- as soon as the installation is complete, WinXP always display the same error msg :
« iTunes has had a problem and must close … sorry for… » ;
5. (…)

Hi Martha
Some others in iPod discussions solve theirs troubles :
- by buying and installing 1 Firewire card (6-pin port) + the Apple 6-pin FireWire cable : $ 70 - $ 110 or more for both items (good idea if the problem comes from the USB 2.O port and cable, so with FireWire connection created by Apple you just avoid any USB 2.0 connection. But, if you can quickly tranfer some songs and play them on the iPod... it doesen't sound like 1 USB 2.0 connection to me),
- by connecting iPod on 1 Apple Computer. Know this is not THE solution. But so you can check if the problem comes from
your iPod or/and your USB 2.0 connection and at the end you temporarily can iPod all your songs. If you don't know somebody with an Apple computer, I'm quit sure... if you can go to 1 Apple store and explain this, they will let you check your iPod and USB 2.0 cable, hope so at least.
Since the 9.28 8pm, I just can't install iTunes 5.0.1.4, as soon as the installation process is complete, WinXPsp2 always display the same error msg :
« iTunes has had a problem and must close … sorry for… " ... even brand new files downloaded again and again and .... at Apple.com (http://appldnld.m7z.net)
For me, even if iTunes 5.0.1.4 is already on the market, this iTunes update is definitively not Windows XPsp2 compatible yet.
So, still waiting a working iTunes (n) version truly XPsp2 compatible from Apple/Microsoft people, and quickly because
warranty time is running and I still want to be able to exercise my warranty rights before the end of it.
Good luck

  • Issue with brand new iPod Nano 7g No Phone, can't contact Apple

    Hi everyone,
    I just got my brand new iPod Nano the other day, when I opened it up and took the sticker off, I saw a large scratch down the screen. That was annoying enough but the scratch affects the touchscreen ability and it's very tough to ignore.
    So like a normal person I want to contact Apple to try and resolve this, but I've hit another barrier. I only have one phone, a mobile and that's bust up. No way I can take or recieve calls unless I become psychic as the speaker and mic are broken. So i'm wondering if there's any other way I can contact Apple?
    My nearest Apple store is about a 2 hour drive away as I live in the middle of nowhere, helpfully...
    Totally new to this place so any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    So i'm wondering if there's any other way I can contact Apple?
    Either borrow a cell or a landline phone.  I find it hard to believe no one in your neighborhood, family, school or job have no phone.

  • My brand-new iPod touch (5th Gen) battery takes a very long time to fully charge, even while not in use. Why is this and what should I do?

    Just recently bought a brand-new iPod touch, 5th generation. To be exact, got it two days ago, this past Saturday, on 12/13/2014. Initially, when I first turned it on, it had a fully charge and I didn't need to charge it. I also didn't see anything in the very small and limited start-up guide you receive with it to charge it for a certain amount of time before use, or to use it until the battery dies, then charge all the way, like a lot of electronic devices have you do when you first purchase them.
    So I was assuming I didn't need to do anything like that. First question, should I have charged it for a period of time before use? Should I have used it until the battery died, then plugged it in and charged it fully before use? Or is none of this necessary initially and iPod batteries are good to go from the start?
    Please excuse me if this is an obvious question, as this is my first ever iPod. Anyways,like I said, nothing in the "instructions" said anything about that, so I didn't do it, I just used it until it got below 20% battery left, then I plugged it in.
    Now for the battery itself, it takes literally a day or so to fully charge, even while not in use. Even if I use it for a while, turn off the iPod to make sure it shuts off all background data and apps, and then plug it in to charge, it still charges extremely slowly. I've never seen a device take this long to charge. As for the battery life itself, I'd say at full charge it lasts about 4-5 hrs, maybe 6, and then I have to charge it again. Meanwhile it takes around 24 hours, without me using it, to fully charge. If I use it while its charging, the battery decreases faster than it charges, and eventually I'll get the typical "20% battery remaining" message pop up.
    I know it is charging, as the lightning symbol is next to the battery symbol. Specifically, right now, I plugged it in about 1 hr 30 minutes ago, and it has barely gone up. Also, whenever I press the home button to check the battery, I can see it jump down from about 50% to somewhere around 25%-30%. What is that about?
    This is really frustrating, and I'm seriously contemplating either taking it back and trying my luck with a different iPod, or just taking it back and getting my money back. Any help and clarification on this matter would be greatly appreciated, and I'll answer any questions I can to shed more light on this.

