My computer won't recognize my iPOD Touch even though it does recognize my Clasic and Nano. Any suggestions?

Well, now I feel like an idiot. I was using TWO CORDS. Ya, don't make my mistake. The one I had a problem with was made by a company that was not apple, and it was for CHARGING. I bought it with charger, and that's all it can do. It doesn't send data like the real cable. So, check your usb cables. :S

    I purchased an audio book from iTunes store. It successfully downloaded to my iTunes library< but will not upload to my ipod Touch, even though my computer is authorized. Any suggestions? Any and all are greatly appreciated.

    If your iTunes is set on manual sync, then you have to manually drag and drop. Otherwise every time yousyncyou'll get all changes even if you don't want it.

    Try deleting the account from the iPod and try reentring all the information again.  A lot of times it is easier to reenter the information rather than trying to find and correct the error.
    Try Googling for how to setup the email account for your provider on an iPhone.  You can try for an iPod Touch but frequently that does not exist.

  • Can't add music to ipod touch even though computer and itunes recognize it

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation that has suddenly stopped allowing me to add any music to it. It worked absolutely great with no problems for about a year  and suddenly when I load it up on itunes I can't add any music to it at all. if I try and drag any music from my computer on to it, I get this no icon as you can see
    Same if I try and add music from my itunes library.
    I've done pretty much everything I can think of to try and fix this, I've completely wiped itunes from my computer and re-installed, I've made sure that my ipods ios is up to date, I've reset my ipod, I've completely erased my ipod and restored it to factory settings. I have an old backup but it fails every time I try and restore it, saying that the backup session failed. I've tried resetting the lockdown folder as recommended but when I delete it, itunes can't connect to my ipod, so I ended up restoring the lockdown folder back to where it was from my trash can. I've made sure all my drivers are up to date and my computer is AMD so i know its not an intel chipset/ipod issue. I've turned off my antivirus and computer security programs and that made no difference at all.
    These problems are the same when tried on another computer and I'm sure I've done other things as well but I'm drawing a blank trying to think them up.
    I have an old ipod mini that has absolutely no problems at all using the same itunes and computer so I'm pretty sure this issue is located just on this ipod. I bought it used on amazon so the warranty and service coverage have already expired, so I kinda have to figure out how to fix it myself..
    Anybody help at all with this would be greatly appreciated

    I don't see how it could be windows causing the issue since my other ipod works fine with this installation of windows on this computer and I don't at the moment have anyway to back up what I have on my computer in order to re-install windows, but maybe if nobody else has another solution I'll look into it. Thank you for your help and suggestions

  • Is there a way to find my ipod touch even though I didn't register it on iclound

    is there a way to locate my ipod touch even thought I didn't register it on icloud

    Only the old fashioned way
    lost/stolen                                      
    No app on the iPod is required.                            
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • My computer won't recognise my iPod Classic, even in disk mode?

    I have a 160GB 6th generation iPod classic and my itunes won't recognise it. When I plug it into my laptop the laptop makes the noise as to say it has a new device connected, but it won't show up in my windows explorer or in my itunes. I have googled it and seen that I can put it into disk mode to try and fix it but when I do that the screen says OK to disconnect, and doesn't change even when I plug it into my computer. The laptop still doesn't recognise it then. I have tried different leads and the computer makes the 'recognises new device' noise with both, but it still doesn't work. The ipod doesn't say it is connected, the charging icon doesn't even come up on the battery on the screen of the ipod but I have left it plugged in and it is charging. I think it's a problem with the iPod as even when I plug it into the plug socket to charge the same thing happens, with no response from the battery icon. The screen does however light up when it's plugged in so the iPod recognises that it is plugged into a charging source, but thats just the backlight coming on and nothing else and it won't let me sync it or anything.
    I can't get to an apple store for over 3 weeks as I am home for Easter and there's none near me but any help would be appreciated!!
    I have restarted it multiple times, it still doesn't work.

    Bump, I have this exact problem.
    iPod Classic, 160GB, running the latest OS
    Charges, but doesn't display charging icon (no lightning bolt in the top right). Doesn't recognize that it is plugged into the computer, and the computer doesn't recognize it (MacBook Pro, again, latest OS).
    I have reset it... twice. And I've put it in disc mode - same results.
    It will charge off my computer, but it won't sync, and it hasn't for about a week, so my podcasts are all out of date
    Thanks for the help!

