IPOD WILL NOT WORK VIA USB WITH MY HOME TEATHRE

When I plug my iPod to my stereo via USB that came with iPod, stereo says no USB device connected and then after few seconds, it starts playing, although, iPod displays same screen as when synching with the Do Not Disconnect logo and cannot stop it from playing and when I disconnect it, I can't turn it off. This also happens occasionally, that I cannot turn it off.
Any help would be appreciate it.

When was the manual written? What constituted "all iPods" one year would not necessarily apply to iPods made later.
Throw away my iPod and get a new one?
I don't believe I suggested anything like that.
You might get better answers if you included the exact make and model of the home theatre system. You should also search the forums using the "Search Discussions" box to see if there are any other threads about your particular brand of home theatre. Also, did you ever check the support site or contact customer support for the home theatre and car stereo?
Best of luck.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

IPod will not work with docking stations

My 5th gen iPod works fine except it will not work with docking stations. I can sync it with my computer and it plays fine, just won't work with docking stations and other accessories like the Belkin FM radio converter. I bought a iMode boom box and it does not work properly with my iPod.
Any ideas??

Ipod will not work off charger

My ipod works fine while on the charger but when off it just will not work, I have to let it sit 2 days for it to work again on the charger so what is it

I just got help from the Apple Support on this. This just happened to me and thought I would share the solution. Hope you have saved all your iPod data because you have to restore all data.
Step 1: Toggle the on/off hold switch and then restart (center and menu together) until the screen goes blank.
Step 2: Immediately, while the screen is blank, hold the center and pause/play. That turns the iPod in disk mode.
Step 3: Plug in your iPod into your computer to restore it.
Problem solved...

2nd gen ipod will not work or neither of 2 computers will recognize it

My Daughters nano 2nd gen just stopped working, it will not do anything, "froze" up solid as she says.
I have gone through the "5Rs" but nothing will make the ipod show any life and nothing seems able to make the computer see the ipod. I can't do the "restore" option because the computer needs to acknowledge the ipod to complete that step.
I have 2 computers and neither computer recognizes the ipod at all. i have read all the troubleshooting tips, all the tips in the discussions any other suggestions, we are 4 hours away from an "Apple Store"
I am really new to this iPod world, and it appears there is nothing to friendly about it when it comes to this,

I am also having a similar problem when i try to connect my ipod it comes up with the error message "the software required for communicating with the ipod is not installed correctly. please reinstall itunes to install the ipods software."
i ran itunes diagnostics and it said that itunes helper is not running.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes many times doing the full uninstall as outlined on the support page. I have also tried installing an older version of itunes but this did not work either. I checked msconfig and ituneshelper.exe is selected to load at startup but when i check task manager it is not there.
Is there any way to fix this problem. I have been trying for two whole days to sort this. I have tried the ipod on other computers and it works fine so i am certain there is nothing wrong with the ipod.

2 iPods will not work on my computer, what is wrong? (please help)

Okay, so I bought a refurbished 40gb iPod on ebay about 3 weeks ago. When I got it, I plugged it in, it came on, iTunes opened up and asked me what I wanted to name the iPod. I name it, then it starts to sync. It brings over my folders from iTunes, then says "copying song 1 of 143..." Then it just stops and says "you may disconnect your iPod", but none of the songs have been copied.
I tried unplugging it and then plugging it back in, and now it gives an error message saying "the iPod may be corrupted, you should restore..." I try to restore it and the restoration fails because of an "unknown error". I've tried using different USB ports, tried resetting the iPod, gone through the 5Rs, even updated the digital signatures in XP. NO DICE.
Now when I plug the iPod in, windows says it's an unrecognized device. I reset it which fixed that problem, but iTunes still can't deal with it. It keeps saying it's corrupted and to restore it but restoration fails.
I tried it on my other comp (also an XP box), and iTunes said it was synced to another computer, do you want to erase it and sync it to this computer, etc. etc. I did so, and once again, it brings over the folders but no songs will copy. Then the nonsense with the errors starts all over again and it refuses to let me restore it.
I returned the first iPod to the guy and he sent me another one and it's doing the EXACT same thing as the first. iPod seems fine otherwise, wheel works fine, it charges normally, shows 37.1 GB free space on the iPod screen. But refuses to work. "the ipod could not be restored" error 1418, and all that. I can't even format it under windows.
Any suggestions? I've tried everything I know of except for uninstalling iTunes 7 and going back to 6.

