IPOD is corrupt and will not restore (gives me 1418 error)

My iPod has been corrupted. Each time I try to restore it gives me an error (1418) and indicates it cannot restore. I have downloaded the latest version of itunes and I still get the same error. Any ideas what to do next? Thanks in advance.

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It contains a few other tips beyond installing the latest iTunes that may be of some help: Error 1415, 1417, 1418, or 1428 when restoring or updating an iPod in iTunes 7 or later

  • Ipod "corrupted" and will not restore following logging on to itunes

    Please please help!! I have recently bought 2 ipod classic's (120GB). I have previously had MP3 players and all of my music has been in either wma or mp3 format on the computer (through windows media). i have managed to convert all 500+ albums over to itunes but my ipod is now apparently corrupted "code 1439". I have tried everything on the apple website and it will not restore to factory settings. Th ipod itself is saying 0KB free even though there is nothing on it. I tried to download music from itunes and it got to three albums and then crashed. This is my second ipod, having sent the previous one back to the retailer. If anybody can help then it will be greatly appreciated. Computer runs on windows XP pro, Norton 360 installed, and all of my music is still in Windows media as well.
    Cheers

  • Ipod shows usb arrow to itunes ,will not resound ,and will not restore give error1604

    I have been trying to restore a Ipod I purchased used and during the first attempt the computer went into hibernation before it had finished and now the Ipod is locked up and I can not get it to complete the restore.  the code I keep receiving is 1604.  I have troubleshooted this code and it says that there is a issue with the usb cable or port, this is not the issue because I have tried 2 differen computers and 2 different cables.  Also when I plug into charge the ipod it will not show the charge icon will only show the usb arrow to itunes.

    If you tried everything here:
    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

    Hello hskod,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting encrypted backups
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5162
    You can keep trying to restore the device from backup until you remember the password. If you're having trouble, try:
    Leaving the password field blank
    Your Apple ID password
    Your computer account password, if you have one
    Email passwords you may have used
    Your Wi-Fi network password
    Website passwords you may have used
    A password for hard-disk encryption software, if you use it
    Have a nice day,

  • Ipod touch 4th generation will not restore

         My ipod touch 4th generation will not restore. It begain with a random problem with the device. I tried to open a application but the application would blink a few times then would not open. This was so for ALL of the applications. I then powered of my device to try and reboot it. The Apple logo will apear for about 5 seconds but then the sreen will go black and the Apple logo will apear again. I tried to reboot several times and it did not work. I then connected my device to my computer but it would not appear in Itunes. The only way for the device to appear was for me to put it into DFU mode by holding down the home and power button for 10 seconds. My Itouch would have the connect to Itunes on it. It was then reconized by Itunes. Itunes message appeared telling me that i need to restore my Ipod. I tried restoring the Ipod, but after the update downloaded a error would appear while it was going through the restoration proccess.
         My Ipod is under the one year warrenty and i also had purchased an extended two year warrenty for my Ipod. I do not know what i should do.

    ok i will my friend has my ipod right now but If it doesn't still work ill get the error number tomorrow.

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro gets corrupted and will not open

    After a month or so Adobe acrobat gets corrupted and will not open, so I have to uninstall it and reinstall it again. I am using windows 8 64bit professional version. Even the updates did not solve the problem.

    The advantage of the repair if it works is that you don't have to repeat the updates. AA X is currently at 10.1.7. The best way to do the updates is typically from the Help>Updates selection. They can also be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (or MAC equivalent) and installed in order -- most are not cummulative.

  • Have CS6, Master Suite.  The Application Manager program is corrupted and will not run. What to do?

    I have CS6, Master Suite.  The application manager program is corrupted and will not load.  What can I do?

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    If you see the "Purchased" option on the main screen of the iTunes Store, here's what I'd do:
    1) Go into your library and delete the file if it downloaded. If not, go to your downloads and delete it from there to stop it from download.
    2) Go to the Purchased pane in the main iTunes Store section, locate the item, and try the download again.
    Also, you may wish to turn off any anti-virus or anti-malware programs before you try this again, as that sometimes is what can be blocking the download. Otherwise, contact iTunes Store Support:

    My purchases were corrupted and will not download, what do I do?, My purchases were corrupted and will not download, what do I do?

    If restarting the computer and iTunes doesn't work you can try one of these suggestions.
    1. If items appear (maybe in grey or different from working songs) but don't play you can try to delete them from your library so they will no longer seem to be there to the iTunes store. 
    a) select the item
    b) press option and delete key assuming a mac keyboard
    c) yes, send them to trash
    d) restart Itunes, go to store, check for available downloads, and select download all

  • Hi, my iphone 5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error codes 2001 and 2006 appear.  Please help.

    Hi,
    My iPhone5 will not restore through iTunes.  Error code 2001 appears and once I received error code 2006.  Please help?

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