  • My itunes doesn't recognize my ipod touch because I've never connected it before and it is disabled, it won't let me restore it, it says to enter a passcode in order to connect and I can't because it is disabled

    My ipod touch is disabled and it says to connect to itunes to restore.  I have never added the ipod to my devices on my itunes so when I connect it says that itunes doesn't recognize the device.  I then put it in recovery mode and connected it to itunes and I clicked restore and it says that itunes can't connect until I put in the passcode, but I can't put in a passcode because it is disabled!!!  I don't know how to fix it and it is only a month old, should I take it back?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • ITunes On New Computer Won't Sync To iPod Touch

    A couple months ago I got a new laptop. I was able to transfer all my songs over from the iPod Touch (5th Generation) to the computer successfully (including plays w/ a program I downloaded). I made changes to the library since then (deleting some songs and adding some new ones). Today for the first time since I got the new laptop, I tried to sync iTunes (updated) to the iPod 3 times but it wouldn't make any changes. I've yet to update the iOS (my iPod is 2 iOS's behind). If anyone can help, thank you in advance.

    You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    If ll the synced media like apps and music are on the new computer, just backup to iTunes and restore from that backup
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       

  • I downloaded the album Hullabaloo and the files are protected and won't let me put them on my iPod touch, even though the computer is authorized. How do i unprotect them?

    Read the title, that's basically it. It says it can't put the songs on my iPod because the computer isn't authorized, even though it is. The files are "protected" and have been like that since i bought the album. Any help? Thanks:)

    De-authorize your computer, then authorize it again.

  • Premiere won't recognize my usb mic even though my mac recognizes it

    I am trying to do a voice over, but when I attach my usb mic, premiere will not recognize it as an input even though I selected it in the sound settings on my mac. When I did my first voice over, the mic was recognized, but now it is a no go.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.
    Kevin

    What I have found is that you have to make the audio input change at the computer system level first, then start PPro and make the changes in the Audio Hardware section. So on the Mac, Sys Preferences - Sound -Input - choose your mic. Then start up PPro - Preferences - Audio Hardware - Choose System Default Settings (usually the first one on the drop down list). Then go through arming the track. You should see VU input at that point.
    PPro does not dynamically check any changes in the sound settings once it is launched. Quit PPro, set up the mic, relaunch and set inputs. This works consistently for me and my classroom.

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on, Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on

    My ipod touch was working fine until yesterday it just shut off with about half of charge left. I tried holding the power and home button but nothing. When I plug it into the charging wall outlet the low battery screen pops up and same goes for when I plug it into iTunes on my computer. I let it alone overnight to see if the battery would drain but same thing happened today. What should I do?

    I have never seen this answer before but here's what worked for me and I found it accidentally.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad and I only had 1 charger (my only Apple cord didn't work anymore so I had thrown it out and I thought maybe that was the problem, except my iphone charged fine with my pink cord) by my bedside, so I would just hook up the one that needed it the most before I went to bed.  Well one day I woke up to find that my iPad had a low battery, with the red battery picture. When I plugged it into the charger, it just kept recycling to the Apple logo and then the spinning wheel of death, and back again.
    I did some research and couldn't figure it out. People who thought it was a dead battery still had the same problem after they sent it in and got a new battery  My iPad is not jail broken and half the "solutions" were over my head. I have over 1300 apps on my iPad, not to mention thousands of pictures, that I was just feeling so bereft and sad that I might have lost everything.  So I just let my iPad sit, and drained the whole battery down to the nubbin.  It was 2-3 days without a charger that I just let it sit.
    Then I put it on the charger again and I noticed I still got the red battery symbol, but the red was a thinner slice. I went to work and left it on the charger all day. When I returned, one of my FB notifications came on and bam, there it was, my sign on screen or whatever it's called, where you slide the thingy across. And it was back!!!!!!
    So I was overjoyed.  I'd also had a problem syncing with a warning that it overloaded my USB port. It was a separate problem, but I was able to sync it after that, and my iPhone too, so I was ecstatic.
    Then the battery thing happened again about a week later.  I thought I had been diligent about keeping it charged but it went down after only a day off the charger.  Realized that I had FB and mail notifications notifying me in the startup screen, so that it was constantly turning itself on and off.  I have almost 5000 FB friends and 10 email accounts, so that was a lot of steady activity that I wasn't really aware of.  I have now turned off all notifications to every app, since they also come on my phone AND I bought a 2nd cord, a purple one, so now I'm set and don't expect to ever have that problem again.
    Hope this helps everyone who thought they had a brick.

    Does it work?
    Does it charge?
    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
    Run this to help if it identifies the cause

  • Am I able to find my stolen iPod touch even though I didn't put a tracking device on it before it was stolen?

    It seems that someone has stolen my iPod touch at my school.
    I didnt put a tracking device on it before it was stolen.
    So I was curious as to whether it's forever lost or somehow I am still able to find out where it's at?

    There is no need of a 'tracking device'. Hope you turned on the Find my iPhone button in the Settings app. If you did, just go to www.icloud.com , signin with your Apple ID, go to devices and from there you will be able to locate it's position, erase, seta  passcode, play sound, display a message, etc. remotely! Note that this works only when the iPod is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    If you didn't turn on the Find my iPhone setting, you are out of luck!
