HT1386 Why wont itune acknowledge that my ipod is plugged in!?

I recently downloaded the latest update to itunes on my laptop and now it wont acknowledge that my ipod is plugged in and therefore it now wont sync. My laptop recognises it is plugged in as it comes up with an 'apple ipod' icon. Any one know how i can get it to work again? I uninstalled itunes and re-installed it and that didnt work so now im stuck!!

See TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5.

  • Why wont itunes recognize my phone when i plug it in

    when i plug my phone into the computer nothing happens and it is not recognized

    Do one or more of the following:
    > Restart your PC/Mac OS
    > Uninstall and Reinstall iTunes
    > Reset your iDevice
    > Get Lastest iOS Update (depends on what generation)
    If you haven't check.... go to where you can see your hard drives (the place where you can access any USB flash drives, disc drives, hard drives.....) and see if your iDevice will show..... If it does..... go to iTunes
    If you have iTunes 10.7..... look at your left hand side (the side bar).....
    If you have iTunes 11..... look at the top right hand corner.....
    BTW..... im not a Mac user so I'm not sure if any of this helps.... I'm a Windows person.....

  • Why wont iTunes allow me to copy/sync a song from my iPod?

    Why wont iTunes allow me to copy/sync a song from my iPod? I have a song on my iPod that i want on my laptop to add to my iPhone, but i can't sync it. I did not purchase it via iTunes.

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The ONLY exception is itunes purchases.
    As the song came from your computer in the first place, it should still be there and be included in your regular backup of your computer.
    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.

    I recently dug out my old 160gb iPod Classic. Every time I connect it to iTunes, the program freezes and/or crashes. My computer recognizes that the iPod is plugged in, (it's accesible under "My Computer") but iTunes doesn't acknowledge it, at all. I've tried every single solution I've seen, and none of them work. I know the Classic is outdated, but my other iPod doesn't have nearly as much room. Can anyone help with this?

    After updating my iTunes it no longer acknowledges that my iPod or iPhone is connected so I can't update my music.. I have followed all of these steps and everything is working fine but this new version of iTunes isn't recognizing my devices. Any advice?

    I have the same problem. Running Win 8 64Bit, updated to latest ITunes and now will not recognize phone or pad. Followed all advice from Apple (uninstall/restart/re-install, all in exact order) ... nothing. Spoke with Apple tech and walked through the whole process, but no resolution. Tech was trying to be helpful but has no way of addressing issue.

    Why wont itunes download on my laptop running on windows vista, keep getting Windows error127, can anyone help please this is driving me insane, tried 9 times already without
    success.

    Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    (The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
    Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
    If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

    Hello, Im trying to update my ipod 3g 4.2.1 to ios 5.0.1.When I try to update,itunes says that 4.2.1is the lastest sofware for my ipod.I also tried to do it manually(shift+restor)itunes says that the"ipod could not be restore because the fimwire isnot compatible" I need some help on this.

    The messages are saying you have a 2G iPOd.  Those canonly go to 4.2.1.  Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPOd. A 32 can be either.  To further identify yours:

  • My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data

    My itunes says that my ipod is synced with another library when it is not and cannot update or sync without wiping it and all its data
    Can anyone help me

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    All media content will be erased during the first sync, but you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
