IPod service repair...

I sent my U2 iPod last week for a battery checkup; I had trouble with it, anyway, I called Apple regarding the status of this and they confirmed me that they sent me a "new one"... Will I get the same iPod with another battery, a refurbished iPod or what?
Also, the tracking number they gave me state this as description: SVC,W/U,IPOD,20GB,BLK,U2,
Is that a black or color screen display; mine was a non-color display but I was wondering if they could have sent me one in color :P. Thank you!
I should have it by monday so let me know before haha...

I finally receive my iPod today! A brand new one; still "non-color" display but at least it works fine now... For now...
Only thing that /$%? me off; I might pay customs taxes even thaugh it is my iPod... A parcel value of 66$ was on the package so Canada's custom might charge me like 10$...

  • Itunes + quicktime error message - service 'ipod service' (ipod service) fa

    Help! Got new iPod Nano for Christmas and I STILL cannot get it to show up in iTunes - it has showed up in my device manager - with an over the icon - "The drivers for this device are not installed (code 28) To reinstall the drivers for this device, click Reinstall Drivers. - Then another error - Wizard cannot find the software to instal -(my iPod did not come with a disk!!!) I have done the "R's" several times! Downloaded and installed and uninstalled several x's from iTunes. Changed USB locations - I have three to choose from. Now - I am 'repairing' the latest installation from iTunes and I get this "itunes + quicktime error message - service 'ipod service' (ipod service) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services". Any ideas??? I'm not a computer genious....but I'm not a complete newbie, either! I am so FRUSTRATED!!!! This should be that difficult - I added additional RAM and it was a breeze and successful! This is just ridiculous! Any one have any other ideas???? I have read so much - even emptied the battery and recharged!!! HELP! Please! I just wanna hear some music!!! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

    Thanks - I got it to install by going into 'run' to get to permissions, etc. So that seems OK - but my computer is still not acknowledging iPod software and for some reason iTunes is now showing 'the URL could not be opened' when I go into Help for iPod. It's still not showing up in Itunes, either

  • Ipod service module

    How can I repair the ipod service module?? Everytime I connect the ipod a message pops up stating that the ipod service module has encoutered a problem and needs to close. What can I do about this problem??? HELP???

    Hey kathyds1,
    OK, time to reinstall. But, to do so, follow this article to completely remove iTunes and Quicktime before installing again.

  • ITunes 10.1 Upgrade on Windows 7, iPod Service issue

    I am upgrading from iTunes 10.0.0.68 (64 bit version) to iTunes 10.1 (64 bit version) on my Windows 7. After some time the popup error message reads,
    Service 'iPod Service' (Pod Service) could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services
    I aborted the installation. Roll back action took place and I am continuing with iTunes
    Now when I run iTunes, the message says,
    The software required for communicating with iPods and mobile phones was not installed correctly. Do you want iTunes to try to repair this for you?
    I clicked on Yes. Then iTunes application opened with the message "Could not delete service" (the title of the window is 'iPod Service')
    How do I fix this problem? I want to upgrade to iTunes 10.1 as I want to upgrade my iPad to iOS 4.2

    Now, based on your latest response I did the right-click, install as Administrator. The result unfortunately is the same.
    Okay ... let's try a modified version of the instructions from the following document. (The modification is because they aren't precisely accurate for 64-bit systems ... the program files that could potentially be left on your system by the unmodified instructions wouldn't normally be relevant to an iPod Service issue, but you're getting a relatively rare variation on iPod Service trouble. So, just in case ...)
    If you get any error messages during any of the uninstalls, deletions or reinstalls, note down what they say and post back with the precise text, please.
    Here's the document:
    [Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923]
    ... here's the modification:
    When you get to *step 9* of the *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled* section, proceed instead with the following instructions:
    (9) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    Note: If you have a 64-bit version of the Windows OS, continue with step #10. Otherwise, skip to step #17.
    (10) Open the Program Files (x86) folder.
    (11) Right-click the iTunes folder (if it still exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion.
    (12) Right-click the iPod folder, choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (13) Right-click the QuickTime folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (14) Right-click the Bonjour folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (15) Open the Common Files folder.
    (16) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (17) Open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer or whichever hard disk your operating system is installed on.
    (18) Open the Windows folder.
    (19) For 32-bit versions of Windows: Open the System32 folder.
    For 64-bit versions of Windows: Open the Syswow64 folder.
    (20) Right-click the QuickTime file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (21) Right-click the QuickTimeVR file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    (22) Right-click the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
    Now restart the PC and try another iTunes reinstall.
    Any better luck with that attempt?

  • Itunes pulls up error stating that ipod service could not be stoped

    I got an ipod for christmas and i cant use it because when I go to download the ItunesSetup it says that i have to verify that I have sufficient privileges to stop system services and I dont know how to fix it

    FYI - I'm having the same problem. At first, I loaded iTunes successfully, but got a generic pop-up windows error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    I tried the "repair" option from the website and thats were I got the ipod services message.
    I noticed my Windows XP was service pack 1 so I loaded Service Pack 2... then I reloaded iTunes and still get the same generic error message.
    There has got to be an easy answer, lets hope someone can find it for us.

