Why does my ipod and computer hate me?
Okay, i spent 2 weeks trying to get my ipod music INTO my itunes library. It worked! I was happy, lahdeedahdeedah. Then (of course) my computer crashed and i have had to get it reformated again. I kept all the papers that helped me get my ipod music into itunes from the last time, and i thought id just try to do it again! But it turns out, nothing will work! I think the problem lies in "My Computer". There is no "F" file ( where the ipod was) anymore! Putting the ipod into disk mode, does nothing in "My Computer". When the guy reformatted he must have erased my "F" file or something! I am at my wits end, please help if you can.
Chels'
As soon as I get back to school I got a virus and everything was gone. I thought I could do the same thing and use my ipod as a hard drive well at first I thought it was working and then my music disapeared. Now it isn't showing up on itunes or my ipod!!!! Am I a lost cause???? I even used a gift card to purchase $25 worth of songs can I still get those back because it is saying that I can't download them again. I AM NOT paying that money again. HELP PLEASE!!

why does my iPod classic freeze up when i plug it in to my computer
It's not a "fix," actually. If that is a 4th gen iPod connected using USB, you need to do what it says and plug it in to the white square power adapter that originally came with those models. Later Apple power adapters should work; third-party adapters may or may not work. It has something to do with voltage. The USB connection to computer does not provide the required voltage (although it's obviously fine for normal syncing and charging).
If that iPod is connected to a FireWire port, it apparently provides the required voltage, because that step does not come up during the Restore. That model was a transition between iPod connecting to FireWire and connecting to USB. Earlier models required FireWire. Later models only used USB.
If you don't have an adapter, and there is an Apple Store nearby, I guess you could take it to the store's Genius Bar. I'm sure they have a power adapter there, to complete the Restore. (Just don't let them re-do the Restore on a Mac, if you use a Windows PC. Different storage formatting.) -
Why does my ipod nano turn off and on?
why does my ipod nano turn on and off?
Error 9
This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
Did you try everything above, including trying on another computer? If so then
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Try:

Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol. I can't do anything with my ipod now!
Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

What happened to the youtube app and why does my ipod keep crashing?
I updated my ipod touch 4g to iOS 6.0 and what happened to the youtube app? And why does my ipod keep on crashing when ever I go to the app store? Now i can never buy anything!!! or watch youtube videos and I'm always on youtube!!!!!!!!
As has been very well publicized in the news and all over the internet and forums, youtube is not part of ios 6. Google it.
You can get the app from the app store if you like.
Have you tried the basics from the manual to stop the crashing?
Restart, reset, restore. -
