  • Can I get my computer to recognize my iPod w/out losing music???

    An iPod (60GB) given to me by a friend, with about 500 songs on it, will not be recognized by my laptop (I get the iPod Updated launched and the only option it gives me is to reformat). I use another iPod (mini) on this laptop too. How can I get my computer to recognize it, or is it possible, without reformatting and losing all of the music already on it? I don't have any of the paperwork / drivers / cds that came with it, but it is still under warranty (88 days left). Please help!!! Is there a way to get the music saved off of it before I reformat it?

  • I can't get my computer to recognize my iPod.

    Hi everyone. Ok, here's my problem: I had this iPod [not video, just photo] and it died, so I got an iPod Video with my guarantee. But when I connected it to the computer, the computer did not recognize it. I've tried everything but it doesn't matter what I do, neither my computer or the iTunes program will recognize it. What can I do? Please help me. Any help will be thanked and used.

  • I can't get my computer to recognize my Ipod nano

    I'll plug my Ipod up and it says it's charging but it isn't showing up on itunes..it won't show Summer's Ipod when I plug it up

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
    Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

  • I can not get my itunes to recognize my ipod touch, I called support and when i found out there was a charge I politely said no thanks and hung up. now I can't even get the itunes to download!!

    I have tried since Chrismas to use my Ipod touch and have not been able to!  I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes more often then I care to admit!  I called support and when I found out there is a charge ($59.95) I declined and hung up.  I now can't even download itunes!  I guess I find that a little fishy.  I was so happy with this gift and now I am so frustrated I am about to return it and never purchase another apple product again! I have gotten nothing but the run around when trying to get assistance for a very expensive music player!   HELP PLEASE

  • How do i get my computer to recognize my ipod touch?

    I have windows 7 and have no problem with my IPhone yet when I connect a new generation 5 ipod touch I hear the tone from the computer as if it is connected but I do not see it in the windows explorer or on I Tunes. Why can I not see it?

    Do you have iTunes version 11 on your computer?
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Why won't windows 7 recognize my ipod touch after the latest updates?

    I have tried everything in the apple support links and nothing is working. My computer used to recognize the ipod as a device and in itunes but now it is not recognized anywhere it only charges. Is there anything that was done in the last set of windows updates that is making this happen? How do I get my ipod to be recognized again?

    You tried everything here:

  • ITunes won't recognize my iPod touch after a failed update--my iPod is stuck on the "plug into itunes" screen

    Yesterday, I had bought myself an ipod touch and it was working just fine until today when I went along with an itunes prompt to update my ipod.  It failed to update and now won't recognize it, I checked to see if it was recognized by my computer--and it is, but a thing pops up that says "access denied" whenever I try to click on it.  The screen on my ipod is stuck wanting me to connect to itunes.