  • IPod Service module crashing (32-bit)

    Hi, I have a problem. I installed last.fm into my computer, and since then I keep getting this every time I load itunes, or start the iPod Service in my services menu.
    http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/3826/appleg.png
    I've uninstalled Last.fm with Revo Uninstaller, so everything remotely related to last.fm is completely wiped from my computer. I've tried repairing itunes, deleting my temporary files, launching the service in safe mode (it won't let me), nothing works, and I still can't get itunes to recognize my iPod. (anymore)
    My computer itself sees my iPod, the service just won't run without crashing.
    What other actions could I take to remedy this? I can't even figure out if something is blocking it, or the service itself is borked.
    Currently running Vista, using iTunes 9.2.1.5

    I found my answer here:
    http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2565060&start=0&tstart=0
    I used the workaround for people who don't own the older generation ipods:
    WORKAROUND FOUND:
    I had a problem with Win XP using my laptop. iTunes 9 was working perfectly fine and the upgrade to 10 fails at the end of the install. I deleted/installed iTunes 4 times and still had the same problem.
    Exact error msg:
    The instruction at "0x7c91b21a" referenced memory at "0x676e6984". the memory could not be "written".
    If you click "ignore" it finishes installing. However you get this error several time when you launch itunes.
    Workaround:
    I went in to C:\Program Files\iPod\bin to rename the iPodservice.exe to iPodService.exe.noload, then created a "notepad text document" that I renamed to iPodService.exe to avoid Apple to try to install the service again (if it installs iPodService.exe you get the error again). iTunes now loads without errors and loads faster than iTunes 9. iTunes seems to recognize my iPhone when I plug it in... I don't know what that service is really for.
    It work flawlessly. I would appreciate on the other hand if Apple would step up their pc software development department and not let major bugs like this get through. I've heard that a person that did a fresh install of Windows XP, wasn't having any problems. There are numerous conflicts that you can run in to though depending on what is or isn't installed on your PC and what Windows services are running.
    Of course lets highlight what seems to be the main problem, which is the ipodservice.exe file.

  • Apple TV Service/Repair

    Hi everyone,
    Well my Apple TV has a problem: it worked fine up till about 2 months ago and now it displays no picture, iTunes doesn't recognise it and all I get is a flashing amber light. Does anyone know if this is a specific problem - I've tried flicking through video outputs and tried HDMI and component connections but nothing. Anyway I'm trying to get it repaired and here's the kind of embarrassing thing - I can't work out how to do it through the Apple site!
    I got my iPod repaired fine but if I go to Service/Repair hardware there is no 'Apple TV' button and if I 'Check my warranty' there doesn't seem to be any way of getting it serviced. I must be being dumb here as I know it's protected by a one year warranty.
    Anyone see where I'm being stupid?
    Thanks, Tom

    About 2 months ago my first ATV died with the flashing amber light. (Hard drive failure.) I took mine to the nearest Apple store where it was replaced on the spot. New one works fine.
    If you are not near an Apple store, why not just call Apple customer service.

  • HT1483 My ipod needed repairing, so I backed up the data into restore file. My ipod was swapped for a totally new ipod and now I am having difficulty reloading the restored data that I saved. I keep getting the corrupt or not compatible MSG??? Any Ideas

    My IPOD needed repairing, so I backed up my personal data into a restore file. In the end my ipod was exchanged for a brand new one and now I am having difficulty with restoring all of my data that I saved.
    While trying to restore through iTunes I keep gettingthe corrupt or not compatible error message. Does anyone have any ideas or experience with this issue?
    Much Appreciated for any help!

    You can not restorea a backup made with a newer version of iOS to a phone with an older version of iOS.
    1400 photos stored on the phone? Do you not EVER extract them? The camera roll is intended to be temporary storage. Like the SD card in a digital camera. You should be extracting them to your computer on a regular basis.
    Contacts should be synced to a compatible contact manager or cloud service. If you were not doing any of these things, guard your backups with your life and make sure your computer is being backed up on a regular basis, because you won't be able to get them back until you get a new phone with at least the same version of iOS that your 4 had.
    There are 3rd party applications that say they can extract this information from a backup file, but I don't have personal experience with them.

  • IPod touch battery and new ipod touch repairing decision

    Hi,
    I have an iPod touch 4th generation(8gb)that I have had for about 2 years. A few months ago I noticed something wrong with it. Whenever I kept the battery fully charged it decided to shut off by it's self even when it acted fully charged. Now I'm trying to decided if I can actually get a professional to repair the battery for it or if it's best to get a new iPod touch. Otherwise I don't know what else I can do. My warranty expired so I'm thinking getting a new battery will not be free either way. I don't think there's water damage unless if there is I don't know where to look on the iPod. Need help to figure out what I should do about the battery because the buttons and screen is fine I think it's just the battery that is the problem. Although I did hear about the next ios7 or something, but I wouldn't think that would have anything to do with this. I've asked a worker in an iPhone repair shop place about this problem and they agreed it has to do with the battery. No matter how many times I have kept it charged fully or started charging it won't stay on unless it stays charging.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. If onoly a battery than battery replacement is an option. Apple might tell yo what is wrong so you can them make an informed decision.
      Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the other 4Gs. If only the battery  is bad then the exchange price is $79. They do not fix yours.

    I accidentally dropped my ipod touch on the sidewalk and it cracked the glass, bent the frame, and shattered the corner. How do I get it repaired and how much will it cost?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
