Ipod touch 4g backup taking over 48 hours, does this happen?

I've been trying to update to ios5 but the backup for the update has taken over 48 hours. Can this happen, i just think it's because i haven't backed up in like months.

Far away not even close to being half way full. I have tried everything to fix my last one and ended up replacing it and the replacement is even worse. I feel like if it was the IOS it would be more consistent and be the same. Perhaps I somehow got two bad ones in a row and should try again? My first one hadno problem with the keyboard or Safari but this one does immensely.

    Please help me, i dont exactly have the greatest computer because i loaded it up with stuff... but with my shuffle i didt have any problems... i just recently got the U2 Edition, and i as just wondering is it supposed to take over 24 hours for my pc to reformat and reboot the ipod??? Thats what its doing, so if any one can answer me, i have a feeling it has to do with my pc, but if theres anything i can do to make this thing go faster!!!PLEASEEEE ANSWER!!!!

    All i did was uninstall my ipod shuffle itunes *it said i had to* and i reinstalled the software that came with the U2 version, and it said that my ipod had to be formatted, so i thought it would take a couple of hours, but its definatly taking days. Is tehre anything I can do!??As for the ipod updater that i could install, it was saying that that it couldn't do it with the shuffles i tunes, so i delted everything ih ad for the shuffle ( i sold it anyways) so i figured starting from scratch would work!?

  • Why is my ipad backup taking over an hour to update to ios 5?

    I have tried for several days now to update my ipad to the ios 5 software.  Each time I plug in to start the process the "Backing up iPad" stops at about 2% of the install.  It's been at that point for 3 hours now with no movement. 

    Try this - Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update.

  • My ipod will not let me use all but like 3 apps fully without closing me out of the app. I have a 2nd generation ipod touch that has IOS 4. Why is this happening and should I take it to an apple store??

    My ipod will not let me use all but like 3 apps fully without closing me out of the app and i can only use safari or the app store for about 10 seconds without it shutting down the app. This has been happening for about 6 months after the upgrade to ios 4. Please help, should i take my ipod to an apple store?? It is a ipod 2nd generation itouch with ios 4.

    We won't know until you try the procedure.   The reset will not affect the content of the iPod.

  • Hyper-V Cluster Hosts BMR Backups take over 12 hours

    Hello, 
    We are using 2012 R2 DC to create a Hyper-V  2 node cluster.  The backup is DPM 2012 R2 running on 2012 R2 DC.  The DPM system was upgraded to 2012 R2 from DPM 2010 about a year ago and has worked for the most part.
    Two problems we are having.  I am using the VSS writer from the SAN manufacture.  On our old cluster I used the Microsoft VSS writer and had no problems unless I loaded the C: up with too many files on the cluster node.  I saw another post
    that says to disable the HW VSS writer but that was unsuccessful the last time I tried it.  I am going to try it again though.
    1.  I currently get a random VM that hangs during the backup.  The VM still runs but I cannot migrate it and backups fail from that point on.  In Hyper-V backup the Status field shows "Backing up...".  I am waiting for this
    to happen on a non critical VM but alas that is not happening. <sigh>  To correct the problem I have to pull power from the cluster node the system was on and then about 90% of the time I have to replace to different .sys files in c:\windows\system23\drivers
    and then run the startup repair utility from the windows install disk.
    2.  I did not notice this until this week but my BMR backups of the Hyper-V hosts are taking over 12 hours to complete.  The BMR on a different stand alone server is taking less than 10 min.  What is causing this and if these are taking this
    long is it interfering with the backup of the VMs on the cluster and causing the problem in paragraph 1 above?  I have tried to stagger my backups so they don't interfere with each other but if this one is taking 12-14 hours that will never happen.

