My Ipod 30gig is stuck in the "Do Not Disconnect" mode

i plugged it into my macbook pro, and noticed after a while that my ipod never mounted. i looked at the ipod screen and it was in the "do not disconnect" stage. so i waited. then i went to "file" then "sync to my ipod" but the option was grey'ed out. so i restarted my computer. the ipod just stayed in the "do not disconnect" mode as the computer rebooted, and did not mount. none of the ipods buttons do anything. it does not go to sleep.

Argh, mine does that too. I would also really love a solution on this one, so therefor i'm bumping this thread

    This happened to me aswell, but it happened to me when I plugged it into the PC but same problem. what you have to do is move the 'Hold Switch' to put it on hold and then move it back again and then hold both the 'Menu button' and button in the middle of the click wheel. then it will turn off and then come up with the Apple logo and then it will work fine and you can try again. (P.S: If it doesnt show the Apple logo just try pressing any button

  • HT1853 My laptop lost connection with itunes while my ipod was in do not disconnect mode.  My ipod will not respond now and still shows do not disconnect?

    My ipod was connected to my laptop and in the 'Do not Disconnect' mode.  My computer rebooted after security scan and now my iPod is stuck in the 'Do not Disconnect' mode.  The iPod will not turn off, nor will my itunes recognize it is connect.

    Try a hard reset of the iPod.  To do this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    ipod video   Windows XP  

    I'm having exactly the same problem. I connected my iPod (video, 60gb) into my G5iMac to power up the battery, and iMusic didn't recognize it, and now it's completely stuck in the "Do Not Disconnect" mode. I tried to reset it, but it's still stuck. I have it charging via a wall outlet, but it doesn't appear to be charging. It worked fine up until today. Help!

  • The bottom button on my iPod 4g is stuck in the down position.

    The bottom button on my iPod 4g is stuck in the down position.  It does not come up at all so I can't play or exit anything.  Any ideas on how to get this unstuck?

    You can try the suggestions in the previous discussion.  However, since your iPod is still within its warranty period, make sure you do not so something that voids the warranty.  Why not make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store?

    Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:

    - 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.
