Used " lorraine Project" and now ipod wont update

Itunes and my Ipod have been a real stress in my life latly and this new problem isnt helping because its the first one i cant fix. The other day i came to my computer clicked itunes and it didnt open. Came on here read about the lorraine project. I used that project and then itunes opened. I then tried to update my ipod and it didnt work. My computer would make the sound saying ti was connected but itunes would not recognize it. So then i did what i usually do, control panel, delete itunes, explore my program files delete the folder "bin" in ipod folder and totally delete itunes in program files and then restart. Did that and then it wouldnt open. i need serious help. i need this to work!!!!

hi DJ!
try the Lorraine technique again to see if you can get itunes opening again. if you do get it opening, and if you still don't see the ipod, first check:

... but if no joy with that, try steadily working through this one:

keep us posted.

TS1382 i have my ipod nano 2nd generation for about 4 years then my friend stole it and gave it back 2 years later which was about 3 years ago. i havnt used it since and now it wont turn on.

i just want to know how to get it to start working again.

You would have to buy a new battery like this:

And then replace the battery. Here is a tutorial:

The replacement battery above also includes some tools although you should have a small screwdriver. After that you should be good to go.

Problem with IOS 6 download and now ipod wont work

i got a notification about the new IOS 6 version to download and so i accepted and downloaded it...the download completed but then my iPod went black and never came back on. i gave it time to turn on by itself but nothing happened. i went home and plugged it in to itunes and it states my ipod is in recovery mode and that in order to pursue further action i need to restore i have restored it multiple times and nothing happens. it just verifies restore with itunes and says its waqiting on ipod but nothing ever happens. what do i do now? i need my iPod up and running soon!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

ALL of your music should be on your computer in itunes. Is it not?
How did it get on your ipod in the first place if not from your comptuer?
Everything on your ipod should be on your computer and you should be syncing regularly.

My ipod touch needed to be updated so I did and now it won't turn on all it does is show the itunes icon and says toconnect it to itunes so I did and let it be updated and now it wont turn on and I tried resetting but nothing changed.

- See if resetting the iod helps.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next, connect the iPod to its syncing computer and if iTunes sees the iPod restore the iPo via iTunes.
- If iTynes does not see the iPod, place the iPOd in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPOd. For recovery mode see:

Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync

Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync. Keeps saying I need 26gb of free space which it didn't say before I downloaded the update. It doesn't make sense. It keeps saying:
The iPod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library. (additional 26gb required)
This makes no sense because before the new itunes update there was no problem with me not having enough space. I have 5gb of free space now and I had 5gb of free space before I downloaded the itunes update. Nothing should've changed. And I should not need an extra 26gb of space. How do i fix this problem so I can my ipod normally again.

Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
Come back with the results.
An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

and as necessary:
- 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/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- 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:

If that doesn't work, you should restore your iPhone as described here. Note you may have to try to get into the restore state more than once to succeed.

I recently updated my phone to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone. It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up what should i do?

I recently updated my iphone 5 to IOS 8.0.2 and now it wont turn on it just says to connect to itunes and when i do the only option it gives me is to restore iphone because it is in "recovery mode". It says it will delete all my media but i didn't do a back up and i don't want to lose my photos, what should i do? (I never used iCloud to back them up either).

If it's in recovery mode, the data is already gone. Why did you never back up your important data?

I have tried to install new update on iphone 5 and now it wont turn on when i plug it in the charger it just shows i need to connect to itunes.

Given the state your device is in you have already erased your old stuff. You have an image on the screen that says, "Connect to iTunes." That's what the image means. So you will need iTunes on your computer.
