New issue with iPod update 1.2

So I just got off the phone with applecare and the guy said that with all the issues that have just come up with the ipod and 1.2, this one he hasn't heard of. Any of you have it? here's the issue:
When the ipod (5 gen 30G) is turned on the screen "scrolls" like a ticker screen in times square in New York. The whole screen shifts from right to left. Sometimes all the horizontal lines of pixels don't scroll all together and it results in a "smeared" look making it unreadable. If the lock is on, it stops. If I scroll the wheel clockwise or counterclockwise the whole screen "scrolls" right to left faster. The faster I spin the wheel, the faster the screen moves. Tried everything with applecare and they can't get it to stop. It occurred IMMEDIATELY after installing the 1.2 update. (as a matter of fact while it was resyncing the red circle with the line thru it started moving across the screen).
Anyone else encounter this?
Tom

Try doing a restore, and if that doesn't work, you may need to return/exchange it.

  • Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 Windows XP Thanks.

    Why does FF save files to desktop, when I have "downloads" checked in options? This is a new issue with the latest version 3.6.3 . Using Windows XP Driving me nuttier! Thanks.
    (Is is that MicroNetFrame Asst thing?)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == When I installed latest version

    Thanks for your reply. I appreciate your help.
    It was just a hunch that MircoNetFrame was causing the problem. I disabled it as you suggested, and I still have the problem.
    I just changed under Tools>Options> General - had checked "ask me every time" under downloads, so instead of asking me, FF saved the download to I know not where. It no longer saves it to the desktop, leaving a duplicate in "my documents".
    In windows, I have found unless one knows the entire name of the document, one can never find anything. It isn't listed under recent ''''''__. I can't recall the nomenclature, but the
    capability is ridiculous. So, I don't know where that file I just downloaded is!
    I downloaded a PDF file, but this happens with all DL's. It was so easy to have them all stacked in one place and I could recall
    what I had and when I downloaded it easily.
    Do you have any other suggestions other that going back to the old version of FF, which I would rather not do?
    Thanks again for your time, it is very considerate to help a complete stranger, I must say. Sounds like something I might do! Cheers!

  • Issues with iPod Touch and latest update (4.3.3)?

    I recently updated my iPod Touch 3G to 4.3.3.  Before updating, I had absolutely no issues.  Since updating, the iPod will shut off at will, sometimes flickering, sometimes going straight to the "slide to shut down" screen.  Sometimes it will shut down in the middle of an app, I'll start it back up, and it will shut down again immediately.  Occasionally, when I start it up after crashing, it will make the camera shutter sound!  And there's no camera on this iPod!
    Possible extenuating circumstance: I upgraded from a Power PC iMac to an Intel iMac at the same time I updated the software on the iPod.  I have read the suggestions and the troubleshooting guide, and nothing has helped so far.  I wiped the iPod clean and reinstalled and all that did was wipe out my settings (of course).  Resyncing the iPod worked (apps and music loaded fine), but still it shuts down without warning.  I tried installing a new free app, but that didn't work.
    Usually I'm pretty good at figuring out these sorts of issues, but I'm at my wits end.  Is anyone else having these problems?  Am I screwed?

    Okay, so now I have read that you have to install a free app through the phone, not through the computer.  I've done so and it looks like everything is good for now.  Keeping my fingers crossed.  My question now, is that if this is a common occurance with the 4.3.3 update, why did Apple imply that I needed to wipe my iPod clean when this was the much easier and less invasive answer?

  • I tried to set up a new library for my old ipod nano so i could update songs on it however when i tried to import songs from a cd it crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting to sync the new songs with ipod nano. now i cant find old library

    However during the process of adding new songs itunes crashed and i had to end task therefor not getting the chance to sync the new songs onto ipod nano. later when i plugged in my current ipod touch all my songs have disappeared and i cant find the original itunes library i had for it! is there anyway to get it back? i have tried pressing shift when opening itunes but still cant find the original itunes that i had!!

    Since all of your music came from your computer in the first place, then it should still be there and should be included in your backup copy of your computer.
    " it told me when i pluged hers in 2 ipods could not use the same account"
    This is not true.  You have misunderstood.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like to one one library.

  • Any known problems with iPod Updater 2006-06-28?

    I was wondering if anyone's had any issues with their iPods since updating with the iPod Updater 2006-06-28.
    Thanks!

