IPod won't work with anything anymore...

I have a 30gb video ipod. I also have a clock radio and a little under cabinet radio system that my ipod can supposedly be connected to (the clock radio is the jensen clock radio, the under cabinet is an ilive). When I first purchased the under cabinet radio everything worked perfectly fine. Then I got the clock radio. I couldn't use the controls on the radio (skip, pause, etc) to control the ipod, nor could I get the ipod to stop playing (i.e. i couldn't pause the ipod, or switch to fm) if it was connected to the clock, thus negating all use as a clock radio. Subsequently, when I connected my ipod to the under cabinet radio again, I was no longer able to use the controls (skip, pause, etc.) on this unit either. Anyone have any advice?

Did you use the two button combo to reset the iPod?

If that does not work, try putting the iPod into disk mode first, then connect it to the computer.

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.

Please help! Ipod won't work with my itunes after plugged into MAC

Hi, I am brand new to my ipod and i plugged it into my PC to get it started, then i plugged it into a friends mac to get his songs- now when i plug it back into my computer it says it is linked to another itunes library and asks if i want to link it back to this one and replace all of the music. I do not want to loose all of the music but want it reconnected to my itunes with the music on my computer and taking the music on the ipod (from my friends itunes) into my itunes. What do i do? I apologize if this is something posted before,i couldn't find an answer. Please help!! thanks

That above article will not resolve the issue. It explaines it clearly in the article.
"Using an iPod formatted for Macintosh on a Windows computer is not supported. Using an iPod formatted for Windows on a Macintosh computer is not supported."
this means that it won't work with out a 3rd party tool. You HAVE to restore it if you take it between different OS. That document works only if your taking it between windows machines or all mac machines.

My new iPod won't work with iTunes 6 but...

Is it safe to get iTunes 7 yet?
Because I tried it before but it made the music dodgy.
So I eventually got 6 back, but it won't work with my new iPod.
Help?

Help Ipod won't work with my computer anymore!

I have a 5th gen Ipod and it has been working fine for the first month I've had it but recently I can't seem to get it to work with Itunes or even be detected on my computer. I've already tried all the things it says to do on the support page and none of it seems to be working. I've reinstalled everything and tried the Ipod updater but it won't work. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what should I do? Is there any way I can just get a new Ipod since I've only had this one for a month?

IPod won't work with new computer - please help

When I bought my iPod, I had it hooked up with Computer #1. That went with my ex-husband in the divorce, so I no longer have that computer.
I now have my parents' old computer, Computer #2. My dad has an iPod that was originally used with this computer, but none of his songs or libraries are on Computer #2 anymore. The iTunes library is totally empty. I tried hooking up my iPod, and it said that my iPod was already associated with another computer. So I authorized Computer #2 to play my iPod songs, and that didn't work either. I cannot deauthorize computer #1 since I don't have it anymore. ITunes would not let me deauthorize both computers, like it said you could do once a year.
I am at a loss for what to do. Thanks in advance.

Help-my ipod won't work with my mercedes.

I recently leased a mercedes ML, and my ipod will not work in it. The dealer said it is because I don't have the most updated software but itunes says I do. I have software version 1.2.3. Another ipod worked in my car but mine doesn't. Why is this? Is there another ipod update that I'm missing? Is my ipod too old to work in it? I read somewhere that I needed version 2.2, but I can't find that anywhere! Please help! Thank you.

Without knowing what happens when you try to restore via iTunes as the screen is telling:
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 another cable
- 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.

Java doesn't seem to work with anything anymore...

About 4 months ago, something strange started happening with Java...nothing that needs java works. (i.e. Yahoo Games, Pogo Games, trend micro house call, etc)
I've contacted the support people for those websites as well as the sun people. All gave me advice on uninstalling, reinstalling, unistalling again, installing an old version, unistalling that, changing tools, enabling, disabling, changing security levels, upping virtual memory, changing zones, etc, etc. etc. When I run the java test or load a java page, the page hangs forever, tries to start downloading, then crashes.
I'm at my wits end and so close to just reformatting or buying a new machine. I'll take any suggestions at this point.
I'm running Windows XP Home Service Pack 2, IE 7. (I've even tried running netscape.)
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,
I ran in to this problem and clearing the cache/deleting it manually 'fixed' the problem. Here's what I did:
right-click Start --> Explore --> Application Data (for user account I'm having problems with ) --> Sun --> Java --> Deployment --> cache --> 6.0 ( or whatever version you're running - should be a directory)
Delete all subfolders of 6.0
Delete all tmp files/subfolders anything else of a temporary nature
delete files in security, tmp, log, ext (these folders all at same level as cache directory)

WHAT HAS APPLE DONE? ipod won't work with itunes 9.0

I have an 80GB iPod, (MB147LL) when trying to sync with iTunes 9.0 the iPod gets corrupted. I have the luxury of having more than 1 type of Apple computer at home. All the computers that have been updated to iTunes 9.0 will corrupt the ipod all with itunes 8.2.1 will sync just fine. All systems are running 10.5.8 OSX. What is going on? I have several iPods and they all act the same. Surely this is not just a phenomena at my house.

I have solved the problem. You need to re-instore iTunes 8.21 by following these instructions:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10371925-263.html?tag=nl.e780
Would recommend backing every stage up though just in case.
Now plug the iPod into the computer. This is what happened. It still would not sync but said 'do not disconnect'. The iPod did this time show up on the desktop so I ejected it that way. Closed iTunes down and unplugged the iPod. Reconnected it to the computer. Opened iTunes. This time it synced. I let it finish syncing. But it still said do not disconnect. So I looked in iTunes and saw it was ticked for 'enable disk use'. Undid that and everything works just fine.

IPod won't work with iTunes

I just got a new laptop and I downloaded iTunes onto it. When I plugged in my iPod and tried to run it on iTunes, iTunes will only allow me to completely erase my iPod. How can I put all the music and playlists onto my new iTunes without erasing my iPod?

OK. That makes sense.
Be grateful that the "sync" didn't work. That also would have erased the iPod because your library is empty!
You need to first recover the library from your old computer and put on the new one. Go to the old computer, do a backup:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302392
Then, take that backuup and restore it to the new computer.
Next, you want to do the "5 Rs" to get the iPod up to snuff:

Finally, sync the iPod to transfer the music, videos, etc. to the iPod.

Any help here?

Casio Camera won't work with SL

My Casio EXZ850 camera doesn’t work with Snow Leopard.
Used it with Windows XP & then with Leopard just fine. When connect to USB ports not recognized by Mac. I checked System Profiler.app & under USB it is not listed. Casio Support is no help. They say it won’t work with anything above OS X 10.4 which is incorrect as I used it with 10.5 for over 1 year with no problems.

I take it that you ahve the IP set to static, or have a MAC address DHCP reservation for the camera, network settings OK.
WHat was the wireless authentication on the old router and what are you using on the new 4200?
Is it possible the camera does not support the encryption used by the 4200, i.e. wpa2-personal?
Have you tried WEP to see if the camera will work then?

HELP! my work ipod touches won't synch with Exchange anymore after the 5.1.1 upgrade

I may have solved it from another post....the "sync music" tab wasn't clicked under "Summary/Music". I had recently downloaded a more recent version of iTunes, and it may have defaulted to that....sigh.....
