IPOD NOT GIVING AN ANSWER

Hello to everyone !
My friend has bought a 5G iPod since a weeks ago on-line. Some days ago, the iPod suddently stopped playing and it turned off automatically.
Now, when i'm trying to start it it doesn't gives any answer, even when i'm connecting it to the computer, and even if i'm "resetting" it (using central button + menu botton holding 'em for simultaneatly for 6 secs ~) it doesn't say anything...
What can i do? My friend is turning mad. I can't find a way to solve my problem...
...please... help !
Kindly regards,

What is the primary way that the ipod is charged? if it is through usb then I would suggest making sure that it is not only a usb2.0 port, but a high powered usb 2.0 port. If it is not, then it will not charge the ipod.
Also, take a look here:

  • I make enable 4G in settings but showing 3G in display ? .same location have 4G .I was called service provider they are not giving corrective answer .UAE etisalat

    Pls help

    Yes that is the map but the area that is 4G is North-West Salt Lake.  Some of downtown is 4G (I guess 4G and extended 4G is that extended is or can be sometimes 4G and sometimes 3G.)  I never doubted that Salt Lake had some 4G.  I was trying to tell you that the Verizon agent told me that Salt Lake city will not have 4G until the end of 2011.  she gave me the URL to an article that validates that.  the other map which another agent used is just red and white.  She said go by this map since it is more accurate as of now and the one with the various reds is toward the end of 2011.  whatever the story is, I have no idea but if you look at the map that you are questioning if I refreshed the map aft checking 4G you will see that most of downtown Salt Lake is not the burgundy red and south of downtown has no 4G at al, just 4G extended and 3G.  If you want to check the area where I live it is near 3900 South or on the section of the map you are showing in your post, it is South of 215 and 80 frwys.  this area on the map I used this morning is all 4G extended and 3G.  I have no idea why the only pure 4G is near the Great Salt Lake, but that area is out where the airport is (west of downtown Salt Lake).  Have you looked at the other map that is just red and white? I am not sure of the difference but the agent told me that map is the most current map if you want something that is current.
    I am confused.  But I am still confused as to why you were wondering if I was refreshing the map?  I was telling or describing in my post what the agents at Verizon had told me, not what I had seen on the multi colored map.
    thanks,

  • What's wrong in the code.....Not giving proper answer.

    Hi All,
    below is code for adding 2 simple no's using pl-sql but by setting serveroutput on size 50000,I'm unable to find answer to this ..
    declare
    no_1 number;
    no_2 number;
    result number;
    a number;
    b number;
    begin
    dbms_output.put_line ('Enter the First Number :'||&no_1);
    a:=no_1;
    dbms_output.put_line ('Enter the Second Number :'||&no_2);
    b:=no_2;
    result:=to_number(a+b);
    dbms_output.put_line ('Sum of given numbers is '||result);
    end;
    Thanks in advance.

    In the code you are trying to display the user supplied number, after taking the no_1 and no_2 it is displaying the number. After that there are no value in the
    variables no_1. So do like below.
    declare
    result number;
    a number;
    b number;
    begin
    dbms_output.put_line ('Enter the First Number :');
    a:=&no_1;
    dbms_output.put_line ('Enter the Second Number :');
    b:=&no_2;
    result:=a+b;
    dbms_output.put_line ('Sum of given numbers is '||result);
    end;
    Regards

    my ipad is not giving any sound from ipad but giving sound from headphone when plugged in, what may be the problem i dont know but facing much problems as phone is muted.I have checked all switches.The sound switch is also on.Red is not visible in rightside switch.
    Please solve the problem,how it is happened whats solution,i want remedia measures
    IPAD 3GS iOS 8.1.2 updated recently but sound muted please solve my problem

    What do you have Settings > General > Use Side Switch Set To ? If 'rotation lock' then you mute/unmute sounds via the Control Centre (swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen), not the switch on the side of the iPad.
    If that is not 'on' then try inserting and removing headphones and see if that gets sounds to work, and if not then try a soft reset (i.e. a reboot) and see if that makes any difference : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear

