New updater fouled my 60 gb video Ipod

Video plays (any of my videos) for about 20 secs then freezes, after about 15 seconds continues but with no audio. Have reset and restore, doesn't help. This started inmediately after using the new updater, anybody know a fix?

Actually I did not restore, I don't want to loose everything and start over again. I tried updating from the old version on my CD, everything loads ok but version 1.1 is still inside.
Is there positively no way around the 'restore' process?
Maybe I can forget watching videos untill Apple comes out with something good?
I hope whoever is responsible for the flawed update gets his you-know-what kicked...

  • I can't have the new update 5.0.1 on my ipod touch 2nd generation how do i need to doe it ??

    I can't have the new update 5.0.1. How i will get it ??

    If you have a 3G or 4G iPod, install iTunes 10.5.3 on the computer and connect the iPod to the computer and go to the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes and click on update/chack for update.

  • New update took away sound and video tops after 11 sec

    Today 4.8.2012 i installed new update and after that i lost all sound on flash and youtube and other flash videos frozes after 11 sec.
    Yesterday everything work perfectly.
    My version is 11,3,31,222
    I have windows 7(32bit)
    and i am using chrome.
    Any ideas?

    just make sure you get the latest version of flash. There's two flash installers one for Internet Explorer (or activex) and One for Other Browsers(Firefox, Safari, Opera, etc.) (latest version:11.3.300.268 for both). Chrome doesn't normally allow you by default to install the flash player separately because the flash player plugin is built-in for Chrome (latest version is 11.3.300.265 for Chrome), and go under tools menu on Chrome  of course to see if your chrome browser is up to date to get the latest Chrome flash player plug-in. If getting flash plugin for Chrome 11.3.300.265 doesn't fix the chrome problem. you can actually disable the chrome flash player plugin, and Chrome automatically uses the Flash for Other Browsers plugin.
    You can select manually plugin installers for Internet Explorer And Other Browsers here:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    Here's also more info about flash plugin on chrome:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-google-chrome.html
    On Firefox, was the Flash video playback really choppy/laggy or were you referring to the audio playback being choppy/laggy?
    Also, what type of motherboard model or what's the model of the PC are you using so I can look at the specs?

  • New Updater (2006-06-01) killed my iPod

    I have a 40gig iPod (bought in dec of 2004), which has been rendered useless by the new updater. Whatever you do, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE NEW UPDATER!!!

    yes, we have many of these threads. why don't you try downgrading with an older update software?

  • New update no longer syncs photos/videos!

    Hello everyone...
    I updated my Lumia 1020 with Windows 8.1 (latest update).
    Now I just tried to sync my phone with my computer (mac) and the phone only imported some recent pictures I shot. I did not import videos (iPhoto reported error video format not recognized) and ALL other photos and videos sent to me by whatsapp were not transferred!
    Other photos that I have taken before I upgraded the phone also did not upgrade.
    HELP!
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, 3azeez. Are you using the Windows Phone app for Mac to sync? Regarding the WhatsApp app, it's best to coordinate the concern with the its developer. See: Contact WhatsApp.

    Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
       1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
           other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
       2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
           until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
                  * If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
                    Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
                    release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
      3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
           device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
           let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
           charge, and then start with step 2 again.
      4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
           When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
      5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
      6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    Additional Information:
    If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
    Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.

  • "White Screen" error after most recent update 60 gig video iPod

    I just received the most recent iPod updater software. I installed the updater and ran same. After the update process my 60 gig video iPOD cannot be recognized by my MAC G5. It has a "White Screen" and WILL NOT turn off! When I attempt a reset it simply gives me a 2 or 3 tone beep (I've never heard the tone before). The screen goes dark and it reboots to a white screen. I've re-installed updater and iTunes. I've switched USB ports. I've shut down the computer as well as rebooted same. I've allowed the iPOD to fully discharge (which happened quickly since the screen will not blank). When the unit is plugged into the USB port it charges and the white screen reappears. The updater now refuses to see the iPod so I cannot reset to factory defaults. Any ideas?
    The idiots at Apple instituted a 24/7 chat tech support line for iPod shuttle owners. The guys like me who paid the big bucks for their best product get stuck out in the cold! Apple's whole tech support schtick is barely one step ahead of Dell's! The charge premium prices for their product and I like Apple a lot, but their demand that you be either an Apple Care customer or .MAC user to get even rudimentary support *****!

    Ok, for all the others out who experience this problem....I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple. You have to go to their SECOND level of support to get an answer. But there is a fix.
    If you have a white screen and the unit beep 3 times after a reboot here's what you need to do to fix the problem. Warning all you data will be lost. It will have to be downloaded via iTunes again!
    Disconnect the iPod from the computer. Hold the Select and Menu button down for about 7 seconds to until you get a beep. Then hold down the Select and PLAY button for 10 seconds. This will put the unit in hard disk mode. Wait awhile until the Apple screen goes away and if you get a progress bar wait until it is gone.
    At this point it will take some finagling, but you basically hook the iPod back up to the computer and do a RESTORE. The iPod should be recognized by iPod updater. Your data MAY still be in place, but if you do not do a restore to factory defaults with the updater you will get the white-screen-three-beeps-problem again.
    Once you reboot into the language screen you can reconnect the iPOD and download your data from iTunes.
    I complained this info SHOULD be posted online. They guy was very nice and agreed but said that engineering was still collecting data. He thought it was a dumb idea not to post online or allow the first level support guys to fix the problem.
    Hey Apple...if you read this how about collecting data on your goddamned time and at your expense. You're the SOBs that collected $399 for the product! Ever seen the Comcast or AOL video on YOUTUBE? You guys could be next!

