Will rebooting my iPod affect my gaming progress?

Hey guys, I know this Is a common issue with the upgrade IOS6 thing? My iPod my touch is crashing on every app I go on, I'm going to reboot it soon, but will it affect my gaming progress? I have a games account, so are the scores and stuff saved on there?
Eg in subway surf, my high score is really high, and I was logged onto my game centre account when I set the high score, if I reboot my iPod, then reload it and log into the games centre, will the games go back to normal?

Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I have tried rebooting the ipod and reinstalling itunes but to no avail. My ipod is brand new and everything works but for loading music and videos.I run itunes from windows xp. Help please!!

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Was it setup via wifi?
Setup via iTunes when connected to this coputer/iTunes library?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?

I have a ipod touch 3rd gen that has been working fine until a week ago. I usually charge it using a power adapter in the house or using a car power adaptor. All of a sudden neither will charge my ipod. It does charge is I connect to computer.

I have tried different cords. Other Ipods charge fine. I have rebooted the Ipod. I don't know what else to do.

Hi,
Try resetting your iPod: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430.
If that doesn't work, try restoring it: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414.
If all else fails, you will have to place your iPod in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
Hope this helps!

I need help unlocking and rebooting my iPod touch.

i forgot my iPod touch pass code, and i cannot reboot it with the iTunes account because its connected to my step mothers account, who i do not speak with anymore. how can i reboot my iPod without the iTunes account

Only if:
If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
Yo can also do it with any computer with iTunes and an internet connection
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
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.

10.6.4 AFP - ACLs - Workgroup Manager :: changes need reboot to take affect

hello community
still new to OSX Server I am a bit confused regarding changes made to
AFP - ACLs - Workgroup Manager
do changes really need a server reboot to take affect?
scenario:
*Workgroup Manager ...*
User1
User2
User3
GroupFolder1 :: Members -> GroupSubFolder1.1 + GroupSubFolder1.2
GroupSubFolder1.1 :: Members -> User1
GroupSubFolder1.2 :: Members -> User2
*AFP shares & folders with ACLs ...*
Folder1 :: ACL read for GroupFolder1
SubFolder1.1 :: ACL read for GroupSubFolder1.1
SubFolder1.2 :: ACL read for GroupSubFolder1.2
(SubFolder1.1 + SubFolder1.2 are nested into Folder1
to make it clear)
this workz perfect!
if I now switch in Workgroup Manager the memberships to eg.
*Workgroup Manager ...*
User1
User2
User3
GroupFolder1 :: Members -> GroupSubFolder1.1 + GroupSubFolder1.2
GroupSubFolder1.1 :: Members -> User2 + User3
GroupSubFolder1.2 :: Members -> User1
this will only take effect when rebooting the server.
I tried to ...
start/stop AFP
restart ldap, by deselectingsaving/selectingsaving the SSL cert for OpenDirectoryService
restart the clients
nothing helped but restarting the MacMiniServer
server and all clients are running 10.6.4
cannot be that one has to reboot the whole machine to make AFP - ACLs - Workgroup Manager changes take effect?
ok I am running a rather small setup, but what if ya want to integrate a new user into a bigger environment? this will lead to a disconnect for all users connected or an "over-night-wait-time" for the new user, whilest scheduleing a reboot somewhere in the night? but even then what if people are connected in different timezones overseas via vpn?
where is the hook to make the settings take effect immediately after saving the changes?
any other info I can provide to reproduce/solve the issue?
rgds,
g.

Well that suggestion from the site referenced above about tearing the OD down, deleting the slapd.conf files and bringing it back up didn't work. 10.5 servers still see changes in OD as they happen and 10.6 servers don't see the change until around 10 minutes later.
Anyone run across this and fixed it?

ITunes updates songs, playlists, etc., but will not update iPod options

When I plug in my iPod (4G, 40GB), everything syncs as it should --songs, playlists, podcasts, etc. The same is true when I manually choose to update the pod. (i.e. from a context menu or somewhere else in the UI) However, I am unable to change any of the options for the iPod. This includes renaming, choosing disk access, etc.
When I attempt to make these changes from the "Preferences" dialog, iTunes will say "Updating iPod," etc. but while the changes appear in iTunes, they are not actually made on the iPod itself.
A similar situation occurs when renaming the iPod. Same as before, iTunes "goes through the motions" but doesn't actually change. The difference is that after the iPod is renamed, it will no longer update until the iPod is ejected and reconnected. iTunes gives an error message saying: "The iPod '[New Name]' cannot be updated. The disk could not be read from or written to." The name listed in the iPod's About menu is still the old name.
Info:
iTunes version: 6.0.4.2 (Win)
iPod firmware: 3.1.1
iPod connected via firewire
Gateway 500SE Windows XP Pro XP Pro SP2, P4 2.0Ghz, 1GB RAM

iPod freezing up can sometimes indicate a hard drive failure. To determine this, follow these steps:
Press menu + select until the apple logo appears.
With the apple logo still on the screen, press and hold select + rewind. You will soon see a screen that says "IRAM PASS HIT PLAY CONTINUE".
Press play/pause.
Using the forward button, navigate to "HDD SCAN" and select it.
Connect your iPod to the wall adapter.
Allow sufficient time for the scan to complete, it can take a couple of hours. Results such as a "HDD PASS" that appears in seconds or a minute or two, "SCAN NG" or "RD FAIL" indicate the iPod's hard drive is pooched and the unit will have to be replaced.
Freezing during sync can also happen if the ports are not high powered USB 2.0.

