TS1538 I have the new version of itunes and my ipad, my daughters ipod touch and her ipod mini are not being recognized when we plug in to itunes

I want to sync my iPad and when I plug the USB cable to it, itunes doesn't recognize it. I have the latest itunes version, I've turned off and turn back on my iPad, I've shutdown and restarted my computer a few times. I just bought a few tv shows and it just won't sync. I was able to sync my old iPod touch, but my daughters new iPod touch is not reconized and neither is her new iPad mini.

I reset iPod 2G for a friend and now it needs an update however it is not being recognized when I plug it into iTunes. How do I fix this so he can use it for games?

When I plug the iPod touch into my mac, iTunes comes up however it doesn't show the iPod in the left menu area. I'm very illiterate in all of this.

See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, assuming you use Windows.

IPod Touch 4G 8GB charging perfectly, but not being recognized by Windows 7 OR iTunes?

Ipod touch charging, but not recognized by Itune or windowes, other divises are ( Iphone4 , Ipad) only my itouch is not... Should I reset it ?

Hi lllaass,
This looks like a very common problem.
I tried everything. Reset, Safe Mode, checked all cable, Apple Services from the dminstration tools.... other devises, like my Iphone and Ipad works perfectly.Only this itouch doesn't. If I reset all I will loss all my data since I can't back it up. It's jailbroken and it was wotking fine. Could it be software that I downloaded recently?I'm not sure it will work even if reset all. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

My iPod is stuck on the Apple logo and won't do anything! It won't turn on, doesn't give me the option to power it off, and to top it all off, it's not being recognized by my computer OR by iTunes when I plug it into my computer.

So yeah...last night I was checking out my iPod (bored at the in-laws) and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the only thing I can get it to do is have the black screen w/ the white apple logo on it. It won't turn on, doesn't give the the option to power down, it won't charge, AND it's NOT being recognized when I plug it into my computer. Not by iTunes OR my computer. I've tried holding down the top button and the home button at the same time...nothing. And since it's not being recognized on my computer, I cannot restart it or go back to factory settings. Someone please help! I've had it for 18 months so the warranty is no longer valid and I don't know how to fix it. THANK YOU in advance!

- I would try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then see if iTunes will see the iPod. try both with the iPod not connected to the computer and with it connect. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Next see if placing the the iPod in DFU mode will make it visible

Was your CS5 a student/teachers edition?
A Volume Discount version?
An upgrade from an earlier suite?
Or the full-scale version?

HT1420 I have the new version of the macbook pro and I cannot find authorize this computer anywhere on itunes. I have read the directions multiple times and still cannot find it. Please help!

I have the newer version of the macbook pro and I have read the directions on how to authorize your computer to let you download previous song purchases from icloud onto your laptop, but I cannot find where it says "authorize this computer" at all. I have looked for it everywhere and still cannot find it. Please help!

Authorization and Deauthorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

Hi
Did You ever use - iPhoto ?
Did You may be direct iPhoto to a different Photo Library
As iMovie tries to find the appropriate photo library - it can get lost if iPhoto direct it into a Library on a not connected external hard disk or to a strange location - And iMovie HANGS.
Do - When no other program is running that might interfere
• Start iPhoto - BUT NOW KEEP alt-key (option key) DOWN during the full Start-Up process
• Now iPhoto let's You select Photo Library
• Select the one in Your Account / Home folder / Pictures ! !
• Then iPhoto should start up OK
• Now Quit iPhoto
• START iMovie
Does it still hangs - then I would suspect - iMovie Pref. file
If it Run's OK - Then HURRAY !

Even when I download and install the new version of firefox, I get the messsage that I don't have the new version.

how do I know if I have the new version installed?

Hi janeginsburg,
Looking at your system details, you are running the latest version. You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
You should try changing your home page to:
about:home
If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
Hopefully this helps

You get all the new iWork suite (Pages 5, Numbers 3 & Keynote 6) free with your Mac purchase. You just need to go to the App Store and sign in with your Apple I.D.
We warn against relying on the new iWork Apps, they really are just public betas and we are getting a number of users here with unopenable files. Bad news if this is your Masters.
iWork '09 can be purchased as a Boxed DVD set from Amazon US$27, or online.
It is much more usable and safer (not totally).
LibreOffice [free] does not have as polished a UI but is actively supported, and uses open file formats as well as MsOffice formats. It also has the advantage of opening/saving virtually every known format on the planet (wish it would do Pages!) and has a usable but not briliant intgrated database.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

When I upgraded to Firefox 4.0 I saw a message that said the new version was no longer compatble with CLIPMATE. What can I do now? Are there similar clipping extensions?

I named the wrong program. It should be CLIPMARKS, sorry.

I have been trying to remove all residual apple files from my computer in order to fully reinstall iTunes. My devices are not being recognized by iTunes currently. I keep finding an Apple file under C/: Program files/ common files/ ......Apple.. under that there is an Internet Services file folder.. I am the administrator and yet it says I need permission to remove these files.
Please advise.

See Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for some tips on cleaning up... Unlocker might be the tool in this case.

Did you update your operating system? If so, did it solve the problem? I have not updated my OS because so many people complained that the newer Os's had problems.

My apps are not being updated when pressing the update all button. It just says installing and no update is being done., my apps are not being updated when pressing the update all button. It just says installing and no update is being done.

Must be serious because you have stated the problem 4 times now.
Here are a number of things that you can try and maybe one of them will help.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
You can also try going to the App Store, find an app that needs an update, tap on the app icon to bring up the description page, then tap on install that way, rather than using the Update option from the app updates screen.
And ... You can always install the updates in iTunes on your computer and then sync them to the iPad.
