  • Mac does not recognise ipod nano.

    i am using nano for 8 months already.
    it had little problems till this day, and just resetting the nano would help to solve the recognising problems arised in the time being whatsoever.
    but this time i have an exclamation point on a folder on the screen, and it won't go away.
    when i try to connect the nano to my mac, it sees nano as a random hd (namely "apple ipod media"), but does not recognise it as "ipod nano" which we love and cherish when we automatically see it on dt and itunes if it's connected to our macs.
    a pop up comes to my screen when i connect nano to mac, i press initalize, and it opens disc utility. the program doesn't help me for restoring the ipod.
    using ipod updater as a restoring tool doesn't work neither (obviously).
    ...help?

    Try this:
    Windows 8.1, 64bit
    It appears that the 64bit install messed up the device drivers for the Apple mobilie devices connecting as USB.
    I tried many things, I may have missed a step below.  But the following is what I believe was the fix - since it worked on a 2nd PC.
    Make sure you are using an administrator account.  Any of them on your machine will do for the following
    a) Get Windows to restart the drivers:
        - disconnect your USB device and close ITunes
        - connect your USB device
        - if ITunes loads, close it.
    b) File explorer:
    Open File explorer and browse to
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
    In that folder there should be a set of files named "usbaapl64...."
    right click on the one ending in "INF"
    Select Install.  It's very quick.
    remove the USB device
    c) Restart the computer.
    When you login again, load ITunes before you attach your USB device.

  • IBook G4 does not recognise iPod Touch

    Set up and sync. I have an iBook G4 with USB 2.0 ports running OS 10.4.10 and iTunes 7.4.2(4).
    When I plug in my new iPod Touch an image of the USB cable appears on the Touch screen for a few seconds and then disappears leaving a blank screen. Nothing else happens.
    iTunes does not open automatically and even when I open it manually the Touch does not appear under the list of devices.
    I have tried everything suggested in the troubleshooting section of the pdf features guide but nothing seems to help.
    The Touch is just not recognised although I have no similar problem with my iPod Nano.
    Any ideas anyone ?

    Problem solved. Downloaded and installed a new copy of iTunes - everything now working correctly.

  • Windows XP does not recognise USB devices after installing itunes 7.2

    After downloading itunes 7.2 my PC no longer recognises my ipod nano (2G, 2Gig). Uninstalling itunes 7.2 and reverting to a previous version makes no difference.
    On top of this my PC no longer recognises my external USB 2.0 HDD.
    Uninstalling and allowing windows to rediscover USB devices \ hubs etc as per MS recomendations has not resolved my problem
    Both devices function with no issues when plugged into my laptop.
    Any suggestions on how to resolve this will be greatly received!
    Many thanks

    Power down and wait... does not solve the "USB Device Not Recognized" problem in my desktop running XP Professional.
    All five USB Root Hubs are stucked. I tried uninstalled them all and let XP to find new devices but afterwards the problem still remains.
    By the way, I have a thousand songs stored in the iPod Nano (2nd generation). Will iPod reset erase all my songs?

  • Windows 7 (32) itunes 8.0.2 does not recognise ipod touch - any ideas?

    trying windows 7 beta, upgrading from vista, most things work fine but when I plug my ipod in itunes does not see it any more. Windows 7 just shows it as an unspecified device, not browsable or anything. Tried re-installing itunes, re-booting etc, doesnt make any difference - my music library etc is still OK, it just doesnt see my ipod touch. Does anyone have any ideas on this please? Thanks.

  • Camera wizard does not recognise any devices with a camera attached when trying to transfer photos from iPhone 5s.

    iTunes recognises my iPhone 5s attached, but does not come up with the scanner/camera wizard giving me the option to upload pictures. I've tried going to control panel on the computer to try and open it that way, but it does not acknowledge that any devices with a camera are attached. It gives me the option to manually add one, but then it gets too technical for me. Anyone any ideas? Help will be greatly appreciated. - Thanks
    (P.S. - I'm using Windows XP if that makes a difference).

    Hey Catherine Sian,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone being recognized in iPhoto. The following resource may provide a solution:
