Problem with ipod function

the ipod function on my ipad fails to start up... I press the button the screen comes up for a second or two and then disappears. When the Ipad is connected to my computer, I can see my music and podcasts that I've loaded into the iPad on my computer's itunes

Hello,
The iPod app may be frozen...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPad for a few seconds until a red slider appears, then press and hold the Home button until the application quits.
If that doesn't help, try resetting your iPad.Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    Problems with ipod connection.
    I have problems to connect my ipod to computer windows 7.
    When I connect I get the following error:
    "We encountered an ipod, but could not be identified correctly. Disconnect and reconnect the ipod and try again."
    And it recognizes the ipod when trying to go play music or videos make me the following error:
    "Error while trying to copy on disk. The device is not connected."
    I've uninstalled all apple applications and re-installing, as I formatted the ipod and continues to set the same error.
    What else can I do?

  • Problems with Ipod Touch

    Problems with iPod Touch.
    Hi, I bought an ipod touch in Colombia a couple of months ago but lost the invoice, I tried using it but everytime I connect the iPod to the computer, it restarts over and over again, I've tried all the recommendations show in the Apple support site, but no method has proved the question is, I can take this ipod to a Mac store in the U.S. for repair or change.
    I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it.
    Thanks in advance for your quick response

    You should be able to go to the USA for warrantee service. If you purchased at an Apple store you should be able to go to your account in iTunes and see the purchase. I am confused by your statement:
    "I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it."
    If you go to the Venezuela apple website you can see if/where there are Apple stores.

  • Error thread java : problem with the function "resume 0x***"  (forum sun)

    One problem with the function of jdb occured when I tried to use it to
    pilot the processor with differents threads. In fact, I use a simple example with 2 threads.
    I stop the two threads with two breakpoint, and I want to resume one or the other (with the function "resume 0x****"), the one wich I resumed stop again on the breackpoint and I decide again to resume one or the other. All of that to obtain a tree of execution.
    I give you the code of the class and the code of jdb.
    CLASS: (it's just a object Room with a variable degre that I increment and decrement with two threads increase and decrease)
    public class Test{
         public static void main(String[] args){
              Room r = new Room();
              decrease de = new decrease(r);
              increase in = new increase(r);
              de.start();
              in.start();

    PS: I tried many other examples with other class and other kind of breakpoints, but, in any cases, on thread doesn't manage to resume. When I try with general resume (no specification of the thread), It works but it isn't interresting for me because I want to decide wich thread continue his execution.

  • Problem with 'GetType' Function calling in MSVC++

    Hello
    I have problem with the function in TestStand API .
    When I call the function " GetType " with the following statements in
    a DLL called from TestStand (NI) implemented in MS VC ++
    , it does not work and this exception is caught by the ONLY ' try catch ' block
    to catch exceptions in TestStand API giving the error message
    " Unexpected operating system error".
    VARIANT_BOOL ok;
    VARIANT_BOOL hi;
    BSTR Name;
    PropertyObject *property = (*step_)->AsPropertyObject();
    ( *step_ is a STEP Object of type Step* *step_ )
    property = property->GetPropertyObject( "TS.SData", 0);
    enum TS:ropertyValueTypes i = property->GetType( "" , 0 , &hi , &ok
    , &Name);//Problem
    Please solve my problem.
    You can email me at [email protected]
    Thankyou very much.
    Best regards
    Fahad Ejaz

    Hello,
    The problem is that the Name is not initialized (the BSTR is defined as OLECHAR*). Thus, replace the
    BSTR Name;
    declaration with the following lines:
    char buf[1024];
    BSTR Name = _bstr_t(buf);
    This should solve the problem.

