Restored iPod more than 3 times and still asking to restore

I tried to sync my iTunes today and I was instructed to restore my iPod. No big deal so I restored. However, when the iPod restarted and was "restored", iTunes once again asked me to restore the ipod. I've tried restoring more than 3 times already and I've plugged it into different USB ports and I still get the same message.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

You are in a restore loop which is using caused by a drive assignment problem. Disconnect all other USB devices except for your iPod and change the drive letter on your iPod: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499

    You have to restore the iPad by syncing to the original computer that you synced to.
    This article explains the process.

  • Create Table taking long time (more than 60 minutes) and still running

    Hi all,
    I was able to create and drop table until yesterday, but now the when I issue the below statement the server is stuck, its showing creating table in process.... and then it hangs till you cancel the operation. Query of table and running the procedures are ok, so I am confused why only create table is having issues.
    CREATE TABLE table1
    ( field1 VARCHAR2(20) );
    Any help at the earliest will be appreciated,
    Thanks

    Just check up your status of the log files
    select * from v$logfile
    If the status is inactive,
    Just do a
    alter system switch logfile
    The alert log should have the problem specified check for the file.
    also try to recreate another user and take a try in table creation:
    SQL> connect sys/******
    SQL> create user scott identified by tiger default tablespace users temporary tablespace temp quota 100m on users;
    SQL> grant connect, resource to scott;_
    SQL> connect scott/tiger
    SQL> create table xyz ( a number);
    SQL> create table abc ( d number);
    Could you successfully create the tables?

  • More than 5 weeks and still no phoneline

    I first made contact with BT in March to sort out Boradband, the guy on the phone tried to do a line test but as it didnt show up he said the only thing he could so was set us up for a phone line and activate broadband once the phone line was sorted.
    I agreed to this despite wanting broadband only as i hoped it wouldnt be too long!
    How wrong was i!!!!
    An appointment was made for an engineer to come out to the house to sort the line, my partner took the day of work to wait for the guy, he came out and after some time checked the lines at the top of the road and they were not even connected to the main exchange.
    The engineer informed us that it would be around 3-5 working days and Bt should contact us with a new apt.
    More like 3 weeks....
    I have since been on the phone 3 times to find out when we are getting another appt, I rang one evening and was promised a call back, which I never got, I rang again on Wednesday 11/05/2011 evening and the guy on the phone was very helpful, he told me that the line test since the work had been completed was good and they would sort me out with an appt for Friday 13/05/2011, I explained to the guy that I was in work until 4pm on Friday so could the appt be made for after that which I was told Yes. When I told him that we wanted Broadband he also explained that once the line was enabled I could ring the number again and they would fast track a broadband package to us due to the amount of time we have had to wait and the issues we have encountered. I was then told someone would ring me on Thursday 12/05/2011 to confirm the appt.
    I rang numerous times on the Thursday and could not get through on the number given 01793595043.
    I rang numerous times on the Friday and finally got through at 12:30 to ask what was happening with the appointment to be told Openreach don’t work in the afternoon on a Friday and the appt was made for the morning. After me telling them I was in work all day. The lady on the phone was less than helpful and told me that if she cancels the appt or if the appointment fails that because the issue doesn’t lie with them there is nothing they will do to help apart from book me another appt for the end of next week. In my opinion the issue lies totally with BT as I told the guy on Wednesday that I was in work on Friday until 4pm and there would be no one in the house till after 4:15pm.
    I got an online help guy on Friday also who told me that Order Mgt wanted to speak to me directly to try and resolve my issue as at this point i am extremly unhappy. They called on Friday to re-arrnage and apt, and guess what... the systems are down... they cannot book and appt. The girl on the phone assured me someone would re-book on Monday and ring to let me know about an appt. She even went as far as to put a complaint in from ehr end as this service is awful, she looked at the notes and was shocked at the lenght of time it has taken to to get anything sorted.
    As i was in a conference call in work this morning i was unable to take the call that came thought but had a listen to the voicemail left for me..... the issue has been passed around AGAIN to a different team as they still cant seem to book me an appointment, at least this time it has been stated that i need a PM appointment
    This is extremely unhelpful and unacceptable and the service is awful. We have had to wait 5 weeks since initial contact with BT to try and get internet and we haven’t even got a phone line yet. Not only this but I have an extra £20-30 on my phone bill due to the fact I have to chase up after promised call backs.
    As i work in the IT sector its important that i can keep up with my work which i currently cant do, if we ran our business like this we would have no customers left.
    Im sorely dissapointed!!!!

