Need Help With Restoring My Ipod, Problem seems Unique, please help.

Hi, I have a mini as most of you others do as well. I will outline all the problems and the solutions I have taken to solve these problems, yet they have all failed.
1) When trying to turn my IPOD on I run across the Folder with the Exclamation Point
SOLUTIONS: I have tried to reset, and change the format of the drive, both have failed to solve the problem. When I try to connect the ipod to the computer (in disk mode and out of disk mode) it says The Ipod is corrupt it may need to be restored. So I restore the IPOD and it says Disconnect it and replug it into a power source (which I interpret as the wall charger). After I disconnect it (I have tried just disconnecting it when the menu restarts to the APPLE and disconnecting it by manually selecting the IPOD from the source list to disconnect after waiting) and plugging it into the wall charger I get the folder with the exclamation point again. It seems to be a cycle, and I don't know how to break it. If it is a faulty harddrive I guess I will try to replace it using the method outlined in other posts, but if I'm missing anything please let me know. Thank you.

That's the faulty drive/OS indicator.
If restoring the iPod from iTunes doesn't work, it's likely that the drive has died and needs to be replaced.
It's a fairly easy task with the proper tools.

Welcome to the forum.
First thing that I would do would be to look at this Adobe KB Article to see if it helps.
Next, I would try the tips in this ARTICLE.
If that does not help, a Repair Install would definitely be in order.
Good luck,

I need help with Restoring my iPod. =/

Okay, so I put music on my iPod using WinAmp, right? Well, the music was unorganized and the quality was terrible, so I downloaded iTunes and transferred the music to iTunes from WinAmp. I also wanted to restore my iPod so I could re-add the music files to it.
NOW, iTunes tells me that my iPod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. So I restore it, and it STILL tells me it needs to be restored. I swear, I've "restored" this thing like eleven times.
Oh, and to add to the problem, it's suddenly telling me that my iPod has encountered a problem while restoring itself by an "unknown error"
*PLEAE HELP!* I would give you everything I own if I knew you personally, I just want my music. lol

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive and iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

VERY weird iPod problems...Please Help!

Okay, folks, do I have a doozy of a problem here.
Okay, first off, when I connected my iPod to the computer a week or so ago, it told me that there was a firmware update, so I downloaded it and installed it. That is where my problems began. Soon after, the iPod began to freeze a lot while playing songs. I would reset it, but it would continue to freeze while playing songs.
Next, I turned the iPod on yesterday after having not used it for 2 or 3 days and when it came on, ALL of my songs were gone. It said that there were ZERO songs on the iPod. But the kicker is that it still said that I had the same available space as when I had 3500 or so songs on it. (Don't worry, I have back-ups of those songs, so I didn't lose them).
So, I figured that I would try to reformat the iPod and maybe then things would start to work. That doesn't happen. When I try to run the updater (with or without the iPod initially connected via Firewire), it just sits there on "Initializing...." and freezes.
So I then figured that maybe I should just try to run the software that came with the iPod and maybe that would help. Well, last night I ran the software and after running through the entire line that lights up on "Waiting for iPod" 4 or 5 times, it told me that the iPod needed to be formatted. So I clicked the "Format" button. This morning, I came to check on things and it was still "Formatting" with no end in sight. It did not take this long when I originally installed the thing.
That made me think there might be a problem with the harddrive, but when I went into "Diagnostic mode" and ran the HDD scan, it came back as "Pass". Now, that may mean that there are still problems, but it's nothing I can think of how to fix at the moment.
This is my last resort before I call Apple and probably have to pay to get it fixed! By the way, I've had it since January of this year. Thanks for any help you guys can be!

