HT1351 my itunes won't recognize my ipod in devices when I have it connected to my computer? How do I get it to sync? it is a ipod classic
I have a ipod classic and my itunes will not recognize it under devices when I have it plugged into my computer. I have restored the ipod and itunes is up to date on my computer. I have not been able to get my music to sync onto this ipod. Thanks for the help
If the iPod was not recognized by iTunes, how was the Restore performed?
The latest iTunes may hide the sidebar. This may be confusing to long-time iTunes users. If you don't see the sidebar on the left side, go up to the menu bar. Under Views, select Show Sidebar.
With the sidebar visible, do you see the iPod under DEVICES?

when I plug my iPhone in to my computer, iTunes doesn't recognize it as a device. I have deleted and re-downloaded iTunes twice which seems to fix the problem temporarily but then the next time I plug my phone in, the device is not recognized.
What happens if you go to iTunes > File > Devices, do you get the option to Sync iPhone?
You could try a reinstall of iTunes. OS X Yosemite: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac -

Hello, bone61.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below. Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver. If the issue persists try all remaining steps.

Itunes won't recognize ipad as a device
iTunes recognises my ipod which is great, it shows under My Devices on the left of iTunes. But when I plug in my iPad Mini I get an error message saying the device is unknown and to unplug it and plug it in again but that doesn't work. It won't give any instructions as to how you get iTunes (on the PC) to recognise the iPad.
Which version of Itunes do you have?

ITunes won't recognize any of my devices after latest update.
This is pretty rediculous, none of my devices (iPad and iPod) will show up when connected to iTunes since the last update. They show up fine on my computer, why must I try to figure this out because Apple can't test their stuff before releasing it. I guess once they have our money who cares, they'll just release the newer model next year and everyone will buy it. I've tried for hours and I can't get them to show up.

Why won't it sync? Are you getting any sort of error message during the sync process? If so what is the exact wording of that error message? If this the computer you normally sync the iPod with?

I have Mac mini Mid 2010. It will no longer open photo memory card in SD reader slot. Plus, I've tried using a card reading device in USB slot, and it won't open that either. Any thoughts?
Do other USB things work?
Do they show up in Disk Utility at all? -
due to lack of memory space i moved my itunes media library,only now i think i have lost most of my library as the i tunes page comes up empty,no playlists,no music, no music videos,no tv shows. can anyone help?
Hong Kong,
I don't think it is lost. I think it is on the other hard drive where you put it.
There are better and worse ways to move a library. If possible, put it back the way it was, and then move it by following this guide: iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder -
someone please help me fix my phone
I've not seen this type of behavior, but see if this support document helps. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1664

TS1410 itunes won't recognize my ipod ma446ll
For the longest time now, non of my Apple Computers recognize my iPod. It's very annoying since (even though old) my iPod is working in near to perfect conditions. There are no solutions from Apple, and I've search the web non-stop to find some enlightment and found nothing. I hope to find some from you guys. I've already tried all this:
1. Check the USB cable
2. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
3. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
4. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
5. Check for third-party mobile phone software
6. Troubleshoot third-party security software
Hmm yeah, non work.
What do I do, I don't want to throw it out...It Works!
Help!!What appears on the iPod's screen when you have it connected to any of your Macs? Have you tried a hard reset of the device with it still connected to a high powered USB 2.0 port? To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Are you running the latest version of iTunes and have all of the latest Mac OS X updates applied to your system? Did this iPod ever work on any of these Macs?

Itunes won't recognize iPod after installing MediaMonkey..
Hi,
I recently switched from Itunes to MediaMonkey, and I'm very happy. But my girlfriend still uses iTunes. And now her iTunes won't recognize neither her or my iPod when I connect either of them. Windows and MediaMonkey recognizes them perfectly. iTunes just comes up with this error message:
"The software necessary to communicate with iPod isn't correctly installed. Install iTunes again before installing iPod-software."
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing iTunes a number of times. I even tried uninstalled MediaMonkey, but nothing works..
PLEASE HELP ME, I'M GOING INSANE HERE =(Have you tried working through the steps in this article, in the order listed?
