fourth generation-click wheel   Windows XP   4th generation

this happened to me AND I SOLVED IT!!!!!
i just let it unsued for 2 or 3 days, and then connected it to a power outlet, and it started charging, and everything worked as usual.
then it was dead again, and i did the same thing, and it worked again.
so just wait a few days, and then charge it to the light, not to the computer.
hope it works

    I recently downloaded Ios 7 and all the songs that i have purchased before, but deleted off my itunes because i didn't want them, showed up. I don't know how to delete them off my ipod and i really don't want them there. Is there a way to get them off? The songs dont show up in my itunes on my computer, just on my ipod with a download button next to them. I don't want them there anymore because i don't like that kind of music anymore and i don't know how to get them to go away.

    There is a similar setting for Videos on that Settings screen, so if you leave that 'on' you may have similar happening in the Videos app

    FWIW, I have no problems at all with Lion. Running on a Late 06 iMac with 3GB of RAM and it handles it fine. A little slow, especially compared to my Mid '11 iMac, but neither one of them have problems with the beachball. I push the '11 iMac especially hard with multiple Windows installes running in VMWare Fusion at the same time as well as Safari, Word, Excel, Mail, iTunes, iPhoto, and iCal all running.

  • My Ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode. I keep getting Error 9 and I have done everything they asked but nothibng helps.

    Help I think when I went to restore my ipod touch the date was wornign on the ipod and not it is stuck in recovery moder and I keep getting Error 9. I have tried everything but nothing works can someone help me?

    Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software."- it's taken from the Apple support web.

  • HT4623 I have first generation of iPod AND my kids don't remember its' pwd; We have lots of pics in there and would like to access it. How do we do it..?? :( Thank you!

    Hi guys,
    We found kids' iPod and can't access as nobody remembers Passcode for it.
    As far as I remember, we bought at the very end of 2008 or begining of 2009; thus, I assume it could be 1st Generation.
    It's has this silver back and it's very thin. It's 8 GB (on that silver back side of it).
    We would Love to retrieve kids' apps and pics, even though I just realized that it did not have camera in it, does it..?
    Question: How do we unlock it? We can go to Apple store, and they might try it by setting it to default, it means we will loose the data.
    Is there a workaround?
    Thank you!
    Paris

    There is a way to reset the pass code without resetting the iPod.
    But it's more complicated.
    To do it you will need a backup of your iPod in your PC, and also ibackup bot.
    You can download it from here http://www.icopybot.com/download.htm
    You can find how to reset the pass code from here http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-reset-restriction-passcode-on-iphone-ipad-using -ibackupbot/
    But for this you will have to apply the method given to reset the pass code. In the com.apple.springboard file mentioned there you will probably find a line mentioning the block.
    Just after that you will probably find a 4 digit number which is your pass code.
    If you don't, then you should do what it says in the web page that I mentioned but apply that to the pass code part.
    If you have any problems with this method just send me an e-mail at [email protected] and I'll help you.
    I myself had this problem with my restrictions pass code.

  • My ipod won't sync and it keeps coming up with an error message saying "internal error" or it tries to get me to restore from a backup. All of my music and movies have been wiped from my ipod and the apps don't work. The backups don't work either. help.

    I plugged my ipod touch into my computer to sync it and it came up with an error message saying that it encoutered an internal error and it refused to sync.
    I then unplugged it and plugged it back in and this time it told me that I needed to restore from a backup or set it up as a new ipod. I tried to restore from a backup but it came up with the error message "Backup session failed" every time. I then looked on my ipod and all of my music and movies are gone though it still says that they are on the ipod in itunes. I decided to use the restore function and let that finish. After restoring it still doesn't allow me to sync or back up and The music and movies can still not be seen. I am currently attempting to copy the music and movies to my ipod though this did not work with my apps as they transfered but when I attempted to open them they just crash... If someone could please help me it would be great. It is driving me crazy.