  • Performance problem with OLE_FLUSH_CALL function module

    Hello Everyone,
    I am facing problem with OLE_FLUSH_CALL function module (execution is taking long time which is going to be dump error).
    Could you please help me in knowing solution for this problem?
    Thanking you in advance.
    Srinivas

    Hi Srinivas,
    the OLE_FLUSH_CALL does an RFC from ABAP backend to frontend UI. So high execution time could result from high network time, for example latency between UI and backend server.
    How many UI interaction steps did you measure for the trace above? Ideally, there should only be one OLE_FLUSH_CALL per user interaction step. If its more, the application is not written in an optimized way.

  • For users having problems with Mail functionality...

    Hello! I have been having problems with Mail functionality as well, so, I took a few steps to see if I could solve the problem on my own.
    My problems were:
    Mail would freeze when sending mail, or, when I pressed quit, it would freeze.
    If I toggled between inboxes too much it would freeze up.
    Even after trying the many techniques others offered on this board, Mail still froze up. So.. here's what I did:
    1.) Turn off the auto-retrieve mail function in the preferences/general menu. Set it to a manual check. Just check it yourself every once in awhile. It may not be as convenient, but it works, trust me.
    2.) Under the fonts and colors menu, set all three fonts to the SAME font (mines Century Schoolbook, but anything works) and turn off fixed-width font. Sometimes mail has a tough time decoding and working with texts, and causes it to freeze.
    3.) Clean our your main inbox! Place the emails that you want to keep, but don't need to be in your inbox in a new folder on your inbox bar (mines aptly named 'Saved Messages.' That way, when you open up Mail to your default account, it doesn't have 1,000+ messages to index. Also, try to keep the inboxes from having more than 100-200 messages per. It seems to frown on any more than that.
    After trying these three easy, steps, restart mail and see if things run smoother. I have had no problems since these changes, and mail runs a ton better. Plus you don't have to worry about deleting your library/mail folder anymore. Let me know if things work out so I can see if my theory is a universally proven thing. Thanks and good luck!
    iMac G5 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Good question. I have worked very little with IMAP other than as a testing device, so, on a daily routine I cannot say how it would function. However, I can only expect that by having the option to download all emails for offline viewing selected, you are right in it being a lag creator. Another suggestion would be, if you are running a single-computer setup, to have the account delete emails from the server after recieving them on your computer. Thus, you reduce the risk of repeat downloads or unnecessary build-up on the server end. DO NOT select this option if you run multiple computer set ups on one AppleMail account system or you will cause some discrepancies and/or data loss from system to system. Or, if you have emails redirected from a seperate server to Mail (i.e. I redirect mail from my university email account into Mail so that I don't have to go to the web-mail site to check it--> just like Gmail or Yahoo etc etc) you won't be able to check them from the web-based email system if you have the system delete them. Ok that sounded confusing. Solution: have the system remove emails from the server after a week (or any period of time, just not immediately) so that, in the off-chance you need to use the online system, you will have access, and will give you a chance to check the emails on other systems without a threat of data corruption (by corruption i mean that frustrating feeling you get when you can't find that super important email that was in your inbox just 10 seconds ago on your desktop etc.)
    I will see if I can learn anything more about IMAP Ernie. Its definitley the biggest problem source for Mail, POP and .Mac being simple and functional as long as you don't play with the settings too much. As far as the issue of Offline viewing goes, try turning it off and seeing how Mail functions.
    BEFORE you turn it off, however, I recommend saving all of your emails in your inbox as a text file or something so, in case the server burps and has a brain flatuence, you don't lose anything. Been there, done that, thrown the books against the wall in a frustrated rage.
    My only reserve about the Offline Viewing is whether or not Mail will, when you click "recieve mail," have to re-download the emails from the server each time. If so, then it may end up taking longer and lagging more. The issue here is obviously minimizing the amount of activity between Mail and the email server without jeapordizing information on the server or multiple Mail programs on the same account. When we can find that balance, I think Mail's potential will be realized. Keep the questions coming.

