IPod hasn't worked since 3.1.3 update

Has anyone else had problems with their iPod after updating the software to 3.1.3? I plugged in my iPod Touch to the PC a few days ago to upload some new music and decided to follow the prompts to update the software. Big mistake.
The iPod hasn’t worked since: I can’t get any further than the screen with the Apple logo. I have restored the device several times and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. Plugging the iPod to a different computer suggests the files are copying over from iTunes to the iPod normally – but I can’t access them through the device itself. In fact, I can’t get the iPod to do anything at all.
Any thoughts anyone?

Maybe it's all that Underoath you put on it... okay, okay. Jokes aside!
Is it under warranty? Yes? Send it in. No? Well, at least you can play around trying to fix it and not risk voiding the warranty.
How long have you had the ipod? Which model? Did you try restoring it in itunes? (I realize you've had trouble getting the computer to recognize it, but it's worth trying it in case it helps!)

I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device.

I noticed that Find My iPhone on iCloud hasn't worked since iOS 8 came out. Whenever I try to use it, it always says "All Devices Offline." This is regardless of whether I am in a good Wi-Fi zone or not. I like to use Find My iPhone to remotely track my battery charging status whenever my phone is charging in a different room. That's been really handy, which is why I really need to get this fixed. No matter what computer I use, the problem is always the same.
My device uses iOS 7. My question is: do I need to upgrade my device? If not, what should I do? I do not wish to upgrade my device, especially considering the bad things I've heard about iOS 8.
Feedback would be welcome ASAP.

You don't need to update to iOS 8 to use Find My iPhone. If you haven't already tried, go to Settings>iCloud>Find My iPhone and turn it off, then reset your phone (hold the sleep/wake and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release). After it restarts, turn Find My iPhone back on and see if it works properly now.

Facetime between MacBook Air and iPad2 worked only one time, then hasn't worked since..

My husband and I are trying to use Facetime since we are living apart this summer. It worked once before I left town, but hasn't worked since then.
I have a MacBook Air, OSX 10.6.7
He has an iPad 2
Both have Facetime set up. We share the apple Id between the machines, but the apple id has been deleted as a contact email from the iPad.
The Air can call the iPad; but when my husband tried to accept the call, it just keeps saying "connecting" or something like this. The call doesn't go thru.
The iPad cannot seem to reach the Air (I don't see that the iPad has called me).
I am often using a university wifi system, so i thought firewalling might be a problem, but my roommate doesn't have an issue with it for her facetime (she is using an iPad).
Any ideas?

Update: Above roommate just tried Facetime with me (she has an iPad). The exact same thing happened as with my husband...my call to her showed on her iPad but the call didn't connect. Her call to me didn't even show up on my machine. So, it appears to be an issue with my MacBook Air...

My Microsoft Word for Mac hasn't worked since I downloaded Yosemite. documents can't be save, edited or closed

My Microsoft Word for Mac hasn't worked since I downloaded the upgrade to Yosemite. Documents can't be saved, edited or closed

Hi There,
I have similar issues with the whole MS Office solution since I "upgraded' towards Yosemite:
when I use Cmd+W or the "close" menu option to close a Word file, Word crashes down (I always send a message to Microsoft but I guess this is more related to Yosemite or to its installation; consequence is it become very difficult to close a file, as it re-opens it the next time :-(
same thing for Excel and PowerPoint
When I try to save in PDF format a Word file containing several sections, it produces one PDF file per section - wasn't before Yosemite
Excel crashes down much more often than before because of lack of memory
Well, if someone has a suggestion, I would be grateful, 'cause it is becoming actually boring - and counter-productive !

My iTunes match on my MacBook Pro hasn't worked since Mountain Lion install. Tried Apple Tech but all their suggestions didn't solve the issue. Guess I will try them again on Monday. Clearly this is a common problem and a Mountian Lion conflict issue.

iTunes match hasn't worked since Mountain Lion install. Cloud icon keeps striking~ off. Won't upload new tracks to iTunes match. Just the eternal circle of step one, two, freeze....then tries again but never gets completed. Worked fine before Mountain Lion. Apple tech tried over phone for an hour but it didn't solve this issue. See others are in the same boat. Any help with this, please??

Same issue here with a MacBook pro recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. I hadn't tried iTunes Match prior to the upgrade so can't say whether or not it worked previously.
Getting quite frustrated!

That's too bad.
If/when help is truly desired, try providing some specifics of what is occurring, such as any errors that may occur when attempting to print and what specifically is attempting to be printed.

ive let the battery drain itself then recharged it to see if that would make a difference - no difference
Help ASAP needed

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

My I message is not working, since IOS 8.3 update.

My messages is not working properly, since IOS 8.3 update. Message are left hanging as undelivered. When I tap on "try again" nothing happens. Even messages to known contacts with I phones, appear in green and does not get delivered anyway. I have reset my i phone several times to no avail. I like my I phone 6+ as a camera. All other functions are less than impressive.

Hello Boberoone,
That is interesting that you are not able to get Siri to respond to you. It could be a microphone issue or maybe an internet connection issue but to start you on your way of resolving this, take a look at the article below.

Voice commands not working since V2.3.340 update

Voice Commands has stopped working since the upgrade. When voice commands is activated, it flashes a "please wait" screen then goes back to my home screen. I tried power reset and data clear for the voice commands app. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Recently, I also had a small issue with Voice Command on my Droid X. Although, it wasn't the same as your issue.
My issue was with the audio response of Voice Command. Voice Command could understand me but the Voice Command "voice" was muted and not available.
I eventually traced the cause to the Droix X being "paired" with a Panasonic "Blue Tooth" 6.0 Land Line telephone system.
Turning off Bluetooth on the Droid X corrected the Voice Command audio issue.
I am sure it could have also been corrected by "un-pairing".
So, my point of posting is to keep searching for the cause. It's there somewhere. Have you done the 30 second Battery Pull procedure?

IPod Touch 3g worked perfectly up until recent update :(

Greetings to all!
My iPod touch was working perfectly and very smoothly until a recent update was suggested when I plugged it to my iTunes. This update seemed to have ruined my iPod touch's smoothness.
I do not know why, but every time I go in to view my videos the unit either freezes up and automatically exits from video view mode or the viewing is stuttering and the stop, forward and rewind controls do no work or work with a great deal of hesitation and sometimes even no response or delayed response to my finger touch.
Any reasons why this is happening?
I have a 3g 64gb iPod touch and about half is still unused.
Thank you kindly in advance for you assistance.
Shakuhachi.

Hi there,
thanks for your help in the above matter.
It took me a while to do all the above, and none of them seem to have worked!
The video functions still do not operate smoothly! The pause, and play still stutters too much. I used to use my ipod for a quick presentations to prospects, but it just is more of a hassle to pull up a video and getting going!
Any other suggestions?
Much appreciate your help.
