I am from Germany so please excuse my bad English....My question regards the step on which I first need to put the ipod into the DFU mode pushing the select and menu button for about 15 seconds....when I do this my windows 7 ultimate does not show the ipod again respectively not automatic driver installation happens..... [21:20:18] doesn't show? where? it should only appear in device manager [21:20:23] not in Computer [21:20:39] it will appear as disk after you run the .exe [21:20:50] the bootstrapper? [21:21:18] this one? bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe [21:23:38] thank you allready for your help....what a lack of gratefullness towards you...sorry for that.... [21:24:01] did it work? [21:24:55] device manager means taskmanager? ....sorry....I need to be clear in order to try it again...:-) [21:26:31] no [21:26:41] start menu -> devmgmt.msc [21:27:48] and there is also task running called ipodservice....,is this right? I mean going through the installation guide step by step feels a bit confusing to me........The display of your iPod should now stay black, and a new USB device called "Apple Recovery (DFU) USB Driver" should connect to your PC. Wait for the driver installation to complete Run bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe this is not really the right succesion isn' [21:29:13] Do you really mean I should ignore the fact that no automatic driver installation happens and just run bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe ??? [21:31:43] sorry...what is this devmgmt.msc ? how to execute this? via the cmd? sorry for my lack of understanding and thank you again for your patience.... [21:33:52] *** Quits: [7] (~quassel@rockbox/developer/TheSeven) (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) [21:36:29] you can type it in the search box of the start menu [21:38:24] okay device manager...i got that...the ipod should only appear there then? [21:38:51] if so I can go on executing bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe? [21:41:41] yes [21:41:56] you can try to run it even if you don't see the device [21:42:23] it will show a message if the driver is not installed [21:45:20] okay now the display stays black....but I have a question regarding another process called Ipodservice that is still running....as I allready asked....should it be running? [21:45:31] sorry...I too stupid :D [21:45:40] I'm [21:46:55] terminate all apple-related processed and services, then try again [21:50:15] I have allready run the bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe...windows says no that the driver could not be installed...and on the screen of the ipod is the apple logo but on the left is some blue frame...I don't see a window of bootstrap_ipodclassic_itunes.exe...it opened than dissappeared again....what to do now..? [21:50:57] open Computer and look for a new disk drive (64 MB) [21:51:19] Oh man thank you so much I am really grateful for your help....and I don't want to brick the ipod :-) [21:52:09] you can't brick it that easily [21:53:16] oh my heart feels so light again...thank you....:-) [21:53:44] it does not show in computer... [21:55:24] should I restore it by DFU and itunes or kill all apple-related services now? [21:56:29] it would be easier to reset the ipod with menu+select for 5-6 seconds [21:56:32] then start over [21:56:56] by the way...applemobiledeviceservice is running again...I mean itunes started also by itself when I connected the ipod.... [21:57:17] thanks mate [21:57:24] follow the instructions step by step [21:57:36] from the beginning [21:57:37] keeping the ipod connected? [21:57:55] well, reset it so it runs the apple software and disconnect it [21:58:17] then start here: http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Installation/iPodClassic/DFUiTunes [21:58:21] is it safer to only install the applemobiledeviceservice or itunes completely? [21:58:53] if you already have itunes, you don't need to install anything [22:00:03] I would be deinstalling it...because you suggested to kill all apple-related services you know what I mean? [22:00:14] Ipod reset worked....thanks :-) [22:00:40] you can uninstall itunes completely [22:00:46] and then install only the drivers [22:00:56] http://www.freemyipod.org/wiki/EmCORE_Installation/iPodClassic/InstalliTunesDrivers [22:01:03] this is an alternate way of installation [22:01:11] where itunes doesn't get in the way [22:01:17] because... it's not installed [22:01:18] :) [22:02:28] I am doing it...takes a while... [22:03:19] you are funny :-) [22:12:38] I restart my os...until later....
