Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Flah player is not working and ive tried everything

Ok, so i have installed the latest flash player but its still not working on sites likes e4.com/skins, the videos there will not play. This is weird because ive watched videos on the site before.
Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the app adobe gives u to completely remove it but nothing is working. Ive checked that the flash player has installed properly by checking on the adobe website and everything is working fine. The add ons are all enabled and so on.
The video on the website loads with a black screen where the video should be but nothing happens.
This is getting very annoying, help would be nice.
I am on windows vista and im using internet explorer 8. The videos also dont work on safari or firefox even though i have got flash player for those browsers. Ive tried scanning my computer to see if i have any virusis but bit defender says im clean.

In view and manage add ons these two were the only two there,

Hi, Using IE find "View and manage your internet explorer add-ons">all add-ons. Look for Shockwave Flash Object...
ActiveX Control....Flash10d.ocx and ensure that it is enabled.
In FF, look for SWF vs 10.0.42.34 and ensure that it is enabled.
Go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash. Open the Flash folder and post back every entry that is listed there.
In Programs and Features post back the Java entries with version #'s and while you are there just note that Flash Player 10 ActiveX is listed.
If you have any questions or need info to obtain the Flash folder info, just post back.
Thanks,

My iPad screen is black and not responding, I've tried everything on the help page, but can't restore or backup as it has a passcode. how do i disable if i can't turn it on? thanks

My ipad screen is blank, ive tried to do the suggested help pages, of back up and restore, but the ipad has a passcode, which i cant type in a the screen is black. how do i overide?
thanks liz

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

Possible Solution to Frozen iPod, iTunes not responding and sad folder

There may be hope for frozen iPods, unresponsive iTunes and sad folders. This solution is totally anecdotal at this point as it only has worked on my iPod. However, try it you got nothing to lose. Our iPods broken right? It's a $300 paper weight right?
History
My iPod 4G 20GB started skipping songs then rebooted and gave me the sad folder. I reset and everything went downhill from there. I would:
- not be recognized in My Computer
-when I did get a drive on My Computer it would lock up My Computer
-reboot and either give me sad folder or Menu with no songs
-refuse to be updated
-be seen in Device Manager as ipod both with Firewire and USB connections
I read through the many threads here and tried all Apple's Solutions to no avail. I even called and they told me, very nicely and free of charge, that I would have to send it in and because the repair price was such to "look at the new models to see which one I wold like". I was totally bummed. I went and bought an new Nano 4GB (with warranty this time) swearing I would never buy another with a HDD again until they became more reliable. I even tried the smack it to get the disk head unstuck method. I figure my iPod was a paper weight at this point so what the ****.(Oddly this method works rather well with all sorts of broken electronics)
Solution
Then I cam across this special Diganostics Mode that you can get to by resetting and then while the Apple is showing pressing the Select and backwards keys simultaneously. It bring up and weird Diagnostic utility witha a abunch of tests. Here is what I did
- I tried the 5in1 test and got and error on Firewire.
- I did the HDD R/W and surprisingly it passed.
- I went on to the HDD scan. This supposedly tkaes acouple of minute so I waited. I think 4-5 dots appeared then nothing. The iPod started to get hot. THe disk was spinning away. After a while the battery got very low. THis test chews up the battery. So I escaped out by resetting and went to connect it to a power source.
My USB was dangling out of my computer and I was too lazy to get the Firewire AC adapter thing going so I connected expecting the whole lockup thing with iTunes. Surprise. IT was recognized immediately and has been working like a champ. So go figure.
iPod 4G 20GB Windows XP
Details on Diag mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/index.shtml
hp a330n Windows XP

My ipod only gets the sad logo and whenever I try to start it up I can hear the hard drive trying to start and then failing and it does so like 3 or 4 times. After I read your post I wanted to try that diagnostic thing but I can't get it into that mode. How long should I have to hold select and back? After I reset the ipod, it goes to the sad face, the hard drive seems to fail a few times and then the screen goes blank and stays like that for as long as I hold those buttons. I'm so sick and tired of dealing with a broken ipod but I really want to get this thing working again so I can never buy another Apple product again. Thanks.

"did not respond"-i've tried everything

I have been spending the last 2 weeks trying to get the AV to work to no avail. I've spent over 40 hours of my time. As a first time Apple user, I wish I had stayed with XP and saved myself $2500 and lot's of frustration.
How can Apple market this software? There are hundreds of people on this forum experiencing the same problem.
I have Netgeat WGT624v3 connected to a Westell DSL modem in bridge mode and Verizon was my ISP. At home I can only connect to the Apple test buddies.
I have been able to connect from my office and from a friends house, both of which use a different ISP.
My router supports UPnP and it's enabled. I've tried all combinations of settings (portforwarding, disabling SIP firewall, DMZ, turning UPnP on/off several times).
I've added the iChat ports to the OS X firewall, I've set the Quicktime streaming speed to the correct setting. I have my Airport TCP/IP settings set to manual.
I have tried connecting directly to the modem last week and had no luck. That and the fact that everything worked when I connected from work or a friend's made it seemed like Verizon was the problem.
So I switched to DSL Extreme, which was activated today. I've now spent 4 hours trying everything again.
I tried connecting directly to the modem (bypassing the Netgear router) once again and was surprised to get it to work. So now it seems like the router is the problem
I went back and retried everything with the router again but can't get iChat to connect to anything but Apple. When I take the router out of the chain, iChat works fine.
I don't know what else I can do except to return the router and try another one. I'm on hold for the past hour trying to get to Netgear support. I'm a few days past my 30-day return period with Best Buy so I don't know how difficult it will be to return it.

