IPod Driver 3.1 won't install

Hi,
When I use Software Update on my PowerBook G3 to update the iPod driver, it crashes!
So, I can't use my iPod Shuffle with PB.
Here is what the crash log says:

PowerBook G3 @ 233MHz & 192MB of RAM Mac OS X (10.2.x) iMac G3 @ 233MHz, DELL Dimension 2400 @ 2.4GHz, iPod Shuffle 1GB

I have the exact same problem with my Power Mac. At first I thought it was an issue w/ my Sonnet upgrade card but after reading these forums its obviously a software issue. Everything else about 10.2.8 has worked fine but when I attempt to download & install the iPod driver 3.1 the "software updater" unexpectedly quits. I have yet to find a direct download from Apple's website that would allow us to bypass the software updater but perhaps the problem lies within the OS. If anyone could provide some suggestions here it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Brian

Installed new hard drive, formatted, mavericks won't install, says need 2GB or more memory, I have 8GB memory

I have two 13" Macbook pros, #1 has 2GB memory and #2 has 8GB memory. I installed a new 1TB SSHD hard drive in Mac #2. I downloaded OS X Marericks to Mac #1 and made a bootable USB. I put the USB drive into Mac #2, hold down the option key and start up. My install Mavericks usb comes up and i click on it, it brings up the next window properly and i go to disk utilities and formated the new hard drive properly. I than click on install OS X Marericks, the next window comes up and I click on continue. The next window comes up, and instead of being able to click continue again, there is a message that says OS X Mavericks requires 2GB memory or greater and a button to click that says Quit. This is the Mac that has 8GB memory ???????
I put the bootable OS XMavericks USB in Mac #1 with only 2GB memory and it works fine. Both Macs are mid 2009 and both work fine.
Anyone have a clue to what the problem may be??

Could be Apple is locking the Mavericks install to the system it is downloaded TO. Not sure as I only have one Mac that has Mavericks installed and I have no desire to install it on my Mini.
Why not just download Mavericks to the other Mac?

My iPod touch 2nd Gen won't install ipa's from the app store or iTunes. What should I do?

I have tried to install apps via the app store and via iTunes. I am using a freshly restored stock 4.2.1 firmware.

- Yes, the app in question was 'Doodle Jump' which states that it is compatible with iPod touch 4.2.1
- No, restrictions are switched off
- I get a message of iTunes saying 'iTunes is unable to sync iPod'
- When I purchase the application via App Store on my iPod, I get a 'bubble message' saying "Unable to Download Application" 'Doodle Jump will be available for download when you log in to the iTunes Store on your computer'
The issue is only with my iPod touch, I don't experience this issue with my iPhone or iPad.
I have already purchased 'Doodle Jump' on my iPhone and it installed correctly from the App Store.

Mavericks won't install on newest mac mini fusion drive

I have a mac mini, latest version. I have a fusion drive.
Mavericks won't install on that drive. I get this message:
This disk doesn't use the GUID Partition Table scheme. Use Disk Utility to change the partition scheme. Select the Disk, choose the
partition tab, select the volume Scheme and then click Options.
Well, I did that, up to "choose the partition tab." Then it says "you may only split this partition into two. To do this, click +."
I did that, and there were two partitions. the only option left is to select apply, which I didn't.
The "options" were still greyed out.
So now what?
Thanks for any input.

Lion creates a recovery area with a minimal version of OS X and it may be unable to do so due to use over the years, and possibly other resizing operations (Boot Camp). It could just need more space, if you only have less than 8gb free. Lion shuffles and merges the two systems when it upgrades. You can burn the image downloaded from App Store by finding the dmg file inside the "Install Mac OS X Lion.app" bundle, dragging it into disk utility, then burning from there.
Otherwise, you can appropriate a MBR/BIOS formatted 4GB thumbdrive, 8GB of either EFI or MBR/BIOS thumbdrive, flash storage device, or external hard drive, and format it, using the restore operation through disk utility to copy the contents of the installer disk to the media. Exposed via the alt key before the Apple logo, should show the bootable media, where you can format over the former installation.
As always, backup your files when upgrading. I recommend if your installion is over a year old to wipe and upgrade if you can't make otherwise the media bootable, using your 10.6 recovery dvd.
If you cannot find an external medium to backup your files before the upgrade, if you need to format via disk utility (Through 10.6 media), you can consider Dropbox as an option (2GB free account).
It's not uncommon for the partition to simply refuse operations, including upgrades and resizing.

