Power Surge w/computer 5th Generation - HELP!
I've now connectd my IPOD into my computer and get the power surge message. I've reassigned the ports from the back and the front. I've even reset the entire Ipod...do I need to reinstall Itunes or what is the deal? I cannot add any more songs. Thanks.
If you dried it is a sealed container with uncooked rice for a week and periodically changed the rice and it does not work it is dead.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for a 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

You can do it at an Apple store by making an appointment:

In the process of saving a file a power surge rebooted computer. Any chance of recovering file?
In the process of saving a file a power surge rebooted computer. Any chance of recovering file?
Have a look at the sample script below. The "while" loop waits for the specified number of milliseconds, then reads the contents of a directory and processes every individual file in the directory. In my example, it just prints the file path to the console. You would replace this part with your Open / Save as / Move sequence.
For more file system commands, refer to Adobe's Javascript Tools Guide, "File object functions".
var stop = false;
while( stop==false ) {
// Wait for 20.000 ms
$.sleep(20000);
var fld = new Folder("c:/incoming");
var filesInFld = fld.getFiles("*.fm");
for(var f=0; f < filesInFld.length; f++) {
// process the individual file
$.writeln(filesInFld[f]);
// Exit the loop after 19:00
var time = new Date();
if( time.getHours() > 19 ) stop = true; -
Can you safely power off a 5th generation AirPort and an attached disk drive without losing data?
I'd like to just be able to shut it down by tripping off the power strip the disk and airport are attached to with my toe so they're not sucking down power at night or when I'm at work. I wouldn't mind a sequence of power down the computers on the net first and then 'toeing off' the AirPort+disk.
I'm just wondering how quickly between the time that I power off the mac that the airport would flush all of its buffers. -
Where can I find a power supply for 2nd - 5th Generation Airport Extreme?
I have an Airport Extreme that needs a power supply and cord. Where can I purchase one? Is this something Apple sells separately? Or, if someone could supply the part numbef for their power supply that could aid in my search, that would be great. I have a 4th generation AirPort Extreme that needs one. Thanks!

I'm in Central America, a friend was using his MacBook when the power surged, the computer was plugged in at the time. The next time he went to turn it on, only the apple icon was present on the screen. Nothing else will come up. He has tried to take the battery off and put it back in, but it didn't help anything. Any suggestions will be helpful on this one. Is there another way to reset the computer while it is off? Thanks for your answers.
It sounds like your system may have been corrupted by not being shut down properly. You can try repairing it with Disk Utility, though if that doesn't work you may need to try a stronger tool such as Diskwarrior unless you elect to just do an archive and install (keeping users and preferences - make sure you select that).
Boot from the installer disk, select language if applicable, choose utilities, run Disk Utility and verify (and repair if necessary) the drive. You can verify a drive from DU on your main drive while booted but I have found this can result in incorrect reporting of errors. To repair your drive you have to run it from a drive other than the boot drive anyway.

[Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751]
From BDaqua (couldn't have said it better):
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer (Edit: Do not use this disc if it is not the same general version as what you have currently on your computer, e.g. use a Tiger disc for a Tiger drive, not a Panther disc), then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
If you don't have an installer disc available you can try effecting repairs using [fsk in Single User Mode|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214].

I have my ipod nano 5th generation and when i plugged to my computer it is recognized but i cant do anything. On the ipod all i can see is a blackscreen with the apple sign! How can i fix this?
Howdy Lumagofe,
I was thinking that you may need to reset the iPod Nano, outlined here How to reset iPod http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1320.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down button simultaneously for at least eight seconds or until the Apple logo appears. You may need to repeat this step.
If the above step did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.
If that doesn't quite get the iPod going again, then it will need to be restored. Use this article to help with that Restoring iPod to factory settings http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339.
All the very best,