First of all, replying with "I have had the same problem and Tech Support hasn't been able to help me at all!" is not going to help anyone.
In fact, it's kind of considered "thread-jacking" and is considered rude.
As for my problem, it has been solved (some-what). I succumbed to downloading Windows XP Service Pack 2 (which I had always heard was death for iPods so I avoided it) and things are now running. Not as smoothly as they did before updating to the latest iPod firmware, but still they're running.
My advice for the future, if you're having problems, start your own thread. Don't jump onto someone else's thread because no matter how similar your problems may be, there is no possible way that your problem could be EXACTLY the same as that other person. There are going to be differences between computer configurations, etc.

Need help with query that can look data back please help.

hi guys i have a table like such
CREATE TABLE "FGL"

fgl_grant_year 10 period 1 = for account 7600 its $100 and $100 for period 2 you see 100 dollars again this is not to be added this is the carried over balance. which remains $100.
so im trying to write a query that basically does the following.
im given a period for the sake of this example lets say period 1 i get nothing else. I have to find the greates grant year grab the amount for period 14(which is the total from the previous year) and add it to the amount of the current period. in this case period 1 grnt_year 11
so the expected outcome should be $700
240055     240055     7240     4730     02     10     14     200
240055     240055     7600     4730     02     10     14     100
240055     240055     7600     4730     02     11     1     400keep in mind that im not given a year just a period.
any help that you guys can offer would be immensely appreciated. I have been trying to get this to work for over 3 days now.
finally broke down and put together this post

the current period +(current period - greatest year 00)
hope that makes sense so in other words with the new data above. if i was querying period two of grant year 11. i would end up with $800
because the greatest year is 11 it contains a period 0 with amount of $400 so my total should be
period 2 amount $ 600
period 0 amount $ 400 - period 2 amount of $600 = 200
600+200 = $800
if i query period 1 of grant 360055 i would just end up with 800 of grnt year 10.
i have tried to modify that query you supplied to me with no luck. I have tried for several day but im embarrased to say i just can get it to do what im trying to do .
can you please help me out.

Need help with using new ipod as hard drive. please!

Hi. Has anyone had any problems using the ipod as a hard drive between two systems? I have an old 4th generation ipod which I used on my PC. That ipod worked great between macs and pcs as a hard drive. But recently it is completely screwed up. Anyway, I got a new Mac book pro and a 5th generation 60gb ipod.
Now, I'm trying to get some stuff off my pc and transfer it into my mac. In my pc it comes up in "my computer" but keeps asking me to format the hard drive whenever I do the drag and drop of files into it. I've already formatted it for my mac, but haven't put anything on it yet. So I guess I could just do that for the transfer and reformat it for the mac and then put my music on it.
I just want to know, it worked so well between mac and pc as a hard drive when originally formatted for my pc. will it not work the other way around? Will I have to keep reformatting it for the pc every time and then lose any information and all my music if I want to use it in that way? Or is there something I'm doing wrong? I would really appreciate any help at all that anyone could give me. Who really needs a 60gb anyway, if not to be able to transfer files back and forth between home and work, right?
Dell Dimension 4400/MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9) Windows XP on the PC

Thank you for your reply. It cleared up a lot of confusion for me. But I have one more question.
See, I looked both of those software applications up, and it seems those are to be installed on the windows operating system. My plan is to eventually stop using my PC and give it away to goodwill, however, for work purposes- which is freelance- I'd need to use the ipod as a nice small portable hard drive- I'm a photographer, and work with big files, so I need the larger space that a flash drive can't give me.
So, is there any type of mac formatting on the ipod that can also be read by the pc? Or is there a 3rd party software that can be installed on the ipod that will enable it to be read on the pc and mac while retaining its mac formatting?
If not I guess I'll just have to go back to the old and extremely inconvenient way of doing things. I really wish mac would have mentioned these things before in all their descriptions.

Help with Restoring my IPod Shuffle 1 GB

My IPod shuffle 1 GB (1st Generation Model) had some problems 2 days back wherein it was not showing up on ITunes (I had an older version) while in My Computer it was giving an error say Disk I/O Error. I first installed ITunes 7.0 and then connected my IPod but it was unable to download the update (some firewall issue) So I tried using the IPod shuffle reset utility and it stops after a few seconds saying "ipod restore failed. Error: -25"
Can anyone tell me what I could do to get my shuffle up n runnin again. Pls help. Thank you in advance.

