I Pod Nano plugged in but is not recognized...help

So i just recently bought a 4 gig i pod nano and put in the cd to download the updater software and all that garbage. I already had itunes 7 downloaded on my computer but the disk that came with the ipod nano had itunes 6 on it (for what reason i dont know) and thats where everything went downhill. Previously (before i purchased the nano) i had an ipod mini connected to my Itunes 7 and since i downloaded itunes 6 which came with my nano it wouldnt even let me open itunes. so i redownloaded itunes 7 and plugged in my nano and it didnt show up but when i plug in my mini that shows up. i dont know what to do...i think it has something to do with my music library but not sure...let me know
dell inspiron 6000 Windows XP

Been having the same problem with my new 4G Nano, the computer just wont recognise it, but my old Ipod is fine.
But by chance i had a USB memory stick in the other USB port and the Nano suddenly shows up on my desktop and iTunes 7!! Still won't work without a memory still plugged in as well. But I can at least get music onto it now.

try safe removal option. my computer says "generic volume is running" or something like that, and then it will be recognized by itunes. itunes 7 for some reason recognizes my nano faster than itunes 6. can't figure out why since the rest of itunes 7 stinks.

Charger plugged in, but macbook 'not charging'--help! *gulp*

HELP guys, I'm freaking out *+big time+* I just noticed that when I got my macbook plugged in, it's not charging. The icon is the one you got when it's plugged in (with the little fork-shaped thing in the middle), but instead of it saying 'charging' like when the battery isn't full, or 'charged', when it is, it just says 'Not Charging'. It's like it can see the magsafe connector inside, but the juice isn't coming through to the battery, even though the computer itself is powered by the charger since when I click on the power symbol I get 'Power source: Power adapter'.
Also, the magsafe connector itself isn't lit. It used to be green for a bit, but a much weaker green than normal, and before that it wasn't even lit--I've tried with three different wall outlets, one of which was outside my house where I usually use it (it was in a starbucks). Also, when I disconnected the magsafe to get a reading for the battery, it was only 1:35, even though the magsafe light was green (albeit a weak green).
If it matters, I'm running 10.5.3. The macbook is still fairly new, bought mid-december, all updates current as I got it set to checking daily and install the minute I get the notice. Any ideas what could be the matter? Please tell me what it could be if you know, because I am getting really scared something might be wrong! And the worse is we don't have real applestores where i live, so I can't take it there!glp

UPDATE
Got mine working! I went back and cleaned the magsafe connectors again .
read tech doc
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303240
Even though mine looked clean and not bent, one of the pins must have been pushed in (which would explain power but no charging)
Also, it took me three times cleaning (I used compressed air, but they say use a soft toothbrush) before it worked for good (the orange light would come on but go out in 5 minutes)
I now have a full charge!
Hope this helps

My I-pod shows up on my computer but is not recognized under devices in I-Tunes, any suggestions?

My I-pod shows up on my computer but is not recognized under devices in I-Tunes, any suggestions?

Hey corky60,
I'd go ahead and give the following troubleshooting steps a shot:
1. Try the iPod troubleshooting assistant:
2. Restart the iPod Service
3. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
4. Empty your Temp directory and restart
5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
6. Change your iPod's drive letter
7. Remove and reinstall iTunes
8. Disable conflicting System Services and Startup Items
9. Update, Reconfigure, Disable, or Remove Security Software
10. Deleting damaged or incorrect registry keys
You can read more about each step in detail in this article:
iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363
I'd start at the top and work through the steps until iTunes recognizes your iPod nano.
Take care,
David

Artists on new I-pod Nano looks at Album Artists not Artists so a whole load of Artists from complilation albums sit e.g. in a Various Artists bucket - how do I sort this

Artists on new I-pod Nano looks at Album Artists not Artists so a whole load of Artists from complilation albums sit e.g. in a Various Artists bucket - how do I sort this

I think it looks at the Artist field, if Album Artist is blank. So, for the songs on affected albums, you can try removing the "Various Artists" entry for Album Artist field (in iTunes). Try this on one affected album, to see if it does what you want.
NOTE: In iTunes, you can select multiple songs at the same time (such as all songs on an album), do a Get Info (right-click selection - Get Info) on selection, and remove the entry for Album Artist for all selected songs at the same time, from the Info window.

IPhone 4 registers that it is getting a charge (vibrates when plugged in) but is not charging

My iPhone 4 registers that it is getting a charge (vibrates when plugged in) but is not charging. The charging display shows the fully charged symbol and not the charging symbol. I have tired charging using two different cords and into both my computer and an outlet.

Thanks Jennifer. I have done some searching and nothing firm came up. I have also tried a hard resent, both with it plugged in and without. I have an appointment at the apple store tomorrow. I too think a restore or new battery is in my future. Thanks again!

TS3499 My 2012 Macbook Pro recognizes that it is plugged in but says not charging.

My 2012 Macbook Pro recognizes that it is plugged in but says not charging. The LED light on the L shaped power adapter is not illuminated. I've tried cleaning it, updating my software, everything on this Apple support page: Portables: L-shaped MagSafe power adapter does not charge computer and LED indicator light does not illuminate
Is there anything else I can try before I have to take it into the Apple Store? I live in a rural area and it is about a 3 hour trip to the nearest Apple Store.

I have also reset the SMC with no avail. :/

The model 2,1 MacBook has an easily removable battery. You can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay. Every MacBook from 2006 through Mid 2009 except the Late 2008 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 and 2010 White Unibodies use the same A1185 battery.

Or for $129 from The Apple Store http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA566LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Removing the battery:
Shut down the computer. Disconnect any cords connected to the computer.
Turn the computer over.
Locate the battery latch on one side of the battery.
Use a coin to turn the latch a quarter-turn clockwise. The battery should pop up slightly.
Lift the battery out.
Installing the battery:
Place the right side of the battery into the battery compartment at an angle, as shown below.
Gently press the left side of the battery down until it sits flat.
While holding the battery down, use a coin to turn the latch a quarter-turn counter-clockwise. The battery should lock into place.
Note: Keep in mind that once the new battery is inserted, you will need to press the power button to start up the computer.