  • Problem with BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE function module

    I know lot of posts have been done about problems with this function module. However I was not able to find the answer to my problem. Hence posting a new thread
    I have the following code which changes the reason rejection (if required to 'ZF') and also updates the sales order quantity.
    The code works absolutely fine as long as the PGI date of the order item is either today or in the future. However if the PGI date of the order item is in the past. I get an error in the t_return table with error type 'E' saying 'PGI date is in the past hence could not update the item'.
    If I try to update the same order quantity in VA02 for the item with PGI date in the past it does so without any problem.
    Can someone please suggest what the problem might be. Or if there is some other way I can update the quantity. (I dont want to use BDC)

    Hello i have a problem with onfocus function on ipad. I am trying to bring my cursor on a text box on a button click. It works fine with safari web browser but not on ipad. Need a solution.

    I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
    Disk Utility can verify  my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
    I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
    I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
    I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
    Good luck!

    Since installing the iOS4 in my iPod 2nd Gen I had many problems, the OS makes the iPod slower, the auto-lock function doesn't work, once I tell it to auto-lock after 1 minute, it doesn't, it just stays on all day, I have to do it several times and lock it manually so it stays like that.
    I have also had problems with syncing music, since it doesn't play the songs, but is not a constant thing, some days are one songs, some another and is not always the same song.
    Many Apps are also failing but that goes to the App developer.

    That is all fine and good except Apple pushed it 2nd gen owners as a supposed upgrade. Had we been given a disclaimer stating that it was going to half break most of our apps, we naturally would have declined the upgrade.
    For the record, G2 touches did not get multitasking. All we got Folders and access to ibooks, along with a few minor tweaks, here and there. There is absolutely no excuse for how terribly slow ibooks renders PDFs, considering Looksee did a much faster and better job of it on my G1 touch.
    All I really cared about was folders. It would be nice if Apple could tweak IOS4 for G2 ipods to allow for folders without decimating our Ram. If they can't then give us a convenient way to get back to an OS that actually works properly.

  • Any ideas on problem with ipod and alpine cde-9881 car stereo

    I have an ipod 60gb v 1.2.1 and a new Alpine car stereo with Ipod connecting cable. When connected, the stereo message reads IPod searching. It never assumes control of ipod,or quits searching. I have reset and restored my ipod, had the apple geek at genius bar check it out. My ipod does not play on the alpine ipod ready stereo in my husband's car, nor the stereos in Car Toys. My husband's 30 gb ipod plays on the stereo in his car AND my car. Help! Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem? Alpine is telling me it could be a software problem with my ipod, and to revert to an earlier version of itunes. But my husband's ipod works in my car. So I did a restore using his computer and itunes....no luck. am interested in any ideas on a possible solution!!
    Thanks in advance

    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.

  • Sync problems with ipod color

    Hi I'm having problems copying music onto my ipod. I am running iTunes 5 with the latest iPod software (1.2 from ipod updater 2005-09-23) on a windows XP platform with Service pack 2. My iPod is connected to my computer through USB 2.0.
    When I plug my ipod to my computer, everything works fine, it gets recognized, I see the "do not disconnect" icon on the ipod and it starts syncing but the problem is, way before it finishes tranfering the songs, my ipod comes back to the main menu. I can read in iTunes that the transfer is complete and that it's ok to disconnect my ipod, even though it was NOT complete!
    This really bugs me because I can't put all my songs onto my ipod and have to disconnect/reconnect it all the time to actually put my songs in it. What can I do to keep the transfer "alive" ?? please someone help me.

    Hi,
    I have the same type of problem with my iPod 20GB color running XP Home SP2. This happens when I import a large number of songs (over 100 or so) from my CD's in iTunes at one time. It will disconnect and then restart the transfer over again several times. I figured out that when your iPod is actually connected and doing the transfer, if you right click on the iPod (example: Joe Smiths iPod) in the iTunes left side menu, and click on "update" every 40 or 50 songs or so it will transfer everything without disconnecting. I discovered this yesterday while transferring about 270 songs to my iPod after it tried to automatically do it about three times. I don't know if this is the "real" fix for this but it worked for me. The problem doesn't appear to happen with a couple of CD's worth of songs.
    Good luck!
