Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

IPod touch 4th gen will not connect to anything after update. Please help.
Ok, so I haven't updated my 4th gen ipod touch since I bought it, which was well over a year ago. Just recently, apps have started to force me to update to the newest iOS and many updates require it too, so I finally decided to update and get it over with. Well, I synced everything from my ipod and then updated. Well, to my horror after I came back I found out that even though I had CLEARLY synced my apps. They were gone on BOTH my ipod and my computer.
Not to say I was really ticked off or anything, but I had almost 15 GB or so of just apps on my 32 GB itouch. I read somewhere that I can go back and reinstall all my apps but that would be a PAIN. Turns out there aren't many others ways to go about doing it so I was left with little choice. Well, once again, I ran into the problem that absolutely nothing would connect on my ipod touch.
So, I have two problems actually:
1. Is there anyway besides reinstalling apps for me to get back all the apps I had prior to updating my ipod? And in the future, how can I prevent itunes from deleting my apps when I clearly have them synced before updating?
2. Why won't my ipod touch connect to anything wifi related? When I open the app store it just simply loads. And it will continue loading forever; I had it "loading" for about an hour until I decided to come here. Same goes with iCloud, facetime, Safari - just anything that has to do with connecting to my wifi.
Things I've done: I've restarted my ipod once already, I've reset my router as well, and I've also tried to disconnect from my router then reconnect. None of them have worked so far. Any help would be appreciated.- If synced media like apps and music are not in the iTunes library on the computer one which you update they will not be on the iPod after the update since the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media..

I recently purchased my iPod touch with no issues. After updating to iOS 8.1.1 I found that my iPod would no longer appear in the latest version of iTunes and when I searched for Apple Mobile Device usb driver in the device manager, it was nowhere to be found. I've already uninstalled and re-installed ALL components of iTunes and read every single help article. I've tried everything. What went wrong?

- I would start with

Ipod touch 2nd gen will not connect to my wifi giving me incorrect password
Friday when i went to school when i came back and i turned wifi on it asked for my password and it told me incorrect password even though i am 100% sure it is correct. I went to my dads house over the weekend and used wifi there, and when i came back it would keep telling me that i had the incorrect password. My brother also has a 2nd gen itouch with ios 4.1 and same as me and his will connect just fine. I have tried several things and none seem to work. I have not tried updating my ipod or restoring it for several reasons. Does anyone have a fix?
Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

IPod Touch 4th Gen will not connect to Macbook Air
Okay, so I've been trying to connect my iPod to my Macbook Air for a few days now to get some very important videos to transfer into iPhoto so I can get them sent to people that have been requesting them of me by their deadlines. I've also wanted to do some general charging of my device.
Here's the problem; when I connect the USB cord (Original one that I received with my iPod from Apple) to the only USB port the Macbook Air has, it refuses to connect, charge and/or synch with my computer. Up until about three days ago, it would connect and charge just fine with the computer, but now it is not.
When I plug the usb into my wall charger however, it recognizes and charges the device just fine.
I've had both my Air and iPod inspected recently at the Genius Bar, and there is NOTHING wrong with either device, so that is NOT the cause of the issue.
I want to know how to fix this, and whether or not buying a new cord would help, as I need the files on it to get to my computer ASAP. (Emailing the videos from the iPod is NOT an option as they're longer than one minute, and it will only let me email one minute clips.)I brought all three yeah.
And the guy that assisted me hooked it to their computers and it worked fine, and then he hooked it to mine and wiggled it around for a couple seconds and it worked for him but now I can't get it to do anything at all.
And as I said he checked the hardware and everything of both my Air and the iPod and said there was nothing wrong with it.
I'll try buying a new cord when I get paid and see if that fixes anything. -
Ipod touch 4th gen will not connect to my computer or itunes
Everytime I plug it in, the laptop says that the ipod is a camera and does not automatically open itunes. Then the message of "MobileDeviceService has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." shows up.
When I click to see the data of the error report it says this:
szAppName: AppleMobileDeviceService.exe
szAppVer: 17.88.0.7
szModName: kernel32.dll
szModVer: 5.1.2600.5781
offset: 00012afb
I have Windows XP and have tried all of the troubleshooting tips, like reinstalling itunes and stopping and restarting mobile device services. Nothing works. I can plug it into my sister's laptop, which has Windows 7 and it works fine.
Can someone help me please?Try here:

I have an ipod touch and it will not connect to my wifi. It has in the past but now it will not even give me the option to connect?
Did you just update to BUGGY OS 4.x???
All the updates starting with OS 4.x have completely screwed up most iPod Touch', especially older models like Gen 2 and 3.
Inability to connect to any WiFi.
Fluctuating WiFi signal no matter how close you are to the AP.
Drastically shortened battery life, even when in sleep mode.
And Apple hasn't done a **** thing since irritated owners have complained about it since the middle of 2011!!
(I am one of many thousands affected!) Look at older threads by searches of "Fluctuating WiFi", Terrible Battery Life, for the Touch and iPhone.
This is why I bought an Android tablet instead of an iFad this Xmas. Non-existant Apple support!

I am running Windows XP.
I have tried everything I've seen suggested on various support communities, with no success.
I have gotten used to having to find a windows workaround everytime Apple updates iTunes, and this time it is especially frustrating.
I don't have any solutions, and I am responding to all of these types of messages in hopes of finding something that will work for me.
One person was able to work through it by deleting all of the previous iTunes backup files. I'm trying that now. 4 hours into it, and it does not seem to be working...... -

My ipod touch 4th gen will not turn on, i have held the power and home buttons, i have plugged my ipod into itunes and tried again, yet nothing happens, what should i do?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
