    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 iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    whats the format on the external HD?
    verify same on another Mac, its likely a dead SATA card inside the external enclosure.
    One assumes you arent referring to a 2012 Air with a Toshiba SSD, since the Air contains no hard drives, only a SSD.
    2013 Air use Sandisk or Samsung SSD.

    Try restoring the iPod to rule out a software problem. First restore from backup and then to factory defaults/new iPod.
    Then an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipods power button not responding when pushed

    my ipods power button and volume buttons are not responding when pushed

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - Restore the iPOd from backup via iTunes
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I want to turn my macbook air off. the shut down button already appeared but the mouse/cursor just hang and won't work. even after pressing the enter button to shut my mac off won't work. what will i do?

    i want to turn my macbook air off. the shut down button already appeared but the mouse/cursor just hang and won't work. even after pressing the enter button to shut my mac off won't work. what will i do?

    This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
    My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
    The mouse moves, but does not work.
    The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
    I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
    Firefox 18.4%
    Activity Monitor 0.9%
    Firefox Plugin 0.2%
    This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6.

  • Hardboot Iphone without use of Power Button - need solution

    My power button is not working.. i have read a lot of the posts about it. I know i have to bring it in to get fixed.  In the meantime.. I need to hardboot my phone.  Can i do this without the powerbutton? is there a hot key?  thank you.

    Warranty and support are only valid in the country of origin.
    As for your insurance, Apple does not sale insurance.  Take that up with whomever the insurance was purchased from.
    If by insurance you mean AppleCare+ (it is not insurance), that is only valid in the country of origin.

  • TS1587 My friend has a G4 that will NOT turn on at all.  The monitor power button will light up, but monitor won't turn on; the the computer power button lights up when pressed but won't stay on and nothing else happens.  He said it USED to at least turn

    Anyway, not sure if my question was sent, so here it goes:  My friend's G4 won't power on....the power button lights up briefly when pressed, but nothing happens....and, cannot even get the montior to power on...does the same thing.   He said it used to at least turn on, but now it's doing this.   Help!!??  What should we do??

    If you are able to use a multi-meter, you can test to see if the power supply is culprit. Use the Power Mac G4: Power Supply Voltage Test  (Sawtooth G4) document to aide you in the proceedure.
    If not the Sawtooth, Power Mac G4 (Gigabit Ethernet): Power Supply Voltage Test.
    If a Quicksilver, use the pinout of the QS PSU connector here:
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/tips/MDDps_mods/MDD_PSMods.html#update
    and a testing description here:
    http://www.jcsenterprises.com/Japamacs_Page/Blog/D275729F-09DA-4FBB-96B3-BEEEB2C 04619.html
    The test description is for a MDD, but the basics are the same.
    If a MDD,follow my instructions in the linked articl above.
    One should also try a PMU reset:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1939
    One should also  replace the 1/2 AA PRAM battery.
    Also, check that the 20, 22, 24 pin connector is properly fitted to the motherboard, and that the wires are properly inserted in the connector. There is also a 10 wire ribbon, which goes from the motherboard to the power button board. Make sure that the ribbon is firmly connected at both ends, and that there is no apparent damage to the ribbon.
    If the power supply tests good in a MDD, the power switch board could be suspect.

  • Ipod power button won't work

    As of late, my power button is acting weird.  Either when you press the power button it won't turn on.. or it will.. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't..
    To get it to turn off if the power button won't work, I'll just drain the battery.  Anybody know anything to help?

    That's a hardware problem.  Apple doesn't repair it.  If there is no sign of abuse (don't try to fix it yourself), they replace it with a refurbished unit.  The fixed-price for non-warranty replacements can be found here.

  • Buttons need to be pressed twice.

    Hi people. Im authoring a dvd with lots of layered menus. I had first made the menus so that every button had its own layer when it was being navigated. But there came a problem when navigating the dvd with the mouse, the overlays (layers) would not work, but using the remote would. So I changed from layers to a single pict overlay file, and also some layers, so that for instance when one is resting upon a button, it will be highlit but there would also be a picture displayed next to it (a separate layer). Am I being clear? (this is difficult for my english).
    So the problem now, is that overlays work, but a button has to be pressed twice in order for it to be activated.
    This is in dvd sp 4.
    If anybody has had this experience or know what Im doing wrong, I would love to read it.
    Thanks in advance.

    There are two types of still menus you can use in DVDSP, and both are "supported" by the dvd spec. The first type is a simple highlight overlay (and really is the preferred way of creating a menu). The advantages are that the menu responds quickly and generally in a way that the typical user would expect them to (mouse over results in highlighting, and one click navigates to the object).
    The second type, and the type you are using, are layered menus. Basically what DVDSP is doing is making an identical menu (with the exception of the changed content, like your button) for each state. One needs to click on it once to select it (and tell the dvd player to go to the menu with the change in the button appearance/associated image/etc) and click a second time to navigate to the object. You can have 'highlights' just like you would with the menus I described above, but in this instance the highlight appears but it still requires you to click twice. These kinds of menus are often confusing for the viewer, because they don't behave like what most are familiar with. They also can be quite sluggish in performance, and can behave very slowly on some set top players. For the most part (although the graphics can definitely look much better), I think they are best avoided.