My IPod shuffle 1 GB (1st Generation Model) had some problems 2 days back wherein it was not showing up on ITunes (I had an older version) while in My Computer it was giving an error say Disk I/O Error.
i usually associate those I/O errors with a flaky USB 2.0 connection.
have you added any other USB 2.0 peripherals to you system lately? if so, do you get better recognition if you unplug them prior to attaching the shuffle?
(sometimes power drain through one USB port can affect an ipod connection through a different port, which is what i'm checking on here.)

Does your computer really have Windows ME on it Vivian? If so, be aware that the iPod/iTunes is not supported under ME. It can be done, but it requires some effort. See this:

# To block an IP, simply add it to the blockip.txt text file.
# CHMOD 777 the blockip.txt file (run "CHMOD 777 blockip.txt", without the double quotes)

# If you have a multiple selection box or multiple checkboxes, you MUST name the multiple list box or checkbox as "name[]" instead of just "name"
# you must also add "multiple" at the end of the tag like this: <select name="myselectname[]" multiple>

Using PHP to process an online form and send the input by email is very simple. The mail() function takes a minimum of three arguments, namely: the address the mail is being sent to, the subject line, and the body of the email as a single string. The reason some people use scripts like form2mail.php is because they don't have the knowledge or patience to validate the user input to make sure it's safe to send.
Rather than attempt to trawl through your complex form looking for the problems, I would suggest starting with a couple of simple tests.
First of all, create a PHP page called mailtest.php containing the following script:
<?php
$to = '[email protected]'; // use your own email address
$subject = 'PHP mail test';
$message = 'This is a test of the mail() function.';
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message);
if ($sent) {
echo 'Mail was sent';
} else {
echo 'Problem sending mail';
?>
Save the script, upload it to your server, and load it into a browser. If you see "Mail is sent", you're in business. If not, it probably means that the hosting company insists on the fifth argument being supplied to mail(). This is your email address preceded by -f. Change the line of code that sends the mail to this:
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, null, '[email protected]');
Obviously, replace "[email protected]" with your own email address.
If this results in the mail being sent successfully, you will need to adapt the code in form2mail.php to accept the fifth parameter. You need to change the following line, which is a few lines from the end of the script:
if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader))
Change it to this:
if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader, '[email protected]'))
Again, use your own email address instead of "[email protected]".
Once you have determined whether you need the fifth argument, test form2mail.php with a very simple form like this:
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="form2mail.php">
<p>
    <label for="name">Name:</label>
    <input type="text" name="name" id="name" />
</p>
<p>
    <label for="email">Email:</label>
    <input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
</p>
<p>
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="boat cleaning" id="options_0" />
      Boat cleaning</label>
    <br />
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="RV cleaning" id="options_1" />
      RV cleaning</label>
    <br />
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="motorcycle cleaning" id="options_2" />
      Motorcycle cleaning</label>
</p>
<p>
    <input type="submit" name="send" id="send" value="Submit" />
</p>
</form>
If that works, you can start to make the form more complex and add back your JavaScript validation.

Need help with inventory program!!! someone please help me!!!

Ok I have to write this inventory program for one of my classes.
For part one i needed to Create a product class that holds the item number, the name of product, the number of units in stock, and the price of each unit.
Then create a java application that displays all of the above info plus the total value of the inventory. I have done this so far with success.
For part two i needed to modify the program so the application can handle multiple items. Use an array to store the items. The output should display the information one product at a time including the item number, the name of the product, the number of units in stock, the price per unit, and the value of the inventory of that product. In addition, the output should display the value of the entire inventory.
so create a method to calculate the value of the entire inventory.(i did this)
and create another method to sort the array items by the name of the product. ( i did this)
The program compiles and runs fine except it is not doing anything from part two. It just does the same thing that it did when i wrote part one.
Does anyone know why or what i need to do to my code.
Here is my code.
import java.util.Scanner; // program uses class Scanner
import java.util.Arrays;
class ProductList
Product[] products = new Product[100]; // an array of 100 pruducts

