HT1923 ipod touch not recgonized by windows 7 but does in itunes

Windows 7 64bit does not recgonize iPod touch 5th generation but it does show up in iTunes. If I check "computer" it isn't there and I don't get that little usb thing in my taskbar.What gives? I also have a Nano 7th generation installed on iTunes too.The nano shows up in windows and iTunes. Is there some conflict with two iPod's running together on one computer, not running together just seperate? They both work in iTunes but only the iPod touch doesn't show up in windows.

try a different usb port and cable. try to unplug all other usb drives. update itunes to 11.0.5. restart the pc. temporarily disable firewall and all security software. if still not resolved completely remove itunes and apple software search HT1923 at apple.com/support
next download itunes at itunes.com

My iPod touch not recognized by Windows XP Serv.3?

What can I do that my iPod touch is recognized by Windows XP Service Pack 3 ?

IPod Touch not recognised on Windows 8 and will not appear as connected in iTunes.

Usually when I plug my iPod Touch (4th Gen) into my laptop (Windows 8) it appears automatically on iTunes for me to sync. However, when I tried to do this today, iTunes did not recognise that a device was connected and this was confirmed after I did a diagnostic test. Windows recognises that an iPod has been plugged in, however where it usually says "Alicia's iPod Touch", it just appears as "Apple iPod" and when I click on it, I cannot access any photos/videos that I have on my iPod. Any help would be very much appreciated if anybody know how I can fix this. Thank you.

Hello Ali_95

IPod Shuffle not recognized by windows 8 but is by Windows 7

iPod Shuffle not recognised by WIN 8 but is by WIN7
When connected via iTunes iPod Shuffle charge light does not come on and WIN8 Control Panel Hardware status indicates a problem with the iPod. WIN8 troubleshooting results in the following message:
Windows is uninstalling this device. (Code 21).
No such problems exist when iPod is connected in WIN7 via iTunes i.e. charge light came on and the device was recognised OK by WIN7Control Panel Hardware status.
Is there any fix to make WIN8 behave OK like WIN7 for iPod Shuffle?

first try reinstalling itunes on 8, also have all your files been moved over to win8 or maybe try restoring the shuffle

IPod Touch, not detected in Windows or iTunes...

First of all, hello to everyone...
i want to say that i read a lot EVERYWHERE about my issue and still i couldnt find a solution...
the problem is easy, i have a 3rd gen ipod touch, OS 4.2.1 now fully working... but, it's not detected in windows or itunes, as simple as that, and as u all have read in lots of other posts...
my ipod is now working because i took it to an apple store and they charged it in a MAC and they had no problem at all. the MAC detected the ipod, with all its content and my ipod's name...
but when i took it home -this has been hapenning since maybe... 5 MONTHS!-, i plug it in my PC and nothing happens...
ok, first of all, my spec... win vista home premium 64 bits, last version of itunes...
i tried ALL the solutions provided in APPLE official support page, and nothing happens... that means:
1- completely uninstall itunes and then reinstalling it... i ALSO FORMATED my entire hard drive twice!!!!
2- tried all USB ports and even an entirely different PC and nothing happened
3- bought 3 different IPOD to USB cables and nothing happened
4- tried setting ipod to restore, that way itunes SOMETIMES detected the ipod but i coulnt restore because of different error codes, so i had to take it several times to apple store to "unblock" it...
the only way it works -detection and charge- is with MAC computers or dock systems such as an iHome my gf has thats the way im charging it now, but otherwise it wont work...
i would really appreciate any help, since idont know what else to do!!
thx in advance!!

HI I was having some other problems getting my itouch to restore because it was not being recognized in itunes and kept erroring out. Now it has finally restored after I updated all kinds of drivers and removed and reinstalled itunes and apple software a million times,(yes this is all after installing itunes 8.1 and paying for an itouch upgrade as well) Now itunes says it cannot do anything with the ipod because it is getting an invalid response from the device. So it won't put anything back on my itouch or even show that I have plugged it in. I emailed tech support, If I find anything out I'll let you know, will you do the same for me?

Ipod touch not recognized by windows or itunes by one laptop fine on any other laptop

I have a laptop that runs windows 7, my ipod classic and nano all get recognized by computer and itunes. When I plug in my ipod touch, it isn't recognized by either, but when I plug it into another computer or laptop running windows 7, it is recognized. I have run all the recommended steps, reinstalled itunes several times, why won't this work?