  • Podcast req video iPod

    I was trying to watch a podcast of global news it is saying I need video iPod to watch on my iPad I just updated my iPad what am I missing and how do I fix it

    I can't advise on iPads, not having one, and I'd suggest you ask in the iPad Forum.

  • I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up.

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up. Is there anyway that I could get my videos to appear in my playlist? They are still in my ipod in the video section, but just won't appear in my playlist.

    iOS6 problems aplenty ....not sure if the link I inserted is working or not, but the issue is a lot more prevalent - the issue being that what shows up & plays in iTunes after the iOS6 update is not what shows up (& plays) on the device itself. This may go beyond just the iPod Touch as well.
    In my case I can see & play both audio & video files in my Playlist through iTunes, but can only see the Playlists on the iPod Touch with ALL of them being empty. Syncing numerous times no help. Contacting Apple Tech. Support no help - they suggested downloading my Purchases from the iTunes Store - waste of time, did not make a difference. It is clear Apple needs to release a fix to OS6.
    Another problem I noticed on the device is that the Shuffle option is hidden on the built-in Songs Playlist, having to swipe the screen down to see it - dumb dumb dumb.

  • Error 1418 on BRAND NEW Video ipod - Only 48 hours old!

    Hi,
    Just upgraded from a click wheel ipod to a new 80GB video Ipod. Installed itunes 7.02 and everything worked fine. Last night got the message saying an update was avaliable for my ipod so I clicked update and since then I get the following messages
    1. The ipod could not be read from or written to.
    2. The ipod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored
    3. Unknown error - 1418
    I have tried
    1. 5r's
    2. Reformat through windows
    The ipod now says it is corrupt and needs to be restored through itunes but itunes only returns the 1418 message.
    I have googled this to death and there seems to be alot of issues with the new firmware. I am really annoyed as I havent even had chance to listen to my music yet and ive spent alot of money on it.
    Any one have any ideas please, any other Video users had a similar problem after the firmware update?
    Thanks

    The link works for me. However, here's the post.
    iTunes7 & 5th gen iPod updating - is this possible solution? (winXP)
    Posted: 14-Sep-2006 03:30
    Reply Email
    Downloaded iTunes 7 and you've gone through the 5 R's until your red in the face?
    * This probable solution 'stumbled upon' using a 60GB video. I have no idea if the process will work the same for nano. But if your desperate and have backed up your library... full steam ahead.
    If you've noticed that your iPod does not show up in My Computer, but shows up in iTunes, and the new Update or Restore option within iTunes (Summary tab of a recognized iPod) doesn't work (choosing 'Update' gives you error 1417 and 'Restore' gives you error 1418 - whatever they mean) then give this a try:
    1. Restart your computer - just to make sure we're all on the same page
    2. Start up/Load iTunes
    3. Connect your iPod to your computer - it may take a little time for iTunes to connect to your device
    4. When the dialogue box pops up telling you that a new version of firmware (ver. 1.2) is available choose: INSTALL
    5. As iTunes shows you a progressive bar of 'installing' (the bar scrolls across again and again) use the "Safely Remove Hardware" option in your taskbar and stop "Apple iPod USB Device". The computer will then tell you that the device can now be removed
    6. "Installing" continues... plug in/connect iPod again. The "Install" continues like nothing's happened. Weird, huh?
    7. Apple logo and Update status bar should now appear on your dimmed iPod screen (because of no backlight)
    8. At this point, dialogue box pops up on computer to tell you that updating continues
    9. "Do Not Disconnect" symbol will then show on your iPod
    10. Process finishes after a time, and now the Summary tab says the iPod has been updated.
    HA!!! If this is all that troubles you - HUZZAH! And I hope this helped.
    Now that we've come this far... I've found that when I normally open iTunes and plug in my iPod to aunto-sync, I now get ERROR (-50) -> Mac needs to get a database online or something to tell me what these 'errors' mean so I don't freak out when I get one...
    1. Go BACK to the Summary tab or your recognized deive in iTunes. Now choose RESTORE. Make sure whatever is on your iPod can be replaced
    2. This part takes time
    3. Computer will pop with dialogue box saying that iPod is restored and being changed to factory settings
    4. Prompt then pops up for you to name your little iPod. At this stage you can choose to 'Auto-sync songs and vids when connected' or 'Auto-sync photos' and from which directory. It's up to you.
    5. iTunes will then thank you for registering your iPod. From this point, the files are copied to your device. Depending on how large your library is affects how long this process takes.

