IPod acting weird with windows

When I first plug in the iPod in, windows saids that it doesn't reconize the usb device, but iTunes will see the iPod and it is also seen in My Computer. When I go to transfer a playlist from iTunes to the iPod, the iPod gets rejected sfter sbout 10 to 15 secs.

Restore solved it.

  • IPod acting weird with Podcasts.

    Over the last few weeks, my iPod has had issues with podcasts. When i have a new podcast on iPod, the blue dot is displayed next to it. However, recently the blue dot had appeared next to old podcasts/vidcasts which i have already heard.
    When i look at them in iTunes, they appear normally, with a playcount of 1 or above, and no blue dot.
    Anybody know whats going on?

  • Will my ipod classic work with windows 8

    I am finally updating my Windows XP desktop to a Windows 8 laptop.  Will my ipod classic work with Windows 8?  I've seen a ton of problems from other users with regard to compatibility.

    Do yourself a big favor. Switch to Windows 7. (Or buy a Mac.)

  • Will Ipod Touch work with Windows 8

    Will IPod Touch work with Windows 8?  Why is that not even a listed option in the help feature?

    Apple has just not got around to revising the documentation to reflect Win 8. Just use instructions for Win 7

  • Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

    I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

    Hello Ian,
    Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
    Thanks - Genevieve

  • To connect my ipod to itunes with windows 8 not see the option to add to add songs from itunes library. As I can solve this?

    Since you can only sync your iPod with one computer at a time, you'll need to copy the contents currently on your iPod to your new iTunes library first.  See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to accomplish this task.

  • IPod Classic - ok with Windows, not with iTunes

    Hi,
    I have a Classic 160GO iPod.
    Suddenly this problem appeared :
    - no music or pictures were recognized by my iPod, but the disk space was used for "Other"
    - this iPod is not known with iTunes
    - This iPod is known as a removable hard disk, via Windows 7 (Main computer), Windows XP (secondary computer), a linux thing (a friend computer).
    1. I already checked this iPod with the diagnostics mode (see https://discussions.apple.com/message/19048752#19048752)
    result is :
    - reallocs : 0
    - Pending sectors : 32
    My understanding is that my iPod hard disk is ok and valid.
    2. I followed most of the recommended way to repaird the iPod as per Support (8 out of 10)
    NOthing is working.
    I confirm I have installed the latest version of iTunes.
    3. I read the following page : https://discussions.apple.com/message/19158071#19158071 to find the relevant firmware.
    But the iPod Classic 160GO is not in the list.
    My questions
    --> Do you have an idea to solve my problem ?
    --> What could happend i I format my iPod with windows ? It would be only a hard disk after, wouldn't it ?
    --> I f I format, is there a solution to re-install the iPod software (= firmware ?)
    Thank you for your help.

    The iPod hardisk is  looks new from the Reallocs and ON Hours, but, it is rebooting more to get the correct spin for data verification, causing tImeouts,  so the Pending Sector will increase.
    There maybe something, near the iPod environment, that is causing the drive to fail, and overheat, if it has not already been damaged, or maybe it is just one Hardisk, that slipped through poor quality control.
    You can bring the Retract, Realloc and pending number low, by doing low level format, see this article, but your problem of Hardisk rebooting to find a good cluster, wont go away
    Just my thoughts.
    Magnets are the primary cause of hardisk crashes,  I would also suspect, using your handphone, while it is near the iPod would also be bad, see the YouTube video on hardboiled eggs using handphone.

  • Does the Ipod Nano work with Windows XP SP1???

    I studied the system requirements for the ipod nano and there was written, that I need a WinXP with SP2 for it.

  • IPod Nano Video with Windows Movie Maker

    I found this page by Apple that explains how to use video from the 5G iPod Nano, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3837
    But, I cannot find Windows Movie Maker V2.5, and V2.1 with Windows XP will not import the video from the iPod Nano. Anybody have any ideas on how to solve this? (Besides buying a Mac...)
    Also, Windows Media Player 11 will not play the video created with the 5G iPod Nano either.

    You can use the AVS Video Editing software to import MPEG-4 Movie files in the same way you'd import .avi files into Windows Movie Maker. Also, the AVS Video Editor will allow you to import iTunes .mp4 audio files and incorporate them into your soundtrack. If you still want to use Windows Movie Maker for your video editing you can also use video conversion software from the same company, i.e. AVS Video Converter 6, to convert from MPEG-4 into .avi or .wmv format. I've found converting to .wmv to be considerably slower than converting to .avi though. Here's a link to the AVS video software offerings below. BTW, the AVS Video Editor can be used for free, while there's a charge for the Converter.

  • Ipod sync issues with Windows 7

    I just purchased a new computer with the Windows 7 operating softeware and now I cannot sync my Ipod Touch (3rd generation) but I do not experience this issue with my old computer with Windows Vista.  When I need to update my Ipod I have to connect it to my old computer.  Help.  I do not want to pay Apple for support when I see countless post about this issue.

    Are you set to manually manage on both computers? If not, an auto sync on one of them will erase the iPod and place that computer's library on it.
    No that wouldn't be it. The manual vs. Auto sync setting is stored on the iPod, not on iTunes. So if you take a manually managed iPod and plug it into an iTunes it has never connected to before, the new iTunes will still recognize the iPod as manually managed and not do anything bad to it (in theory).
