Update software and now all of a sudden Nano useless!!

My Nano was working perfectly. I updated the lastest software per the new itunes software suggestion and all of a sudden my nano does not even get close to working. It wiped all my memory from the ipod and now itunes doesn't even recognise the ipod and windows presents the message "the file or directory /ipod_Control/itunes is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility"
I am so fustrated by my 3rd (yes third time) nano that I don't know what to do. Please, PLease Help!!!

I have a 30GB ipod, just loaded latest ipod software 7 onto my laptop and then onto my ipod now ipod useless. Folder with exclamation point appears in window. When I connect it to my computer it tells me that the ipod is corrupted and needs to be restored to factory settings. When I click restore my ipod disappears from the LH screen and the update process stops almost immediately once I click restore. I have removed all ipod software from my computer and then reinstalled 7 and still no change....not really sure what I can do next or if is futile and time to purchase a new one???? Please Help!!
Thanks much, Malteezgrl

    I did not use my computer yesterday, and now all of a sudden, Firework does not open at all after clicking on its icon or starting as a program. I did not download any upgrades or anything else, and I have Norton 360 version 3. I can open Internet Explorer, but that's not my default browser, so I have no problem with the Internet connection.
    What could be the problem, how can I restore my browser without losing my bookmarks, settings, etc?

    If you close Firefox, then start Firefox in Safe Mode, does the problem still occur? For instructions on starting in Safe Mode, see [[Safe Mode]]. Extensions can sometimes be the cause of problems. If the problem does not occur in Safe Mode, then you can disable your extensions one-by-one until you find out which one is causing the problem. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] Update Firefox, see [[Updating Firefox]]

    I had no problem connecting to my network and now all of a sudden I can't connect my iPad.  Instead of prompting me for a password it comes back and says unable to join the network ("name") and then the option is Dismiss.  Anyone else have that problem?  I've gone thru all my settings and can't seem to find a way to log into my network.  Don't get the option to put in my password.  It just give me the name of my network and option of dismiss instead of password.

  • Recently downloaded new software and now all of my wife's contacts appear in my contacts. How do I change this?

    Recently downloaded new software and now all of my wife's contacts appear in my contacts. How do I change this?

    I suggest creating a separate AppleID for iCloud for each individual and using the same one for iTunes. By having a separate one for iCloud you can keep your contacts separated, have more iCloud storage (5 gigs each instead of sharing 5 gigs) and each have your own iMessage contact. Otherwise you both will be able to see each others imessages. You can still use the same AppleID for the iTunes Store to share music and app purchases. The iPhone "Settings" has different location for inputting your iCloud and iTunes AppleID.

    If you mean finding your IP address you have to enter the router's settings via a web browser. and go to the Status page. It will likely be under the heading Internet Port. Then you can Google for:
    who owns XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
    where the x's is the IP address.

  • Tried to install itunes update software and now error message coming up

    I tried to install the itunes update today and now its not working.  error message 7 keeps coming up- I have tried to trouble shoot but still not working.  uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, still not working. HELP

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I have had my iphone 5 for 13 months now and have always had the same car charger (not an apple brand).  I recently downloaded the latest software update and now all of a sudden i keep getting the message that my charger isnt supported by my device.

    Is there anyway to fix this problem? Im seriously considering getting away from apple as bad as I hate too.  I love the apple OS but you can never get a hold of customer service, there is only one style of phone, and now apparently, you have to pay extra for "apple" accessories becasue others wont work. 

    Well I am having the same issue and I had not had to worry about getting a "licensed charger."  The poster who responded offered not real insite and was rude to boot.  I am also looking for the fix on this .  My iphone will not even charge now on any charger.  What the heck.  I am not trying to treaten anyone either when I say I am frustrated with my iphone which in my case I have only had for a few months.  I have already sent one in to be replaced and this is my second one.  I have had troubles since the update GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR .

  • Just updated software and now epson printer no longer works

    I'm frustrated.  I updated software ( as recommended by apple) and now my epson printer no longer is working. I've read through some threads about throwing the extension /System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext/Contents/MacOS/AppleUSBEthernetHost  away... and that is not working for me.  I cannot print. I have also followed the info on the apple site about deleting the printer and then readding it, all to no avail.  please help. thankyou.

    Without knowing anything about the printer, version of OS X installed, or how the printer is connected it is difficult to help you out. When posting please post specifics.

  • N900 - How to update software and Reset ALL data.

