how can i save me data stored on a non responding ipod classic and says you need to format before using it?
in another way : how can i save my date stored on my classic iPOD as a external hard .... when that msgs appears .... volume doesn't contain a recognized file system , make sure the file system is loaded .... then , you need to format ??? can anyone help ?It sounds like the iPod's storage has data corruption. You may be able to treat it like an external drive and use data recovery software on it, but it probably won't work because the system is telling you that the drive needs to be formatted before it is recognized.
If the problem is data corruption and there is no hardware-related problem on the iPod's hard drive, a Restore should fix the problem. But this will obviously erase the iPod's hard drive. -
When I hook up an Ipod the computer says it isn't hooked up
I have an Ipod and i have Itunes 7 and it works fine then when i hook up my friends Ipod (The newest generation) alls it does is charges it doesn't show up on itunes and i can't put songs on it. What do I do?
Hi, Elliot13,
If the iPod doesn't show up in either iTunes or Windows Explorer, as I take to be the case, have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
If you can see it in Windows Explorer, check out this article . -
Apple Windows drivers on USB, but Windows says I need to format USB to use it
I set up a 16GB USB drive as my Mountain Lion install disk via the Mountain Lion Installer app. I ran BootCamp and had it download and put the Windows drivers also onto the USB stick.
Installed Windows and got to the part where it says I have no drivers.
So when I now put in the USB drive to install the drivers, Windows is saying "You need to format the disk in drive E: before you can use it. Do you want to format it?" ...but that's where the drivers are.
How was the USB stick formatted originally? I don't know, presumably with whatever the default from Disk Utility was when I wiped it.
Ay suggestions?
(e.g....reformat the USB with Windows, reboot into OS X (assuming that works), then have Boot Camp Assistant re-put the Windows drivers on the USB, then reboot into Windows, etc? Trying that now.)
Thanks.The drive must be formatted as FAT32, you can do that on Windows or OSX. Then put the drivers back on it, boot to Windows and install them.

I recently had my hard drive wiped out by a virus and had to reinstall windows and itunes. When I hooked up my ipod it did not transfer my songs from my ipod to my itunes library. How do I do this?
iTunes syncing is generally in one direction only, from the computer's iTunes library to the iPod. You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchsed from the iTunes Store).
However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your new iTunes library. (Going forward, you should use a backup strategy, and include your iTunes data in what gets backed up. Then, you would be able to recover your complete iTunes library, including things like playlists and ratings.) -

I have tried for the last several days to upgrade my ipod touch generation 2, from os 2.2.1 to 4.2 and I keep getting an unknown error (-1)
I have hit restore to original several times and nothing works and the error keeps coming up. I have unplugged all USB products (which is only my mouse) while trying the upgrade and again, nothing works to upgrade the operating system.
I want to install Apps to this ipod and can not without getting the current os system 4.2
HELP!
This is very frustrating as you can all imagine. And from all the websearching I have done, no one else has had this error. Would my canon software have any conflict with the upgrading of this ipod? I have not uninstalled the canon software but would if it would fix the problem. I used to get "no camera attached" when I hooked up the ipod to the machine, and have that now fixed.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you all.Thank you for the suggestion. I have read the "more like this" feed on the right hand side and tried what people have suggested and no luck in upgrading.
Any other suggestions? -

# Question
I am informed by FF that there are updates. When I click on them the window just says it's trying to connect to the server and never does. I am never able to update and I believe FF is now up to 3.6.17.
I have a Mac Powerbook with 10.4.11 and FF 3.6.13.
Joel E. Pittenger cell: 314-724-8820That is because that Firefox 3.6.x version has been released later than the Firefox 4 version.
If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

I am the administrator of my MacBook Pro, which I share with my kids. One of them forgot his password, so as the admin I changed it for his account, but when I try to see his account, it says I need to provide the keychain password. How can i get it? I have no idea how to sort this out...
First, make sure caps lock is not on.
You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select
▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:

i bought a second hand ipod 5 and the original owner forgot the email and password and i can't restore the ipod and it says i need the original apple ID but i dont know it could anyone help me??
If you can access the device: Tap Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings.
If you can't do that then you need to Restore it as New:
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.
You can also try using DFU mode:
Placing your device into recovery (DFU) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information.
