HT1386 My ipod touch will not sync to itunes after installing version 11.  My computer recognizes that it is connected, but itunes, media moneky, and sharepod would not recognize it.  I tried every suggestion apple and other community folks suggested-no l

itunes diagnostics only finds that no ipod is connected when it really is.  I have tried different cords, unistalled/reinstalled itunes, erased my ipod started over, restarted computer, etc.  My ipod is useless now that I cannot sync it wth itunes and there is now no music on it.  Its a paper weight now.  All of the posts I have read have no solution for this.  I would love to go back to itunes 10 because none of this occured until I downloaded that version.

  • My iPod touch will not play or charge on my non apple dock since the software was updated,why is this?

    My iPod touch used to play and charge in my non apple dock but now will do neither. Looking back it appears to have stopped working when the software was updated to 5.1. Why is this?

    There are two sides to this.  On the one hand, an Apple upgrade bricked your dock and that bites. On the other hand, Apple can't be expected to design around 3rd party devices that don't follow the specifications. We don't know why Apple made this particular change that bricked your dock so it is difficult to judge whether or not there was a good reason behind it.  We also do not know why AIVN didn't follow the specification but it was probably cost related.
    Note: If you sell the iPod, you'll still have a non-functioning dock.  You can sell it to someone with an older iPhone or iPod that can't be updated to iOS 5.1.

  • IPod Touch will not charge or start- tried must of the ideas from other discussions

    Hi there,
    I tried holding down the home button at the same time as the power button for several seconds/minutes and it will not respond.
    I used my iPod touch 2 weeks a go. I did not used it since than and now it will not respond to anything. I tried plungung it to the computer and nothing.
    I have an iPhone, iPad and 2 iPods so I know it is not the charger (I have tried all 4 of them).
    Any other alternatives?

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch no longer syncing with iTunes?

    Mac OS X v10.4.11
    - all software up to date
    - iTunes 9.2.1 (5); no later updates available on this machine
    iPod Touch v3.1.3
    This iPod Touch used to sync to iTunes just fine and dandy. Now it won't. I'm seeing that *now* in order to sync I have to upgrade (i.e. get a new mac) to v10.5?
    What gives?
    Both used to sync fine and now they don't. Did Apple pull a fast one on me?

    But my point is that one day it worked fine, and now it doesn't. Why would it stop working, if it once was supported? Did Apple push an update to my iPod which made it not supported by my machine? If so, that's pretty low.
    If I buy a device and it works fine with my mac, it should stay working fine with my mac.

  • My new ipod touch will not sync to my dlink.

    My new Ipod touch will not sync to my dlink.  My two laptops, and Ipad are already on.  I have tried resetting and still it will not sync.

    What happens when you try to connect to the Wi-Fi? Any error messages? Have you tried a hard reset of the iPod?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Otherwise, work through the remaining troubleshooting suggestions in this Apple support document.

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with Itunes 12.1.1.4 64 bit

    I have recently updated itunes and on the back of doing so my Ipod touch will not sync my library. The Ipod itself is a couple of years old but using iOS 6.1.6.
    I have deleted and re-installed Itunes. I have wiped my Ipod to start again. I have set it to sync over Wi-fi and nothing has worked. I physically plug the Ipod in and it gets detected. If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.
    I have set automatically download Itunes songs etc etc etc and absolutely nothing seems to get it to sync!
    Help!

    You said " If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.".
    How many steps are completed? What is listed in the status bar of iTunes when it stops?
