My ipod just doesnt work.

Ive had my ipod for a couple months now. when i bought it off this guy, it had 2536 songs on it and it worked great, no problems. i erased all of the songs and started fresh with all my songs imported from CD's. I imported a lot of CD's, listened to them, got more CD's put them on, worked great, and ive just been putting more songs on (i still only have 342) and after awhile my Ipod just quit working. heres the symptoms:
Freezes constantly,
Plays only a select few songs after a very long time,
Doesn't play mostly ANY songs,
Says track is playing, but no sound. (volume is all the way up, not on hold headphones all the way in and not broken at all),
Some songs skip
It used to work fine. What could be the problem?

Hello Nick,
If you can hear the sound and the message showing "Do not disconnect", I believe that your iPod does connect with your PC, however, due to some error, your PC does not recongize your iPod. Why we put our iPod into Disk Mode? Because we treat the iPod as an external hard disk, which often got rec ongize by the computer. It did take me several attempts i.e. plug and unplug, and reached the level that my iPod icon appeared in my computer folder. If you manage to reach this stage you can format your iPod which is equal to a HD anyway and fix up the disk problem.
I am not good in PC, but I have few experience that the Disk Utility of my Mac failed to format my iPod, I use erase partition instead. Bingo, which allowed me to reformat the ipod and restored the latest iPod updater

Not much you can do except these.
My iPod won't turn on.
iTunes 7 doesn't recognize the iPod.
Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod</font color</a>.
You've made sure it has a full battery charge?

What can I do if my ipod just stopped working?

what can I do if my ipod just stopped working? I just purchased it on Aug 23, 2013. I was jogging with it then it just shut down and have not been able to turn it back on.

It could be, since Apple is not liable for user negligence. However, there is no way to definitevely say yes or no on these forums. Apple will run a diagnostic on the device and draw their own conclusions. I would advise not telling them that part though. Best of luck.

Mac OS 9 - iTunes for iPod mini doesnt work,what do??

last week i bought an iPod mini,but iTunes 4.7 which is on the iPod cd doesnt work (the iPod mini software also not),i think because my mac is too old.
so were can i get iTunes plus the iPod mini software which runs on my macintosh?

There is no version of iTunes for Mac OS 9 that will work with the iPod mini. The last version of iTunes for Mac OS 9 is version 2.04, and that will only work with first and second generation full-size iPods, plus third-generation full-size iPods which are running version 2.0x of the firmware. All third-generation iPods and iPod shuffles can be used as an external hard disk in the Finder. Mac OS 9's iPod updater will only work with first and second generation full-size iPods.

Unless you're trying to tether your phone to your computer or create a personal hotspot, it won't pair with your computer by bluetooth. File transfer by bluetooth is not supported. So, you can quit trying unless you're trying to tether.

When i go to turn my imessage back on it just doesnt work

When i go to turn my imessage back on it just doesnt work

Is it just stuck waiting for activation?
If so, I would try to do these steps in here
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
If nothing in there solves it, you may need to back you iPhone up to iTunes (on a computer).
Then go to setting < general < reset and choose 'erase all content and settings"
Then you'll go through the set up assistant 'make sure you set up 'as new' just so you can sign into iMessage and facetime.
Once the device is back to the home screen, re connect it to iTunes, and restore from your back up
Hope this helps 

Ok one day out of the blue my ipod just stopped working it wouldnt turn on nothing but after recovering it, it's fine now but there is only one problem my screen wont work i can't do anything on it not even unlock it please someone help!!!!

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

Javaw just doesnt work

Hi,
I normally run my java program called 'Client' using a batch file. The batch file contains a command like this:
C:\jdk1.3.0_02\bin\java Client
This runs fine when i double click on the icon but the dos box is shown.
I heard that if I use javaw instead of java the box will not be shown.
But it just doesnt work for me. The dos box is still there waiting for my program to close.
Can anyone help me.
Thanks ,
Jim

The window you're getting is the one used to run your batch file.
Make a shortcut to javaw.exe, then edit it adding the parameters for the javaw program. -jar -classpath or whatever.

My lock button on my ipod touch doesnt work anymore

My lock button on my ipod touch doesnt work anymore please help it works fine otherwise well and the battery is all the sudden dying really fast and these 2 problems started at the same time.

- When you depress the button does it feel like it is working? Could something gotten in the space and jammed the button?
- Can you reset the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Have you tried restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes on your computer.
- Next would be to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost

My Ipod just stopped working, the screen got black and now I can't open it. I have tried to charge it but it doens't work.

My Ipod touch 5 just stopped working. The screen got black and now I can't use it or start it.
I have tried to charge it but it doens't start and when I tried to connect it with my computer it didn't work either.
I saw that you could hold down the "home" button and the "power" button at the same time but my home button doens't work so I can't do that.
Is there any other way I can fix it or do I have to go to an apple store?

Try:
Turn on without Home/Power Button

Ipod just not working period.....

I have a Ipod 120gig classic that i bought from amazon 4 months ago, i worked fine for a the 1st 2 months then one time when i was bike riding it locked up on me. I took it home & let the battery drain then plug it in to charge it & it was fine. Now just the other day for no reason it was telling me that i had 315mb left of storage when i really only had like 50gigs of music & 10gigs of video for no reaon it was saying i had like 50gigs of space used under "other." So I did everything apple recommended in their website...the 5 "R's" (Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall & Restore) and after i followed itunes directions for restoring it & now my ipod just has a blank grey sceen. All i see is that the battery is charging. I do have all the updates for itunes & ive never dropped my ipod or got it wet. Anybody have any idea whats going on or had a similar situation?

I just bought a ipod 4gb nano for my wife and ever since I have been trying to get it to be recognized by itunes. As you described above, I used the updater (2006-6-28), which recognized the ipod and performed the update. Then I ran itunes and it didn't recognize the ipod. I went to Apple's troubleshooting guide and did every single step, even reinstalling windows, after which I repeated all the reccomendations again. I then went back to the store and got them to exchange my ipod since the problem was also ocurring on the 3 computers they tried to connect the ipod to. Guess what? I happily plugged my ipod to the computer and ran the updater again. Same problem. Unfortunately I did not try using the ipod without updating the software. It's kind of hard to do this because once I connected it the software pops up and tells you to update your ipod. I guess that there is something wrong with the new software. I have searched all over the web for a fix for this problem and have not found anything yet.

Help my classic 160 ipod just stopped working

my ipod classic has just stopped working. Wont connect to anything. dead as a dodo. help

thanks a million think that might have worked. I did it and seemed like nothing happen so before a threw it against the wall, lol, i plugged it into the computer via usb and it started to charge.
Now this leads me to another issue i have had before, that is itunes not recognizing my ipod when it is plugged in. That is what is happening now, and this has happen before. The solution i have had before was to shut down MAC and restart, which is very annoying when trying to add a pod-cast to ipod and leave the house. Any thoughts???
thanks again!
