IPod beeps twice, black screen.

I was using my iPod (3rd generation nano) the other day and it was working fine. The battery ran out.
I plugged it in and it beeped twice. The screen did not turn on. The click-wheel works. I can navigate (blindly) to a song and it will play normally.
I toggled the hold button on-then back off.
I've reset the iPod by holding menu-select for eight seconds and follow the iTunes instructions.
I've also restored the iPod using iTunes.
If I hold the iPod close to my ear, I hear a faint buzzing sound.
The iPod continues to beep periodically as it charges (two beeps every two-three minutes). iTunes reloads each time.
I can't turn the iPod off.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Does anyone know of a possible solution?
Please help.
I am running iTunes 9.2 (61) on OS 10.4.11.

i have the same problem, it beeps if i connect it to my itunes or my ipod speakers it beeps couple of times, if i press play then it plays music but if i don't it keeps beeping. the screen is just black all the time. i really need help fixing this!!

When it says place the iPodin recovery mode use this prgram.

- 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.

Is the iPad charged? Plug it in with the charger/wall outlet for half an hour and try again to reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears.

T60 exhibiting 1 long and 2 short beep and black screen

Hello all,
i own a thinkpad t60 with ATI radeon x1300 graphics card. I read through your complete "T61p exhibiting 1 long and 2 short beep and black screen" thread and I have the same beep problem with my t60. Let me briefly explain you how the beeps occur in my system:
My t60 had this problem after I initally formatted my system and this 1 long and 2 short beeps used started occuring. But the strangest fact is that after those beeps and blank screen, the power light in the indicator light group is on along with battery and ac power lights. But then when I repeatedly switched on and off the system, the sequence of beeps dont occur all the time. Then I completely switched off the system and when I booted the next times I started pressing the ESC keys after pressing the on button. Most of the times ( 8 out of 10 times), the first 4 times it produced the same beep codes but after the 5th time, the system turns on. All those 5 times, I kept on pressing the ESC key once I powered on the system.
Also, every time I'd a chance I did run the pc doctor to find any pro blem with the board or video card, but every time it turned out to be fine. So now,every time I turn my system off or use a stanby/hibernate whichever turns the screeen off, on immediate reboot it comes out blank but with the power indicator light on.
Here by I also list any changes that I'd made:
1. I reformatted the system and only then this started to occur.
2. after reformatting lsat time, I forgot to change the boot sequence but now I;d fixed that by pressing F9 under startup in bios.
3. I'd also once replaced my RAM with a different one (have 4gb now, but I suppose t60 can support a max of 3gb). WIll this be a problem?
4. And in the recent times due to the ati3duag.dll BSOD has occured. Any idea what this error might be due to?
5. Due to all these uncertainities, I havent updated tot he latest ATI driver which is 8.593 * and I still have the 8.293* . Will updating to the new one be a problem?
I appreciate any help or guidance you can give me in this matter and I badly need to fix it for my projects.
Thanks
Vishak

I think your best way of diagnosing this is to remove the new ram and install only one chip, if the problem persists, try the other. If the problem persists, then I'd try booting from a Linux LiveCD (any will do but I'd recommend ubuntu.com). boot with the option to not change anything on your PC. If you get this same problem when booting linux, then you know it's a hardware problem, in which case I'd remove as much hardware as possible, drives, cards, etc... if it still persists, then you most likely have a bad system board. In this unfortunate event your best option would be a used one. A new one would cost more then the laptop is worth, but used T60 boards are pretty reasonable, I just found one for another member and could probably help you find one to if necessary, but lets hope it's just a ram chip. And by the way, your system is limited to 3GB, but in the chipset, and in your 32bit OS they came installed with. You can install 4GB, but it won't be able to use it all.

2 Loud Beeps and Black Screen. What could be wrong ?

I have a white macbook 13 inch i bought back in march 2008. I spilled liquid on my computer recently and replaced the topcase there was no liquid damage to the hard drive or any other parts. It worked fine at first. Then when i started it a black screen comes up and i hear loud beeps? seemed to come in sets of 2. Maybe bad ram? maybe i put the cards it the wrong slots? would that cause this problem?

Have you tried booting the computer with only 1 stick of ram?
first try the one stick of ram in the left slot.
if it still beeps twice on boot, you could try moving the stick of ram to the right slot.
if it still beeps twice. You could try the using only the other stick of ram.
First try the left slot, then try the right slot.

Why is my ipod touch unresponsive (black screen)

i have a ipod touch 1 generation 2.2.1 and it just stoped and now it has a black screen and is unresponsive no battery sign telling me to charge or any thing just a black screen i have it on the charger now can you help me

The Genius Bar was no help and told me my iPod was dead. Fortunately I have a friend who has the magic touch with Mac products and he was able to fix my iPod thus:
1. Hold down the Power and the Home button simultaneously.
2. When/If the Apple comes back let go of the Power button but continue to hold down the Home button.
3. iPod is aliiiiiiive!
We also to the extra, precautionary step of reinstalling the latest OS and not restoring from back up. I had to reinstall my apps and then set them back up, however my iPod is now running as quickly as it did when I first purchased it. (It had been running slower and slower with every OS update until it would take several seconds for the keyboard to even come up, let alone accept entry.)
Best of luck!

