button itunes prompts me to restore it but when I try to restore all i get is a white screen on the ipod and a error 21 on itunes. I have tried many methods to remove that error 21 but nothing has worked. So now I have a non responsive ipod that will not turn on or restore help please!!!
    Any help will be welcomed and thanked!!!
    Thanks in advance!!

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen will not connect to my wifi giving me incorrect password

    Friday when i went to school when i came back and i turned wifi on it asked for my password and it told me incorrect password even though i am 100% sure it is correct. I went to my dads house over the weekend and used wifi there, and when i came back it would keep telling me that i had the incorrect password. My brother also has a 2nd gen itouch with ios 4.1 and same as me and his will connect just fine. I have tried several things and none seem to work. I have not tried updating my ipod or restoring it for several reasons. Does anyone have a fix?

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - 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.
