IPod Touch not appearing in devices windows 7 x64
i have itunes on my hp notebook running on windows 7 x64. recently, my notebook crashed and was returned to me with a new drive c: and default factory settings (i.e brand new). i installed itunes and then... my itouch wasn't able to sync! it is not even appearing as a portable camera device (before my notebook crashed, it did). i went to check other forums and tried out the various apple support article (e.g. uninstall (4x already!), update drivers, restore itouch etc.etc.etc.)
anyway, when i run services.msc and check apple mobile device, the service is not started. when i start it, it says "The apple mobile device service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically when they are not in use by other services or programs)". I reckon this is what's stopping my itouch from being recognised and syncing to itunes. Talked to a itunes champion and he couldnt help.
Would deeply appreciate it if someone can help me. Been spending christmas and new year's cracking my brains over this =/Try taking a photo with your iPod and see if it then appears as a camera device.
(I am really new at this but I had mine appear as a camera because of 1 picture I took. When I deleted it, it does not appear now but I can still get into itunes.) -
Ipod touch not being recognized by itunes (but is registering as an external drive by the computer itself) have updated and reinstalled itunes, stopped/started apple mobile device and removed any mobile programs associated with my non apple cellphone. This seems to have started happening after the last Itunes update I did as I was able to put music on my ipod touch a month or so ago. Is there some way to go back to an older version of itunes? I really have no idea what else to do since I followed every step on the trouble shooting page for windows 8.
I had this problem too and my roommate solved it!
Go to 'Settings'
'Music'
Scroll to the bottom and enter your password to log onto your home sharing
Then connect to iTunes and sync! -
Ipod Touch not being recognised/unknown device
Ipod Touch not being recognised - help!?
It says it's a code 43 - Unknown device/device not recognised. Doesn't sound good.
Tried all of the things the itunes website suggested such as of course turning it off and on again, restarting services, reinstalling itunes. I know from experience that when you take it in to the shop they want to charge you almost as much as you bought it for to fix a minor problem. ThanksHi,
Reinstalling iTunes *will not* erase your music library.
As a matter of course I do, and in fact Apple recommend that you back up your music library, there is an option to do this under "File" in iTunes. It is really quite sensible to have your purchased and other music files saved elsewhere as well as on your main hard drive, it can save a lot of time and hassle.
Good luck,
Dud.

My ipod touch shows up under devices, and it always used to sync right but all of a sudden one day it started saying "You're ipod could not be synced because the sync session failed to start" and now it's not syncing anymore. How do I fix this?
See if this previous discussion helps.
Sync Session Failed to Start iTouch iOS5: Apple Support Communities -
I have tried reinstalling ITunes and resetting my IPod Touch. The computer recognizes the IPod Touch as a connected device, but ITunes doesn't. However, ITunes will recognize other devices that I plug in with the same usb cord. ITunes diagonistics only says that no device is plugged in whenever the IPod Touch is plugged in. What can cause this combination of problems, and how could I get around it?
If you have iTunes 11 on the computer and are using the same cable that works with the iPhone then:
- 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.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Try on another computer
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware preoblem

IPod Touch not recognized by Windows Explorer.
My iPod Touch is shown in iTunes' list of devices but is not recognized by Windows Explorer. Another possibly consequential symptom is that iTunes will not start when the device is connected to the computer. Any help appreciated.
Windows 7 Pro, IE9, have verified latest version of iTunes.If your iPod is recognized by iTunes (and by your photo app as a camera), then that's how it should be. To startup iTunes when the iPod is connected, check the appropriate option on the iPod's Summary page in iTunes.

When attempting to connect my IPOD touch to Itunes I get the message: IPOD cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started. Also, the IPOD is not shown as a device.

How do I sync "On My iPod touch" notes with and IMAP account?
I wrote a number of notes in the Notes app before I configured it to sync with an IMAP account. I have added an IMAP acct. to the device and configured that acct. to sync notes. Notes now has an accounts section, and that section lists "On My iPod touch" and the IMAP acct. How do I get the "On My iPod touch" notes sync'd with my IMAP?
Have you tried restoring the ipod?

IPod Touch not recognised on Windows 8 and will not appear as connected in iTunes.
Usually when I plug my iPod Touch (4th Gen) into my laptop (Windows 8) it appears automatically on iTunes for me to sync. However, when I tried to do this today, iTunes did not recognise that a device was connected and this was confirmed after I did a diagnostic test. Windows recognises that an iPod has been plugged in, however where it usually says "Alicia's iPod Touch", it just appears as "Apple iPod" and when I click on it, I cannot access any photos/videos that I have on my iPod. Any help would be very much appreciated if anybody know how I can fix this. Thank you.
Hello Ali_95
Check out the article below for troubleshooting issues with your iPod touch not showing up in iTunes. It may be an issue with security software or the Apple Mobile Device driver.

IPod Touch not Synchronising/New Software Uploads-A/V Software Conflict
Hi,
I've been following the threads relating to the iPod Touch not being recognised (after having dealt with Windows thinking it was a Camera!!). One issue brough to my attention by the Apple Support Team when downloading any new software is a potential conflict with Anti Virus software and firewalls.
I had previously gone through the loop of uninstalling/reinstalling Quicktime, iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service etc etc.
In my case, when I connected the iPod, iTunes was coming up with a message saying "iPod detected in recovery mode", which then required me to do an updated software download. When running this, it appeared to complete the download, but the iPod remained with the "connection" screen (USB connector and iTunes symbol), as indeed it did again tonight.
I spoke with the Apple Support Team again tonight, and was advised to try disabling my anti virus software and firewall as he suggested that given the long time it takes to download the iPod software update, the AV software may be causing the problem.
This I did, and after having been advised last night to set up a new account, switched to this account, started iTunes, the Touch then went into software upload "mode" and eventually completed and appeared in the devices!!
So that's my problem resolved, but hopefully the advice I received may be of assistance to others struggling with connectivity issues.
Good luck everyone.Thanks for the information, tony!
Apologies for the nosy question, but what security software do you use? (I know people can have issues with CA software in particular in this context, but it is always useful to know about other packages when trying to help with people in your situation.) -
While updating ipod touch we now have a blank screen. I have updated itunes but am unable to sync because the ipod does not show under devices. I have tried shuttng down and restarting but only have a blank screen or ap0ple logo. Sometimes the screen shows connect to itunes but that has been it.
I have the same problem, after upgrading my itouch to iOS6, it doesNOT respond to anything, apple logo stays on the screen all the time and does NOTHING! restore does not work either.... i hope we can get an answer from someone soon... apple support did not have an asnwer.
