Cannot get iPod touch going with Vista Ultimate

iTunes gives me a message that the iPhone only works with 32 bit versions of XP or Vista. I have Vista Ultimate on my laptop, which is 32 bit.
Does anyone have any suggestions. I cannot get this thing going....

Well what does the system panel say under the control panel? Should tell you on label "System Type"
64-Bit is not supported. Not sure why since iTunes knows the iPod is there. iTunes thinks its a iPhone instead though.

  • IPod Touch connection with Vista

    My iPod touch is not recognized by Windows Vista. On the same computer the iPod video works well. I have the newest version of iTunes 4.7, which should have the driver included, but Vista keeps looking for the driver.
    Any suggestions?

    Just wanted to add one more solution to using iTouch with 32 bit version of Windows Vista as I spent the last 72 hours trying to get my daughter's iTouch to work with a new Dell Inspiron (w/ Vista Home). I tried disabling/uninstalling and reinstalling from the Device Manager as noted in previous posts in this thread. Was almost ready to throw in the towel when I did one last search for alternate solutions and found the following instructions to reinstall the drivers, but to instead of having the system look to the c:\Windows\inf or c:\windows\system 32 folders for the drivers, the path is changed to c:\program files\common files\Apple\Apple Mobile Support\Drivers, which is apparently where Vista installs the drivers to. Once I changed the path the driver properly reflected the iTouch as a USB device, and not a digital camera. Hope this helps anyone else who is having the same issue.
    Try these steps:
    1. Log in using an ADMINISTRATIVE account
    2. Verify you have the following files usbaapl.cat, usbaapl.inf & usbaapl.sys in the following directory "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers"
    3. Single left click on START
    4. Single left click on RUN
    5. Type in " devmgmt.msc " then hit Enter (Don't type in the quotes)
    6. Look for Imaging in the Device Manager window, and click on plus sign (In Vista you may not see the "Imaging" option. Look under "Portable Devices" as an alternative)
    7. Now you should see " Apple iPod " as a device underneath Imaging (or Portable Devices)
    8. Right click on " Apple iPod " then single left click on Properties
    9. Single left click on the " Driver " tab
    10. Single left click on " Update driver "
    11. Select " Install from a list or specific location "
    12. Single left click on " Include this location in the search "
    13. Paste " C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers " (Don't type in the quotes) into the box below " Include this location in the
    search "
    14. Single left click next and keep clicking through until " Apple iPod USB Driver " is detected.
    15. Start up iTunes, and see if you iPod is detected again.
    For anyone trying to copy over their music from the iTouch to a new PC running Vista, I used TouchCopy (http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/). Once I got the iTouch to be seen by iTunes you close iTunes, install TouchCopy and then start the program, it will then look for your iTouch and once you connect it it's a snap to copy the music to your iTunes library.
    Hope this helps anyone with sames Vista/iTouch issues. Good Luck!

  • Cannot get iPod to sync with iTunes using Windows 8 Laptop!

    I have been trying to get my iPod classic to sync up with iTunes using my Windows 8 Laptop all night!  I tried restoring the iPod, I tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, disconnecting my iPod to restart my laptop then plugging back in.  I also ran iTunes Diagnostics and it says my iPod isn't connected yet it shows on the sidebar.  I also have automatic sync set up.  When I hit sync, it initializes then stops.  What am I doing wrong?  Is there some trick I am missing.  Also, my iPod won't charge unless it is syncing.  What's up with that?
    Any help or advice would really be appreciated! 
    Thank you in advance.

    For the charging issue, some newer computers with USB 3.0 ports (especially laptops) seem to have a "feature" that saves energy by turning off full power to the port when the connected storage device is no longer mounted by the system.  An iPod is a storage device.  When iTunes syncs the iPod, iTunes mounts the iPod's dlsk.  So it gets full power on the port, and the battery charges.  When iTunes is done syncing, iTunes automatically unmounts the iPod's disk.  The system shuts off full power to the port, and the battery no longer charges.
    To work around this problem, go to the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes.  There is a setting their for Enable disk use.  Check that box and Apply.  This setting keeps the iPod's disk mounted continuously, when the iPod is connected.  Therefore, the port should continue to receive full power, and the battery charges.  That's fine for now, but later on, you can go into the computer's Control Panel preferences to see if there is a setting that disables this "energy saver" feature, and keeps the USB ports at full power all the time, whether the storage device is mounted or not.  If that is possible, you can turn OFF Enable disk use for the iPod.
    NOTE:  WIth disk use enabled, you need to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it safely from USB.  The Eject button is next to the iPod's name in iTunes (to the right).
    Now, for your main question about setting up automatic syncing...  First, if the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  When connected, the iPod appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.
    Select the iPod in the sidebar.  To the right, its Summary screen is shown.  Toward the top, there is a bar of buttons starting with Summary.  Click on Music there, next to Summary.  This Music screen is where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  This setting enables automatic syncing.  If you want your entire iTunes music library on your iPod (and it fits), choose the option to sync Entire music library.  Then click Apply.  Going forward, any change you make to your iTunes music library syncs to the iPod automatically (at the next opportunity).

  • Cannot charge ipod touch (3G) with wall charger, only using MAC.

    I've had my Ipod Touch for over a year. Suddenly yesterday the device will not charge with either a wall (a/c) charger or a car charger. I have two wall chargers and neither one works. It will only charge when plugged into a usb port on my MAC computers. I took it into a Genious Bar today, a both of the employees there replicated my problem, but had no clue why it is doing this. They also verified that both of my wall chargers function properly. Any ideas?

    Ah!  I am having the same problem!  All charging methods were working fine, and all of a sudden only the computer charger works.  I've got two cables, and both charge via computer, and neither charge via the wall or car charger.  The connection automatically starts the iPod, but charging does not occur.  Have you resolved this issue yet?  Thanks!

  • Cannot get Ipod Touch 8 GB to update to newer software

    I have a 8 GB Ipod touch. The software version is currently 2.2.1. All of my apps will no longer sync to my Ipod because it says they require the Iphone 3.0 software update. I have tried to update my software several times, but it says I have the current version. What can I do?

    Hello salchichaz,

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.
