Restoring Second Generation IPOD Shuffle

I just received a new IPOD shuffle and have already managed to screw it up. As soon as I try to sync it to itunes it asks me to restore it because it says it is in a recovery mode. When I try to restore it it fails and gives me a error code of 1429. I'm running Vista OS therefore downloading the reset utility is not an option as it only works with Windows 2000 and XP. I have tried rebooting the computer and also tried various USB ports. None of these have helped. I'm using Itunes version 8.0.2.20 I think this is the latest. Any ideas out there?

u can restore ur ipod with some high time taking methods.. but no other go.. if u have a problem in restoring your ipod.. u need to install a new operating system and itunes in it.. its breath taking and time consuming..
whatever u do u cant able to make it.. by reinstalling ur itunes in the old operating system..
just install a fresh copy and thats up..

    Does the dock from a fourth generation ipod shuffle work with a second generation ipod shuffle?

    No, they are different.  If you look at the replacement part for the 4th gen shuffle's USB cable

    it says it's only for the 3rd and 4th gen shuffle.

  • My 2nd generation iPod Shuffle won't charge or sync in iTunes.

    As the title says, my second generation iPod shuffle will not charge when connected to itunes. I ventured to the apple store to seek another connection cable after my first one was lost, but alas, this has no effect. When plugged in, my shuffle stays dormant; it is not regognized in iTunes, and the LED light stays gray. Any Help to this Problem?

  • 2nd generation IPod Shuffle

    I am looking for the Windows 64 bit IPod Reset Utility for second generation IPod Shuffle.  My IPodno longer has battery indicator lights and does not show in ITUNES.

    Unfortunately, I don't think there is a 64-bit Windows version.  If you know someone with an older Windows PC or any Mac, maybe they can run it for you.  Or, if there is an Apple Store nearby, you can make a reservation at the Genius Bar and have them give it a try.
    Does the shuffle still appear in device manager?  If it does not, and it does not charge when connected, the problem is more likely to be with the USB connection.  That would probably mean the USB cable/dock is bad, or the connector (headphone jack) on the shuffle has become faulty.
    It could also be the USB port on the computer.  If you have not already, I would try the following.  Shut down (power off) the computer.  Use this procedure to reset the iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Disconnect ALL USB peripherals from the computer, except for standard mouse and keyboard.  Start up computer with shuffle NOT connected.  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer.

  • Ipod shuffle second generation with  shuffle third generation adapter

    I have an Ipod shuffle second generation but the adapter broke. I went to Wal-Mart and all they had was the 3rd generation adapter and I need to know if it will work on the 2nd generation Ipod shuffle.

  • Recently downloaded new ITunes.  Can't get my 3rd generation iPod shuffle to load songs in order.  Help????

    Recently downloaded new iTunes.  Now I can't get my 3rd generation iPod shuffle to load songs in order.  Never had trouble with the old iTunes format.

    I love the new version of Grid view but some of the other changes feel like they still need some fine tuning. And I miss cover flow even if I didn't use it that often...
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
    Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar (your device should be listed here as before).
    Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (but perhaps it does more)
    If you want to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • TS1363 1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes (windows 7)?

    1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes on my Windows 7 PC (but shows up in my computer).  Tried all the Apple trouble-shooting steps (some several times).  It used to work with Windows 7 on this PC.  Are there other steps I can try? 

    I'm not sure what "all" means, unless you state them, so if you have not done so already, you should use this procedure to reset the iPod shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Then, shut down your computer (power off) and start it up, with iPod shuffle NOT connected.  Run iTunes.  Then, try connecting the iPod shuffle again.
    Since this is a first gen iPod shuffle that IS recognized by the computer (so it's probably not a bad USB connector), you can also try using the iPod Reset Utility
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1238
    This is for the first and second gen iPod shuffle only, and does a lower level reset than using a normal Restore in iTunes.

  • I have a 1st generation iPod shuffle when I switch on and press wheel a green and then orange light flashes.?

