Can't find touch via Finder

When I plug my ipod touch in I can see it in iTunes and I am able to sync fine. But I want to now get photos and videos of the Touch and put them on my computer. But I can't find the Touch via my finder window. Why doesn't it pop up as a device to explore? Any help here?

  • I don't remember my passcode and can't restore it via find my phone or through iTunes.

    I just recently found my iPad that I haven't used in about a year after getting a Mac. I don't remember the passcode that I had on it so I can't get into it. I went onto iCloud.com and tried to erase everything via find my phone so that I could get into it, but it won't work until the iPad is connected to the internet. Wifi is on, but the iPad isn't connecting. I tried hooking it up to my computer and restoring it to factory settings that way, but it said that I have to turn off find my phone first. So I went back to the iCloud website and removed the iPad from my apple ID thinking this would turn off any find my phone things connected to my iPad. Apparently I was wrong. So now I am locked out from trying whatever pass codes come to mind because I have put the wrong one in too many times, the data won't erase because it's not connected to the internet, and I can't restore it because it is waiting to connect to the internet to erase the data. On top of all that, since it is an older iPad, I can't chat with apple support without paying $29.00. So is there anything else I can try to get this unlocked or do I just have a $300 paperweight?

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth... Help!!!

    I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth, tried shutting off wifi on both and reseting. iPod 2 days old, 4 th gen white, iPad 2 = 2 months old

    This is happening to many people.
    For me, it's the Key Note Remote app that won't connect with my iPad2 from my iPhone4 after update to iOS5.
    Apparently this does not affect the new iPhone 4S.
    But that's not a solution unless you are planning on upgrading.
    I'm still waiting for a response from Apple but I'd advise you to go to whichever app isn't connecting with Bluetooth and hit the "REPORT A PROBLEM" button in iTunes app page for said app.
    This will go directly to the devs and should ellicite a faster response.
    Hope this gets fixed soon.
    Warm regards.

  • Hi, I lost my iPhone 4S and disabled it via find my iPhone app, it didn't have a sim in and was used like an iPod touch, I have since recovered the phone and it displays disabled, any ideas how I can re-activate the phone

    Hi all, im from dubai. someone stolen my iphone5. i was trying to erase my data via find my iphone. in the end there was a notification that remove. i have click remove. then it never shows my device in find my iphone. how can i see my device in my pc...?

    Here's an interesting bit: iTunes will let me restore my iPod touch from backup: it's still running iOS 4.3.3. I figured as much... there's backups showing in the Preferences -> Devices list for both devices (and even my old, long gone iPod touch 2G), but my iPhone (on iOS5) isn't giving me any such option. I remember I had to downgrade before to get the backup restored (something went haywire in the setup assistant, and I couldn't restore a backup from iTunes there)... If it was possible to go to iOS 5.0 rather than 5.0.1 I would just do the same thing again, but iOS 5.0.1 isn't an option. I attached a screenshot. Hopefully Apple can get this nonsense sorted out; I think iOS 5 might be the root of this, somehow.

    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

    Sort of if you can get hold of the iPod before it is erased, turn wifi off, then backup the iPod, turn wifi on and let it erase. Then restore from backup.

  • Can't connect via Finder but works with everything else

    The Time Capsule is working fine with Time Machine and Airport.  However when I try to connect via Finder, it just says 'Connecting...' and never changes.  When I hit 'Connect As...', nothing happens.  I have rebooted the TC and deleted all passwords from the keychain but that didnt help.  Latest OSX updates and firmware update installed.

    I powered down and was relieved to hear the fan jolt and the drive spin so that looks good.
    Wireless is currently the only method I've been using to connect to the TC with my macbook because as of right now I dont have a USB->ethernet adapter but I will pick one up later today to see if that changes anything.  The cable modem is connected via ethernet though and that seems to be working fine.
    The LED is solid green when the modem is plugged in and flashing orange when it is not.
    Here is the log after a power cycle, at first I did not have the cable modem plugged in and attempted to access via Finder with no luck. Then shortly after, I plugged in the cable modem and tried Finder again. Its interesting that attempting to access the drive via Finder does not create any activity in the log. 
    I will try to cool down overnight and hope I can get at the data.  At this point, my main goal is to retrieve the files.  And then get a new local backup solution asap.  I am currently doing a full online backup to Crashplan but with 500GBs, its going to be weeks before it finishes uploading.

    I deleted the photos via Finder and empty trash long time ago. The thing is, that I want to recover one event or album.  The event appears in the iphoto but when open, it shows "!". Is it possible to recover the photos?

    No.  When you removed the photos via the finder you damage the library.  Photos should always be removed from the library using iPhoto, never with the Finder.
    If you have a Time Machine backup of the library from before you deleted the photos you can restore the library to the Desktop and export that album from it to import into your current library.
    It's been too long to be able to try one of the file recovery applications.  You sure to have overwritten those files with new files since them.

  • When I try to copy files from my computer (just pics) to my iPhone's media folder via Finder under 10.7, I get this error...

    I'm using MacFuse to connect via Finder. It worked before, even on 10.7. But since I cannected th eiPhone to my Windows 7 dual boot partition, now it won't work! Maybe it was just a coincidence, not sure. Just returns this error:
    "The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8003)."
    I get this one when I try to copy files OFF of the iPhone:
    "The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8072)."
    Sounds like a permissions error to me. So I fixed permissions on my Mac with disc utility, but same problem. Then chmod with terminal the media folder. Did nothing. So I can't change permissions, and they're not broken. What could've happened? I'm like, locked out of my device!

  • Can't open Photos in Finder

    I cannot open my photos in finder...
    because I can't open them in finder, I can't open them with any other program.
    Any ideas as to why, or how I can fix this?
    Thank you!

    With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    There is no version of iPhoto were it was recommended that you access the files via the Finder. On the contrary, each version has recommended that users do not access the iPhoto Library Folder. There are no user serviceable parts there.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Any of these are a:faster and b: safer than rooting through the Finder.
    Remember: It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss
