IPOD NANO FAILED DURING UPDATE AND NOW NOT RESPONDING

HI,
I have an ipod 4gb nano. I had songs loaded on it and it was working fine. I downloaded the latest version of the ipod updater (2006-03-23) to update my ipod. During the update process the battery on my laptop died and now I cant do anything.
If I try and redo the update it just hangs. The ipod displays do not disconnect but doesnt do anything. I tunes is no longer recognising the ipod. All the songs from the ipod have been erased (I did not select restore when I initillay tried the update)
I can see the ipod from my explorer but it will not let me access the device it just hangs.
Can anyone advise me how to fix this so I can use it again.
My latop is running Windows XP.
Thanks

My iPod nano screen is frozen and will not respond. It shows the song which was playing is paused, but will not resume playing. I have held down all controls, and changed the slide switch, but nothing happens

Hi Goofy Goat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting for your iPod nano that is not responding. In this situation, if resetting it did not resolve, I would suggest restoring the iPod back to its factory settings and then sync your content back onto it from iTunes. Please use the following article as a resource for restoring.

IPod tough quit during update and now won't turn on or sync up

I was doing the recommened os6 update on my daughters IPOD touch last night and during the update it went to a light blue screen and now it won't do anything. When I hook it up to the computer it won't turn on it and it doesn't show up on itunes. I did the power/home button reboot and it still comes up with a blue screen.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

please help me my ipod nano 7g went off and will not start, this happened after I connect to my computer, my ipod will restart and I no longer turn on. what I do?

Hey saintbless,
Thanks for the question. The following article outlines troubleshooting information for iPod nano. While it mostly refers to the 6th generation, most steps apply for your model as well:
iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3474
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
- Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
- If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
- If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
- If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Photoshop failed to quit and is not responding

I've had a nasty problem for the past few days that seems to be getting gradually worse. ie it now happens within a few minutes of openning Photoshop, whereas before it was happenning after an hour or two of working on an image....
At some point while working on a moderately complex .psd (roughly 70mb with some 15 layers) Photoshop hangs and Force Quit Applications tells me that Photoshop is not responding. I can't identify anything particular that i'm doing that triggers it.... i use a fairly wide variety of tools and filters and the hang doesn't seem to be triggered by anything specific.
I force Photoshop to quit, and it disappears from the Force Quit Application list. However, after quitting, I cannot open .psd or .jpg files from Bridge or from Finder. Raw files open up ok from Bridge into Camera Raw. And, when I try to shut down or restart my machine i get: " Logout has timed out - The application Photoshop failed to quit and is not responding." so the only way to restart is to force a shut down with the power button. After restarting the Mac Photoshop works ok again for a a while and then the problem happens again.
I have repaired my disk permissions and run Diskwarrior over both my Mac HD ad the external Firewire drive where all my images live - which didn't identify anything out or the ordinary.
Any thoughts on what else I can do to eliminate this problem would be v gratefully received
I am working on a Dual-Core Intel MacPro with 9GB memory, running OS 10.4.11 and Photoshop CS3 10.0.1 and Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9

Neil, just for reference the Cron script problem was fixed in 10.4.2 and should be run on boot if they haven't already. This doesn't mean that running cocktail occasionally to make sure doesn't have value or to run the maintance scripts early doesn't help (it wont hurt).

The 3 Gb limitation is a limitation of 32bit operating systems and software. Photoshop can't address (use) more than 3Gb regardless of how much you have free or installed. OSX 10.4 is kind of 64bit but not completly, it has the ability to remap memory so EACH program can use a max of 3Gb. so in your case with 5ish Gb used PS is using 3Gb, Safari is using a bit and the OS is prob using most of the rest.
Looking at what you posted the only two figures your really interested in is the Used and Free (which add up to approx 9Gb). The fact that the used number doesn't change from the several files open and the liquify filter opening indicates to me that it has already grabbed as much memory as it can( it's using 3Gb of the 5.52, the rest is the OS etc).
Simply put PS IS running out of memory. You can help this by putting the memory allocation in the PS preferences higher (the OS will use other areas of memory so it wont cause a problem) and make sure the scratch disk is set to a drive with plenty of space. But keep in mind the Liquify filter is VERY memory intensive so you may not be able to use it with lots of files open.

Sorry to hear that the software update failed. Unfortunately, it sounds like you need to perform a software repair on your phone via Bridge for Mac.
Wait to connect the phone via USB cable to your Mac > In Bridge for Mac, click at Xperia > Repair Xperia device > Continue > Select your device.
Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to reinstall the software and complete the repair. Do not connect your phone until this guide tells you when and how to connect it.
Note that the phone should be powered off while doing this repair. Disconnect the phone from any kind of power source and hold down the ON/OFF + volume up(+) button for 5-10 seconds and you should force a shutdown.

TS1878 Disabled ipod due to passcode lock and will not respond at all to recovery steps. Original synced computer not got anymore. What else can I do? I don't care if data lost.

My eldest son gave my youngest son his ipod. He locked it with a passcode, couldn't remember and now it is disabled. Will not work trying to get it in recovery/restore mode. Original synced computer not around anymore, either is eldest. Not worried about losing data as my young son can have it now. What else can I try?? I follow the steps and it still says ipod is disabled on ipod screen. iTunes keeps saying it needs passcode.....

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
Next try placing the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

HT4972 ipod touch locked up during update and will not restore

My son was given an ipod touch by his cousin. He used it for a while and then decided to update the os. We followed the instructions but during the restore process the ipod shows the picture of cable connecting to itunes. It is connected but itunes does not see it and I can not get it to do anything else. I went to the apple store and spoke with them and they told me to do a hard reset and try again. I did to no avail. Does anyone have an idea of how to repair this???
