Ipod is Frozen:  Does Not Want to Charge and Be Recognized By The PC

Yesterday, while I was charging I noticed that the charging sign appeared and the meter was not moving. The charging sign is black not the colored one that we normally see in the 5th gen. Sometimes the apple logo appears and that's it. It's basically a frozen apple and the pc does not recognize it. I can not reset it either. Anything I should do before i smash this? Thanks.

Try a different USB port, if that doesn't work reinstall itunes.

    Hello Apple.
    It seems you have gone to great lengths to improve accessibility in many areas of the iPad. Why was this obvious problem with icon text size missed?  (It's not with the Mac.). And for so long too.
    Do you employ people with actual accessibility problems to help you do UI design?
    I think too, that some buttons are too close for people who might have motor control problems.
    I love my iPad but I fear as I age, the iPad might not keep up with me.

  • IPod 5th Generation does not want to turn on

    It was working fine the day before; plugged it in to charge like normal. Yet this morning when it was completely off; I thought it was probably my charger so I borrowed my moms; and the iPod kept turning on and off as in the apple logo kept popping off and on.. The problem is that its off so when I pressed the home and power button at the same time the apple logo popped up, but it lasted for a minute or so and then it completely turned off again.
    Could there be a problem with my iPod and I need to go get it fix? or is there a solution I can do to fix it?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer

  • Windows O/S running in the virtual machine has frozen does not want to shut down

    Our old Windows-based PC is a virtual machine on our iMac (it is accessed using VMWare Fusion 2). The Windows XP Home Edition O/S froze when booting, and cannot be shut down by sending a Ctrl-Alt-Del or Force Quitting VMWare Fusion. Putting the iMac in Sleep mode or restarting it makes no difference.  The virtual machine is still in a suspended state, and there appears to be no way of either getting it to finish booting the Windows O/S or shutting it down.  Any ideas as to how to unfreeze it?  At this point in time, all I want to do is get back into the Windows side, rescue any data files I need, and stop using the virtual machine.

    VMware Fusion issues should be posted in the VMware Fusion forums:
    http://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/desktop/fusion?view=discussions
    That said, you can "Force Shut Down" a virtual machine by holding down the Option key, then clicking on the Virtual Machine Menu.  "Shut Down" becomes "Force Shut Down".
    More than likely what you'll need to do is hold the Option key, then choose "Force Restart" to get Windows to boot again.  Then use "Force Shut Down" to power off the VM, if a normal shut down does not work after that.  Do NOT close the VM window, or put the Mac to sleep as this will initiate another suspend procedure.

  • My laptop does not want to charge

    My laptop had started to shut off on its own. At this time the battery light and the plug light had been on. As I had went to unplugg the ac adapter from the computer the screen had started to brighten and then dim a few times. Alot like when it does if you unplugg it then plug it back in when you have the settings to dim when not in charge. It would come on for a little while like this and now it does not come on at all. Also the lights for the plug and the battery does not come on when when it is plugged in. Is it the power jack on the laptop, the ac adapter, or is it something else entirely like the motherboard that could be causing this?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    All three of those could be possible culprits.
    First, what model do you have? There should be a label on the bottom of the notebook.
    Turn off your laptop, unplug all wires, remove the battery, and hold the power button for thirty seconds. Afterwards, reattach the battery and connections. If it still won't start, remove the battery and start with just the AC power. Next try without the AC power and just the battery. Also, check that the RAM is inserted securely. Instructions can be found in your user's guide if you need.

  • Z10 does not want to charge with AC after update

    Hi, please can anyone help.  After the newest software update (Im now on 10.2.0.424 ) my Z10 does not charge if plugged into an wall socket.  I can only charge via my pc or laptop.  This is very annoying as I charge my phone at night time.  How do I fix this......
    Thank you
    Louise
    PS : How do I get into the battery settings ?

    It may have something to do with the update and it could also be the night time charging (not really recommended)
    Try a reset:   When powered on hold down the power button for 10 seconds.
    If it does not help post back, someone else may have another solution.
    Also consider the below if you do not find a solution.
    You can restore your phone to factory settings if you wish to see if it corrects your issue. Resetting to factory settings will wipe out all your data so you should save it first. To save all your stuff download and install BlackBerry Link on your computer from the link below. Resetting will not back-up the OS on your phone. Once you have downloaded and installed BlackBerry Link connect your phone to your computer and save your stuff. Once saved disconnect your phone from the computer.
    To reset your phone: tap the Settings App, scroll down and tap Security and Privacy, tap Security Wipe, tap the blank box and enter blackberry.
    Once Wiped reconnect your phone to your computer and install your stuff.

  • 'Hello' does not want to compile and interpret

    I recently downloaded the latest JDK Update 12 from the sun website.
    I typed the basic hello program. The problem is in the compiling and interpreting of the program. In the command prompt, I made a new directory(folder) titled javacoding; in which I also saved the source code for the hello world program. After which i switched to it and I set the path of bin containing the compiler and interpreter to this directory. I typed in the following; javac Hello.java.
    I set the path thus: C:\javacoding> set path =%path%;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin;.;
    However, the program does not compile and the following message is displayed instead:
    'javac' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
    Here is a sample of the program I typed
    class Hello
    /*This program displays Hello*/
    public static void main (String args[])
    //This is the main method
    System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    For the record this was done on a Vista system.
    Thank you.

    Presuming that the OP (that's you Ikenna) is a system administrator on there own box, then just set the system PATH... all users will pick it up from there... also setting at the user-level just appends a useless duplicate entry to the PATH, slowing down (unsucessful) path-searches... not that you'd notice.
    *@OP:* Show us a dir of your jdk-bin directory... we'll need the exact command and it's output (at least down to javac.exe)... Question is: Is that directory exactly what's in your PATH? so also show us the command and output of echo %PATH% ... just post the whole command session (typos and all) between a pair of {code} tags.