    It will take longer to charge the 5G's battery than either the 3G or 4G's battery.
    Not Charge

  • HT1212 my daughter has a brand new ipod touch - never used - she entered a passcode then immediately forgot it and now she has tried to enter one too many times and ipod is locked for 1 hour - she has never synced with itunes HELP

    my daughter has a brand new ipod touch - latest one - she started to input a passcode then didn't finish the process then turned off ipod. she turned it back on and it is asking for a passcode - she doesn't remember what she typed. Ipod is now disabled for one hour. Can we override the disable. How do we reset passcode when we don't klnow the original. It has never been synced to Itunes. I am completely lost.

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.

  • Full automatic Itunes synchronization impossible for a brand new Ipod touch 5th generation

    Hey all,
    I bought a brand new Ipod Touch 5th generation which won't synchronize my whole music library through Itunes (very latest version of the app).
    The ipod runs IOS8 and the mac mini runs Yosemite latest version.
    I already had issue synchronizing music the very 1st day I had the Ipod touch. As a result, went back to the Apple store for changing it for another device, thinking the Ipod was faulty, which Apple accepted and changed my device for a brand new one.
    Since then, still unable to synchronize the full music library through itunes. I performed several full resets both on the mac mini and of the Ipod touch with no success. The synchronization seems to run fully normally with no warning pop up saying it failed or whatsoever and the sync process is very very long. But once done, my Ipod remains empty with no data at all.
    The weird thing is that Photos are fully synchronized with no issue at all.
    I contacted the Apple assistance who argued that my music library might be faulty and have corrupted files in it. So I cleaned it up, suppressing some files I had in double etc.
    BUT still, no success, I had to go through the entire library to sync manually, but even then, I was able to have on the device, only half of the library, i.e. around 25 go. once the ipod display 25 to 30 gb remaining, it won't sync no more files.
    Although I cleaned up the entire library and reset both devices hundreds of times, I have no clue why even manually, I'm completely unable to have my whole library automatically sync.
    I spent hours on the phone with Apple assistance to get some help with no success so far. I even re-installed Itunes completely, still without any result at all.
    I was only able to upload on the Ipod only half of the music library, and there are still 25 to 30 GB space remaining on the ipod and 20GB of music to be uploaded.
    The automatic sync process always fails any time I try to run it, except for the photos, books etc.
    I must say I also have an 160 GB Ipod classic with which I never had any problem so far, and which fully sync my whole library with no issue at all.
    I read on the internet that some other users of IOS8 are accountering the same issue with itunes.
    COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP, I'M DESPERATE, given the price of the Ipod I really do regret I bought something that does not work properly. Quite disappointed

    Yes the system just keep sync as everything is normal, but then no song is actually uploaded to the ipod.
    And the remaining space bar shows the ipod's empty.
    the automated process will just keep sync as if normal and the last step saying 'applying the modifications" just keep going on and never ends.
    I was only able to upload manually half of the albums, all songs comes from different sources; ripped from CD for great part, but also downloaded from the internet from trusted websites.
    All songs play normally through Itunes on the Mac Mini.
    But then when trying to sync the whole library automatically, nothing happens and I only get tags of the different albums, as if there, but actually it won't play none and the Ipod player just keep skipping as if no musical data is there.

  • Brand new iPod Touch is not being recognized by my computer

    Hello,
    I just bought a brand new iPod Touch. I had iTunes installed since this is a replacement to a very old iPod. When I plugged my new iPod Touch to start the very first sync, iTunes crashed and started giving me a Windows 7 error (999). After many frustrated attempts to reinstall iTunes (and a few blue screens in between), I followed a recommendation in one of the postings to delete all the Apple programs in a certain order. It worked and I was able to reinstall iTunes. The problem now? My USB, which at one point kept asking for the software to install the iPod, won´t recognized it anymore. Period. I´ve rebooted several times and whenever I plug my iPod in any of the four USB ports, absoluletely nothing happens, as if nothing had ever been plugged in. I tested the USB with my blackberry and it recognized it. Please help!! Thanks!

