When I plug my ipod shuffle into the computer it does not work. The ipod works when i listen to music. i have tried it in many types of ports and it still does not work. what the f^[email protected] do i do
What I usually do when this happens is reflow the board and it works everytime. To do this you need a hot air machine.

Do you have the software from the CD installed on the computer? Have you tried shutting it off while connected for a few seconds and turning it on again? Have you tried restoring it and updating the software on it? After you install the update on the PC, Connect iPod shuffle to your computer and open iTunes. The iPod Updater application opens. If you?re using a Windows PC and the iPod Updater application doesn?t open automatically, you can find the updater by choosing Start > All Programs > iPod. more suggestions: Go to Control panel>Performance and maintenance> System> Hardware> Device manager> Universal Serial Bus Controller, click on the + sign to see the list of installed devices. If your player is connected, it should be listed there with a yellow flag (the yellow flag indicates that although the connection is there, it is not working properly). Right click on it>Properties>Troubleshoot. See if the troubleshooter can help. If not, click on Action on the top bar and then Uninstall. Leave your shuffle on and connected and reboot. XP should now recognize and install it. Another possible solution. Click on Start, click on Run and type the following in the opening textbox: cmd and press the Enter key A window will open (black and white) and will display the following: C:\Documents and Settings\Your Name\ Type the following at the end of the above line after the \ Net start stisvc And press the Enter key You will get a message that service is already started (if so this does not solve the problem) or that it is starting (if so this may solve the problem). Then try connecting your camera after you close this window. To close this window, type EXIT at the end of the displayed line and press the Enter key. Yet another possible solution: Open Tweak UI if you have it. Get it if you don't. In Tweak UI, open the My Computer tab/line and click on Drives. A list of all possible drive names will appear with the ones you want to show in My Computer checked. If your removable storage/generic volume/camera drive as shown in Device Manager (mine was F:) is not checked, check it. The drive will appear in My Computer. If your drive is already checked, it's something else. Tweak UI can be downloaded from the following site: Windows XP PowerToys / free download http://tinyurl.com/36n Good luck!
