My ipod classic skips in the car via USB, PLEASE HELP!
When i connect my Ipod classic via USB in my car it skips tiny amounts during songs. It plays fine other wise, throught the headphone hole is fine. I have tried a new cable, It has the latest software, I have looked at other forums where they say make all the tracks the same bitrate and stuff like that but im sure thats not the problem as it happens on all tracks and the bitrates of my collection vary as thay are all from differnent sources. Any body have any ideas? This is starting to drive me crazy!
Never mind. I finally got it to reset. I guess 5th times a charm.

IPod justs skips over songs??? PLEASE HELP
When I try playing songs on my iPod it just skips over them. Some play but most of them just skip. Any answers?? Please help
In my case, the new 5G ipod was skipping virtually all the songs I had previously added from my own CD collection, but playing all others like mp3 files from CD-R or files downloaded from web, or itunes store (my old 3G had no problem playing them all). After much futzing around I found I could fix the skipping by slightly altering the info file on each of the affected songs. The easiest way to do this was on itunes choose edit--select all--right click on any song--choose "get info"--choose info tab--then insert a period or a dash or some other unobtrusive symbol in the comments section. You should see a green check mark appear next to the info section. Click OK.
This symbol will now be added to every song's comments. But it cured my problem 100%. -
IPod touch failed set-up via USB - please help?
NB - this is not related to my Mac computer. I am connecting an iPod touch 4th generation to a Windows machine running XP (SP3).
The iPod is new and I can't get it to set up via USB connection to computer running iTunes (I have mobile broadband, and it isn't a wireless connection). I have tried the minimum, older version of iTunes and the most up-to-date version.
On connection, both the iPod and iTunes acknowledge each other and the iPod charges. It says "connected to iTunes", but does nothing further. Once the screen saver blanks the screen, it simply shows "connect to iTunes" again, clearly part of the set-up process, when I re-activate the screen.
In iTunes, the iPod Touch comes up under "Devices" at the left-hand side of the iTunes display, but I can't click on it to reveal anything about the iPod - nothing happens. At the same time, a progress bar appears at the tope of hte window saying, "accessing iTunes store" (I'm assuming this must be part of the set-up process?!), but it never completes. Sometimes, I get an error message telling me I have no active internet connection (the connection IS active, but I have also emailed my service provider in case this is relevent), but mostly it just hangs - in short, I can't do anything.
I can't tell you which version of the iOS the iPod is running, because - you've guessed it - it will only run its set-up procedure, and that's not completing, so I can't find out anything about it...
So disappointed, and very dispirited after spending days on this and getting nowhere. Apple has not responded to a service request thus far.
Desperate to get this sorted out, because the whole point of finally getting an iPod (which everyone told me would be so simple to set up and use) is because I'm doing a really big charity walk in a couple of weeks - that, and the training walks, are really long (next one, tomorrow, is seven hours), and doing them without music is soul-destroying.
If you can help, I'd be grateful beyond words.
Thanks for reading,
Sheri.Why do Apple not respond to correctly initiated support requests?
This is taking weeks to fix on my own - that is *crazy* in this day and age. Here is an update. Sorry it's long, but it's in case it helps anyone else. I tried *everything*.
What did it in the end was a tiny - REALLY tiny - thing, but I suspect it wouldn't have worked if not in combination with several other things.
It's a setting in internet explorer, which I use rarely if ever, but a friend (i.e. a stroke of luck that he was around) pointed out that iTunes uses it in the background to work properly, and it's a security setting in the "Advanced" tab of the "Internet options" bit of IE. You need to UNtick the box for "Check server's certificate revocation". Which suggests that, before doing this, iTunes was going into an endless loop of checking. Not sure about that, but anyway - it worked in terms of getting the oPod recognised and set up (but see later in the post for the current situation). BUT... before that, I'd had to:-
1. via my firewall, open two ports (80 and 443) needed by iTunes (I think this was key as well, actually - why on earth doesn't this sort of support come with the kit?)
2. uninstall latest iTunes and revert to a previous version (may or may not have been necessary, but seemed logical especially as the iPod's iOS wouldn't be up-to-date) - that needed doing twice, as the first version I tried was *too* early for a 4th generation touch
3. flush the resolver cache several times, and various other command-line actions
4. try all connecting and communicating in different orders (e.g. trying to authenticate iTunes *first*, before connecting iPod) - but now I've seen the set-up process once through in its entirety, it's become *so* obvious that none of that was working, so it's partly my inexperience with iPods which made it take so long to find the solution
5. try to set it up via the iTunes website instead (fail!)
6. test secure site (https) access and inputting various server addresses to see if my firewall or mobile broadband provider was blocking them
7. attempt connection with various parts of virus protection and firewall disabled, and even disable the entire firewall
Not to mention endless emails and discussion forum contributions, reading and tweaking, all the re-boots...
CURRENT SITUATION
Lots of aspects working, but as soon as I ask the iPod to do anything internet related (use Safari, access App Store, etc - or even just sign in), it returns the message, "Cannot connect to iTunes store" - despite being connected by a cable to a computer which IS connected to the internet and IS running iTunes, IS accessing the store, HAS synced with and updated the iPod...
Absolutely NOTHING in Apple "support" discussions/documents makes any difference, and is almost exclusively aimed at those connecting wirelessly anyway (so lots of stuff about routers, DNS settings, etc.); wireless is not an option oopen to me.
Unbelievable.
Any suggestions which don't just point me to an Apple support document would be very welcome, because I think I have read them all... -

