Trouble with latest iPod updater

When i downloaded and opened the latest iPod updater, it says "Error reading setup initialization file" and i press ok and it quits. Anybody else having this problem or know how to fix it?

it's probably not because of the ipod updater.
they have nothing to do with eachother.
but considering, delete the updater.
see what happens.

4s with latest software update will not power off, text will only vibrate, iPod only works with earphones. When I sync it with iTunes it works until power save mode starts, then back to not powering down, making text sounds, or playing iPod out loud.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...

Be sure to make an appointment first...

I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

Maybe this will help:

As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

Latest iPod updater: WARNING

Hi,
As a teacher constantly switching from my iMac at home to PCs at school, I have been using my windows formatted iPod on both kinds of computers, the automatic synchronization being done on the mac at home.
I performed the latest iPod update (windows version) today, and my mac could no longer synchronize to iPod.
I had to go back to the former windows version of the iPod updater (2006-01-10).
Now everything is back to normal.
So, if you want to go on using your iPod in both worlds, beware!

"So, if you want to go on using your iPod in both
worlds, beware!"
Apple isn't stupid. The whole reason they formatted
the iPod for Windows is so you can have the
best of both worlds. Something must be messed with
yours.
Of course Apple isn't stupid... and their updates have never caused any problem...
What am I to imagine such an occurence?
As you suggested, "mine" must be messed, though it is currently working fine with the previous update.
I will therefore trash it rightaway and order a new one, which I will duly update with the latest windows updater.
With thanks & best wishes,

Latest ipod updater just freezes

I've got the latest ipod updater here and I've been trying to get my ipod updated because one day it just decided to stop working in itunes for some reason, and the updater freezes whenever it loads. It was getting the "ipod service error" thing before, but I reinstalled and now I've upgraded to just freezing. For a minute the first time I loaded it up it showed a list of ipods on the screen and looked like it wanted me to pick one, but it froze on that screen too. What's going on here?
The ipod itself still works fine when i plug it into other things to listen to it... it's just the software that seems to be screwed. Thanks for any help, in advance.

Hi...
It doesn't "freeze" per se, like it does when the ipod is connected, but it just stays at initializing."
I've tried the solutions presented in that link more than a few times with no success.
Oh, second note:
"iPod Updater 2006-06-28 cannot continue because there are other applications using iPod. Please close all iPod applications and try again."
This is after initializing for awhile.

Losing some capabilities with an iPod update??

Has anyone encountered this before. I have the 60 gig iPod, purchased last fall when they came out. It worked fine, including using it as a hard drive to store photos and video from my Sony H1 digital camera. Last week I downloaded the latest iPod updater and on the weekend discovered that the iPod no longer works with the camera. iPod gives me the message that "no card is inserted" when hooked up with the camera.
Needless to say that I am ****** off that an iPod update has altered my iPod's capabilities in this way. Now I guess I will have to restore my iPod and avoid any "updates" in the future. Way to go Apple.

. Now I guess I will have to restore my iPod and avoid any "updates" in the future.
Better yet, simply sell the iPod and you will have no more hassles from Apple.

I am having all kinds of trouble with itunes and updating my ipad. when I open up itunes, it seems to just sit there, never going to itunes store. when I connect my ipad, I check update and it starts, but then I get this message:backup can't be saved on

I am having all kinds of trouble with itunes and updating my ipad. I open itunes up but it doesn't do anything except open to a blank screen. I try to access the itunes store but it won't go there. When I connect my ipad, and try to update it, it starts and then I get a message that says backup cannot be saved on this computer. I have tried everything suggested to no avail. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I have had problems with itunes. Sometimes I even get a message that I am not connected to the internet.
I have uninstalled and re-installed. Any help?

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play

After installing the latest ipod update some of my purchased songs no longer play (though they still play on the computer). When I tested it on another computer it claimed that computer was not authroied to play these songs even though I was just playing them directly off the ipod. Even more strange is that I alos have a number of songs loaded on my itunes from albums I loaded and I am fairly sure these songs were ones I recorded rather than purchased but now they appear on my purchased list.

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.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Mt computer has been freezing up on me lately and I think it messed up my Ipod when it quit right in the middle of downloading and got shut off.

That's because you jailbroke your phone. You can't get help here.

Installing the latest ipod updater

I have installed the latest ipod updater (10/25/2005 version) in my computer. However I don't know how to transfer it to my ipod mini. Called the Apple hotline but they said I won't get the answer from them unless I purchase the Apple Care. Can anyone help me out please?

Make sure you downloaded the windows version, and just run the application. It will determine if you need to update your iPod or not.

Hello, I'm having trouble with my ipod

hello, I'm having trouble with my ipod

Holding down the center/select button and the menu button will reboot your ipod. See if that helps. Also, I'd recommend something else- I had nothing but trouble with my ipod classic until I spent $20 to get Mac OS Mountain Lion. It did what you said and sometimes wouldnt play, or wouldnt power on...
Try rebooting your ipod and let me know what happens and maybe in the future obtain Mountain Lion to aide your ipod in functionality.
Good luck!

Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2?

Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2 ? My 2010 Macbook Air has crashed 15times since the 10.8.2 update. Have only once since owning it.

Turned out the hardware was bad. Apple exchanged it for a new Mac Air and the new trackpad works great. Thank goodness it was a defect. If the trackpads all worked like that I would have been bummed.

Trouble with safari after updating SL 10.6.8

I updated my OS last night to 10.6.8 and today, in Safari I find that I cannot view amazon.com When I open a page, much of it is blank. Anyone else having trouble with amazon after updating to 10.6.8?

(This is a copy of my post in this thread.)
I updated to 10.6.8 too, was suddenly unable to print to my before perfectly working printer (an HP Color LaserJet CP1515n hooked up to an AirPort Express), and started scouring the web for solutions. The more I tried, the more disappointed and frustrated I became. Then I came here, read about a possible solution in this very thread (the disk image 'Repair10.6.8.dmg') and became hopeful again.
But alas...
Sadly, this isn't working for me at all. I ran the script that supposedly fixes the print problems introduced in 10.6.8, but the print jobs still all pause the printer and fail with a 'broken pipe' error. It has nothing to do with the USB cable, as I can print just fine with the printer directly hooked up to my Mac wit that very same cable. I reinstalled the drivers, updated my printer's firmware, ran the repair script twice just to be sure, reset the printing system, even deleted all preference files with 'hp' in the name and having to do with printing, restarted my Mac. All with no result.
Man, this is so frustrating! Anybody with any other suggestions or possible solutions?

A little bit about drive S.M.A.R.T. status:
"The most basic information that SMART provides is the SMART status. It provides only two values: "threshold not exceeded" and "threshold exceeded". Often these are represented as "drive OK" or "drive fail" respectively. A "threshold exceeded" value is intended to indicate that there is a relatively high probability that the drive will not be able to honor its specification in the future: that is, the drive is "about to fail". The predicted failure may be catastrophic or may be something as subtle as the inability to write to certain sectors, or perhaps slower performance than the manufacturer's declared minimum."