    It sounds like the "Error light" described toward the end fo this document

    The document provides some possible causes, and things to try, including doing a Restore if the other suggestions do not apply or do not work.

  • HT1719 why doesnt my 1st generation ipod shuffle appear on my devices on itunes?

    Why doesnt my 1st generation ipod shuffle appear under my devices on itunes when i plug it in? i have windows 7. I got the ipod today from a friend with their music. i deleted their music and added my own to the folder it was in. but when i unplugged it i still had their music and none of mine.

    You need to restore the Shuffle in iTunes first. Then sync all of your music stored in iTunes over to it. Or is that what you did?

  • My 1st generation iPod shuffle will not allow me to sync any podcasts onto it...what do I do?

    My 1st generation iPod shuffle isn't letting me sync my podcasts even though they can play in iTunes

    I did recently move to a new NetGear wireless cable voice gateway router (CG3100) and this is when the problems started
    In order for the AirPort Express to "join" the wireless network provided by the Netgear router, you need to know exactly what type of wireless security settings that the Netgear is using.
    Unless you provide the Express with the exact information required to join the network, you will continue to see error messages after you click Update during the configuration.
    The message about the "settings have been successfully stored" is a misnomer. This tells you that the settings have been saved, but not if they were the correct settings.
    You will know that you have the right settings about 40-45 seconds after you click Update. If the light turns green, your settings are correct.

  • ITunes & iMac do not recognize 1st generation ipod shuffle

    My 1st generation ipod shuffle does not show up in either the desktop or itunes. It does however light up the orange or green light when connected to the computer.
    It also seems to knock out the usb connection that it was plugged into. After I unplug it I try to put the keyboard in the same usb slot that the shuffle was in and it does not work. But it does work in other usb outlets. I reset the PRAM and NVRAM and then the all usb connectors work again.
    Also, to add to the confusion I have 2 first generation ipod shuffles. The other one works fine.
    I cannot restore the shuffle because I can not see it anywhere.
    Is there anything that can be done?

    Here in Brazil if the technicians solve the 1418 iPod problem with "magic softwares" provided from Apple just for assistence services, they are charging the iPod users about U$40.
    But if the problem is classified as a hardware problem, and if its under warranty, they give you another new or a refurbished (yek!).
    If its not under warranty, you can have your iPod and pray for fix...
    Is it fair that a problem probably cause by a software provided from the own manufacturer should be solved by Apple's costumers? I dont think so...
    Do you any idea about what can we do?

  • 2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port, 2nd generation ipod shuffle not recognized by usb 3.0 port

    Hi,
    My 2nd generation ipod shuffle will not connect to any usb 3.0 port.  I've tried on to computers -- one Windows XP and the other Windows 7.  Any ideas?

    Hi
    I had the same issue with my Late 2009 Mac mini running Mavericks and iTunes 12. When I connected my 2nd generation iPod shuffle it would blink amber once then do nothing. This seems to be a common problem with the iPod shuffle and newer versions of Mac OS X (10.6 and up) and iTunes albeit with somewhat varying symptoms but the same overall problem syncing the iPod with iTunes.
    The predominant go-to solution is to give the iPod more power by either connecting the iPod directly to a USB port on the Mac or by disconnecting all other USB devices. On paper this makes sense.
    What worked for me, however, was the opposite. After trying to solve this problem for hours (weeks, months), I had success ONLY after adding a low-powered 4-port USB hub to the chain between the iPod and the Mac. I suspect this had the effect of throttling the power supplied to the iPod from the Mac. I was able to perform a restore on the iPod then sync my music over.
    I can't tell you much about the USB hub except that it is running at USB 1.1 speeds (12 Mb/sec). In theory a USB 1.1 extension cable should also do the trick. You might even be able to use the USB hub in old wired Apple USB keyboard. I will attach a photo of the hub I used to this post for greater clarity.
    I really hope this helps.

    Try:
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    . Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
