I have an Ipod Touch 4G, Although I have tried two connection leads to the computer, it comes up with the message ' Itunes could not connect to "Dads Ipod" because an invalid response was received from the device'.   I can access the contents of the device via the connection leads using 'My Computer' but not through Itunes as the message always appears!!  Using WinVista Homebasic. Is this a known fault with the Ipod4 and VISTA? It works okay on a laptop, however, I would like an expert to take me through the steps to sort out my home desktop computer? Please help?  Thanks in advance

  • Itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device

    Hello
    I just installed the maximus v extreme motherboard with a ocz vertex 4 ssd with windows 7 x64. Installation was fine and installing drivers went without a hitch. Re-installing the software i use went fine as well.
    However, when i went to use iTunes( v10.7) to sync my ipad i got an error message saying:
    "Itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device"
    I then connected my ipod nano to see if it will cause the same error, but it worked fine. So i tried an iphone and the same error I got for my ipad came up.
    I tried reinstalling the usb drivers, but the same error came up. I also updated BIOS to the latest version, but the error still came up. I also reinstalled itunes numerous times and still got the error. I reinstalled and updated all drivers as well. Again this did not fix the issue. I also tried to run itunes in vista compatability and xp compatability mode. Again this did not fix the issue.
    I have also followed all the steps apple recommends to do on their website with regards to this issue, again it did not fix the issue.
    It is a real pain as everything else works like a dream! Is there anything i can do to get itunes to work properly on my pc?
    Thank you for your help!
    System specs:
    asus rampage v extreme motherboard
    OCZ vertex 4 SSD
    8 Gb DDR3 RAM (1600 mHz)
    windows7 x64
    Intel i7 3.5Ghz 1155
    nvidia GTX295  (x2 running in Sli)

    I fixed this problem.  Believe the problem is iOS 7 incompatibility with older iTunes Versions on older MacOS systems or platforms.
    My iPad 2 would no longer sync with my old  PowerPC Mac mini running MacOS. My iPhone 3GS synced fine.  IPad2 updated to iOS 7 which doesn't run on my iPhone 3GS. Error message for iPad sync problem was "invalid response received from iPad" out of iTunes.  I then applied update iOS 7.1.2 to iPad and error message changed to indicate this version of iTunes not supported, use 11.1.
    iPad 2 used to sync prior to iOS 7 installation. 
    Research on Apple web site shows iOS 7 on iPhones and iPads does not support older MacOS and iTunes versions.
    Upgraded with new Mac mini and iTunes 11.1 and MacOS 10.9.2. (put this off as long as I could.  )
    all good now.

  • Error message "itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device".

    Hi, I am having problems with itunes and my ipad........
    I can use my ipad on my laptop but it will not connect to my main PC, I get the error message:
    "itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device"
    I have done all the Apple support ideas including re-installing itunes twice but no joy.
    It used to work a week or so ago and no, I can't think of anything I have done which would have stopped it.
    I have run msconfig and disabled everything but still no connection.
    Anyone got any ideas?????

  • HT4528 I can't seem to sync my iPhone with iTunes.  I keep getting this message:  iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device.  What can I do?

    I can't seem to sync my iPhone to my computer; I keep getting this message:  "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because an error occurred while reading from this device."  I get the same message with my iPad, even though they all share the same account.  What can I do?

    This could be caused by a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to the Mac using the USB cable it came with. Also, try disconnecting all other USB devices.
    If you haven't already try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here:http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

    Connect iPad to MAC computer and get this message: iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device timed out.  What is the likely problem???

    Eject the iPad, quit iTunes, restart the Mac and reset the iPad and try again. Use another USB port on the Mac if you have a free one to use.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up.

    If you are using Windows 7, go to:
    Control Panel>Programs>Programs and Features
    Look for a program called 'Apple Mobile Device Support'
    Right-click on it
    Click 'repair'
    Wait until the repair operation is complete, and voila, your problem should be solved, itunes will recognise your iphone/ipod once more. This worked for me.

  • ITunes error message / "iTunes could not connect to the music store...

    The past week, I have been having problems connecting to the iTunes music store. I purchased my ipod in 10/05 and have had no problems until recently. I keep receiving the following error message:
    "iTunes could not connect to the music store. Network connection was refused. Make sure your network settings are correct & network connection is active, then try again."
    I went onto the website, and checked various things. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and the software, checked to see if I have any firewalls (none), checked to see if I have Windows XP service pack 2 (I have 1), and contacted my ISP (AOL). Help! I have AOL 8.0 dial up, and have had service with them for a couple of years now, so that is not an issue. Per AOL, I tried uninstalling AOL adapter and restarting my computer, and also deleting cookies and deleting files/all offline content, defaulted my security settings (they were the same), and reset web settings. I have restarted my computer, but am still having the same issues. I already contacted iTunes about this issue, and they sent me the same email twice, with the same instructions as their website, which I indicated I already tried numerous times. I have also checked my connections, and everything is fune. I try to access iTunes after logging into AOL.
    Thank you in advance to everybody that responds.
    Emily

    Thanks for the input. Unfortunately, I keep trying to do that, and have not been able to download for about a week. After contact customer support, I received the general "technical support" email, which is the same information found on the website. After replying to the email, which stated that I tried already tried the methods listed, I received the same email again. After replying to that email which included the previous threads, I received an email stating that the deparment I replied to does not handle technical issues. So, tonight, I re-emailed them with all of the threads and asked for an explanation of why I received technical emails if they do not respond to technical emails. It will be interesting to see how they respond, although it will probably be some general email. I sometimes respond to member service emails at my place of employment, so I know the procedure. The bottom line is that I should receive answers to my questions, even if the answer is something along these lines:
    "I am researching your problem, and will contact you within the next xx hours/business days with a resolution. We value you as a customer, and strive to maintain excellent customer support and satisfaction. Thank you for your patience."
    Or, a similar response. I know there is a general response library. And, I also know that if some body is unable to answer a question, as customer support, they should try utilize their resources. Basically, be a problem solver.

  • Error message: itunes could not connect to the itunes store

    Hi All,
    I'm a rookie to the whol Apple ipod nano, etc, etc. I bought the generation 3 nano yesterday. I successfully downloaded a CD to the nano, but when i tried to download a tv show and open itunes i get the follow error message:
    "itunes could not connect to the itunes store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
    The funny thing is, is that i'm not even on a network. I'm just doing this from home and not connected to a network. internet connection works, I ran the diagnostic and nothing weird came up? Any suggestion for a newbee.

    Hi, I am having the same problem and I get the message: "iTUNES could not connect to the iTUNES store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I just downloaded 2 songs no problem, after uploading the latest version on iTUNES online. I closed the program and tried again, same message. My cable internet connection works just fine, so I am assuming the problem is on their end. I will check in with you guys to see if someone figured it out.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    For no apparent reason my phone stopped working...so I did a reset and got the message 'Restore Needed'. I connected to iTunes and got this message: 'iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on your iPhone before it can be used with iTunes'.
    The problem is, I can't enter my passcode because I'm not given that option on the iPhone. All I seem to be able to do is make an emergency call.
    It's been working fine otherwise. Any suggestions?
    This is the SECOND replacement iPhone I've had this week and I'm getting a bit fed up.
    Thanks in advance for any help,

    Are you referring to the 4 digit passcode needed to enter the phone and use it's features?
    If so reboot your iPhone and enter the passcode to get it operational.  Launch Image Capture on the Mac and connect the iPhone.  Now you should be able to download the video files to wherever you want on your hard drive.
