Updated iPod now I have to plug into wall with adapter?

Hi,
New to this board and hoping someone can help.
Downloaded the iPod Updater last night and now my iPod is asking me to plug it into an external power source using an adapter. Why? I don't have an adapter. (I know I can buy one but I don't see why I should have to in order to complete the update). Looks like I can't use the iPod until I do so because the power adapter/wall plug icon always shows when I try to turn on the iPod.
Am I missing something here?
IBM Windows XP

1st Gen minis required a connection to the power adapter to complete the Firmware update. AC adapters were provided in the box with all 1st Gen minis. 2nd Gen minis do not need this step.
You'll need to find an adapter to complete the process. Sometimes an auto DC charger can also work.
No way around this requirement for the 1st Gen mini (and some earlier iPods as well).

Nothing. The message means you MUST restore your phone to factory settings. There's no way around this . Your phone is in recovery mode. That's the only way to get it out.

HT1414 I backed up my iphone, then did an update and now I have no contacts, music or apps. How do I get them back?

What do I do when my iPod touch wants me to plug into iTunes and asks for a password on the iPod touch and can't do it?

What do I do when the iPod touch asks to be plugged into it ouch and nothing happens. The PC asks to use password on iPod touch and it can't be done.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

HT201263 My iPod is stuck on the "Plug into iTunes" screen. What do I do???

So, my computer is telling me that I need to type in my password into my iPod to unlock it, but my iPod is telling me to "Plug into Tunes". I can't unlock it on my iPod and I've already tried putting it into recovery mode (or whatever you call it) multiple times doing it differently each time, but it's still not working. It was previously jailbroken (if that makes a difference), but I just want to restore it now so I can get it to work. Someone with answers, pleeeeeeeease help me!!!

... It was previously jailbroken (if that makes a difference),
It makes a difference. A jailbroken iPod Touch cannot be fixed.
Buy a new one.

Can i charge my iPod shuffle whilst listening to Music? (plugged into wall and using twin audio jack?

I want to connect my iPod shuffle to a telephone line so when people are put on hold they can listen to music, however the battery will die after some time.
Can i charge the iPod whilst listening to music simultaneously? (Plugged into wall not computer)

Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
The iPod will support playback and charging only if you have a wire that supports it. Since both audio out and electricity flow through the 1 headphone port you would need a cord of some sorts that will allow the iPod to charge and include audio out. As far as using it on a telephone. If the telephone you are using supports and audio input using the headphone jack then you could use the iPod shuffle as telephone music. If not than the iPod Shuffle may not be the best tool for you.

My Iphone has family emails that appear randomly when I try to update apps or generally have to log into my account. It comes up as my sister in laws address. She was once connected to our account when she got her phone at first. How can I remove?

My Iphone has family emails that appear randomly when I try to update apps or generally have to log into my account. It comes up as my sister in laws address. She was once connected to our account when she got her phone at first. How can I remove? There are only two other email address's associated with my account and hers was never one of them! I do have a cloud set up on my phone. I thought this issue had gone away when I canged my passwords, but I just registered a new phone yesterday and its happening again!
Can anyone help me?

Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, and all future updates will require you to enter the password associated with this ID, whether you are currently using this ID for purchases or not. If you are being prompted for your sister-in-law's Apple ID when updating it means that there must be one or more apps on your phone that was purchased using her Apple ID. (When she synced with your computer it may have transferred this app to your library. It was subsequently synced to your phone.) The only way to stop the prompt for her ID is to delete these apps from your phone and your iTunes library and repurchase them using your Apple ID.

I recently got my ipod replaced and i have its serial number. now i used to play a game on it which requires me to have its UDID for account transfer so how do i get its UDID when i dont have the ipod now. i have a new one now.

Podcasts have stopped updating and now I have to manually download from the store/libra

Starting about two months ago my podcasts stopped automatically downloading on my iPhone 4s so now I have to go into the store and download ea episode manually which is a PITA. I have tried deleting the podcast app and deleting the subscribed podcasts and then downloading and re-subscribed and still the same issue. I have checked all my settings and they match the settings in the podcast app. Also when I do manually download the date doesn't come through correctly, it always downloads as December 31,2000. My subscription setting is on as is cellular data. It's driving me crazy and I really miss the ease of automatic downloads. Please help. Thanks!!
