The backlight on my 2nd gen itouch has quit...

The backlight on my 2nd gen itouch has quit... I restored the restored the software, but it didn't help - I'm sure its a hardware problem. Does anyone know what the fix for this might cost? Thanks
I couldn't see any other similar questions until this posted just a second ago - in case in helps with the diagnosis, the backlight does come on intermittently, which made me think it was a software problem, but now I'm just not sure.

I would make an appontment at the Genius Bar of an Applew store. It is free except for your time. Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished 2G for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place may be less expensive: Here us one. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
However, it may not be worth it for a 2G iPod.

What is the max memory a 2nd Gen iMac (2008) can run and where can I buy it?

What is the max memory a 2nd Gen iMac (2008) can support and if it is more than 2GB, where can you purchase?

Go to Crucial.com or OWC, you will get good advice and good memory suitable for Macs.

Out of the blue, my ipod touch (2nd gen.) won't turn back on.

I noticed my ipod touch was working a little bit slower, so I turned it off. I tried to turn it back on, and it didn't budge. I've tried to charge it with my computer multiple times (even though I know it wasn't dead), and it still won't do anything. I updated itunes and restarted my computer, still nothing. I also tried to reset it, anything.. still nothing.
I've held down both buttons in hopes it'd turn on or reset..
Help please!

- After being connect to a charging source for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so yu can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Next see if DFU mode will allow a restore.

Ever since I downloaded the new version of iTunes, my iPhone won't sync with the computer. It doesn't even show up.

I downloaded the updated version of iTunes. Ever since then, my iphone won't even come up as a device. Everytime I plug it in, something comes up asking me do I want to trust this computer on my phone.. I've been using this computer for my iphone downloads and stuff for about 6 months now. I was wondering if this has happened to anybody else since the update and is there any solutions?

So, in iTunes, when you look at the shuffle's content (in the sidebar) and click on the playlist under the shuffle, over to the right, the songs are in your desired order, correct? Where do you look, or what do you do, that indicates the playlists are in alphabetical order? Are you saying that when you play the songs while using the shuffle, they play in alphabetical order?
If so, when you listen to the songs on the shuffle, are you using the playlist, or are you using the All Songs list? If you are in the default All Songs list, with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order (the middle position), the songs play alphabetically, I believe.
The 3rd gen shuffle uses VoiceOver. If you are in the All Songs list, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to the playlist (see manual linked below for details). When you are in the playlist (with the shuffle's power switch set to play-in-order), then the songs should play in playlist order.
There are more details in the manual for the 3rd gen shuffle, which is online here
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_3rdGen_UG.pdf
See page 22 for the section about setting up and using VoiceOver. The part about switching playlists starts on page 23 (Using the Playlist Menu).

Can the Genius Bar cable to my iPhone 5S to enter my passcode on a broken, non-responsive touch screen? I need to back up the 5S before replacing it under AppleCare

Can the Genius Bar cable my 5S to their computer or separate keyboard to enter my passcode on a broken, non-responsive touchscreen? I need to get past the passcode to either transfer my data and pics to a new 5S or my PC computer (that the 5S has never been synced with.

Are you serious... only bluetooth keyboards? Even if the keyboard has the lightning connector? This supposedly works on the iPhone: http://store.griffintechnology.com/wired-keyboard-for-ios-devices

Anyone got the new iPod touch 2nd gen to work with the fatman itube dock???

Hi all,
Recently for christmas I've bought a new iPod touch 2nd gen and it's awesome, everything is great about it - in my opinion; except for the fact that I tried to dock it on the fatman itube docking station and found it not to work. Before I used it I was aware that the 2nd gen is unable to charge on the dock however I didn't expect the speakers not to work too. All that happens is a message on the ipod comes up saying unable to charge with this accessory but doesn't put any sound output into the fatman, it just sits there blasting out it's own quiet internal speaker, and also strangely the remote DOES work too???
I've read on the net that maybe resetting the ipod by holding the home+stand-by switch for 10 secs but this resets and does not fix the problem...
There are many photos on the fatman website showing a ipod touch docked so it seems to be sold as working with it but who's to blame for this fault? Apple or fatman?? And does anybody know of a fix for it?
Also I tried my mums ipod nano with the fatman - works fine, and my firmware on the ipod touch is nice and up to date with version 2.2 so I can't see anything else I can do. This was my christmas & birthday present and at the moment I'm quite annoyed that all I can do to it is stick a mini jack in the headphone socket - not ideal since there's no video output or remote control that way!!!
Please give advice if there is any out there,
Thanks,
Mrghostie.

This is an Answer for a Possible Solution. It worked for me and is still working. The issue I was having with my 64 bit vista, was Apple Mobile Device Service was not being installed, I dont know why. But I disabled any active running program through MSCONFIG, to allow a clean uninterrupted install of ITUNES 8.02. This allowed AMDS and drives from ITUNES to install. Hope this works for most of you.
APPLE, please review your Support Methods. Re-installing doesnt help an issue that resulted from installing.

Anyone else have the favorites bar showing up on iPhone?

