If you tried all the steps listed in the other post, then it is dead. Either send it off to be repaired (http://www.iresq.com or Google for other sites) or buy a refurbished one at the Apple Online Store.

New iPod with FireWire connection?

When I plug in my new video iPod to the FireWire connection, the screen says "FireWire connection not supported. Please use USB cable." I was just wondering if anyone knows a way to use FireWire with a new video iPod.
Thanks,

iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

It is impossible to use firewire to transfer media off your computer to your 5g Video iPod. However you can still use the firewire cable to charge your iPod.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod with Color will not connect to G5

I recently bought a used iPod with Color display with a 60 GB drive for use in the car. I have a BMW with the cable that accommodates an iPod. I plugged it into the G5 with all my music on it and.... nothing.
I tried plugging it into my work PC and it connected. Then I went over to my daughter's new iMac and it connected perfectly. While I was there, I decided to "restore" the iPod since it was used and I was not sure what might have been on it previously. Restore went great.
Went over to my G5 and plugged it in. This is when it gets weird. As many of you know the G5 has three USB ports. One conveniently located in front and two in back. Obviously my first try was the one in front...... again, nothing. So I tried the two in back. The top one gave me..... nothing. But the bottom one seemed to like the iPod and it connected. I gave the iPod a new name and merrily started loading it up with music. I got 4 or 5GB worth onto it when all of a sudden I got the dreaded "Device Removal" warning.
I sort of froze and wondered what to do next. Since I had already gotten the "Device removal" warning I decided that unplugging it would be ok. So I did so and wait a few minutes before connecting the iPod once more. It connected alright but now I got a message saying that "iTunes cannot read the content of iPod "iPod Color". Go to summary tab in iPod preferences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factory settings".
So I click OK and look at the summary. The iPod is listed on the left under devices but now the name is displayed simply as "iPod" and not iPod Color as I had named it. Capacity is n/a (can't read it) and software version is shown as 1.2.1. Serial number is also listed. I hadn't transferred much music onto it yet so I decided to just go ahead and restore it.
I got the "Are you sure you want to restore the iPod.." message and I click "restore". At this moment nothing happens for about 2 minutes. iTunes is frozen and then I get a message that pops up and says, "The iPod "iPod" (note the wrong name) could not be restored because it could not be found". I click ok, I unmount the iPod and here we sit.
I have tried this over and over several times on this G5 with EXACTLY the same results. I have tried two other cables and we get the same thing. I also tried restarting the G5 with the iPod plugged into the USB port that works and got the same thing with one minor variation. When I went to restore the iPod this time, it actually started the process. We got the blue horizontal barber shop pole and I really though we had a break through, but after about 15 seconds I got the message that "The iPod "iPod" (still the wrong name) could not be restored because it could not be found.
I'm not quite sure what to try next. I can't decide if the problem is with the OS (USB ports not all working) iTunes itself (maybe I can install a different version?) of the iPod. The iPod by the way was sold to me by a guy on eBay who reconditions the devices. He seems pretty competent so I think the iPod itself is in good working order.
Anyone have any suggestions? I appreciate your ideas.

Physician - heal thyself!!!!!!
Well after pick away at this problem for a few weeks (alone) I think I have solved the problem. Through my countless iterations of trying every combination of plugging and unplugging various USB devices in various USB ports, I realized that the one combination I had not tried was unplugging EVERY device from the G5 itself including the keyboard. But wait, I need the keyboard to input text into the computer don't I? I had completely forgotten that there are two USB ports on the back of my Apple monitor. So I plugged the keyboard into the port on the monitor and guess what? The G5 not only recognized the iPod but allowed me to restore factory settings and actually sych it with iTunes.
So, what I learned is that this G5 will not work with this 60 GB iPod with Color screen unless it is the ONLY USB device plugged into tone of the three USB ports. Right - I am sure the Apple Engineers view this as a "feature". Shyaa - right!
Well, it not idea but at least it works. It's pain to unplug every other USB device when you want to sych your iPod but I suppose that's the price we pay.
Is the question answered? No, not really. I still don't know if it's a hardware problem, an OSX problem, or an iPod problem. My guess is that since it's a G5 running a Power PC chip, the fellas at Apple won't give this a second look.

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

I have the iPod touch and I had iTunes on my computer. I was prompted to update my itunes. When I was going to, it said first I should sync my ipod, so, with it connected to my laptop, and itunes on, I did so. Now that it finished, it's messed up!

First of all, I have an iPod Touch which is connected thru my Windows 7 laptop. It has been working find up til now. I have been prompted to dl the latest iTunes update, so I clicked to do so. But I was advised to sync my iPod first, which I did. As soon as that was finished, I got an Apple logo on my iPod and an an empty loading bar. I went to a discussion forum on Google where they said "uninstall iTunes" so I did. I then re-installed iTunes 10 and nothing changed, so I uninstalled it again. One thing I noted was that "Deborahs iPod" was no longer on iTunes when I did re-install it. So now I am at the point where I have a "dead" iPod with only Apple logo and bar against a black bg and nothing else. And I do not currently have iTunes installed on my laptop. My iPod is plugged into it. What do I do know??? Thanks very much for any help.

- Do you have to right boxes checked in the Tones pane of iTunes for the iPod to get them synced to the iPod:
- Were the tones purchased with the same account as all the other media on the iPod?

IPod still not connecting with windows

I recently got a replacement iPod from Apple. I connected my iPod with my computer and the "Do not disconnect." sign shows up instantly. It was there for over 20 hours so I disconnected it. I checked out the 5 step guide for Windows to recognize the iPod, but it still doesn't work. I'm using the exact same cable and USB port that I used on my old iPod. The iPod is not recognized by my PC or by iTunes. When using the iPod updater, the only option available is "restore" and I already tried that. Whenever I connect my iPod to Windows, it always says "USB device not recognized." and the iPod always goes to the "Do not disconnect." screen. Can anyone help me?

I have a similar problem, excpet that my ipod just stopped being recognised by itunes, although Windows Exploere recognises it. When I run the updater, it keeps telling me to plug in my ipod (even when it is plugged it) and both the update and restore buttons are greyed out.
No hardware has been installed since the ipod was last working properly.
I've tried everything suggested at the website... I've reset the ipod, installed, uninstalled and reinstalled the latest versions of updater and itunes repeatedly, performed restarts running only the ipod drivers using system config, nothing works. I've tried the ipod on both firewire and USB2 connections with the same result - Windows Explorer sees the ipod, but not itunes or ipod updater.
I figure the ipod needs to be restored to its factory settings, but how do I do this if the software to do so won't recognise the ipod? Is there a hardware option to do a complete restore/reset?

Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
