  • My ipod wont start and itunes wont recodnize it, what happened and how do i fix it?

    I recently went to: settings, general, reset, and erase all data and settings, now my ipod wont start and itunes wont recodnize it, what happened and how do i fix it?

    - After being connected to a charging source for half an hour, reset the iPod and then connect to your computer and it if appears in iTunes restore the iPod via iTunes.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next see if recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • HELP ME IPOD DOESNT WANT TO WORK

    my ipod is a 80 gigz and i dont kno wat happened all my songs got deleted and now i cant put them back on because when i sync with my computer my ipod doesnt want to sync. i dont know what to do. i tried formating the ipod or using a software update but it doesnt work. is it the wires or what. please help!!!!!

    What happens when you try to restore?
    If it is asking for the passcode then
    Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If not successful, try DFU mode.

  • My ipod doesnt start on when off the charge and wont come on when i plug it into the computer, now it has the iTunes icon and says to plug it into that, but i cant cause it wont turn onto my computer. How do i get my pictures back?

    So, my ipod will not stay on, when I take it off the charger it just goes dead. I cannot plug it into the computer and have it go on; I guess it doesn't have enough power for the battery. But, just the other day, I unplugged my ipod (went dead) plugged it back into my kitchen and now it goes on but an ITunes icon pops up and says for it to be plugged into it, but like I said it doesn't work on the computer. So, now I lost all my pictures but I was wondering how I can get them back? Or get rid of the Itune icon to actually get back on my ipod?

    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.

  • Ipod doesnt want to work now

    Hi,
    I have had an IPOD shuffle for about 2 months now and it has worked perfectly fine on my pc. But last week my ipod just went dead. I was about to play some music when the lights on my ipod started flashing alternatly. When I got back home I plugged my IPOD into the same USB slot as I have been using for the past 2 months, XP and itunes cannot find the IPOD, I have reinstalled the drivers for the IPOD several times, I have also tryed every USB slot on my pc, and i have taken out any other USB connections that have been recently added since I have had my IPOD.
    Please can someone help me!!

    Many people, including myself, are having the same problem and Apple doesn't seem to have a solution. I've spent 2 weeks trying different cures, but to no avail.

  • IPod doesnt start

    Hey
    So I was updating my iPod and all that worked but @ the end on the iPod updater it said 'can't unmount iPod' and from there on my iPod will not start. Please tell me what to do. I have tried the support steps that are included online. Tried attaching it to the wall charger and restarting it...I have tried everything I know...I just don't want to sent it in for service cause i will lose all my songs. Please help me ASAP. Thanks

    If you've tried restoring the software and resetting by holding the menu plus the select button and all that other stuff, I have bad news for you.
    You're screwed.
    This is why people are told not to store songs on an iPod. It's a music "player" not a music "storage device."
    Sorry, I don't mean to be rude and if you're offended then I don't mean to be offensive. It's just that too many people think the iPod is a place to store their music. I have a best friend who does the same thing. I tried explaining this to him and he smirked. Oh well.
    Sorry, my friend, but you need to send it for service if you can't get it to reboot. It happens. It happened to me. The good news is that AppleCare got it back fast.

  • IPod wont start and wont reset

    Yesterday my 80 gig 5th generation iPod wouldnt play any songs and I reset it. Once I turned it on, the apple logo appeared then the iPod told me to hook it up to iTunes to restore the iPod. After I hooked it up a red X appeared. I tried what the site says, but nothing is working.
    What should I do?

    Looks like I might have found the solution on a youtube comment:
    R.O:
    "Plug into you laptop first, whichever set up you use that has iTunes, i know it won't read it, don't even open iTunes as of yet. Do the typical reboot "Menu +Center button at the same time" and hold it, DONT LET IT GO like we were told, when the apple pops up.. KEEP HOLDING IT it will make a new ding sound I've never heard before. and since its hooked to you laptop already an error message pops up and says apple will need to download something to repair your iPod. I when u see that that when i let reboot buttons go. hit ok on the laptop something downloads for like 20 seconds then the iTunes icon hops around when you open it it has a screen with an iPod classic on it and says "Software version blah blah, iTunes will check for an update on such n such date" AND FINALLY there's a "Restore" button. click that and you will be back to square one with your iPod. Renaming , adding all the music on it, but it will work again, finally. "
    I had to do it twice, because my mac froze the first time, but its recognized it now and is downloading the software as we speak...
    Now I've clicked the restore button and it's restoring... I'll post again if its a success, otherwise assume failure.

  • My firefox starts and works normally for a while then all of a sudden it switches to safe mode. I restart the computer and the same thing happens again.

    When I restart the computer as before it works normally for a few minutes then all of a sudden it's in safe mode again. It just started doing this a few days ago, I never had a problem before and it's really annoying as I end up having to restart my computer every few minutes.

    Try to update firefox to the latest 12.0 and check it again. If you have the problem again try to a new profile see: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing-profiles Managing profiles] , see also: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Profiles Profiles] .
    thank you

  • IPod Classic synchronises and works in car but otherwise is dead

    I have an iPod Classic 30GB which synchronises with my Mac's iTunes perfectly well, and when I plug it into my car (bmw 1-series with iPod control via satnav) I can play my music. However, when the iPod is not connected to the Mac or car it is unuseable, with an almost-dark, locked screen. I've tried restoring it via iTunes but this hasn't helped.

  • I upgraded firefox 3.6.10 to 3.6.11 and rebooted...when logged back in firefox doesnt start and is giving an error saying 1.9.10 is not compatible wth 1.9.11

    this is the entire error message

    Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.<br />
    Don't remove personal data when uninstalling.
    It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple discussions
    My first iBook suffered from persistent KPs on start up. Eventually I resolved the issue by cleaning the cache files. There are a number of cheap/free share ware apps. My favourite is Tiger (or Leopard) Cache Cleaner from here: http://www.northernsoftworks.com/
    For more general info on resolving KPs, try here: http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
    Good luck