    I was a fool. I refrained from updating because I knew better than to try to fix something that isn't broken, but I was hungover and upset about the fact that whenever the headphones cord wiggles my ipod pauses. I was convinced for the split second in between two throbbing beats in my head that perhaps the new update would give me an option of shutting that aspect of the ipod off. Woe is me.
    Now 10 gb of my music is unavailable. The ipod just skips over it. It didn't delete the files, they're all still there, I just can't play them; not on the ipod nor on the computer (not original computer for ipod). In Itunes an exclamation point shows up in the first column whenever I try to play certain songs, but there is no information about what is wrong. If I go to info on these songs there is no entry for Profile: Channel: or Encoded With:, unlike the rest of my songs that still work.
    Any hope of recovery?

  • IPod Mini failed with iPod Updater 2005-06-26 & iTunes 4.9

    Has anyone experienced iPod mini first generation failing completely (running low on batteries) after installing the iPod Updater 2005-06-26 & iTunes 4.9?
    My iPod mini showed "Low battery sign please recharge" after being fully charged shortly after I installed the latest updater and iTunes 4.9. My iPod mini would show low battery status after playing 5 minutes or less. After several attempts to reinstall the latest update and iTunes software, I resolved the issue by reverting back to the original iPod Updater 2004-04-28 and iTunes 4.5. Now my iPod functions as before with the expected battery life.

    Yeah, I didn't download it for that reason. I like my itunes the way they are. My iPod didn't work with the other one. So, I restored it. I don't plan to change my iTunes until i know for sure the new one is fool proof.

  • IPod Cannot be updated or mounted with ipod updater or itunes

    Every time i try to update my ipod on itunes i either get "The iPod "Tdunks iPod" cannot be updated. The disk cannot be read from or written to." or i will get "The iPod "Tdunks iPod" cannot be updated. Required file not found." When i try to use ipod updater i get " Can't mount iPod" I have an ipod nano 2gb black version and am runnign windows xp with the newest itunes and ipod updater.

    try this, change the drive letter of the ipod this can sometimes solve your issue change it to "M" or something like that this is how to change it, Click on control panel/admin tools/computer management/disk management/right click on the iPod to re-assign the drive letter.

  • Major issues with iPod even after restore

    I have a 120 GB iPod Classic and it was working well but I transferred some videos and some of the files got really messed up on it. First the languages got corrupted and most Asian characters wouldn't show up. I plugged it in and then ejected it after looking through my songs and that fixed the problem.
    Then I found out a bunch of the videos on the iPod were not opening for a while, then when they did, it only showed a really messed up screen, and the iPod was causing the computer to freeze whenever I did anything in iTunes. I deletes those videos, and it froze the computer, and after a long time I took it out and those files did actually end up deleted. I tried to transfer a few files, and it took hours (maybe 3 hours of podcasts) and then when it was done, I ejected safely, and lo and behold, all my files are totally corrupt. I did a Restore, and then it seemed to fix most problems, and I tried transferring music to it. After about 200 songs, the transferring began to freeze for minutes at a time, and finally completely stop moving and freeze iTunes. It keeps alternating between the "Connected - Eject before disconnecting" image and a "Synchronizing" image. I tried to Restore again, and then transferring more stuff, it happened again. Sometimes the computer tells me to scan and fix errors with the external device.
    After a few more tries of restoring, it keeps freezing after a certain point. It holds up my entire computer when it does it, and the iPod sometimes makes clicking noises when transferring. Loading up certain videos is extremely slow, and the thumbnail it's showing for my videos is an extremely staticy screen. I think the hard drive is corrupted, but wouldn't restoring the iPod fix that? I don't want to do anything else to it right now, since it'll still play some music alright, but there's massive issues with it that I can't fix, and most of my music is now gone. It seems to be taking tons of time of clicking and not doing anything to transfer even the smallest file, and sometimes it just freezes entirely. It seems like it's a specific part of the HD that's actually experiencing physical damage, but I don't know.
    Can anyone help? I've tried everything I can do, but I feel like the more I try to fix the worse it's going to be. My warranty lasts until November 30, and I'm wondering if I can just get a replacement.

