Windows will not restart properly when iPod is Connected!

Please help...I am running Windows XP and i have a 5th Gen iPod. My computer will not restart when I have my iPod connected to my computer, it starts then after a few seconds it just goes to a blank screen. Yet if I unplug my iPod my compter will restart correctly. What is the problem?

Reboot the computer. On the very first screen you see, probably a manufacturers name or something similar, it should tell you a button to hit to enter your BIOS or setup. It is generally the delete key, F10, or ESC although it is possible it is something different so look for a section that tells you what button.
Hit that button a couple of times until you enter the setup area. Once there look for an option somewhere of changing the boot order. It will give you options of which devices to boot from first. Such as harddrive, cdrom, floppy, usb, etc. If it is set to boot the usb before the harddisk, just change the order around so that usb is after the harddisk.

That does happen. It depends on how hard the server is being hit, as well as the connection speed of your system. If you are on a windows system, you will want to disable any antivirus or firewall software during the download.

ITunes does not start automatically when iPod is connected

iTunes used to start automatically when I connected iTunes. It no longer does. Can I fix that?
Dave

Connect your iPod and open iTunes. Towards the bottom of the iPod screen, there are four check boxes. The top one says "Open iTunes when iPod is connected." Check that box and click apply. If it is checked, uncheck it and click apply, eject and reconnect your iPod, then recheck it and click apply.

ITunes 11 will not load properly when Windows 7 starts

Hi Everyone,
I'm running Windows 7 64bit, iTunes 11. I successfully ran iTunes 10 on this PC previously.
iTunes is configured to launch when Windows boots. What happens is that it does start, and then the 'Checking iTunes Library' message appears for a few seconds. iTunes appears on the Task Bar during this period. The 'Checking.." message disappears, and then so does the icon in the Task Bar.
When I check Task Manager iTunes appears on the Processes tab in the Image Name list as: iTunes.exe *32, so it is loading, but there is no GUI interface available.
If I kill the task manually, and then start iTunes from the shortcut everything works fine.
Here is what I have tried to do to resolve this:
1) run msconfig and disabled Apple Push
2) removed and reinstalled Apple Quicktime (after downloading latest version)
3) unchecking all other start processes in msconfig to see if iTunes would load (it did not)
I have not found other suggestions so I figured I should post this and see if anyone else has some advice on how to get iTunes to load properly when I boot my computer.
Here are some details on the computer:
MB - Asus PZ77-VPro
CPU - i7-3770K @ 3.5GHz
RAM - 32 GB
VC - nVidia GForce GTX-670
C: HD - 120 GB solid state drive (this is where itunes is intalled)
E: HD - 2GB Raid 0 (this is where the itunes database has been installed)
I would appreciate your help after a morning of unsuccessful troubleshooting.
Thanks,
James

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

Have 2 ipod but windows will not accept my new ipod shuffle!

I aleady have a ipod mini set up on my computer which is fine,i have also now got a ipod suffle wich windows xp is saying that it has found a new divice but when i go to install it it says that it is not windows logo tested and that i sould stop the intallation. i have no idea what to do please could someone help me :)?

It may be the encryption method your router is using. I know that an iPod will not connect to a router that is using simple WEP encryption. Make sure you are using some form of WPA.

975X Platinum PowerUp - Windows will not Restart - only shutdown

I've had a MSI 975x Platinum Powerup for several weeks now and have a really annoying problem.
When booted and in Windows the system is pretty stable. I've even had some success at overclocking (up to 333 with an E6400). However, even when not overclocked it I select Windows Restart the machine will shutdown but will not POST on the restart. The machine just sits there with no video signal.
however if I do Windows Shutdown and the physically power the machine back on, everything seems okay.
This maybe isnt a big deal, but is very irritating. I've seen some passing reference to other members of the forums that have a similar sounding problem, but there are no details.
Could anyone tell me if this is a known issue, and whether there is a solution or not.
Is it the case that only some people have this problem or do all 975x users have it?
I've tried MSI support who just responded with a generic 'have you checked x,y,z' message.
have detailed some of the other components of my machine below - let me know if you need anything more
Thanks in advance,
James.
BIOS: 7.3 (7.1 and 7.2 had the same problem also)
VGA Type:MSI GeForce 7900 GTO SILENT 512MB
CPU Type:E6400
Memory Type:GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Ultra Low Latency DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
Power Supply Type:650W XCLIO X14 PSU
Operating System:Windows XP professional

