Ipod v3 update bombed out

Just paid for sw v3 update for my ipod touch 2gen.
The sw update downloaded and started preparing ipod for install.
I then got a very brief error message that said it could not continue. I could not record the error code because the window closed after a few seconds but I did manage to copy the message that it sent to apple:

How do I get a refund for this update?
ps the only software that ever gives thi swindows user problems is itunes!

My ipod seems to be been bricked by this v3 update. The screen just showed a plug into itunes image. I checked in the docs and it told me to restore.
I have now tried a restore and the rstore failed with the following error:

  • Ipod Software Updates Time Out

    I have the 7.2 iTunes software and the 1.1.1 ipod version software. There is 1.1.3 to be updated and I have tried in vain to update but EVERY time I do the download times out and i'm unable to get it. I have dial up but I can download songs most of the time so what could be wrong?? I called Radio Shack service since I bought it there and their technical support group could only come up with resetting the ipod (which i've done) Anyone have any ideas?

    I had no problem. Is Settings>General>Time&Date sent to autommatic?
    How far off were the date and time?

  • IPod only updating 36 out of 197 purchased items...

    I only have one iTunes account authorized to my computer and iPod. Mine. I have purchased 197 songs over the lifetime of said account, and my iPod will only sync 36 of them. I haven't been able to determine any pattern. I've tried all the obvious (song length, purchase date, play count, last played, genre, etc.)
    I called iTunes customer support and they had no idea. They told me to call iPod support (which would cost me a bunch of money, as I'm not under warranty).
    I've tried reauthorizing, restoring my iPod (can't, get an error: 1418), I've deleted my SC folder innumerable times, reinstalled iTunes, making sure the sync settings were applied properly (Sync All Music And Playlists), made sure I have plenty of space left on my iPod, etc.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for any input!

    Well, first of all, they are all checked; secondly, I don't have the box saying "sync only checked songs and videos" checked, so either way, that's not the problem.
    Thanks, though.

    Yes, assuming they're compatible with that iPod model. iOS 4 can't be used on the original iPod touch.
    iPod is out of warranty.
    This only affects how long Apple will freely provide technical support, repairs to, or replacement of the device.

  • IPod update timing out?!

    For the last week since the iOS 4.2 update came out, I've tried downloading it with no success; the file does not process or verify, the network connection times out (Error code is -3259) when the file is totally completed, according to iTunes (missing a tenth of a megabyte, but there's no more time remaining indicator). Pausing and resuming causes the file to restart, and that's 600 more megabytes to my bandwidth quota for the month, for nothing.
    I really don't mean to sound... well, snarky, but this is getting pretty frustrating to me. I know many of the features carried by the 4.2 update won't apply to me, as I'm on a Windows machine, but iTunes DOES remind me there's an update available every time I plug the iPod in, so I try again, almost every time. I must have wasted about 2-3 gigabytes already.
    Well,

    Turn off your Anti-Virus, Spy Ware, Ad Ware, whatever... Turn it all off...
    If you have a Firewall turned on, turn it off...
    Then update your iPod Touch

  • Aperture update 3.3 bombing out

    I have just updated my library to 3.3, but it bombs out every time I open it. I have done all the usual things to try and fix it by rebuilding the database etc., I deleted the plist files, and I have even reinstalled the update, but nothing helps. Please can someone give me some advice? The program bombs out within seconds from opening it up.

    @iBuzz, lBaraza,
    if the crash seems to be system specific, then you need to start your own thread, because we have will have to interview you for details of your system. This is very confusing, if we have to keep track of three different setup´s and sort them mentally in one thread - it will be easy to make mistakes this way
    @ Heinrich van den Berg
    Any news? Does Aperture start with the Shift key held down?  If not, please post a crash log.
    Just in case the crash log mentions the "PluginManager.framework" the safest way would be to reinstall the operating system; this framework usually causes this kind of trouble after an installation of Final Cut.

    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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I was updating ipod touch to new iOS5 and it told me that all data would be lost with update and to put it oon computer, but update not there.  How do i update with out this happening?

    I am looking for some help with updating to iOS5, i downloaded to computer to avoid losing data on ipod touch but update was not there.  I've done three times and same result.  If I have all music on usb drive will I be able to reupload it after update, or is there another way to do it by transferring my music from ipod touch to computer and the re-installing in itunes.  Alot of the music I have is copied off of discs and not from itune purchases.  Any help will be greatly appreciated and my computer skills are satisfactory but I am by no means a computer guru. Thanks

    As all of the msuic came from your computer in the first place it should still be there.  Is it not?
    EVERYTHING on your ipod should also be on your computer and should be included in your regular backup copy of your computer.
    Make sure that everything is on your computer.  You can transfer itunes purchases from the ipod.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    When everything is on your computer, then it can be synced back to the ipod after updating.