    Just an update:
    I connected my iPod again today, and this time I tried transferring just 1 file to "check if it would be better." The 1 song still took maybe 15 minutes to transfer and froze iTunes for a while, and then when I tried to eject it it kept telling me the files were in use by another program. Well I tried to Restore it, since obviously something was screwed up. Same error. Everything became frozen when I tried to click for my iPod's information in the side bar. Then I manually unplugged it and plugged it back in, Windows tells me to scan and fix errors on the drive, I didn't because that causes explorer.exe to freeze up, and then I restored the iPod again. Right now there's only 3 playlists on there, and I think that's well below the danger zone, but I don't know what's wrong with it or what to do about it right now.

  • Major Issues with iPod Touch - Please help!

    Hi, I am having major issues with my iPod, and nothing seems to be going right. It all started a few days after I got it for Christmas. I would wake up, and my iPod would be completely discharged even though it had a full battery and was turned off. I woke up one night and found that it came on all by myself. I sent it into iPod, and they sent it back saying nothing was wrong. Since I got it back today and within six hours, I have had four software crashes to the point where I have had to uninstall iTunes and restore factory settings four times. I am now on my fifth crash, but this time, the screen won't even come on. It keeps saying that it is in recovery mode. I simply went to turn it on! Does anyone have any suggestions? Personally, I think there is a short, and that I need a new a replacement. However, it doesn't seem like Apple is very supportive of the idea. I go through all of their steps over and over and over, and the same thing happens! What is going on? Please help.
    Marie

    sounds like, for the charging problem anyways, that you are just putting ipod into "Stand by" mode... press and hold the power key for about 10 seconds and an option to power off will actually come on.. if u just press it and let go, it just goes to stand by.. i have noticed stand by drains my battery
    also, it doesn't sound like a short to me... the charging i am pretty sure is bc you are only putting it into standby however, the rest sounds like software.. did u try and restore using itunes or did you just reset the factory defaults?? Plug it into itunes and click restore under the ipod menu...

  • Two issues with latest update for Windows

    I have noticed 2 issues with the new update.  When I have a file transfer I don't want, there is no longer a cancel link.  Also, when saving a file transfer that I do want, it saved it to the default location and updated my preferences to always do that.  It should respect the option setting to prompt me for a download location.

    KenMadsen wrote:
    My options are set to "choose a folder to save the file in each time", which is not being respected anymore.  The above reply does NOT address the missing ability to cancel an unwanted file transfer.
    Try again please.
    As long as you have a bullet in "choose a folder to save the file in every time"  then it will not save files to a folder or automatically accept incoming files.  The main exception to that is the initiation of a file for the first time on the newer clients.  If it pops up about the new automatic saving you would click on "settings" and toggle it back to you preferred setting.  The only other exception to that are images.  Images sent to you via a mobile are sent to the cloud and will be cached/downloaded into your media folder.  That cannot be avoided.  You can cancel ongoing transfers on your end but not pending transfers.
    I made this graphic to better break it down:
    If you find your Skype is not listening to your configuration changes beyond what was already mentioned, you can use the following program to reset your Skype configuration.  You will need to exit completely out of Skype beforehand, otherwise the reset will be incomplete.

    You can then rerun through the wizard, perform an initial file transfer, reconfigure your settings and those settings should hold.

  • Charge new iPad with iPod USB adapter 5V 1amp?

    Is there any problem to charge my new iPad with a USB iPod wall adapter with an output of 5V 1amp? And is it okay to do it daily? Will it affect in any way the battery?

    The quickest way (and really the only 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 (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Problem with iPod Updater 2006-08-28

    Hi,
    It seems that there is a bug in this version of the iPod Updater. I didn't know where to post so I came here as this problem may be the related to the fact that I use it on my Nano 1Go.
    When I restored my iPod, the iPod Updater created a void SysInfo file :s
    So this was a problem to test stuff like iPodLinux.
    I had to restore it with the precious version on the CD (2006-03-23) and then make an update with the 2006-08-28 to keep the SysInfo file.
    Is it normal ?
    Could someone warn apple of this bug ?

    I was a fool. I refrained from updating because I knew better than to try to fix something that isn't broken, but I was hungover and upset about the fact that whenever the headphones cord wiggles my ipod pauses. I was convinced for the split second in between two throbbing beats in my head that perhaps the new update would give me an option of shutting that aspect of the ipod off. Woe is me.
    Now 10 gb of my music is unavailable. The ipod just skips over it. It didn't delete the files, they're all still there, I just can't play them; not on the ipod nor on the computer (not original computer for ipod).
