5th generation IPOD won't show PHOTOS tab

Hi. I hope someone can help. I can't get the Photo tab to display when I connect my video IPOD. I know it works because I am able to add my photos using automatic sync. I've tried on 2 different pc's to no avail. I have also removed and reinstalled Itunes and restored my IPOD. I have searched forums for several days and can't find an answer.
Has anyone heard of this problem?
Thanks for your time.

okay. while the ipod is plugged in and showing up in the itunes sourcelist, and the ipod is selected, you should be seeing a "Summary" tab in your main library window. the photos tab is about the fourth or fifth tab in that display.
here's a link to a screenshot of where i see attractive beast's Photos tab showing up. (since you've got a 5th gen ipod you should also be seeing a "Videos" tab in there.)

  • 5th Gen Ipod does not show photo tab under preferences

    I am trying to get pics onto my Ipod. The ipod tutorials suggest going to a photo tab which I do not have. I can not update the Ipod because Itunes 7 says that Ipod is already up to date? Is anyone having this problems?

    can you check something for me? what icon is showing up in the itunes sourcelist? is it a wee picture of your 5th G, or does it look quite different?
    what version of the firmware is being cited in the "summary" tab you see when you select the ipod in the sourcelist? is that the same version that you see in the "About" screen on your ipod?
    Where's the iPod About screen, and what's in it?

  • HT1338 my 5th generation ipod won't sync anymore to my PowerMac G4.  It worked fine, but when I installed a new hard drive it won't work anymore.

    my 5th generation ipod won't sync anymore to my PowerMac G4.  It worked fine, but when I installed a new hard drive it won't work anymore.  I've re-installed iTunes, the latest version for Tiger, I've reset and restored my iPod.  The ipod shows up fine in the source banner and I can transfer files to it, however when I unplug the iPod the files are not there.

    Maybe try to repair the iPod's HD using Disk Utility located in the Applications -> Utilities folder.  If that doesn't help, try a low level reformat of the drive using the same application.  Make sure you choose Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) as the file system format.

  • 5th Generation iPod won't reset

    Hi guys,
    I'd really appreciate it if you could help me out. I just bought a new iPod 5th Generation (30gb with video). For some reason, it froze and won't reset. I've tried to do what apple.com says (hold menu and play buttons), but it doesn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks a lot

    Never mind. I was pressing the wrong buttons. Oh well, live and learn, right? Lol. Alright, so I'm good for now.
    Thanks

  • 5th Generation iPod won't sync with iMac iTunes 9

    PLEASE help.  5th generation 8GB iPod will not sync with iTunes 9 on my iMac OSx 10.4.11.  Hubby rebooted system and now I have zero songs on my iPod. I have restored iPod to factory settings and still zero songs.  Itunes says sync complete everything looks good but iPod still says zero songs.  Tried using new user account on iMac and going into iPod disk mode...no success.  Also tried restoring playlist from PC running windows 7 still nothing.   Please help...must have my tunes back asap...THANK YOU anyone who can help.

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
    Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive and iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

  • 5th Generation iPod won't sync video, says "format not supported"

    My 5th gen iPod has stopped syncing video that formerly was happily synced, including a TV show I bought in iTunes. Only one video, a movie I converted in Handbrake, still syncs.
    Anybody got any ideas?

  • 5th gen iPod won't show iTunes U

    using an iTune 10 (latest update), and synching with the 5th gen iPod. The synch goes well and when connected to the iTunes i can see the iTunes U on the list but when I disconnect and I can't find iTunes U on the iPod lists and menus... I read in a related post (about 5th gen iPod nano) a reply asking if the guy had set the files to have the 'iTunes U' mediatype. What does it mean and how do I do that?

    Have you set the files to have the 'iTunes U' mediatype?

  • 5th generation ipod does not show up on itunes

    I have tried reinstalling itunes and the ipod hardware many times but there is still the same problem. The ipod showed up once before but since that time itunes has not recognized the ipod as being connected to the computer. Is there something wrong with my usb port??

    I have bumped into this problem as well, check the following things:
    - Do you have a USB 2.0?
    - Is there any device conflicting with the drive which is designed to iPod? For instance, I had my iPod ben put under C:\. Apparently iTunes thought that was my harddisk. In Control Panel> Computer Management you can change the name of your drivers. Call iPod M:\ or something.
    Doesn't this work? Apple has a Troubleshooter on its website called "iPod recognised in Windows, not recognised in iTunes" or something like that (easy to find). Good luck!

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings

  • How can i get my photos and videos back after backing up from my 2nd generation ipod into my 5th generation ipod? I really need those photos but i dont know how.

    I downloaded the new itunes. So, i plugged in my 5th generation ipod and when i plugged it in, it asked me if i want to set it as new ipod or back up from the 2nd generation ipod touch that i plugged in before, i accidently clicked on the back up from before so it when its done, it looked like my 2nd gen. ipod and i dont like it. All my photos and videos from 5th gen. Ipod were all gone and there are some pictures that i really need as soon as possible. Is there a way i can i can get those photos and videos back? I really need them. :(

    Did you fail to import them to your computer?
    If so, then they are gone.

  • 5th generation Ipod Touch won't charge past 20%?

    I bought my 32 gb 5th generation Ipod Touch not more than 2 weeks ago at my local Walmart. Everything was working perfectly until today. All day, my ipod would charge until 20%.. run on this charge for approximately 10 minutes, and then die again. It does not continue charging after the 20% mark and I'm not quite sure how to verify that it does. I've tried using the charger with different usb ports/computers but still no luck. My ipod has been going through some pretty cold conditions temperature-wise the last few days.. does that have any affecton the battery maybe? Ahh, at this point I'm just frustrated.. hopefully someone knows how to fix this!

    - See:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable
    - Try another charging source
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.