Best Buy let me return my Netgear wireless router (WGT624v3) without a problem.
I had been looking at Apple document 93333, which lists compatible routers for iChat. Best Buy didn't have the Belkin F5D5231-4 but they did have the F5D7231-4 and I figured since it's only off by one number (5 vs. 7) and Belkin seems to be pretty Apple friendly, I'd give it a shot.
Took it home and finally, after 2 weeks and 40+ hours, I got iChat AV to work from my house while on my wireless router. Here are the settings I used:
1. Open the ports on the OS X firewall as indicated in Apple document 93280. I named mine iChat AV.
2. Set System Preferences/Quicktime/Streaming to the maximum download speed of my ISP. I did not use the default Automatic setting.
3. Set System Preferences/Network/Airport TCI/IP settings to Manually as indicated at www.portforward.com.
4. Although the portforward.com instructions for this Belkin for iChat instructs to do the portforwarding thing, this step is not necessary since the Belkin supports UPnP. However it comes with UPnP defaulted to Disable. So you need to go into the router settings and set UPnP to Enable.
5. After this, I was able to AV chat with Ralph and Tony. Thanks to both of you for your admirable support on this forum.
Do not use a Netgear WGT624v3 router. I spent two weeks trying to get it to work and went so far as to switch ISPs only to find the router was the problem. The Belkin F5D5231-4 at Best Buy is actually $10 cheaper and it will save you countless hours of frustration.

My screen will not respond and i tried resetting, still doesnt work.

The screen is simply unresponsive, Siri operates and hears me if I hold down the home button. I tried a hard reset many times. I cannot turn off my iPhone 4s because you have to slide it off. I receive not ifications.. Everything, excluding the screen's resonsiveness, seems to bein good condition. So what is wrong? Did it come in contact with water, or is just having a technical issue? I put it in rice, just in case.

Hey TOR77,
I took a quick look at the troubleshooting touchscreen response document, and found the following resolution for your iPhone 4S:
Resolution
If your device is experiencing any of the symptoms listed above, try the following steps:
Restart your device
Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see theService FAQ for your product.

IPod Touch Not Recognized in iTunes - Tried Everything

I recently purchased a new iPod Touch, then upgraded my MacBook from OS 10.4 to OS 10.5.6, with iTunes 8.0.2. Now the iPod Touch is not recognized in the iTunes sidebar. I've read the forum postings and the Apple support documents about this. I've recharged the iPod Touch battery, connected it to a different USB port, turned it off and on again, reset the settings, restarted the computer--all several times. Still, the iPod Touch does not show up in iTunes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, Welcome to discussions.
I noticed you said you updated from 10.4 to 10.5.6 with iTunes 8.0.2
I agree with Deggie and trying the article posted. But also one of the other things you can try before that article. Is you can delete the iTunes Application from the Application folder, Empty trash, restart the Mac, and then download and install latest version of iTunes. If the article below does not assist ensure you also use the article Deggie posted as it does assist with the Apple Mobile Device service.

My Ipod touch wont work and ive tried everything!!

Please help! My ipod touch (8gb) just stopped working one day and I think it had something to do with being Jailbroken and having less then 20% of battery, But now it wont work and ive let it charge for 2 days straight, Ive tried plugging it into the computer - Nothing, Ive tried holding down the sleep and home button - Still nothing! please help, i dont want to get a new one because this one has absolutly Everything on it.
Also, my iphone comes up with No wifi and its all grey but my bluetooth is fine...and ive restored it and everything...help on that too?

Your iPod.
When you held both Sleep & Home Button, did you hold for more than 10secs until you see Apple logo?
If that still does not work
try this.....
1. Plug into a power source
2. Hold down the power button(Sleep button) for about 5 seconds
3. After 5 seconds of holding down the power button, hold down the home button while still holding down the power buttom (so now you are holding them both down) for about 5 seconds.
4. After 5 seconds of holding them both down, let go of the power button - but still keep holding down the home button - hold the home buttom alone for about 5 seconds.
You should then see the apple icon on the screen. be patient. after about 5 seconds of the apple icon on the screen, the ipod should turn on.

FF not responding I have tried everything.

I have tried clean install and disable of addons .I even had AT&T connect tech try to fix the problem.I hope you can help.
Thanks

Hello joejoe186, any luck if you boot the computer in [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-hk/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows Safe mode with network support] (press F8 on the boot screen) ?
(If works in Windows Safe mode then probably you have problem with other software, like security software or maybe a system driver, that is running on your computer).
thank you
