Apple TV (1st Gen) not being recognized in iTunes 10.5

I recently updated iTunes to 10.5 and my Apple TV (1st Gen) will not longer show up in iTunes; thus I am not able to syn or stream any content from my iTunes library. I am not even able to reconnect/pair my Apple TV with my iTunes.
I have also been having trouble with my Apple TV dropping its wireless connection and not being to reconnect again.
Any suggestions?

ATV 1 is likely to be very low on the totem pole of Apple's concerns at the moment
(ESPECIALLY if no one issues a formal complaint).
So if you want to see a patch anytime soon I'd advise all who are having this problem to submit a bug report at:
http://www.apple.com/feedback
I've already submitted a report under both iTunes and AppleTV (since it's the iTunes developers that need to fix this)

Apple TV (1st Gen) not fully syncing with iTunes 10.4

Today i discovered that after syncing my Apple TV with iTunes 10.4 after a few weeks nearly all music and movie files have vanished from ATV.
ATV has the actual firmware and was working fine till last iTunes update.
Syncing shows up about 60 music files ... instead of >10K
I have tried to delete the computer from ATV which erased all files and re-connected ATV with the controlling computer, no change.
All other devices like iPad and iPhone are still synced with all files.
Internet Access from ATV works fine, playback of all synced files works fine .... but ATV simply does not sync all files.
Any ideas ?

Yep. I am sure
I have also marked all files, rebooted Mac and ATV, nothing.

Apple TV (1st Gen) not seen by iTunes

Hi there, my Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in itunes 10.
I have looked at as many of the forums as I can and I have followed all the advice to reset Apple TV, router and PC. No joy. I have then restored Apple TV, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, checked router ports etc. but still no joy.
The Apple TV is connected to my network just fine (I can download movie trailers etc.), my PC is connected to the network just fine (itunes store opens and I can shop). However, the Apple TV does not appear in the devices list on the LHS of the itunes window, there is no Apple TV tab in preferences and I cannot locate my library (not listed) on the Apple TV.
Basically I have tried everything I can find to try to solve this, but no joy. Please can someone help me as this is driving me crazy?
(I have also posted this in the Apple TV forum as I was not sure if it is an iTunes or Apple TV issue)

Ok, so I figured out that the software on the ipad must not be compatible with the old airtunes...
So I did further research and went ahead and got the Remote HD app on my ipad 3 (kinda pricey for an app, but even cheaper than a cable after all); this only works if you have a jailbroken atv1 with the RemoteHD plugin installed.
And instantly, shazam, the box and triangle shows up on the ipad and I can airplay to the atv1. I only was really wanting to play music over the house system via the apple tv; but the video mirroring actually works as well. It's not that great, however. All of these mods are really pushing the envelope on the poor old atv, which has smoke pouring off of it... i'm kidding.
The whole Firecore (atvflash) setup process was actually kind of a pain in the neck, but now that it's all set up everything works. Mostly. Bottom line I'm playing music from the ipad on the house system and walking around... look ma, no cables!

HT1369 Ipod touch not being recognized by itunes (but is registering as an external drive by the computer itself) have updated and reinstalled itunes, stopped/started apple mobile device and removed and mobile programs associated with my non apple cellpho

Ipod touch not being recognized by itunes (but is registering as an external drive by the computer itself) have updated and reinstalled itunes, stopped/started apple mobile device and removed any mobile programs associated with my non apple cellphone. This seems to have started happening after the last Itunes update I did as I was able to put music on my ipod touch a month or so ago. Is there some way to go back to an older version of itunes? I really have no idea what else to do since I followed every step on the trouble shooting page for windows 8.

I had this problem too and my roommate solved it!
Go to 'Settings'
'Music'
Scroll to the bottom and enter your password to log onto your home sharing
Then connect to iTunes and sync!

TS3716 ipod nano is not being recognized by iTunes.

My ipod nano 2nd generation (and working perfectly) is not being recognized by iTunes.
Any suggestions?

Does the iPod work OK?
Have you tied resetting the iPod? Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Next would be to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore via iTunes. If iTunes does not see the iPod then the iPod is not usable. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

If you've reset AppleTv, have you actually set up the sync/share computer again?
If not go to Settings>Computers and add a new library - a 5 digit code will appear for you to enter in itunes.
The top computer entry in the list syncs and streams, the others only stream. If you plan to purchase anything make sure you have an entry for sync/stream as streaming only libraries may not transfer AppletV purchases.

IPhone not being recognized by iTunes

My iPhone is not being recognized by iTunes. I have iPhone original version with the latest software OS update. The phone was reset because of unrelated problems, and I need to connect to iTunes for it be operational! iTunes 9.1 on my computer... my iPad syncs with no problem but the iPhone is not even showing up as a device on the iMac or MacBook!
I have followed the steps on the Apple Support website, but the problem persists. What to do next?
thanks

Your computer detail provided indicates you have a Mac and the link you provided is for Windows - at least for the software conflicts portion the link went directly to, although some of the troubleshooting steps are similar.
Here is the link for OS X.

Hi, jodie_0182.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

I get this message when trying to sync my IPOD Touch 16GB after upgrading to 7.5. I have tried to remove 7.5 and reinstall 7.4 and still the same problem. I have it connected to the USB on my motherboard. I have even changed the USB connection around. I have tried everything I can think of and all of the instructions I can find on this site. HELP!!

Hey dmar713,
The iPod touch requires USB 2.0, check the speed of the USB port.

If the USB port is not causing the issue, it may be an application conflict.

Take it in for repair/replace to your local Apple retailer.

My iPad is not being recognized by iTunes...

My iPad is not being recognized by iTunes. I am trying to sync with my desktop so that I can reset everything since a train wreck associated with provider change has occured. I've tried my iPod as well, and it isn't being recognized either.
Does anyone have any suggestions for this type of situation. I thought it might be my power cord (so I reordered a new one), but the iPod uses a different one so don't think that is the issue now.
Many thanks in advance for all who respond to this scream of frustration.
