ITunes froze while updating iPod firmware...

I was trying to install the latest version of software on my iPod touch (4gen) and it's frozen halfway through. My iPod has a little loading bar on it, as does iTunes, both are maybe a third of the way through and have been stuck on the exact same spot for a good hour now. iTunes says it's still running, and I really don't want to have to unplug it and have to restore it, is there anything I can do?

okay, force quit iTunes, now after about 5 minutes its done restoring, now its putting the old software back on
hope this comes out ok

  • Itunes crashes while updating ipod

    can anybody help me with this problem my itunes always crashes while im in the middle of updating my ipod

    Try using the iPod software updater to restore settings to factory default and then upload all you music back onto it.
    If that doesn't work, try to post some more details about it crashing; Does the iPod lock up your system? Does iTunes lock up? Does iTunes shut down?

  • ITunes closes while updating iPod

    Everytime I hook up my iPod mini to update it, iTunes closes and Windows asks to send an error report. Yeah. I need help. It's not the iPod. I tried it on my friend's PC and it loaded songs on the iPod just fine. (I'm now stuck with an iPod full of pop music...) I've reinstalled iTunes like twice and I don't know what to do next.
    (iTunes works fine until I hook the stupid iPod up...)

    I am having the same problem and it did not start until after I updated to the latest version. Can anybody help?

  • While updating Ipod we now have a blank screen and when connecting to itunes the ipod is not showing under devices

    While updating ipod touch we now have a blank screen. I have updated itunes but am unable to sync because the ipod does not show under devices. I have tried shuttng down and restarting but only have a blank screen or ap0ple logo. Sometimes the screen shows connect to itunes but that has been it.

  • Itouch froze on "connect to itunes" screen while updating

    Itouch froze on "connect to itunes" screen while updating from 5 to 5.01, what to do???

    It happen to me several times, I just simply wait until it is out of battery and connect it to my itunes and it will show up in my computer. if the problem cannot be solved in this way, you can connect it to computer after several days of running out of battery and it may work. I know it is a little bit stupid idea,but it did work on my itouch

  • While updating ipod touch 4 i got an error message now stuck with apple symbol and empty bar. can i restart ipod?

    while updating ipod touch 4 i got an error message now stuck with apple symbol and empty bar. can i restart ipod?

    - What was the error message?
    - Try closing iTunes and then disconnect the iPod from the computer. Then reconnect the iPod.  If the iPod shows in iTunes then you can try again.  However, You should try to resolve the error message first.
    - If iTunes does not see the iPod try reetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - I recommend that you come back with the what the error message said and the condition of the iPod and if it is visible in iTunes.

  • Access Privileges problem while updating ipod

    Access Privileges problem while updating ipod
    so im having troubles updating my ipod when i attempt to update it i get a message that says The ipod "Mitch" cannot be updated you do not have enough access privileges for this opperation
    some of my things are updated but not all
    any help would be greatly appreciated!

    hi j.block!
    hmmmmmmmmmmm. one other thing that might be worth a try if all else fails. i have once seen something like this turn out to be caused by a really kinky version of this issue:
    iTunes: "privileges" or "permissions" issue when importing audio CD or adding music to library
    ... where the permissions were odd on the ipod itself ... but i've only seen that happen once. it's probably worth checking on only if nothing else seems to be working for you.
    love, b

  • While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen

    While updating the firmware Update, i disrubted the download and now my macbook won't start up! Any suggestions on how to fix it? i only see a black screen and when i press the power button i hear the noise that it would make if it was going to start up. But i only see black.

    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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Screen Froze While Updating

    At first i couldn't put apps on my iPod so my friend and i started an update on her computer. Then the screen froze while updating. (screen has the apple sign with a loading like bar under it) So we let it go for a couple hours and it still didn't do anything. We unplugged the iPod and it wouldn't turn off! So i let it die and i tried restoring it at my house and i thought it would work but it did not. It had the same screen as when i was updating it and i've about had it. So please, if you have any suggestions, tell me please!!!
