  • My 4th gen ipod touch and my 6th gen ipod touch is not recognized by windows 8 or itunes

    Help! Both of my ipods are refusing to be recognized by both windows 8 and itunes. I've tried many different things from redownloading itunes, plugging the cables into different usb ports, using different cables, etc. I'm upset because I have no other ipods availabe and I really cannot afford to buy another one.

    Hello Caitlin,
    I'd suggest taking a look through the following article for a whole host of useful troubleshooting steps that can help get your iPods to reappear in iTunes.

  • Ipod recognized in windows, not by itunes. i've seriously tried everything!

    hi all
    looked everywhere for the answer to see if this has been discussed but this is the weirdest i've ever seen any of my ipods behave. ok...
    30gb 5.5 generation ipod. plugged it in one day, won't sync to windows. froze up itunes only but not all of windows. funny. tried it again. says ipod is corrupt. attempted to restore it, but as soon as i hit the restore button, itunes freezes again. after about a dozen attempts i finally get it to the "restoring ipod" dialog box, but that gets stuck too and i have to restart. ipod stuck on "do not disconnect".
    so i trialed and errored. tried 3 different usb-ipod cords. same thing. plugged in my oldschool 20gb ipod. windows and itunes both recognized that instantly and synced it. tried my 4gb iphone. same thing: windows synced that and recognized that.
    finally took it to the apple store. the guy restored it for me on a mac. says it must be my computer. plugged it back in today (mind you, it's all reset, except i need to reformat it from mac to windows) and guess what, doesn't work. i took it to my brother's laptop computer, worked fine on there. restored it to windows based platform. got home tonight from a yummy thanksgiving dinner and hey, guess what, won't work!!!! same problems.
    i've tried different cords, ipods, iphone, different computers and i am still not sure if the computer is the culprit or the ipod. oh and for the record, i have a custom built, quad-core 2gb desktop computer, and i have plenty of power, so it meets all the itunes requirements.
    any help would be a blessing. karma police will thank you.

    i have a similar problem. it doesnt freeze itunes, just makes it very slow. i tried restoring it but it was going for about 2 hours and was still in the first phase
    also, every time i connect the ipod, i have to open itunes myself, and it thinks its an ipod it hasnt seen before (although the name is the same). it also de-authorizes any songs i got from the itunes store and so they dont get copied to my ipod.
    this is most annoying, im sure all i have to do is restore it but i dont know how to do that if itunes wont do it.
    thanks

