OS 10.4.11 won't open IPod Mini

I connected my IPod Mini to my Mac OS 10.4.11 Powerbook, and ITunes opened, and the IPod screen was in Do Not Disconnect mode, but there were no IPod icons in the source , and no downloading was taking place. I am running ITunes 9.0.2. Thanks for any help.

Ah, I saw this earlier and wondered if it might be SDHC.
Some SD readers can't read the silly new SDHC format...

Another thing to try is if you can connect your Phone to the Mac, open up Image Capture APP and see if that recognizes it.

My iphoto library was opened remotely on a computer using a newer operating system. Now it won't open on mine!

My iphoto library was opened remotely via sharing on a computer using a newer (10.7) operating system. Now it won't open on mine (10.6). It says it needs a newwer version of iphoto, and I want this computer to stay at 10.6 for compatability with other programs. How can I access my photos?

When the library was opened you were warned this would happen.
You can restore your Library from your back up.
You can try revert the Library to the earlier version using iPhoto Library Manager
Or you upgrade to the same version.

Synch not working, ITunes won't recognize ipod mini

With a new pc, my mini is no longer recognized by my itunes set up, very annoying. Ipod is working, but now "locked" to old setting, won't reset or resynch with each charge.
Have tried replugging in, flicking "hold" toggle, holding down select button, all to no avail. In "file" section, where I once was able to select "synch," it is no longer available (with light lettering).
When I run diagnostic, screen reads "no ipod detected," even though mini is plugged in.
This Itunes also locked up a month ago, and started gradually wiping out songs I had previously on my ipod.
Any help in this area would be appreciated. I'm considering heading to the Apple store, but don't know if they'll be able to help, and the support on the Itunes site is fairly poor.
Help?

I'm having the same problem.
"Updated" to iTunes 8.0. Genius is working in iTunes on my first generation Mac Mini, but my first generation iPod mini is no longer showing up or syncing.

Vista won't install Ipod Mini - PLEASE HELP!!

Latest version of Itunes 7.4.2 has been installed, Windows Vista has located Ipod mini in "other devices" in "Device Manager", but it won't install the Ipod. I've reinstalled Itunes three times and searched the Windows Vista disk and various internet forums, but with no luck.
I'm on the verge of selling the ipod - any advice would be welcome.
Thanks

I suggest either getting a Mac or going back to Windows XP because Vista is known to have these problems.

ITunes won't open, IPod won't eject

My mother asked me to unplug her iPod when I got home from work today, so I came to the computer to do so, but iTunes wasn't open. Which was a little strange, because iTunes was open last night, and I always leave it on. She says she didn't do anything to the PC. But you never know.
I tried to open iTunes, but it wouldn't come up. iTunes, iTunes Helper, and iPod Service were all showing up in the task manager, but no program was coming up that could be used. I closed down all unnecessary programs, cleared my caches, prefetch, etc. Tried to open ITunes again. No luck.
Then I did something that, in hindsight, was probably really stupid. I unplugged the iPod. While it still said "do not disconnect." Nothing happened. I plugged it back in, and tried to open iTunes again. Nada.
Then I restarted my computer. And Windows (XP) never finished loading up. So I unplugged the iPod again, restarted, and Windows did come up. I plugged the iPod back in, and iTunes came up automatically. But the iPod was not being recognized.
I closed iTunes and tried to "safely remove hardware" (should have done that to start with,) but I just got an error that the device could not be stopped. Now I still can't open iTunes (even though it's showing in the task manager), and the iPod still says don't disconnect. (It's still plugged in now, though as I said, I unplugged it twice for a few seconds.) A device is showing up in my computer, but I can't access or do anything with/to it - attempting to do so freezes the 'my computer' window.
Have I ruined this thing? What can I do to resolve this issue? I'm using one of the newer 30 gig iPods, and the latest version of iTunes, with Windows XP.
Never had any problems before. I think the power may have flickered off today and restarted the computer, which may have caused some problem or other. Other than that, I don't know much of anything else.

Ahh, it seems that resetting the ipod fixed the problem. Carry on.

External Power adapter won't charge iPod Mini 2nd Gen

I just bought a 3rd party external power adapter and car charge cable for my iPod mind 2nd gen. Neither one seems to work. The only way I can charge it is via my USB connection. Should 3rd party adapters work or do I need a special one? Should there be an icon on the screen if the adapter is working? Thanks for any help.

