I am trying to start up my new iPod. I plug it into iTunes on my cmoputer and nothing happens. The screen on the iPod is just a grey screen with "iOS 6" on it. There are no icons, no slider bar, nothing. What happened? What do I do?
Try:
- 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.

When I plug in my new iPad into my macbook, it doesnt show up
bought a new ipad- when I plug it in to my macbook, it doesnt show up...
Does your MacBook have the latest iTunes (11.0.1)? Assuming it does, try opening iTunes, then plug in your iPad.

My USB ports Using too much power with nothing plugged in.
So i have this macbook pro mid 2009 model. Whenever i boot the computer up, there's this message that comes up. USB ports must be shut off because its using too much power blah blah blah. Theres nothing plugged into them!
Everything works, camera and all that, but the USB ports.
Do i need to download anything to get them to working?
Is it with the logic board?
or idk what to do!
Please help!Have you tried an SMC reset and PRAM reset?
SMC Reset
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer’s power cord and disconnect peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Reset PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
If that doesn't help, perhaps re-installing the 10.7.2 update using the combo (unless you already tried this):
OS X Lion Update 10.7.2 Client Combo
repairing disk permissions before and after updating. -

This method is exactly how I'm trying to get my music on my new iPod touch, it starts downloading but then stop and says unable to download at this time. What the **** is going on ?
Try going to Settings>Store and sign out and sign back in.
It also could be due to an Apple server problem. and yu will just have to wait and try again. -

Ipad2 Camera Connection Kit
When I connect using the USB option I get a screen on the ipad which says "Accessory Unavailable. The attached accessory uses too much power"
What should I do please?
DavidI believe your camera uses a micro SD card. The CCK accepts the full size SD card. Do you have a SD card adapter to plug the micro into?

Get "using too much power" message when charging with USB
I have a 4th gens iPod Touch that appears to have a number of issues:
1. get "using too much power" message when charging with USB
2. can't re-boot
3. unable to access iCloud Backup, Ignore and Settings button inactive
4. unable to unlock unit when using the Home button to turn the unit onTry:
- 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 another cable
- 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.

I am not very familiar with the ipad2. I wished to transfer some photos from my pc (not an apple pc but that is the only one I have) to my ipad2 as I thought it would be easier to cull them, edit, crop etc to create albums for our recent trip (the photos are already on the pc and no longer on the camera memory card). When I place the usb stick on the adaptor and stick it onto the Ipad2 I keep getting 'device uses too much power/ requires too much power' message. I read somewhere on the internet that a usb hub could be used to solve the issue but that did not work either. What am I doing wrong? Is there actually a way around this problem. If not why does apple sell this product for Ipad users at all?
Thank you for any help/ solution you can offer.
RegardsI'd ask that on the iPad forum.

When I connect my Ipad mini to my camera via lightning to usb camera adapter all i get is a message "The attached accessory uses too much power."Any solutions
It depends on the camera, but some have a special mode for offloading photos but not trying to charge the camera through the USB port. For others, you may have to pull out the SD card (if that's what it uses) and use the Lightning to SD card reader instead.
Maybe if you told us what camera you are connecting, somebody here with the same model can give you more specific information. -
When I connect my Nikon coolpix S9200 to the camera adaptor I get a message saying this device uses too much power, how can I overcome this?
You are probably seeing this message because the camera uses the same port to charge it. The iPad can not supply the power to charge devices from it's dock connector. Also if you use the SD card adapter you are not using up the camera's battery for transferring the photos.

My PC Shuts Down When I Plug In My New IPod Nano 3rd Gen.
The title of this post pretty much says it all. Got me my new iPod Nano 3rd gen. yesterday. Brought it home, booted up the puter, loaded iTunes and plugged that sucker in. Well first iTunes kindly instructed me that I would have to download it's newest software, which I did.
Then soon afterwards when I thought i was set, I plugged in my new 3rd gen iPod Nano to the pc and as soon as I did that my pc shut down completely, and restarted. Shut down is putting it mildly, I mean it just went 'kablink" and then was restarting.
I tried uninstalling iTunes, cleaning my temp folder, my internet cache, then reinstalling iTunes anew, still nada. All to no avail, people, because each and everytime I plug in my new iPod Nano, no sooner than i do this my pc summarily goes "kablink" on me and starts booting up again.
NOW I STILL have my iPod Nano 2nd gen, and it works fine, even with the newest iTunes software, it doesn't screw up my pc like the new 3rd gen iPod Nano does.
Now I am to conclude that the problem lies in the 3rd gen iPod itself. How could it not? My iPod Nano 2nd gen works absolutely fine, and everytime I plug in my new iPod Nano, I shut down in a flash withtout fail. Anyone of you have this error? I would love to know short of calling iTunes tech support about what to do about this, this is a MAJOR bummer for sure. Now I have to be concerened about whether or not I am ever going to get this thing to work now.
Is the iPod broken? If not why the shutdowns then? Please advise. Many thanks in advance.Hey, I bought an iPod nano 3rd gen yesterday and I have exactly the same prolem you are describing in your message. Have you found any solution to this?
