My iPad isn't recognizing my airport base. My laptop is connected. I've tried a hard power down of the iPad and my iTunes software is up to date.

My iPad isn't recognizing my airport base. My laptop is connected. I've tried a hard power down of the iPad and my iTunes software is up to date.

If all of the network information is entered correctly in the iPad, some users are finding they have to power down the wireless and then power back up for their iPad to connect.

Ipod 5th Gen 60gig isn't recognized by Windows XP

Hi,
My 60 gig 5th gen Ipod isn't recognized at all by my PC. I tried different usb ports already, and in all of them when i connect the Ipod the PC just makes the typical sound when coneenecting any usb device and after that it doesn't shows the ipod neither in iTunes neither in My Computer but in the iPod screen appears te forbidden sign with the message "do not disconnect" and the ipod normally charges.
See ya.

See if any of these articles help.

Lumia 1020 isn't recognized by Windows 8.1

I just installed Windows 8.1 and when I plug in my Lumia 1020, it isn't recognized. In Device Manager it shows up under "Other Devices" as "Nokia Lumia 909 (RM-877)". I understand that the 909 and the 1020 are the same so no mystery there. When I right click and tell it to update the drivers, it says that there are no drivers available.
I read in another thread where someone was having a similar problem and powering off the phone and then reconnecting it via the USB cable seemed to cause it to be recognized. I am not having any success doing that. I have gone through the steps listed by Microsoft also without any luck.
I also have a laptop running Windows 7 and my phone is recognized by that computer without any trouble at all. So, I don't *think* it is a hardware problem.
I went so far as to re-install my OS. I patched it, updated the BIOS and didn't connect or install anything else (besides the patches) before connecting my 1020. Once I hooked up my 1020, still nothing. Can't update drivers from the internet or from the downloaded drivers.
What is going on?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Look at other devices that are not loaded correctly. Not the USB
If your operating system did not come with Windows Media Player, install the Media Feature Pack for your version of the operating system.

Use the USB cable that came with the phone.
Connect the phone to the PC. Turn it all the way off, hold power button and slide the screen down. The phone will turn back on and it will be detected, drivers should load.
You should see it in windows explorer. It should install in 'portable devices' in the device manager.

5th gen Video 30G isn't recognized by windows XP help!

I have a 30G video with the stock USB that has never had an issue until recently when i got the new iT7. The problem is that the iPod isn't recognized by my computer at all. when i connect it it brights up for two seconds as if i woke it up and then the light shuts off. it's still on but its not recognized. Neither iT or my computer. does anyone have anything to say about this or is having the same problems?
Windows XP

New IPOD. Downloaded SW from web. iT7. Neither computer nor iT will consistently recognize ipod. backlight flashes on and off intermitently, and apparently randomly, when connected. Has "do not disconnect" message most of the time. Reset lasts 1-2 seconds. Need to shut computer down and then go thru ipod reset dance to disconnect and do 5 "R"s again (and again). Could it be a factory bad cable??
Surely not! And..where the heck would I get another to test with...oh, buy one, no doubt? I see a lot of other folks with the same problem. Apple, are you listening?
Jobs, get it done! Anyway, been thru a lot of complaints here and as it says above, problem is NOT resolved.

IPad isn't recognized by iTunes or Explorer

I recently updated my iTunes to 10.5, and before this, all of my devices synced up fine. However, after this update, neither my iPod Touch nor my iPad are even recognized by iTunes OR Explorer. They show up as "Unspecified" in my Devices though. I've already tried all the fixes recommended on the Apple site, but nothing works so far. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who has the problem, so, has anyone discovered a good fix yet?

Might be the drivers. I know my computer reinstalled both device drivers when i upgraded my touch and ipad to os5. If you haven't done so already, try going into your windows programs menu in the control panel and uninstalling everything apple. Then reinstall itunes 10.5 and plug your devices in and see if the drivers reinstall. It took me 3 hours to upgrade both my touch and ipad, downloading the update, backing up, installilng it and then having the drivers reinstall.

New iPad isn't recognized by macbook pro

help. i just downloaded Lion. Nice of them to say that MS and Adobe products won't work anymore. Anyway, my new ipad is not recognized on my macbook pro. It says it doesn't see a camera. Any suggestions?

Here's the troubleshooter:

It seems like the major clue above is to disconnect other devices from your USB port(s), and use a USB port directly on your Mac.

IPad 2 Not Recognized by Windows (but iTunes is fine)

I've read through a lot of threads and tried everything in this post: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
I have an issue that doesn't seem to fit into anything I'm finding. Probably easiest to break it down into chunks...
I have an iPhone 3GS and an iPad 2
iTunes sees both devices without an issue, syncs them, etc. etc. so obviously the device is working, as is the USB connection.
When I plug the iPhone in, as per the settings I've chosen in Win7, I am prompted to import the photos on it.
When I plug the iPad in, Windows gives me an error that it doesn't recognize the device (something is wrong blah blah blah).
I am using the same cable, plugged into the same port, as when the iPhone is plugged in.
Again, iTunes sees the iPad and works flawlessly with it.When it's plugged in, Device Manager shows an unknown USB device. When I look at the hardware ID, it doesn't give me the whole "zeros" thing, it just says USB/UNKNOWN.
I'm at a loss here. Help?!

Glad you got it fixed - and I wasn't trying to be a wise guy.
It just seemed logical to me that if iTunes recognized the iPad and the iPhone - but they didn't show un in your Windows Devices Manager or Explorer or whatever it's called - that it was probably a Windows thing.
Now you must truly be a HappyMommy!