Hi, The only thing I need to change in the bios is to turn off 'spread spectrum' and run the memory @2.2v. I have found turning off speedstep and C1E made no difference for me. At 375 if you run the memory with the 1:1 divider it will be running @750 so you can manually select 4,4,4,12 for the memory timings. This will not help the restart problem though.
Having said that, any bios after 7.2 will alter your manual memory settings and if you enter the above ( GeILs recommended settings) it will change them to 4,5,6,12.......... Another bios quirk I'm afraid!
To get around this you can go back to bios 7.1 which leaves these settings alone. What I have found works well is to leave the divider option on 'AUTO' . This applies the 1:1.25 ratio, and leaves memory timings on 4,4,4,12 with the ram running @875 when on 350 FSB. I run this setting @ 375, but I put the memory timings on 'SPD' as the ram is then running @938. You can run up to 2.3v through this ram according to OCUK where I bought the memory which may help you get up to these speeds or tighten the timings a bit.
380 is about the fastsest mine will boot at and adding more vcore (up to 1.4v) made no difference to this. I have tried upping the pcie voltage (which is the chipset voltage on this board) to 1.6v, but this didn't help either! Some people seem to get over 400FSB easily and others seem to have hit the same wall as me. People who can attain the high FSB speeds don't seem to suffer from the restart problems either! WEIRD!!
Let us know how how you get on.

Windows will not restart correctly

I'm currently tri-booting osx, windows 7, and ubuntu 10.04 on a mac mini. I am using refit for the boot screen. Everything has installed correctly and appears to be working, however if I am in windows and click restart, it does not go back to the refit screen to reprompt for os choice. This does not happen for the ubuntu partition nor the osx one. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

New window will not open even when "open new window in tab" is checked

I cannot open a new window even when i have the option "Open new window in tab" checked.
Firefox will NOT open a new window under any circumstances.
Also, when I quit Firefox, the system thinks that multiple instances of FF is running but they are invisible to me.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

Firefox will not close properly when I close a window. Is this a know issue?

I go to http://www.1035thearrow.com/ and click lisen live on top. it opens another window if I try to close that window Firefox crashes. If this is the last window I close it will partly close (in windows task manager it wont show up in applications) and it won't let me start a new session of Firefox until I stop the firefox.exe process in the task manager. When I restart Firefox it will bring that window back up with the same problem. Is this a known issue and if not how do I report it.

Report window does not close properly when using openDocument

XI R2 InfoView
Windows 2003 server
IIS
IE7
We have been experimenting with the use of openDocument and have managed to achieve what we wanted but have one small problem. When the document is retrieved it is opened in a new browser window. When Close is selected from the drop-down Document menu the document is closed but the window shrinks to approx 8.5cm x 6 cm and remains open.
A similar thing happens when we use the Preview button to view a document in the CMC, except in that case the document does not close and closing the browser window leaves a button on the Windows taskbar. There doesn't appear to be a related window as it cannot be restored but you have to right click and select Close to get rid of it.
Any ideas what is causing these problems and how we can get round them?

Anne,
There are some parameters in opendocument (for ex. sWindow) that can help control certain things, have you tried employing anything like that? What I find frustrating is the behavior of opendocument based on whether you're running Infoview or WebI -- each product, using the same exact opendocument syntax yields different results. Based on the sample code below, what I'm seeing with Infoview is the same browser instance is used for calling the child report, however, in WebI, a new browser instance is started and the child report is rendered in Infoview. In my case, when running within WebI and getting a new browser instance in Infoview, and then using the "Document", "close" workflow, the second instance is exiting and I'm back to the previous browser. Staying within Infoview entirely through the process, when closing the child report I get brought back to the folder list page. Who's to know?

Windows will not restart after install of itunes & quicktime, what to do?

I installed itunes and quicktime from the disc provided. After install the installer asked to restart the computer and I clicked yes. It has not booted since. Windows 2000 Pro locks up about 75% through process. I did hear the speakers activate then nothing. I have attempted a hard boot and restart in safe mode without success. My emergency disk did not work. Where should I go next?

Notebook frequently is found turned off and will not restart even when power button is held in

I have a dv7-3060us notebook running Windows 7, Some mornings (every few days or weeks), I find it, powered off and unresponsive. Pressing in and holding the power button for 5-10 seconds has no effect. I have to unplug it and remove the battery to get it to restart. This has happened numerous times. I have tried it running with the battery removed and it even fails then.
Can a software problem cause this? I thought that holding in the power button causes a hardware interrupt and the BIOS takes over.
Is there a known hardware problem which can cause this?
Thanks,
Adam
This question was solved.

