TS4006 This article does not address Ipod touch locked with passcode

What is the utility of "find my Ipod touch" if I elect to require a passcode to power on the device? Will the service work?
My reading of the PDF manual indicates that the "find my ipod" service will only work on devices without a passcode and only with wifi hotspots that have been previously used by the device (eg.: a McDonalds store where I have previously used my device and negotated the WiFi connection).
Is there any other Apple document that addresses this specific question?

Your iPod will have to be turned on, have your iCloud settings unchanged and have a connection to the internet in order to be tracked with Find My iPhone. The passcode will not prevent it from being turned on, in only prevents access past the lock screen. However, if the wifi network in question requires a password and the passcode on it is not known (so the password cannot be entered to join the network) it will not have a connection to the internet on this network and thus will appear "offline" in Find My iPhone. (If the password protected network has been previously joined, it will of course connect automatically and Find My iPhone will work.)

TS1369 After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

Why windows 8 does not recognize ipod touch model A1367 4th Generation?

Why window 8 does not recognize ipod touch model A1367 4th generation? and of course iTunes either.

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
(it applies to win 8)
Run this to help if it identifies the cause

Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?

Getting this error while opening a folder : This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel

Hi,
While trying to open a folder on my Windows 7 Home Premium, an error comes "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel." I tried searching on the net but did not get great support for the issue when it happens with folder opening.

Hi Nikunj Shah,
First, I suggest you download
Microsoft Safety Scanner or
Malicious Software Removal Tool to run a full scan.
The error messages here seems to be caused by the corrupted registries, which related with the folder association.
You may take a try to merge the following registry settings to reset the folder association, before that, remember to backup your registry settings first:

This file does not have a program associated with it...

Ok, I'm not awesome at technological troubleshooting, so if someone could help me, I would be grateful because I'm getting frustrated.
I'm trying to play a silly little game online and it's telling me I need Shockwave. I know I have it because I've played this game before (something time-wasting on addictinggames.com) and I found a file called Shockwave 11 in C:\\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11 with all sorts of things in it.
I checked my Add/Remove Programs list and it says I have Adobe Shockwave 11.5 and that it is used rarely.
Since there seems to be a glitch here that I don't understand, I went to the Download Shockwave page on this site and tried to download the latest version or whatever, if that would work. The gray progress bar moves across under the "Adobe Shockwave Player is now installing" line and then I get an error popup that says:
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel."
What am I supposed to do? What does this mean? What file? Huh??
I am running Internet Explorer 7 and have Windows XP.
I am a total noob and need to be spoken to like a child. Can anyone please help me?

I clicked on your link (thank you - where did you get that?) and installed the Full version, apparently successfully, though during the download there were a couple of components that were troublesome.
The error message I got during setup read: "Error opening file for writing: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Director\SWDNLD.EXE Click Abort to stop the installation, Retry to try again, or Ignore the skip this file." Retry did not work, despite having clicked it 10s of times. I clicked Ignore, then got the same message again, but about a different file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Director\SwDir.dll Clicking Retry again did not help move things along, so I ignored this one too. What does this problem indicate? Do I need to do something here?
Those are the only errors encountered during setup. I declined the Google toolbar. The dialog box says Successfully Completed; I clicked Close.
So I go to try to play this game as a test and it says "Installing Shockwave Components" and then I get the same error popup telling me that this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action and that I need to create an association in the Folder Options control panel!
What does this mean and how do I do it, since it appears to be critical to getting this thing to work...?

'This file does not have a program associated with it for perfoming this action'?

'This file does not have a program associated with it for perfoming this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel". Any help? This error message has never come up before. I have tried to open the page on 3 different devices but the same error message. All help is greatly appreciated as I need to print the page out for my course I am doing. Thanks all.

You get this when doing what? Can you post a link to the page that gives you this message?

Powershell shortcut gives"this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action"

Hi,
We have a server where powershell gives an error. The shortcut or the context menu for start button (replaced cmd in context menu) gives an error saying "this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action".
In some events, like going to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System Tools\Windows PowerShell.lnk and opening it results in bupkus. Nothing happens.
Browsing to C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\ and running powershell.exe directly or opening cmd.exe and typing powershell <enter> runs powershell as it should.
What gives?

This is more of an OS issue than a PowerShell issue, IMHO.

This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this ac

Hi all,
After creating an application for a WebDynpro project, when I execute the project (Deploy New Archive and Run) the application I am receiving then following error message.
"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in folder options in control panel."
Pls can anyone provide the solution.
Regards
Ravi

Maybe the problem its on the Run part. It is supposed to open a navigator and go to the URL of the application you just deployed.
Try deploying on one step and then Running on other.
If it is the Run then open the navigator and test your App.

You are posting in the "icloud on my mac" forum, but your profile mentions Windows. If using a mac, you need to have iphoto or aperture installed in order to receive new photos via photo stream. If using windows, try posting in the iCloud on a PC forum. You'll get better help there.

ITunes in Windows PC only launches at reboot does not recognize iPod touch

I have had this problem for sometime, but have lived with it. I have my iPod touch 1G connected to a Windows XP PC for syncing charging etc. If I unplug the iPod touch and use it for a while not connected to the PC and then plug in into the USB port, iTunes does not recognize the touch and I have to do a complete reboot of the windows PC. Is there a work around for this problem?

iTunes does not recognize the touch and I have to do a complete reboot of the windows PC
Is windows freezing for you undr those circumstances, or is something a bit different going on? (If you're getting an error message, let us know what it says.)

Windows does not show Ipod touch

when I connect to computer, it does not recognize the ipod touch

Thanks f/ this info, bobjbkln. Your remark, it's snide tone notwithstanding, reminded me I shouldn't be looking f/ the iPod in the Explorer, but rather in the Device Manager. In the Device Manager it IS recognized as a connected Portable Device.
That recognition does not address my additional issue w/ iTunes not starting up automatically when the device is connected, however. Likewise, if the device is connected when the computer is booted, iTunes does not automatically start up. Can you help me figure out why that is happening?
Thanks! Looking forward to your suggestion(s). Will appreciate your response having a kinder tone.