My ipod shuffle isn't recognized by windows.

When I connect my shuffle to my computer, it runs "autorun" indefinately. I can't run restore to fix it because the updater doesn't recognize the drive. In MyComputer, the drive shows up, but when I click it, MyComputer freezes and I have to use task manager to shut it down. The shuffle won't play any songs at all. I have reloaded iTunes, iPod, and tried everything on the web page. Any suggestions? Help.
Windows XP
Windows XP

Can't say why XP doesn't recognize your Shuffle, but have had experience with the flashing amber light. I purchased the wall charger and the flashing stopped and the Shuffle received a full charge.
Come to think of it I had trouble getting my Win2K machine to recognize the Shuffle. After purchasing the charger there has been no problem having the Shuffle recognized by the computer. This makes me suspect that the problem you're having isn't because of XP, rather it is because your Shuffle isn't sufficiently charged.

IPad air not recognized in Windows 7: Error: \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Bonjour Service\Parameters. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.

Hello everyone.. I recently bought iPad air and I am trying to connect it to my windows 7 notebook. And so I am trying to install itunes in windows 7. But I keep on getting the error message:
"\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Bonjour Service\Parameters. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel."
I already did this: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/739820.aspx that was given in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1558225?tstart=0
But unfortunately I still get the error message during installation. If I ignore that and continue installation, iTunes is installed and seems to work. But my windows does not recognize my iPad. I read somewhere that iPad driver is in iTunes.
Please help... thank you very much.

IPad 2 not recognized by Windows XP

Apple program, "Apple Mobility Program", which installs with iTunes, does not work in Windows XP(32 bit), and only after multiple installations and reinstallations in Windows 7 (64 bit). Is there a useful update???

5th gen with video Windows XP Pro

I have kinda of the same problem but I think mine is worse. See i just got my new ipod back from the ipod service thing so i plug it into my wall charger first to get it all the way charged before i connect to my comp. After i get it fully charged i go and plug in into my usb device with the apple connector and as soon as i do i get the usb device not recognized, but it gets better at that same time my ipod's backlight wont come on and theres a message on the iPod screen but i cant read it because of the back light is off, then i notice that there is a lowbattery sign on the upper corner(i think it was the right) then it shutsdown and now i cant get it to charge in my wall charger or my computer and it still says usb device not recognized when its plugged in.
And also as a side note it wont even say usb device not recognized when i plug it into the back of my comp its like i didnt even plug it into the back
So if anyone could help me it would be most appreciated, and im shure no one has had this mutch bad luck with an ipod

Old iPod isn't recognized by Windows Vista

Hey Everyone,
My girlfriend has a second generation iPod, which is around 5 years old. She didn't use iTunes before getting a new laptop(which runs Vista), but has now decided to try it out. When I plug in the iPod a message comes up saying "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computor has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message." It recommends to reconnect, which I have done, and then it recommends "replacing" the device. She doesn't want to have to get a new iPod if at all possible. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

iPod is not recognized properly by computer when USB drivers are not installed properly or are out of date

Need help! nano isn't recognized by windows!

I hooked my brand new ipod nano up to my computer and it appears to be charging. I have done the 5 Rs one hundred times each. It shows up in the device manager with a yellow question mark and exclamation point. When I plug it in, it makes the little dinging noise, and sometimes asks if I want to install the new hardware, but it can't find the driver to install it. It doesn't appear under My COmputer and if I open iPod updater, it says "plug in an ipod to update it."
I have read that sometimes it needs formatting, but under properties it says it is formatted for windows, and I can't find it in My Computer to format it.
It is recognized by other computers. I'm so frustrated! Whats going wrong?
nano Windows XP

try these steps to format the ipod then restore it with the updater
open computer management
double-click Storage
click Disk Management
choose the ipod in the volumes listed here
right click and hit format
choose fat32 for format
and leave the options unchecked and allocation at default
format
afterwards restore with the updater

BOOTCAMP partition isn't recognized during Windows 7 installation

I am using a 13" Macbook Pro (Mid-2010) model running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and using Boot Camp Assistant 3.0.4 to install Windows 7 Home Premium OEM on my Intel X25-M G2 80GB SSD. The problem I am having is that once I partition my drive and start the Windows 7 install the BOOTCAMP partition I made is not recognized by the install process (or any other partitions on my SSD for that matter). I know that the partitioning worked because when I boot back to OS X it is recognized. At this point I have reformatted the SSD and done a clean install of OS X and I am still encountering the same problem during the Boot Camp process. Has anyone encountered this same problem and found a solution for this extremely frustrating process? Help would be much appreciated!

My guess, and there were threads back when Intel X25-M came out, it is a firmware compatibility issue. I thought by now and with current new units, it was a think of the past.
I'll let you wade through the links, threads, and tips:
http://www.bing.com/search?q=macbookWindows+7+IntelX25-M
The new firmware fixed my issue.
You should contact Intel support for a fix.

However, it may not solve.

If anything, I would 'move' (ie, clone) OS X to another drive. Catch-22: you need Windows usually to apply any firmware update to SSD (and other devices).
80GB is really small. Especially for an SSD and Windows 7 - over provisioning, garbage collection, etc will make for a tight squeeze. Windows 7 on SSD uses 30GB and then there is page file, hibernation, 9GB for SP1 (due soon), and that is moving temp folders to another (mechanical) drive.
80GB = 72GB user partition and you want to leave 20% free for each OS. OS X needs 20-30GB plus free space as well.
