have an ipod nano 4th generation. I let my grandson, who has a shuffle, connect his shuffle to my computer and now my itunes recognizes his shuffle and not my nano. How can I get rid of his shuffle and re-add my nano?
Hi lundjj,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You may find the troubleshooting steps in this article helpful if your iPod nano does not appear in iTunes:

This information can also help if you are using multiple devices with a computer:
iPod for Windows: Connecting multiple iPod devices to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3622
Although FireWire and USB connections will allow multiple iPod devices to be connected to the computer at the same time, iTunes for Windows works best with only one iPod connected at a time. If you plan to connect multiple iPod devices to the same computer, eject any iPod devices that you are not using from iTunes.
All the best,

I have an Ipod Touch, it appears inactive and says "connect to Itunes". When I connect to the PC, the PC says "USB device not working". How could do to solve this problem?
See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP -
When I connect my iPod nano 7th gen. to my computer and open itunes, there is a message that says the iPod could not be detected. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
7. Check for third-party software conflicts. -
I bought a new ipod touch today and it connects to my wifi automatically... But I forgot my wifi password for my new iPod touch and I don't know how to find it in my old iPod?
You can usually find the wi-fi password on your router itself if you know the router's ID and password (not the wi-fi password). You can log into your router by putting its address (usually 192.168.1.1) into your browser's address window.

Hello and good afternoon, my IPod Touch is neither in windows explorer nor in iTunes to be seen. When I turn my IPod on, i shall connect it to my computer; but when I do so, nothing happens. What can I do, please ???
Take a look at the troubleshooting steps provided by Apple in this support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
Hope those help.
Your iPod touch will never appear in Windows Explorer, by the way. It doesn't have the "disk mode" that the older iPods did.

My mom put my ipod 5th gen in the house somewhere and it was turned off. It is connected to the internet in the house. How do i turn it on with the Findmyiphone or something else? It was an expensive gift and we can't find it now! Please help! How do i turn it on without finding it because she can't remember where it was.
That is so dumb...Apple is the best and most techinological company IN THE WORLD and they don't have the time to invent something like that? HUH? All they are worried about is making the "Worlds best Phone" and they can't take the time out to help their users or anybody that has their products. All they have is "Find mt Iphone" Well they should step up and do something else to help people like me out. Find a way to turn it on and you can find it or find a way to turn it on remotely.
Thank you for your replys -

my pc crashed...and i purchased a new one and installed itunes...how can i sync my ipod touch 2 my pc? when i connect it 2 itunes on my new pc..by defualt it will rerase everthing on my ipod
The other responder gave you a program that will transfer stuff from your iPod to your new computer. You can transfer iTunes purchaces to your new computer by:

After you move your stuff to your new computer you will have to let iTunes erase your iPod and then sync with the stuff that is now in your iTunes library. You will loose app data though. -
How do I transfer songs from my daughters itunes library onto my ipod? We both have itunes libraries on a single computer running Windows Vista
Your question has probaby been answered already because it was posted a month ago but anyways what you do is you plug your phone into your computer. Next you want to open iTunes and click on File. Then you go down to "Transfer Purchases from *your name* iPhone". Then just wait for it to sync and you should be good.

So we just got a new computer and I was able to successfully add my iPod/library to it. However when I tried to add my husbands iPod/library to the computer his library didn't show up. He is ony able to charge his iPod but cannot see his library. I tried adding another account/admin to my computer and download itunes with his ipod that way but it said there was another library and it couldn't access his library song list. His ipod is showing up on the left side however when I click on it there is nothing displaying. So my question to you or what I am trying to figure out is how can I get his ipod to show up with his library if he plugs in his ipod? Do I need to create a new account and if so how do I do it? I have a windows computer. Can someone give me step by step instructions on how to do this? He is going crazy not being able to access anything.

so i got ios 7 in beta on my ipod touch, now several months later, it says my ipod touch needs to be activated. it wont activate over wifi or when connected to itunes. how can i fix this?
You say you have iOS 7 beta. If you are a developer you have access to the private OS 7 developer's forum
iOS 7 Developer forum- Apple Developer
Otherwise you are on your own since you have a bootleg copy
