Ipod won't reset or be recognized after new software download

I connected my 160GB ipod and got a message to download new software for the ipod (Not itunes). I believe it was version 7.6.2, but not sure. I got an “OK to disconnect” message, and did so. Then my ipod went into reset mode and is stuck in this loop of just trying to reset. All I get is the apple icon over and over and over again. Tried to rest manually but get the same thing. The website said to let the battery run down completely and try again. I did this and nothing changed. The website also stated to download a new version of itunes. Did this, no change. My itunes won’t even open up when I plug my ipod into the computer. How do I get this fixed? Thanks.

Remove iTunes completely (incl. any Apple folder in D:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data)
Restart your computer
Download it again and reinstall it.
If the problem remains, you might consider an alternative iPod manager such as these http://ipodmanagers.blogspot.com

  • I cannot find the backup of my phone on iTunes after new software download

    I recently had to download new software for my husbands iPhone 4. It had not been updated in over a year. I synced his phone and made sure there was a fresh backup. After I downloaded the new software and installed it on the phone it will not find his backup. iTunes also does not show his phone as one I'm able to select. I is recognizing it as a new device.

    Check iTunes for the back up.

    Any fixes?

    I also had problems with iTunes 7 when it first came out, but 7.0.2 is working for me and seems to have fixed a lot of the problems. It's worth a try if you need iTunes 7 for your new iPod.

    When this happened the first time I found a link on the HP site that was helpful but cannot find this link now but it was just about the same as:
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01691296&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&ju...
    I find the Print Quality Troubleshooting page confusing. It does not address misalignment. The test pages you get when you press the green button for 2-3 seconds clearly shows misalignment of the magenta cartridge but when replaced with a HP cartridge the exact same misalignment occurs.
    I also tried using high grade paper with no change.
    HPPDU.exe was run and showed no conflicts.
    I updated my printer firmware HPCP1210_FW_Update-20100201.exe

  • 5th Generation iPod won't reset

    Hi guys,
    I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out. I just bought a new iPod 5th Generation (30gb with video). For some reason, it froze and won't reset. I've tried to do what apple.com says (hold menu and play buttons), but it doesn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks a lot

    Never mind. I was pressing the wrong buttons. Oh well, live and learn, right? Lol. Alright, so I'm good for now.
    Thanks

  • My ipod won't back up, it stalls after a few seconds. What can I do?

    I'm trying to back up all my stuff from my old ipod so I can load it onto the new one. The bar at the top reads backing up but it's been sitting for about an hour and hasn't loaded any further. What can I do?

    Mine has also be acting up the same way.
    I read somewhere to reset the sync history, which can let u sync the ipod but it still gives you the error msg that it couldnt back up your ipod.

    If this is brand new, you might want to think about returning it for an exchange. You shouldn't need to fool around trying to solve this issue with a brand new unit.

  • My Mac 10.7.5 won't shut down after new software (security update 2013-003) installation-- hangs at grey screen with "software update" at top.  It also intermittently goes to sleep without my asking.  What to do?

    My Mac 10.7.5 won't shut down after a new software installation (Security Update 2013-003).  It just hangs at a grey screen with "Software Update" at the top.  I have to force quit, then restart-- but the new software hasn't installed.
    My Mac also intermittently goes into Sleep mode, repeatedly, unprompted by me.  I suspect a connection between these two problems.
    I have tried deleting the /Library/Updates folder.  It hasn't helped.  The update still won't install, and my Mac won't shut down without my forcing the quit.
    Help please!

    Hi, I've just come accross the same problem... did you manage to get a resolution??
    Cheers, Chris.

  • My 3G won't restore to backup after new software install

    I tried downloading the new operating software for my 3G and had minor problems. After reading online that it is best to go thru the restore process versus updating, my husband and I both followed the procedure online. We both backed up our phones and then restored them to factory settings. This installed the new software on the phone. After that, we restored to back-up. My husband did this with no problem. I have had so many problems. Basically, my phone will restore to factory settings with new software, but when I try restoring to back0up, the phone just freezes up and continues to the reboot screen over and over and over until you hold the nap and home buttons to shut down phone. I keep getting error messages such as "your iphone cannot be synced. the required disk cannot be found.
    HELP!!! I called apple and after 4 calls, the only solution was to take m phone into an Apple store for service. The problem is I live over 150 miles from an Apple store.
    Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. I have even tried just running on the restored phone with nothing on it for 2 days and tried backing up today and had the same problem again. Currently, I have no contacts, no emails, no photos, no music, no anything and I live and die by my phone.
    Please help!!

  • Phone doesn't show up after new software update

    After dowloading the new software I am unable to see my phone when connected to the computer. I'd like to transfer music and pictures but now I can't. Any idea how to get my phone to show back up in iTunes?

    First, click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen then click Software Update...
    If the system is up to date, try reinstalling the AMDS...

    And if you have anti virus software installed, disable that before connecting the iPod to your Mac.

  • Getting Apple TV to work after new software for it was downloaded

    I purchased the apple TV 2 several months ago and it worked fine.  After it suggested new software I downloaded it. After that I could not operated the apple tv.  It simply showed the apple logo on my tv.  I reset it many times as well as the modem and apples router.  The input for the apple tv is ethernet direct from the  router.  I have checked the itunes and have home sharing on.  Any help is appreciated.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds, to begin with.
    If you can't get past the logo, get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.
    Do not disconnect your Apple TV's power cable during the restore process.
