Done everything, iPod Video still not regconized in iTune 6 !!! ???

I have purchased the iPod Video 30GB Black
First of all, i am using Windown XP Pro SP2. I installed the iPod updater 12/Oct/2005 ( or driver .. whatever ) and iTunes 6.0.13 which are both newest version. Yep, Windown Explorer can regconize it. Alright, let's open iTunes and rock! Woopseeee, iTunes isn't regconize it ?? *** ?? Okey, i will reset my iPod, remove iPod driver and restart my computer. Then i reinstall iTune and install the driver, still can't regconize in iTunes. I restart my computer again and done the same thing .. *** .. ??
What can i do now ? Please help me out !
Regards

OK....you might want to try this.....write me with some more error messages or how your iPod/ iTunes responds to any of this. If you can, I would try restoring the iPod first (art #300701). Does the iPod Updater recognize it??
SCENARIO 1: Follow article number 93716: iPod appears in Windows Explorer, but does not appear in iTunes
(You might have to either reinstall the COM interface, completely remove iTunes and the iPod Updater and install them again - VERY IMPORTANT: Follow the steps exactly like they're written)
SCENARIO 2: Disable the Anti-Virus Program running on your computer (make sure you are NOT on the internet when you disable your anti virus!)
SCENARIO 3: You have some fighsty programs running on your computer that like to start a conflict with macintosh based software and need run a MSCONFIG (article #302538)
SCENARIO 4: You do NOT meet the system requirements (check article 60971)
SCENARIO 5: Check your device manager, if it is completely blank, you more than likely need to wipe your hard drive, because you probably have a virus on your computer and need to start from scratch
SCENARIO 6: You get an error message while your doing any of the above steps (refer to article 93976 or any other knowledge base article, or contact either installshield or your computer manufacturer for further assistance)

  • Tried all suggestions, iPod Nano still not recognized by iTunes

    My iPod refuses to show up as a source in iTunes. This is the only possible conclusion I can make, given I've tried each of the following steps:
    1. Re-setting the iPod.
    2. Restoring the iPod.
    3. Restarting the iPod service.
    4. Re-installing iTunes (after removing it, emptying trash, removing iTunes updaters, emptying temp folders)
    5. Clean up iTunes installer files using Windows Installer Cleanup Utility.
    6. Disabling conflicting System Services and Startup Items.
    None worked. At an impasse, I took the iPod into the Genius Bar at San Francisco’s Apple Store. The resident genius looked at the iPod, plugged it into his Mac and VOILA, it was recognized by iTunes. He erased the contents anyway, and told me to plug it into my PC at home and it would be recognized by iTunes.
    Sure enough, he was right. It was recognized by iTunes. . .but only until it told me that the iPod needed to be formatted to work in Windows, since the Apple Store restoration was done on a Mac. (Mind you, prior to this problem starting a few months ago, the iPod never had trouble working with Windows.) The next instruction was to restore the iPod, after which “iPod will show up in the Source list of iTunes.”
    My hopes were up. . . .Finally, I would be able to use my iPod again!!
    Except no. No dice. The PC recognizes it as an iPod. When I plug it in, iTunes launches. When I plug in my girlfriend’s iPod into my PC, it shows up in the source list of my iTunes. When I plug my iPod into my girlfriends’s PC, it does not show up in the Source list, even though other iPods do show up in her iTunes.
    It just won’t show up as a Source in iTunes on any PC. This seems like an issue with my iPod, not my PC.
    I’m frustrated as ****. Anybody seen this happen before? Any ideas on how to make it work?

    I've finally got it to SYNC with my iTune! YAY!!
    I've done so many of the things you listed I'm sure what really fixed it.
    I reset the ipod nano itself by pressing and holding down the pause and play button.
    I also moved the USB connection to a different USB connection on the back of my computer.
    I opened the "My Computer" window and right-clicked on my ipod, and then selected "Format". I select "Yes" to format since I don't have anything on the nano to delete anymore.
    I then Eject my nano from the computer and did a restart while the nano is disconnected from the computer.
    Once Windows finish loading I reconnect the USB to the nano(back of computer) which automatically pulls up iTune. It asked me to name the new ipod detected and created a playlist for that specific ipod name.
    Whew~ Took me 4 hours to fix it. I hope this helps others in their quest to their answers. :P

