IPod got completly broken after system crash

Hello, I have a 4gb iPod Nano and I got a rather annoying problem. My computer got a complete lockdown while I had my iPod plugged in which somehow corrupted the whole iPod (I can't start it, and if I force it into disk mode I only get an error message saying that my computer cant read the selected drive). I have tried to restore it using the latest iPod updater.
Though I do believe its possible to just format it using Disk Utillity but I don't know if I should use any special name or format for it to be recognized as an "iPod". If someone could help me with this problem I would be very thankful.
-Daniel

Alright, because of some weird reason, I was able to restore the iPod this morning after a couple of reboots. I believe everything is fixed now and my iPod is alive again

  • AirPort partially broken after system crash

    Hi, before my system crash which caused me to force reboot it. My Internet Sharing from my Ethernet-to-computer-using-AirPort worked fine.
    Now. the Internet Sharing doesn't work because:
    No "Arrow Up" icon on top my AirPort icon on menu bar, I tried to uncheck then check "Internet Sharing" in Sharing preference pane but it still doesn't show up.
    "AirPort" network not showing up under the menu of Stat menu. Normally there's when AirPort was turned on.
    However the AirPort menu could detect secured wireless network from my neighbor.
    Here is the screenshot of my Network, I don't know what does yellow light next to AirPort indicated or if it's normal? I repaired permission and it doesn't help.

    Anyone has a clue? thanks!

    Obviously it's a bug.
    Previously I was using Chinese as the system language.
    After I switch back to English, the Internet Sharing can't understand the Chinese text(亿太网:Ethernet) that were remain selected in the Internet Sharing preference. I have to reselect it to make things work.

  • ICal digest authentication broken after system crash

    Our XServe crashed a few days ago. It rebooted fine and all services works like before the crash. Only iCal authentication is giving me a headache. Digest authentication isn't working. Kerberos works and Basic, but I need Digest to work too. For web-authentication, everything works too, and we know the password is correct.
    caldavd > access.log gives this:
    127.0.0.1 - username [09/Jan/2013:14:38:15 +0200] "PROPFIND /principals/ HTTP/1.1" 207 504 "-" "Mac OS X/10.8.2 (12C60) CalendarAgent/55" i=8009 t=8.0 or=2
    ApplePasswordServer.Server.log gives this:
    Jan  9 2013 14:38:15    AUTH2: {0x4785feb3473967ce0000007a00000416, username} WEBDAV-DIGEST authentication failed, SASL error -13 (password incorrect).
    ApplePasswordServer.Error.log gives this:
    Jan  9 2013 14:38:15    client response doesn't match what we generated
    Any ideas on what to look for? Caches or corrupt files to check?
    Thanks!

    Finally found the error. Somehow a setting for Digest authentication had changed to
    Calendar:Authentication:Digest:Qop = "auth"
    after changing it back to
    Calendar:Authentication:Digest:Qop = ""
    everything works well again!

