This is rediculous (ipod not turning off, itunes not working)

I got the Ipod about two months ago (so still relatively new) and today when i went to charge my ipod and put my new music on there, the ipod froze at the do not disconnect screen, then I noticed my itunes hadn't recognized it was plugged in. So i disconnected my ipod yet it still says do not disconnect.
So I plugged it back in and it said there was a corrupt file and it would clean it up, and then it froze, so nothing was fixed, now it won't recognize it again no matter how many times i disconnect it, and my ipod won't turn off.
Any suggestions?

Now it says my ipod is corrupt (it was fine 15 minutes ago) and i try to restore the original settings and it says "There was a problem downloading the Ipod software for for the Ipof "iPod". The requested resource was not found."

I have an ipod touch 2nd generation and i have a white screen and will not turn off( it was working fine this am) help!!

I have a ipod touch 2nd generation and i have a white screen and will not turn off. My ipod was working fine this am, i was checking my facebook acount when it just went white.

That symptom is covered here:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting

Why does my ipod touch turn off and not turn on for a while

every once in a while my ipod touch turns off and wont turn back on for a day or two. So why does it do this, it is from over use of the ipod?

Try the following fixes in order:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod
If yo still have the problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPhone 5 submerged in water, but did not turn off/will not turn off. Best course of action?

My iPhone 5 was just in the sink under running water and mostly submerged for a few seconds. It stayed on with all buttons working, clear screen and clear camera lens. I have tried to turn it off, but every time I try it reboots. I removed the SIM - it was completely dry, but since I can't see the inside I'm assuming there's definitely moisture in there.
I currently have it in an airtight bag with silica gel, and I'm planning to leave it for a day or two, but it's still on. Should I keep trying to turn it off, or is it better for me to just leave it? I don't have the necessary equipment to remove the battery, unfortunately.

Last attempt to turn phone off actually did turn the phone off. Not going to touch it for a day or two, and hoping for the best.

Do Not Disconnect Doesn't turn off - itunes not finding ipod

My ipod has been plugged in for hours and it still says do not disconnect. Also, itunes says that there is no ipod connected. How do I fix these and have itunes find my ipod.

Maybe you should try and restore it to factory settings by using your iPod updater and selecting "Restore".

DVD drive light on Satellite M50 does not turning OFF, drive not reading CDs/DVDs

Hello,
I have a Satellite M50-mx5 with a Mat****a DVD drive. When I insert CDs or DVDs, the drive starts up, spins the CD around (the light is blinking)...but a few seconds later, the drive stops spinning, but the DVD drive light remains on.
Windows also thinks that the DVD drive is empty.
I also tried to boot Windows from CD when the computer starts up, but with no success either.
Any ideas to what's wrong? Is my DVD drive broken?
Thanks
Eli

Hi
Sorry to said it but in my opinion the drive is dead and only the replacement can helps to get the drive functionality back.
But be aware that not every drive is supported and can be used with the notebook!
Take a look into the user manual. Sometimes the compatible drives are listed.
And its useful to known that all parts can be ordered from the ASP in your country.
have a nice weekend ;)

Upgraded Cloudon ..now backlight does not auto turn off when not in use. How do I do that

HT5463 I have an iPhone5,iPad 3 & my daughter an iPod Touch 4th generation. We use Do Not Disturb. It turns by itself at 9:30pm & off at 7:00am. This morning, none of them turned off automatically. I manually backed them up to iTunes yesterday. Any though

I have an iPhone5, and an iPad3 and my daughter has an iPod touch 4th generation and her and I have separate accounts. I backed them up to my PC to iTunes last evening as I do every few weeks. We both use the Do Not Disturb option. Quiet hours are from 9:30pm to 7:00am. The 3 devices always turned the Do Not Disturb on and off according to the schedule on their own. As of this morning, the Do Not Disturb did not turn off on any of the devices. I sync them with iCloud either manually or when charging them. The moon icon stayed on all day today and did not follow the schedule. I had to shut it off manually on my phone. Any thoughts. My daughter initially had used her iPod Touch under an Apple account I made with my information. When I got my iPad and then iPhone5 I created a different account for her. Some items of mine went on her iPod Touch yesterday when I backed them up on iTunes on my PC. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