  • What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message

    Greetings fellow Podders, Resident Furball here...
    It is about time that I produced a single post for all the chkdsk issues that we've been discussing since November 2004. The Apple KB article seems to cover the major points succinctly, but we need to address the more serious variations and flavours of the problem.
    <hr>
    What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message
    Many users are coming across this seemingly distressing error message in Windows when connecting their iPods. As described in Apple KB Article 300554, the message reads:
    iTunes: iTunes.exe - Corrupt File
    The file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes\????????? is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility.
    and the ????????? can be anything (eg. sysinfo, Temp1, DeviceInfo etc.).
    <hr>
    Don't panic!
    If you do see this, don't worry, and don't panic. Contrary to what the error message reads, this issue actually has very little to do with iTunes. The iPod_Control is the key to this - because this folder doesn't even exist in iTunes... it's on the iPod!
    ...so! Installing and uninstalling iTunes really won't do you much good at all... it's the iPod that needs attention.
    <hr>
    What's causing this error?
    To be honest, we don't know. We saw a massive number of reports of this issue back in November 2004, because iPod Updater 2004-11-15 contained a firmware bug that corrupted iPod system files when the Pod entered Deep Sleep.
    But this firmware bug was corrected in iPod Updater 2005-06-26.
    Of late, we have seen a resurgence in chkdsk errors on Discussions. Some of these are caused by the old buggy firmware that people still have. Some of the errors are more serious and are hardware and operating system-related. But we have still to pin down the exact cause of this error.
    <hr>
    Okay, so what do I do if I see this error?
    In short, as Apple have recommended in their KB article:
    Restore your iPod, using the latest iPod Updater.
    Follow the instructions carefully. Ensure that you download the iPod Updater. Ensure that you install it, and then ensure that you run it with the iPod connected and follow the prompts to the letter.
    The broad majority of the errors are painlessly fixed this way. Of course, it does mean that your iPod will be wiped, so make sure that you have your music/data backed up, and/or present in iTunes so you can resynchronise it when you have finished Restoring.
    <hr>
    Okay, I've Restored, but the error is still coming up
    Are you sure you've Restored? Quite a number of folks are assuming that just downloading the iPod Updater is enough. It's not. And neither is downloading iPod Updater, and installing it on your computer. It needs to be implemented on the iPod, according to the iPod Updater instructions.
    Okay, so if you have Restored your iPod, and you are still getting this error, then you have a variety of options available.
    Chkdsk errors that are not fixed with a Restore are most likely down to two things:
    1) A physical issue on the iPod itself
    or
    2) An issue on the computer's operating system
    Here's where it gets woolly. There are a variety of things you could try...
    Format the iPod in Windows
    This would usually have the same effect as a Restore, but a deep-level format in Windows is something that Apple have recommended in the past, as a last resort to completely wipe the iPod before performing a Restore with iPod Updater. This process wipes the iPod.
    To do this:
    1) Enable Disk Mode on the iPod. You can do this either in iTunes (which is best), or manually on the iPod itself.
    2) Open My Computer and locate your iPod
    3) Right-click the iPod and select Format
    4) Leave the parameters set at their defaults, and ensure Quick Format is unchecked
    5) Hit Format
    6) Then Restore your iPod as normal.
    Run the Chkdsk utility
    You could run the chkdsk utility on your iPod. But Restoring your iPod has the same effect as running chkdsk. Chkdsk does not wipe your iPod.
    1) Enable Disk Mode as above
    2) Determine the drive letter of your iPod from My Computer
    3) Go to Start, Run
    4) Type cmd. Hit Enter to take you to the Command Prompt.
    5) Type chkdsk /f X:, where X is the drive letter of your iPod. Hit Enter, and any corrupt files are found and corrected.
    Run Windows ScanDisk
    ScanDisk is the Windows version of Chkdsk. It does not wipe your iPod.
    1) Enable Disk Mode
    2) Right-click the iPod in My Computer, select Properties
    3) Select Tools
    4) Select the option to scan the disk for errors
    Try changing the Drive Letter of the iPod
    Sometimes Windows confuses the drive letters, and this can cause the iPod to be adversely affected. Try the instructions detailed in Apple KB Article 93499 to change the drive letter of the iPod. This does not wipe your iPod.
    Try changing Hardware Policies for the iPod
    The Hardware Policies in Windows have been known to affect the way in which the iPod connects, synchronises, and disconnects. This does not wipe your iPod.
    1) Enable Disk Mode so the iPod appears in My Computer
    2) Right-click the iPod in My Computer
    3) Select Properties
    4) Select Hardware Policies
    5) Select Optimize for Performance (instead of Optimize for Removal)
    6) Restart your computer.
    Contact Apple for a replacement iPod
    Some chkdsk issues have been caused by faulty hardware. As a last resort, contact Apple Support by phone to report your issue, and/or request an iPod Service.
    If you explain that you have followed all these steps, you should have a strong case for obtaining a replacement iPod.
    <hr>
    Thanks!
    Thank you to everyone for their continued support, kindness and excellent troubleshooting skills here on Discussions. There are countless people that I am deeply grateful to for their assistance in handling this issue. Rest assured folks, you have made me the Discussions Furball that I am today.
    Happy Podding folks!

    iPod Updater 2006-03-23 has been released
    iPod Updater 2006-03-23 includes iPod Software 1.1.1 for the new iPod and new iPod Software 1.1.1 for iPod nano.
    iPod Updater 2006-03-23 contains the same software versions as iPod Updater 2006-01-10 for all other iPod models.
    What's new in iPod Updater 2006-03-23:
    - Volume limit
    - Bug fixes
    I have been trying to ascertain from Apple Support Level 2 as to whether the latest iPod firmware improves or provides better resolution for the chkdsk issue. If anyone has been using iPod Updater 2006-03-23 to resolve their chkdsk woes, feel free to post in here just to say how things worked out for you...

    Please!
    Thanks!

