  • Help!!! Itunes and Pc can't detect my Ipod Touch 4g

    I tried everything that Apple Support told me to do and still can't detect my ipod touch 4g. Still stuck at apple boot logo, tried DFU mode and Recovery, still can't be detected by PC or Itunes. What to do? I need Help Badly.
    When i connect my ipod, no sounds pops out but it opens and charge still stuck at boot logo.
    I'm running Windows7 ultimate.
    Some told me to connect it to a Mac Book, is it possible that it can be detected on a mac book? Because i only tried connectin it to other Windows PC with XP, Vista and still haven't got anything. I don't thinl it's a hardware problem cause my ipod just run low on battery and i restarted it and then It got stuck. xD

    - Yes, another computer may help.
    - Next try disconnecting from computer/charger and let the battery fully drain.  Then charge and try again.
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.  If defective, they will give you a replacement under your warranty.

  • Both of my computer and Itunes don't want to detect my Ipod-Touch-3G-32GB

    Something really annoying happened to me. I was updating my Ipod Touch 3G-32GB when I accidently pull off the USB link. Now both of my computer and Itunes don't want to detect my Ipod. What am I suppose to do ? [sorry for the mistakes, I'm French]
    PS: I can't recover my Ipod because the lock button is broken

    Try using this program to place the iPod in recovery mode:

  • Itunes 10.5 does not detect my ipod touch

    I recently update my itunes to 10.5 and when I connect my Ipod touch to my computer Ituens will not detected. My Ipod will show up on my computer but not on Itunes. Any ideas how can I fix this???
    I try restaring my Ipod, REinstalling Itunes but nothing work.. HELP PLEASE!!!!

    - Try moving the existing backup file to a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new file.  It is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
    - Directly download and install the iOS 5 using the information here:

    My itunes cannot detect my ipod touch 5g. How do I fix this?
    All I know is that my itunes has not been updated. If this is the problem, I tried to close and reopen the program but the "update" popup isn't popping up anymore and I'm not sure where I can manually update it myself.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    iTunes 10.7 or later7 (free download from www.apple.com/itunes/download)

  • HT1386 Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itune

    Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itunes, therefore i can't change playlists or add songs etc. Is this a fault with itunes as it was fine with the older version or is there something i can do. I'm not on IOS yet but would like to backup my phone first but can't do that atm due to not being able to view my phone on itunes!
    Thanks

    Hi, jodie_0182.
    I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See 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.

  • After itunes finishes restoring my ipod touch 8gb, itunes still says itunes has detected an ipod touch recovery mode. You must restore it before using it with itunes. and i dont knwo what to do

    after itunes finishes restoring my ipod touch 8gb, itunes still says itunes has detected an ipod touch recovery mode. You must restore it before using it with itunes. and i dont know what to do

    Are you sure it is 1043? I've never seen that error before. But you can try disabling your security software, connecting the phone to a USB port directly on the computer (not a hub), and trying to restore again.

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • I am not able to connect my ipod touch 4.3.5 to the computer.

    I am not able to connect my ipod touch 4.3.5 to the computer.
    It is not showing in Itunes. it is asking me to download new mobile app n asking
    me to redownload and install it. I did it and still not able to connect. My firewall is
    also off. So please help me.
    I m using itunes 10.5

    This usually indicates you really have a 2nd gen unit. Check the model number on the back. A1288 is 2nd gen. A1318 is 3rd gen.

  • Example: change artist name in itunes but doesn't change it on ipod touch 4g ios 5.0.1

    Hello, (sorry for bad english)
    So yesterday I updated itunes to 10.5 and updated my ipod touch 4g to ios 5.0.1.
    I restored my ipod so everything was lost. Now I put al my music back on but there is a problem.
    If for example change eminem to Eminem it changes the id3 tag. (example I select 10 songs with the names eminem Eminem e&m I change them all to Eminem)
    It works on itunes and I have a playlist with only Eminem.
    But on my ipod there are still the names of eminem Eminem e&m so why is that?
    1. I synced my ipod
    2. I didn't made the changes in libary but onder the ipod in the playlist (so really on the ipod, so you guys don't say you may made the changes in itunes libary. No I really made the changes on my ipod)
    3. I restarted my ipod several times but it didn't help
    ipod touch 4g IOS5.0.1 / windows 7 64bit
    Could someone help me? because it's annoying that in itunes it looks like artist : Eminem and on my ipod all those wierd names.
    I found a topic with the same problem but there was no sollution: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3409894?start=0&tstart=0
    Thank you,
    David

    I have a completely untested & unconfirmed hypothesis that "something" changed in the last iOS update with the way iTunes keeps track of which items are on the device. My guess is that it has something to do with being able to identify the same item whether on the device, in your library or in the cloud. Whatever the cause I found I needed to manually delete a bunch of albums on my iPad that were showing as dupes or without artwork and which didn't get resolved by syncing. Since I deleted them and resynced it has all been fine.  Remove any problem content from the device and resync.
    In the list type views swipe from right to left over the right hand side of an item (but keep away from the alphabet if it is showing down at the edge of the window). A red delete button should appear, tap to remove the item. In grid mode on an iPad holding your finger down on an item for about a second will produce a black & white cross at the top left, touch this to delete.
    If that still doesn't work, backup the device and then restore it.

    Is it compatible with your iPod Touch and its iOS version...
    If yes... Contact the Developer of the App.