  • 30 GB video iPod doesn't show up on my new Dual Core G5...help!

    Hello
    I'm trying to connect my 30GB video iPod to my new Dual Core 2.0 GHz G5, but nothing comes up on the desktop or iTunes. The icon on the iPod just shows the charging symbol...
    this G5 is NOT connected to the Internet, however I just updated the iPod software on another computer...I tried bringing over the latest iPod Updater from the other computer, but this doesn't work either...
    Is there anything I can do to get this to work?!
    Thank you

    Chris,
    Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to your computer...

  • TS2289 Ever since the new update in iMovie all my audio seems to be there ,but when I get in the middle of the video the audio is off. Help?

    Ever since the new update in iMovie all my audio seems to be there ,but when I get in the middle of the video the audio is off. Help?

    I think the problem is that the iPod got set to Manually manage music and videos.  It needs to be set up for automatic syncing again.  Just unchecking that Manually manage music and videos setting does not do it.
    In iTunes 12, select the iPod in iTunes (using the device button), so that you see the iPod's "management" screen.  In the sidebar (along left side of screen), there are two headings (Settings and On My Device).  Under Settings, click on Music.  To the right, you see the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box at the top for Sync Music.  That turns ON automatic syncing for music.  Below that, choose the option to sync Entire music library (assuming your music library fits completely on your iPod).  Otherwise, you can choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres and make your selections below.  Then click Apply.

  • Video ipod update Freeze

    having just installed the updated software for my video ipod,
    when playing movies the picture freezes after 30 seconds or so
    and then plays without sound! I have tried to reset numerous times but it does not help. music and picture files are fine though.

    If you don't want to wade through all the responses, I'm copying here an extract of the answer I gave in that thread:
    For those people like me who don't have firmware 1.0, I've modified the procedure a bit to suit our purpose. Here's what needs to be done for downgrading to firmware 1.0 without losing any data for new iPods that only come with firmware 1.1 Installation CD:
    -Connect your iPod to your computer, ensures its updated via iTunes, then disconnect it from PC and exit iTunes
    - Download iPodSetup 2005-11-17 here:
    http://appldnld.m7z.net/content.info.apple.com/iPod/ww/win/061-2225.20051128.PDW nw/iPodSetup.exe
    - Download iPodWizard here:
    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=153441
    (download the release, top link of the two)
    - Uninstall iPod for Windows 2006-1-10 and reboot
    - Install iPodSetup 2005-11-17
    -Connect your iPod to PC, make sure iTunes is not running
    -Launch iPodWizard.
    -In the top left, click "Open Updater"
    -Locate the iPod Updater.exe located in a sub-folder where you just installed iPodSetup 2005-11-17
    -In the "Firmware:" drop down menu, select "5th Generation iPod (v.13.6.0)"
    -Click "Load" just to the right of the drop down menu
    -In the iPodWizard Essentials box on the right, it should say "Found 1 iPod drives:"
    -Click "Downgrade Firmware". I'ts very quick.
    -Close the iPodWizard
    -Again, make sure iTunes is not running
    -From your Start menu, run iPod Updater 2005-11-17 and click "Update", not "Restore"
    -Once the update is completed (it takes a few minutes), exit the iPod Updater and run it again to view the new firmware number. It should read:
    "Software Version: 1.0 (up to date)"
    -Launch iTunes. A pop up window will ask you if you want to download the new software version 1.1. Tick the box "Do not ask me again" and click "CANCEL"

  • New 80 gig Video iPod and Handbrake problems

    I just purchased a new 80 gig Video iPod. I took one of my DVD movies that I own and used Mac The Ripper and DVD2One to get it onto my Powerbooks Hard Drive. I then used Instant Handbrake to make it iPod ready. It loaded fine into iTunes 7 (with the newest updates) and also played fine from within iTunes. When I went to sync it up with my new iPod iTunes gave me a message stating that this movie is not the correct format for this iPod. So I then tried using the full version Handbrake and got the same message. I know that either of these should work because I set a friend up with these same programs and we put his movies onto his 5th Gen 60 gig iPod without any problems. However, I researched iPod video conversions for the new iPods on the Apple website here and learned that there is a feature in iTunes 7 under advanced, when you highlight a video, you can go under Advanced and click on Convert Selection for iPod. Is this something that I'm going to have to do everytime, or does someone know an easier way to put MY DVDs into iTunes for my new 5th Gen 80 gig Video iPod? Please help because this process takes waaaaaaayyyyyyy tooooooo long!

    It all depends on what your target settings were and whether or not you were attempting to incorporate Baseline LC Profile features into your movie. Basically, if you use the H.264 codec at VGA resolutions or with video data rates which exceed 768 kbps or wish to include chaptering, then you will have to use QT Pro v7.1.3/iTunes 7 conversion (or the latest version of ffmpegX or ViddyUp!) to create an LC iPod compatible file. (MPEG Streamclip and probably HandBrake programmers are still working on their LC upgrades.)
