My ipod disconects after updates, but I want to use it for data
Hi there!
I'm not sure how to make my ipod stay connected so that I can load data files onto it after it is done updating music files. Any tips?
Thanks!

Go into Settings and check 'Enable Disk Mode'.

Ipod Formatted to Windows but I want to use Mac!
I know you should be able to use an ipod formatted to windows on a Mac, but I can't. I have itunes 7 and it won't let me put music on my ipod says software is too old.
I've been trying to update the software but everything says you can't unless you have a mac formatted ipod! I'm so confused. I never had this prob with my old ipod. Help.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)This is looking like a common problem that has a (fairly) simple solution as long as you have access to another Mac. If not, you may have to do a "clean" install of the OS.
The problem is a corrupted file (at least on Macs with the Power PC processor, id est, not an Intel one) by the name of iPodDriver.kext which resides in the Extensions folder of the Library folder of System folder (not the System Folder, this is an important distinction) which you will see by double clicking on the icon of your hard disk on the desktop.
Drag this file to the trash and delete it (empty the trash).
The idea is that you find a Mac that is happy to mount your iPod and display the update and restore buttons correctly (as well as the full range of tabs and other visual clues, such as a non-generic icon of your iPod).
Then copy the aforementioned iPodDriver.kext to a USB stick, iPod, CD, DVD, whatever from the "good" Mac.
Reverse process to put it on your Mac.
Shut down "your" Mac.
Restart "your" Mac and open iTunes, connect your iPod and, at least in my experience, it will work and provide you with correctly rendered iPod.
Apple used to recognise this problem, but seem to feel that the problem now no longer exists since the introduction of iTunes 7.1.1, however this appears to be arrant nonsense as it keeps cropping up as a problem on these forums (including in iPods and Macs running the most up to date software).
I feel it is also associated with the USB connection itself (for a longer explanation of why I believe this to be so http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=915410&tstart=0 ).
I hope that some of the above helps. -
I tried to change this current email to another email address... with no luck... then I trashed the old email... and downloaded to set up another email address... with no luck... it kept going back to the old...
Please assist..'''File|New|Existing Mail Account'''
No menu? Press alt.
Or right-click an existing account, select '''Settings''', and in the window that pops up, click '''Account Actions''' at the bottom, then '''Add Mail Account'''.
Or press the button with three horizontal lines, hover the cursor over '''New Message''' (yes, really!) and select '''Existing Mail Account''' from the pop-up menu.
Changing one account to another is rarely successful. Always better to add an account rather than modify an old one. That's how Thunderbird is designed to work. -
I have an iPhone 4S that I purchased new from Verizon back in January 2012. I've started to notice that the 3G data coverage appears and disappears according to whether or not I'm actually using the data. For instance: When the phone is stationary and not using the data, it indicates that I have 3G data coverage. When I click on an app like Netflix (without moving the phone from it's stationary position), data coverage either immediately or soon thereafter switches to a 2G data coverage connection (indicated with an "o" for Verizon). Has anyone else had this same problem? I can't say that this happens everywhere, but in particular, it happens at my work every single time I would like to be able to watch episodes of tv shows on my lunch break.
Yeah I'll need to call and ask because it's very possible that the tower is "congested" as I work in a large city. Hardly seems fair that I would get a diminished data speeds due to congestion of a large city that Verizon indicates it has full coverage on all of their "data coverage" maps. I may have made a different carrier choice had I known that this was going to happen. I wonder if this happens with their 4G towers as well...

I had used Iphone4 to update to ios 7.0.4(11B554a) but after update whenever I want to create new contact, I can't type in the word because the keypad don't appear, what should I do? Can I uninstall the update of ios 7.0.4?
You cannot uninstall the update. Apple does not support downgrading. What troubleshooting have you done? Start with a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. Are you syncing contacts with iCloud?

Hi, I've just upgraded to an Iphone 4s but still want to use my Ipod. Can you have music and apps on both and if so how do you keep them updated? Is there a step by step guide anywhere? Thanks
"Can you have music and apps on both "
Yes.
"how do you keep them updated?"
Not sure what you mean.
"Is there a step by step guide anywhere? "
Guide for what?
Sync each of them as always. There is no need to do anything, just sync them to your computer. -

my ipod needs an update but i don't have internet service on my computer i was wondering is it posible to send the update to the email to update the ipod system through Wi-Fi?
If your iPod touch is already running iOS 5 then you should be able to upgrade to iOS 5.0.1 on the device with a Wi-Fi connection.

I have just restored my ipod touch after being disabled. Now it is asking for the passcode? I still cant remember the passcode. How do I go past this?
You'll have connect in recovery mode and set it up "as new ipod" http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync 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 and iPod touch software.
If the issue continues after updating and restoring your device, refer to this document.

After updation IOS5...face using some of the apps in my iphone
After updation IOS5...face using some of the apps in my iphone...sometimes apps clsed automatically...when try to double click home button...its hanged for several minute...sometimes phone got hanged....
I'm going to answer myself this posting since I had a chat with one of the Apple support person and that person resolved my problem. Basically in iTunes I clicked on the iTunes Store and on the right side of the iTunes, it shows the "Quick Links", so I clicked there and I went to "Purchased" and I downloaded "All" my apps and that pretty much fixed my problem with the exception that, I had to manually download from my own phone some apps but once I had all my apps updated and my phone configured in the way I wanted, I performed another "sync" and no more error messages. I'm posting this in case someone else have the same problem.

after upgrading to ios 8.1.1 my ipad 4 camera doesnt work i just got blank screen, but i still can use it for facetime, i supposed after upgrading to ios 8.1.2 it will fix but it doesnt work. i cannot restore to ios 7. hopefully, any suggestion to correct it? thank you
Hello pichastos,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot this issue where your camera is displaying a black screen, please follow the information outlined below.
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Take care,
Alex H. -
All my contacts use iPhones but one doesn't use iMessage because it uses data. I want to use iMessage for other contacts but i have to turn off for just one contact. Can I turn iMessage off for just one contact?
You need to delete here conversation and start another one using her phone number and not her Apple ID. You cannot delete iMessage, you can disable it. If the Apple server still sees her iPod with iMessage on and using her Apple ID, then it will continue to appear to your phone that she has iMessage. She needs to take a look at this support document about permanently disabling iMessage for her account. Can’t receive text messages on a non-Apple phone