    Ok, I just figured out so I´ll post it here in case someone has the same issue. I turned off my iPod while connected to the computer. Afterwards, the "other" connection showed up again in the device manager but this time it stayed there without disappearing and with the exclamation point on. I then proceed with one of the instructions in this posting to install the driver for the apple mobile which then showed up in the USB section of the hardware (it was never there until now). Bingo! I got my iPod Touch to connect for the first time! But seriously, why should it be so hard???? I'm concerned with the number of postings here. It looks as if Apple is selling the hottest toys but not be the best ones in terms of quality...

  • Concerning no wifi connection on Brand New Ipod iOS 4.2.1

    Hello,
    My girlfriend and I have just received our brand new Ipod Touches, mine is 64gig and her's 32gig. Now, her's is having quite the issue with it's wifi connection. We have more than one wifi connection in our neighbourhood, and the passwords to boot - but she can't connect. It says she's connected, until she's actually trying to browse when she is told that there is no connection. I know it's not the routers, because my ipod can connect to all of them, it's just hers doesn't seem to.
    We've also followed the typical walkthrough, reset the wifi, disconnect and reconnect to the different connections, restart the ipod, what not.
    Any ideas?
    Much appreciated,
    Devin Bates

    Try resetting the network connection on her touch - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Connection.

  • Brand new iPod Touch 4g won't sync music from iTunes?

    Every time I plug my iPod into my laptop to add more music I get an error saying iTunes cannot read the contents and I need to restore it. Last week I got a new white iPod Touch 8gb 4g. I had the same problem with my last iPod and when I bought the new one I was hoping I wouldn't anymore but I do. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, restarting my computer, hard rebooting my iPod, turning my iPod off and on, deleting old backups, etc. But still it won't sync correctly. Sometimes it will start the sync, but rush through all the steps without actually syncing anything. So I try to sync again and again to see if it will add anything but it just rushes through all the steps without doing anything. And eventually I get the message saying it cannot be read and needs to be restored. I'm using windows, and my iPod as well as iTunes are both up to date. And I have plenty of space left on my iPod. I've even checked for viruses/threats but there are none on my computer. Even to add one new song I have to restore first. Even though it's a brand new iPod. Any ideas why it won't sync or why iTunes cannot read the contents??? I've been having this problem for awhile. A couple months. With my old iPod and my new one.

    My understnding is that this may be a Windows related problem or sometimes USB problem.   I have the same issue and I know how to correct it, BUT ( and this is a BIG BUT) ... it will happen again and each time it does you will have to fully restore your I-Pod.  Here is my post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18645554#18645554 discussing a potential one time fix, but the problem happens the next time you plug in the I-Pod Touch 4G.

  • Brand new ipod touch suddenly stopped working. please help!

    I was messing around on my brand new ipod touch and it suddenly crashed. it flashed a static-y black and now the screen is bluish white and won't change. I tried holding both the home button and the black button on top of the ipod and neither helped. I even connected it back to my mac book but nothing happened. please help! i've only had it for two days!

    That sounds like a mechanical problem.  You might want to insert and remove the headphone plug several times and see if it fixed the issue.  If it does not, call Apple.  800-275-2273 in the U.S.A. and I think Canada.

  • Brand new Ipod Touch can't been seen in Itunes

    Hi there,
    I hope someone can help as this is driving me mad!
    I have just received a brand new Ipod TOuch but when I connect it to my PC per the installation instructions I get the following message "Itunes could not connect to the Iphone because an invalid response was received from the device"
    I have uninstalled all Apple products from my PC and reinstalled most up to-date version of Itunes.
    I have tried different USB ports.
    I have stopped and re-started the "Apple mobile device" and "Ipod Service" services.
    I have done all of the above in various combinations and re-started my PC numerous times.
    None of this makes any difference.
    The Ipod does not appear in my "My Computer" but when go into device manager on "My Computer" it is listed there so it would appear that my PC can see the Ipod.
    I tried it on another laptop and a brand new installation of Itunes sees the Ipod fine, no problems.
    However I have previously used an Ipod Nano on this PC and this I think is what is causing the problems.
    I have listed below the content of the Itunes Diagnostics file in the hope that that will help. I see that it does mention the Ipod Nano previously used.

