TS1538 I got a virus on my computer and just reinstalled itunes but it does not recognize my device. aLSO, how can I restore my itunes and all my songs.

giot a vorus and cannot get itunes to recognize my device now even after reinstalling program

The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.

  • Itunes 10.5 does not recognize cd device except from "my computer"

    I just installed itunes 10.5. When I put a cd into my pc with itunes open and running, nothing happens. If I fully close itunes, go to start>my computer>open cd then itunes opens, gracenote searches for the details of the cd, and the cd device is listed. It is only at this time that itunes recognizes my cd device. After the cd uploads, itunes allows me to eject the cd. All this shows my optical drive is just fine. So help, how do I get itunes to do what it is supposed to do automatically what I am doing manually?
    Thank you for any and all help.

    I had the same issue with itunes 10.5, it would not see the CD drive at all and I couldn't import or even play any music on disc.  Other players on my Win 7 machine saw the drive just fine, I finally remedied the itunes situation by simply changing the drive letter of my drive from B to F, after that itunes saw the drive like it should.  Hope this helps.

  • HT1390 I've rented & downloaded a movie on my computer in itunes, but it does not show up on my Apple TV.  Everything else shows up on Apple TV, including my computer's movie library.  When I click on the movie in Apple TV it says I've already rented it.

    Unfortunately I have to if I download it on my computer.  I have rented itunes movies before directly using the Apple TV and it worked just fine and I could stay in the living room.  Without clicking that icon on my computer, there was no way to watch it.

  • Ipod touch will not turn on and computer does not recognize the device

    I tried resetting my ipod touch, but there is still no response. I have had it plugged into the computer for a couple of days. I don't know if it is charging or what because the screen won't turn on and the computer does not recognize the device. I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes, as well as restarting my computer several times. Does anyone know what to do? I would try restoring it, but like I said my computer doesn't recognize it and itunes doesn't either. Thanks!

    I just had a similar problem and tried all of the reboot techniques with no success. I knew it had to be a connection issue inside the iPod, and grasping at straws, I sprayed a little WD-40. I dried it off and let it sit overnight. Today at lunch I plugged it in to my wall charger and it began charging.
    ***FYI I know they don't recommend spraying WD-40 on your iPod, but it was a last resort for me. I was at the point of paying to send it in for repairs or throwing it away. I wouldn't try this unless you are ready to throw yours away too.

    Hey Stan1958,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPod nano and iTunes. Based on your symptoms, you may find the following resources helpful in resolving this issue:
    Windows
    iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes
    iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
    iTunes reports that "iTunes cannot recognize this iPod at this time"
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How can I restore my itunes on a new computer from an external hard drive without a back up?

    How can I restore my itunes on a new computer?
    I use an external hard drive to store all my information i.e. music / apps / movies but my current laptop has just blown up so now using a temp laptop.
    I am looking to try & restore my itunes & all of its information like my playlists / apps & everything else from the hard drive but it does not have a back up in the programmes to restore from that.
    Currently running Windows 7.
    All I want to do is have my itunes back without the pain of looking & reloading all my info which will take me an age.
    Any hints tips or advice that has worked for you would be greatly appreciated.

    Did you store the media library files on the external drive as well?
    If so press and hold down shift as you start iTunes, use the choose option, and connect to the iTunes Library.itl file on the external drive.
    If not you will need to start a new library and import the content into it. Do you have any devices that might hold ratings and playlists that could be recovered? If so see the second and third entries from the bottom of the table of recovery tools in Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device, and read the rest of it if you have any iOS devices.

  • I downloaded garage band on my iPad ages ago but now it just says waiting and when I click on it it just says "retry" and does nothing. I've spent literally ages making songs (I've got like 20 ). How can I get it back with all my songs still there?

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Computer with Windows Vista SP 2 and Desktop 5.0.0.11 does not recognize the BB via USB

    Hi all,
    I have had an 8100 for some time.  Recently the desktop will communicate to the 8100 via bluetooth but Windows does not recognize the 8100 when I plug it in via USB.  I have tried downloading and reinstall the desktop with no luck.
    Suggestions?

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Here is the list of troubleshooting KB's...hopefully something will be useful:

    KB11439 BlackBerry Desktop Software does not detect the BlackBerry smartphone when it is connected

    Also, check that you are using only root USB ports...no hubs (sometimes the front-side ports are hubs...use a rear USB port). And make sure to try disabling USB power management in your system configuration (Device Manager).
    Apologies in advance if this is redundant -- there's no way to be sure if you've already seen and tried these.
    Hopefully something there is helpful!

  • I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC transfer program. CS5 started up on the new computer OK, but now does not recognize raw files. Should I uninstall and reinstall again?

    I transferred CS5 to a new computer using PC mover ultimate. CS5 appeared to start up normally, I had to insert the serial number from my original CD. However, now the program does not recognize CR files and Adobe bridge is not working properly.  I get messages that CS5 needs to be updated, but the updates fail. What should I do? Should I uninstall CS5 on the new computer, uninstall CS5 on the old computer using the original CD, and then reinstall CS5 using the CD on the new computer?

    Transferring programs does not work well with Adobe applications.  You should install them.
    As far as having the program on different machines goes, you are allowed to have two activated installations so if it is working on the original machine there is no reason to remove it unless you need the space.
