This %/$ thing is not working

i tried everything about reseting and blablablabla and i am about to loose my mind
what happened?
all of the sudden, it stoped showing stuff on the screen, and i had to shut it down.
as you may imagine this little thing never woke up
please help me
i already tried plugging in and unplugging it (charge it)
i already tried to reset it with the instructions
i'll go mad if this doesn't work soon T___T

So it's as though the iPod is working normally without a screen...
Have you tried restoring the iPod? http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
If so, you might have to take it back to an Apple store for a replacement.

    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.

    im running OSX 10.7.4

    Hi There,
    I have had the exact same issue but with a projector.
    The issue lies with Mountian Lion 10.8.2.
    I tried many a combination with no luck to get HDMI working.
    Took my mac into the apple store and came to the conclusion it was the software, so I asked them to install 10.8 onto it (this is destructive so a backup is a must)
    Bought my macbook home and voila, now displaying through my projector.
    There is a small graphics update after 10.8.1 which seems to be the cause.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

    Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
    In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
    I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

    We're sorry.
    We can't find the article you're looking for.
    Please return to the Apple Support homepage.

  • How do i make a tab active and make it stay that way always. If i put a website in my home page in order for the tabs to open automatically in that same homepage , this setting is not working, every time I open a tab , a white window appears .

    How do i make a tab active and make it stay that way always. If i put a website in my home page in order for the tabs to open automatically in that same homepage , this setting is not working, every time I open a tab , the window appears white .

    By default Firefox opens a blank page for a new Tab, there is no setting to change that action without installing an add-on.

    this link is not working. Please if you can access this link send me the text from it (as an attachement by email)

    Is the SQL being passed to Access valid for Access:
    SELECT Orders.*, Tickets_detail.OrderID2 AS T2, Tickets_detail.Price, Tickets_detail.ticketname FROM Orders JOIN Tickets_detail ON Orders.OrderID = Tickets_detail.OrderID2 WHERE EventID =24 AND AuthNetCode =1 AND OrderType IS NULL ORDER BY orderID2 DESC
    (that's from your error msg)
    Can you run that on Access?
    I suspect the JOIN syntax might be different.
    Any reason why you're running SQL Server on live, and Access on dev? You're making a bit of a rod for yourself there.

    I have a comment.  I am very upset with Photoshop and all your tutorials regarding the quick select tool.  I have watched many tutorials and read instructions until I am blue in the face.  This tool does not work.  It is all over the place and all of your tutorials make it look so simple.  How can you advertise this as a viable tool when it just doesn't work?

    It is all over the place and all of your tutorials make it look so simple.
    This is a user to user Forum, so you are not really addressing Adobe here, even though some Adobe employees thankfully have been dropping by.
    How can you advertise this as a viable tool when it just doesn't work?
    Concluding something does not work because you fail at using it is not necessarily always justified.
    The Quick Selection Tool certainly has limitations, but your post seems to be more about venting than trouble-shooting – otherwise you might have posted an image where you failed to get an expected result.

  • Elements 13 crashes - Windows message - this program is not working correctly - windows will close it.

    I bought Elements 13 4 days ago through Amazon - so far it has not run for more than 5 minutes before Windows closes it down with the message - this program is not working correctly, windows will close it. I know this is not unusual but has anyone got a solution - apart from returning  it
    with a very unfavourable review? I have tried all the suggested fixes on the Adobe help site with no result.  Elements 10 runs OK on the same machine.
    Alternatively, is there any possible way to get support from Adobe?

    Do you have any version of Premiere Elements 13 or only Photoshop Elements 13 which comes with Elements Organizer 13?
    Let us look at the following for Elements Organizer 13....
    1. Deletion of disabling the Elements Organizer 13 setting file which is named psa.prf. In Windows 7, 8, o 8.1 64 bit, it is found in the
    path
    Local Disk C
    Users
    Owner
    AppData
    Roaming
    Adobe
    Elements Organizer
    13.0
    Organizer
    and in the Organizer Folder is the psa.prf file that you delete or disable by renaming it from psa.prf to psa.prfOLD.
    2. If the above gains you successful entry into the Elements Organizer 13, then you can
    a. create a new catalog
    and/or
    b. repair or optimize the current one
    See Elements Organizer 13/File Menu/Manage Catalogs/Catalog Manager.
    3. There are times that certain formats will bring the Elements Organizer down when you try to import those formats into
    it.  But, from what you wrote, your current problems do not sound media related.
    3. At your earliest opportunity, please update Elements Organizer 13 to 13.1 using its Help Menu/Updates.
    Please review and consider and then let us know the outcome.
    Thank you.