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

    If you've already tried a complete uninstall and reinstall try opening iTunes in safe mode (hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. You may find iTunes will now start normally.

  • I can't subscribe to Match on Win 7 with iTunes 10.6.3.25. When Apple ID auth window comes up iTunes crashes with "iTunes stopped working" and iTunes closes.

    On Windows 7 with iTunes 10.6.3.25 I cannot subscribe to iTunes Match. In iTunes I click on iTunes Match in the left pane then click the "Subscribe for $25 a year" button. A window that looks like I am going to be asked to login using my Apple ID and password starts to come up but then an error occurs and I get a window that says "iTunes stopped working" then iTunes closes. What can I do ?

    I've also read somewhere about using Win Rar to extract files to do with apple mobile device support from the itunes installer file, would you recommend that to? I don't really fancy the idea of doing anything that involves my registry because knowing me I'll end up screwing my laptop up for good lol
    It's a little more involved than just doing a standalone AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi install, I'm afraid. The relevant drivers in AMDS are not digitally signed for 64-bit XP, so you have to force XP to accept a driver install that it would try its damnedest to not do. There's no driver issues for other 64-bit componentry in the installer package (I think the GEAR drivers install on XP 64-bit systems), but I believe there's still a bit of fancy footwork involved in getting them installed too ... although it's been a long time since I've looked at an instruction set, and I might not be recalling those things correctly. (So if you're not comfortable with system modifications, it might be best to steer clear of the Orca-based techniques ...)

  • How do I do this to use OVerdrive media on deviceThe Apple device must be formatted for use with Microsoft Windows.  The iTunes setting 'Manually manage music-' must be enabled for the device before you can complete the transfer.

    Notes on Transferring OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks…
    Most MP3 capable devices should play OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks.
    If you intend to transfer OverDrive MP3 Audiobooks to an Apple® device, note the following…
    iTunes® v9.0.2 (or newer) is required.
    The Apple device must be formatted for use with Microsoft® Windows®.
    The iTunes setting 'Manually manage music…' must be enabled for the device before you can complete the transfer. Adjust this setting in iTunes as follows…
    Connect the iPod® to your computer.
    If it does not launch automatically, open iTunes v9.0.2 (or newer).
    In iTunes, locate the device in the left vertical navigation panel (under heading 'DEVICES'), and click the device.
    The 'Summary' screen is displayed. 
    Place a checkmark next to 'Manually manage music…'.
    Click the 'Apply' button.
    The iTunes 'Summary' screen refreshes, and the changes are saved.
    If desired, close iTunes.
    Note that if an Apple device is connected to your computer, you can choose to simultaneously transfer a title to the iTunes Library and the Apple device. If you wish to only transfer a title to the iTunes Library, you must first disconnect the Apple device

  • How to prevent iTunes for Windows from "Updating iTunes Library"? (Library is on a NAS and managed by iTunes for Mac. Now getting update wars between Mac and Windows versions of the player.

    How to prevent iTunes for Windows from "Updating iTunes Library"?
    My library is on a NAS and managed by iTunes on a Mac. I can connect from wife's Windows laptop using iTunes for Windows but every time I do, it Updates iTunes Library. Next time I log in from my Mac it Updates iTunes Library in return. It appears I'm experiencing "Update Wars" between the Mac and Windows versions of iTunes. I would like to allow my wife to stream iTunes songs to her new laptop but I don't want any updates from this source... prefer to manage the library from my Mac and not allow Windows to do any thing other than listen to existing playlists.
    Thanks for any help/suggestions.

    Connect the PC to the library on the NAS. Wait while "updated".
    Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced make sure the media folder is correctly pointed at the media folder on the NAS. If not correct, close iTunes, wait a few moments, then open iTunes again.
    Close iTunes on the PC. Do not open iTunes on the Mac.
    Copy the library files, iTunes Library.itl, iTunes Library Extras.itdb, iTunes Library Genius.itdb, sentinel and the folder Album Artwork into an empty iTunes folder on the PC, for example C:\iTunes.
    Click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down SHIFT. Keep holding until prompted to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to the copied .itl file, e.g. C:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
    The library should now work properly on the PC, however check the setting for the media folder. If needs be correct, close iTunes and reopen.
    Open iTunes on the Mac. It will update again, but that should be last time.