You haven't mentioned re-registering the DLL's in windows xp which is the suggested fix on Windows XP for ipod's doing this.
Disconnect the iPod from the computer and close iTunes.
Copy the 10 lines below (highlight and ctrl+c or right-click and copy)
regsvr32 /s softpub.dll
regsvr32 /s wintrust.dll
regsvr32 /s dssenh.dll
regsvr32 /s rsaenh.dll
regsvr32 /s gpkcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s sccbase.dll
regsvr32 /s slbcsp.dll
regsvr32 /s mssip32.dll
regsvr32 /s cryptdlg.dll
regsvr32 /s initpki.dll
Open notepad:
1. Start>Run
2. Type 'notepad'
3. Hit return
Paste the text into notepad (ctrl+v or right-click and paste)
Save the file as registerdll.bat on your desktop
Close notepad
Doubleclick the registerdll.bat file on the desktop
A command prompt will appear and these items will be processed. When it is finished you can delete the batch file.
See if it then syncs okay.

Fourth Generation iPod will not stay in Sync with iTunes

My wife has a 20GB 4th generation Ipod that she uses everyday. Every 2-3 weeks the some of the playlists will not play. When entering a the playlist it will advance through the entire list and then will go back to the main menu. This does not happen with all lists but when re-syncing with iTunes it will work for a few weeks then start again. Any Help?

Have you tried the basics?

New Officejet Pro 6830 will not print via USB connection. It scans great to PC. It copies.

New HP Officejet Pro 6830 for user to have local USB printer/scanner at desk. User runs win 7 64 bit on a network. Raninstall through setup.exe. Followed steps, connected printer via USB when it said to and it detected it and finished install.You can use HP Scan software and it scans to the PC perfectly. It will not print from any application or even a testpage from the Printer Properties page. If you go to the maintenance application it will print status and test page. If you run HP Scan and Print doctor it does it's thing, gives all Green Check marks and lets you print a test page fine, but it stillwill not print even a test page from the printer properties page (start/Devices and Pritners/right click on Officejet Pro 6830, select Printer Properties for Officejet Pro 6830 (not the Fax 6830), and click print test page. It does not seethe printer. It is a networked PC and has network defined HP network printers as well but user wanted a printer/scanner at his desk. I actually took the unit and connected to my laptop which is same win 7 64 bit platform and it does the same thing. I disable the virus protection to do the install so that is not an issue. It clearly sees and installs the printer, andlike I said the HP Scan works fine so it is connected via the USB to the PC, but it will not print. I have tried to install from the CD, and removed device and tried to install from the new downloaded drivers as well and it just does not want to print.I have conected to different USB ports, and like I said actually tried it on a different PC and had same results. Guidance certainly would be appreciated.

Hi , I see by your post that you can scan, but are unable to print over the USB connection. I would be happy to help you.
I have provided a document for setting Security permissions for printing to see if that will help. If the issue persists, reinstall the printer on the Administrator Account to see if you have the same results.Unlock Hidden Administrator Account and install the printer on this account: Go to your Start menu and under the 'search programs and files' box type CMD. CMD will populate as a search option above, just right click on it and 'run as administrator'. Once CMD (Command Prompt) opens, type net user administrator /active:yes and hit enter. Next, close CMD and restart your computer. When your computer comes on log into the new account that should show. It will be called Administrator and will not have a password on it. If your computer automatically logs into your account after restart than go to your start menu click the arrow beside 'shutdown' and choose 'switch user'. Now log into the Administrator account we just unlocked.Under the Administrator account, install the printer software. Test the printer. To turn off the Admin account start back at step 1 and type in net user administrator /active:no.Please let me know the outcome. If you appreciate my efforts, please click the 'Thumbs up' button below. Thank You.

