My nano no longer works right.

I have an iPod Nano first generation and I dropped it and it diplayed the message,"Use iTunes to restore." When I got home and plugged it in , the computer recognised it and said "iTunes has detected an iPod in restore mode, click restore or else iTunes can't synchronise it" or it was something similar to that. I clicked restore and it finished the process but it got really hot on the back. It disappeared from the computer and froze. When it unfroze, iTunes recognized it but said it needed restored again. The same thing happened. When I got up this morning it wouldn't even turn on. I plugged it in to the computer and the screen flashed on and off then it started to make a humming sound. What should I do.

i did that too so i did the restart thing to it ok so you flick the hold butten 2 times back and
forword then click menu butten and the center butten at the same time now its in sleep mode now trun it on you maybe see the apple logo but if you dont send it to apple hope this helped you
best wishes to your ipod

Did the battery run out of power? If not, try doing a Reset to "reboot" the iPod

My 5th gen nano no longer works on its extrnal speaker dock

my daughters ipod nano 5th gen no longer seems to work correctly when plugged into an external speaker dock. the ipod will still charge, but any sound will play via the ipods speakers not through the externals. the ipod still shows as charging when plugged in and the headphone also works. i have tried it in 2 seperate docks, an ipig (in which it normaly works fine) and a gear4 sound dock. both docks work with no problem with my own ipod touch, but the nano does not seem to be recognised apart from being allowed to charge. is it broken?

Nano no longer working after the 6/28 update? Read this!

I bought a 2gb Nano yesterday. Plugged it in, all was well. Early in the morning I received a message telling me there was a new update, so I applied it. It restarted then iTunes would no longer see it. I reset it, nothing. Tried to restore it to the 03/23 update, nothing. sigh
Perused these forums and found a solution that worked:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=417486&tstart=0
In a nutshell I went into Control Panel, Computer Management, then Disk Management. I reformatted the Nano, disconnected it then did a repair install of iTunes. I went back and installed the 03/23 updater and applied it - everything was fine.
This evening when I returned home I plugged the Nano into my Mac then applied the 6/28 updater and it's worked fine.
So....if you're having problems with your Nano since applying the 06-28 Updater then you might want to try this one. There is mention in one of the threads of Apple Support telling people to do the same.
Good luck!

none, it worked.

Nano no longer works with iTunes, Updater

I got my nano, hooked it up, put music on it, everything worked fine. I was showing my wife how the photo bit worked and the screen went all black pixels and froze. I did a reset and now I am stuck with what I have on the thing. Windows sees the iPod, but neither iTunes or the updater can communicate with it. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, I have tried on other computers as well, no luck. Come on man! Now I get to send it back and wait for another one, you would think for $250 these things would work a little better. Anybody else have this problem?

Welcome to the forums!
Is there an Apple store near you? If so I would go there and meet with their Geniuses <sp>. They can help you sort it out. If they find that the iPod is truly broken they may just offer a replcement on the spot.
The only suggestion I can offer is to switch the hold switch off and on a few times and do the reset again. Sometimes that will work when just a simple reset will not. Reset is the menu and center button at the same time.
I know how it feels to be unlucky with a new gadget. Have to keep in mind that they have made millions of these and a few will have problems.

IPod nano no longer works correctly

I have an iPod nano and I have only just purchased it less than a month ago. Whenever it is laying somewhere not plugged in to the computer it will be a blank screen. If I press menu it will come up with a note that reads "use iTunes to restore" and than it shuts off again. It will do the same thing if I press menu again. when I connect it to my computer it makes a beep that acknoledges that is connected but won't show up on the left where it should. While it is plugged in it will say do not disconnect... and it will not stop saying that! I have tried reseting it s instructed in the manual but that doesn't have any effect. I have also tried disk mode which I don't totally understand but I tried it non the less. Anyway my question basically is how do I fix this and how could I possibly restore it via iTunes if iTunes does not recognize its connection. Please if someone knows what the problem is please respond and help me out. Thanks in advance - Skidd711

Why does my iPod Nano no longer work with JVC TH-BC3 dock?

I have a JVC TH-BC3 soundbar with a built-in iPod/iPhone dock. My iPod now displays a "non-compatible" message on the screen when I when docked in the TH-BC3. What is the problem?

I sent the question to JVC's support desk and they sent the following reply -
Thank you for contacting JVC Customer Care. My name is Veronica, your email care specialist. We value you as a JVC customer and appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance.
I understand you are experiencing difficulties with your JVC TH-BC3 recognizing your iPod Nano. We do apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused. What generation is your iPod Nano? By any chance have you recently updated the iOS? If so, it may just require a soft reset. Simply press and hold the Menu and Home button until the Apple logo appears. This will not erase any information on your iPod/iPhone, simply reboot the software. Please make sure the iPod/iPhone is not connected to the unit while performing the soft reset.
I performed the soft reset and tried my iPod Nano in the dock and it now works!

T530 - Sluggish video through HDMI only. Was fine, no longer working right

Hey all!
I've tried everything I know how. Ran updates, verified the latest drivers were installed, etc.
Long story short, machine is about 4 weeks old. Originally had no problems with video. But just recently, video does not play properly via HDMI. It seems to have started when Windows updates started downloading a few weeks ago. Now I get errors every time it tries to download updates, and the video is not working properly. Not sure if they are related, but that's where we are.
I can load videos (YouTube, streaming, etc) and they play perfectly on the laptop. As soon as I connect it to my TV via HDMI, it gets choppy and sluggish... but the audio is fine. Again, it used to work perfectly, so not sure what's going on.
So, any ideas? This laptop is useless to me if I cannot play videos on a TV or projector via HDMI. Pretty much one of the only reasons I purchased a new laptop.
TIA for any assistance.