Ipod Touch Stuck on the Apple reboot screen, please help!
Ok, So I was using my ipod touch. Actually I was downloading something as well as deleting some pictures of my ipod.
Eventually it froze up so I had to put it on reboot mode. So after about half an hour I started to notice that it had lasted way longer than usual, however I let it continue for another hour until the battery ran out. Even after the battery ran out and I plugged it into my computer it stays on the apple screen and therefore my iTunes refuses to recognize my iPod.
What can I Do?
P.S.
At times it acts like it is ab out to finally fix itself yet it just goes to black and then back to the apple screen.
I even left it charging all night and it was still in the same screeen. The only time it changes is to show me that it is out of battery
Message was edited by: whowillsaveyouI have that exact same problem! However in my case I was trying to update my apps at my friends' house and suddenly my ipod touch rebooted and now I can't touch it because it reboots every time it goes to the 'unlock' page. Please if anyone can help..please please help.

Please help!
Hi,
My thought is to check the current IP of the server, as your smb.conf has the line interfaces = 192.168.1.109 which means samba will only listen on that interface for requests. If the IP of the server has changed, that would explain why samba isn't working. -
My ipod classic skips in the middle of a song. Any ideas of what I can do?
It's a 80 GB Classic and when I play certain songs (Jeff Beck) it skips. I have only used 11.9 GB.
If it's a legitimately unlocked iPhone, you can use it on AT&T or T-Mobile if you like. You can not bring your own iPhone to any CDMA carrier (Verizon, Sprint, etc).
If it was originally sold in the Middle East, Facetime is permanently disabled. -