    That's odd.
    Try this: Unplug your Time Capsule and your router. On your MBP, click the Wi-Fi icon and select "Open Network Preferences".
    Click the lock icon to authenticate, then click the "gear" and select "set service order". Wherever AirPort (or Wi-Fi - I forget what Snow Leopard calls it) appears, drag it elsewhere in the list. Click OK, then Apply, then power up your router and TC.
    If that doesn't result in any change, repeat the above but try making the service(s) you do not need "inactive".
    The purpose of this is to reset or at least change your Network Preferences, which somehow got confused upon upgrading to SL.

  • I want to save with alt s in the program Exact Online. This function is not working. this is the first time that i use this program with firefox.

    Question
    I want to save with <nowiki><alt><s></nowiki> in the program Exact Online. This function is not working. this is the first time that i use this program with firefox.
    '''edit''', mod escaped the '''<nowiki><s></nowiki>''' to prevent line through question

    Submitted too soon... To change your accelerator key for accesskeys to Alt alone (or a different combination), you can change a setting using Firefox's about:config preferences page.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''ui.k''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Make sure '''ui.key.generalAccessKey''' is set to its default value of -1 (or right-click and choose Reset if it is not).
    (4) Double-click '''ui.key.contentAccess''' to open a dialog box to change the value from its current default (on Windows, 5) to your choice of the following:
    * 2 = '''Ctrl''' (Fx default on Mac thru Fx13)
    * 3 = Ctrl + Shift
    * 4 = '''Alt''' (IE/Chrome/Safari default on Win/Linux)
    * 5 = '''Alt + Shift''' (Fx default on Windows & Linux)
    * 6 = '''Ctrl + Alt''' (Fx default on Mac from Fx14) (Chrome/Safari default on Mac)
    * 7 = Ctrl + Alt + Shift
    This should take effect as soon as you OK the dialog, so you can experiment in a separate tab. Other combinations are available if you want to try them. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Ui.key.contentAccess (inaccessible at the moment?)

  • At YAHOO: "Sorry, comments didn't load correctly; things may not work." Spinning circle ... IE works correctly.

    AT YAHOO comment section: "Sorry, comments didn't load correctly; things may not work." I get a spinning radial circle - failing to load comments. Firefox 8 worked fine. Help?

    To cor-el,
    I followed your suggestions and ultimately through the process of elimination found the problem. One of the add-ons, "Do Not Track Plus" was the culprit! In that add-on under settings a presentation of all of the sites "blocked" appear. By un-checking the "Facebook Connect button" voilà! Problem solved. The Yahoo comment tab now loads and works correctly.
    cor-el - Thanks for your help and consideration. I very much appreciate it. You're a champ! ~ mitchell1568

         <h3>Documentation for JavaScript Form Validator</h3>
         <HR size=1>
         <P>
         The Form validation script is distributed free from JavaScript-Coder.com<br>
         You can use the script in your web pages for free.
         </P>
         <P>
         You may please add a link to JavaScript-Coder.com,
         making it easy for others to find this script.<br>
         Checkout the <A href="http://www.javascript-coder.com/links/how-to-link.php
         target="_blank">Give a Link & Get a Link!</A> page.
         </P>
         <P>
         <B>JavaScript Coder</B><br>
         It precisely codes what you imagine!<br>
         Grab your copy here: http://www.javascript-coder.com
         </P>
         <HR size=1>
         <P>
         Using client side JavaScript is an efficient way to validate the user input
         in web applications. When there are many fields in the form, the JavaScript
         validation becomes too complex.
         </P>
         <P>
    The JavaScript class presented here makes the form validations many times easier.
         </P>
         <P>
         The idea is to create a set of "validation descriptors" associated with each element
         in a form. The "validation descriptor" is nothing but a string specifying the type of
         validation to be performed.
         </P>
         <P>
         Each field in the form can have 0, 1, or more validations. For example, the input should
         not be empty, should be less than 25 chars, should be alpha-numeric, etc
         </P>
         You can associate a set of validation descriptors for each input field in the form.
         <a name="3"></a>
         <h3>Using The Script</h3>
         1.Include gen_validatorv2.js in your html file just before closing the HEAD tag<br><br>
         <CODE>
         <script language="JavaScript" src="gen_validatorv2.js" type="text/javascript"></script><BR>
         </head><BR>
         </CODE><br>
         2. Just after defining your form,
         Create a form validator object passing the name of the form<br><br>
         <CODE class='htm'>
          <FORM name='myform' action=""><BR>
          <!----Your input fields go here --><BR>
          </FORM><BR>
         </CODE><CODE>
          <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"><BR>
          var frmvalidator  = new Validator("myform");<BR>
         </CODE>
         <br>
         <br>
         3. Now add the validations required<br><br>
         <CODE>
              frmvalidator.addValidation("FirstName","alpha");
         </CODE><br><br>
         the first argument is the name of the field and the second argument is the
         validation descriptor, which specifies the type of validation to be performed.<br>
         You can add any number of validations.The list of validation descriptors are provided
         at the end of the documentation.<br>
         The optional third argument is the error string to be displayed if the validation
         fails.<br>
         <br>
         <CODE>
              frmvalidator.addValidation("FirstName","alpha");<br>
              frmvalidator.addValidation("FirstName","req","Please enter your First Name");<br>
              frmvalidator.addValidation("FirstName","maxlen=20",<br>
                   "Max length for FirstName is 20");          <br>
         </CODE>     <br>
         <br>
         4. Similarly, add validations for the fields where validation is required.<br>
         That's it! You are ready to go.