No one?

The center button on my 7th generation ipod nano no longer works

if it is warranty i would visit a apple retail store, be sure to set an appointment if you vist the store.

Mail no longer works right through att.my.yahoo on Firefox.

I use ''att.my.yahoo.com'' to access several e-mail accounts. Recently (perhaps about the time I upgraded to Firefox 5 or 5.0.1), I started having trouble after going to mail. I now get a different screen that says “A new look! We’ve improved the way you Sign-In to att.net.” That’s fine, but when I try to sign in, it tells me my password has expired and I need to change it. On another e-mail account, it can’t even find the account at all. When I try to go to “member center,” I have the same problems. One would think this might be an AT&T or Yahoo problem, but all is well when working in Safari or even Explorer. I have emptied Firefox cache and removed any cookies that seem to apply, but neither has helped. What else can be done to fix this?

Strange - never saw any answer(s) on this, but it suddenly started working OK. I clicked into e-mail through Firefox instead of Safari (by accident) a couple of days ago, and it has worked ever since! Guess there really was a problem that Firefox fixed!

App.activeDocument no longer works right

In a different topic, I was explaining my use of app.documents[0] rather than app.activeDocument. I was going to elaborate some about the differences when I hit a snag. There was a dramatic change after CS3 and apparently nobody noticed. I didn't until today. Look at this simple script that expects there to be more than one document open:
docZero = app.documents[0];
activeDoc = app.activeDocument;
$.writeln("docZero: " + docZero.name);
$.writeln("activeDoc: " + activeDoc.name);
// move back document to front
app.activeDocument = app.documents[-1];
$.writeln("\ndocZero: " + docZero.name);
$.writeln("activeDoc: " + activeDoc.name + "\n");
$.writeln("docZero: "+ docZero.toSpecifier());
$.writeln("activeDoc: " + activeDoc.toSpecifier() + "\n");
In CC, I was astonished to discover that I got this result (after creating two untitled documents):
docZero: Untitled-2
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: Untitled-2
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: /document[0]
activeDoc: /document[@id=2]
That second docZero ought to say Untitled-1. Untitled-1 was definitely moved to the front by the app.activeDocument = app.documents[-1] statement. So looking at the docZero specifier, how come I got the wrong name?
I decided to check my sanity and went back to see what happens in CS3 -- the oldest InDesign I still have installed (actually, on two different computers, so I tried it on both). CS3 gives:
docZero: Untitled-2
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: Untitled-1
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: /document[0]
activeDoc: /document[@name="Untitled-2"]
There's two interesting things here:
The second docZero message has the correct name of the document that was moved to the front.
In those days, documents were identified by name, not id.
Point 2 is interesting but off topic.
So I tried CS4 (also on two machines). It gave:
docZero: Untitled-2
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: Untitled-2
activeDoc: Untitled-2
docZero: /document[0]
activeDoc: /document[@name="Untitled-2"]
So this is when things started to go wrong. Interestingly, documents were still identified by name in CS4, so it wasn't that change that caused the change in behavior. It was CS5 (which produced exactly the same output as CC) where the specifier changed to using the id -- a property that had not previously existed for Document objects.
So, I guess the question is: Is this a bug? Looks like one to me. Looks like it stopped working after CS3.

Hi Dave,
This is a typical specifier resolution problem, and indeed this is not related to id-based document specifiers introduced in CS5.
How specifiers are resolved is consistant since CS4—except for Text and Cell specifiers, but this another story.
Here is what happens:
Unlike activeDoc = app.activeDocument (which is instantly resolved), docZero = app.documents[0] remains an unresolved specifier until you hit some property on it, which is done at the next line, when you innocently display the name property:
$.writeln("docZero: " + docZero.name); // this code sends a command that resolves docZero
Then, whatever you do, docZero is internally resolved to an actual receiver (the Untitled2 document), even if the specifier string accessed from docZero.toSpecifier() still contains the original path "/document[0]". Ironically, if you didn't prompt docZero.name before sending the command app.activeDocument = app.documents[-1]; then docZero would have been properly resolved to the Untitled1 document! Remove the first $.writeln and you will see the change.
Now, the question is: how to force a new resolution of the specifier considering its formal path "/document[0]". The answer is getElements(). Just access this method and the magic happens:
docZero = app.documents[0];
alert("docZero: " + docZero.name);          // => Untitled-2
// move back document to front
app.activeDocument = app.documents[-1];
docZero.getElements();                      // resolve again!
alert("\ndocZero: " + docZero.name);        // => Untitled1
alert("docZero: "+ docZero.toSpecifier()); // still /document[0]

Why does my hotmail account account no longer work right? Cannot forward or reply to messages without the original message being lost. Hotmail says it is a problem with the latest Firefox update.

When I try to forward or reply to my emails in my Hotmail account, the original message disappears. Hotmail says it is a compatibility problem with the newest version of Firefox. They suggested I use Internet Explorer. Would prefer to use my old version of Firefox. How do I get it back? Or how can I get my hotmail account to work properly with the 3.6.3 version?
