Public thanks to user "Jeff Bryan" for post on itunes not detecting  ipod

after several hours of going in circles on apple's ipod support page finding no answers i came across a post by jeff that at least made my ipod semi-functional again. my only question to apple is why do other ipod users have to provide product support? and why is the advice he gave more complete than apples own web page? i have never been a big fan of apples/macs but the ipod seemed like a neat gadget so i took a chance and got one for my girlfriend. it has been nothing but problems and is always in need of some upgrade, reset, or bizzare combination of pressing buttons just to keep it running. i later purchased 3 sansas for other members of my family and they have yet to have a problem. i guess this level of maintanance is ok if you like to spend all of your time tweaking your tech toys but is completely unacceptable for a casual user that just wants to listen to music. i dont think i will be buying any more apple products.
summary of problem:
ipod nano worked for while (needed a reset about every two months and locked up several times requiring reload of firmware)
one day itunes could not find ipod. no config changes were made to the host computer
ipod still showed up in windows as f: drive (usb mass storage device)
tried all troubleshooting tricks on page: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93716
loaded itunes 7.0.2.16
ran diagnostics and got green light for ipod connection status but still not showing up in itunes
itunes will only find the ipod if i put it in disk mode according to jeffs advice in link below. once disconnected, i have to put it back in disk mode for itunes to find it again
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=720510&tstart=30
if anybody has any other advice on getting this thing to function properly, it would be greatly appreciated.

First of all, thanks for the thanks!! : )
Did you follow the advice in some of the other links, like changing the iPod's assigned drive letter, or disabling fast user switching?
When I was a Windows user, I did both these things and I also had disk use enabled permanently (you can do this via the summary screen) as I found it helped with connection issues. The only downside with this is that you must manually eject the iPod after use (even with auto sync selected).
"my only question to apple is why do other ipod users have to provide product support?"
As well as these forums there's a wealth of Apple articles, but it's knowing where to look. Every other manufacturer has support forums too.
With the number of knowledgeable people who post here, you're more likely to get a good answer here than anywhere else. As long as you avoid the one or two folks who post complete nonsense!!
Don't suppose the iPod is still under warranty?

  • [win 8] itunes not detecting iphone in DFU mode for restore/recovery

    Here is the story:
    Had my iphone 6 plus for about a month now. Today I hooked it up to my windows 8 machine and itunes (both fully updated to latest versions).
    Phone was detected fine, so I ran a full sync and backup to my local machine with itunes. No problem its all good.
    Then went to the updates section and it said I had a new one (8.1.2 or whatever I cant remember)
    I ran it, in itunes while the device was connected.
    It downloaded and was going through the install process... then the screen on my phone went to the "connecting to itunes" graphic (with the cord and the itunes app icon). Thats where it sat.
    So now it no longer appeared as a device in itunes either.
    OK... went to the forums.
    1) Tried all the reboots and uninstalls/reinstalls
    2) Tried booting and connecting in "Recovery mode" (default now as all I see is that connecting screen)
    3) Tried booting and connecting in DFU mode
    Neither mode was detecting the device with itunes but I am getting the chimes of connection for windows itself.
    I do see the device in my windows system hardware under "unspecified" as "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver" (and when i view details its model shows either Recovery or DFU mode depending on how I booted the device)
    So here I am... stuck with a phone in either DFU mode OR recovery mode on a botched ios update and itunes wont detect it on windows 8.x
    What can I do ?
    Looking for some creative or outside the box ideas here. I just want a reset and restore of the backup I made on local itunes today.
    If I can get the device back to even a factory reset, I am hoping itunes will detect it properly and can run a restore from it local storage.
    Really stuck and been on this for hours now.

    Hello joeldevil,
    I know you have tried uninstalling and a reinstall of iTunes, but have you checked out the additional troubleshooting steps to check the drivers to make sure that they are installed. There is also a section for what to do when your iPhone is in recovery mode and not seen in iTunes. One more thing you can try is to try your restore in another user.