HT201628 My girlfriend accidentally rebooted her iPod during an update, and now it won't boot. How can this possibly be fixed?? She says the OS has been wiped. You know how to fix this??

My girlfriend believes she's wiped out the OS on her iPod 4th generation she said she did this by accidentally rebooting her iPod during an update, and now her iPod just shows the apple logo then fades to white. My question is, can this be fixed? Or is a new iPod necessary??

If you live near an Apple store take it in for diagnosis. Don't forget to make an appointment online first. If you don't live near a store, you may get help by searching "youtube" for DFU Restore ipod. This is not difficult to do but it requires proper timing to get the device into DFU mode.

TRIED EVERYTHING!!! computer will not recognize IPOD and no charging

Tried changing cords; tried reinstalling all software; tried to determine if conflicting software; ran ipod out of power and my computer still will not recognize when I plug it in. Backlight initially lights up but ipod does not show up in device manager, itunes does not recognize it and ipod will not charge---ipod will charge on Bose speaker platform though....ANY SUGGESTIONS??????

If none of the above help, then it may be an issue that requires service so why not take advantage of the warranty?
You can arrange online service here.
Service request.
Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.

Windows 7 will recognize one ipod but not the other?

I previously owned a 2nd gen iTouch, which would not be recognized by Windows or iTunes. The funny thing is, iTunes would recognize a 4th generation ipod nano that I also had. So I thought there was something wrong with my iTouch, so I went and bought a 4th generation iTouch.
I came home with it 2 days ago, and found that the same issue occurred. Windows 7 and iTunes will recognize my ipod nano, but not my new iTouch. I have attempted to use a friend's laptop, and both the Windows 7 and the iTunes will recognize both the nano and the iTouch, so I'm assuming that there's something wrong with either my laptop or the configurations in Windows 7.
I have already completed the uninstall and reinstall of iTunes and related programs as per the Apple Support instructions, to no avail. I've also checked to see that all my USB ports and devices are up to date. I was on the phone with Apple support for 4 times and in the Apple store today. I found that iTunes will recognize the new iTouch when I put it in recovery mode. (At which time it requests that I Restore my brand new iTouch. Then gives me a 'hardware error 1611', and the iTouch goes missing again.)
It would be very much appreciated if somebody would be able to give me a push in the right direction? Thank you so much!

They are different devices.
The ipod supports disk mode, the ipod touch does not.
The ipod can be use like a flash drive the ipod touch cannot.

PC will not recognise Ipod-have tried everything!

I have brand new 4gp ipod mini. Uploaded software-when it said to connect ipod I did. when it got to the screen on the uploding wizard thingie that asked about formatting the ipod the "next" button was not highlighted, so with no other option, I ticked the "tick here if you want to install software without ipod connected" and carried on.
PC will not recognise ipod as either a piece of hardware or in itunes.
It is connect via a USB 2 port which is on a USB 2 card. The ipod does charge so that bit is working. The PC is about 4 years old and has Windows XP.
When i plug into an old USB 1 port the PC recongises the ipod, but says the port cannot support it (assume as it is too slow)
I have tried the following things
1. remove all ipod/itunes software and restore-using both the software downloads from apple site as well as the software which came with ipod
2. resetting it
3. putting it in disco format when plugged into PC.
Plse can someone tell me what I shoudl try next? I have looked through all the discussion threads and apple site and cannto see anything that seeems to fit this problem. I am assuming it is related to the USB.....but could be very wrong!
thanks
Chantal

Hi,
I have EXACTLY the same problem, my computer is even the same age as yours! I re-installed etc etc, I downloaded XP service pack 2, I have a 4GB ipod mini, I reset it and reset it again, I phoned Apple support, not a lot of help considering they told me to doexactly what I had been doing already, told me to try on another computer and like you I don't have any other to try on, I tried other devices in the USB 2 port (also a PCI card like yours) and they work fine, and the ipod charges. I went back to the Apple store to swap it for another one and the guy there said that it sounds as though my computer is only recognising the ipod as a external hard drive instead of a music player. When I plug it in I get a little bubble saying found new hardware mass storage device, and then anopther bubble says there was a problem installing hardware and the device may not work corretly (which clearly it doesn't!). So he told me to find smeone who is really good with windows (where....?) to sort out my computer so that it recognises it as an ipod and not an external hard drive, aparently there is a way to do this. I do have someone coming to check it oput tonight, if they can solve the problem then I will let you know how they do it!
Sorry can't be any more help but I suppose it's good to know there's someone else in the same situation!!!!

Will rebooting my iPod affect my gaming progress?