    Hi terri-ann,
    If you mean can we speed things along any quicker I am afraid not
    As the Infinity install needs an engineer to set everything up the time frame is really down to the availability of the engineers in your area.
    I can keep an eye on the order for you though and make sure that everything goes according to plan if you would like?  Try the contact us form again and just make sure that all the fields are filled before submitting it.

  • I can hardly believe my old school Palm Pre was much friendlier than the IPhone.  I have had it for more than six months and still cannot sync my Outlook calendars and contacts.  I get a message like, "no calendar application  identified."    help!

    My old school palm pre was much friendlier than the IPHONE 3G.  I was able to sync my outlook calendars and contacts via wi-fi effortlessly.  I tunes did sync once or twice in the six months that I have had it, but more often it acts like it is syncing and ultimately delivers a message like "no calendar application is supported".  Why the back and forth.  Very frustrating after literally hours of trying to sync my phone with my Outlook calendar and contacts.  HELP!!!!

    You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
    Instructions can be found here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    You may need to restore using Recovery Mode. You can read about it here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
    Recovery Mode Instructions
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
    Use iTunes to restore iPad.

    i have ipad 2 16gb wifi, since 3 months it started to autorestart and crash out of games and apps, more than 20 times aday- tried to restore-install as new ipad- soft and hard reset-, updated to the latest 7.0.4 but still the same problem
    plz help....

    Vinayaka-
    After all you've tried, Dah*veed is probably right about needing warranty assistance.
    But first check to be sure Settings-Airplane Mode is set to OFF, and Settings-WiFi-WiFi is set to ON.
    Try unplugging your WiFi router for a few seconds.  Then reset the iPad's network.  Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings.  You will need to reconnect to your WiFi.

  • I just got an iPhone 5 32GB and i have backed up my old 3GS 32GB via itunes (20GB of data on there) and it is taking a very long time to restore to my iPhone5. Its taken more than 20 hours and says 12 hours remaining. The text "Time remaining" flickers.

    I just got an iPhone 5 32GB and i have backed up my old 3GS 32GB via itunes (20GB of data on there) and it is taking a very long time to restore to my iPhone5. Its taken more than 20 hours and didnt complete.
    The text "Time remaining ... hours" flickers.
    I set it to start restoring from the 3GS backup yesterday at 1pm and the time remaining kept on increasing. I left it overnight and at 9am this morning the progress bar hadnt moved and it said 12 hours remaining.
    I don't know why its taking so long. I unplugged it and it just set up as new phone. So i did a factory reset and tried again at 4pm and it is now 12am and it says 4 hours remaining and my computer occasionally flickers. (Its not a bad computer, 2 months old, i7, 6GB RAM, Heaps of HDD space). It also messes with google chrome and i cannot browse the web at all while it is trying to restore my iphone.
    I have tried restarting my laptop and should i reinstall itunes? I simply dont see why it should take longer than 20 hours to copy over 20GB of data!
    Can anyone help me?
    Thank you

    I'm having this EXACT same problem with my iPhone 4, and I have the same computer stats (I have a Samsung Series 7)

  • I accidentally changed a setting on my ipod touch and now it won't change back. I have had my ipod for more than two years and i dont know what to do. If i go to the apple store, would they fix it, or would i need to get a new one?

    I accidentally changed a setting on my ipod touch and now it won't change back. I have had my ipod for more than two years and i dont know what to do. If i go to the apple store, would they fix it, or would i need to get a new one? If it could be fixed, how much would it cost?

    If it is still under warranty you can call the 800 number to apple and enter the serial number and it will tell you if it is under warranty or not if not its like $30 basically for them to help or something like that it said today when i called...
    Or take it to a genius bar if you have one near?
    Or further explain what setting you are needing fixed back and im sure someone here can help you for free!