I Have looked all over to see if anybody else is having this same issue, but have found nothing. I have a very annoying issue where the favorites bar (also called the bookmarks bar) that is in Safari on the desktop or on the iPad in landscape mode, showing up on my iPhone (only in landscape). I have the 6+, running 8.1, and I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be there, because as I scroll down, and it goes into full screen, the text from the bar is persistent and is clickable. this also causes an issue where the selectable items on websites become off. I click buttons and nothing happens, but if I tap off to the side of it, then the button would work. I've added a screenshot

It looks like something happened to the pictures. (they were working) So i'll but them back up. also I have more news on this issue. I am able to reproduce the issue if I open safari on my iPhone while my iPhone is in landscape mode. If I open safari in portrait mode, then turn it to landscape mode, the favorites bar will not show up. I also think this might be somehow connected to how I set up my iPhone when I first got it. I did not have an iPhone before I got the 6+, but i did have an iPad mini running IOS 8. I "restored" my phone from an iPad backup. In the iPad, it has the option to use favorites bar in safari, and I did have that turned on. I'm not 100% sure this is the cause of my issue, but it something to look at if anybody else is having this issue. Because the iPhone is not supposed to support the favorites bar in safari, there is not way of turning off the favorites bar in the settings. I still have no current way of fixing the problem, But i was just sharing my findings and thoughts.

If 2nd Gen IPhone released during contract...

I'm considering buying an Iphone when it's finally released here i the UK

Can't answer for O2 but since it seems the iPhone will be sold in the UK just as it is sold in the U.S. - carrier locked with O2 but not subsidized by O2, if the 2nd generation iPhone is released during the original contract term you can purchase it if you so choose without any penalty or requiring a new contract from the purchase date.

2nd gen shuffle won't play podcasts after upgrading to Itunes 7.2(34)

I use my shuffle to listen to podcasts only. Last week afer upgrading Itunes it stopped playing and the LED would flash alternating green and orange. I did the 5 R's apple recommends and it still would not work. I even downloaded Apple's Ipod Reset Utility, it still would not work. I took it to the Genius Bar at the apple store because it is only 3 months old and they gave me a new shuffle. After returning home and trying to sync the new shuffle to my podcasts it had the same problem as the previous shuffle. This got me to thinking it was something besides the shuffle. The only thing I could think of was the new version of Itunes. So I tried to put other things on there besides podcasts. I added itunes store bought music, both drm and drm free, mp3 and aac music that I ripped in itunes before and mp3 and aac podcasts that I have downloaded. The shuffle played all the music but skipped over the podcasts. Please help. I was able to play these podcasts before on the shuffle so the file type is not an issue. I can play the podcasts on my video Ipod. I can even play them on the shuffle via itunes when it is connected to my computer. I don't know what to do and I am seriously falling behind on my podcasts. Any tips would be appreciated

Hello FrayedSo, Sorry to read your having a difficult time with your shuffle and podcasts.
As you mentioned earlier this is your second shuffle and it is able to play songs you purchase or put onto it but it skips past the Podcasts.
Are you playing these podcasts as part of a Playlist? or is this happening in shuffle mode?
Some of the things you could do to possibly assist with troubleshooting your issue are below.
Make sure to Consolidate your iTunes Library so all your information is backed up to your iTunes Music folder. You can do this by going to Advanced-Consolidate Library.
To quote a part in Knowledge Base 30058
"Playing Audiobooks and podcasts on iPod shuffle
When iPod shuffle is set to shuffle songs it will play all the audio files on iPod shuffle that are not audiobooks. Podcasts of type .m4b or AAC will not play on iPod shuffle when it is in shuffle mode, which is the intended behavior, although a podcast of type .mp3 or .wav may play while in shuffle mode. To play an audiobook or podcast that is on iPod shuffle, set the switch on iPod shuffle to play in order."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300558
Another thing you could try. Create a new user account on your Windows System and download some podcasts and sync it to your shuffle and see if the same issue occurs.

How do I alter the grey bar since ios7 on iphone 4?

I have a query that I have seen on various forumes concerning the grey bar at bottom of screen that seems to be a solid colour, rather than the translucent one in ios6. This new look of the ios7 seems to be a perment thing, I have checked settings and cannot find any way of making it either lighter, translucent or even smaller. This appearance gives the wallpaper and phone screen a childish look. Please can anyone help me? Thank you in advance.

You are correct. There is no setting you can change to change the appearance of that bar. You can provide feedback to Apple to let them know how you feel by going to www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

After the upgrade to ios7 my 4s iphone won't open the itunes store or allow me to search the store. Not even using a different app that links to the stores download button.

After the upgrade to ios 7 my iphone 4s will not open the itunes store at all. It will allow me to open a specific song from another app for download from apps such as shazam, but I cannot search the store. ios 7 is the worst thing since windows vista.

And it's not the safari settings either, i've already tried that and resetting my phone a few times.

My first gen iPhone won't sync

Ever since the upgrade, it's often impossible to sync my phone... it launches iTunes, but all I get is the spinning ball... no iPhone page. When I disconnect the phone, I see the iPhone page for a split second and then it disappears. Can anyone help?

yes and yes. When I try and sync, iTunes will be unresponsive for about 10 minutes and then it syncs. I saw another thread where other people are having the same issue.

Ipod touch 2nd gen. Won't play videos anymore-all purchase on ITUNES

All of sudden my touch is not syncing any of the videos I purchased on ITUNES. I tried reset-nothing. I don't have the ability to convert via itunes-it won't highlight that option. These were on my ipod-some even purchased on the ipod then transfered. Once transfered they disappear off the ipod and stay on itunes and then I get an error saying format doesn't work. I was able to watch them when I downloaded direct into ipod.
I've seen similar post but nothing seemed to be exactly what I have. Can anyone help?

- Do they play on the computer?
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.
