How do I get Itunes to read my itouch?

I updated my Itunes to the latest version and ever since I did that, Itunes isn't reading my itouch. I went through the steps on the Apple Support page, but it still isn't reading it. Is there any other way to get Itunes to read my Itouch?

    Hopefully you have the library files on the drive too, or access to the original computer where the library still works. See Make a split library portable.

  • How do I get iTunes to read and import track information?

    How do I get iTunes to read and import track information from compilation CDs? Typically, the compilations have been burned to disk using iTunes or Toast 8 Titanium. I have checked data boxes as available with both softwares. My REGA Planet CD player as well as my car CD player can read the track info but neither my nor my friends' iTunes can read the tracks for importing.

    I don't believe that iTunes can read CDText.

  • How can i get itunes to read my CDs again

    I cannot get iTunes to read my CDs. It keeps telling me to reinstall iTunes, and I did, but it still will not read my CDs

    Hey there wesley254,
    It sounds like your audio cds are not being seen in iTunes when you insert them into your drive. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article about that very subject:
    iTunes for Windows doesn't recognize my audio CDs
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1584
    Verify Windows recognizes your optical drive
    If Microsoft Windows recognized your optical drive, but doesn't recognize it now, follow the instructions in iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install.
    Check for software updates
    Microsoft or your computer's manufacturer may have released updated software. Check to see if there are updates to Windows or to the software that controls the drive. Check your computer manufacturer's website for updates, particularly for updates to the CD or DVD drive. If you bought the drive separately from the computer, check the drive manufacturer's website. In some cases, software drivers for other devices (such as video and sound cards) could affect how the CD or DVD drive works. Make sure your video and sound cards have the most current drivers.
    Check for firmware updates
    From time to time manufacturers publish updates to a CD or DVD drive's internal software (known as firmware). Check your computer manufacturer's website for firmware updates first. This is important because the internal drives used by some companies (including Dell) require special firmware. If an update is not available from the computer manufacturer, check with the company that made the drive. In some cases, firmware for other devices (such as video and sound cards) could affect how the CD or DVD drive works. Make sure your video and sound cards have the latest firmware as well.
    Important: Use special care when installing firmware updates. Incorrectly installing a firmware update could damage the drive and make it unusable. Always check with the computer manufacturer first before checking with the drive manufacturer.
    Additional steps
    If you have more than one optical drive, try using iTunes with each drive.
    Burner software conflicts
    If iTunes had previously been working and you recently installed some software that also includes CD burning capabilities (including Napster, Audible, or other online music store software), you may need to do a Repair installation of iTunes.
    If iTunes still does not recognize audio CDs after you try these steps, it is possible that third-party software has installed device filters on your computer that are contributing to this issue. Learn more about device filters and how to resolve issues they cause.
    To assist Apple in identifying affected drives, please provide feedback by running CD Diagnostics in iTunes

  • How can I get iTunes to recognize my iTouch? And I can't force restore, error 1611. Help?

    My iTunes does not recognize my iTouch and I want to restore it to factory settings. I am not able to restore due to an error 1611. What does this mean and how can I get my iTouch to work again, currently it won't even start to charge.

    Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.

  • How do i get itunes to read from an external harddrive without transfering it all on to the computer

    I have 1.5 terrabytes of movies on an external hard drive. my internal hard drive is only 1 terrabye. Every time I try to link my movies it starts to transfer everything back to the internal. is there a way to make it read just movies (music is on the internal) on the external, without duplicating it all on to my mac?

    Hold down the option key while dragging items to the iTunes window.  This will override iTunes copying the media to its media folder and simply add it in its current location.  There can be disadvantages to this, particularly when the day comes you wish to relocate items to a new external drive.   You will have to re-add those items to the library again, losing things such as ratings, playcount, etc.

  • How do I get iTunes to read from my external drive?

    Ok, before you post this link http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748 please read this. That link only seems to give advice if you have your music on your computer's hard drive and you want to transfer it all to another drive. My problem is that all of my music is currently on an external drive. There is nothing to transfer or consolidate from my computer. I've gone into the preferences and set the iTunes music folder to the location on my external drive. The part about consolidating doesn't seem applicable in my case. So now that I've set the location of my iTunes music folder why isn't anything showing up in my iTunes library? Why can't I play any music?

    So have any of this "external" music ever been added to iTunes? If not, go to File>Add to Library. Then navigate to the external hard-drive folder that contains the music.

  • How do I get iTunes to read music from two drives?

    I recently bought an external hard drive for my laptop to transfer some of my music files that I don't use a lot. I have transfered these files but when I go to play them from iTunes it can't find them and I have to manually locate each song, after that is done iTunes knows where it is at but there has to be an easier way than doing this for a thousand songs!!??

    Mike,
    This is just a little beyond the reach of iTunes at this time.
    The correct way to move files to another drive is described here, but this only works when you want to move ALL files to the new location.

  • How can I get Itunes to recognize my itouch

    When connected to my PC - Windows 8 - ITunes 11 doesn't show the device at all.  Doesn't show my ipad either.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    Next try
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • How do I get iTunes to see my content from "iTunes media" ?

When I look in iTunes folder all my content is in iTunes media folder, how do I get iTunes  to read from media folder so I have all my music films podcasts etc? Or so it's all in the right place. The is in advance

    i followed the instructions to manually manage songs and playlists.
    Drag playlists from iTunes in the Source to the iPod.
    If you want to delete a playlists from the iPod, in the Source in iTunes, click th eDisclosure triangle in front of the iPod name to display the playlists on the iPod.
    You should edit the playlists in iTunes and then drag them to the iPod.
    If you edit them only on the iPod in iTunes, and have to reload your iPod, the playlists will disappear.
    what do i need to do to save the music from my nano to my hard drive
    The songs should be in iTunes already.

    You don't get the itunes program on your Android devise at all.
    You would need to read the directions for your phone to learn how to put music on it.

  • I imported a cd that I purchased and I can't get it to sync to my phone. All the songs have a grey circle in front of them and the names of the songs are grey as well. How do I get iTunes to see them so they can sync to my iPhone?.

    I've imported 3 cd's to my iTunes, but they continue to be "grey-ed out" with a dotted grey circle in front of them. The music will not sync to my iPhone. How do I get iTunes to recognize them so that they will sync?

    Thanks Chris CA.
    In the Gen 4 they offer "Settings" then "Reset Settings"  Then it asks, "Do you want to reset your iPod?"  I click on "reset" but then nothing resets. :-(  This is what makes me think it might be locked or something....
