My iPod got shampood and now it won't connect to my Mac. Ideas?

The big problem is that ever since the shampoo, the iPod won't recognize the connector cable. It keeps asking for USB cable even though that's what it has. the iPod still plays perfectly and will charge when connected to the computer, it just won't connect the music... HELP!!

Do a search for iPod repair companies. Some of them will give you a quote on what it will cost to repair your ipod. This would probably be cheaper than Apple repairing it.

  • I stupidly upgraded the software to my Iphone 3s and now it won't connect to my Mac which is a PowerPC and the Itunes update is only for Intel Macs so......now what?

    well I stupidly upgraded my Iphone 3s to 6.0.1 and now it isn't compatable with Itunes but I run a PowerPC and the itunes is only for an Intel Mac so.........now what? It's more important for me to have my Iphone communicating with my older Itunes so what older software do I need for my phone since I'm not buying an Intel Mac.My Protools would not like it.

  • MY IPOD GOT WET AND NOW IT WON'T TURN ON! D8

    Help! My iPod was in my bag and my water bottle leaked all over everything and I had not discovered my iPod was wet until I got home. D8

    I've heard a lot of different theories on how to revive water-damaged iPods. You should search the forums--you will most likely get hundreds of similar posts. Methods I can think of off of the top of my head are:
    1. Put in a warm bowl of rice in a warm spot
    2. Put on a sunny windowsill for several hours
    3. (probably don't try unless you're totally desperate) put in a warm oven on a towel with the door open for a very short time
    These are only a few options... if you use the search option you will find many, many more.

  • As I downloaded new software upgrade in my iPod nano 7 th gen and also new iTunes upgrade then all data on my iPod got erased and now when I am trying to sync it again then sync button is disabled on the windows screen . Kindly help

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. Where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

    I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. My pc didn't create a backup before updating software so I can't revert back to ios 4.3.5 from there, where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

    I tried just about everything and finally brought my Ipod touch to the apple store.  The tech installed ios 4.3.5 but still no WIFI.  He recommended a $149 exchange - not really a bad deal with a new battery and 90 day warranty, but I thought I'd try again.
    The "solution" was bizarre.  On YouTube was a fix involving taking the motherboard out and heating the wifi components with a heat gun.
    I did not like that idea, but another involved turning it off, putting it in the freezer for five minutes and restarting.  It worked!  I must admit the fix does not work reliably, so I may still go for the exchange.  Still, I am now convinced that it is a hardware problem.    i remember back in the old days, TV repairmen sprayed a suspected bad resistor with Freon.  The chilled component would work long enough to identify what needed replacement.  Perhaps something similar is happening here.
    For anyone wanting to try this, I found it more convenient to place the back of my ipod on a  frozen cold pack until the wifi is restored.  It seems to happen when condensation forms on the face.  I used a towel to wipe off the moisture so as not to add to the problem.

  • Started to upgrade from Lion got interrupted and now it won't download

    Started to upgrade from Lion got interrupted and now it won't download

    Hello webejamn,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when trying to download and install OS X Mavericks.  It sounds like the download from the Mac App Store for OS X Mavericks was interrupted and didn't complete. 
    I recommend the following step when an Mac App Store download is interrupted:
    If downloading an app is interrupted
    Once an Internet connection is reestablished, your purchased downloads should automatically restart. The Mac App Store may alert you that there was an issue with the download and ask if you'd like to restart the download(s). Confirming will restart all pending downloads. For more information on this topic, see Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads.
    Note: The download time will vary according to the file's size and your Internet connection speed. Refer to this article about iTunes Store purchases for more information about download times for large files.

    Have you tried resetting your device: Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the "Slide to Unlock" screen redisplays, see if your issue is resolved.

  • I reset my ipad 2 and now it won't connect to the internet

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

    iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My ipod battery died and now it won't recharge help!

    My battery was about dead so I left it in the car but the battery died before I got home.  Now it won't turn on, charge or even get recognized by Itunes.  I've tried holding the home and power button but nothing. Any help would be great. Thanks

    Seriously?  If your phone's not working, bring it to Apple for evaluation.

  • I reset my iPod completely, and now it won't connect to computer. What happened?

    Just what the title states. My iPod was messing up so I reset it, and now it will not connect to a computer. I have tried other iPods on my computer and they all connect fine. Why is my iPod the only one doing this?
    Oh and by the way, the only screen that comes up is the "Connect to iTunes Screen" meaning I cannot get on it at all.

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see the iPod.   For recovery mode see:

  • I just updated my iphone 4s with iOS 6 and now it won't connect to wifi!

    I did the update and now it will not connect to wifi.  I have tried reseting, forgetting the network then reconnecting etc...almost everything and it still will not work!!!

    You could unplug your router than plug it back in.  You could turn the iPhone completely off and then back on.