    Hi,
    Are you on DPM 2012 R2 UR3 ?    If so - there is no need to a vss hardware provider, you can safely un-install it and DPM backups will continue to work fine.
    Problem-1)  I currently get a random VM that hangs during the backup.  The VM still runs but I cannot migrate it and backups fail from that point on.  In Hyper-V backup the Status field shows "Backing up...". 
    Response-1) Is there still an active backup job for that VM on the DPM server - and does it show that it's still transferring changes ?   If not, then wait for other VM backups to complete on that host, then manually stop the DPMRA service - that
    will reset the "backup in progress" flag and allow the VM to be managed.  We have an open bug that we're working on to fix that issue. 
    Problem-2) My BMR backups of the Hyper-V hosts are taking over 12 hours to complete. 
    Response-2)  DPM is not responsible for the amount of time a BMR backup takes to complete.  To troubleshoot this outside of DPM perform the following.
    First make sure no active BMR job is running by looking at running jobs on the DPM server.
    Second - using task manager make sure there are no WBENGINE.EXE process running on the DC you want to test - if so - kill it with task manager.
     To test BMR backup outside of DPM, try this command:
    1) Set up a network share on a remote machine
    \\server\bmrshare
    2) From an administrative command prompt on the PS, type:
                  wbadmin.exe start backup -allcritical -backuptarget:\\server\bmrshare
    This should show you the list of volumes included in the BMR backup and ask "Do you want to start the backup operation?. - Type Y to continue..
    See how long it takes to complete or see if it hangs - kill it if you need to after X hours - but look on the share and see how much it copied before killing it.
    You can try disabling chimney on both DPM and DC to see if that helps.
        c:\>Netsh int tcp set global chimney=disabled

    Without knowing what happens when you try to restore the iPod
    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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • Frozen iPod Touch with spinning wheel over the apple...

    Hi!
    My iPod Touch is first generation, 8GB.  It's been freezing up over the last couple of days.  I took it to the genius bar yesterday, where it was restored to factory settings and everything seemed fine.  Today, it's freezing up again.  I've turned it off completely, and on again.  The red slider bar does not appear.  It's hooked up to the computer now, with the white apple logo showing, and a spinning white wheel over the apple.
    Any thoughts on how to restart it?
    Thanks!!

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring the iPod. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    However snce it happened after restring to factory defaults, you may have a hardware problem.
    If you restored from backup last time, I would not do that again since you may have some corruption that is causing the problem.

  • Why is installing 3 applications from a creative cloud packager taking over an hour?

    Dear Adobe community,
    I am trying to install 3 Creative Cloud applications, (Illustrator, photoshop, and indesign) on a Windows 7 Hpz420 workstation from a USB hard drive and it is taking over an hour to complete.  i created a package of the 3 applications using the CC packager and move the package over to a USB drive.  Then I start the installer exe it runs and completes, but the installation takes over an hour and 1/2.  My installation of Creative Suite 5.5 from a similar USB hard drive was much quicker, about 1/2 hour.
    I don't want to use a remote installer like AAMEE. Is there a different way to create a package that is more efficient? I also don't want to redown the applications everytime I need to install them on a machine and utilize my network bandwidth.
    Is this normal ?  I have rebuilt the package with the same results and have installed CC on two different machines with the same results.  I did not see anything in the forums about the installation being so slow so I am concern that I have missed something or that my results are not normal.
    Your help is appreciated.

    My "Gaming" computer (Toshiba Qosmio X-70A, w/ 32GB RAM, i7 Intel processors @2.7 Ghz, w/ 250GB SSD, 750GB high-speed 7,200 RPM primary & 1TB SSD/HD hybrid drive) was purchase specifically, by me, to learn & use the Adobe "Cloud" Apps with.  This computer is a beast. <And - yet> it takes me days, literally <DAYs> to download all the apps I am using/studying.
    I (last week) recently had my 1st "total meltdown" w/ Win 8.1-Pro (what a total P.O.S. "OS" this is!) & have faced the daunting task of re-installing ALL of the Adobe SW available over the "Creative Cloud". This will take days (w/ a direct DSL link to a Cat-6 cable; not on Wi-Fi) to "re-install" all the "Creative Cloud" software I was learning/working with. Insane. I have never seen anything like this!
    So, "DLi" - I agree! Adobe's SW (& HW) Engineers don't give a stuff about your time nor mine.
    The only things that are of importance to them are (#1 - "Keeping their jobs") ... metering out their "Creative Cloud" in a manner which allows them to investigate EVERY byte on your computer/server/device BEFORE allowing you to use it . . . (hmmm....I do wonder how many dollars per month that information is worth to the NSA / per seat)?) ... and making it "a nightmare" for the user.
    What an insult!
    What an horrific slap in the face to each & every one of Adobe's "Creative Cloud" paying customers! (Uhhhm, that'd be you and that'd be me, too).