  • Multilingual iPod messages, STILL not functioning with iTunes 7.0.1.8

    OK. So I have diligently tried all the possible solutions on these boards (some many times), and none have worked for my iPod thus far. Either I'm missing something, or I have a different problem altogether.
    I'll preface this by saying that I did upgrade to iTunes 7.0 (and again to 7.0.1.8) but hadn't plugged in my iPod yet, and the day before I plugged it in for the first time, I also dropped it on the pavement while it was in its hard plastic case.
    When I tried to turn it on, it told me in several different languages that I needed to plug in to my computer so iTunes could restore it.
    When I did that, I got all the "recovery mode" messages and error 1418s that everyone else is describing.
    When I try to format by Windows Explorer, Disk Management OR command prompt, it sits there for a long time until it decides it's not going to format. Last night I got it all the way to 99% on the command-prompt format and it told me there was a disk error and that it couldn't be formatted (I don't remember the exact message because I flew into hysterics).
    *I actually DID get my iPod to restore fully once, with the Apple on the screen and the progress bar and everything, but it went straight back to multilingual after that.*
    Help? Guys, I'm desperate. I'm listening to CDs at work, and my subway ride in to work is horrifying.
    Did I break it?!

    I had major issues until I visited http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304434 and turned my Terminal Services back on. I had set it to "Disable" to save resources. Once I set it to "manual", the IPOD worked great with Itunes.

  • IPOD VIDEO 30GB not recognized by iTunes or My PC

    So I have this ipod that I'm trying to revive. I'm not even sure which generation it is, but it's a 30GB ipod classic and I bought like in 2005. Here's the thing, this ipod has been in my drawer for years and when I turn it on it says "Use itunes to restore", but itunes wont recognize it, and it won't appear as a disk in my pc. I plug it into the computer and it says do not disconnect but nothing happens, BUT, when I use the "menu and center button at the same time" trick while it is plugged in until the apple logo appears, it shows up in my pc as REMOVABLE DISK F: (an empty one though)
    I right click it to format it but by this time the "use itunes to restore" message has appeared again and the ipod either disappears from my pc or it says "the device has been disconnected".
    Also, when I open the computer's device manager it appears as APPLE IPOD USB device, which gives me some hope, but it doesn't show any of its properties. (It says - for each characteristic. I mean, Disk -, Type -, Status -, etc)
    Finally, when I leave it plugged in for a while just waiting, my computer freezes completely until I plug it out.
    Any tips?? Thanks!!
    And greetings from Venezuela

    did you try all those steps:
    Disconnect the device from the computer.
    Save a screenshot by pressing the Home button and the Wake/Sleep button at the same time (the screen should flash briefly). Note: Taking screenshots and saving images on iPod touch requires iOS version 2.0 or later.
    Reconnect the device to the computer.
    Open the Device Manager in Windows as follows:
    Windows XP: Click Start > Run. In the resulting dialog type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard.
    Windows Vista or Windows 7: Click Start. In the dialog, type devmgmt.msc and press Return on the keyboard. If Windows needs your permission to continue, click "Continue".
    Expand all the sections labeled below (not all sections may be listed):
    Imaging Devices
    Other Devices
    Portable Devices
    Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    Look for the entry that recognizes the device as a camera. This entry should be called Apple iPhone,Apple iPad, or Apple iPod.

    These are your options:
    1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
              Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
              Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
    2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
              Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
              Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
    3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
              Advantages: All images should be preserved.
              Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

  • My Ipod touch will not connect to itunes. It only connects to the computer, nothing else. I have tried everything that I can, but itunes still wont recognize it. I even checked the printers and drivers and it stated that my Ipod is now a digital camera.

    I am not sure what I should do anymore, and I dont have the money to buy a new Ipod. Can anyone help me with this problem?

    Assuming a PC start here:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    It is normal for the computer to recognize the iPod as a camera since thatis how one gets photos and videos off the iPod.

    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?

    Does it charge?
    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.
    - Try another cable
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

  • My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges, Please help

    My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges when connected via USB Please help

    Did plugging it into another USB port do any good? Make sure it is a USB port on the back of your PC and not via a USB hub or one on the front as they sometimes do not output enough power for the iPod to properly communicate with your PC.
    Do you have another 30 pin dock connector cable around you use to try and rule out a faulty cable? 
    Did you try a hard reset of the device with it still connected to your PC?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    With the article above were you able to verify that the Apple Mobile Device Service was installing and running on your system?
    Lastly, try plugging it into a different PC to see if it is recognized there.  It can help narrow down whether it is an issue with the iPod or with your PC.

    Is it not charging at all? Did you try to reset? If YES to both, request for a replacement of the ipod. Battery or the unit itself is defective. Cheers!

    Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
