Ipod will not do anything.. more than 1 problem please read.

Ok, so here's the deal.
My Ipod Video won't turn on, it won't restore, it won't show up anywhere on my computer.
It has a virus on it but it won't show up on Itunes so I can restore it.
I'm 100% sure the battery is charged and everything.

if you cant get anything to work on it then try calling apple, their not much help though, personally i think the people at the store i bought it from are a bigger help. my old nano did that twice and they said i needed a new one

  • When syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen.  have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing.

    when syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen.  have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing.  Ipad does not show up in itunes even though cable plugged in.  Have shut down and restarted Windows 7 computer.

    I had done all of that to no avail.  I did call Apple Tech Support and after he suggested I try a USB port in the rear of the Win 7 computer, things starting working again.  I had tried switching the USB port at the front of the machine but that had not helped.  Everything is good to go again.  thanks for  your reply

  • My iPhoto was deleted so I re-installed it, since then iPhoto will not say open more than 10-15 seconds.  How do I get it to stay open and keep my pictures?

    My iPhoto was deleted so I re-installed it & since then, iPhoto will not say open more than 10-15 seconds.  How do I get it to stay open and keep my pictures?
    It's a MacBook Pro, I got it last year (2010) not sure where to find the operating system info. 
    Please Please Please Help!
    Thanks!

    I always recommend backing up the iPhoto Library file under your Pictures folder first.
    You can try removing the iPhoto Preference file in your User Library folder. Close iPhoto. If you are using Snow Leopard (10.6) click on Go in the Finder menu bar. Click on Library. If you are now on Lion (10.7), you'll have to hold Option key while clicking Go to see the Library selection. Once here, find the Preferences folder. In here, look for the following:
    com.apple.iPhoto.plist
    Move this file to the desktop. Start iPhoto and see what happens. If it is working, you can delete the file you moved to the desktop. This should not delete any photos, but will reset iPhoto as if it's the first time you are opening it (so your preferences you set may need to be set back).
    If this doesn't work, let me know.

    I have Imatch and songs stop playing on my iphone I try to start it again and it will not play for more than 2-4 seconds, does anyone have the solution to this problem?

    By "hard reset" you mean hold down the Home and power buttons until the iOS device restarts, correct?

  • Ipod will not play anything purchased from itunes!!!

    My ipod will not play anying thing purchased from itunes. It plays ok on itunes but it skips it on my ipod. I have restored my ipod athoritized my computer and I cant find any answers in help. Please help me!!!

    See this article.
    iPod does not play content purchased from the iTMS.
    If you have made sure that both the iTunes and iPod software are current and have deauthorized and reauthorized your computer, try this test:
    1. Deauthorize the computer.
    2. Create a new user in the system.
    3. Download the free song of the week from the iTMS in the new user account.
    4. Play the song in that user account to authorize again.
    5. Restore the iPod (using the iPod updater) in the new user account.
    6. Sync just the free song of the week and see if it plays on the iPod.
    If it does, you appear to have a corrupted iTunes library file, and you should recreate the iTunes library file in your normal user account, and then sync your music back to the iPod and all should be well.

  • WRT54GX4 Router Will Not Connect to More Than One Computer at a Time Wireless

    I have a WRT54GX4 and cannot connect wirelessly with more than one laptop at a time.  Each laptop I have will connect if I disconnect the other one.  I have upgraded to 1.00.20 firmware and tried to find a setting for the router to address the problem without success.

    double check on the mac addresses that you have saved so that your wireless computers can connect properly to your netwok, or you could just disable the mac filtering so that all of your computers can easily connect, just secure your wireless network

  • Equium L300 - Will not install anything other than Microsoft downloads

    Equium L300 updated with Windows 7. I am a novice where PCs are concerned so any help welcomed. My notebook will not install "programmes" (eg Java AVG etc etc) It down loads, ask to run then nothing happens. It used to ! .
    I have tried just about everything I can think of but now can't see the wood for the trees. I stand to lose 50 after trying to update my sat nav!

    Thanks for your reply(s)... you may think "moron" but where is setup.exe. I have turned of Firewall and uninstalled Norton and previously AVG.
    It seems that if the "programme" eg adobe, Google Earth is in my PC already it will install .New things seem to be the problem. I installed Windows 7 But I seem to remember that I had this prob before with XP and foolishly thought that it would resolve it's self.
    I am terrible for looking into the background and checking and un checking things I know nothing about could it be something as simple as that ?
    what would happen if I used the recovery discs!!?? and how do I do it safely
    Sorry to be so thick ......woman driver !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ipod nano 3rd generation , blank screen when attached to computer, ipod will not reset??? any help please?

    I am now unable to restart ipod.  ipos is still being recognised by itunes so I tried to restart ipod whielst attatched to itunes to to try and put into play mode but still no joy, no apple appearing on screen.
    Ipod was fully charged.
    Any ideas please as I am not the most technical of people and its slowly driving me mad
    Kind Regards
    Lindsey

    How did you try and reset the iPod? To reset the iPod, first make sure the hold switch is in the Off position, then press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together at the same time long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  Don't be afraid to try this procedure more than once.

  • My nano ipod will not do anything but flash the apple logo.  Help?

    I have tried ever diagnostic tool available. Have reset it many times. Have even done every troubleshooting thing it suggests to no avail. I just got it for Xmas and am very frustrated having spent all day yesterday trying to fix it.

    Hello Everyone,
    Although this resolution seems ingenious I must let you know that exposing your iPod to freezing temperatures can cause serious harm and it will void your warranty. Please see the following excerpt from the iPod Safety Guide available at Apple.com.
    Keeping iPod within acceptable temperatures
    Operate iPod in a place where the temperature is always between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F). iPod play time might temporarily shorten in low-temperature conditions.
    Store iPod in a place where the temperature is always between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave iPod in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.
    When you’re using iPod or charging the battery, it is normal for iPod to get warm. The exterior of iPod functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.
    Have a great day!

  • When I try to remote access to my VPN email a java preference box opens and will not do anything more.

    I have always been able to remote access to my office email through VPN access. Now when I try to, a Java preference box pops up and there seems to be no way to get past it. Before, java would just load. Now it won't. I had my operating system upgraded and Java reinstalled but this did not solve the problem.
    Any ideas?

    Please post a screenshot.

  • Firefox will not run in more than one desktop simultaneously. It will not connect in the second desktop unless it is first closed in the one already open.

    I don't know what I can add here.

    Sorry, I am not sure what is meant by a Windows account. My wife and I share an internet account, each with our own ID and password. We share a computer each with our own desktop. Prior to the last Mozilla update, it was common for each of us to have Mozilla open on our respective desktops. Since the update, that is no longer possible. If one of us has left Mozilla open, the other cannot open it on their desktop unless the first is closed. I hope that helps.
