My ipod touch is not recognized on itunes and will not turn on or even give me the battery sign that it is dead. I turned it off and it won't turn back on now. The screen is completely black and won't do anything. I have tried charging it over night and nothing happened. It was never near water. I have tried troubleshooting it by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button, but nothing happened and it didn't work. What can I do to fix it?

    I can't seem to get my Ipod touch to be recognized by Itunes now that I'm using my new upgraded Windows 8 Pro.  Has anyone else experienced this problem and do you have a solution?
    Thanks.

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I have this same problem. It's like it is not Authorizing this Mac.
    What happens when you try to listen to a preview on the Music Store?
    Mine asks me to authorize again and gives me the error exactly as you said above.
    What happens when you try to view your account information (in Music Store, click on your account name in the top right corner)?
    Mine lets me authorize sucessfully and shows me my account information.
    I have emailed iTunes support about this and they replied with a generic answer about Deauthorizing and re-authorizing the computer.
    I even tried, to no avail, the tips here...

  • How do I get my IPod Touch to be recognized by ITunes

    A few weeks ago I brought my Ipod Touch in to connect to ITunes to resynch (bring it up to date). It had been some time since I had done that even though the IPod was working just fine tethered to by 2012 VW Jetta by way of in-vehicle connection. When ITunes connected the IPOd basicaally stopped working and I have not been able to get it back on line. ITunes said it was an IPod in recovery mode when I first connected it so I let it go through the motions. Now when connected to my IMac the screen lights up and the Apple logo comes on for about 30 seconds, then the screen goes black again and the whole process starts again - Screen lights up, Apple logo comes on for 30 nseconds and then it goes black and starts again. The Itunes never again sees the IPod on the left hand side of the screen.
    Any clues on what is going on and how to the solve the problems would be helpful. This is an IPod that would not upgrade beyond 5.? I know I purchase it several years ago, but the exact date escapes me.

  • TS1538 My iPod Touch isn't recognized in itunes.

    My ipod touch isn't recognised in iTunes on the computer I always use to sync music onto it. (I can't see "Omar's iPod" in the left column.)
    When I plug it in and I open up iTunes, the device isn't shown.
    However, the device is shown in My Computer.
    When I plug it into other computers, iTunes recognises my device. (I can see "Omar's iPod" in the left column.)
    I've tried every method, except for Recovery Mode because I don't want to lose any of the files on my iPod.
    I've done every method in the Apple trouble shooting manuals.
    I need iTunes to recognise my device, help please.

  • My ipod touch 64 gig with 27 gig free will not allow me to play movies I've sunk from itunes.

    I sync movies from my itunes to my ipod touch. The movies are a light grey color and will not play. This has occurred recently. I just discovered that Movies in setting needed to have me signed into apple with my apple id. I now have the apple id logged in under movies in setting on my ipod touch. The movie remains grey. I just rebooted. No changes to color or function of movie. I go to the cloud and load it, the movie works.
    I have had my ipod touch for several years and have never experienced this issue in the past. Please help me find answers?

    If you don't want a playlist on your iphone, then uncheck that playlist under the music tab, and sync.
    You cannot have sync all music checked as this will sync ALL music.

  • Ipod touch stuck on 'connect to itunes' - Restore is not working

    We've got an Ipod touch (no idea on generation) that we were trying to sync some apps to from a laptop (not mac), they wouldn't sync so we tried resetting the ipod and syncing everything together. After resetting when we tried to access the ipod on itunes it just came up with 'could not connect to itunes store' (where we are it is currently blocked) which meant that we could not access the ipod via itunes in any way and then ipod was then stuck on the 'connect to itunes' screen.
    We tried turning both it and laptop off and on again, disconnecting etc. Then tried the restore using the home and on/off button which triggered the restore via itunes by putting it into recovery mode and it downloads everything fine but the ipod still remains on the connected to itunes screen - we've now tried restoring it 4 or 5 times.
    I was confused as to why the ipod wanted to connect to the itunes store in the first place because it has never asked to do so before and as it is blocked here then for every sync before this it has not been connected nor has it wanted to be. Perhaps it's to do with the apps? But there are apps already on the ipad. Perhaps taking the laptop and ipod to somewhere with wireless where the itunes store isn't blocked will allow us to access the ipod and restore/reset/sync and that will fix the issue?
    We're loathe to take it all the way to the nearest apple shop, especially on a wet Sunday, just for them to tell us that their only advice is to trigger the recovery mode which we know doesn't work! So any other advice is much appreciated.
    Just to clarify, we have been through recovery mode 4 or 5 times and done a full restore on it, with it downloading all the software and firmware and it hasn't worked.

    To restore an iPod an internet connection to the iTunes store is is required. iTunes on the computer has to g to the Apple server to verify that it is using the latest firmware update.