Try an SMC reset:

Premiere Elements 11 won't open

Installed Premiere Elements 11 but it won't open. Have uninstalled and reinstalled but still no luck.

First, thank you for that information.
Now, you say:
I ran the Update Driver and it said it is up to date. I installed it on another computer that is older and it works ok...still won;t open on mine
I would first go to the Intel Web site, and manually check for a more recent update. 2011 is a very long time ago. I find that the OS's driver update utility, or any driver utility, will likely be very out of date. For most programs, that does not usually matter much, but PrE really needs to interface VERY critically with that video driver.
If you have a Dell, Lenovo, HP, or other major mfgr's. computer, I would also check their Web site, as some of those companies will rewrap the video drivers for their specific version of the hardware and their specific version of the OS.
As for PrE running on one computer, but not the other, I would look closely to see if those two computers have the exact same video card, and video driver. If they do, then I would check to see if they each have the exact same Windows updates and hot-fixes applied. Even simple OS updates CAN render the video driver obsolete. That is why the major video chip companies update their drivers so very often. Intel, while making good chips, has not been nearly as good with driver support, as nVidia, or AMD/ATI. As mentioned above, the video driver is not so important for general computing (Intel's target), but programs, such as PrE, extreme games, or 3D work, require much more from the video driver - other programs will usually still run pretty well, but not programs, like PrE.
Good luck, and hope that Intel has a newer driver for you, that solves your issue.

My IPod apps won't open. So I looked it up, and it said to sync the apps to itunes, i tried this, but when i try to sync, the apps won't show up on Itunes. It keeps saying "0 apps". What do i do?

Ever since yesterday, my Ipod apps won't open properly. I googled it, and couldn't find anything accurate. So i deleted all of the apps, and re-downloaded them. Now they're doing it again. When i tap on it, it looks like it wants to open, but then it goes back to the main menu. I googled it again, and got an answer saying to go to Itunes, uncheck the "sync apps" box, and sync. Then after that, recheck the box, and sync again. Many people said this worked, but it didn't for me. Also whenI go to sync my apps, they don't show up in Itunes. How do I get them to show up in Itunes?

I had the same issue. After searching around online I found out that you can try downloading another app (it can be any app) onto your ipod. After it finishes downloading see if your other apps open. You don't even have to keep the new app. Just see if your other ones work and you can delete the new one. That should work. If not, try to hard reset it. Here is another apple support link for steps on hard reseting it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430).

My 4th Gen iPod Touch won't open up the apps I've downloaded. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app and it seems to only be a temporary fix. The reset and reboot didn't work either. Help would be appreciated.

In more specific terms. The apps that came on the iPod like the weather and maps and whatnot have been working flawlessly. It's just when I download an app and then disconnect from wifi it's almost like I'm on a timer until the app stops working. It acts like it wants to open, the screen flashes black then resets to the home pages. I've tried all of the basic fixes, rebooting, reseting, uninstalling then reinstalling. But like in my...long...question, the reinstalling option only seems to be a temporary fix. I just recently downloaded the 5.1.1 udate (I think that's what it was) does that have anything to do with it, or am I just derpy when it comes to iPods?

Then try a restore.

If on a computer browser you go to icloud.com and sing in are you notes there? If so get them off.
Next,
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iCloud and delete the iCloud account from the iPod,. Note this does not delete the account, only deletes it from the iPod. Then sign back in.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Backup and then restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

ITunes won't open when iPod is connected

Hello,
I tried syncing my 3rd Generation Ipod Nano like I always do, via a dock connector and my laptop. But when I plugged it in it at first wasn't being recognized by iTunes (10), so I closed the program to see if a reboot of the program would solve the problem, and now iTunes just won't open while my iPod is plugged in to my laptop! Once I unplug though, iTunes pops back up!!
More information: It looks like my laptop may not be recognizing the USB Port that I plugged my dock connector in to. I don't get that symbol in the Notification Area that something is plugged in to a USB Port. I've tried other ones though, same problem.
I've also had to unplug my iPod from the connector without ejecting it (as iTunes wasn't recognizing the device, so I couldn't) will this damage my iPod?

Hello,
Please have a read

My ipod won't open the apps when i click on them?

My ipod won't open the apps when i click on them, i've restarted my ipod multiple of time, closed everything that's open, and they are still not working, but i get the notifications through, please help!

Try downloading and installing another free app from the App Store. This has resolved the issue for a number of users. Otherwise, you may need to try and restore your iPod from a previous backup via iTunes.
