if any of you can tell me how to get my ipod nano to turn on that would be great let alone how i can get it to update and then export songs to the thing

Hi,
Welcome to Apple Discussions
the
first issue i get is itunes will not start up it just
flat out refuses... to start up i have no idea why
You might want to ask for help in the iTunes for Windows Forum
the updater worked fine for what i installed off the
disk which told me everything was up to date as
always i went to apple.com the website to make sure
drivers arethe correct ones found out they are
not...GREAT!!!.. so i delete the old drivers and
install the new ones
Sorry, I'm on a Mac so I'm not sure what "drivers" you are referring to.
You need iTunes and the latest version is 6.0.2.
You also want the version 1.1 software for the nano.
Both are available for free from www.apple.com
then i go to update my ipod nano
and it says "sorry device notfound" mean while my
ipods frozen giveing me the no disconnect symbol it
wont even disconnect when i turn off the usb device
then it gave me the battery charge warning light then
turned right off after freaking out.
Here is a link that may help with the above:
Symptom
One or more of the following occurs:
iPod does not show up in iTunes or as disk in Windows Explorer
iPod does not show up as disk in Windows Explorer (even though disk mode is enabled on the iPod)
iTunes and Windows Explorer report the wrong amount of available space on iPod
No songs appear on the iPod after an apparently successful update from iTunes
Music copied to mapped network drive instead of iPod
Then read this link:
Strange iPod behavior when Windows confuses iPod with network drive
There's also this:
Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
i then spent a
little while redoing my itunes and ipod updaters to
where there is no application issues. i kept checking
my ipod to see if it was chargeing theres no
indicator whats so ever when the ipod nano is turned
off of it getting charged like my moms old ipod 20
gig and shes had that thing forever without any
issues at all.
If the nano is charging when it is turned on there is a small icon in the top right of the screen. If it is turned off the icon is large and uses all the screen.
iPod: About the battery charge status icon
Another link (sorry to give you so much reading to do):
iPod's battery doesn't charge
meanwhile my ipod is a metal
electronic light paper weight right now.. if this
thing doesn't work when i get up in the afternoon
tomorrow form it being connected to a AC adapter like
apple says it should work im takeing it back and
gonna drop the extra 100 on the 30gig that i know
shouldn't have any issues... cause **** this
if any of you can tell me how to get my ipod nano to
turn on that would be great let alone how i can get
it to update and then export songs to the thing
Hope some of those help.
Regards,
Colin R.

  • I restored my iphone and updated it but the progress didn't complete and now my iphone is not working. i need help asap.

    my phone was not working only the restore button was available so i restored it and they told me i have to update my iphone 5s as well. i waited till the end the update software was downloaded successfully but then the iphone restarted by itself and now its not working. the iphone screen is shown the picture when you first time open the phone to connect it to an itunes. i connected it by it not working, i restart everything still not working:( i need help asap please. thankyou

    it seems like apple's activation servers have gone down under the weight of the overwhelming amount of activation requests. you will be able to activate your phone once the servers are able to catch up with the activation requests.

  • Have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop..got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still now working.  Need help, please.

    I have photoshop cs5 installed on desktop...got new Canon rebel T5i camera...cannot open RAW images...updated and installed plug-in...still not working...help please.

    In any event, that camera was first supported by ACR version 7.4 which needs at least CS6 to run.  Naturally, all later versions support it too.
    Your choice is either to upgrade your Photoshop, or to look for, download, install, launch and run the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 on each folder containing your raw Canon files to convert them first to raw DNGs that you can open in CS5.
    In no case does an Adobe application belong "on your desktop".  The default install location should always be respected and left alone.

  • My ipad just won't let me enter my apple password on FaceTime or iMessage, it works fine on my iPhone, I have tried numerous things but nothing works, can anybody help please, will a bug fix sort this out when they finally make one

    My ipad just won't let me sign in with my apple password on FaceTime or iMessage since updating to ios7 it says check my network connection, even though my iPhone works fine with the same password, can anybody help please, I have tried numerous things but nothing  works.  Will I have to wait for a bug fix to sort this? I hear they are working on one a the minute, I hate ios7

    Try a Restart.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • My Genius mixes is not working. Need help here. please...

    I did reinstall my itunes 5 times and updated my Genius mixes many times as i could and yet the result is the same. i cant have my Genius mixes. Does anyone know how to fix this? please help. Thanks

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone restarts. Usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. See if better. If not, Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. See if better. If not you may need to replace the LCD Display or the iPhone may be beyond repair and you need a new phone.

  • KM4M-L Video not working (1337 needs help)

    ONBOARD VIDEO OUT NOT WORKING.
    AGP VIDEO OUT NOT WORKING.
    Brand new MB and components.
    Computer is POSTing ... I think (I can hear the beep and the keyboard lights up.)
    I have tried all configurations and know all other components to be FINE.  (i.e. monitor, PSU, and RAM are WORKING)
    I have reset the CMOS jumper.  I have RTFM.
    Problem exists between user and solution.  Is it my MB and has anyone else had this problem?  I think this is a defective MB.  This is my last ditch effort before I RMA it.
    Thanks!

    thanks for the suggestions, gents. (even though one was insulting)
    I mean.. the CPU comment I can understand a mistake but, the RAM comment?!  We all know that RAM will run at a lower speed than its rating in accordance with the MB.
    I already have an Nforce2 system.  This system is SFF.  The link you provided is ATX.
    PSU is Antec Smart Power 350W.  This PSU works in other systems.
    Yeah, I had both power plugs connected. (4pin and ATX)
    I am going to replace the CPU with a 266Mhz FSB and see is that helps.

    You need to restore the iPod via iTunes. Try the following to get iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Siri, sounds, video, alarm not working. Need help with backing up my iPad so I can do a factory reset....need help doing that also.

    Siri,sounds,alarm, videos not working. How do I back up my iPad and how do I do a factory reset?

    Try this:
    Make sure IOS is updated to latest version
    (How to update your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623)
    Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings  (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
    (no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).
    If that doesn't work then backup and then restore the device as new first (to isolate cause of the issue). Then from backup if necessary.

  • SWF Not Working...Help Please :(

    Hi all,
    So I've been having an issue with a SWF not work on a page and this is what I can seem to come up with after hours of messing with Dreamweaver and Flash trying to understand why it won't work. When i test the movie from the working Flash file, it works no problem. Something is going wrong when I export or publish the movie and it no longer works. Is this something that happens?
    Your help is much appreciated...this site needs to go up in the next day or so and the SWF was working and then stopped working and I'm honestly not a Flash gal so I really have no business messing with it, but it was a specific request. Thanks!

    One thing that might be an issue as far as the web page goes it that the html specifies a file named carousel2.swf which does not appear to exist on the server and is not the same name as the file you are calling the swf in your swf link (*carousel3.swf).
    Without knowing what goes on inside carousel3, or carousel 2 for that matter, it's hard to say if it is missing the xml file that it might need.  But for either case, are you certain that you have uploaded the xml file that is needed?

Maybe you are looking for
