Unable to update Ipod mini / Computer not responding to Ipod

I recently switched computers and I installed the iPod mini software onto my new computer. This worked at first but when I started moving music from iTunes onto my iPod from my new computer, the downloads would stop even though the music had not been fully downloaded. When I checked my iPod, the new music was not there. I downloaded the new iTunes and the new updater. I then tried to update my iPod software but it said "Firmware failure" and then my iPod mini started showing me the exclamation mark folder every time I turned it on. I tried to restore the iPod using my new computer but everytime I tried to do that, it showed "Firmware failure." Next, I plugged my iPod mini into my old computer and used an old update program to restore the iPod and it worked. When I plugged the iPod back into my new computer, the computer would take a long time to recognize the player but iTunes wouldn'recognize it at all. When I try to update the ipod mini software, it shows initializing for a long time before the program crashes.
What should I do to get this ipod working again?

ok try this ...... this is the totally resetting things to do !!!!! first holthe center and the menu down when the apple comes then hold the center and the play down...... then it should be totally reset.... then install the new ipod updater and itunes 4.9 and then try if it works ...........

My Ipod mini will not update, help?

I just downloaded iTunes 7, and now when I plug in my ipod, iTunes doesn't come up. Even if I open iTunes, I doesn't "sense" my iPod. I doesn't show up on the list and the "Sync iPod" option under the "File" drop down menu is all greyed out. I also tried using the iPod updater program and it said "Invalid iPod service version". I'd really appreciate some help.

IPod Mini: Won't respond, Won't Connect to Computer...Help please?

I have iPod Mini, a little over a year. Model A1051.
It will not turn on, or restart.
When connected to the USB 2.0, the computer does not recognize that it is connected.
I've downloaded the iPod updater, but since the computer does not recognize it, nothing happens.
I know there is nothing wrong with my computer or USB 2.0 ports because I also have an iPod Video, Model A1136.
This iPod Video works fine, and connects correctly to the computer and iTunes.
Two days ago, my iPod Mini would not turn on, but when I hooked it up to my computer, through the USB 2.0, the "battery charging" icon came up and I let it charge overnight. The next day, the "restart" (apple) icon was flashing on and off every other second, and that's when I realized it was not registering in iTunes. Eventually, the flashing icon stopped, and at that point, the computer would not respond to toggling the hold switch and holding the center and on/off buttons.
Is the battery dead for good?
Is there some kind of warranty that covers this type of problem because it is a first generation iPod Mini (I heard that the first generation iPod Minis all had faulty batteries)?
If there is no warranty or coverage, is this fixable? How much would it cost?
Please comment if you have any suggestions...or the cure.

First, have you tried resetting it by holding the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see the Apple logo while it's connected?
Your iPod came with a one-year warranty. Since your iPod is over a year old, unless you purchased an extended warranty, this will not be covered. Don't give up hope though... we'll likely be able to get it sorted.
As for the first generation battery rumor you heard - I have a two year old first generation mini that's still working perfectly.

My Ipod Touch is not responding. I have restored, I have recovered, I have followed the troubleshooting tips. It is still frozen and I can't turn it on or off. Is there anything else that can help?

Let the battery fully drain. After charing for at least an hour try a reset and restore.

IPod Mini will not come on, Help please

Yesterday I was leaving my house and I properly removed my ipod mini from my computer through Itunes. When i reached my car, i pressed the menu button and the ipod mini would not turn on. I figured i would wait. (Seeing as this has happend to me before and the ipod came on in a couple of hours) I tried to turn in on hours later that evening and the ipod would still not turn on and has continued to do that today. Please help if you have any knowledge on this matter.

It sounds like a dead battery...was it charged with you disconnected? Do you have an itrip or other device plugged into it? My itrip kills my battery even when the red light isn't on and appears to be off. Hope this helps! Good Luck

My ipod touch is not responding when i plugged it in even with a different cord and restarting my computer

my ipod touch is not responding when i plugged it in even with a different cord and restarting my computer and i am using my moms itunes that she has had for a long time and so i cant uninstall itunes.

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.

Did you check the USB cable or try another one?
Did you check the docking port for any kind of debris or lint?
Did you already try to reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?

My Ipod mini will not sync...A duplicate file name was specified. What does that mean?

My Ipod mini will not sync. I get the message that A duplicate file name was specified. What does that mean and how do I correct it so I can download my new purchases?
Thank you

Refer to my earlier reply, but here is a quick fix to the corrupted filesystem, which might work
Open My Computer
Right-click your iPod -> click Properties.
Click the Tools Tab -> Error Checking ->
Check "Automatically fix file system error"
k Start.
Let the scan complete, eject your iPod and reconnect.
Good Luck!

Was the iPod setup via iTunes on this computer?

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?

My ipod mini si not working and I can't find the answer.

My ipod mini is not working. I have done all the R things. It won't switch on unless I toggle the hold key, once switched on it asks me to choose a language but pressing the select button does nothing. Can it be saved or should I throw it in a heap with my Dyson vacuum?????????

It's no longer under warranty? Rather than throw it away, there are 3rd party repair site here in the UK (iPod Doctor is one).
Might be worth a try because it seems like a hardware issue rather than software.

HT4061 my touch screen on my iPad mini is not responding

my ipad mini is not responding to me?

Try a soft reset by simultaneously pressing the home and power buttons until you see the Apple logo, then release both buttons. This is a good trouble shooting step since it is so easy, and you won't lose ant data.