Hey Adam,
First off, Happy Friday! I would go ahead a try a hard reset to resolve this issue. You can find the instructions on how to do this on this page: Use Hard Reset to Resolve Hardware and Software Issues
If this does not resolve the issue post back with any new details and we can go from there.
Thanks,

Date selection will not print properly when using Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control 6.0 in Excel 2010

I have created a field input worksheet in which the user identifies start and end dates for training sessions, using the Date and Time Picker Active X Control. It works fine on-screen, but when the worksheets are printed, the dates that were selected
using the date picker calendar print out in an unreadable, huge font. The large font also appears in the print preview mode. I've tried modifying various properties in design mode, but nothing that I have tried will correct the problem.
Any ideas?

The DTPicker seems to have some bugs in it when used on a worksheet. I have overcome the above by setting the size properties to the same size as a cell and the Linked cell property to the
cell under the DTPicker. (Even setting the Linked cell had problems with an error message referring to the Check box property to be set to true so I just set it to true and inserted the linked cell and set the checkbox property back to
false.)
Then the VBA code below that Hides the DTPicker after a date is selected and unhides the DTPicker when the linked cell with the date is selected. The code is for 2 DTPickers so you will need to edit to suit your requirements.
Caveat: If the DTPicker is visible then you can't hide it by selecting the same date again. If this occurs then it is a multi step operation. First select another date and the DTPicker will hide, then click on another cell then back on the cell with
the date to unhide the DTPicker and then select the correct date.
Hope it helps and feel free to get back to me with any questions etc.
Private Sub DTPicker1_Change()
    Me.DTPicker1.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub DTPicker2_Change()
    Me.DTPicker2.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
    Select Case Target.Address
        Case "$E$5"     'This is the linked cell for DTPicker1
            Me.DTPicker1.Visible = True
        Case "$E$13"    'This is the linked cell for DTPicker2
            Me.DTPicker2.Visible = True
    End Select
End Sub

ITunes not coming up when iPod is connected to laptop

When I plug my iPod Nano into the laptop where my iTunes music library is stored, the iTunes program doesn't begin automatically and the laptop gives me a prompt indicating that it is recognizing the iPod as an E drive. Meanwhile, the iPod shows "Do Not Disconnect." The cable is fine, as it works on my desktop, and I get the same response on the laptop regardless of what USB port I used. I tried switching my iPod so that it was tied to the iTunes library on the desktop, but this only resulted in all the pre-loaded garbage on the desktop replacing all of the songs I liked on the iPod. The iTunes software on the laptop will come up when I click on the icon, and the library with the songs I like is still intact there. So how do I get the laptop to recognize the iPod properly, or in the alternative, copy the iTunes library from the laptop to the desktop? I'm hesitant to try reloading the iTunes software on the laptop for fear of wiping out the iTunes library.

I have the same-ish problem, my laptop is not showing my iPod even though the computer says it's there and it appears connected in diagnostics.
You can try the 7 R's suggested by Apple but they haven't worked for me. If you reinstall iTunes you won't erase all your music because it's stored in the library, not in iTunes itself - trust me I've uninstalled and reinstalled it about 17 times over the past day or two and all my music is still there.
If you find a solution PLEASE let me know!

HDD will not spin up when IDE is connected

I am setting up a new KT6V MotherBoard, it has 512MB 266DDR, and Athlon XP 2000+ and a HD that was pulled from another comptuer with XP Pro loaded on it. The Power Supply is a 300 watt power supply.
The issue is this: Pressing the power button causes all of the Fans to come on the D bracket has all four lights light up and nothing else happens. Now if I keep the same configuration and unplug the IDE cable from the HD but keep the power cord from the power supply plugged in the HD will spin up with out an issue at all.
Here is what I have tried with other components that I know work:
Different RAM, a different processor (same specs), 2 different cables and 3 different Hard drives all ranging from 8 GB up to 30 GB. Every HD behaves the same. Oh yeah, I have two to the same MotherBoards and the same issue occurs on both motherboards. I am not sure what is causing this.
I realize that to get some replies I will need to add some specs for some. If you need any other specs let me know and I will look them up.
