Can't get the Ipod to connect properly

here is the problem
- I have reinstalled itunes, and the drivers, and windows
- I have tried diffrent machines, and diffent usb drives.
After reinstaling windows and installing the drivers, I restart as the program tells me. I then plug in the ipod and it says USB MASS STORAGE DEVICE. Then says Apple IPOD. After that it freezes there for about 45 minues (I get tired of waiting). During this time I can move the mouse but I can't select anything. After Removing the plug I get Device installed succesfully.
Then I restart after the reboot I plug in the Ipod. I don't get a disc drive, itunes doesn't recongize the ipod. And it tells me not to remove. I then reboot the ipod. The last time I tried it I heard a grind come out of the ipod.
I've had it since december of 06, But it was purchase late nov of 06

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Additional things to try.
    Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    On your iPad go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings and see if that enables you to connect.

  • Can't get my Ipod to connect to the Wifi?

    Never had this issue before it has always connected fine. Now all of a sudden I can't get it to connect at all. I have reset the network and went through all the steps and still nothing. Everything else connects to the wifi such as computer, kindles, phones.. Ugh this is really frustrating me. Please help.

    - Not saying what steps you went does not help us:
    Have you:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing is 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.
    - Powered off and then back on your router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    Any error messages?
    Does the iPod see the network(s)?
    Does the iPod successfully connect to other networks?

  • PLEASE HELP?  Desperate, I can't get the iPod to Restore!!

    In desperation, I want to restore my ipod, as nothing else I have tried has worked.
    I cannot get to that step. I have done everything I am supposed to, going by Apple's list, and nothing has worked.
    I have uninstalled iTunes, and reinstalled. I have gone down their list, and nothing is working, the updater won't recognize that the ipod is connected, even though it is, and is showing up in Windows.
    PLEASE HELP ME?

    Have you tried dropping your Ipod? I read it on these forums and decided to try it myself. I dropped it 3 times from waist height onto a carpet. It has worked fine since.

  • How can I get my ipod touch to properly sync all my songs, when it keeps stalling in different stages and hours later doesn't sync all the songs I checked?

    I can't seem to get all my songs and playlists that are checked to sync to my ipod touch. The ipod has been troublesome since the first round of updates. It was originally set on "itunes match", but it was dropping songs for some reason and since the wifi only operates when I'm in a place where wifi is available, I can't download the songs again while I'm on the road. I turned off itunes match and plugged it in to my computer to sync it that way, and it keeps stalling in different stages of the sync process. After hours and hours of being stuck, it "completes" without syncing any of my playlists that I checked.

    Try a low level reformat of the iPod's hard drive to possibly try and repair some of its damage. Use the instructions in this article to walk you through the process.

  • Can not get the ipod to set up

    My ipod will not come up for set up.  Just bought it 2 days ago and already very dissapointed in it.  Can not get it to sync.  Thank you

    Did you download and install the latest version of iTunes from here?
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Are you using the USB cable that came with the shuffle? 
    If you are using a USB hub as connection point, try connecting it directly to a USB port on computer.  If there are other USB devices connected at the same time, you may want to try it with only the shuffle connected (except for standard keyboard and mouse).

  • Can't get the Express to connect to the internet.

    So for whatever reason, my express, which was working fine for a long time, jsut stopped working today. I had to do a hard restart (pushing the restart button then plugging the unit in till the light flashed green) and I ran Airport Utility to reset the settings. I've tried both ethernet and PPPoe with the password and account name, but to no avail. I have DSL and a DSL modem which connects to the the Airport Express. Also, after resetting the settings in Airport Utility and getting the message that all is well, the light on the Express still flashes yellow. What does that mean? I know it should be green, shouldn't it? FYI I have restarted the computer and the modem many times and tried every combo I can think of. Any one got any bright ideas?

    How do I make sure that the computer isn't trying to connect with a PPPoE?
    On your computer that has the PPPoE connection on board,
    Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
    Open Network
    Look for a connection on the left associated with PPPoE. If it's present, make sure that the light is yellow and the status is "Not Connected".
    It would be better if you deleted the connection by highlighting the connection and clicking the - (minus) button at the bottom of the connection list. You can always set up a new PPPoE connection in the future if you need to connect the modem directly to the computer.
    Do the same for any other computers that may have the PPPoE connection setup software installed. You only want the PPPoE credentials on the AirPort Express.
    If you don't see the PPPoE connection in Network, then another application has probably been installed on your computer with this information. Look under Applications to see if you can find a listing with the name of your service, etc.

    I am having the same problem. I have both a laptop, which I used first for the ipod, and a desktop which I have loaded most of my music collection into. My ipod is recognised by itunes on my laptop but is not recognised by itunes on my desktop. I have gone through all the troubleshooting tips aside from 'restore the ipod' as I don't want to lose the music on my ipod. My ipod is recognised on 'my computer' on both my desktop and laptop. Frustration set in long ago!!! Any help for this problem would be greatly appreciated!