    products[1] = new Product(1, "The Bourne Identity" , 3, 7.95);
    products[2] = new Product(2, "The Reaping"          , 5, 8.99);
      products[3] = new Product(3, "Deja Vu"              , 2,12.99);
      products[4] = new Product(4, "I Know Who Killed Me" , 3,10.95);

You will get more help if your code is formatted better:
* Only post code that is already formatted correctly including indentations.
* Get rid of all those comments cluttering up your code.
* Make sure your posted code compiles without need for any changes. Yours doesn't at present. Where is the ProductInfo class?
Again, you want it easy for a volunteer here to read your post, otherwise he/she simply won't do it. Good luck.

Making a website to help with choosing the colour of a bike - please help me :D

Hello I am trying to make a website where you can take
conponents of a bike and change their colour
there are about 17 conponents that I want to be able to
change the colour of e.g. frame colour and seat colour.
and I want to have 10 - 20 colours
the number of combinations would be huge, so to have that
many pictures, with a link to each is probs not the best solution
by far.
I was planning on having a more interaction site, where when
a colour or conponent is selected, it changes in front of you - any
ideas how I could do this?
prehaps a simple solution would be to have a range of
buttons, that when selected display a different coloured conponent
- how do I make a button that when pressed reveals say a coloured
box and doesnt dissapear when the mouse is moved away from the
button - is this the hit feature? if so how do I make it work!?
Any help would be fantastic
Simon

Simon :
The best way you can do it, is firs, to prepare several
colors of the same bike : you achieve this changing the
Hue/Saturation properties in photoshop, so you are going to create,
as an example, 7 different colors (the main colors) you have in
stock.
Then you create independent Movieclips for each one, this
won't load too much your memory since you can make independent
SWF's which are going to be called on pressing the "color button"
using the "LoadMovie" actionscript property. Remember, when you
create the button, you just create small squares orange, blue, red,
yellow, green, etc etc.. so when you click on them, the color they
show is the color that will call the bike.
You have a good example here on using LoadMovie, there are
even more googling around :
http://www.cristalab.com/tutoriales/152/galeria-de-imagenes-en-flash-con-loadmovie.html
P.D.: There is another way, to try to apply colors with
Actionscript, but forget about it, because since the bike pictures
have shadows and shiny parts, this "filling color" way is not going
to fit well. I justed wanted to mention this, I wouldn't try this
way...

Help with Photoshop CS5 Serial Number Invalid? Please HELP!

Well hey guys, i bought the CD and everything when i had the trial version. I put the Serial number and pressed "Continue". It went away, all the features were there. When i pressed CSLive it said that it was invalid. But everytime i start up Photoshop CS5, they dont ask me for my serial number. Ever since i put in my serial number, it hasnt asked me. I could care less about CSlive. Should i be concerned, all i really want is the product, not CSlive. Should i be concerned.

CSLive features require you to register your serial number so it is tied to your Adobe ID. It seems you haven't done that and thus get the warning or you have registered a foreign language serial and are thus not allowed to use your actual language version of CSLive. Don't ask, it's kinda silly, I know. You won't miss much as a PS user, though. Most of this stuff is aimed at web designers and people using collaborative tools like Adobe Story and Live Exchange.

If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode to try and restore it, it's a very good indication, as mentioned in the article, that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and in need of replacement either by Apple or a third party repair company.

i tried to sync my ipad to my itunes using usb but it will say not charging,, i can sync with my ipod touch without any problem... please help..

From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4060 :
The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter. When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
iPods need less power to charge them (their wall charger is half the power of the iPad's, 5W as opposed to 10W), so are more likely to charge via USB
