Ipod will not work properly, even when restored
Okay, so i have my 60gb 5th Gen Ipod Video. this just started happening the other day...it would crash...freeze up...so im like okay..just restore it and reinstall everything (rockbox, IPL, classic theme)..and it STILL HAPPENS! it freezes up... so theres something wrong somewhere....i just installed the classic firmware (the correct one for 5g) and IT STILL FREEZES. so im like...alright...its the firmware/ theme....so i just restored it (to 1.2.1) and YET IT STILL FREEZES!!! So i think my ipod is broke now...any clues? Also, when i physically reset the ipod (menu+select), i notice that sometimes a blue background pops up. I can include picutres if you need to see.

I've had my ipod mini for over a year, and now the battery won't charge at all. I just plugged it in, the laptop picks it up, but then every couple minutes or so it says "low battery" and it starts beeping and then it doesn't do anything, and the comp keeps making the sound when you attach and deattach things via the USB port when that happens.
I'm guessing I should send it in for repair, but my question was is the battery the problem, and would it be more logical to buy a new ipod or just send it in for repair?
And when I entered the serial number off the back of it it says it doesn't recognize it (on the repair part of the site).
EDIT: The moment after I posted it...it started working again o_O;;. So yea...should I still send it for repair to be better safe than sorry or what XD?my bro has had his iPod mini for about 2 years now and his has really low battery as well. for instance he has to charge it via usb about 3 times while hes at school, and still by the time he gets home there is no battery left.
anyway, i wouldnt say yours is due for repair yet.
my brothers beeps when you plug it in the pc as well. basically the battery is really low. after about 10 minutes it will have enough charge and it will come up in iTunes and u can just carry on.
theres nowt wrong wi ur iPod mate. just a low battery and a worrying beep -
My ipod naaIno is stuck in the lock position, my hold switch will not turn off even when I move it. I have tried restoring it and resetting it and it still comes back on in the hold/locked postion. It will only play when placed on a docking station and then I cant scroll to pick songs, I can only go to next song using buttons on docking station.
You will need to have the hold switch replaced.

i photo will not email photos even when the email address is correct and I am online. I get a message that my server is maybe down but it is not. Anything to do with a setting I have missed? Thank you
In iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete and re-enter the information for that account
Or better yet IMHO set Apple Mail as the e-mail client

my home button will not work properly... I have to hold it down several times for it to go to the home screen
I would try a restore just to see if it could be something software related, but if that doesn't work I would recommend taking to an Apple Store to see if it is a serious hardware issue and if it is, assuming you're in warranty, then they would be able to replace your phone.

My ipod is not working at all when i plug it into my laptop i get an itunes sign and below that plugin sign also it says new software found however it first asks me to install the software disc which i dont have it with me now can you plz check for the same and reply asap...please thanks.
The link I and Ingo provided included:
1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
That is more than quicktime and iTunes. Follow all the instruction in the link for removing and reinstalling the Apple software. -

Hi, I have connected my iPhone 5 to iTunes, backed it up and then started the update but there was a problem, now my phone will not work, it asks to restore factory settings which I have tried 3 times, each time it says the device has an unknown error and the phone switches off. Please help.
Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help. Thanks Apple for such a crappy update! I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone. Sheesh! If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

My Ipod will not work anymore its just the apple showing could you please help me restart?
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 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.

Older ipod will not work under itunes11
My older ipods will not work under itunes 11, Who can help?
i think at this point we are unsure if the problem is that apple has once again decided to leave something older in the dust (as they've been doing a LOT lately) or that you've found a bug in itunes 11 that will be addressed at a later date. just how old are these ipods? if they were mine and i had to choose between itunes 11 and my ipods i would choose my ipods. right now i would look around the itunes forums and see if anyone else has this problem.
