IPod no longer works after trying to update

I recently tried to get the software update on my iPod touch 4th generation. When I did the iPod restarted then gave me a completely white screen which I can't even force quit out of. Hooking up to the computer does not help, iTunes does not even recognize the iPod. When the battery is charged it will show the low battery screen but when it loads the black start up screen with the apple it gradually gets lighter until the screen is completely white. Please help I have no clue what to do from here!

fyi - i solved this by uninstalling and reinstalling my modem in device manager. perhaps all i needed to do was to clear the fields filled in with gobbeldygook by nokia's connectivity thing - not sure.

HT1414 Ipod Mini not working after trying to update to IOS7

Team Apple....HELP!
I recently tried to in tall the new IOS 7 on my Mini Ipad....but I get the connect to Itunes with USB cable on the screen.
I've intalled the latest updates to the OS on my MAC Laptop and the latest version of Itunes.
Itunes saw a system that needed to be restore and took two hours to down load something (sorry, can't recall). After the down load, I'm still stuck with the conect to Ituense with USB cable on the screen.
Ok, I've tried all the below intsrutction from these links, with no success:

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Apogee Jam No longer working after 1.1 update?

My apogee jam is no longer working after updating to Garageband 1.1. I have an Ipad 2 with firmware 4.3.3.
Specifically what happens is:
1. I open the garageband app
2. I select the guitar amp
3. I plug the Jam chord into Ipad (guitar is already connected to cord)
4. Jam light goes green, blue, bright green then green
When Jam light goes bright green, the monitor button in garageband goes dim and doesn't work.
I've tried plugging my guitar in first, then starting garageband, no difference in results.
I have tried turning the monitor "on" prior to pluging in the jam, when I do this the monitor/sound gate window stays open until the Jam bright green goes on, then it disappears and the monitor button goes dim.
Outside the garageband app, the ipad does recognize the Jam in settings, general.
What's worse (for me...) is that I backed up the Ipad in itunes thinking that app data would also be backed up (as I read that in a description of backup). I then deleted garageband from the ipad and then restored it from itunes. Guess what, lost all my songs... Bummed out... Why wouldn't my songs be backed up???
Anyway, any ideas on the Jam issue would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping I am just overlooking a setting?

Unfortunately, I don't believe that Apple keeps prior versions of Apps available at the store. GB was the first app I purchased there day one of my Ipad, incredibly worth the $, and I did actually look to see if you could go back legitimately.This is just one of the many reasons to JBreak your devices, so that you can go backward if you need to. This is a perfect example of why Apple should make prior versions available, but they think they know it all and never make mistakes, so that will never happen. Again, this is why folks take things into their own hands and why the scene exists. There are plenty of abuses, more than not IMO, but here is a perfect example of how people are screwed and can't use their Jams any longer without a JBroken device. They obviously know that this issue exists, they have employees on these forums. It will be months if ever they fix this issue, because the number of owners of Jam, although in the thousands, is small potatoes compared to the Apple owner universe. I believe it will only be fixed if Apogee is able to put enough pressure on Apple. If you see the Jam removed from the Apple store and GB site you know that Apple is choosing not to fix it, because they won't sell or promote it directly and then have to deal with complaints and returns. But even this will happen slowly...
Actually it occurs to me that Apogee may have to redesign the Jam AGAIN in order to get it working with 1.1 on Ipad 2 and Iphone 4s (devices with the newer processor). I wonder if they will recall or replace the Jams for people who now have Jams not compatible with Garageband. Again, Apple should be posting a warning for Jam owners on the Garageband download page, but that will never happen because Apple doesn't care about small potatoes.

HELP! iPod no longer works after update

I've been using my 20gb clickwheel ipod without incident for a year now, my last update had been iTunes 5 and hadn't updated my iPod recently either (why bother..it worked fine?).
I wanted to purchase music from the iTunes music store, but it wouldn't let me unless I upgraded to iTunes 6 and updated my iPod. OK - so I did that- upgraded iTunes to 6.0.1 and updated tghe iPod using the latest updated dated 2005-10-12. Then the horror begins.
On the first attempted synch post update - my iPod screen turned into a folder/exclamation point icon and stopped working. I tried resetting by holding down the center button and menu..it restarted and went back to the same folder/exclamation point icon. No luck.
I've tried restoring it repeatedly and then synching my library back to the now clean and restored iPod and it stops synching at different points and crashes (after 31 songs - crash iTunes - iPod freezes on the "Do not disconnect" screen - strange clicking noise - restore - try again - 58 songs...same... restore ..again...45 songs.. you get the picture).
It worked fine BEFORE the update except I couldn't purchase music. There has been NO change except installing the updates (it hasn't been jostled, dropped or anything). What can I do? The update killed my iPod?!!!! I am at my wits end!!!!!!
-Tory

