IPod touch frozen and itunes cannot detect iPod?
It just began with me connecting my iPod to my mac and a window popping up saying "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly, and you must manuually eject the ipod before each disconnect".I didn't know how to update it again (because my itunes is the lastest version already). You can't even see the contents (music, apps, books) of my ipod on itunes. I forgot to eject it manually today and now my ipod is frozen on the homescreen where all the apps are. Its been frozen for like an hour. I've tried holding the off button but to no avail.Now... my frozen ipod doesn't even show up on itunes. I need help!! (its a pretty old ipod touch with no camera)
Did you try to reset by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, untilt he Apple logo comes back again? If this does not work, try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

I have an ipod touch 4g and itunes 10.5 but everytime i try updating my itouch to ios5 it comes up with error 3194
please help thank youWhat was the complete wording of the error message?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
i updated my ipod touch software and it made my ipod touch be restored
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.

Was following prompts to update my ipod to iOS6 and itunes says the ipod needs to be restored, but when I follow the prompts to restore it says it can't find the ipod? Any ideas?
Did you try removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP -
Is there any shop in texas ,austin where we can replace an old ipod touch 3G and get a new ipod touch 4G ??
pls help meeSorry but I am pretty sure there isn't a shop which offers such a service.
Apple stores offer a 14 day remorse period where you can return a purchase for a full refund without having to give a reason however this has probably expired - unless you bought from a different store with a similar system which you still happen to be within the time limit for.
Your best bet would be to sell your iPod 3G and put the money towards a new one. If you are having trouble selling it an Apple store will take it and give you 10% off a new iPod. -

If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

IPod touch frozen and cannot unlock
My son's iPod touch is frozen the screen will go on and just display "3MIHEHHR MOBN...." which seems like it's in a different language. He said he was fooling around in languages. When I plug it in via computer, i was hoping to set to default settings to unlock it. But it knows the ipod is password protected. Is there any other way of unlocking this device so I can get this working again for him?
Thanks,
RobinTry:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

Ipod touch 4 and iTunes are not Friends
I have a gen 4 iPod touch (64 gig), and for some reason, all of a sudden and without warning it will not back up or properly sync to iTunes. I can’t determine if the problem is the iPod or the computer.
I have a Gateway laptop running Windows 7 as the o/s. I have completed virus checks and malware checks with no issues.
When the iPod is not connected and I start iTunes it will not load the iStore (no error message), but everything will function. Once I connect my iPod it’s like everything goes into slow motion, and the sync times out. I am running iTunes 10.5.1. The iPod is on the previous version, but cannot update it because it times out.
I have tried to uninstall iTunes (and all apple software) and re-install it. I have even tried to install iTunes 10.3.1 and try to sync it, but I get a prompt that the library is of a newer version and is not compatible.
I have tried to reset the iPod to its original settings without any true success.
For some reason and this may sound crazy, but once I uninstalled iTunes it seemed to me that my whole computer increased in speed.
I would say that maybe the problem was a firewall issue, but I run AVG freeware (and the standard Windows security) and I do not see any sections with a list of software that has connection limitations.
Any thoughts?Ok, I have determined that it is iTunes and not the device, because I connected an iPad to iTunes with the same reaction. This in combination with the fact that iTunes will not bring up the iStore with or without a device attached.
I have turned off the AVG, and the O/S security to see if that might free the connection but it proved ineffectual.
I have tried uninstalling all Apple products again and reinstalling but this has not worked either.
Is there anything I have not tried? I would hate to have to format… -
Ipod Touch Frozen and Unresponsive, not recognized by Macbook
My Ipod Touch suddenly froze and stopped working. I have a black screen, tried the Ipod "reset" by holding both buttons for at least 10 sec. The apple symbol comes on, then the screen goes back to black. Tried this both connected and not connected to my MacBook. Ipod is not recognized when attached to USB by Itunes or MacBook. I downloaded the current version of iTunes with the same results. Please help.
I would try and put the touch into a recovery mode.
1. Start iTunes
2. Unplug the touch and try to turn it off (hold the sleep/wake button until you see the red slider and turn it off. This may not work so go to step 3)
3. Hold down the Home button and, while continuing to hold the button down, plug the touch USB cable back into your computer.
4. Continue to hold the button down until iTunes responds with "an iPod has been detected in Recovery mode". Follow the onscreen instructions and restore the device. -
