Nano not recognised on windows or itunes and will not charge, help!!!!

i went to update my ipod the other day and it said that the ipod was corrupted, so i took it out and pluged it back in again and it worked fine. then i went to charge my ipod on the computer a couple of days later and its not regognised on windows or itunes and will not charge!
i have reset, restarted and updated etc and nothing has happened. i have read other thru peoples messeges who have simular problems and they say that reinstalling and reseting to factory conditions doesnt work.
can someone please help me or has any one had the same problem? thanks

can i put it into disk mode if the computer doesnt recognise it at all?
Yes, you can.
"Putting your iPod into disk mode" is simply a process that involves pressing a few buttons on your iPod, getting it into Disk Mode.
To put your iPod into Disk Mode, follow the steps in this article -> Putting your iPod into Disk Mode
As Bryan said, see if the iPod is recognized by your computer when it's in disk mode.

  • ITouch not connecting to windows or itunes, and will not charge.

    Okay, so, I was charging my iTouch one day in my computer, and every time I plug it in, iTunes launches and then starts to automatically sync my iTouch, which I DO NOT WANT. Anyways, I quit the sync from itunes as I always do, but this time, when I tried to quit, nothing happened and itunes froze up. 1 Ctrl+Alt+Dlt later, I tried to end the program, it was being pesky so I had to try and end it a few times. My iTouch finished charging and I hane not thought anything of it since then. The day after that, I was trying to charge my iTouch before work, and I went to get ready while it was charging. I came back to an iTouch that was not charged at all. It does not connect to Windows or iTunes, but still for some reason retains enough battery to display the battery symbol. I have used the iTunes helper to try and guide me through the problem, but the steps I took did not fix the problem and I do not feel like taking my iTouch in to get serviced. So, in overview, my iTouch will not charge, connect to windows or iTunes, all after I ended iTunes from the task manager. My iTunes works just fine, my iTouch is the problem. I dont know what operating system it is running on, and I dont know how to update it, but it is at least 4.3.1.
    P.S. I would love to get some speedy help on this. If its any reward, you have many internets up for grabs for answering my question. Over 9000 ^_^

    - Try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next try placing the iPOd in recovery mode to see if that will make the iPod visible in iTunes so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • HT1567 My lap top is not recognising my pre recorded cd and will not burn a cd. Help

    Help! My lap top is not recognising a pre recorded cd in itunes and it wont burn a cd. Anyone know why?

    Try (copy & paste):
    drutil eject -drive internal
    then insert a disc.
    If that doesn't do the trick, Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, and try again.

    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?

  • CD Ripped Music on iPhone6 Greyed out in iTunes and will not Sync/Transfer

    I recently added my MP3 files back into iTunes.  I didn't seem to have any issues transferring any of these songs to my iPod Nano or work iPhone4s.  When I try to transfer these items to my new iPhone6 they are greyed out in iTunes and will not transfer.  I can, however, view and play the library when switching to the hone share file on wi-fi.
    What am I not able to transfer these songs to my iPhone6?

    Actually I just corrected this on my own by syncing specific items and checking nothing at all and then going back to select everything.

    I understand you have been experiencing issues with your iPhone restarting and showing you a blue screen.  I wont be able to give you an exact answer as to why this is happening.  However, this is the most relevant troubleshooting article for this issue.  This article also provides options to reach out to us via phone for additional assistance.

  • Rented movies showing up twice in iTunes and will not transfer to my iPad 2 because "already transfered to another computer or device."

    Rented movies show up twice in iTunes and will not transfer to my iPad 2 because "already transfered to another computer or device."  Ideas on how to enable movie sync?

    My understanding is that rented movies can be viewed on only one device - the device that originally received the movie.  Consequently, they can not be synced.
    I can not explain why you see them twice in iTunes.

    Hi jonathanianking,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPhone is showing the iTunes logo and a USB adapter cable. Take a look at the article linked below, it will walk you through restoring the iPhone from recovery mode.

    Have you tried starting up in Safe Mode? If not, I suggest that you give it a try. This will take quite awhile longer than a normal startup because it does a file check and repair of the hard disk.
    If this works you will see your normal desktop. Once completely started up in Safe Mode, try to restart normally, and go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility. Click on the top hard drive icon in the left sidebar and note the S.M.A.R.T. status at the bottom right of the pane. What does it say?
    Select the named boot volume in the left sidebar, ("Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it). What is the hard drive capacity and how much space remains available on it? Repair permissions on it.
    See if you are able to do a little hard drive maintenance to help things out.

  • Shuffle is not recognised by Windows or iTunes on first installation

    Hi
    Just got an Ipod shuffle, which was marked down in price due to missing ear phones. Tried the installation software but when asked to connect shuffle to check to see if it needs formating did so, and the shuffle is not recognised by windows or the installer software.
    Tried to go through apple chat, but when prompted for S/N it says that my shuffle was registered in Aug 2005 and not valid for chat support anymore. I suspect that the shuffle is returned goods and that it may already be registered to another user. Would this stop my computer recognising it?
    Have downloaded updater and run that, same result.
    OS is Windows XP Pro
    USB port confirmed working
    Itunes 6.0.4.2
    Ipod Nano running okay on same machine.
    Ipod Shuffle is only showing constant green light when plugged into USB port (showing that it is at least getting power)
    Any ideas, there seem to be similar threads to this so is it a common problem.
    thanks

    Same as, although a new development on this last night, I borrowed a mates USB hub that has it's own mains power supply and for a short time my laptop recognised my IPOD, I obviously thought i had found the solutions as it started to sync at which point the smug smile left my face as i could smell burning plastic. Yep, the usb cable was melting in to the USB hub. so not only won't the sodding thing work properly it is a god **** fire hazard. Luckily our producst that cost hundreds of pounds are supported by friendly and helpful people at Apple!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Oh and i downloaded itunes 7.6 last night and nothing.
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ipod 5 not recognised by windows or Itunes, no drivers found in devmgmt.msc

    Hello there.
    My Ipod 5th Gen is having problems. When I try to connect it to my windows 8 laptop I get nothing. Not even an "unrecognised device" message. I am guessing there is no driver to process it, or something like that. All my other USB devices are working.
    I have tried all the ideas listed on the support. when I take a screenshot and try to find it as a camera, nothing appears. There is no "portable devices" section, no "other devices" section. It is completely unresponsive.
    I have no conflicting software, and everything has been reinstalled, including AMDS.
    Here is a screenshot of my Devmgmt.msc:
    thanks In advance.

    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