    If you have tried to reset an N900 from the settings menu on the device, you would have noticed it would have left all your data intact.
    Sometimes you want to start from scratch and delete all data in one go. 
    Here is how you do it.
    Its quite extensive, but comprehensive.
    From a windows PC
    You first need to download three pieces of software.
    The first software you need is called "Maemo Flasher", and this is the program that needs to be installed on your PC and can be found here:
    http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php
    Download the latest version of Maemo Flasher (which is currently 3.5 at time of posting this), and make sure you download the .exe file (maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2.exe).
    Install that file.
    Next you need the software for the N900 itself.
    That can be found here:
    http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php
    This page will ask you to enter your IMEI, with very clear instructions on where to find it.
    Follow the on screen prompts until you reach the download section.
    There are two pieces of software you need to download from there.
    eMMC content - This is the package to erase all data held on your 32GB storage.
    The Operating System.
    OS 2009
    PR 1.1.1
    PR 1.2
    There are, unfortunately, 3 different names for the OS.
    Latest version is "PR 1.2 version 10.2010.19-1".
    Download the latest eMMC package available, It's version 10.2010.13-2.
    The OS is a little more difficult to figure out which one you need.
    The notes alongside the software lets you find the right package easier.
    I found the best way to check is to do the following: (On the N900)
    Menu
    Settings
    About Product
    This will show you this image(or similar)
    Note the Version number on your N900's screen.
    Download the OS package that matches the Version on your device. As shown in the image above, using the red text as an example.
    For people that purchased the N900 in the UK, the OS package will probably be the same as the red text. But make sure you check.
    Software downloads complete.
    Place these two software packages in the following location on your PC.
    c:\program files\maemo\flasher-3.5
    You should now have two .bin files in the directory above.
    Next steps.
    Updating the N900 OS
    Your battery needs to be 100% full to prevent any crashes which could leave your phone dead.
    Turn your N900 off.
    Press and hold the U key on the keypad.
    Insert the USB cable (a USB symbol should appear on the top right of your N900 screen, and also the Nokia logo in the centre).
    You can now let go of the U key.
    On your PC: Navigate to the Start Menu and select Run.
    In the Run box, type: cmd. Then OK
    In the command window, type: cd\program files\maemo\flasher-3.5
    Type: flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.42-11.203.2_PR_F5_203_ARM.bin -f
    (the file name above may be different to yours, you will need to replace the filename with the filename of the software you downloaded).
    This image below shows the completed update of the OS, in the command prompt on your PC. This would have now removed any Apps you may have installed on the device, and reset the homescreens to how they were when you turned it on for the first time.
    Your personal data, such as Contacts, Images, SMS will still be on the device.
    So if you want to remove these aswell, follow the next steps.
    Resetting the Mass Memory
    Your battery needs to be 100% full to prevent any crashes which could leave your phone dead.
    Turn your N900 off.
    Press and hold the U key on the keypad.
    Insert the USB cable (a USB symbol should appear on the top right of your N900 screen, and also the Nokia logo in the centre).
    You can now let go of the U key.
    (If you have left the command prompt open on your PC from updating the OS in the previous section, ignore steps 5,6,7)
    On your PC: Navigate to the Start Menu and select Run.
    In the Run box, type: cmd. Then OK
    In the command window, type: cd\program files\maemo\flasher-3.5
     Type: flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R
    (the file name above may be different to yours, you will need to replace the filename with the filename of the software you downloaded).
    This image below shows the completed reset of the eMMC (32GB HDD), in the command prompt on your PC.
    This would have now removed any data you had stored there. Including Music, Photos, Contacts, SMS..
    The complete reset of your N900 is now complete.
    I hoped this has helped.
    My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.
    If my posts are helpful, please give me some KUDOS using the green star on the left.

    Hmm, it's odd, because the wiki.maemo and another thread here say it works fine on 7. I have put flasher into xp compatibility, but the cmd box has no way to change it - at least, if it does it's through a back route that i'm unaware of.
    Attached the screen i see
    Edit: what "run" dialog box? is that the cmd box?

  • My apple tv was previously and now all of the sudden stopped playing sound from my macbook air via airplay

    I was using airplay to stream from my macbook air on my tv via apple tv and when i paused the sound stopped and now will not resume.  I have reset both and both are fully updated. Please help

    Dowload the program BEAMER, its far superior to AIRPLAY, theres a free 30 day trial. See if it works on that. Beamer is the best app for wifi of VIDS to your AppleTV
    http://beamer-app.com/
    also, try a diff VID format, AIRPLAY doesn’t support all VID formats (beamer does however).
    I cant live without beamer, you can multitask on your Mac  WHILE beaming high-def to your Apple TV, ….Airplay wont do that reliably.
    Process of elimination diagnosis!