    If you get an error that says can't backup, try moving the existing backup file to a safe location and thry again. again. You can find the location of the backup file here:

  • When creating events my calendar has the GMT default and I've done everything to fix it. I need help. It's driving me crazy.a

    Time Zone issue in the calendar.

    ChurchGurl,
    I had the same problem on my newly acquired iPhone 6 as well as my slightly older iPad Mini (2), but the problem did not start until after I set up my iPhone 6 recently. The link (iOS: Troubleshooting issues with date and time - Apple Support) in Jason's response above is good advice and should fix the problem, but then your phone will not automatically adjust time zones if you go from one time zone to another. That may not be a problem much, or at all depending on how much you travel. Something else I noticed is that you are specifically referring to using the Calendar App. Be sure to check Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Time Zone Override (near the bottom under the "Calendars" section). If Time Zone Override is turned off, "events will display according to the time zone of your current location." I don't know for sure if the "location" it's talking about is determined by the "Time & Date" settings mentioned in Jason's response or some other calculation (GPS, Cell Signal, etc.). I'm thinking that if you turn off the feature to automatically set your time zone, it may affect your calendar as well.
    Possible Alternative Solution...
    My iPhone and iPad calenders sync with my Google Calendar, so this may be a whole different circumstance, although I encountered the same problem you're having where any appointments I created on my iPhone 6 (and suddenly on my iPad Mini as well, which created events properly before) listed the GMT Time Zone instead of my own. I checked the settings mentioned above, and checked the Calendar Time Zone settings directly in my Google account and all was correct... except for the iOS Time Zone issue displayed on the iOS Calendar. So, I created a new event in the iOS Calendar, and when I set the time for the event I made sure to change the Time Zone setting to my current/correct Time Zone, and then hit Done. After doing this a couple of times and changing/correcting the Time Zone each time I created the new appointment, it now uses the correct Time Zone for new events on both my iPhone 6 and on the iPad Mini as well, as if it synchronized the two back to the correct Calendar Time Zone settings. I suspect it had something to do with the fact that I set up a new iPhone on my account recently, but I don't know for sure. One question for you is whether you set up, restored, or added any new iOS devices to your account recently. It may or may not make a difference, but it's worth checking into. Good luck!

  • My iPod won't turn on and i've done everything

    I was driving and my iPod fell of the dash board and onto the floor, and now it won't turn on. I got an iHome for Christmas and have been using it so I know my iPod is fully charged. I tried connecting it with the USB so I can use it on iTunes and charge it just in case and my computer says it doesn't recognize it. It doesn't appear under devices so I'm unable to restore it.
    I've only had it for alittle over a year, what the heck is wrong?

    Try these.

  • One of my blackberry playbook email accounts quit working and I have done everything in my power to get it back up and going to no avail. I finally deleted it and tried to put it back on. Forget that. What is up with this? I have had playbook from the sta

    now i am really frustrated with it. Every single update has robbed me of battery power which began with about 8-10 hours of usage and now I am lucky if I get 2 hours. It isn't the battery. It has something to do with the updates to the OS. It was fine until the first one and it has only gotten worse each time. I have had three email accounts on here since they started with the message app and now it has gone crazy. It gives me a server error message each time. I put in the same settings for it as the ones on my laptop to no avail. I am ready to scream. I have worked for days trying to get this email account back on my BB playbook, NOT!  And also I want another reader on here. Kobo is great, but I would love to have another option as well. I tried to put some pdf books on it a few days ago and they wouldn't show up when I put them on. Some did and some didn't. I am so frustrated with playbook. I have loved it till the last 2 weeks. Now, I am extremely frustrated to say the least. Well I have been upset about the battery thing almost from the get go. Can anyone help with the email thing. My email is a bellsouth account. I have 2 yahoo accounts on it and they seem to be fine, but afraid to take them off and re-put them all back on lest they should do the same thing.

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.