         <h3>Example</h3>
         The example below will make the idea clearer<br>

         <h3>Some Additional Notes</h3>
         <LI type="disc">The form validators should be created only after defining the HTML form
         (only after the </form> tag. )<br>
         <LI type="disc">Your form should have a distinguished name.
         If there are more than one form
         in the same page, you can add validators for each of them. The names of the
         forms and the validators should not clash.
         <LI type="disc">You can't use the javascript onsubmit event of the form if it you are
         using this validator script. It is because the validator script automatically overrides the
         onsubmit event. If you want to add a custom validation, see the section below
         </LI>
         <A name="5"></A>
         <h3>Adding Custom Validation</h3>
         If you want to add a custom validation, which is not provided by the validation descriptors,
         you can do so. Here are the steps:
         <LI type="disc">Create a javascript function which returns true or false depending on the validation.<br>
         <CODE>
              function DoCustomValidation()<BR>
              {<BR>
                var frm = document.forms["myform"];<BR>
                if(frm.pwd1.value != frm.pwd2.value)<BR>
                {<BR>
                  alert('The Password and verified password does not match!');<BR>
                  return false;<BR>
                }<BR>
                else<BR>
                {<BR>
                  return true;<BR>
                }<BR>
              }<BR>
         </CODE><br>
         <LI type="disc">Associate the validation function with the validator object.<br>
         <CODE>
         frmvalidator.setAddnlValidationFunction("DoCustomValidation");
         </CODE><br>
         </LI>
         <P>
         The custom validation function will be called automatically after other validations.
         </P>
         <P>
         If you want to do more than one custom validations, you can do all those
         validations in the same function.
         </P>
         <CODE>
              function DoCustomValidation()<BR>
              {<BR>
                var frm = document.forms["myform"];<BR>
                if(false == DoMyValidationOne())<BR>
                {<BR>
                  alert('Validation One Failed!');<BR>
                  return false;<BR>
                }<BR>
                else<BR>
                if(false == DoMyValidationTwo())<BR>
                {<BR>
                  alert('Validation Two Failed!');<BR>
                  return false;<BR>
                }<BR>
                else<BR>
                {<BR>
                  return true;<BR>
                }<BR>
              }<BR>
         </CODE><br>
         where DoMyValidationOne() and DoMyValidationTwo() are custom functions for
         validation.
         <A name="6"></A>
         <h3>Clear All Validations</h3>
         In some dynamically programmed pages, it may be required to change the validations in the
         form at run time. For such cases, a function is included which clears all validations in the
         validator object.<br><br>
         <CODE>
         frmvalidator.clearAllValidations();
         </CODE><br>
         <br>
         this function call clears all validations you set.<br>
         You will not need this method in most cases.
         <a name="7"></a>

    The code is not working because you made a mistake somewhere, duh! So figure out what (hint: firefox javascript console, it's your friend) and fix it!
    And next time when you post code: use the [ code ]  tags to pretty format your code, as it is now it's unreadable.
