  • Hey my iPod is not showing up on iTunes and my computer doesn't recognize it. It runs out of battery very fast and only shows the 'Connect to iTunes" screen. What do I do?

  • 8g Second Gen, iPod Touch wont show up on iTunes?

    I use a Mac OSX, Snow Leopard.
    I've tried several different chargers with my iPod, but it wont show up on iTunes. iPhoto will come up and say it's synced, and the iPod itself will show that it is charging. But it wont show up on iTunes so I can listen to my music or add songs. This is random, and has never happened before.
    Any help?

  • Why isn't my iPod Touch (4G) showing up in iTunes or in My Computer??

    Well my iPod Touch (4th Generation) was working great until yesterday. I was trying to update the software (iOS 4.3.3) and after 4 HOURS it tells me that it cannot install the update and now my iPod won't show up in iTunes or My Computer and it is showing the screen it usually does before you set it up. I checked the Device Manager...(Windows XP) and it's showing up as "Apple Mobile Device." I tried searching for hardware changes but nothing is working...I mean I am constantly fixing the iPods of other people but this time I can't even fix mine...oh and as a side note I did restart the computer and then after a while turned it off...I tried restarting my iPod too but to no avail. Please help!!!
    Thanks!!=)

    Put the Touch into recovery mode, then it should be recognized so that you can do a Restore:

  • HT1766 i just bought iPod touch 8GB put it in iTune and it show only 34Mb available. and it been use 6.2GB (other on Summery) no App. sync. I don't have enough space to sync any application!?

    I just bought iPod touch 8GB put it in iTune and it show only 34Mb available. and it been use up 6.2GB show from the iTune Summery as "OTHER 6.2 GB" so I don't have enoght space to sync any much application for my kids. How do i do? I already make sure it has no Picture, songs ...all only app that come with the factory default. How do I do? or something wrong..
    I got iPhone and another ipod touch (32GB) but it has a lot of space available...I just can't fix it out what OTHER  6.2GB used came from?

    Other can be files that the iPod has "lost" or can no longer recognise.
    So either you bought this second hand and it had someone else's stuff on it, or you were unlucky and the first Sync of your iPod to iTunes resulted in a lot of "Other".
    Conect the iPod to iTunes and on the Device/Summary pane (tab) look for and select the Restore button.
