Are you using a rear USB port on your computer, what other USB devices are connected to this computer, are you on a network and are you using antivirus and/or antispyware software? Also, are you posting from a cell phone without a Qwerty keyboard?

Sad faced Ipod error message (click wheel ipod classic)

I've had the sad faced ipod error message with my ipod before and forcing into disk mode has always solved it before.
It's not showing up in itunes or my computer when I connect it to my laptop.
I have tried forcing it into disk mode time and time again and about one time out 40 it will go into disk mode. The problem comes when I then plug into the computer to restore it. It will start telling me do not disconnect then give me the error message of a battery with little power left.
It is definatly charged because I have been trying to get it into disk mode all day and on the occasions I've managed to get there it will tell me i have 3quarters or so battery remaining. However when I am plugging it into the docking station it isnt coming up to say its charging it just goes over and over with the apple logo then the sad faced ipod message.
I have tried 4 different usb cables and 2 different chargers.
Its driving me mad and any help would be greatly appreciated. I dont want my ipod to be dead.

I have been using that page, I was hoping that as id managed to get it into disk mode a few times that it might not be a harware issue.
Its about 2 years out of warrenty so a service will probably cost the same as a new one

Hi,
Welcome to the forum!
Don't say things like "urgent" or "asap" (as in your title, "error messages help need asap!!!!"). It's rude.

Also, you store a number in my_val, but never use that number, and you have a variable called tasktotal that's never defined. Should my_val and tasktotal be the same variable?
Perhaps this is what you want:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
       no_of_task_types (x NUMBER)
RETURN NUMBER IS
    tasktotal   NUMBER;
BEGIN
    SELECT COUNT(distinct t.task_type_no)
    INTO    tasktotal

    WHERE   e.employee_id = x
    AND     e.employee_no = a.employee_no
    AND     t.task_id        = a.task_id;          -- ; at end is important
    RETURN tasktotal;
END;

Ipod error message when connected. Please help

Windows XP
I have had my 30 gigabyte ipod for almost a year and i've never had any problems with it before. But recently our area wasn't able to get broadband. So i was unable to download the recent ipod and itunes updates. I have done that now.. but i think something has affected my ipod. When i plug it into my computer nothing comes up on my ipod screen and i can continue browsing music etc.. i know this isn't supposed to happen. And on my computer an error message comes up saying "USB device not recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognise it. "
Please help me!

Okay. So i'll tell you the steps i have taken. I've uninstalled all the ipod updaters i had on my computer, eg 2006 and 2005.. and i reinstalled the latest version of itunes. I also went to device manager and all that but it only came up in the list at "unknown device" and i uninstalled the driver and tried to reinstall it but it came up saying it was an unknown device again. I tried right clicking on it and going "scan for hardware updates" but it told me the one i have installed is the nearest match. I also tried connecting my ipod to my computer in disc mode which did nothing. But i have discovered my ipod charges when i plug it in.. but the computer freezes on the black dos screen (as it always has for me when i turn the computer on with the ipod plugged in) and the ipod remains charging. but it seems if i plug it in after windows has loaded it's not even recognised.
I'm sorry for making it so long but i really really need help

Help syncing my new ipod - error message - please help

Hi I am needing advice and help.
I have a full library full of songs. I had always been able to sync my old ipod with all my library songs.
I have just purchased a new ipod and tried to plug in the new ipod to load all my library songs on to my new ipod, but only a few artists are getting loaded - only artists that start with a & b is going across. I get an error message when trying to sync the songs on to my new ipod.
The message I get 'attempting to copy to disk'new ipod' failed. An unknown error occured(-69)'
I am wondering step by step and in detail how I can make sure that all my songs from the library are on my new ipod. only a few artists are transferring across.
The thing is my old ipod when syncing is fine and all songs go across! no problem at all. I still have to charge the old ipod as its still in use and it is the same ipod that of my new ipod - the 30gb video 5th generation.
It is very fustrating as I have given my partner the other ipod so they still have full songs when they plug in to sync and when I plug in to sync I only get a & b only, we both use the same computer, same model ipod, same library and my ipod doesnt sync so i dont know why?
Please please help. I really need very detailed and step by step instructions of how to sync the new ipod and make sure all the songs of my library are on my new ipod.
I look forward to hearing from all you soon. Please help! - desperate!!!

"ipod cannot be updated...required file in use" error message HELP!

So I just updated my itunes with the new 7.0 and everything works great, except-- every 10 mins or so, I get this error message "The ipod "xxx's ipod" cannot be updated. The required file is in use."
Nothing happens, I just have to click "ok", but its really annoying. And it pops up again in a few minutes.
I seem to remember this happening before on another update but I don't remember what I did.
Anyone else experiencing this or know what to do?
Thanks!!

I am having the exact same problem -- Itunes version 7 update seems to have created this issue. I get this error message about every five minutes if my Ipod is plugged into my computer, "Ipod cannot be updated. Required file is in use." Super annoying. I noticed a solution posted on this forum but it doesn't seem to work for Macs. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Error message help: "The iPod "CKK's iPod" could not be synced because the sync session failed to start."

I get this error message when trying to sync my iPod Touch, "The iPod “CKK's iPod” could not be synced because the sync session failed to start."

Just made one very simple move without having to restore iPhone or reinstall iTunes..
1st step:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 *Read 'in my case' in here first before following this link*
Follow that link to restart (or if necessary) reinstall your Apple mobile device support.
In my case, Leave iPhone connected all the way. I first exit iTunes. Then i stopped the Apple Mobile device support (by following a part on that link above in step 1) which Effectively made my iPhone undetectable on itunes but discoverable by windows as a 'camera device'. Then while device is still connected, i started the Apple mobile dev support again. Now i open itunes and there my iPhone re-appears.
2nd step: After your iphone re-appears on iTunes, press Sync and all is well...
P.S, Mine is iPhone 4 running on iOS 5, iTunes 10.5, Windows 7..

IPod Error Message: "The disk could not be read from or written to."

Hello!
I was syncing my sister's video iPod (30GB) and this error message pops up "Attempting to copy to the disk. "SARAH'S IPO" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I have restored it three times already, but once it starts putting the music and files back onto the iPod it pops up with that error message. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes and iPod software available. My OS is Windows XP.
Is this something serious? Will I be able to fix it myself or will I need to send it in to be fixed by Apple? Will that be expensive? We didn’t get the Apple replacement plan. D=
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. ^_^
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3) 15" PowerBook 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4, 1.5GB RAM - Windows XP with iPod 5 Generation

Okay I went thru that entire list and here's what I got...
(1) My OS is XP and is running fine.
(2) I've updated my windows
(3) I don't know of any software that might be interfering.
(4) There are no damaged files.
(5) My Windows hard-drive is not damaged and I've tried restoring my iPod's disk thru iTunes but it still doesn't work.
(6) I don't have an iPod photo and I can't find the folder to delete the cache if if I did.
(7) The USB cord is firmly connected into my USB port and my iPod
(8) My music is on my external hard-drive so I need to keep 3rd-party hardware connected
(9) I will try another USB cord to see if that works.
Is there anything else that I can do? Can Apple fix this?
Please let me know.

Getting back the "this file cannot be played on an iPod" error message

Apparently, my iTunes library contains some song files that are out-of-spec and unplayable on an iPod. When I first plugged in my iPod, I remember getting a message to the effect of "The file 'FOO' was not copied to the iPod 'BAR' because this file cannot be played on an iPod." This message repeated for several dozen files before I got annoyed and clicked the "Do not show me this message again" checkbox.
Well, now I want to go through my iTunes library and clean up these incompatible files, so I WANT to see these error messages again. Is there any way, perhaps by mucking with the iTunes plist file, of getting them back?
Any and all help appreciated. Thanks!

I have followed all the trouble shooting tips and am still stuck? I am now being told by a friend I need a link sent to me to fix this??
Someone please help me fix this problem.

Hi
So just close iTunes and re-open iTunes thats it and that worked for you?
When you say reset your settings do you mean to factory settings? As my iPod was swapped at the store for a new one and the problem is still there...
Thanks.

Won't sync and no error message. help

i plug my ipod in to the usb port, it lights up but the screen doesnt change to the normal connecting or syncing screen and it doesn't show up on itunes. there is no dinging sound for connection. no error messages. all my usb ports work, tried them out with other equipment but ipod wont' sync. please help.

I have the same problem. I have 64-bit Windows 7, all updates installed, anti-virus uninstalled, and have a specific firewall exception made just for iTunes, however the iTunes Store still refuses to load. After waiting a (very long) period of time I get the following screen:
Sometimes I won't get this screen at all, and iTunes will finish loading with a blank screen. All of my other computers can load iTunes perfectly fine. This error occurred directly following the iOS 5 update for my iPhone. Seeing as that the only computer affected was the one updating my iPhone, I figure there's some connection between the two. I have
cleared catche, cookies, everything
uninstalled and reinstalled all Apple software and components (and end processes)
completely deleted my iTunes library
tried creating a new account, but can't even do that becuase I can't connect to the store
tired de-authorizing and re-authroized the account
signing-out and signing back in
disabled parental controls
made sure I WASN'T behind a proxy server

Apple Support tried to help with my request but for some reason refused to listen to the notion that this problem occured because of an iOS5 update (and iTunes 10.5). The only thing I haven't done is wipe my harddrive, which seems to be the only option now.
Somebody please help.

ITunes/iPod error Message

Each time I connect my iPod to my computer I get the following error message
"There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive G:" Has anyone seen this error message as well and been able to fix?
Help is appreciated.

Well, first I'd update to the latest edition of iTunes (again). Might as well.
Then just drag the folder with all of your tunes into the program's main window. iTUnes should then show all of your music.
Now this is important:
Confirm that iTunes has all of your music. The next step is irreversible!
Once the music in iTunes, plug the iPod in. It'll ask you about replacing its contents with iTunes', which should no longer bother you. Hit Yes.

New IPOD - error message trying to use with itunes

Hi
Please can someone help. I just bought an IPod with Video but I cant even get any of the songs in my itunes library synched onto it. When I click on autosync I get the following error message
The IPOD "IPOD" cannot be used because it requires itunes version 7 or later.
It then tells me to go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version or itunes or install it from the CD that came with my ipod.
I have been back to the website and have tried reinstalling Itunes 7.02 but I still get the error message. When I right click on the autosynch button it tells me Internet explorer has encountered a problem and has to close...My Ipod was bought brand new via Amazon and didnt come with any disk....
I've followed the scant instructions and Im pretty computer literate so I dont know whats going on here but I dont seem to be able to get past this basic stage . Meanwhile my ipod is stuck on Do not Disconnect. What do I do. ? I seem to have itunes all set up and my WMA existing files converted and visible in my library. I even bought a new song to see if I could sync that but I get the same error message.. Please help....

When you plug in the iPod does it show up in iTunes before you get the message about needing iTunes7? Or do you get that message after plugging it in before it shows up in iTunes?

If that doesn't work, could you also take some time to pass some information for the Apple Engineers? Please copy and paste these questions into an email, make the subject of the email "iPod error report", add your answers, and send the email to Roy at Apple.
1. What error code are you seeing?
2. When are you seeing it (restoring or updating your iPod)?
3. Which iPod do you have?
4. What version of Windows do you have?
5. What Windows service pack do you have installed?