  • IPod not syncing on Windows or Mac

    My sister recently purchased a Macbook. I tried using her iPod to move her songs from her PC to the new Mac (as mentioned elsewhere) but it didn't work. I ended up just wiping the whole ipod and moving songs with a USB travel drive.
    When I synced up her ipod to the Macbook, I restored it to format it for Mac. The songs started to load and about 3/4 of the way through her library I received this error message.
    "Attempting to copy to the disk <ipod name> failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    I have tried using the "Disk cannot be read" troubleshooting page, but none of these suggestions help - it is a brand new Macbook - she literally bought it yesterday, and I have tried to use both a firewire and a USB cable that work fine with another ipod and computer. Disgruntled, I tried hooking up the ipod again, once again restoring it since data categorized as "other" was showing up on the iPod on the iTunes summary page. Once again, a few songs in we got another error message.
    "The iPod <name> cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    I have restored the iPod on the Macbook three times now. Each time, it goes through restore, and then when it is syncing with the music library it gives the error message as above, iTunes freezes and I have to either forcequit or manually remove the ipod.
    Giving up, I figured I'd just load the songs onto the iPod from the PC. So I reformated/restored for Windows and synced up the iPod. The first error message I got was:
    "The drive is not ready for use; its door may be open. Please check drive F: and make sure that a disk is inserted and that the drive door is closed."
    I unplugged the ipod and there was only one song on it. I plugged it back in and it started to sync only to give me this error message a few minutes in.
    "Attempting to copy to the disk <name of ipod> failed. An unkown error occurred (-53)."
    Now iTunes on the PC is frozen and I'm really confused and don't know what to do. She has an older iPod (3rd generation, dock connector) that has given her some problems over the years but nothing like this. Unfortunately, she's traveling tomorrow and really wants her iPod and music with her. At this point, neither the Mac nor the PC will load the music onto the iPod. What do we do? Also, she has Applecare for her new Mac, but it looks like the issue is with the iPod, not the computer - if I call them will they help me fix it? Should I bother trying to bring the iPod and the Mac into the local store?

    Now it gets even weirder.
    I tried plugging the iPod into a third computer (PC) which belongs to someone else. The computer restores, syncs and loads all of his songs onto her iPod perfectly fine.
    The only thing that makes sense is that there's somethng about one or more of her songs that's causing this problem. Is there anyway for me to find out which songs are doing this?

  • IPod Not being recognized with all the software updates

    I've been without my iPod for a few weeks now and I desperately want it back. I dropped it a while back, and have come online to look up stuff to restore it, but none of that is working for me. I reset it by pressing "menu" and "Play" at the same time, then put it into disk mode by pressing the "ff" and "rwd" buttons together, but even in disk mode my computer is not recognizing it at all. The iPod screen says that it is in disk mode, and says it's okay to disconnect, but its not giving me the option to restore when I connect it to my computer and open the iPod updater.
    It also gives me the file folder w/ an exclamation point whenever i don't put it into disk mode. And the few times that my computer does pick up something the iPod updater flashes a message that says "Can't Mount iPod" and then the updater manually closes itself. Anyone know what to do?
    Thanks
    20GB with Dock Connector   Windows XP  

