iPod Touch 2nd Generation restore error (13)

Thanks for the reply but I have been on every support page that has any reference to this problem,and have tried them all including this one you referred me to. I have checked my computer for malfunctions,and it is fine,also my iPod Touch, which was purchased after my daughters,and came with this newer version already installed,works fine when plugged into itunes. If you or anyone else has anymore ideas,I would greatly appreciate them,cause I really would like to avoid sending it off for repair if possible. Thanks guys!

I feel your pain, this is so frustrating. I tried some of the listed websites to download the older version of itunes to see if this would help,but it won't go through because the newer version is now in effect,and the iPod worked fine with the older version. But keep your fingers crossed, I emailed someone who had a post on here, he is suppose to be sending me a url soon that may fix this problem. When he does I will let you know if it works or not, and if it does I'll give you the url to fix your's. In the mean time if you,or anyone else has a fix,we would appreciate the help,cause Apple phone support was no support at all! Hang in there I'm trying. But you might try to connect to someone elses computer, this worked for my son,his will now connect to my computer. Didn't work for me though.

I am stuck in recovery mode,and now the computer doesn't even recognize it,even though everything is up to date and working fine. And it reads my iPod Touch 2nd Generation 32gb. fine. Basically right now I'm stuck,and wondering if I'm gonna have to go ahead and send it off for service,but I haven't yet,not only am I mad,I'm stubborn too,so keep sending suggestions,I'll try them all. Thanks anyway!

Well I got the computer to recognize the iPod,but still I get the error 13 message. I did the shift restore, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. So if you would be so kind as to explain to this 47 year old madmom, who never did anything on a computer until 2 years ago, and I'm still learning, and as far as iPods go, this is compleatly new to me. And if there is a particular place I can go to on the internet, where is it, cause I'm Googled out! THANKS GUYS

Thanks for checking back. I'll try that right now. Hope it works, I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again for all your help. Sincerely!!!

Well, I'm still getting the error 13 message. When I downloaded the firmware from the website and hooked up the iPod,it acted as if it might work,it actually showed in the download that it was loading, and it said itunes is updating iPod. I was so excited, then it went to update and restore afterwards, and that dreaded error 13 appeared again. I'm at a loss, was thier something I should've done that maybe I missed? I don't know. Any suggestions are welcomed, and Thanks again, it should have worked,you were a help.