L7680 Can't connect via Network works fine direct connected via USB Please Help!
Greetings All,
I have an HP L7680 that has been having this same problem since I purchased it and the only cure that has ever worked is to completley reload Windows XP and start over which I am very tired of reloading XP to resolve a printer problem.
This has been posted by several other people but I don't see where anyone has posted a fix.
When I first install the printer everything usualy works fine and it runs fine for a few mionths. Then the first indicatrion of a problem is the scanner quits working. Then when I try to reinstall the software the printer does not show up. I read and tried every solution and have spent nuerous hours with HP support to no avail.
The printer works fine direct connected via a USB cable and it works fine with two other computers on the same network. One of the other computers has the exact same OS and is the same HP model laptop.
I don't think the uninstall is completley removing all the files or reinstalling everything fresh when I reload. I have tried the Level 1 through 4 uninstall utility posted on HP's site and have tried all sugestions posted in this forum.
Below is a better rundown of the problem.
When the Scan function is called, a "Scanning" window appears, and hangs
I have an HP Laptop with XP32 Bit software
Once the scanning window appears it stays there forever
Only way to clear scanning page is to terminate hpoews01.exe with Task Manager
Scanner does not show up in Paint or Photoshop ect.
Web Scan Does work and printer shows up using IP address.
Scanner shows up fine on a web page
HP support in India has been no help and now my printer is out of warranty so even less help
Thank you,
DaveI had a similar problem with my OfficeJet L7680 and here's how I fixed it.
18APR10 - from Dan
I lost my L7680 network link (using CAT5 from printer to router) and could not print to it over the network. However, I could print from a PC with a USB cable directly to the printer, but there are currently three PCs connected wireless to the network. I think I have a viable solution for anyone with the same problem and is not related to the operating system of the PCs.
Originally, I went to the HP site and downloaded the program for the L7680, Critical Update to Enhance Reliability of Network and USB Connectivity and Improve System Responsive.... This worked wonders until my modem and/or router went down. I could see ink levels from my PC, scan, print, and so on. Then I somehow lost my network connection again. When I checked the network settings on the L7680 printer panel (Setup, 5 - Network, 1 - View Network Settings, 2 - Display Wired Settings), I noticed a different IP address than the original 192.168.1.100. Once I figured out how to reset the printer to that one, it connected and worked as it should.
Here's how to reset it: 1. Power down all devices (wired and wireless) to the router (I even disconnected the printer power cord and CAT5 cable at the printer); 2. Power down the modem and router - wait a minute or so before powering back up; 3. Power up the modem and give it a minute or so to go through system checks, which will normally acquire a new IP address from your ISP; 4. Power up the router and let it go through its system checks; 5. Connect the CAT5 cable from the printer to the router and power it up before you power up and connect any other computers. This should assign the printer the first IP address from the router, which should be 192.168.1.100. Once the printer goes through its start-up checks, you can check its assigned IP address from its panel. 6. Power up any other PCs or devices to the router. They should be assigned successive IP address numbers from the router. You can check these using a browser in the PC after typing in 192.168.1.1, logging in to the router, and checking the appropriate place in the router driver/software displayed in the browser. I was not able to reassign IP addresses in my router's driver/software to individual devices, but this method did the trick. I did not try to change the IP address of the printer from its panel to match what had been inadvertently reassigned to it. That might be another option to synchronize the printer and router with the same IP address. If the printer loses its connection again, you'll have to synchronize what the printer has with what the router shows. This worked for me. -
i have ipod classic,80gb,i cant restorit via itunes and when i click restore i see the error1439 plz help me.is there any software to reset it
Hello adifromba
Try putting your iPod Classic into Disk Mode to force a restore within iTunes to get it to show up. The steps to do that are within the first article below, I have also provided a second article for further troubleshooting if it continues to not show up.

Trying to restore 80GB iPod Classic back to the factory settings.
I am using Windows Vista Home Premium, and need to restore 80GB iPod Classic back to the factory settings, due to it being corrupt and the device doesn’t show up in iTunes 10 or on my computer. I've done the 5 R's twice and I am still seeing a box pop up on my computer when I connect the device that says:
“Do you want to scan and fix (F)?”
It gives me the following two options:
1. Scan and Fix (recommended)
2. Continue without Scanning,
Option #1 says, “Unable to perform the scan because Windows cannot access the disk.
Option #2 does nothing.
When starting my computer with the device connected a black screen says:
Checking File System on F:
The type of file system is FAT32.
One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue.
Windows will now check the disk.

My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work. It looks like it is working but doesn't. I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results. I updated the last 8.0.2. It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call. This is happening on both cars.
Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.

I have an Ipod classic which was the original device connected to Itunes.
The right way to consolidate your music is to copy it from one computer to another. You can copy music from an iPod classic though:
How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer:

When the music is all in the same library, sync the Touch.
You will still need to authorize your computer to play purchased music. For that, use the Apple ID that was used to purchase it. -
