HT1349 my IPOD touch won't be recognized by my DELL Latitude PC and it won't synch. I'm technologically handicapped but all I know is it used to synch whenever I would attach it to computer with USB. Aside from tossing my DELL can anyone help?

My IPOD Touch isn't being recognized by my PC(DELL LatitudeD630) and it won't synch. I'm "technologically handicapped" but all I know is it used to synch whenever I would attach it to PC with USB cable. Aside from tossing my DELL can anyone offer suggestions that might solve this problem ? Thanks

I had this issue, I fixed it by going to:
Start > Control Panel > Devices and Printers
Then find the iPod, and Right Click > Properties > Hardware > Properties > Driver > Update Driver > Update Automatically
The driver had not been automatically installed, and windows found and installed the driver files for me. Took ~90 seconds, and then the iPod began it's sync process almost immediately after. Hope this helps anyone with the same issue! I'd try this before re-installing iTunes.

My ipod 3g wont allow me to restore to factory because my brother forgot the passode and ive tried all the steps on other questions what do i do it wont work.

my brother set a passcode on his ipod and forgot what it was, ive tried all the things other questions ask and a pop up comes and says cannot regester the ipod without unlocking it, what do i do????? anyone know

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

My iPod touch won't be recognized by my macbook.

I plugged in my iPod touch to my macbook this morning and it doesn't even charge. To make sure it wasn't the cable or the USB port, I plugged another USB and it was working fine. It won't appear on either iTunes or Finder. I found a solution that was intall all your updates and then restart your computer but still didn't work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Have you tried resetting the iPOd?
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home

My 2nd generation iPod touch won't turn on no matter what, the last time I turned it on the screen went blue and just completely shut down and it hasn't worked since December 2013, i have connected it to iTunes and did the thing with the home button.

Is their anything else I can try?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod Touch will not be recognized in iTunes 8 on my MacPro

As the subject title suggests, I've got a problem. I've just fully Software Updated my MacPro and it has all the latest software features on it. However, when I try to connect it the USB port on the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen (connected to the MacPro), iTunes doesn't recognize it at all. I do have the latest version of iTunes as well. Although it doesn't recognize the iPod, the iPod does charge. Can anyone help?

Alright, right after posting my question I figured it out. I plugged my iPod into one of the USB ports in the front of the MacPro and it worked like a charm. Now the problem is, what is wrong with the two ports in the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen? That I can't figure out clearly. The USB connection from it to the MacPro is connected.

My ipod touch 2g 8gb has no battery, wont charge on my pc (Hp Pavilion g6 intel Pentium 2.2Ghz, 2 gb) or on my outlet 220W, and it wont turn on. What should I do?

Hi there fCdawg123!
I have an article here that can address this issue for you and give you some further troubleshooting steps:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
As you may note, this article was written for the iPhone, but the steps for troubleshooting will be the same for your iPod touch. This is the section that I believe will help you the most with this issue:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

My iPod touch isn't being recognized by my pc. The lock button on it won't work due to water damage, and a friend of mine fixed the problem by restoring it on his computer. How do I restore it without the lock button?

My daughters iPod touch won't sync, says apps aren't recognized, nothing syncs though

iPod touch won't sync at all. Only message is that some apps aren't recognized. If I reset, will it sync? Or will she have a blank iPod because the "apps aren't recognized"?

Use the communities search box in the upper right of this page and searc for: "the apps can't be determined". Use the quote makes and make sure the wording matches what the error message says.
You will then find the previous discussions with the same error. I do not remember the solution.

My ipod touch won't connect to itunes and its says "unknown device."

My ipod touch is doing what I said already but its doing alot of other things too.. I noticed earlier today that it would bounce back and forth between the old formats of ipod touches when it is the newest generation out and it would go back to the original format. Now it won't even turn on or light up to show the lock screen like it done earlier when it had the brightness off completely and only be seen in a certain spot in external light of my surroundings. When I got home to plug it in, I was going to restart it and wipe it clean but then all of the sudden it wouldn't be read on ITunes or even my computer that would repeat "uknown device." over and over again every time I try to plug it in. I done this to my laptop and PC but I would get the same result every time.
What on earth should I do?? I already done troubleshooting and it didn't do anything at all but only did a small glimce of hope of showing up when i turned off the computer and back on. Shortly after that it would go back to being unreadable. I tried turning it on when I plugged it in too but it still wouldn't do anything but stay black.
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP! I don't know if I should go to an Apple to to fix it or do any other home methods.

Ipod touch won't connect to computer, windows 7, and itunes, and won't charge on my computer

Whenever I plug in my ipod touch to my computer, NOTHING HAPPENS.There is no "bleep" sound, nothing shows up under my computer, nothing shows up in itunes, and my ipod touch won't even charge. How can I fix this?
I have tried many things to fix this issue, including reading and doing everything listed under "iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows".
I have:
- deleted itunes and reinstalled it
- reset my ipod touch using the home and power key
- tried fixing drivers
- using a different cord
- using a different computer (my ipod touch won't even show up on any other computer)
etc.
And yet my ipod touch still will not connect to my computer or itunes, and will not charge on my computer. It charges fine in the wall, though.
I have more information that I believe may be integral to fix this issue:
- My ipod touch is up to date with iOS 8.0.2
- My itunes is up to date with version 11.4
- I tried to connect my ipod using bluetooth, and it shows up like this
(other than this, it won't show up on my computer at all)
- After I had updated my ipod touch and itunes and even synced my ipod (which had worked fine), I had then put a facebook app and facebook message app on my ipod touch, which after I had done that the next day I noticed that my ipod touch would not even show up on my computer at all (so I deleted the apps) and yet the problem is still persisting.
- I installed iCloud on both my ipod touch and my itunes
- Other than what I stated, I have not made any changes to my ipod touch.
In my device manager, NO APPLE PRODUCTS/DRIVERS SHOW UP ANYWHERE
The only place that apple mobile device show up at is here -
