Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it but it dosent show up under devices so i cant sync any music!!the screen on the ipod would usually say "connecting"or"do not disconnect"but it dosent say that anymore!!Ive been trying to fix it for DAYS but i cant find a good enough solution.PLZ HELP!!(p.s. i have a 4th generation nano)

Hey there,
A file or some files may have become corrupt somehow during connecting or disconnecting the unit. Try putting it into Disk Mode and see if that helps. To put it into Disk Mode, hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears. When it does, immediately press and hold the Center an Play/Pause buttons until you see a confirmation that your iPod has been put into Disk Mode.
If you are able to do this, it may be a good idea to restore the iPod to its original settings. Keep in mind that by doing this you are erasing all the music and files from your iPod so make sure they are backed up on your computer somewhere. More on restoring your iPod can be found in the Apple document below.
Hope this helps.

When this happens I need to close down the computer and restart.
Any ideas ?
I've got Mountain Lion running.
I'm on a 13" white MacBook with 8GB RAM installed.
I recently had a 1 TB hard disc installed at the Apple store.

can you preview it? -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
If that works fine and you still have problems boot into safe mode and try again

Have you tried the restart/reset/restore troubleshooting path? That would be the best initial set of steps to take, particularly in a situation like this.

Ipod freezes itunes when I connect it to computer and won't sync

I have a 120GB ipod classic, and I got it not even 3 months ago. It was working fine and now when I connect it to my computer itunes freezes and my ipod doesn't show up on it. However, it does show up under my computer.
Anyways, then I unplug my ipod and a message pops up on the computer that says it couldn't sync my ipod because a required folder is missing. My ipod plays music fine, it just won't connect to itunes!
I know it's not the computer because I connected my ipod to another computer and the same thing happend. Also I connected my old ipod to my computer and that one showed up fine.
I am very frustrated!! Does anyone know how to fix this?

Have you tried doing a reset on the iPod? That may help if its the ipod directly... It may have something where it's not breaking to do the SYNC with the computer
Here's a link to help you with the reset, what ever you do just don't do the "restore" setp.. As this link does the whole 5 r's to help resovle issues...

Has anyone experienced there computer freezing up when useing Photoshop CS4 or SC5

My two computers both freeze up when I am useing Photoshop (working with a large file 82-120 megs with multiple layers, channels and paths) it only ocurred when useing Photoshop. Otherwise the computrs works fine for every day tasks for buseniss and personal use, admittedly, I do not have any other resource intnsive applications other then QuickBooks or maybe a large Excel spreadsheet but I have no problem with these large files. I am not a gamer or I could try a game I hear that they can be resorce intensive.
My first computer is used for personal and business. this computer has a number of programs on it, including Kaspersky internet security but it is not lacking in resorces, It is a Intel based computer, sporting Intel quad core 2.5 GHz CPU. running on a 32 bit Windows 7 operating system, its list of components are 4 gig ram, Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT graphics card (on the Adobe approval list sporting open GL) 4 sata hard drives, 750 watt power supply, Asus P5N-D SLI motherboard, the tower case has 7 fans and the CPU is water cooled.
I run Photoshop CS4 on this unit.
after I experienced this loss of critical files I call the tech support line to see if they could help with recovery of the file and to ask if they had a way to prevent this from occuring again.
They said that I could wave bye bye to the file and the work, additionaly they said if I was working with large files like that, I should be runing a 64 bit system that could utilize additional memory.
I really like working with the large files so I bit the bullet and spent the money for the 2nd computer that I would use as a dedicated Photoshop workstation.
the second system has many of the same components because they have worked admirably. the key difference is as followes. 8gig ram, 64 bit Windows 7 operating system, Photoshop CS5 and the only other software is the drivers for the wacom intos4 tablet. I desided not to install any type of antivirus program because I will not be useing it on the internet except when it needs to connect to Adobe for whatever. my decision not to install antivirus can be reversed but I did not want any questions about it slowing up the computer.
This system with Photoshop CS5, freezes up faster then the CS4 system.
When I say Freezes up what I am referring to is the mouse and keyboard will not respond. Control/alt/delete will not bring up the task manager. Eventually I give up and have to force a shut down by pushing and holding the case start button for about 5 to 8 seconds.
when I restart the system I check the file that I have been working and several times the file that I was working on is corrupted beyond Photoshops ability to open.
I have used the windows 7, on board, memory diagnostics and it claims that all of the memory is fine I have reviewed the event logs and the only critacal errors are about the system being improperly shuting down. I even went to the trouble to click on the link for each error that will take you to Microsofts website and will serch for anything they have about that event and they had no help on the event.
People with mac computers have had a similar problem that had to do with there fonts and plugins, but I do not have a mac and I have not installed any plugins. The CS5 is as it came from the factory and the Mac people kicked me out telling me to get over on my side of the street where the rest of the windows outcast are but that was only after they thought they had there problen solved. Its so funny, but losing these files is not, Please Help

