My iPod is stuck on apple logo and I get a 1434 Error when trying to restore it.

Hello, I hope somebody can help me. I have a 120 gb ipod classic (6th generation). I purchased it a long time ago. It was working fine for a few years and then suddenly it's been stuck on the apple logo ever since.
I tried to restore it by putting in on disk mode and connecting it to my Mac. My iTunes recognizes the device (But my Mac doesn't!). On iTunes, I tried to restore it, but I get an error message 1434, stating that the restoration could not be completed.
I read that I should try to erase the drive with Disk Utility, but when I get there, the button to erase the drive is unclickable. I tried to partition as well, but it also did not work (maybe I am doing it wrong? Could somebody direct me with better instructions?)
I'm wondering if the hard drive is dying, or if I have a bad ribbon, or if the logic board itself is broken. Not sure what method of action I should take. I can't even get into the diagnostic screen.
PLEASE HELP!

Hello E1777,
You can try this link to download iTunes from the Apple website. It should resolve the issue for you.
iTunes 11.0.4

  • Migrated to a new mac pro and keep getting an install error when trying to update the creative cloud app

    I get an error when I try to start creative cloud that asks me to update. I download the updated installer and run it. I then get an error that says:
    Adobe Creative Cloud is needed to resolve this problem. However, it is missing or damaged. Please download and install a new copy of Creative Cloud from 'http://www.adobe.com/go/adobecreativecloudapp'.
    Following the message is two buttons. Quit and Get Creative Cloud. If I follow these directions I will sit here all day just downloading and trying to install Creative Cloud only to find out that I have a problem for which I need to download and install Creative Cloud. This would be like the person who uses a whole bottle of shampoo every time they get in the shower just because is says lather rinse repeat. Can you break this endless loop for me?

    Ado Bee in the future please only migrate documents and settings.  Adobe applications are not designed to be copied from one computer to another.
    You may still be able to recover by completing the following steps:
    Run all available uninstallers in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder

    Please Help

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
    I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the  iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
    The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
    Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
      - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    Have not backed up for months, so prefer not to lose the data.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time of holding both buttons. Click the Update or Restore button that iTunes offers.

  • IMac is stuck on apple logo and spinning wheel

    My wife did a software update and them it asked for a restart, she click restart but the computer got stuck in apple logo and spinning wheel. Won't go past that now. Just keeps spinning! Help for I know not what to do!!!! Please any idea?

    An invalid node is an error DU cannot repair. If you don't mind spending $100 for Disk Warrior, then I suggest you buy it because it can fix the error. Otherwise, do as the warning says. Backup your files. You will then have to erase the drive and reinstall. The procedure is:
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
      1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
      2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
          left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
            the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
          the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
      4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