Mavericks won't install - not enough memory

I have successfully downloaded Mavericks and restarted. But it seems I filled my hard drive and it won't install, because it does not have enough memory. It seems Mavericks install created a new virtual startup disc, so every time I restart, Mavericks tries to install but finds out it does not have enough memory to do so. Is there a way around the new Mavericks startup disc to the old startup disc, which is on the same hard drive, so that I am able to clean up hard drive before installing Mavericks? I only have access to Terminal, Disk Utility and System information through Mavericks Installer menu. When I quit the Mavericks Installer, it tries to select a new startup disc, but does not find any. I have iMac with Intel i3 and latest OS X Mountain Lion before Mavericks install. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for reply. Yes, sorry, I don't have enough free disc space. The question is, how to get out of the Mavericks OS X Install process and start the computer using old system, old start up disc, which is on the same hard drive. Otherwise, I don't have a chance to clean up space on the hard drive and I am in the loop, Restart - Install OS X Mavericks - Finding out there is not enough space - Restart - etc.

ITunes won't install HELP!!

I bought ipod nano and iTUnes won't install it keeps on sayin error 1402 at the end of installing and i have no clue whats goin on. can someone help me.. Ask any questions to me as nessicary i will be happy to answer back
Daniel Walsh

Hi,
I have had the exact same problem. My girlfirend got me a nano for Xmas. I have finally got it working tonight.
I can't take credit for this as some other clever sausage suggested it on here. I'm looking for his entry so I can thank him as it has worked for me. Have a look at the following link from Microsoft.com:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060
I would check that the symptoms it describes are applicable to your computer.
I have had amajor stress but wanted to pass it on as I know how frustrating it is. After 4 weeks I have finally got it working.
I hope it works for you too.
Chris.

Apple mobile device USB Driver won't install (Code 37) on my 7th Generation iPod Nano

As a result, iTunes won't detect my iPod. But the iPod will charge when I plug it in to my comp, and there is an iPod folder in "My Computer". But after installing iTunes, it no longer says “connected” on the iPod (even though it still charges it). And, in Device manager, there is a yellow exclamation mark that appears in the DVD/CD-ROM drive directly after installing iTunes – there is also a yellow mark next to “Apple mobile device USB Driver” when my iPod is plugged in. For both, it says “Code 37.” I know how to fix the DVD/CD-ROM drive problem (by deleting the filters) but the Apple driver still won't install after that. I've tried troubling shooting this. I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, but it hasn't made a difference. And I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes multiple times, too, and every time I reinstall iTunes the same thing happens: my iPod no longer says “connected on the screen,” and the DVD/CD-ROM drive gets code 37 again. Also, I tried different USB cables/ports.
Any help of suggestions would be greatly appreciated. And I think I've already read a lot of troubleshooting guides on this site, but haven't had any success so far.

Sorry, I'm confused. What do you mean by “leaving all other USB devices disconnected”? Does that include my mouse, keyboard, etc? And does that mean I uninstall those things in the device manager?

Please Help! Windows won't install IPod Driver!

My brother got a 2GB IPod nano and itunes and everything installs but when i plug in the IPod i get the install driver window. I click to intsall driver but it keeps saying it couldnt find anything to install (even when i have the disc the ipod came with inside). Its a Toshiba labtop. If anyone knows why the driver won't install or had the same problem please help! Thanks

Hi brunos mum, and a warm welcome to the forums!
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.

