If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer.  Do this to Reset your shuffle

Start up computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle.
If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference.

  • My iPod touch shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge and I've tried to restore/ restart it but the only icon is the charging icon with the battery icon with a bit of red fill and a small lightning icon below it. Can anybody help me?

    My iPod touch shows that it is charging but it actually doesn't charge and I've tried to restore/ restart it because the only icon is the charging icon, the one with the battery icon with a bit of red fill and a small lightning icon below it. Can anybody help me and give me solutions before I go to an apple service center?

    Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode.  This will be similer to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
    Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
    To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
    First connect you iOS device to you computer.
    Open iTunes if not already open
    Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
    Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
    Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button.  For another 10 seconds.
    Your iOS device should now be on DFU.  Click on restore and iTunes will download the lastest iOS for your device.
    Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a sevice centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it)

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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. already suggested
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • I ordered at around 12:30AM pacific and it does not show in my order history.  When I look it up on the order status page, it just says "received and processing".  Do I have any chance of getting it on friday?

    It seems to depend on a variety of different things.
    Verizon appears to be going by the process time of orders, and not the order time of orders.  Your process time will be the timestamp on your confirmation email.
    It also depends on which model, GB, and color you ordered.  The 6+ were in high demand and low supply.
    It also depends on which warehouse (order location) your order was being processed through.  Verizon reps have told me that some warehouses have more of certain phones than others, and if your order went to a warehouse that doesn't have enough of that particular phone then you are SOL and will have to back for a backdated order.
    There is a possibility you will get it, but if you ordered any of the 6+ models, then it is unlikely.

    I am so sorry I am frustrating you. This is the first time I have used this community and am leanring as I go. I am not able to see the entire post that you leave, unless I look at it on my phone (email)--I am so sorry. You have no idea how much i appreciate your help. Yes, I see that I can get the later version of OS software, but its not availabe for immediate download. My only options appear to be having it shipped, or going to the store to purchase. And if you know of another way that I can access all of my itunes library music on my new phone withouth using itunes, I would love to hear about it.--thanks and again i am so sorry for frustrating you.

  • I had switches off my iPhone 5 at around 20 percent battery next morning I was not able to switch it on. I tried to get it charged but it didn't showed any sign of charging even when plugged in for about 2 hours. I had to take it to apple care centre

    I had switches off my iPhone 5 at around 20 percent battery next morning I was not able to switch it on. I tried to get it charged but it didn't showed any sign of charging even when plugged in for about 2 hours. I had to take it to apple care centre but they refused to repair it after confirming the problem with the device as it was out of warranty and asked me to get it replaced for INR 22500. I got it repaired outside but after that also if I switch it off in the same situation it again happens and I have to take it for repair it has happened 3 times after that. Is it a inherent problem in iPhone that it uses battery even when switched off and if in that case battery drain out then refuse to get charged because this is the scenario i have experienced every time?

    Apple told you it was unrepairable.... You had it serviced by an unauthorized party. It's now no longer eligible for out of warranty replacement by Apple.
    There's really nothing else we can say about it. Find a competent 3rd party repair shop or buy a new one.

  • My iPhone 5s is plugged in. It does not show that it is charging but gives the alert "ding" sound every 15-16 seconds. Does anybody know what could be the problem?

    My iPhone 5s is plugged in. It does not show that it is charging but gives the alert "ding" sound every 15-16 seconds. Does anybody know what could be the problem?

    It sounds like it starting to charge, then suddenly stops over and over.  This can happen if the cable or adapter is bad or if your charing port has an issue.
    Try using a different cable and/or wall adapter.  If the issue continues, it's probably the iPhone.  If it does not continue, then it's the cable or adapter.  Continue to swap to see what's bad.
    If you don't have another cable or adapter to test will, take your iPhone and your cable/adapter combo to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.  They can help you narrow the issue down and provide service as indicated. https://locate.apple.com/country

  • Just received a ipad2 it is fully charged but when I turn it none or the icons show up...only itunes.  It is a iPad2 wi-fi 3G .

    I just received a iPad2 Wi-Fi 3G 32GB, it is fully charged but when I turn it on no icons appear except Itunes and a connect cord.  What am I doing wrong?

    The screen that you see is trying to tell you to connect the iPad to iTunes on your computer with the cable that came with it. ITunes will then walk you thru the setup steps. Make sure you download the latest version of iTunes before you connect your iPad.

  • IPhone 5 won't start up, shows that it's charging but won't turn on.

    I've had my iPhone 5 for a year and a half now and recently the battery has been having issues.
    Last night my phone reached 19% and turned off as if it had no charge left at all, and when I tried to plug the phone in to charge, the battery symbol showed up on the screen, but the phone still hadn't turned on. The phone has been left to charge overnight and it still won't turn on, I've tried holding the home and the power button at once for a few seconds but nothing works.

    Hold the POWER and HOME buttons until an Apple logo appears. If you have held them for 30 seconds and nothing has happened your phone has a hardware problem, possibly a failed battery. Note that Apple has a recall for certain iPhone 5's for defective batteries. See if yours qualifies: https://www.apple.com/support/iphone5-battery/

  • Tabs keep showing that they're loading, but when selected show that they are fully loaded

    Here's my problem - happens in Firefox 4 both at home and at my office.
    When I open the browser some tabs fully complete loading, the others appear fully loaded when selected, however each tab shows the spinning 'loading' icon and says 'loading'.
    I have to 'restart FF with add-ons disabled,' then close it and wait a minute, and then reopen and it's fine.
    I've tried disabling and re-enabling one by one, and I've tried wiping them all out and re-adding them, I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. I even went back to 3.6 and then updated to 4.0.
    I'm scratching my head with this one, mainly because it's happening on two different machines. Any help would be much appreciated

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Issues_related_to_plugins#Identifying_installed_plugins
    You can see the installed plugins on the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aplugins about:plugins] page.<br />
    If you set the pref plugin.expose_full_path to true on the about:config page then you see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.<br />
    It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.<br />
    <br />
    You can open about:plugins and about:config via the location bar, like you open a website (about: is a special protocol to access some build-in pages).<br />
    If you get a warning when opening the about:config page then you can confirm that you want to continue.
    You can also try to delete the file pluginreg.dat and let Firefox rebuild a new version.<br />
