Cheers Allan

Try:
- 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 iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipod Nano Locked Up PLEASE HELP!!!

Ok, I purchased a second generation 4gig green Ipod nano on Monday. For some strange reason today it locked up. Now it refuses to work at all. It is stuck with the backlight on and the music paused. I do not know what I did worng or if it is my Ipod. It was working perfectly. Then I pressed pause and it screwed up. If nobody can help me by tommorrow I will have to take it back. Also, my computer just managed to detect it. It told me I should restore it so I told it yes. Now it keeps having the error message "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod "iPod". The requested resource was not found." Somebody please help me.

Igor, could you tell me what you did to fix it? My
iPod fell out of my locker and now my iPod's stuck on
hold!
Are yu saying that the hold switch doesn't work to get it out of "Hold"? Have you tried (with the hold switch in the left or off position) to reset it: press and hold Menu and Select (center) buttons at the same time for at least 6 seconds?

Error message when connecting Nano to computer - please help!

I just started getting an error message when I try to disconnect my Ipod Nano from my computer after it's done charging/updating. The message tells me the device can't be stopped because other programs are utilizing files on my nano.
I tried restarting my computer, but it froze. It's happened twice now and I have had to disconnect it when it says not to. Please help!

I have been ejecting it. This problem only began recently. I read through about 30 pages of this forum and found someone postoing about the same problem. They said it may be McAfee Viruscan in the background.I'll check that out.

NEW IPOD NANO NOT WORKING, PLEASE HELP

Hi Guys,
I have the large IPOD (4 YEARS OLD) and bought a 2nd Ipod Nano that's smaller for the gym. I plugged it into my MAC BOOK PRO and it keeps saying it needs to be updated which I press "OK" and then it asks for my password and when I type it in, it keeps stating it's "incorrect"? What should I do, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

My plan was to fresh install OSX, install Carbon Copy Cloner and then clone the old drive by plugging it in with a reading device I have.
Hi VS,
What "reading device" are you using?
As it started the macbook told me I was '+running on battery power+' and '+was I sure?+'. With full battery I said yes and continued.
It is best to have the power adapter connected when running a long process like this which cannot be interrupted.
The new internal drive was also making a repetitive noise - not loud or anything but certainly sounded like it was searching for something. As the whole thing was stuck and nothing was working I held down the power button.
How long was it "stuck?"
I tried again with the first disc but it wont even do anything anymore! I took out the new drive and put in the old one. Booted up. Connected the new drive to the reader with the idea of re-formatting it via disc utility.
But now the brand new drive is not readable and is making the a few funny repetitive noises.
Please help me someone - I'm very worried about this new drive now!!! Is is broken or corrupted or something???
It sounds like there is something amiss with the new HD. If you have access to a different external enclosure, (even on a PC, just to see if the HD will function), you could try erasing/formatting it again. If not, I think it's time to contact the vendor about a return.

Ipod frozen please help

So, I was thinking to myself one day about how the aluminum casing for the ipod was kind of dull, so I made a new one out of Rosewood and Cedar. It looks sexy, but the click wheel doesn't work right any more. I replaced the wheel and screen with new parts when I rebuilt the case. Now, I can use the wheel to reset it (holding menu and select) but it just goes to the default menu and won't move. I can also connect to the computer and play my music that way. Anyway, I'm slowly dying without my portable music, so please please help. Thanks.

See this.
How to reset the iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond.
It may take quite a few attempts and is best done connected to power.
If this doesn't work, try restoring the iPod to factory settings.

Nano in redundancy - Please Help!!

Please help - My nano keeps reseting itself. The Apple logo comes on, the screen goes blank, and then the Apple logo comes on again. IT just keeps doing this. I can't reset it, and iTunes won't read it while it is doing this. What do I do? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

See if you can put it in disk mode. As soon as it resets, push center + play/pause. Then, you can do a restore in disk mode.

My Itunes is frozen please help!

I am trying to import a cd and it got half way thru and and is frozen. I cant even quit the application. what do I do?? Please help.

Your CD is probably damaged so when you get it out,
check it carefully for scratches.
You can also put your cursor on the Dock's iTunes
icon, hit control (or right click) and see a menu for
iTunes. Force Quit is at the bottom.
I just ran into this issue with damaged CDs and I'm
certain there's got to be a way to tell iTunes to
bail out of attempting to import a file that it
simply cann't read but I'm not finding any help.

I am experiencing the same trouble in here - although the CDs I am trying to import are perfect. Besides, if I try to force-quit iTunes, the whole Tiger freezes. I've seen other posts in this forum and I'm starting to think it has something to do with an iTunes 6.0.5 issue - 'cause other users are having the same kind of trouble.
If it's not that, then it's a hardware trouble.

IPod is FROZEN Please help

Today my Ipod was running out of battery so I connected it to my computer.
For some reason, my computer took EXTRA LONG to load, so I turned it off and restarted, and disconnected my ipod this time.
This time my computer was fine, except half the icons on my desktop weren't there.
I reconnected my ipod and trie to open itunes, but an error message came up.
It said that there was a problem with my ipod, and audio would not be played as normal.
Itunes didn't load up, so I restarted.
*All this time, I realised that my ipod's screen had been frozen and when I tried to turn it off, nothing at all happend.
It is still frozen and it doesn't connect to itunes.
Last time I checked, the battery is pretty low, so I'm waiting for the battery to run out.
Please help. I have no idea what to do!*

Sometimes when the batteries totally run out it could cure the problem. It is like performing a hard reboot of the ipod that is frozone. I would then let your ipod charge up all the way before using it again.
A hard reboot would require the battery to be disconnected internally for a minute then hook battery back up and reassembly ipod. It should boot up fine then if there is no hardware failure.

Turn the Hold switch on , then off again and press-and-hold the Menu and Select (centre) buttons for ten seconds.
"Wiggling it" will not work, unless it's a new form of dance
