Itunes does not recognise the ipod after update to itunes 8.2.0.23

Hi, Now find, after putting new songs in my play list, that when I plug in ipod to update songs on ipod itunes does not recognise the ipod.
The version of iTunes I updated to was 8.2.0.23 - everything worked fine until then. I see there is a newer version 8.2.1 now available - do you think by installing this the "unable to recognise" problem would be fixed???
Thanks for your thoughts!

I have a similar problem with the iPhone. Tried everything you can think of and then some. There is apparently some devastating bug 7.6 introduced into normal USB device recognition. I've been able to force the phone into recovery mode; the boot recovery USB driver does still work. Restoring the phone every time I need to sync is both scary and time-consuming.

I have a red X in a circle which sometimes changes to the apple logo but nothing else happens after i try every suggestion; Windows nor itunes does not recognise the ipod; what do you suggest?

You could possibly try a restore from itunes or from the ipod itself, otherwise go get it looked at/replaced, that sounds like a software issue.

ITunes could not contact the iPod software update server

I am a teacher managing many iPod touches.
I am trying to update the ipod software to version 3.1.3 but using my macbook (10.5.8) I cannot reach the update server and a I get the following error - "iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server". I am connected to the internet, I can access the iTunes store no problem.
Using my windows XP laptop I can access the update server and I am using the same network ID and the same proxy settings.
Any ideas?

Forget the wireless modem part of the question. I tried plugging directly into my pc and still have the same problem...very frustrating!

"itunes could not contact the ipod software update server because you are not connected to the internet" Help?

Hello all, new to the forums.
I've been recieving the error message "itunes could not contact the ipod software update server because you are not connected to the internet". This problem didn't occur at all for the past 2 years of using itunes.
I've already scanned through numerous websites and forums for help, but none of them worked.
This set of instructions resulted in no change to any of the problems, though iTunes lists that as the supposed solution.
# Open Internet Options from control panel.
# Click the Connections tab.
# Click the LAN Settings button.
# Select the Automatically detect settings checkbox.
Others include installing IE7, which that didn't work either.
Can anyone help?

I have an iPod Touch 4th gen player and cannot connect to a Sony blu-ray BDV-E970W player. Sony system does not recognise the iPod. Do I need to link the Sony to the net and upgrade the software on the dvd player?

As the other replier said, contact Sony. It may not be compatible with the iPod.

I had a similar problem and your link helped me to solve the problem. Recently I changed my ethernet network card and since then my itunes worked strangely: itunes store worked, podcasts worked, mini-store doesn't, ipod update doesn't and diagnostics says that I had no Internet connection. Attached you can see the report.
It's weired that itunes is based in LAN Connections for sometinhgs and not for the others. Crazy!
Thanks and good luck with your problem.

How can i connect my iphone 4 s with itunes? itune does not recognise the iphone when it is connected

Hi, i have received an iphone 4s from japan! whwn i connect it to my pc, itunes does not recognise it. what can i do?

For this issue you might try a couple things.
First, try to restart the Apple Mobile Device service by clicking Start and searching for Services. Stop the service, then restart the service.
If that doesn't work, you can remove and reinstall iTunes.

ITunes does not recognize my Nano after update to 7.6.0.29

I recently updated my iTunes software to version 7.6.0.29 and my Nano 3rd generation is not recognized anymore. Once it is plugged into the computer, Windows locates it and opens up the Windows Explorer. iTunes does not find the Nano at all.

I have a similar problem with the iPhone. Tried everything you can think of and then some. There is apparently some devastating bug 7.6 introduced into normal USB device recognition. I've been able to force the phone into recovery mode; the boot recovery USB driver does still work. Restoring the phone every time I need to sync is both scary and time-consuming.

Ipod shuffle not recognised by computer after update to iTunes 7

I have just updated to iTunes 7 and now my computer will not recognise my iPod Shuffle. ("Periferique USB inconnu" - unknown USB peripheral in English.)
I have tried to reset it but until it appears in either the iTunes source window or in Windows explorer there is nothing more I can do.
Another problem is that when I try to run the iPod updater 2006-1-10 it tells me that I have the incorrect version of iPod service amd then aborts.
Finally I have misplaced my iPod installation disk so I cannot try reinstalling it.
Can anyone out there help me???

Unsolved till yet. I´ve read all the other threads touching this theme, but nothing substantial. No solution. No comments of Apple.
I´ve take a look into the files with Wordpad and I can see the lyrics inside the files. But, again, with the iPod nothing except the title.

ITunes tells me there is new software updates available for my nano and when I press update it tells me that iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server b/c I'm not connected to the internet (I know that I am or I could not submit this)?

So anyone know why the iPod software update server connot connect to my PC when I know that I'm on the internet?

Hey guys, I need help. I started using mi ipod last week. I could connect it OK to Itunes. Then when I connected again some software update was installed. After that Itunes does not recognise my ipod and now it says it needs to be "restaurado". HELP

I've tried many solutions they gave me but I can get Itunes to recognise my Ipod. I'm starting to get frustrated with this device,

There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