Thanks everyone for jumping in with both feet.
Let me review what I have already done.
(1). I have already witnessed how the wround driver for the tablet will wrack havoc. when I first started the 64 bit version of CS5 it would not recognize any PSD files at all and if you went to the file and right clicked looking for the (open with) dialog box forget-about-it the option for Photoshop was not an option.
I called Adobe tech support and they told me that I was not going to be able to use the Wacom tablet with the 64 bit versionof Photoshop. I found that a little suspicious seeing how Wacom tablets are the most preferred pen tablets for professional illustrators.
I contacted Wacom and they explained that I needed to uninstall the Wacom tablet, reboot the computer, go to the website, download the new 64 bit drivers and then reinstall the tablet. after I did that. Photoshop found all of my files and opened just fine.It was only then that I found out about the freezing proplem with the 64 Bit version.
A number of the helpful people here have tried to advise this to me but I have already be down tha road.
(2). I have the latest drivers for the BFG Nvidia Geforce 9600 Gt, released in April of this year and I had already new that the were necessary for the open GL so this is one of the first things that I tried.
Some one from our cousin Mac's side of the famaly and (Noel just suggested) that I try turning off the open GL. As soon as cousin Mac asked us to try this I did it (Them being famaly and all).
I was able to give it a try on the 32 bit system on Thursday 7/8/2010.
I was able to work on a very large file with a multitude of layers, channels and paths for about 5 hours before if froze. after the reboot I found that the file was fine and retained everything up to my last save.
But this test is only good as circumstantial evidence because the freezes are somwhat random. They mosly happen after I have been working with a large file for quite some time but some times it can happen very quickly, maybe 25 or 30 minutes.
Bye the way I really enjoy the humor, the Mac people are very serious people.
the Mac users are just grouchy because they expect their computers to "just work", and of course they don't.
We PC users have been given no such expecatations. THANKS NOEL
Oh, don't worry about them mean old grumpy PC wanna be Mac peoples. Gota luv it THANKS dec9
and Eight thousand dollar papper weight says it all. THANKS $8000paperweight.
(3) the memory, CPU and mother board can not be ruled out completly, just yet
As for the memory I have used the on board windows 7 diagnostics and it passed. but this is a unreliable test for hevy-resource dependent applications and a load or stress test would need to be done to be confidend.
I have a number of computers with the same kind of ram but after swaping them around I can not say that I have had any lasting results and it is compecated by experiences like what happened to me after turning off the open GL. What if I had of only worked for 4 hours? I would of thought that the problem was solved thats what would of happened
Do any of you work with files like I have been talking about? and if so do you experience any problems?
The motherboard can not be rulled out by any tests that I know of other then process of elimination which is at the heart of all sound diagnostics.
I downloaded a utility that is helpful called (Cupid Z) that gives real time monitoring and idenification of components.All the voltages seem fine.A.
I hope I will be able to up load the screen shots so you all can have a look see.
The CPH is more than likely not the problem.
I do have the option to install Photoshop on a third computer that has most of the same components but has a different Intel CPU. this would rull out any compatability issues (CPU with the Board) but if that were the case I dought that every other progrem under the sun works fine except Photoshop.
dec9, I did delete the prefs on the 32bit system but I have not had time to test the operation of Photoshop as of yet.
Lastly I will try to upload the screen shots of (Cupid Z) you will see that the latencys and the frequency are correct. Under the SPDscreen the plausible timinigs for verious common frequencies are given,, all seem to be with in range. The lantency are inside the spec.given by Corsair;s website
Asus provides a utility that allows you to monitor Temptures and voltages and I hope to send you a screen shot of this and you can see that they all are correct.
I would like to send the event log but I am not sure how to do that if someone could give me the 411 on how to do this I will send them to you I have saved the errors in several file formats but I cant see how you cold read them on this little page Thanks again POBOX119 signing off

