How do I get my computer to recognise my devise?

- Start here.  It is normal and expecedt for the computer open the an image program wehn an iPod is conncted since that is how one syncs saved photo from the iPod to the computer.
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- You can try disabling the camera program from opening and see if that helps:

- Have you installed a camera or scanner program or simlar recently and is that when the current problem started?  If so uninstall that program.

  • I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano.  The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one

    I have just bought an ipod classic, I already have an ipod nano.  The new ipod was connected to the computer to charge and it named itself with my name on the old nano, how do I get the computer to recognise the new one?

    My mistake, it was nothing to do with format.  It woldn't sync because my movies were HD.  HD movies won't sync to an iopd classic 160 GB but when you purchase a HD movie, itunes gives you a SD vervsion of the movie which is compatible with the ipod.  Just needed to go to store, click movies, click purchased and untick the HD box and there you have the SD versions.  Download the SD versions and then sync your ipod and bobs you uncle, movies are on the ipod

    How do I get I tunes to recognise my i pod shuffle 4th generation,as I keep getting fault message (2005)

    Hello there, CliveFromBR.
    The following Knowledge Base article covers the issue you're having with error 2005:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error2001
    Specifically the following:
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro D.

  • How do I get my iPad to recognise printer hp 1217nfw, I have a d-link router?

    How do I get my iPad to recognise my printer hp 1217nfw, connected with a d-link router?

    Don't know if you ever got this figured out but here is the answer...
    I just spent the last two days on this and have finally sorted it out. It actually isn't that hard to do but for some reason, no one has consolidated the information in one place!
    First and foremost, make sure that you have all the latest and greatest firmware updates for your printer, your computer and your mobile devices.
    Next, you need to connect your printer to your network via an ethernet cable, this is the only way to get in to the printer softare to configure it for your wireless network.
    Navigate the printer menus on the keypad to Reports>Config Report and print this report. It will provide you with the IP adress and IPv4 address for the printer.
    With the printer connected to your network and powered on, point your browser to the IP address of the printer. If this doen't work (it didn't for me) use the IPv4 address.
    This will open the configuration panel for the printer and will let you configure the wireless for the printer so that it can join your wireless network. You will see various tabs across the top. Select network. Then along the left you will see wireless. Choose that. Now you should see a list of wireless networks available including your very own home network. Choose that one, enter your password and hit apply.
    Disconnect the ethernet cable and you should be ready to Airprint from all devices. This worked for me, I can't imagine it won't work for all...then again...

  • I downloaded the new Pages and Numbers through my app store but when I open my old documents, it still tells me my 30 day trial is over. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize the new applications?

    More information: I have a 3 year old MacBook and had been using "Microsoft for Mac" until last week when I took my MacBook in for some upgrades- including the operating system Lion. I have been unable to use the Word, Excel, etc. programs because they are not supported on the new operating system... and I already used my 30 day trial of iWork when we first purchased the computer. I decided to buy Pages and Numbers through the App Store icon. When I open the Pages and Numbers under my Applications, I can get them to work. However, when I open old documents saved on my computer, they go into the 'old' iWork messages of that my trial has expired. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize that I've purchased Pages and Numbers?

    You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • My ipods are no longer recognized after I installed my Iphone I have 2 ipods that I have music on and still want to use them so how do I get the computer to recognize the ipods again?

    I recently got an Iphone and after I installed it on my computer my 2 ipods are no longer able to sync to the computer how do I get the computer to recognize the 2 different ipods so I can still use them?

    Since you already had two iPod before getting the iPhone, what exactly did you need to "install" to use the iPhone?  Doesn't it use to the same iTunes installation you already used with the iPods?
    So, I guess my question is, what changed on the computer when you started using the iPhone?
    What happens now when you connect the iPod?  Is the iPod still seen in Windows device manager?

  • How do I get the computer to automatically eject a drive before it enters Sleep?"

    I have an external eSATA drive connected via PCI Express card to my Mac Pro.  When I wake the computer, I get a complaint about not correctly ejecting the disk.  How can I get the computer to eject the drive before entering Sleep?  There are two partitions on the drive, so the answer will need to include "Eject All."  Perhaps an Apple Script could tell the drive to eject, but how to automatically run it?  If I could schedule it to run five or ten minutes before the scheduled Sleep, that should work.
    The reason for the external drive is to back up my TiVo recordings...WARNING...If you have a DVR Expander connected to your TiVo and EITHER fails, you lose everything!  I now transfer all my recordings from my TiVos to this drive so I won't lose recordings in the future.  Plus I can take the drive with me and connect it via a Thunderbolt wire and watch them on my laptop.

    Music is not included in the backup (and nor are films or tv shows), only the contents of third-party apps are included. Did you not do File > Transfer Purchases when connected to your computer's iTunes to copy your iTunes purchases over, and/or have you not got a backup copy of your music somewhere e.g. on an external drive ?

  • How do I get my ipad to recognise my pdf attachments as pdfs?

    My ipad does not always recognise a pdf file as as incoming mail attachment, so I cannot always open the pdf in another app.
    Although the attachment shows as a paperclip in the mail header, sometimes the content of the attachment is displayed in the body on the email. When this happens I don't get the small square window at the top right corner of the screen where you can select another app to open the pdf.
    How do I get my ipad to recognise my pdf attachments as pdfs and not show the content in the body of the mail message?

    This is from page 44 of the iPad User Manual:
    Open a meeting invitation or attachment: Tap the item. If the attachment can be used by multiple apps, touch and hold to choose an app that works with the file.
    Based on this, I suggest trying this:
    Touch and hold an area of the PDF file that displays in the body in your email.  Do you get the behavior described in the manual above?

    In the text you say you are using Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will not operate on a G4 (or any Mac with a PowerPC processor). Leopard OS 10.5 is the max OS for PowerPC processor Macs. Your profile shows OS 10.5.6. What OS are you using (or trying to use)?

  • "A plugin is needed to display this content", how do I get my computer to do this?

    I am trying to open a video file for my online class. When I click on the file, a gray box appears and reads "a plugin is needed to display this content". How do I get my computer to open the video. I have a MAC and zero knowledge of how to fix problems on it.

    Hmm, it depends on the type of video.
    Does Firefox offer a link to search for the plugin? That may lead to some useful information.
    If not, is the page available for viewing without logging in? If so, you could paste the address here for a volunteer to take a look.
    In case the site uses video compatible with Windows Media Player, or in anticipation of coming across such a site sooner or later, you may need to install a plugin for Mac that can play Windows Media. Microsoft offers a couple of options on this page:
