IPod Freezes any thoughts on how to reset it?

So my iPod randomly freezes and i cant do anything with it i just have to let the battery run dead. Now it seems like everytime i plug it into my computer, which i have done hundreds of times before, it also shows the Do Not Disconnect screen on the ipod but will never mount on my iTunes. So after waiting for a while each time i unplug and its frozen, cant do a thing with it until the battery dies. I have done the turn hold on then off, and hold down menu and select, also tried it with play and select. It will not reset. Plugged it back in to the computer, nothing. plugged it into the wall, nothing. I have tried to completely restore it, still does it.
The fact that it freezes ***** but i can live with that as long as i can reset it when it happens and at least continue to use it after it reboots itself.
Any one have any ideas?
thanks

  • I have tried to migrate between 2 iMacs but every time it stops at the 1 minute mark and freezes, any thoughts on how I can fix this?

    I have an iMac desktop from 2009 and a brand new one, I have them connected directly, migration assistant freezes every time at the one minute mark, any idea how to fix this?  it seems it has something to do with one of the profiles set up on the older computer.

    Need more info. What version of OS X is on the 2009 iMac? How are you connecting them? FireWire-Thunderbolt or Ethernet?

  • HT3275 I forgot my Time Machine password.  Any ideas on how to reset or recover?

    Any thoughts on how to reset my Time Machine password?

    Exactly which password are you referring to?
    People often use Time Machine and Time Capsule interchangeably.. but one is software and the other is hardware.
    Time Capsule password can be recovered or reset without difficulty.. Time Machine in later encrypted version.. no, the backup is rendered useless as Kappy says. There is no point having a password if there is a backdoor.
    Apple clearly warns if you encrypt a backup.. do not lose the password.
    See pink box at the bottom here.

    Try:
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • The front and back camera on my itouch second generation stopped working. Any thoughts on how to fix it?

    The front and back camera on my itouch second generation stopped working. Any thoughts on how to fix it?

    First, try to reset the device by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, set it up as new device again, explained in this article:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If still no luck, get it serviced, the issue might not be software related.

  • When I upgraded to IOS5, my playlists no longer appear on the iPOD.  When I do a Sync, the playlists appear, but will not sync to the iPOD.  Any suggestions on how to resolve??

    I would understand it if you checked email on your Mac, and then those messages were not available on your iOS devices if you had the advanced account setting "remove copy from server after retrieving message:" set to immediately. 
    I looked through my iPhone settings and don't even see an option to tell my phone to pull the only copy of a message and delete it from the server.
    Possibly there is another setting in Lion (I am running Snow Leopard still) that tells your Mac to only synchronize mail to your iOs devices and is not pulling mail directly from iCloud. 
    You could try disabling your current iCloud email account in Mac Mail, and adding a new one and just telling Mail it is a standard IMAP account (imap.mail.me.com incoming and smtp.mail.me.com outgoing).
    I did that for Leopard to get my email even to work after MobileMe is cancelled and it seems to work fine with my iPhone.
    If that doesn't work, you can delete that new email account and re-enable the temporarily disabled iCloud email account from above.
    Hope this helps.

    I forgot my security question and my rescue email are the same as Apple ID so cannot reset my security question. Any advice on how to reset m security or add a rescue email ? Thanks

    If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset you can use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|Previous Sh' | tail | open -ef
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
    A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.

  • I have an iMac5,1 with an intel processor.  For the last month or so, whenever I play a video from an outside source - e.g. YouTube, the picture jumps and breaks-up.  All of my software is up-to-date.  Any thoughts on how to fix this problem?

    You're welcome. As to checking speed go to http://speedtest.net/ and it will choose the closest server for you. BTW, whatever you do, don't click on the robot icon that says "Start Scan" or MacKeeper below that. Only use the speed test in the middle that has the button BEGIN TEST on it. It will run a download speed test first and then an upload speed test. The download test will give a much faster response.

  • HT1725 I purchased a album of various artist, however some of the songs did not download, an error message saying something about not having proper information to download??? any thoughts on how I get the songs I paid for but did not download?

    After purchasing a album of TV Theme songs, during the download some of the themes would not load, an error message came up saying to the effect I did not have the correct info to download.  Does anyone know about this issue & any thoughts on how I aquire the themes I paid for?  The themes that did not load still show up in the music list but are greyed out & have an "!" exclamation mark beside the number of the item in the list.

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Have situation on a unprotected wireless when accessing I cannot get a router address.  I'm on system 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro summer 2009.  Any thoughts on how to determine what's up?

    Have situation on a unprotected wireless when accessing I cannot get a router address.  I'm on system 10.6.8 on MacBook Pro summer 2009.  Any thoughts on how to determine what's up?

    You have basically verified that the issue is NOT with your MBP, but with this particular Wi-Fi network. Even though it may be unsecured, the provider may have elected to configure it for MAC filtering. In this case I am referring to the MAC (Media Access Control) address and not your Mac laptop itself. If this has been enabled, your Mac would only be able to connect if the Mac's MAC address was added to that filter.