IPod updater won't install

I have a 20GB iPod with dock connector. It worked fine until I downloaded iTunes 5. Then when I connected the iPod, I got a message that I needed to update the iPod software. So I downloaded the updater 2005-9-23. But installing it is a problem. When I get to the "destination" stage, I get two choices -- my iPod or my hard drive (though the instructions say to choose the "Starter Disk"). Both are dead ends. If I choose the iPod, I am told "You cannot install this software on this volume. This update requires Mac OS 10.2.8 or higher." Not sure what this means, because my computer has OS 10.3.9. If I choose the hard drive, I get a message that the updater is "disabled." Any solutions?

Well, Erin, I seem to have solved it but I'm not sure how. I read somewhere on the Apple site that if the iPod won't update, you may have to reset it (tried that, didn't work) or restore it. Since I have all my music and audiobooks in my iTunes library, I decided to restore it.
It got to the stage where it said it had restored my factory settings and was restarting the iPod. Then -- nothing happened! The iPod was just dead. It didn't even show up as connected to my computer. So I gave up, disgusted, and left it plugged into the dock connector overnight. Then, this morning, I noticed that a window had popped up asking me to name my iPod. And I looked over and the iPod had risen from the dead! I tried transferring songs to it and it worked! So I'm not sure exactly what happened, but it is working again.
Another thing I was trying at the same time (and I'm not sure if it had any significance) was reaching the updater through the Mac's Utilities folder instead of through the updater icon on the desk top. I'm not sure why that is different, but at least I was getting different messages -- though they still said I couldn't do what I was trying to do.

Windows Vista won't install Ipod

Latest version of Itunes 7.4.2 has been installed, unfortunately Windows Vista has located Ipod mini in "other devices" in "Device Manager", but it won't install the Ipod. I've reinstalled Iteune three times and searched the Windows Vista disk, but with no luck.
I'm on the verge of selling the ipod - any advice would be welcome.
Thanks

I suggest either getting a Mac or going back to Windows XP because Vista is known to have these problems.

My new blank hard drive won't install OSX from the disk?

For some reason my Mac book pro won't install OS through the install cd or through the flash drives. It will load the disk but then freeze when I click install. It won't load through the USB either. I have done multiple diagnostics at the mac store and they tell me that my hd is bad. Twice the hd was fresh out of the box and installed that day. I spoke to a supervisor via phone when I called apple care and he told me that unless I have all apple parts in the computer they can't accurately diagnose the issue. It feels like they're trying to con me into paying double for a "apple hd". What can I do to get my computer working?

I would purchase an external USB enclosure for the HDD. With the HDD in the enclosure, install OSX and then mount in your MacBook. If you continue to have problems, it could be a faulty internal SATA cable.

IPod Nano 8G - Win7 - Device driver software wat not successfully installed

Hi,
Just got my first Apple iPod Nano 8G (4th) and has installed iTune 9.0.2 (64bit) on my Win 7 Ultimate x64. But I am not able to connect iPod nor Sync with iTune successfully even after reinstall/reboot many times with the same problem.
After the installation of iTune accomplished, I plug USB adapter into PC, then Win7 detected and started to install the driver for the hardware, but got "Device driver software wat not successfully installed" as a result.
Then I went to Device Manager tring to install the driver manually for "Apple iPod USB Driver", but finally I failed again and got "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device....", I think this is the software problem, please kindly advise, thanks a lot!

First, my officejet 4500 all-in-one installed and is working perfectly with wireless; however, I have for months still/have been getting the error/uninstall window continuously, telling me install was not successful, but again, printer, scanner, etc., working fine! But this "the installation was not successful" window is ALWAYS up or if I ctrl-alt-del and get it to end now, it comes back up; I have even let it do its thing, finish, restart, but it ALWAYS comes back up, trying to find a solution, etc. BUT MY PRINTER IS WORKING FINE! Please help me get rid of this; also, the file that it puts on desktop to troubleshoot, etc then delete afterward, I have deleted it, but this "unsuccessful" keeps trying to uninstall, reinstall; and as I said, actually went through all the steps to get it gone (printer working fine) but it will not go away! Thanks. ajm