Ipod touch not recognised in windows or itnes since updating to itunes9

Hi all,
I upgraded to itunes9 and now my ipod touch (2nd gen 16gb) is not recognised in either windows or itunes.
The ipod still charges via the USB lead so presmably there is nothing wrong there
So far I have tried the following
Uninstalled all itunes, apple stuff, bonjour etc
reinstalled
still same issue.. stopped and restarted apple mobile.. repaired apple mobile.. etc etc
rebooted a zillion times and spent the last 36 hours tearing my hair out all to no avail, its still not recognised.
At one stage i had a "device found" message, swiftly followed by a "device has malfunctioned" error message and back to square one again.
It's my understandin that I can't ring apple (unless I pay) as I have had the ipod since Jan 2009 so if anyone here could help or has any suggestions I wold really appreciate it.
In the device manager there is nothing ipod related in the Universal Serial Bus section or anwhere else in there, have tried it in every USB port.. it charges from them all.. but nothing else. I'm so frustrated
Sue.

This is happening to me also. After installing Windows 7-64, the sync with my Ipod freezes after a couple of songs transfers. Tried everything imaginable: Itunes reinstall, execute with compability to VIsta, energy safe mode off to USB ports/hubs, cable change, restore Ipod. I have a Acer Aspire M3641, lastest ITunes version, latest software on Ipod. Please Microsoft, Apple, Intel, whoever, WAKE UP !!! Code 0xE8000065

Ipod touch not recognized in windows after reset

I just reset my ipod touch in itunes and now it's not recognizing it. i was updating to 2.2.1 firmware and i never got past the update. it's hung on that screen that has the usb and cd. and windows keeps saying found new hardware and wants a driver. my ipod does not work now. how do i get windows to recognize it so i can finish the update.
I'm on xp 64 bit. and yes i'm using a hacked version of itunes. but it worked with this update before. i actually had the 2.2.1 firmware on it already but i needed to reset the ipod because i have a dead strip i was hoping a reset would fix. now nothing works.

I uninstalled iTunes, rebooted, and reinstalled. Now, the iPod is being recognized by iTunes. Hopefully, it will remain recognized the next time I reboot Windows. I'd hate to have to uninstall/reinstall each time.
But, I'm using a beta operating system, and knew the ramafications when I installed it. So, whatever happens, happens. Thank you for responding. Jd

IPod Touch Not Recognized in Windows 8.1 Preview

Hello. I installed Windows 8.1 Preview clean last week, and am now having problems getting my iPod Touch recognized within iTunes.
Normally, there is a button marked On This iPod, which I click, and then load music in that screen. That button is not appearing.
Furthermore, usually my iPod is listed somewhere in Windows Explorer. It is not listed. I've tried hooking the iPod Touch up to each of my USB ports. I also have a 4-port USB 3.0 hub and tried them. The device isn't being recognized.
I understand it's possible there could be conflicts between Windows 8.1 and some software. Windows 8.1 is, of course, still in the beta stages. But I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem, and if there might be a workaround for it.
Thank you! J. Danniel

Ipod touch not found in windows

I cannot find my ipod touch in windows explorer, disk management, safley remove hardware, or winamp. Please help. This is a fresh windows install, it said "installing device driver software" and then stated it was successful, but does not assign a drive letter to the Ipod touch. It reconizes it as a camera. This ipod touch has music on it (not a problem to format) and has been used before in itunes. Itunes will not be installed on this computer but I am wondering why the drivers arent installed so winamp can use it. Thanks for reading,

Figured it out, it's called MTP, only usable by itunes, great stuff.

IPod Touch not recognised by Windows 8 or iTunes whilst in Recovery mode.

Hello!
I recently updated my iTunes account and during the update on syncing my iPod touch (5th gen) my iPod put itself in to recovery mode and now both iTunes and my computer (in Windows 8) wont recognise my iPod.
I've followed the steps here> https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT204095
But I've had no success, the main stop I get to is when in Device Manager (where there are two entries under 'Other devices' both entries have a '!' in front of them and are listed as ' Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)') in Windows when I get to "Install disk" and input-ing the file Apple support suggests, an error message comes up saying that the folder I've selected doesn't contain a compatible software driver for my device.
On plugging in my iPod my computer makes the normal 3 pings and begins to charge with my ipod lighting up and saying to connect to iTunes, but Windows does not recognise it. I've tried my other USB ports, my other USB cable (all genuine Apple Parts) and I have tried another computer (also Windows) that did not recognise my iPod.
I have confirmed that Apple Mobile device is supported in the programs and have restarted it as well.
I've also removed and reinstalled iTunes and removed other 3rd party software (like the software for my mobile) as the article suggested. The only thing I haven't done is fully removed all my Apple Software entirely and then reloading it but I thought before I make this big leap I'd check if there were any other ideas from everyone.
Any ideas? I'm a bit stumped with this as it seemingly happened for no other reason then iTunes updating.
Thanks

Yes I've got the original USB that the iPod came with and I've tried all 3 of my USB ports and my other USB devices are working with no issue.
I've been through my antiVirus too and the internet firewall, disabling and then retrying, but with no changes.
I think I'm just delaying the inevitable of taking the time to uninstall everything and start again.
Thanks for the help!