  • Please help: fail to recover after system crash

    Hi all,
    I tried to start our directory server after system crash due to hardware failure. Error log shows:
    [17/Apr/2010:01:35:15 +0800] - WARNING<20488> - Backend Database - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - Detected Disorderly Shutdown last time Directory Server was running, recovering database.
    However, the recover process seems never ends (I waited overnight...). While CPU usage of ns-slapd grows continuously, the server has no response (e.g. ldapsearch waits forever). I make copies of db before starting ns-slapd and thus I tried several attempts:
    1. start as it is.
    2. remove db/log* and start
    3. remove db/log* and db/__db* and start
    4. remove db/* except db/NetscapeRoot and start
    All attempts have the same result - recovery goes on continuously.
    Then I tried to remove db/* and run restoreconfig with an old configuration backup. Then ns-slapd can be started. However, when I do ldapsearch testing:
    ldapsearch -h localhost -v -D"cn=directory manager" -b "" -s base objectclass= namingContexts
    ldap_init( localhost, 389 )
    Bind Password:
    ldap_simple_bind_s: Invalid credentials
    I'm sure the password is correct, and also tried modifying nsslapd-rootpw in config/dse.ldif and corresponding userPassword in configuration file created by saveconfig before restoreconfig.
    Again, all attempts have the same result - invalid credentials. I can see BIND cn=directory manager attempts in logs/access, but also see following line in logs/errors:
    [17/Apr/2010:21:59:08 +0800] - INFORMATION - conn=-1 op=-1 msgId=-1 - get_entry: entry cn=directory manager not found (error 32)
    I'd like to know:
    * if there any other method to make recovery process complete successfully?
    * if there is anything missed/wrong in the restoreconfig process?
    I tried several days but can't make it. Would anyone please help?
    Sorry that we're still using old versions 5.2 patch 5 on Solaris 5.9 on v440 machines...
    Thank you very much.
    /ST Wong ([email protected])

    I hope you have a export of LDAP data backup in LDIF format, if so, please stop the instance and remove all the files from your db directory which includes .db3 and log.* and __db* and then do a ldif2db.
    Once import is complete, start the slapd process.

  • File restore after system crash?

    I recorded several videos on my iPhone yesterday. One was 28 minutes long (almost 3 GB) so I deleted them from my phone as soon as I copied it into iPhoto. I was viewing the videos in iPhoto when my system crashed. After rebooting, the movies were gone.
    Is there any way these movies can be recovered? They've got to be on the hard drive somewhere.

    Try using a data recovery product such as the ones listed here. Don't write anything else to the drive until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.

  • Satellite M40: Win XP install after system crash- ser.number problem

    Hello there,
    i would like to ask you what shall i do. I bought new toshiba satellite m40 laptop about 5 years ago in London.
    There was no Win XP recovery cd (no recovery partition on hdd as well), just cd with toshiba drivers in the box. Now my system crashed.
    Took me long time to figure out what it was. (BSOD - "not ACPI compliant") I tried almost everything even HDD format.
    Later on i completely dismanteled laptop, cleaned the dust inside and it works again - no BSOD.
    Now i need to install my WinXP back. So i downloaded WinXP service pack 3 cd-rom and tried to install it.
    It wont take my serial number which i have on a sticker on my toshiba.
    Please help me, what shall i do?
    I paid for WinXP (system was included in price) and now i cannot use it.

    Well, i was in London just few months when i bought that laptop. The guy in the store told me the box include everything - it was the way they got it. I didn't know how it works in London (well except the robb of in an exchange office on victoria train station first day and another one paying for a laptop in Computer store which had branches all around London and the company crashed and did not pay me back) and it was my first (delivered) laptop as well. Of course i asked why there is no Win XP cd (or recovery). I used to have many destops before starting with old good 386@20MHz. I was very well aware that i really need installation cd of windows, do remember loads of system crashes of Win95 and Win98. Maybe somebody took it out of the box, who knows. I am just 100% sure it was not there. So i reconciled myself with it, was a newbee there, didn't want to make problems. My fault. Another one was not buying recovery program (or use of that toshiba recovery creator) to make image of hdd. Those days imaging system was quite a new thing as well-at least for me. Few days ago I tried toshiba support web to find recovery cd, even e-bay, etc. to find and buy it. No chance. I can try to call Toshiba UK support centre, but i guess it will be the same answer.
    You wrote your friend has got one as well, is it the type -225 ? Full name of it is: Toshiba satellite m40 -225. Different number means different hardware, but recovery cd of your friend might be compatible. Would it be possible to ask him to give/sale me an image of that disk? Toshiba support in my country cannot provide help or further info, is not comparable with the UK or US one. But thank you guys for answering me anyway! :-) Any idea welcomed.
    EDIT: BSOD (not ACPI compliant) is unfortunatelly back, laptop works just in really cold (-10 C) environment. Restoration CD would be logical step to go.