  • Error message iPod cannot update b/c all of the playlists no longer exist

    Hello. I have been getting this error message. "Songs on the iPod "MAR(the name of my iPod)" cannot update because all of the playlists selecting for updating no longer exist." And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist. I have a feeling ths might have to do with the fact that on vacation the person I was visiting gave me a gift of putting all of his music that would fit into the external hard drive part of my iPod, and for the past week or so I have been putting that music onto my 40 GB portable hard drive at home. I suspect I took a vital folder out of my iPod by accident. Right now I have the folder iPod_control if I open my iPod up in My Computer. Am I missing something? Right now my iPod is empty because iTunes made a composite playlist last week and I deleted it thinking I could get my real playlists back. Can you help me, or reccomend a site/someone who can? Thank you.

    hiya!
    And my playlists are still on the left side in my iTunes. They do exist.
    let's just doublecheck this. folks get this message if they have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in their itunes "ipod" preferences tab. so bring up that tab ("edit > preferences", click "ipod" while the ipod is showing up in the source list), and do a playlist by playlist crosscheck of the playlists selected in that tab, and the playlists showing up in the itunes sourcelist.
    is there any playlist selected in the preferences tab that isn't showing up in the sourcelist?
    love, b

Then it says connecting ipod software update server and a screen pops up with ipod software update on the top and iOS 5.1.

    This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
    Update to the latest version of iTunes. Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) users may need to download iTunes 10.6.3.
    Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
    Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
    Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
    Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

  • Plug in an iPod to update... I would, if I could!

    It cannot be coincidence that at the point I was installing updater 2006-03-23 my iPod became unrecognisable by my PC. I first got the “I can’t mount iPod” and now get “Plug in an iPod to update”!
    It was working fine and now it’s not. There seems to be a lot of it about. I have tried everything and nothing works. Does anybody know if it’s an Apple software problem or can anyone help with new ideas?

    Can't mount iPod typically means that some software on your PC is interfering with your iPod and not allowing the iPod Updater or iTunes to update it. The troubleshooting steps in the following article usually resolve the issue.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    However, it sounds like your iPod currently is not registered at all. First, try resetting the iPod:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
    If that doesn't help, try restarting your computer. If that doesn't work, connect your iPod and see if it is recognized in My Computer as a removable disk. If it is, you can format it in Windows to resolve the issue.
    1. Right click on the removable disk
    2. Click format
    3. Click Quick format
    4. Click start
    5. Wait for confirmation that your disk has been successfully formatted. Once you receive this, and you close the formatting dialog box, iTunes should open up within the next 2 minutes or so, and offer you the iPod setup assistant, so you can go ahead and rename your iPod, and set your update preferences, and then your iPod should be good to go.
    P.S. What type of iPod do you have? I've been hearing rumors that the iPod nano has some kind of problem with the new iPod Updater. If you can't get the issue sorted out, and you do have an iPod nano, you might want to actually give Apple a call and see if there's any information they can give you.

  • 3rd generation iPod Touch and Video Out - "whoops!!!"

    Before I jump to any conclusions about Apple, here is my experience with the Video out operation of my brand new 3rd generation 64 GB iPod Touch. This is my third iPod and about a year ago I decided (at great personal expense) to purchase the Apple Composite AV Cable (despite the fact that you can buy copies of the cable on eBay for 1/10th the price). When I plugged this cable into my new iPod touch, the Video Out option was greyed out. I tried lots of different things but eventually gave up and went to the Apple Store to see what it said about compatability. Sure enough, the 3rd Generation Touch is the ONLY iPod, iPhone etc not mentioned. I call my friendly apple support person who says "*of course it will work, I am 100% sure*". I then jokingly asked if he would give me $1000 if he was wrong and begrudgingly he put me on hold "just to check". 15 minutes later (unusual for Apple) he came back to me saying that *I "might" be right but he was 100% sure that if I connected my cable via a Universal Dock it would work.*
    Now, before I go out and spend any more money on a Universal Dock, has anybody tried this? Why would apple make the change ONLY to the 3rd Gen iPod touch?
    I have noticed that there is one nasty non-apple cable on the market that claims it will work BUT it doesn't have the ability to charge...... besides I ONLY buy legit Apple products.
    Any comments?

    Wow Apple pulled tha last post almost as quick as it was written.
    I have been in the IT industry for 18 years, when I started out I read the Mac bible and got a job supporting 1000 macs (remember the wonderful days of the symbol of the little bomb and all you could do is re-install the OS - what a joke). We ditched the Mac due to limited application support (nothing has changed much has it). I did not look at another apple product for 15 years, got a Touch for free ( CC points) Firmware 2.2, loved the little bugger, had a whole new respect for Apple. Happily got 2 cables from eBay for $5.00 for both, video to the tv, charging, audio, best of all worlds. Then, I upgrade to version 3.01 for $5.00, what a deal, copy paste, etc. till I plug in my cables and nothing works anymore. Take it to the car for my FM receiver,. only mono now. Oh sorry you now have to dish out $50.00 for our cables (the /B version not the /A cause we even screwed our customers that bought our own cables) and oh ya you can only buy over priced FM receiver products that pay bloated license fees to Apple. Then we come to your story, you buy "Only Apple products" which do not work (check for the /A model of the cable, you need the /B (/B= Buy again?? Maybe) and then the support guy tells your to go out and spend yet another $50.00 on a universal dock and you are asking if you should do it. Sure spend another $50.00 for the chip enabled dock, it will work, hmm, I think I have put together a pc for less than $100.00