OK..I've tried many things and my iPod is still hosed after updating. I upgraded my Mac to Tiger. I was told that the there might be some issues with synching using firewire with the new update - so I bought a USB cable and tried synching with that.
I have the same issue as before. I can restore the iPod, but when I start synching my music from Itunes back to the blank, restored iPod - it synches up anywhere from 20-200 songs and then freezes (spinning beach ball on one song halfway synched for an hour - then force quit iTunes - and start all over again: restore, synch, crash).
You know, I got burned by the 1st generation 5gb iPod battery issue, then the headphone jack stopped working on my 2nd generation, now my monochrome clickwheel iPod freaks out after Apple forces me to update so I can get my paid music back (it removed, yes, REMOVED my purchased songs because I was still using an older version of iTunes - when I updated to 6 I got them back - how Microsoft is THAT?).
I am really losing my faith in Apple's ability to make a quality product.I am despondent. If anyone has any advice - I would be most grateful...

Ipod won't work after trying to install Paid 2.0 update

I bought the 2.0 update for my 16 gig ipod touch. After trying to install the update through itunes half way through the update it gave me the message "The ipod could not be restored. An Unknown error occured (6)." I tried to do a restore on the ipod it it does the same thing. Can anyone help? Now after paying for an update I have an ipod that doesn't work at all.
I tried doing a restore using the old software on a different itunes library and get the same error message.
Any suggestions?
Thanks Larry

ok i have figured out how to fix this problem!! it is simple. make a new account on your computer. Now use the itunes on that account and just plug ur touch in and restore it. It will restore it to the software 1.1.4 . now just go back to your main account on ur computer and plug ur touch in once again and it will restore it to its original settings and sync all your songs and videos and the rest.
I followed the above instructions. Let Itunes 7.7 set itself up on the new account and downloaded the update. The first attempt didnt work but the second attempt after I rebooted the PC I logged in on the new user and booted up Itunes.
When that had finished faffing about I connected the USB cable into another USB port (above the one its just come out of if you get my drift) and it started extracting the software for Restore then it started prparing the ipod for for restore and then started uploading the software to the ipod in which it had not done it before. As I type it has just finished synching the ipod with my current Itunes library on my default windows account.
I am running the update but will have to enter my contacts details again but hey thats no big deal.
So I hope you all get yours to work.

Onboard Mac Lan no longer works after 1.9 update!!!

I was using bios v1.8 and both my Mac Lan and my Giga Lan were working perfectly fine. Now that i updated to v1.9 my Mac Lan no longer works but my Giga is fine!!!
My Mac Lan still gets an ip address from my router, but i cannot ping the router nor anyone else on the network and my internet does not work!! So right now im using my Giga lan but i want my other one working like it was.
I tried going BACK to v1.8 but it did not fix the problem, so i went back yet again to v1.9 and im still left with the same problem. Ive tired disabling it and re-enabling it in both the bios and in windows and still nothing. Ive also tried re-installing the drivers and that did not work either. I even ran a Winsock Fix but that didn't fix the problem either.
Is anyone else having this problem besides me? what can i do to fix it???

Download new bios and extract it to a directory where you can find it (root of c:\ if you are lazy like me). Run wminfo if you are paranoid about losing your mac address and copy it down for your nvidia adapter.
Restart windows in safe mode. Close every application down in task manager.
Run winflash as described below and CHECK ALL THE RIGHT BOXES TO UPDATE BOOTBLOCK AND TO CLEAR THY CMOS. Read Syar's description below as that is what I used:
Quote from: syar2003 on 30-July-05, 00:24:48
No , floppy flash is not neccesary !
Can use
C:\Program Files\MSI\Live Update 3\FlashUty\Award
winflash.exe
Place checkmarks on bootblock/dmi area/update all/clear cmos
During flashing you see it will verify the programming of the bios chip .
And the good thing is unlike dos flash you can redo it if it fails , just by starting taskmanager and kill winflash.exe
and start over (as long as the machine isn't powered down or restarted).
I always say no after the flashing when asked to restart , exit the winflash utility , make a normal shutdown , turn off PSU for 10 seconds , then turn back
on , enter bios and load optimized default , followed by a boot to build/update dmi pool .
Kill all unwanted apps in the systemtray before running winflash and dont have any other applications running .
Best way is to boot to windows safemode .

