Devices not shown on sidebar of iMac ie iPod ?

Hi
I am going crazy since the update of the software IOS6 onto my ipod. Now my imac do not shaow the device of the ipod [or even the iphone] on the sidebar. So I can't even drag songs from Imac to my ipod!
Can anyone help please. The old software worked perfectly. Why always change and make things muddled!

I believe you are talking about iTunes side bar.
Try to connect it using USB cable and check will iTunes can see your device(s).
Reboot your device. And check it over Wifi.

Sat P105-S2036 WinVista SD memory card device not shown in WIndows Explorer

The label on the botton of the laptop says the Model Number is PSPAOU-1W2036. I have had it for about 2 years. It has a single slot SD memory card only reader in the front. During this time till 2 days ago, it ran factory installed Windows XP MCE just fine. This SD reader shows up in Device Manager as well as in My Computer Windows Explorer window as a drive with letter D since I renamed the DVD drive to letter R. During the last two days, I successfully upgraded the operating system to Windows Vista Ultimate. Everything works fine except that the SD memory card reader no longer shows in neither Device Manager, nor Windows Explorer. But the Device Manager does show a working SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller, and a nonworking Mass Storage Controller (missing driver) under Other devices (See Attachment 1). What needs to be done to make the SD memory card reader a working device in Windows Vista? Thank to answers in advance.
Solved!

Ipod shuffle 4th generation device not shown on itunes, not charging. Seeing red light when connecting to USB charger for a few seconds, then nothing. How to fix this?

My ipod shuffle 4th generation was working fine for a few months. My son then bit the USB charger. I bought a new USB charger, but the shuffle is not charging and not showing up under the devices in itunes. It also doesn't appear in my windows under my computer. Just to note. I also have a new ipod touch. I am able to charge that fine on the same computer using the USB charger. The device (Ipod touch) does show up in windows and in itunes. The shuffle doesn't show in either place.
I have tried to use the apple support page. I went through each step. I made all of my USB drives not shut down, I had my computer on all night to try and charge the shuffle. All I see is a red light that appears on the shuffle for a few seconds when I first connect the USB charger to the computer. Then, nothing. Since this was working a bit ago, I don't think that I have a defective shuffle. The USB charger is brand new, I just picked it up yesterday from the apple store. I have the short one, and the longer cable as well.
Any help that you might be able to give to me would be much appreciated. My daughter is missing listening to her music. Thanks!

Instead of "charger," you should call it the "USB cable" to avoid confusion. When started reading your post, I was thinking, how can your son break a USB power adapter (the "charger" that plugs into a wall socket) by biting it...
Since you got the product with the two USB cables at the Apple Store, you have the right replacement (some third-party replacements are for the 2nd gen shuffle and do not work with the 4th gen shuffle). Make sure you are completely inserting the plug into the headphones jack. The fit may be tighter than expected, since the connectors are new.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3572
If you tried both of those cables, it would be unlikely that you got two faulty cables in one package. If a new USB device has been added to the computer between the time it worked with the old cable and now, there could be a problem on the USB bus (such as not enough power or a device conflict).
As a test, you should shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices (including any hub), except for standard keyboard and mouse (if used). Do this to reset the shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1655
Start up computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle by itself to a direct USB port on the computer.

Trying to sync for the first time to my ipad. device not shown on leftside. i want to sync photos using iphoto.

trying to sync photos from macbook pro to ipad, first time. What do i do if no device is shown even though it's plugged in, etc?

Thanks, Jim. I finally got it all to work after I closed iTunes on both machines, unplugged the iPad, and started from scratch. To anyone else having this problem, if you hit the wrong thing for "device", it disappears totally.

Enrolling iOS devices "not shown in Configuration Manager console"

After successfully enrolled my Windows RT I want to enroll my iOS devices (iPad 1 & iPhone 4). First step is completing the iOS configuration (uploading APN certificate). Next step I associated my devices by installing management
profiles (https://manage.microsoft.com). All my application appears when starting the Company Portal App but my device will not appear in my Configuration Manager admin console.
When I select the Support tile in the Company App it says "Name not yet available", I'm not sure if this is a normal behavior?
Any thoughts/pointers are welcome.

USB storage devices not shown in Finder, yet function, and show in System Information?

Occurring starting about last month, this has gone from a seldom, to all the time situation. plugging in any USB memory device either directly to the computer, or with cables, will allow the files to be accessed/changed/deleted by programs, but the device with it's files will not show in finder. The device shows in System information. I have set Finder to show everything, but they no longer apear. Before failing entirely, I would sometimes have the device show for a short time, then get an "Improper removal" error, without touching the device, after a few moments. All these memory devices still function properly when used in external devices and when direcly accesed by software. Not being able to use finder to modify content is a significant problem.

Well I'm about out of ideas. Going off what you described, these devices work fine elsewhere and gradually failed on your computer.
Unless someone else can post other ideas, I only can suggest a reinstall of Lion from scratch. I would make sure I had a good backup from TM and an additional backup of your important files just in case.
Probably the easiest way would be to make a bootable USB stick or drive to work from. Procedure here: http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/08/make-a-bootable-mac-os-x-10-7-lion-installer-from -a-usb-flash-drive/
If you can accomplish that, see if you can boot from it. If so, use Disk Utility to erase the main drive and reformat it. Verify the drive is OK. Then quit Disk Utility abd procede to install Lion.
When the installation is finished, reboot and use Setup Assistant imediately to migrate your user data and applications back from the TM drive. Don't use migration assistant later.
I doubt it will help since the Comb-Update didn't fix it, but who knows.