T61p exhibiting 1 long and 2 short beep and black screen

All,
There have been multiple discussions over the past months concerning a 1 long and 2 short beep symptom on some T61 and T61p model systems. Over the last several weeks members have begun to start additional topics on this theme and cross post between threads.
I am consolidating all the threads into this new discussion today. Since many of these discussions were originally parallel, the dates and some of the context will now appear somewhat out of chronological order. Please keep that in mind while browsing this thread.
If you are presently experiencing the 1 long and 2 short beep code with a black screen on boot up, I would recommend that you contact service at this time for assistance.
UPDATE 1/4/2011
Previously, I have advised customers to contact service for assistance with the symptoms discussed here. In an effort to maintain customer satisfaction and loyalty, Lenovo has repaired a number of systems as post warranty exceptions. Lenovo will continue the post warranty support; however, with some revisions to the extended coverage effective December 31, 2010.
Customers who experience these symptoms on qualifying models that are no more than six months beyond expiration of warranty should continue to contact support for assistance. This additional coverage ends March 31, 2011.
Coverage beyond this date is available under the terms and conditions of extended warranty or maintenance agreements. Warranty extensions may be purchased for systems that are still within the base warranty period, and post warranty maintenance agreements may be purchased to provide coverage after base and extended warranty periods have expired. Extended warranties and maintenance agreements are a great way to ensure coverage for all the major system components.
Best regards,
Mark

2 is a coincidence, 3 is a pattern... and your problem is identical to mine, too, and happened just some days after mine did...
It seems to me, without wanting to be alarmist, that the T61p with the 570M gpu (or a batch of them) is failing with the same exact problem (1 long 2 short = GPU error) at the exact same time... scary thought, really.
Mine arrived at the lenovo repair center (it's still on warranty) on wednesday, and the status shows as "Repair complete, shipped to customer" as of yesterday. There is no tracking number or "Failing Element / part number" in the status page, tho. It hasn't arrived, either.
Do you know your planar card / motherboard part number? It would be interesting to know if it's the same as mine (42W7653). Were you affected by the problem shown at http://forum.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.id=T_Series_Thinkpads&thread.id=30460&view=by_date_a... ?
And once Mark_Lenovo reads this, Mark, do you need any info? (serial number for the laptop, easyserv reference, etc?)
EDIT/UPDATE:
I called the EasyServ warranty customer support to ask if they had any additional info not in the website, and as a matter of fact they do. The (very, very helpful and nice) man on the phone told me that the motherboard had been replaced and the laptop was due to arrive today, and he gave the UPS tracking number for it, which indeed says it's scheduled to arrive here today, at some point.
Once it's here I'll update with information about the actual repair and the part number of the new motherboard, etc.
To be honest I'm more than pleasantly surprised about the service: the box for shipping my laptop arrived on wednesday, it was picked up that very same day, the laptop was repaired on thursday and arrives to me today, friday. If the laptop works as expected, this is a 10 out of 10 for lenovo customer support, at least for me.
I'm less-than-happy about the quality of the product, of course, but at least I got the 3-year warranty so lenovo paid for everything.

P67A-GD53 stuck in APS LED 1, No Beep and Black Screen

Hi,
I just got my full new gaming Pc, I mount all component and when I press PWR Button, fans, leds, GPU, HDD and all items switch on, but my APS led 1 stuck in LED 1, no beeps black screen, and it can stay all night on without changing...
My Components:
MOBO: P67A-GD53
CPU: Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K CPU (4 x 3.40GHz, Ivy Bridge, Socket 1155, 6Mb L3 Cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0)
GPU: Asus nVIDIA 3D GeForce GTX 560 TI DirectCu II TOP Graphics Card (1GB)
PSU: Corsair CMPSU-700GUK Gaming Series GS700 High Performance 700W Power Supply
RAM: Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9 8GB 1600MHz CL9 DDR3 Vengeance Memory Two Module Kit
I read some things over internet and they say lot of things, I have some ideas, Maybe PSU (My CPU fan stops at 5 seconds after power on, that's normal?), maybe corrupted MOBO or maybe CPU.
Any suggestions are
Thanks, and sorry for my bad English

I know for sure you will have more questions when you get the Z77 but one thing is when you do get it is don't assemble it in the case right away. Do initial assembly outside the case with MB on a sheet of plain brown cardboard or on a cardboard box. That will save you time and extra work until you get it running properly.
One hint now is for initial start up use only 1 stick of RAM in the black slot nearest the CPU, do not put all of the sticks in right away. Also take note that the green LAN LED will probably not light up on the first start up, that's normal and will be OK after it is started a 2nd time. That will happen every time you remove power from the MB such as unplugging PSU or turning off the PSU switch. We'll be here waiting for you to answer any more questions you may have.
Thanks for the information!
It will arrive tomorrow, I will tell you how is it going.
Greetings
