My new ipod nano is not recognized by i-tunes

Just purchased Nano 6th generation. I-tunes not recognizing. Have gone thru all steps provided by support. Help!
Thanks!

What shows up on the iPod's screen when you plug it in? Are you plugging the iPod into a USB port located directly on your PC versus a USB hub?
What happens if you reset the iPod with it still connected to your PC? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Volume down buttons long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Do you have any USB devices plugged in? If so, remove them all, minus your keyboard and mouse and reboot your PC. Then open iTunes and connect your iPod Nano once again.

I-Pod not recognized

Whenever I plug my I-Pod Photo into my laptop with Vista, I get told the USB Device is not recognized. Any ideas on what I can do? As of right now my laptop is the only computer I have at college, and I'd rather not have to wait until I can get my desktop sent.

See if any of these articles help.

I-pod not recognized by Computer

Hello, everyone. I've had my 80G classic for about two years and last week bad things happened. When I plugged in my I-pod it said that this device could work better using USB 2.0. I thought that this was weird but didn't think much of it.( My I-pod had been using USB 2.0 for a few months on this computer) then the next day. It stopped connecting at all and says that this device can not be recognized. I have turned off my PC and tried pulling the power cord out. I've tried reinstalling my drivers. The funny thing is that I can still charge my I-pod with fire-wire and it works normal besides this.

That sounds like something strange may have happened to your USB drivers, lichu.
In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

I-Pod not recognized by laptop

Dear All,
I use my i-pod as an archive flash disk. I tried to plug it yesterday to different computers, and none have recognized it. I have checked USB ports and all are fine. While not recognized the i-Pod is still charging (using power from lap top) which seems to indicate that cable is fine. What to do? I am really stuck and I desesperatly need some of the data on the pod. Tks for any tips/solutions. F

I POD not charging when I tunes recognise it

Hello,
Just bought a video I-POD 60 GIG.
I installed the CD, connected the device and left it charging for 24 hours. Then I created a library synchronized it and start enjoying the music.
I let the battery run just to see how long those would last.
I then plugged the i-pod again. Here what happens:
1) Plug I pod
2) Do not disconnect warning pops up and battery start charging
3) I tune starts
4) I tunes recognize I-pod and synchronies music battery still charging
5) Synchronization end and Battery STOP CHARGING
Why batteries stop charging? Has anybody experienced something similar?
I run Win 2000 on a dell D810 laptop. I have 4 USB 2 ports if I choose not to start I-tune automatically when I connect I-pod this charges without any problem.
I uninstalled I tunes re-installed it but no success.
Any help appreciated.
Thank you
Enrico

Thank you for your reply, but since when this happened the battery status icon was rd I would assume the battery is not fully charged and should start charging.
Also when the I-pod goes to sleep there is no sign of battery icon.
Might be an I-tune bug?
It may be the battery is charged up already. When iTUnes gets done syncing the iPOd it goes back to the main menu on the iPod and there will be a baby sized icon in the top right corner with a battery and a lighting bolt on it, after awhile the iPod goes into a semi sleep state this is when the battery icon will cover the screen much like the "DO NOT DISCONNECT" Icon http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/anatomy/3/

Shuffle not recognized by i-tunes

My daughter's shuffle is no longer recognized by i-tunes. When iI look in MY COMPUTER shuffle shows up as "removable disk". Any ideas

I have the very same problem and I am discovering a trend here. I would like some accountability from Apple on this. Its not a small issue- this is so basic. iTunes simply does not show my iPod - and I've owned 4 of them! I cant see a pattern to it but its really flaky, esp. for the worlds best selling MP3 device it is shameful really. That and Apples support is one of the weakest I've seen.

I pod not recognized by Windows XP

I have an IPOD Touch 2nd generation. I'm trying to connect it via USB to a WinXP box. The USB port is enhanced, is operation, but does not detect the IPOD. Any suggestions?

See:

I would start by:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Does it charge?
I suspect that enhanced mean USB 2 port.

My I-pod (4th gen) is not recognized in I-tunes or computer.

I have tried all the troubleshooting options and can't get it to work.
Have 2 other I-pods that will detect - a nano and an older touch. I would appreciate any help.
I'm not sure what else to try.
