See these first.
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation point after disconnecting.
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation point when you turn it on.
There is also a pretty comprehensive post written by another forum member which is about the sad iPod icon or folder icon. Be aware that it's quite involved and contains some info that will almost certainly void the warranty. If your iPod is still within the warranty period, you should use that option first.

  • Major help need with ipod mini

    My ipod mini turns on. The menu appears, however when I click to play music nothing happens, it's frozen at that point. I have reset it, lost my music and tried to download my playlist again and it will not download. Appreciate any advice.

    Strange, doing a reset will no erase data in your iPod, but restore does. Suggest that you plug your iPod with your PC and open the iPod updater (u may need to download for the latest version) and do a restore, for further info read the following .. it is really very helpful

  • What could possibly be wrong with this Ipod? Major help needed

    I got my girlfriend a Nano for christmas, the 2gb, she bought a case, said she never did anything wrong with it. I let her install the Itunes and such by herself on her computer and magically the next day the **** Ipod is almost completely dead.
    It's been a week and I've just now got time to work on it, but when I first heard something was wrong with it whenever we plugged the Ipod in it would show the Apple logo and then a battery with the lightning symbol to it's left. I read I should let the battery drain, then charge it, did that, I am trying to reinstall Itunes on my ocmputer but doesn't even seem to see the **** Ipod.
    The Ipod doesn't even turn on and is making a pretty bad buzzing noise, absolutely nothing happens, computer doesn't see it, it doesn't turn on, it's just overall broke and I don't want to send it back to apple and pay the full retail price to get it fixed.

    Same thing happened with a friend of mines Nano. The unit is defective. Check your warranty. Hopefully she registered it so that you qualify to have it replaced. Bummer!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    You need to download and install the latest version of iTunes:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Ambie12, You should probably start a new thread for your issue if downloading iTunes 7.5 doesn't help.
    Coolmaxx, have a read of this article:

  • RH9 Crashing When Generating WebHelp - MAJOR Help Needed

    Hello,
    Our software release date is next Thursday, August 18th, so I'm a bit panicky. What's happening has never happened before. Every time I try to generate WebHelp, RH9 crashes while "Updating Files". There are two of us working on the project...maybe something has gotten messed up? Can anyone tell me what I should check, or what I should do? Below is a screenshot of the error, as well as the error report itself.
    In the above screenshot, you can see the Output View at the bottom of the window, and the crash happens during "Updating files..."  Does anyone know what this means? I REALLY need help. If I can't get this figured out, we're in major trouble - possibly no Help released for our product. A trillion thanks in advance for anyone who can help.
    Below is the contents of the error report
    Message was edited by Peter Grainge - The text posted has been removed as it was over 100 pages long and made the thread very difficult for forum supporters to assist. I have deleted it and put the text into a text file that is attached.

    Can we start with some questions to see what is going on here.
    Has this project ever compiled correctly, either in RH9 or another version?
    Is this a new installation of RH9?
    Can you generate any RH project. Try generating one of the supplied dummy projects (e.g. SalesBuilder)?
    Can you generate any other output formats from this project (e.g. CHM)?
    Have you tried creating a new WebHelp SSL?
    If none of this works, perhaps you can post some more details of what exactly has changed since the last successful generation.

  • WRT350N..Major Help Needed

    Ok...I've just about had it with calling Linksys and not getting any help at all.  I am trying to connect an external hard drive into the USB port and access it wirelessly.  I can not get it to work.  When I go to Networks on my computer (I have Vista) I see 2 Linksys WRT350n listed.  When I click on one, it asks me for my password.  I type it in and it goes to the Linksys set-up page.  When I click on the other one, it also asks me for my password...yet it doesn't work.  It always changes my username to Fitzgerald-PC/admin and NOTHING is working.  A technition with Linksys had the nerve to say that they don't make a router that has a USB capability!  UGH!  If anyone can help me...I would really appreciate it.  Please email me at [email protected]!  I need some major assistance.  Thanks!!!!

    hmmm... they did? I wonder what they call a WRT350N router then... anyway, can't really help much... i only know basic routers and devices which are what I have...  hehe..

  • HELP WITH VIDEO IPOD BATTERY LIFE

    i recently purchased an ipod for my birthday and im very dissapointed in the battery life. can any1 tell me any tips to making a battery last longer? and ive noticed that it doesnt always charge up to full.
    please help, thanks

    One thing you might want to try is letting your
    batter die completely until your iPod won't even turn
    on, and then recharging it fully. When you keep
    recharging li-ion batteries when they do not need to
    be, like when they're still half-charged, they will
    burn out a lot quicker. The best thing is to
    completely drain it each time before you recharge it.
    Actually, that's the opposite of what I've heard. I heard it's better not to completely drain the battery before you recharge, and only do a full dischage every 30 charges or so to keep the battery fresh.

  • Problem installing Creative Suite CS4, major help needed

    Basically I need help asap because I uninstalled my previous versions of PS etc to install this and work has to be done.
    I installed the "Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection" yesterday without problems, but then something happened to my machine last night which forced me to do a system restore.
    I restored and the suite was no longer installed, since then I have had many problems trying to install it again.
    It keeps getting up to about 5/8 of the progress bar then it freezes on "Currently installing Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin". I did have trouble trying to install "Adobe Flash Player 10" before and finally managed to do it, but it's still freezing when installing the suite.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Liam

    OK now it's installed, all of the programs work fine except for photoshop.
    I did have photoshop cs2 and cs3 previously installed.
    I load up "Adobe Photoshop CS4" and it starts loading, it says "initialising" etc and then when it gets to "Building TWAIN menu items" it pops up with the "Adobe Photoshop CS4 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" message window asking me to "Send Error Report".
    Any ideas please?
    Regards

  • Major Help Needed....

    Not exactly sure what is going on. I got an Ipod 40 gb with dock. Plugged into USB and transfered some of my music to my Ipod. Then I added more CD's to my library and even bought one from the apple store total about 150 songs added. When I plug in my Ipod after my computer boots up Itunes starts to load and then freezes everytime. When I try to disconnect the Ipod from my computer, it denies me saying "Device inuse, try again later." Another problem I am experiencing is that either my whole computer locks up when the Ipod is connected to my computer or just the task bar locks up and becomes unuseable. Which I wouldnt mind but my chat programs and other things only run in the back ground and dont have an icon I can alt+tab too.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Stephen
    P.S. I have Win XP Pro

    I have reset my computer about 30 times today trying to get it to work...all other programs are closed when I connect my Ipod. System is running around 3-7 % when it is connected.

  • Major help needed with replacing xskey

    here's the pickle...
    i lost my logic pro 7 xskey while traveling.
    i can't install/update studio without it, nor run pro 7.
    i am currently in a country that doesn't have apple support phone lines.
    i can't contact any other apple support phone lines from where i currently am.
    I NEED TO FIND A SOLUTION ONLINE, FAST !!!
    someone that has information/influence please help me.
    praying for a solution.

    You didn't say why you are installing. If you've already installed the upgrade on your machine, you won't need the key.
    If you are reinstalling, you shouldn't need to key (because your machine is already authorised).
    If you are trying to install your copy of LS on a different machine entirely, then that's different. If you are re-installing on your main machine because you had to reformat, if you'd save your authorisation file you may not have needed to reauthorise again.
    What I'm saying is, if you gave some specifics of what and why you are doing this, then I might have been able to help you without having to bother Apple.
    But if you are trying to install on a different machine and don't have your dongle, the only people who can legally help you is Apple. Can you phone a friend in the respective country and get them to phone Apple on your behalf?