New iPod will not sync song ratings with iTunes

A few months ago I bought an iPhone (my first Apple MP3 player) and loaded it up with some music and everything worked fine between it and iTunes. I would rate some songs on the iPhone and synced it up with iTunes and it transferred those song ratings over with no problems.
I later got rid of the iPhone and bought an iPod 4GB Nano and loaded it up with music but when I rated some songs and synced it up with iTunes it would not transfer the ratings over. It would transfer over the ratings fine from iTunes to the iPod but not the other way around. I removed and reinstalled iTunes and deleted the iTunes folder within the My Music folder on my computer and reloaded iTunes and imported all my music again. Restored and reset my iPod and tried again, it still will not transfer over the song ratings from iPod to iTunes.
So I figured I got a screwed up iPod (it was a refurb) and decided to go ahead and upgrade. Bought a brand new iPod 8GB Nano and the same thing is happening again. Although it's not absolutely critical to be able to rate songs it helps in getting my music library sorted in deciding what to keep or not.
Any idea what to do short of reinstalling Vista or moving my music library over to another computer to sync with?

Hi, I just sorted out this problem for my ipod touch. Jose9550 and Chris in CA did not explain very well how it is to be sorted - their posts helped me but iI sort of discovered it by accident. My main problem was that the ipod did not update itunes with my track ratings made direct with the touch screen whilst listening to tracks.
Here is how I found out how to sort it:
Step 1: Click on the option in the summary screen to manually manage the music on you Ipod. Back up any tracks/playlists that you don't want to lose.
Step 2: Create a few playlists with music that you want on Ipod
Step 3: Click on your Ipod name in Itunes side bar and then select the Music tab on the main panel on the right. Now click on the check box "Sync Music". This will bring up a prompt that all your music /playlists currently on the Ipod may be erased. Accept this message and then click on check box "Selected playlists". Now pick the playlists/playfolders you want synced. Click apply.
Step 4: Go into the menu bar in itunes and select Edit>Preferences>Devices> and uncheck box beside "Disable Automatic syncing for IPhones and IPods"
Now any changes made to the playlists/tracks etc on the desktop or IPod will be transferred in both directions.

Although my printer working properly in direct connection via usb,not working when connected via usb to my airport time capsule. when I chose printer In nearby printer list this error apeared:"the software for this printer is currently unavailable please contact the manufacturer for latest version" when I chose add printer and chose the printer model this error apeared:"the printer information has not been acquired"

My iPod will not work after initial install

When I first set up my iPod, I used the USB in the rear of my computer. Then I remembered that I use that port for my external hard drive, which happened to be disconnected at the time. When I tried to plug the iPod into one of the USB's in the front, I started getting errors saying that the iPod was corrupt. Mind you I just got it today!! So I tried restoring the iPod, but it still would not work properly. I got errors that say: "Ipod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (1415)" "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod. The requested resource was not found" "iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be correpted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod." Any suggestions?? Does the iPod need to go back??

So I tried restoring the iPod, but it still would not work properly. I got errors that say: "Ipod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (1415)" "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod. The requested resource was not found"
are you using an itunes 7.0.0.70, or an itunes 7.0.1.8? to check, go "help > about itunes" and wait for the version number to scroll up from the bottom of the screen.
if you've got a 7.0.0.70, first try an upgrade to 7.0.1.8:
iTunes 7.0.1.8 Installer
if you still get the 1415 when using 7.0.1.8, let's get your iPod Updater logs to the Apple engineers for a look.
Open this folder:
C:\Documents and Setings\yourusername\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Updater Logs
(You may need to show hidden files in order to see the Application Data folder. Open up My Computer, and in the Tools menu, choose "Folder Options..." Then go to the View tab, and then in the "Advanced settings", select "Show hidden files and folders.")
Send the files inside the iPod Updater logs folder as attachments to this email address.
In the email to Roy, be sure to include the following information:
- A link to the thread on Apple Discussions where the issue is being discussed
- The username you are using in the thread
- The version of iTunes you are using or trying to use
- A concise description of the issue you are seeing
- The exact text of the error message you are seeing

Ipod will not work properly

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

HP Officejet Pro 8500A 910A, Vista 32-bit, will not connect via usb to my PC!!!

I used to have this all in one connected to my pc, until I was experiencing a few printing issues, so I decided to uninstall it! When I tried to reinstall it, the pc will not connect it. I have tried different ports and have replaced the cable, also downloaded the latest software and drivers all to no avail. I can connect wirelessly to my laptop, but unfortunately this isn't a solution for my desktop as it's not wireless, therefore it has to be connected via usb. At my wits end, please help me!!!!!
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello,
Can you try inserting a flash drive into one of the USB ports in the printer, to make sure it reads it?
The port on the printer might be what's giving you the issue. Also, can you try connecting the printer USB to a different PC?
Let me know the outcome.