ITunes directory on iPod nano device not showned

I have a iPod naono 4th generation. I nedd to transfer the iPod Music Library from the iPod (using as a disk enabled) to my iTunes library. But following the instructions to do it I must see the iTunes directory on thr iPod nano device. I cannot see this directory on the iPod nano disk. My operating system is Windows XP. How can I visualize the iTunes directory on the iPod nano ? The question is: how I can transfer my music library from the iPod nano 4th generation to my iTunes library ?
Roberto

Hello roby000,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
You will also have to show hidden files in order to access the music directly on your iPod. By default, Windows hides hidden files and folders (thus the name). Go to Options (in the Tools menu), and on the View tab, check “Show Hidden Files and Folders”.
For more help on manually copying music from your iPod to your computer, see this article.

Dolphin 4.8 mounting devices - not shown in Places

Hello guys!
"gvfs" is installed. Then I open "/etc/polkit-1/localauthority.conf.d/50-localauthority.conf" and set "AdminIdentities=unix-user:alex" which is my username.
Then echo
[Mount system internal media for group storage]
Identity=unix-user:alex
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks.filesystem-*
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes
to "/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/mount.pkla".
I had similar config for KDE 4.7 and dolphin showed all devices in "Places" and was able to mount them at click. Now that I have dolphin 4.8 installed - it doesn't show unmounted devices in "Places" and this config doesn't affect dolphin.
I didn't install full KDE 'cause I run IceWM. Just basic kdebase-[lib,dolphin,workspace,runtime].
How to make dolphin show and mount all the storage devices?
EDIT:
I forgot to autoload dbus. That's the reason.

Getting 'USB device not recognized' message when I never did before.

Hi there
I am constantly getting a USB device not recognized when I plug in my nano. I never got this before and as a result all it does is charge. It is not showing up in iTunes anymore so I cannot remove or dowload new songs on to my nano anymore. I have tried to go into control panel and the USB Hub device manager to deselect the power outage option but that did nothing. Please help! I seem to encounter trouble with any accessories Apple sell, whether they be earphones or USB cables.
Thanks

i'm getting the same problem too.
my ipod is nearly about 1 year old.
i use my ipod nano 2GB for music and as a flashdrive to store my uni work.
this morning accessing my files in the ipod on the computer was fine.
then later in the afternoon when i connected it into a computer i keep getting the msg 'usb device not recognised'. also itunes dont recognise my ipod either anymore.
i use Windows XP at home and uni.
i've tried my ipod on at least three different computers at uni and just tried at home.
same msg came up 'unknown device' from windows.
i've read the other posts in the forum and it mentioned about 5 R's and resetting it.
BUT the main problem is i DONT have any back up of my uni work and files and they are really really important so i CANT reset the ipod otherwise i will lose all the important things...my assignments, projects, photos...I was meant to make a back up b4 i start uni next monday but i guess now is TOO LATE.
I've noticed that the socket of the ipod dock conector to usb cable, that connects to the ipod is slightly split open.
Would this be causing the problem?
I am in Utter Despair and Desperation at the moment.
Can anyone help me PLEASE?
i would be sooooo grateful for your kind help and time.
kind regards,
a student who is on the verge of a breakdown due to this problem.

TS1369 Hello! I have an Ipod Shuffle 2nd Generation and it is not recognized by my Windows 8 based laptop. An error message of 'USB device not recognized' is shown. I have the latest ITunes version installed, and tested the dock in other pc's.

Hello!
I have a problem connecting my Ipod Shuffle 2nd generation to my Windows 8 based laptop. The computer doesn't recognize the Ipod and issues an error message saying 'USB device not recognized'. I tried uninstaling ITunes(latest version) and all other Apple software and reinstaling it back again, checked my USB hubs in the 'Device Manager' section of the Control Panel, you name it.
I could really use some help solving this.
I've turned to the troubleshooting section in Apple Support but it has nothing concerning situations in wich the device isn't even shown in the 'My Computer' folder.
Help a brother out, will you???

Found a solution in another forum http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-63733-ipod-not-detected-on-computer (a few posts down).
It was for an IPOD so you can see those details in the link.
Found how to reset a shuffle and inserted it into these instructions - did not have to follow his last steps.
- Turn off computer.
- Plug Shuffle into usb.
- Then you must reset your shuffle

- Start computer and it should install the usb driver for the ipod automatically.
- Your i pod will say do not unplug so don't. then open itunes and it will be there.
I did not have to do these thing below – did not get error message and shuffle was displayed in Itunes. / LMc
Just remember to not only eject ipod from itunes but stop usb.
Go to the program icons near the clock and right click the usb icon and "safely remove hardware" will appear and click it.
Stop it and select "apple ipod".

My iPhone 5 is not being recognized by my iMac. All my other devices, including iPod and iPad are recognized with no sync problems. I've tried every approach with online help as well as an Apple advisor by phone. Help?

You have to remove all cables before connecting to your computer with micro usb. Power is only connected when using a 3rd gen device and done after the initial connection.