  • ? How to recover APPS from iTunes after system crash

    I think we need a sticky for this.
    Is there a tutorial or instructions to recover ALL your iPhone/iPod Touch apps from your PC or iTunes after a system crash and iTunes is no longer accessible even after uninstall and reinstallation? I heard one can call Apple Support and have them do a one time reset but for people like me who have more than one iTunes account that may be a problem since it would require several accounts.

    Ok....i have some good news, I believe. Using King_Penguin's link and Apple's KB seems to have worked. I tried this under another windows profile on the same machine. The TRICK is to hold down CTRL W when opening up iTunes. This will prompt you to tell iTunes where the library is. The key is to copy everything from your My MUSIC\ITUNES folder. More info here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1751
    What is throwing me off is there is another option to, "Create LIBRARY". Not sure how that works. But the instructions are here: When you need to restore your backed up iTunes Library from your external hard drive to your computer, follow these steps:
    1.Quit iTunes.
    2.Locate your external hard drive.
    Mac: On the Desktop or Finder sidebar.
    Windows: In My Computer
    3.Drag the iTunes folder (backed up earlier) from your external hard drive to whatever location you desire on your internal hard drive. It is recommended that you choose the default location for the iTunes folder, which is:
    Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\
    Windows Vista or Windows 7: \Users\username\My Music\

    It should be running in network account by default.
    You can run get-transportagent and check if there are any transport agents installed 
    If you find them then disable all the transport agents that you have installed on the Exchange servers by running disable-transportagents

  • FR seems to be gone after system crash

    Hi!
    I didn't find anything using the search function and I think my problem is a little bit peculiar.
    A while ago, I had a serious problem with my macbook pro. I wanted to reinstall the printer drivers but during installation it somehow deleted my OS X. Well, it was still there, but my MBP didn't recognize it anymore. So I reinstalled and told the setup routine to save the old data and install OS X completely. After that, I moved the old data like preferences and stuff like that back and overwrote the freshly installed files.
    But now, front row doesn't start. I can hit my remote as much as I want. Nothing happens. Even iTunes doesn't load up. But the remote works with iTunes. So I guess I have to reinstall Front Row or iTunes+Front Row. Can anybody tell my how I go about it?
    Or do I have to reinstall my whole system? I don't really like the idea, because I'm using boot camp and I have fear that I won't be able to access my windows installation when I completely reinstall the "old" mac os that I have on my CD. And I'm not looking forward to reinstalling all my software.
    I hope someone can help me.

    Front Row is not included when you re-install Mac OS X, it's an "additional" install. You will need to install Front Row itself, but the good news is that you don't need to re-install Mac OS X.
    Insert your Mac OS X install disk (no need to startup from this disk). Double-click on the "Install Bundled Software Only" option on that disk. (It may be called something else in German!) This install will walk you through several steps. At the "installation type" window you can click the "customize" button. Then you can check "on" or "off" all the additional bundled software like iPhoto, iDVD or iMovie but there is also an option to check "on" Front Row. If you don't need any of the other software re-installed, just check those items off and make sure Front Row is checked on. Continue the installer and when it's done, you should be able to use Front Row again.

  • Windows won't install after system crash

    My computer crashed a couple days ago (the atlon 64, of course), i think due to a virus.  I have fdisked and reinstalled several times.  Once it completed, but after i left it for a while (about 1 hour) i came back, it had restarted and was missing a .dll.  Multiple times it would hang at the "setup will complete in approximately: 39 minutes" screen, sometimes right away, sometimes after doing a partial install.  I am not a computer genius, but have exausted my ideas.  So what are yours?

    Hi
    I have seen my PCs sit for half an hour at 39 mins to complete, then suddenly find the device or driver they are looking for and continue, breathing on CD, and wiping with silk cloth can help reading.
    Go and watch TV for a while when it  does it, or another copy of XP.
