  • Why is my ipod touch 5 not working with itunes? It says it needs to update to itunes 10.7 or later.

    My new ipod touch 5 is working perfectly, almost. When I plugged it in to my laptop for Itunes, the laptop said the ipod needs to update to itunes 10.7 or later. The problem is it won't let me update it. Can somebody help me?

    You need to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to sync it. If you're using Mac OS X 10.6 through 10.6.7, run Software Update twice. If you're running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier and have an Intel Mac, buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.
    If you're using Windows, what happens when you try to update it?

  • My ipod touch 4th gen works on itunes but not show on windows do i need a driver?

    When first time i connect my ipod touch says that the driver for this hardware did not pass windows logo test so i did not installed, and now i need the driver so windows can use it as a storage device anybody knows where or how to get that driver back. helpppp. 

    iPod Touches do not have a disk mode.  However, you can se the iPod in Windows explorer in order to move photos from the iPod to your computer.  You probably need to reinstall iTunes and install the unsigned driver.

  • IPod touch is not working with iTunes

    My iPod touch is no longer recognized by my iTunes even though it has been recognized without problems ever since I bought it. My computer has never crashed, had a virus or any problems at all. Because iTunes didn't recognize it, I was given the option to reset my iPod, which somehow 'timed out'...
    If there are any tricks or things I need to do in order to fix this, please tell me.
    Also, whenever my iPod is connected to my computer, my iTunes will always become unresponsive and I end up having to force quit it.

    Hi,
    I'd suggest reinstalling the Apple Mobile Device Support & iTunes.
    Go into Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
    Click on Apple Mobile Device Support, and click Remove
    Click on iTunes, and click Remove
    Restart the computer
    Re-download and install iTunes here:

  • I have no idea what to do. The iPod touch will not work w/ iTunes and has the apple symbol. It keeps flashing white.

    The ipod was restored to factory settings and now it wont do anything except show the apple symbol and flash white. Then iTunes says it can't connect because of an unknown error.

    Use the search function up to the right. There are a zillion basic setup guides with a simple Google search.

    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?

  • TS1363 My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  Is this repairable?

    My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  I have tried a variety of options, even resetting, but still no luck.

    What does the iPod's screen say or do, when you connect it to USB port on the computer?
    The article referenced is for "regular" iPods.  An iPod touch is an iOS computer, so this article would be more appropriate for troubleshooting.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    Be sure to rule out a faulty USB cable as the cause.  Try another cable, or try the cable you have with another device that has a dock connector.
    Also, you should do this test to rule out a problem with the USB port (such as lack of power or USB device conflict).  Shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used).  If the computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). 
    Then, start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect iPod to a direct USB port on the computer.  If it still does not connect, connect something else to the same USB port to confirm it is working.  Preferably, use something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive.

    Just what have you tried.  There are many Apple articles on the subject and it easy to miss one or more. Did it work before?  Did you do anything to the computer since it last worked?  oDoes the iPod work OK?  Have you tried:
