Audiobook files not recognised by ipod

Hi, When I go firstly into the Audiobook directory on my Photo iPod, I can access the audiobooks I have there. However if I go into the Podcasts directory first and play a podcast, and then go into the Audiobook directory, there are no audiobooks in the directory. To get the Audiobook directory back I have to reconnect the ipod to iTunes on my ibook. I am running OSX 10.4.9 and iTunes 7.1.1. I have a Photo iPod. Can anyone help me with problem? I have tried reseting and restoring the iPod without any success.

I have a similar problem. I've created movies in Final Cut Pro X. They are now QuickTime movies. But iDVD won't recognize these files. So I either need a suggestion on how to create DVD's within FCPX or Compressor or how to convert to use iDVD or a suggestion on some other DVD creation/burning program that will work.

Itunes is not recognising my ipod!! says i need to install 64 bit version, it is 64 bit version though!!

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I recently connected my new ipad to my itunes, but now itunes will not recognise my ipod classic, and 50gig of music has gone. ipad connects ok but no longer ipod which has been there for two years! help!!!

I recently connected my new ipad to my itunes, but now itunes will not recognise my ipod classic, and 50gig of music has gone. ipad connects ok but no longer ipod which has been there for two years! help!!!

What happens when the iPod is plugged in? anything? any errors?
Why is 50GB of music gone? All music should exist on the computer. Only a fool would rely on a single device which could easily be lost or stolen to store their content on.

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

Itunes not recognising my ipod and windows asks me to format

Itunes is not recognising my Ipod when I connect to my PC. I've been using it for 8 years so this is out of the blue. I get this flashing up:
"Microsoft Windows
You need to format the disc in Drive N before you can use it. Do you want to format it?"
Bottom right of my screen
Safely remove hardware and eject media gives me the option to "Eject Apple iPod USB device"
I did that and now find my iPod has wiped all my stored items and I've had to reset date etc. Is this a Windows or an Apple problem?

I'm afraid I got so frustrated with the PC crashing that I threw in the towel and ordered an iPod touch this morning after tentatively syncing my mini iPad this first, with no problems, just in case it was the PC. Iv'e changed it to wifi syncing now as a further precaution.
If I can get the Classic to work again I can at least try to sell it as a functioning model.

Hi Moclam12,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPod classic is formatted for Windows, and you want to sync it with your Mac, try to force the iPod into Disk Mode and then restore it using your Mac.

Use iTunes. It is designed to sync a Nano and other Apple devices.

Itunes does not recognise the ipod after update to itunes 8.2.0.23

Hi, Now find, after putting new songs in my play list, that when I plug in ipod to update songs on ipod itunes does not recognise the ipod.
The version of iTunes I updated to was 8.2.0.23 - everything worked fine until then. I see there is a newer version 8.2.1 now available - do you think by installing this the "unable to recognise" problem would be fixed???
Thanks for your thoughts!

I have a similar problem with the iPhone. Tried everything you can think of and then some. There is apparently some devastating bug 7.6 introduced into normal USB device recognition. I've been able to force the phone into recovery mode; the boot recovery USB driver does still work. Restoring the phone every time I need to sync is both scary and time-consuming.

HT1430 i have a red X in a circle which sometimes changes to the apple logo but no matter what instructions i try nothing else happens. My computer nor i tunes does not recognise the ipod.

I have a red X in a circle which sometimes changes to the apple logo but nothing else happens after i try every suggestion; Windows nor itunes does not recognise the ipod; what do you suggest?

You could possibly try a restore from itunes or from the ipod itself, otherwise go get it looked at/replaced, that sounds like a software issue.

I have an iPod touch 4th generation and have tried to connect it to my Sony BDV-E970W blu-ray player. The player does not recognise the iPod. What can I do to fix this?

I have an iPod Touch 4th gen player and cannot connect to a Sony blu-ray BDV-E970W player. Sony system does not recognise the iPod. Do I need to link the Sony to the net and upgrade the software on the dvd player?

As the other replier said, contact Sony. It may not be compatible with the iPod.

Since installing XP Service Pack 3, iTunes dose not recognise my iPod

Since installing XP Service Pack 3, iTunes dose not recognise my iPod.
Windows does but Itunes doesn't.
The Windows dialogue box syas "iPodService Module has encountered a problem and needs to close"
I have gone through the 5 Rs and the troubleshooters and the problem persists.
Any ideas?

Have a look in your Device manager. (Right-click "My Computer", select "Manage" and click "Device Manager".)
Is Device Manager (in the right hand pane of the Window) completely blank?
If so, see the following Microsoft document for troubleshooting advice:
Device Manager and Network Connections may be blank after you install Windows XP Service Pack 3
(When you get your Device Manager displaying correctly again, iTunes should stop giving you the "iPod Service Module" crash.)

Downloaded update on ipod on wifi 0.6 could not sync with computer as it did not recognise my ipod on itunes but could not download 0.6 off itunes it doesnt seem to be on itunes suggested web page, please help

downloaded itunes 0.6 on my ipod over wifi, however when connected to my computer it would not recognise my ipod and suggested i went to www.itunes .com/uk but could not find or download 6, so now cannot sync my ipod with itunes on my computer, please help cheers.

By wiping both iPhone and iPod and trying syncing with another computer I've come to the conclusion that something with MobileMe sync is the problem.
I can set up both to work fine with my Mac Pro and a new Mac Book Pro as long as I don't set up MobileMe syncing. As soon as I sync with MobileMe I start having problems, particularly with Calendar.
MobileMe seems to work fine computer to computer, until the iPhone/iPod get involved, then the MobileMe copy gets messed up. Version on computer seems to stay ok.
Not sure where to go from here... other than call Apple or go to the Apple Store.

Macs and aiff files not recognised by older hi fi.?

I have burnt audio cds using external burner(itunes 8).They are on the cd as it plays in the mac but will not play on our cd player.Iread something online about macs and aiff files not recognised by older hi fi.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AudioInterchange_FileFormat
any help please

Several possible issues.
1) Did you burn the CD as an audio format CD or did you just burn AIFF files to a CD as a data CD? CD players require an audio format CD, not just AIFF files burned to a CD as AIFF files.
2) Older CD players can have problems reading burned CDs. Sometimes using a different brand CD, a longer burn time (slower burn speed) can help, but sometimes you just have to buy a newer player. CD-RW can present big problems unless it is specified as supported.
