I have a 80GB Ipod and it is not recognized by itunes. It seems to have occured after upgrading to itunes 10.

I have a 80GB Ipod. Its been working fine for the past couple years, unitl now. I haven't downloaded any new music on to the Ipod in months. So I usually charged it directly from an outlet. I updated the itunes just recently, so I think it maybe the itunes itself. I plugged the Ipod onto my computer like always and it read connected, but it never opened up the Itunes like it usually does. Opened Itunes manually and my Ipod didn't show up on the device tab or anywhere else. Tried to reset it...that didn't work. Re-downloaded Itunes, that didn't work either. Once it showed up on Itunes, so tried restoring, but it said that it could not work,because it showed the Ipod as being used somewhere else? At that time it showed up on my computer as a device with a removable storage. Not sure what else to do. Do anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks But all those options assume that my IPOD is being seen by windows.
I get this error when I connect and the software is trying to install the drivers

I have a macbook purchased in 2009. I just purchased a new ipod and am in a loop of updates that seems to have no end. Do I need snow leopard? Will that then let me use the latest itune update?

You need to buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store. You don't need Mountain Lion.

TS1398 I have an Iphone 5 and it will not connect to any WIFI networks - I have tried following the steps above (including reseting network settings) but it just says 'incorrect password' every time. How can I resolve this?

you have definitely tried the correct steps, all you would need to do now is a back up & restore to factory settings. If after that the issue remains then you would most likely need a replacement unit.

There is No option to restore previous session when I go into History. There is No Recent history in the History. It will show my history if I click on show History, but it won't restore it!

Hi StuckAtHomeMom
try in PRIVACY panel to set : Firefox will: Use custom settings for history and :
Uncheck: [ ] "Always use private browsing mode"
Uncheck: [ ] "Clear history when Firefox closes"
check everything else and in Accept third-party cookies, set Keep until: they expire
thank you

I have MA147X 60GB ipod and it is not being recognised by windows or Itunes

I have a G1 IPod and it will not charge. Is this normal?

I need help.

My 2nd gen iPod Classic battery died years ago but still works when connected to a power source. If yours lasted this long, that's amazing.
As planb77 mentions... time for a new battery.
You can get an iPod nano for as little as $49. That's probably less then a new battery for the G1 iPod.

TS1398 I have followed all instructions and still can not connect to my WiFi. We have 3 other devices in the house that connect automatically. Help.

I have followed all of the suggestions to troubleshoot the inability to connect to the WiFi in my home. We have 3 other Apple devices that connect automatically. What do I do next?

in Settings>WiFi - you've got it turned on right ?
Do you see your network in the list "Choose a Network" ?

My iPod 4G will not sync when it is recognized in iTunes, and it will not play some songs that are already on the iPod, and it is not recognized on iTunes now either.

Hi,
You can update the itunes software and check, that should work.If not you can also try to reset the ipod.

Does the device show up in Windows Explorer when connected?
Have you tried going into Control Panel > Programs & Features > iTunes > Repair?
Have you proved the cable with a different device, or the device's connectivity with a different computer?

I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes using a designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email account. How can I transfer my ipod to the same account as the iphone

I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID. So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account. Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

I have an older ipod, and it won't let me download apps. It says my iPod isn't compatible?

I have an older ipod, and it won't let me download apps. It says my iPod isn't compatible? Then when i plug my iPod onto iTunes it says it's fully updated.

You don't say which version of iPod you have but apparently it's fully updated to it's capability yet not to the level that newer iPods can go. Some apps do require the latest IOS level.

I have a new ipod and when I sign in to Words with Friends it says that user name is already in use. How can I continue using the same user name with a different ipod?

I have a new ipod and added all my apps to it. When I sign in to Words with Friends it says that "user name is already in use" because it is linked to my old ipod. How can I use the same user name with my new ipod?