    For "Cant mount iPod" - please try the following first
    Click on Start=>Control Panel=>Admin Tools=>Computer Management=>Disk Management
    -- Right-Click on the iPod and select “change drive letter”
    -- Choose something further along in the alphabet that is unused (Usually, “M”, “N”, “O” or something similar)
    -- Safely eject the iPod
    -- Reboot the PC
    If still cant solve it then
    The Sad iPods icon, clicking sound or folder with an exclamation mark are the toughest problems to deal with, and must do a Restore in order to fix it. However, when your iPod is showing this icon, it is probably too late for your computer to recognize the iPod.
    1. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    2. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Still can't see your iPod?
    Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or in the Desktop/Finder when you connect it to your PC/Mac. The most likely causes are listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
    3. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    4. Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    5. Try another known-good FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    6. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    7. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. We've found that in many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    There are also some cases being reported that some unrecognized iPod being able to be erased with Linux, then reconnect the iPod with the original computer and do a Restore there.
    8. Try to do an Erase (Disk Utility) on a Mac computer or a format with a PC (Disk Management tool) but ensure you choose the right Drive (your iPod not your Hard Disk of your computer). You may need to plug and unplug your iPod with the computer for several attempts, and switching around Format and Restore, and hope out of sudden, it will get recognized.
    9. Diagnostic mode solution – which I copied from a thread of a post from thinktwice
    “Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
    - I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
    - I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
    - I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
    My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
    Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
    10. Let me ask you a question, if an iPod with no iPod software with it. When your connect it with a computer, what would happen?
    Yeah, the computer will treat it as a fresh external hard disk, which will get force mounted, the computer will ask you to format the iPod. It does not really matter the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted iPod software on the iPod, after that the computer will recognize it.
    Once it has been completed, eject your iPod, open the iPod updater and interestingly, you will able to do the Restore this time.
    Base on the above, that's why I suggest Windows users who experience trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac machine or vice versa. PC computer will not recognize a Mac formatted iPod, but it will get mounted in an attempt to format your iPod.
    11. Put your iPod in disk mode and plug with a computer, and have a boot of your computer using the Mac OS or XP startup disks, hope that your iPod will be seen on Mac's Disk utility and allow you to do a Erase there. Or, under the XP, you will be able to find your iPod there for you to do a Restore.
    But, if none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired. You can arrange for service at the iPod Service Website.
    I have just read an interesting solution about the Sad iPod, it does make sense but the warranty will be waived once you open the iPod, I would not do it myself as I am not good on doing this

  • Possible solution to iPod not recognized in Windows

    I myself have a Mac, but for that last week, since Xmas, have been trying to help a friend get her kids' iPods (Xmas gifts) to work with her Windows machine. She has a Dell with Windows XP. Her whole system is 2-3 months old.
    We experienced the same problem as many. iPods not recognized by her system. We tried everything, the 5R's, prayers,tears, voodoo, human sacrifice (Bob from GeekSquad), everything.
    Long story short, she discovered that if she disconnects her printer (a Lexmark all-in-one) from it's USB port, and then connects the iPods, the iPods are recognized and funcion normally with the system. She restarts her computer between disconnecting the printer and connecting the iPods. Not sure if that step is necesary at this point. Must be some sort of hardware/software conflict.
    Just wanted to let everyone know in case this worked for them.
    Mac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I don't usually reply in discussion sites, but after about 20 hours...doing the R's over and over, Applecare not being able to help, and one step away from giving up...I just had to say thank you! I tried everything...except removing my printer and scanner to see if they were conflicting...after I read your note, I tried, and it finally worked. Thank you so much...I really appreciate the suggestion...and my headache has seemed to go away!!! Hope that you have helped other people's stress as well! Happy New Year!

  • Similar problem... have not found an answer.

    My ipod is doing something similar to many posts. It has stopped syncing with itunes. I added new songs into my itunes and when I plugged in the ipod it acted like it was updating. It even said "update complete". But, when I went to play my new songs, they were not in my ipod. So, I updated my ipod software, updated my itunes, restarted my computer, and reset my ipod. I plugged it up again - and it did the same thing. It acts like it is updating, but the songs do not transfer.
    It was not giving me an error message, so I went to apple support - I found an article telling me to update my error messages. So I did that. Then it told me "hard drive can not be read from or written to".
    I also checked and it is not on a network drive. It is on drive "k".
    What should I do now?

    hiya!
    here is a good place to start with that error message:
    "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod

    Are you saying that the "Music" app is not present on your iPod Touch? Perhaps there is an issue with the restrictions on the iPod? If you're absolutely sure that the Music app is not present I would consider creating a backup of your iPod after syncing it with iTunes. I would then consider restoring it if this is the case.
