1st generation ipod touch not recognised by computer or itunes

My first generation iPod touch is no longer being recognized by my laptop or itunes. It wont charge etc or even show up in my computer. It will how ever charge through other things, such as through an xbox and a power supply. The USB sockets work fine on my laptop, phone connects perfectly, only issue is with the iPod. The trouble shooting only dealt with itunes but none of the issues it bought up were relevant, everything it suggested has been tried and tested and doesn't work. What can i do?

  • 1st generation ipod touch not charging/syncing to my Mac.

    My ipod touch 1st generation is not syncing or charging to my mac.  In fact I have 2 - of the same ipods and both suddenly quit syncing/charging.  Although I have used the same docking port on my mac for months ... I tried a different port and still nothing.  The ipod lights up with the apple screen and then goes to the home screen - but nothing happens after that.   ITunes shows no devices as well.  The ipod just eventually goes to sleep. 
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • 2nd generation iPod touch not syncing with computer

    When I plug in my 2nd generation 8g iPod touch, it doesn't say "syncing" and it doesn't show up as a device on my computer. I tested the cord with a wall charger, and it's not the cord's problem. Is it because my iPod is an older system? My iTunes updated by itself so it's the newest version. Help!!!

    I have unfortuantly had the exact same problem following my update to iTunes 11.
    Incase someone explains the problem for me and not you, here is the link to my post. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4755057
    Best of luck getting it to work!

  • TS1369 ipod touch not recognized by computer or itunes

    My iPod Touch is not recognized by my computer or itunes. I believe this happened after the recent upgrade for latest fixes.

    See:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Also, if you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • My IPod touch not connecting to computer or itunes, it only charges

    I Have an IPod touch 4g and when i plug it in the computer, it charges but it doesnt connect to Itunes or My computer?
    Ive tried using a different cable there was no difference, I tried pluggin it in a different computer, still the same problem, reboot my IPod, I tried going to service at menu at the computer and restarting IPod device.
    None of them worked. Im wondering if its my IPod touch. Can someone please help me? I have been looking for a solution but still no luck :(

    Looks like a hardware failure, you'll have to get it serviced by visiting an Apple Store or by contacting Apple:

  • Why is my 4th generation iPod Shuffle not recognised by the new Itunes 11?

    Made the old mistake of "upgrading", this time to iTunes 11. I'm sure it is all very exciting and pretty and what have you, but as I can no longer see my device in iTunes it is all pretty pointless. Anyone else having this? Any solutions out there (as reverting to previous iTunes is, of course, a no-go - so double thanks, Apple!).

    - While charging 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 restoring the iPod via iTunes.  First from backup and if still problem restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    - However, I really think that the iPod has a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.  If defective Apple should give you a refurbished iPod.

  • Why do the new earphones not work with 1st Generation iPod touch?

    Does the 1st generation iPod touch not "recognise" [recognize if you are American] these functions? I am talking about the microphone and the button on the new earphones.

    Then why don't apple make ear phones with microphone which the 1st gen itouch will recognised...
    Because the Touch is primarily a music player, that is what I purchased and I'm quite satisfied with it as it is.
    I'm so fed up of the way Apple Market...
    What are their plans for their consumers... to
    to keep buying new Ipods?!?!?!
    Err...Yes! Welcome to the real world.
    3G Iphone was released shortly after the Iphone...
    why couldnt they make us wait longer...and get the 3G
    You still don't understand this commercial world do you?
    same with Ipod Touch... yes i Understand new Gen ipods...would have better features...
    Let's all wait a hundred years when they bring out the the brain implants...
    But hey wats up with making us fall with Apple...we like the designs, the features...but why then bring in new ones that apple know will not let our old ipods adapt to it.
    You like the design, you buy it, enjoy what you have and don't get so jealous.
    Sick of Apple... they do it on purpose... I guarantee...
    No way?!
    the new Iphone to realease next year....would be Iphone 8.0 mega pixels camera video recording....either way...they would make their customers regret for buying their old Iphones and Ipods...
    If so, then I might buy one, but then I wouldn't moan if a better one was released six months later.
    4 now, do something about the new ear head phones....cos apart of app store and applications...we want to be ablt to use microphones...to communicate on social networking...and voice memos...
    This maybe because the hardware is simply incompatible, they cannot cover every eventuality, had they done so the Touch would have been more expensive and I would not have bought one.
    Technology moves on, fact. I you don't feel Apple are playing fair then just avoid their products, that'll learn 'em.
    By the way, if you want Apple to hear your thoughts go here - [Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html]
    They do not officially monitor this board.

  • 1st generation ipod touch will not turn on after being charged

  • Ios 3.1.1 will not download for the 1st generation ipod touch

    Why won't ios 3.1.1 download for the 1st generation ipod touch?  It will start and then a second later stop.

    Does it happen with the apps that came with the iPod?
    Does it happen with all apps you have downloaded/installed?
    Have you ried deleting the apps and redownload/install the apps?  You will not be charged again if you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.
    Next would be to restore from backup
    Last would be to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
