iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
Has this iPod Shuffle ever been able to successfully connect with this PC and sync with iTunes or is the first time you are connecting the iPod Shuffle to this PC?

  • HT1510 My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. I have the original USB cord but when I plug it into my computer there is no recognition. The first time I plugged it in it recognized but never again.

    My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. It is flashing orange and when plugged in with the original USB cable nothing happens to show the computer recognizes it.

    Flashing orange usually means it is being recognized by the computer.  The flashing means do not disconnected, because the shuffle's "disk" is mounted.
    In iTunes (with the shuffle connected), when you look in the sidebar (left side of window), under DEVICES, the iPod is not shown there?  Does it say DEVICES in the sidebar?

  • My iPod Shuffle is not being recognized.

    Please help!
    I recieved my iPod in September 2005. It has been working perfectly fine until this month. I've been trying to add more songs to my iPod. I connected my shuffle to the USB port, and all I am recieving is my iPod blinking orange. I have tried all of the three R's, yet it hasn't affected my results in any way. When trying to download the new iTunes, it would stop downloading or just disappear. If anyone has anything that could help me, please reply!

  • My ipod shuffle is not being recognized by Itunes.

    I tried all the steps in the Apple troubleshooting guide, no luck.  I'm operating a PC, the current version if ITunes and a Version 4 Shuffle.  Can anyone suggest a fix?  Thanks! 

    If you see it in Windows as the F drive, that is good.  So, I wonder why you are not able to follow the procedure to re-assign the drive letter.  If Windows sees the iPod's disk, it should appear in Disk Management. 
    Try shutting down the computer, and disconnecting all USB devices, including hub.  Start up the computer with only standard keyboard and mouse connected, if normally used.  Do this to Reset the shuffle

    Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer (the one you use with your iPod touch).

  • My shuffle is not being recognized.

    My shuffle is not being recognized on my computer.  Have tried all USB ports and cables.  Still nothing.  What can I do to remedy this?  Just purchased several new songs and want to sync to shuffle.

    Are you sure the connections on each end are nice and snug?
