My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode and won't turn off, itunes doesn't recognize it - ¿how can I make it work again?
My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode. I responds to nothing. iTunes doesn't recognize it. It doesn't sync. I've tried to restore and got error 1429. Now it just stays in disc mode and won't turn off. I'm keeping it connected to the charger so it doesn't go dead. Is there anything I can do to resurrect my pod?
To get out of disk mode do a iPod Hard Reset.
Toggle the Hold switch till you dont see the red mark.
Press Menu and Center buttons simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.

My NOSY (now ex) husband did something to my ipod touch and it is now disabled. It was dead and I charged it and NOW the sucker won't turn off. When I connect to itunes i see a message that says i have to UNLOCK it with a passcode. I tried to get apple support but they want my serial number. Well...the ipod wont turn on!!! I've had it at least 6 years and have moved and I can't find my paperwork and WHO can read that serial number on the back? I know its kind of outdated (third generation, I believe)but its mine, I love it and it has ALL my music on it.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -

Original iPhone Stuck in Phone Mode and Won't turn off
I can only navigate in the phone mode - dialing out, messages, keypad, favorites, etc. and can't get back to the Home Screen when I push the button. Also, the phone will not turn off - only go into sleep mode when I press that button. When it comes back on, it goes back into Phone mode. Help
Ugh dont even remind me about this issue...I bought my iPhone on a Thursday and by Saturday my iPhone started doing this. I could do nothing but stay in the phone mode, could not back out to home screen and all kinds of drama--eventually to where the phone wouold not even turn on. I took it back to the AT&T store and advised them the iPhone I had purchased 3 days prior and handed it to the sales person and he promptly advised me my iPhone was not turning on. I requested a replacement, as I had only owned the iPhone for less then 3 days. I was informed they would be happy to replace, but I would have to pay a re-stocking fee (40.00, after paying 500.00 for original- less then 3 days prior). I was dangerously close to a heart attack-lol. After several hours in store demanding a new phone, they made a call to the GM of the AT&T store, who happened to be on vacation. GM referred rep to Asst manager of the store; who it turns out was an old high school friend of mine. He exchanged the phone at no cost, which made me happy, but left a horrible taste in my mouth for AT&T. I guarantee if there was another provider, I would have (and maybe still) take my iPhone services somewhere else- as well as my second line of cell phone service for a family member. That was the worse case of cust service ball dropping I think I have even endured. It ranks up there close to my mobile me escapade, which finally was resolved.

classic 120gb stuck on disk mode and cant get it off and tried the reset ! before it went into disk mode it went it had red cross ?
i read on the internet that this is a harddrive fault?
please dont say it is!
also there seems to be loads of this same fault hapening to the exact same model!?
please help
ChazThat's super odd. It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive. I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread. He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

My mom put my ipod 5th gen in the house somewhere and it was turned off. It is connected to the internet in the house. How do i turn it on with the Findmyiphone or something else? It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help! How do i turn it on without finding it because she can't remember where it was.
That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.
Thank you for your replys -

Visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store to get it checked. If they can't fix this, you'll have to pay the Out-Of-Warranty-Service fee to get a new replacement for a reduced price:
Out-of-warranty repair service
If your repair isn’t covered by Apple’s One Year Limited Warranty, AppleCare+, or AppleCare Protection Plan, your iPhone might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. For example, liquid damage isn’t covered by warranty but might be eligible for out-of-warranty service. Some damage isn’t eligible at all, for example if your device has been broken into multiple pieces. See Apple’s Repair Terms and Conditions for complete details.

when i burn videos to a dvd-r disc it works on my macbook but not on a windows/pc or my dvd player. How can i make it work on all the above and not just a mac product?
Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

No one here can help you with that, check Google.

Hello nancarter97,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5. I would be concerned too if my iPhone was stuck in recovery mode and not recognized in iTunes so that you can restore it.
I recommend the following article for the issue you described and specifically this step:
5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.

My ipod only goes to the apple screen and freezes then turns off after about a minute. Is this fixable?
Try a system reset. It's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc. -
My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this?
My iPod is dead and won't charge or connect to the computer. How can I fix this? Before it died, it said I had a full battery whenever I charged it, but as soon as it came off of the charger, the battery level was always under ten per cent.
Sounds like the battery needs to be replaced.

Call Apple Care. You are still under warranty. You also have 14 days from the date of purchase to return your iPod with no questions asked.
Take FULL advantage of your warranty. Posting on a message board should be done as a last resort and if you are out of warranty or Apple Care has expired. -