  • User Exit/Validation for posting limit

    Hi Gurus,
    Client need check for specific cost elements for specific users for a particular amount.
    e.g.
    user: ABC can not post more than Rs. 25000/- for conveyance allowance.
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Vikas Malhotra

    Hello,
    If you are using  ECC 5.0 or above, and trying to restrict cash postings, you can put a limit for cash accounts at the following:
    IMG => Financial Accounting => Bank Accounting => Business Transactions => Cash Journal => Amount Limit.
    If you want to restrict the amounts for any other accounts, then you can write a validation in GGB0 (line item level) and assign this validation at OB28.
    Validation: If GL account = A or GL Account = B,
    and Amount = >25,000
    Throw Error.

  • User needs parking and posting facility but not to post doc parked by him

    Hi All,
    Please Let Me know whether it is possible or not
    Requirement : For Instance, we have two users user1 and user2.
    Both the users should have posting and parking facility. But they should not have the authorization of posting a document which was parked by them.
    i.e. If user 1 is parking a document he should not be able to post that particular document but he should be able to post the document which was parked by user2 and vice versa.
    Regards
    Karthik

    It was possible... take your basis people help... you can authorisation of parking document tcodes to one person and you can give authorisation for chaging, posting, deleting or rejecting parked document to another one...
    for document parking --> f-02, fb50, f-65  : only give authorisation to this tcodes the person for parking
    for parked document changes --> fv50, fbv0 to fbv6   only give authorisation to this tcodes the person for changing parked documents

  • User-friendly name for Panel Which Does Not Appear in the Extensions Menu

    We are developing various Extensions panels for CS5 using ActionScript.
    We only want a single Extension, our Main panel, to appear in the Windows>Extensions menu. Once that Panel is opened, it would open other extensions, as required.
    The problem is, that the only way to remove a Panel from the Extensions menu is to remove its "<menu/>" element from the manifest. However, if I do that, then when we call those other extensions from the Main extension, the titale diplaed in the Panel is the "ExtensionID" from the manifest, which is not user firendly (such as "com.mycopmany.mysystem.Employees.extension1"), when I only wanted "Employees" to be in the title.
    Any ideas what I can do?
    TIA,
    mlavie

    Harbs. - I have a follow-up question:
    Object(this.parent.parent.parent.parent) returns an Object of type com.adobe.csxs.stagemanager.ExtensionWindow
    "ExtensionWindow" is clearly a very useful object, but I can't find the SWC in which ii is deifned, and therefore can not create a routine which accepts as a paraemeter or returns a strongly type object of type ExtensionWindow. In addition, as it appears to be undocumented, the only way I can see which properties are available is to view tyhe result of "Object(this.parent.parent.parent.parent)" in the debugger.
    Any ideas where the SWC is - or where there is any documentation for this object?
    TIA,

  • User defined rule for missing triples

    Hi,
    i would like to know if there is a way to define a user defined rule for triples that are not contained in a model. With curly brace syntax it could be something like this:
    INSERT INTO mdsys.semr_validation_rb VALUES(
    'test_rule',
    '{?s ?p ?o. OPTIONAL{?s rdf:type ?t}}',
    't is null',
    '(?s <hasType> "false")',
    null);
    Unfortunately this is not working. Has anybody a suggestion to solve this problem with user defined rules?

    Hi,
    This is related to the following post.
    built-in primitives(noValue,remove) for user defined rules
    Note that there is something you need to pay a bit attention to.
    Say your original graph contains
    :John :fatherOf :Mary
    but not any type classification for :John (i.e. no match for {:John rdf:type ?t})
    Assume you add the following triple according to the rule you described
    (:John <hasType> "false")
    Now, what happens if :John is classified as a :Person (or :Parent, :Father),
    do you want to withdraw* :John <hasType> "false"?
    Thanks,

  • BDC Program for posting FI document

    Hi everyone!
    Anyone out there already made a BDC program for posting FI documents with this concept:
    User will upload a spreadsheet file with the line items per row
    User will input which TCODE user will use for posting
    BDC program will then post the document using the line items in the spreadsheet file
    I need to make a BDC program with that concept but having a hard time to think of a good algorithm to make my program very flexible.
    Thanks!

    you can use batch input program RFBIBL00 to pasrk document. Please check these links for more information.

