Help!!!!! my ipod classic 80gb is not showing neither in itunes nor my computer

Before i used my ipod with disk utility to launch snow leopard, but now i dont have the mac and i need to use it with windows helppppp.
what do i do with the ipod to show?

Try putting your iPod into Disk Mode before you connect it to the computer. This should allow your computer to at least recognize it. Just restart yoiur iPod by holding down the Menu and Select buttons, then when the screen goes out hold down Play and select. Once it says "OK To Disconnect" hook it up and see if that works.

  • Hey Apples Users, my iPod 80 GB ins not showing in windows, itunes and my computer

    hey Apples Users,
    my iPod 80 GB ins not showing in windows, itunes and my computer
    Could anyone in there show me the best solution for the same
    thanks in advance

    First of all does, the iPod power on okay? 
    Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB ports, preferably a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC tower (these are directly soldered onto the motherboard and receive much high outputs of power than the ones on the front).
    What about a different USB sync cable?
    What shows up on the iPod's screen when you connect it?  Does it charge at all?  Maybe try resetting it with it still connected to your PC.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • My ipod classic 80gb is not showing my music lists on my laptop

    My ipod classic 80gb is not displaying my music lists on my laptop after logging in to itunes !!!!

    Your "music list" in iTunes is in your iTunes library, not your iPod, so I don't understand what you are describing.
    In iTunes, select Music under LIBRARY in the iTunes sidebar.
    NOTE:  If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    That is your list of songs in iTunes, and it is there whether your iPod is connected or not. 
    When you connect the iPod, it should appear under DEVICES in the sidebar.  Click the small triangle to the left of the iPod name, to drop down the iPod's content list (indented below the iPod).  Click on Music there.  To the right, the list of songs on the iPod is shown.  That list is separate from your iTunes library music list.
    Can you describe the problem in your problem in more detail?

  • My ipod nano 5g will not show up in itunes or my computer

    I plug it into my computer and reset the device. the apple logo comes up, then it says connect to itunes and switches over to a screen that says "disk mode" with a check. nothing will happen after that.
    does anyone know what i have to do...?

    the ipod will not appear in my computer or itunes. a drive came up in my computer "drive H:" but i clicked on it and it said please insert a drive... i don't think the computer knows its there?
    i also looked through the diagnostics screen. i did all the little test it has to run, and they all passed. although one thing was missing... when you go to about under this screen, it shows the software version as "EFI Version: 0. 0e0" it should have: "EFI Version: 1. 4e1"
    i was thinking the computer doesn't see it because the ipod has no software installed to it?
    do you know if any of that would be a problem...?
    i did try the two links you sent me, but none of witch worked.

  • I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb. It tells that as iTunes can not read the contents-restore to factory settings- after restoring – it tells that it can not be restore bcause there are files that are used by other application. I am having Widows

    I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb.

My iPOD appears in My Computer in drive H as a mass storage generick volume

    Try disabilng the Enable Disk Use option from under the iPod's Summary tab, applying the changes, and seeing if that helps.
    Otherwise, temporarily disabling any antivirus, security, firewall, or file indexing software that may be running on your system and then try restoring your iPod again.

  • Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it

    Ipod not showing up on itunes or my computer.it recharges when i connect it but it dosent show up under devices so i cant sync any music!!the screen on the ipod would usually say "connecting"or"do not disconnect"but it dosent say that anymore!!Ive been trying to fix it for DAYS but i cant find a good enough solution.PLZ HELP!!(p.s. i have a 4th generation nano)

    Hey there,
    A file or some files may have become corrupt somehow during connecting or disconnecting the unit. Try putting it into Disk Mode and see if that helps. To put it into Disk Mode, hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears. When it does, immediately press and hold the Center an Play/Pause buttons until you see a confirmation that your iPod has been put into Disk Mode.
    If you are able to do this, it may be a good idea to restore the iPod to its original settings. Keep in mind that by doing this you are erasing all the music and files from your iPod so make sure they are backed up on your computer somewhere. More on restoring your iPod can be found in the Apple document below.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ipod shuffle 2nd generation not showing up in itunes

    ipod shuffle 2nd generation not showing up in itunes and when in its dock blinking orange.

    I believe blinking orange means the iPod shuffle is in use by the computer (in some way).  That's actually good, because it means it is at least recognized as being connected to USB.
    If you have not already, be sure to try shutting down the computer completely (power off), with the iPod NOT connected.  Also, follow this procedure to reset the iPod shuffle.

    Turn on your computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect the iPod shuffle.

  • IPod classic 80GB suddenly stops showing on iTunes both on explorer and finder (I use windows 7 and Mac OSX) Any help?Tried everything nothing works!!!

    Hello everyone.
    I have bought an (admittedly used) iPod classic 80GB on New Year's this year.For the better part of this month it was working beautifully.I was lucky that I got it.But just a week ago,it started bugging out.It would mount on iTunes and I would drag and drop music and videos on it but could only do it one at a time or it froze.This continued on for a couple days then finally yesterday it won't show on itunes at all.I tried resetting it,changing usb ports but it still wouldn't show except on plugged devices on ''Computer'' and on Finder (I have been trying to make it show on my macbook as well with no luck either)
    I ever resorted to trying to remove completely and reinstall iTunes.still won't show and unfortunately for some reason whenever I try to reinstall it now on my windows 7 it says something about it ''missing a key'' and stopping the installation.
    Can anyone offer me any solutions?I am growing pretty desperate here as the last time i managed to do a ''drag and drop'' to put my videos and music in it,any movie I dropped into the iPod,even though it shows on the device,it won't play at all -.-
    PS.The ipod had been updated and formatted on my windows 7 if that helps any....
    PS2.I had restored my iPod twice both on Windows 7 and on my MacBook when the freezing issue had happened when i plugged it in on my PC.It is currently updated and formatted on windows
    PS3.iPod is on disk mode already and now still can't reinstall itunes 11
    SOS Someone help me Offer me some solutions other than the ones I've already tried??

    I am still having the problem. I have noticed a pattern to the seemingly random freezes.
    The iPod is stopping to Sync at almost predictable points during the sync. The first stoppage occurs around the 1.9GB part of the sync. This has not always been the same file but it is always around the same place.
    When I sync in small chunks the freeze occurs at almost the same place every time. As soon as it freezes, iTunes is toast and the entire computer needs to be restarted.
    Anyways, the freeze happens around every 2GB's of data transferred. It does not have to be in one chunk, it is almost like it is happening on the iPod. Like the iPod is kicking itself out of the sync at certain points along it's hard drive or something. Once it freezes and I restart the computer, I can transfer another 2 GB before it freezes again... then restart, repeat. Finally I was able to load up the 14.8 GB I had in my iTunes. Several hours later... not sure if I should take the iPod back or not. If it is the iPod and that fixes the problem great... but if it is my machine, I get another 3-4 hours syncing and restarting my computer. Wheeee!