    Okay, I had this same issue as soon as I updated to iTune 8.2. Someone gave me an idea about renaming a certain file, which I thought worked for a little bit. The issue came back and I am back in the same boat!
    The bad news is to find a version of iTune 8.1. Uninstall everything and then reinstall iTune 8.1. This has worked for some; however, some have even had to restore their iPod Touchs!
    I am giving in and doing this tonight. I waited as long as I could for the fix. My wife has an iPhone and we have NOT upgraded her iTunes to 8.2 because I have read iPhone users having a similar issue. If her iPhone died, then that would be ultimate deal breaker.

  • Brand new ipod touch 3 frustrating slow wifi

    Dear all, I just opened my brand new iPod Touch 3 yesterday and it connected to my wifi network without any issue.
    But then, the browsing has been a joke. Not a funny one. It is slow like you have no idea. I could load only 4 pages in the whole evening. The google front was one of them.
    I was sitting right next to the router. It didn't help.
    I cannot say I was loosing the connection. Only that loading any page was next to impossible.
    My provider of internet is www.get.no in Norway.

    Update: I previously advised the following quoted manual set up. I thought had solved problem but it returned. I now have found I think the real root of slow iTouch on Airport Wifi Network. Seems wireless telephone is interfering on 2.4 freq. Channel for 2.4 Freq was set on 1. I have now changed to channel 6. I have now being operating Two iTouch at same time for several hours with no freeze and acceptable speed. Anyone else having hang ups, slow operation, etc. would suggest trying channel change on 2.4 Freq., especially if you have wireless tel. in house.
    Brad
    Quote of Maculu manual set up
    You open Airport Utility, click on manual setup, enter your WiFi password, click on wireless tab, click on radio mode drop down box, pick 802.11a/n-802.11b/g instead of automatic, Now click radio channel selection and pick manual, pick any random channel for each of the 2 frequencies.

  • My brand new iPod Touch 4th Generation, just isn't functioning correctly.

    Recently, I bought a brand new iPod 4th gen. Since, it has gone haywire and refuses to function correctly. It is 16 gb and operating on iOS 6.0.1. On many apps, especially games, it can get really laggy at times, for no discernable reason. I have very few apps installed, and a great internet connection, so I can't understand why that would occur. Also, Safari is absolutely useless. When opened, under any circumstances, It goes to a default white screen:
    Then it can do NOTHING else. Upon further inspection, this seems to happen to a couple default apps. Such as:
    -Calendar
    -Maps
    -Mail
      After about 20 seconds of blankness, it then force-closes to the home screen. In addition, Game Center has become a pain in the butt; it just won't leave me alone. Anytime I try to open a game with internet capabilities (ie.Vector,The Sandbox, etc.), it pops up wanting me to sign in, yet it wont work. When I try to sign in, it never works the first time. I have to home-screen, then click the app again to open it up to the same page, before it even shows the keyboard, not to mention, at this screen, the keyboard is horizontal (landscape) while the rest of the screen is vertical (portrait). From this point, signing in does nothing, it will bring up the buffering circle and spin for about 10 minutes, before promptly force closing. I can't get out of that screen either, when it comes up asking for my log in, the cancel button becomes absolutely worthless, it does nothing. I've disabled Game Center's notification and changed it's capabilities, but it STILL comes up when I try to eneter a game. The only way around it is to completely TURN OFF my Wi-Fi. Thus rendering a lot of in-game content worthless. Lastly, sometimes the Game Center opens Safari, but since it doesn't do anything, I have no idea what to do. Home-screening does not work, as less than a second later, Safari opens again, and again, and again. The only way to stop this annoying cycle, is to completely SHUT-OFF my iPod.The iPod is only a little over a week old, and it ****** me off that I already want to put it down the disposal.

  • Are 8.01 projects backward compatible with 8.00?

    Am getting nervous; may need to revert to 8.00 thanks to playback issues  -- dropped frames on clips with third-party plugins. Anybody know if 8.00 reads 8.01 project files?  Assume so, but don't want to assume too much.