How come my mini iPad is not working after trying to update apps?

My mini iPad is repeatedly showing me a black screen with a, "white apple," in the middle & then a couple of minutes later it turns off for a few minutes. Then the black screen with the, "white apple," in the middle comes back on again and then it goes black again. Sometimes the black screen would lighten and the whole pattern of these "screens" would start over again. It's been doing this for hours since I fell asleep.
This happened when I was trying to update 4-5 apps at the same time. It had trouble updating the, "Pinterest app." It failed once and I retried it and that's when my mini ipad started to not work. I can't use it at all. I never had trouble updating several apps at one time before. I was at home using my wifi and my wifi strength was at its maximum for the iPad.
The battery was at 40 something%, so I charged it over night. It has the latest iOS update software. I had downloaded that yesterday.
I plugged it into iTunes on my computer and the same thing is happening. It's picking up my icloud stuff like my music and videos and my computer is trying to import photos from my mini ipad automatically, but my iPad isn't fully recognizable on iTunes. I get 2 error messages. One says, "iTunes was unable to load data class information from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later." I also get an error when trying to import photos (just to try it out). The other error message says, "The iPad cannot be sync because this iPad cannot be found."
And so, I unplugged it and plugged it back in and I get the same response. My iTunes is the latest version.
I don't have warranty on this iPad and I spent like $500 on this one. I'm kinda worried...?
Any kind of response would be appreciated....

Synchronize By Audio No Longer Works After 7.2 Update

After installing the Premiere Pro CC 7.2 update, the synchronize by audio no longer works correctly. When you highlight the clips and sync by audio it acts like it's doing something but then puts the clips nowhere near close being a match (usually one clip on one side of the timeline and the one on the other).
Is anyone else having this issue? I've run into it on two seperate computers bothe running Premiere Pro CC 7.2 on Windows 8.1 machines.
- Dennis

Bumping this. I'm a brand new CC subscriber and the sync function was a big part of why I moved to CC. 50% of the time it works, but the rest of the time, it pushes the video clip much farther down the timeline.
Update 1: To clarify, I am doing this from the sequence itself. So tracks A1/V1 are the original audio/video from camera, then A2 is my sound I want to sync.
It does not seem to have a problem syncing the same "problem" clips when I use the "Merge" by Audio from the Bin.
Update 2: I found that, if I unlink the original A1/V1 clip, then select all three (A1/V1/A2) and Synchronize, it works.
Obviously, this is an unacceptable workflow, but I hope that helps Adobe figure out what's going on here.

Speakers no longer work after Mountain Lion update.

After my update of Mountain Lion my speakers in my macbook pro no longer work. The speaker symbol is grey and the volume can't be moved. Anyone else have this issue?

Seems there is no real solution to this problem. If you have a time machine backup you can go back to 10.7.2.
Since I did the clean install of 10.7.2, I don't have any audio problems. My MacBook Pro now runs smoothly. I guess I stick with 10.7.2 until 10.7.4 is released.
You can also try some of these suggstions: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3705456?start=15&tstart=0
Hope you get your audio working.

Voice memo on iPhone 4 no longer works after iOS 6 update.

Since updating to iOS 6, voice memo no longer works. It kills itself upon launch. If it doesn't do it automatically, it does it once I hit any of the buttons in it (i.e. record). I've tried hard reset and regular restart. Haven't tried restoring because I noticed it on my way to work.
Anyone else have this problem?

I went to Apple and they helped me restore my phone to see if that would solve the problem and it did. Essentially restoring wipes your phone and you start from scratch. I was able to "restore from backup" and so I didn't lose anything.

ITunes error - will not work after trying to update to 7.2, then to 7.3

I have tried to update to both 7.2 and to 7.3, but both updates have failed. Now I am stuck on 7.1 with an error, where my iTunes will not operate and I cannot uninstall because it comes up with the same error that I get when I try to install or uninstall.
Below are links to images of the errors:
Here is the error I have currently:

Here is the error I get when I try to reinstall, update or uninstall:
http://i7.tinypic.com/6he0ft0.jpg
I would appreciate your assistance!

It sounds as though you need this article on trouble installing iTunes:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
You need the section at the end after "Important: A majority of customers..."
I think you need to do a full removal of iTunes and quciktime with clean up. But the important bit is to clean up the installer files with the MS Installer Clean Up Utility.
If cleanup doesn't seem to work, it is worth checking you have the right version of the Windows installer. If you find it in add remove programs, it should say "Windows Installer 3.1 (KB893803)"
