Ipod not an ipod any more

my ipod did the exclamation point and folder bit for awhile, after a restore i could reload songs from itunes but it was really slow and would make two different comp freeze. tried one more time on the mini and now it comes up on the desktop as a removable drive. ipod updater doesn't recognize it as an ipod anymore. How do i get the ipod firmware back on this thing if updater cant see it? or do i now have a spare 20 gig drive?

after reset of ipod and restart of comp still the same results. it is recognized by itunes as an ipod and says "iTunes had detected a software update for the iPod 'Untitled'. Would you like to install it now?" and gives the cancel or OK buttons. An updater comes up but over the the updater is window says "An unexpected error occorred." and an OK button. The icon on the desktop isn't for an ipod, it just a generic icon labeled "untitled".

    My IPad 2, IPhone 3GS ans iPod  no longer work with apple TV, I have 2 apple TV in my house and for he last 3 weeks the iPod was the only one we could use for appleTV now none of them works, the apple TV icon does not show up any more. Re-started everything.

    Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
    RESPONSES:
    1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC.  I simply used the same iTunes login and account.  I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store.  If I click "Download Previous Purchases"  text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
    2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered.  I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam.  Good response for you.  Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome.  I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
    QUESTIONS:
    3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download?  Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
    SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU... 
    I work in the computer support section for the Military.  The only problem is we use Windows , lol.  Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover.  I go back next month though I hope.  But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein.  Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself. 

  • Why does my ipod not complete playing any song?

    Why does my ipod not complete playing any song?

    Do they play OK in iTunes on the computer?
    How long to they play
    Try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Hello neegie
    Try putting your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. After that then test it out. If during the restore you get and error code, check it against the second article for further assistance.

    PC with Windows 7 64-bit, Lightroom 5.7.1 64-bit installed.
    What I have done:
    I downloaded the newest LR 5.71 and installed it again - mode repair; without success

    I restarted the PC and than I installed the LR 5.7 again - repair
    Trouble 1:
    Two days ago I could work with my LR 5 and to import pictures from a SD was no problem. Now I can start LR 5 and I can watch/modify pictures, but as soon as I try to import new pictures LR 5 stops and gives the message "your LR 5 64-bit does not work correctly - searching for solution". I have not changed anything in my computer since lasttime LR 5 worked properly, only the registry was optimized by Norton 360.
    Trouble 2:

  • ITunes gives me an error and asks for re-installation, the error is "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library coreMedia.dll", and the iTunes can not be lunched any more

    iTunes gives me an error and asks for re-installation, the error is "The procedure entry point CMBlockBufferCopyDataBytes could not be located in the dynamic link library coreMedia.dll", and the iTunes can not be lunched any more.
    can you please help, as I also tried to re-install it but pr

    Entry point errors can often be fixed by deleting the offending dll, then repairing the component it is part of. CoreMedia.dll is part of Apple Application Support.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
    Or roll back to the previous build:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

  • If my MAC book pro is not under warranty any more can i still send it back to apple to get it repaired

    If my MAC book pro is not under warranty any more can i still send it back to apple to get it repaired

    Yes, but you should consider this.
    A: Laptops usually last only about 4 years.
    So if you take your investment into the machine + add any software that can't be transferred to a new machine and divide that by 4, you'll get the per year value.
    Take that and estimate how many years of value you have left, then judge if the repair is going to be worth getting that remaining few years left or not.
    For instance if you have $2800 invested in a machine, that's $700 a year and it's 3 years old, that means it's likely to have only $700 of value left, so it makes little sense to spend a lot to get that remaining $700. Sell it for parts and apply the funds to a new machine.
    I suspect you upgraded a older machine to 10.7 and it likely killed it.

    Once an item enters the download queue, the user cannot remove it. Either let it complete the download (easiest) or contact the iTunes Store customer support department through the Contact page  and ask them if they'll remove the item(s) from your queue for you.

  • Dear all,     Since  Friday morning the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth of my iPhone 4S have not been wirking any more. They appear as "unactive". I restored the system, updated it to 7.0.4., but nothing changed. Can anyone please help me?

    Dear all,
    Since  wednesday  morning the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth of my iPhone 4S have not been wirking any more. They appear as "unactive". I restored the system, updated it to 7.0.4., but nothing changed. Can anyone please help me?

    Last night I wiped the phone and did a complete restore.  Lo and behold the wifi was working again after the restore finished.  GREAT.  30 minutes later went to look at the phone and no wifi again, great!
    So if my wifi chip coincidentally fried itself during the update, I supposed it coincidentally unfried itself during the restore, only to fry itself again later.  Clever chips these.

  • Otf fonts not being recognised any more

    Hi
    I have the problem that all opentype fonts are not being recognised any more. I am not sure if it started with kde 4.2.2 or the latest freetype update. All I see is the icon for an openoffice template but no other options.
    Does anyone know how to repair this?
    David

    All otf-fonts are not recognised as fonts as if the mime-type is missing (which it isn't). I can use them and force kfontview or kfontinst to open them. MinionPro shouldn't have a license problem. And for example in systemsettings I can select installed otf fonts like Minion or Myriad. Before, everything was fine no matter which font. I can't confirm any general linux problem with fonts. 
    @Evanlec: Yes it is really annoying that openoffice can't use them. I think it can use ttf based otf fonts. Luckily I use Latex almost exclusively so that it doesn't matter so much. For designers I would recommend scribus and inkscape anyway.

  • Ipod not recognized by any MAC computer

    I have a 20gb IPOD 2nd generation which has worked fine until recent itunes and tiger software upgrade. Now Finder nor utilities (ipod updater) nor itunes will recognize the ipod when connected with firewire-- even in disc mode. Ipod is not recognized by any MAC computer (several tried in Apple store). I ran diagnostics and everything checks out on the ipod. Please help.

    When I got a different charger later that night, my Ipod was charging but a message popped up saying "USB device not recognized".

  • 5th gen Ipod not playing in any docking station

    I have a 6th generation ipod classic that works great in my pioneer receiver and in both cars. I bought a 5th gen ipod on ebay for my wife and it seems to work just fine.
    I restored it using itunes, then put synced songs to it. Everything works fine when it's connected to Windows but it won't play in any docking station. It gets a charge from the station, but won't play.
    Does the 5th gen ipod not work in docking stations or is it possible mine isn't functioning right. I contacted the manufacturer of the station in one of the cars and they said all ipods should work.

    I have the same problem with a Pioneer X-HM50-K hifi system. My 5th gen ipod (system 1.3 which up-to-date iTunes claims is up-to-date, tried resetting/restoring/all that), when plugged into the docking bay, pauses the music and shows a tick mark after a while with the text "ok to disconnect" beneath it. The tick mark becomes a Pioneer logo after a while but that does not change the fact that the ipod does not react, neither to the command buttons on the Pioneer system (or on the remote control) nor to the buttons on the iPod itself (those do 'click', but have no effect). It does get charged, but doesn't play, just as in the top posting.
    A friend's iPod nano works just fine on the Pioneer, and my iPod works fine for everything else (headphones, iTunes, other docking systems I tried at friends', ...). So there seems to be a specific incompatibility with Pioneer systems.
    How can this problem be investigated and solved ?