Computer freezing while trying to connect to usb by pc card on laptop

Hi, im trying to help a friend out who has problems with his ipod. he has a compaq laptop presario 2108us. he only has 2 usb slots in the back which are broken. the broken one somtimes works as far as connecting the ipod to the computer, but does not charge it. when it does connect, it transfers files fine while at the same time, doesnt charge. so to try to fix his usb problem, i bought the pc card with 2 usb. his laptop is capable of card slot type 1,2,and 3, and compatible with 16 bits. with the card, it works fine with a jumpdrive, recognizes everything. when i try to connect the ipod to it, it shows up in my computer, but not itunes, and after a couple minutes the computer totally freezes, mouse and everything, shortly after i manually dissconnect my ipod, the computer responds like normal again. we've tried 2 different brands of cards, ive done all the microsoft updates. and the pc card does work with the ipod withanother laptop, so its the computer. although i think that a system recovery might help, i just wanted to get some more information before i take that step, thanks.

Your Mac must be on Lion (10.7) to run iCloud. Apple had to change the operating system to fully support it. Nevertheless, it is possible to get emails from iCloud without having Lion. Please tell me if this interests you.
Anyways, here is the link to buy Lion (30 dollars, totally worth the upgrade ): http://itunes.apple.com/be/app/os-x-lion/id444303913?mt=12

Safari slows down/freezes completely when streaming video

I do not usually have this problem, and it is not with every site. Certain sites with embedded video content (YouTube, Google Video, etc.) do not have this problem. This problem only occurs when I attempt to stream from a video link.
This is how the scenario goes almost every time:
I click the link, Safari goes to a blank page with the QuickTime symbol in the middle. Soon after (5-15 seconds), the mouse beachball occurs and Safari basically freezes. If it does not freeze, it will lock up for about 10 minutes, the fans in my Mac Mini will go wild (spinning abnormally fast as if attempting to process a very, very large app or task. It is also quite loud for any type of computer or process. This problem also occurs when Safari freezes completely) and will eventually cause my computer to lock up entirely. I have had this problem for about 5 months now, and have looked at the forums to try and solve this problem numerous times (there is no Rosetta check box on my version of Safari btw, so I could not attempt that fix; I deleted my QT plugin and restarted Safari; I attempted the various fixes with QT in System Pref and MIME pref). I would appreciate if none of those answers would be listed.
Please, if anyone has any clue how this problem works and how to fix it, let me know. This has been plaguing my computer for far too long.

I did not make myself clear enough: the link does not open a new page, but rather in the same page as the original site. In other words, the video opens and plays in Safari in the same page. I do have a program, Flip4Mac, that deals with video, but I do not believe it affects QT movies because it apparently only deals with .wmv files and not .mpeg or .mpg files. My QT is also Pro, by the way.
When I stream the movies (if this is considered streaming), I let them download fully in Safari before playing them. I know when the video is beginning to load because a preview (screenshot, per say) of the beginning of the video appears and the QT menu (status bar, play/pause buttons, etc.) appears around the video. Unfortunately, Safari usually never gets to that point and locks up before the video even begins to load.
Also, when I adjusted the MIME settings, I messed around with the video, miscellaneous, and streaming tabs. I attempted to try each change with a restarted Safari with no luck. Are there any other MIME settings I should be looking at? If not, how else could I attempt to fix this problem? I have tried downloading the video, and it works from there, but it takes about 10 min. to download when it takes only about 30 seconds to stream/download in Safari. Thus, I would prefer it working in Safari, not only for convenience, but because I don't like problems going unsolved on my computer. Thanks to all so far for giving advice, at least.

Computer turns off when I connect my ipod

When i connect my 4th generation ipod to my windows xp computer, the pc shuts down and when i disconnect the ipod the pc automatically turns back on again. I cant charge the ipod either. Does anyone know why this is happening and/or how i can solve this issue?
Also, for a few days before that problem began, when i connected the ipod to the PC it said the usb device was not recognised.
Thanks in advance

hmmmmm.
let's see if there's a blue screen lurking behind the display problem.
1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.
now plug the ipod in. do you get a blue screen? if so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
if the blue screen mentions a specific file, let us know what that is called too. (exact spelling, please.)

When I connected my iPod photo to my XP

I just bought a new iPod 20G photo, I can connect it to my powerbook G4, and it works well. but when I connected it to labtop PC, the pc can recognize it and display it as an external disk. I click the disk, there is a popup window, and said I need to format it. how to solve it? I don't know my ipod is .mac or .pc. should i format it in xp before I can use it as an external hard disk in windows? thanks for your help.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Since you have already connected the iPod to a Powerbook, your iPod is currently in Mac format. You need to run the iPod software updater on your PC to restore the iPod to Windows format before you can use it under Windows.