    Have a processing routine defined for the specific Idocs that come into SAP.
    So, as and when the idocs are in, the routine triggers and you can codeappropriately in the routine for parking the idocs.

    BAPI For Parking FI Document
    Post FI Parked Documents
    You can use message type INVOIC, IDoc Type INVOIC01/02 with process code INVF (FM IDOC_INPUT_INVOIC_FI) for FBV1 transaction.
    See if there are any BAPI/FMs for parking an FI document.
    1.. Use INVOIC01 IDOC with INVF process code (This works for Vendor Line Items only). I read the documentation somewhere that, this would work even if the line items are > 999
    2.. BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST (This works for Vendor Line Items only)
    3.. BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST (Tax jurisdiction allocation not calculated properly)
    4.. BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST (No tax line items allowed for this BAPI)

  • Tips for when your webcam is not detected

    EDIT:  If you have recently upgraded to Windows 8 and are experiencing this issue please read this document.
    Here are some tips for resolving a webcam not detected problem.  I see this question get asked a lot so here are the steps you should take to resolve the issue.
    To begin you should make sure the device is being detected by Windows.  The following instructions are for Windows 7, but should be very similar for Windows Vista and Windows 8. 
    Option 1: Check Device Manager to make sure it is working properly.
    Click your Start button, type “Device Manager,” and press Enter.
    Once Device Manager loads click “View” and then “Show Hidden Devices.”
    Locate the “Imaging Devices” section.
    Note whether you see the webcam here.
    If the webcam is listed, right click it and verify that it is not “Disabled.”
    If webcam is listed and not disabled, move onto Option 2.  If the webcam is not listed you will move onto Option 4. 
    Option 2:   Allow Windows to Re-install the device.
    While still in Device Manager right click on your webcam and select “Uninstall”
    If prompted select “remove driver and driver package.”
    Reboot your notebook and allow Windows to attempt to reinstall the webcam.
    If Windows detects the webcam verify the functionality of the webcam.
    If Windows does not detect the webcam and install it move onto Option 3.
    Option 3:  Manually install the drivers for your webcam. 
    Use this website to determine your product/model number. 
    Visit the HP Support Page and use this product number to visit your product’s specific page.
    Go to “Drivers and Software” and locate the driver for your webcam.  NOTE: the drivers for the webcam are sometimes bundled with the YouCam software.
    Download and install this driver.
    Reboot the PC.
    Verify functionality. 
    Option 4:  Manually re-detecting the hardware.
    Disconnect all external devices.
    Shut down the notebook.
    Remove the battery and AC power.
    Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
    Reinstall the battery and AC power.  Then turn the notebook on.
    Once Windows is loaded go back to Device Manager.
    Selection “Action” and then “Scan for hardware changes.”
    If Device Manager detects the hardware allow it to install.
    If Device Manager does not detect the hardware see Option 5.
    Option 5: System Restore and System Recovery. 
    This is outlined very well in this document.  Note that any data that is not backed up prior to a recovery will be lost.
    Options 6: Repair or replacement.
    If none of these solutions have worked for you it is likely that you are experiencing a hardware failure.  It is possible to replace the webcam or reseat a loose ribbon cable.  However, this is one of the more difficult repairs on the notebook.  If you would like to attempt this repair you can visit your notebook’s support page and navigate to the “Manuals” section.  There is normally a “Maintenance and Service Guide” for the notebooks, this will cover the disassembly of the notebook.  You can then use HP Parts Surfer to locate the part for your notebook.
    If you do not wish to attempt a repair yourself you can inquire with HP about a repair.  For customers in the US/Canada you can call 1-800-474-6836.  If you’re not in this region you’ll need to visit HP’s Support Site to get your area’s contact information.
