  • I cant  sync my ipod with my pc

    I cant  sync my ipod with my pc. i tried connecting it to several computers using several cables but though it does charge, it cant seem to be synced. itunes does not recognize that a device has been connected, so i cant sync music, photos or anything else.
    my device is ipod touch 4. version is 4.2.1
    what can I do?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Inspect the dock connector for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

  • I connected my iPod to my iMac but it said my iPod could not be read

    I connected my iPod classic to my iMac but it showed that my iPod could not be read. I would like to ask why did this happened and what can I do about it? So far my iPod has been working fine until I plugged it into my iMac. There are about 5000 songs in there with about 70 GB used.
    Thank you.

    May I ask why you would want to connect your iPod to "other people's computers"?

  • Everytime I try to connect my iPod to my iMac it would connect then disconnect and etc. Any help?

    I have an iPod 5th generation. Both my iPod and iMac are up to date on everything. The wire is fine and also are the usb ports. Everytime I plug my iPod in the iMac it wouldn't be able to connect to iTunes and it would keep on connect and disconnecting. Anyone who experienced this got through the problem and tell me the solution?

    I've recently had to get my computer reimaged, and since I have gotten it back I have not been able to authorize my iPod to it.
    I really dont want to loose all of the files on my iPod, or all of the playlists.
    I have re-authorized my apple ID to the computer, I've searched help forums, and I've tried as hard as possible. I can't find a solution at this very moment.

  • Cant connect my n81 with comp via the cable.

    plz help me out....
    i can connect my n81 8gb via bluetooth....bt cant connect it via cable.....
    hence cant update the software....

    You'll provable one of those who try to connect first by pcsuite tru  blue tooth, then try the cable connection, afterwards.. Usually you''ll get the error message " can't load the main phone device... of some sort." This what you'll do. Uninstall the pcsuite, Nokia connectivity & all that pertain to Nokia by add & remove program of windows xp/vista. Then & run the latest version of pcsuite cleaner. Reboot, then un install the drivers for bluetooth if it is dongle, or disable it temporarily.     Then install the latest version of pcsuite that is for your phone, don't connect the cable untill told to do so.( Sorry my editor is acting up) select cable when prompted at wait, it will take a little bit to load all the drivers.                                  Good luck, give us feedback!

  • While restoring my iPod touch 4G (iOS 6.1.2), after the "extracting software" step, iTunes says that it cant connect to iPod server. Now my iPod is in recovery mode and I can't do anything. Please Help.

    I have Windows 7 installed with the LATEST iTunes software.
    I get this message while restoring and now my iPod is in restore mode. When I try to restore it fails after this message pops up. Please tell me a fix to it.
    1) I've checked my internet connection. All the sites work perfectly.
