    Does it say that it works with iOS devices (iPhone, iPod touch or iPhone)? iOS devices have a different format/file system than other iPods.

  • My ipod is recognised in my computer but not in the itunes source list

    Please Help.
    I got my ipod (20gb) as a Christmas present last year. It is now 11 months old. I havent had many problems with it but recently one has arisen.
    I connected my ipod to my windows computer. It displayed 'Do not disconnect'. After waiting for about 2 minutes i realised that itunes had not recognised my ipod. I disconnected it and connected it again. The same thing happened. I checked 'my computer' and saw that the ipod had been recognised, i asume (hopefully correctly) that my ipod is not faulty.
    I visited the apple website and went on their support page where i tryed everything that it advised at leat 3 times. I am well and truly stuck.
    I am only 14 and was a bit shocked at the £35 i would have to pay to ask apple for help. I therefore hoped that some nice people on the discussion forum might help.
    I have helped people before as i am usually quite efficient when it comes to using a computer.
    Please help, It would be much appreciated
    Im posting this on a Friday night so have a nice weekend.

    Try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the computer.
    Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
    This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.
    Also try this (and the other suggestions below) from any other USB port you may have on the PC. Sometimes switching USB ports can make all the difference.
    If that doesn't work, Put Your iPod into Disk Mode then plug it in and you should be able to Restore the iPod

  • IPod shuffle appears in My Computer but not in iTunes after upgrade to 8.1

    I recently upgraded to iTunes v.8.1. Now my generation 1 Shuffle shows up in 'My Computer' but not in the iTunes 'devices'? I followed the iTunes 'help' advice - even reloading iTunes but to no avail. Anyone help please?

    hi haptic!
    I had it all working fine until I formatted my pc. Now windows recognizes it but not iTunes or the updater, and I don't get any error message.
    just checking. have you investigated these possibilities yet?

    my phone is charging from my computer but not showing up in itunes?
    can some one help please, i have followed all of apples advice!!

    "i have followed all of apples advice!!"
    No idea what this means, unless you say what you have tried. When you say that you have tried "all", it really does not encourage anyone to make suggestions.  If you have tried it all, then, by definition, there is nothing left to try.
    Have you read this?

  • HT1539 Digital copy transferred successfully to my computer, but not showing up in purchased list on other devices.

    Digital copy transferred successfully to my computer, but not showing up in purchased list on other devices. This is the first time I've encountered this issue. Package insert says copy is iPad compatible. Is there anything I can do to fix this? (The movie was Kung Fu Panda)

    it's a known issue. Everyone is experiencing this issue. Give it time for Apple to rectify the issue.

  • HT201401 I changed my apple ID, it shows on my computer but not on my phone. How can I fix it?

    I changed my apple ID, it shows on my computer but not on my phone. My still has my old apple ID, how can I change it?

    Welcome to the Apple Community Amy.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • IPod Touch 1st Gen is showing up in Computer but not in iTunes

    I recently updated to iTunes 10.3 I didn't try to sync my iPod immediatly though so I didn't notice this problem until just now. I went into iTunes to sync my ipod and the ipod would show up in Computer or in iTunes, I uninstalled it and downgraded to iTunes 10.2, then my iPod would show up in Computer but still not in iTunes and in Computer it said it was and "Apple iPod" instead of "<My Name Here>'s iPod Touch". Just now I updated to iTunes 10.4 and it iis still showing up in Computer as "Apple iPod" but it isn't showing up in iTunes.
    I don't know if this will effect anything but I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Would someone please at least give me some advice like microwave my laptop or something?
