  • Why does my iPod show up in iTunes when it is not attached via usb? nor is it being charged.

    Is it something to do with how my wireless setup is set?  Or is it due to the new iOS 5 or iCloud.  Unless I have a logical answer, this is going to be a standing annoyance.

    If it's the same on the iPod, as it is on the iPhone, then you probably have "Sync with this iPod over Wi-Fi" enabled:
    Click on your iPod under "Devices" in iTunes and check the "General" tab.

  • Why wont my ipod show up in itunes i have downloaded the newest version and restarted my laptop but its still not working

    Can someone plz help

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Why doesnt my ipod show green or yellow

    My iPod Touch wont display certain colors. like when i watch the simpsons ther are red tinted! instead of yellow. and when an app that has green cover art will be black! and i need help. its been like this for a while now, and its disturbing me! I want my old ipod screen back!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Why wont my iPod show up in iTunes?

    When I plug in my iPod, with the charger thing, the chord, a small window comes up with an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle saying, "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started." What does that mean? I cant download my apps from my computer to my ipod, cant upload things to my iPod from my computer. So what do I do? I don't even know what that means. What's the Apple Mobile Device service? HELP.!!!!!

  • Why doesnt my ipod sync the new music?

    why doesnt my ipod sync the new music when i connect it to Itunes

    Hey myvalentine,
    The resolution depends on what method you're using to sync your iTunes content to your iPod. If I were you, I'd start fresh and go through the following article, choosing which method works best for you and reading through the instructions:

  • Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    Why would my iPod show a full battery when connected to power but when not connected it will no longer turn on

    For both
    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.