Please Help Me. iPod Touch 5th generation will not download music from itunes
My son has an IPod touch 5th generation that he got for Christmas (3 months old :(! All of a sudden if he is on iTunes and buys a song it won't download. It will say its already been purchased but its not in downloads. I have soft reset and now finally did the erase all data and settings. When it started up and i signed into icloud everything started downloading but the music. If I go into the iTunes app and hit purchased music I can see all the music but when I go to hit specific artists it sits and loads (circle is circling) and won't show me the individual song titles. I'm sick to my stomach that the iPod is not fixable because I can't afford to buy my son a new one and I haven't finished paying this one off. Can anyone help me please? I can add music from iTunes on my computer directly to the iPod when plugged in. So I am assuming this means something is wrong with iPod. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
First, don't obsess over it. If, in fact, there is something wrong with the iPod, it's still in warranty. Now, I don't know for certain what will fix this for you but here are some suggestions, beginning with one that's quick and easy.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
My computer says "Power Surge in Power Hub" when My iPod touch is plugged in. How can I fix this?
I have had an iPod Touch 5th Generation for a few months now. I recently updated to iOS 7. Now, when I plug it into a computer it says "Power Surge in Power Hub". It haas never done this before and when I plug it into a different computer, the same message comes up. How can I fix this?
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use. Your error message is a symptom of a bad cable
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Computer Crash, Power Surge USB
Downloaded 7.0.2 and iPod Shuffle Update, then put in my new iPod Shuffle 2nd Generation - worked at first, but next time I tried to plug in the USB port, the whole computer crashed. Tried it on another computer with Windows XP and got message that USB port was experiencing Power Surge.
Now every time I try to plug in my new iPod Shuffle, my computer shuts off completely.

Help - My 5th Generation Ipod not recognised by ITunes but 1st Gen Ipod is!
Can anyone help? This is driving me mad!
I recently purchased a 5th Generation 80gb Ipod. Before installing to my PC I downloaded the latest 7.2 version of ITunes together with quicktime. However whenever I plug my new Ipod in, nothing happens other than the 'Found New Hardware Wizard' appearing in XP asking for the driver to be installed and the Ipod Charging/displaying that it is fully charged.
I have spent hours going through the apple site and following their suggestions on this and have done the following:
Re-started the iPod service
Uninstalled and re-installed ITunes 7.2 (at least 5 times now!)
Deleted all my temporary folders and temp internet folders and cleared cookies, files, etc
Ran Windows Install Cleanup Utility to clean up any leftover installer files
Tried the Ipod in all of my USB 1 & 2 ports (My MESH PC is less than a year old)
I then contacted Apple Support who suggested I try my Ipod on another computer and if it didn't work to return it to them. So I duly installed iTunes (7.2) on my laptop at work and hey presto my Ipod was recognised and I was able to download a few tunes.
I glean from this that there can't be a fault with the Ipod itself??
Back at home I re- tried all of the things above and then after still no joy I connected my old 1st generation ipod to my pc and after some time ( at least 5 minutes) iTunes recognised the old ipod and syncronised. Using the same USB Port and the same cable I plugged in the new Ipod but still nothing happened other than being asked to install the driver once again!
Now all would be fine if I kept my music collection on my work laptop but unfortunately this is not possible and I could even get into serious trouble for having iTunes on there.
If anyone has any suggestions I would be really grateful as £200+ is a lot of money to pay for something that does not work!The "driver" never was available from Apple. The driver files that Windows uses to communicate with an iPod are standard Windows OS drivers for a USB Mass Storage Device. If Windows cannot/does not recognize your iPod at all, not even at the driver level, it's likely an OS issue, unless the iPod fails to work on another computer as well. At that point you'd been dealing with a bad cable or bad iPod. Since another iPod works with the same cable, then it should be fine.

Hello,
I recently tried downloading the IOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it was almost done the computer said there was an error. Right after that, the iPod shut down completely and now it's on recovery mode. I plugged it in and it said that I had to restore it and update it so I could use it again but it doesn't let me. What can I do? I even did a backup before the update.
I really need help.What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
Without knowing that:

I use an iPod nano 5th generation. I have had it for about two years now and after about one year, I plugged in my iPod into my computer to sync more music. Here is the problem: The tab where you go to sync music to your iPod and shows the list of artists and songs you want to sync to the iPod, the tab I can get to but the list of songs and artists does not show up and the only way I can sync music to my iPod is to basically wipe my iPod and start from scratch. Obviously, I do not want to do that because I do not have all the songs in my library that I have on my iPod. I have uninstalled iTunes and then re-installed it, but it did not work and I do not know what else to do. I would really appreciate helpful guidance to get it fixed if it can be fixed. Thanks in advance