After installing iTunes and iPod, my computer will not turn off

I am running Windows XP, and have just installed my new iPod nano and iTunes. Now my computer will not turn off. When I select "Turn off computer" in the start menu, the computer goes through the usual process of shutting down -- then it restarts automatically every time! Once it has started up again, it sends an Error report to windows -- but they are not coming forward with a solution for this problem. It appears as a problem created by an "Unknown device driver". I now have to turn my computer off by the wall. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Try running the Combo update first ... OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo), and once it is successfully downloaded, then try to download 10.8.5.
Sometimes the combo will correct any minor glitches in the system and also ensure all necessary updates to that point are included.

IPod is not turning off well.

My iPod is not turning off well. Sometimes I have to try 10 times for it to turn off. Any reason why?

For a more long-term improvement for your iPod's issue of not turning off, you could try restoring it in iTunes.

My iPod 160GB just does not turn OFF!

My iPod 160 GB just does not turn off. Every time i press down the play/pause button, the iPod switches off and comes ON almost immediately. This happens even when i switch it off and immediately turn on the "Hold" button. I am having this problem only since the last 2 months or so. What could be the problem?

Then you should try restoring the iOS software next. Read this and pay attention to the last part of the article that describes recovery mode, you may have to restore your iPad that way.

IPod will not turn off after being used as an external HD in Windows

I have disabled the option to have Itunes open when I connect my Ipod and I turned off the iTunesHelper in msconfig. This allows me to use my Ipod as an external HD without interference by iTunes. I have found that since upgrading to Ipod firmware 1.1.1, after I disconnect my Ipod using the Safely Remove hardware option in Windows XP SP2 my iPod will not turn off. I just turn on the lock, and let sleep mode set in after 2 minutes.
This only occurs if I connect the iPod as an external HD and does not occur when I connect the iPod with iTunes open to sync my music library. The problem started with firmware 1.1.1. Is anyone also having this issue, and if so, is there a known solution?

If you are not past the 2 weeks return period you can just return it.. for sure the TC is not ideal when you want something to store files.. the fundamental issue is lack of backup. The TC cannot back itself up. Nor can Time Machine in the computer backup network drives.
To mount the TC disk in finder.
Use Go, Connect to server. in the top menu.
Type in AFP://TCname.local or TCIPaddress. (where TCname.local is the correct network name of the TC.. ie not its name as typed in, if it includes spaces and illegal characters like apostrophe. You need to find the actual network name from network utility netstat scan or better still use proper naming on the TC.
Local is the default domain and helps.
If the TC is in router mode the IP is static and is better used than the name.
AFP://10.0.1.1 for example with default IP is far superior way to identify a network resource.
The disk password will be requested. Add it to your keychain.
It is better to load files to a DMG or sparsebundle.. See Pondini for info.

Ipod shuffle green statuslight will not turn off

Dear
I tried several times to reset my ipot shuffle,
and to install new from the original ipod CD.
In itunes there is no problem, Ican see the ipot in the list, and there is no failure.
But when I disconnect it, and turn it on with the switch,
the green status led on the front is lightning, and it will
not turn off.
When I push buttons, there is no response.
Before this failure, the green status light went out
after 3 seconds when switch on.
what can I do?
I dont feel like wasting my time trying to get it
running again. What I need is a clear discribtion
what to do, because I did find nothing with this
sympthom.
Cheers A.O.

I have the same problem. It happend when I deleted and reinstalled the Itunes software. The software installation ask to "format" the Ipod, the applcation crashed and since then I can download music in the Ipod, I can see it connected to Itune and to My Computer, but I cannot use it to listened to music by itself. The green light doesn't turn off and nothing happen.
What sould we do?

This is rediculous (ipod not turning off, itunes not working)
