Ipod classic 5th generation doesn't appear on Itunes

When i connect my iPod to my computer it doesn't appear in my iTunes. I tried using disk mode and that doesn't work. I tried using developer mode and that didn't work. I re-install iTunes a few times and that didn't work. When I disconnected my iPod there was a notification and it said "USB device not recognized."
When I connect my iPod to my computer I realized that it didn't have that screen (Do not disconnect) but my iPod does is charge my phone.
Please help me!

Try:                                               
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable                                                       
- Try on another computer                                                       
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How come my iPod Touch (5th Generation) won't appear in iTunes?

    My iPod Touch (5th Generation) won't appear in iTunes. I've never had any problem like this until we got that new charger and USB cord that comes with the 5th Generation. We just barely managed to get it to charge with my HP laptop. Before the device was considered "unknown" and was rejected by my computer, but then I found an article that said to uninstall the USB driver or whatever, and we did so, so now it's able to charge. We got all happy, thinking that it was going to apear in iTunes now, but it's still not there. It's said to be "Apple iPod" whenever it pops up after being connected to the computer, but it doesn't open in iTunes. I tried going under "File" and then "Device", and then trying to sync, but it appears gray and won't let me click on it. I don't know how to get it to open there. Can anyone help me? Please?

    - Reboot the computer
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try again.

  • IPod nano 1st generation doesn't appear in iTunes vers. 9.02 - HELP

    Since I upgraded my iTunes to the latest version 9.02, my iPod nano (1st generation) doesn't appear and I cannot synchronize it. Tried to change USB port, no result. Tried to uninstall iTunes and install earlier version 8.2 for Windows XP, but it won't open, saying that "the iTunes Library.itl cannot be read as it was created in a more recent iTunes version". What am I to do if I want to keep using my old nano?
    Desperate Sapiapple

    I am having a similar problem. Dusted off my daughters old nano to take to the beach. Tried setting it up on the old lap top I am taking with me and I could not get it working. After hours of diagnostics and troubleshooting matrixs it seems that I did not have drivers. Apple's troubleshooting says go to microsoft, MS's says go to apple for the drivers. Shows up as a faulted device. Did the updates to the USB drivers, etc. Put the player in disk mode (still would not recognize) My laptop says yes I have an I pod but it cant find the drivers to install it My other old laptop running old I Tune software seems to have no problem. I thought it was my problem I was wasting a
    Sunday on, now I am thinking that this is a problem with this latest version of I tunes.

  • My iPod Classic 2nd Generation doesn't sync with iTunes

    Hi, I bought a powermac G5 to sync my ipod classic 2nd generation, 20gb (from 2002) over firewire, however when I plug the ipod in, it charges but iTunes does not pick it up. The iPod charges, and works fine. When I got onto 'about this mac' and then firewire devices it says it is unable to list firewire devices (in red writing -error?). Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks

    Do one of the following:
    > Restart your computer
    > Restore your iPod
    > Uninstall & reinstall iTunes
    > Check on my computer (windows XP) OR computer (windows vista & 7) and see if your iPod shows on there (Windows Only)
    I'm not a Mac user so I'm not completely sure if this gonna help.

  • My ipod classic 5th generation is not playing any kind of audio. i tried resetting it and i used multiple speakers/ear buds. nothing worked. do you have any other suggestions?

    My ipod classic (5th generation) is not playing any audio. when i play a song the little picture of the album cover comes up and the seconds clock and the blue line come up and change/move, but there is no sound. i have tried multiple speakers/ear buds and i have tried to reset it but notheing worked.
    What should i do? 

    Assuming that you actually have the volume turned up (you don't say that you have, after all), make sure that the Volume Limit is not turned all the way down.
    Look in the Settings/Volume Limit menu. The small arrow controls the volume as well.

  • TS1441 IPod classic, 5th generation [30gb] [video] [restore issues]

    I have an IPod classic 5th generation (video). I followed these steps exactly. But, whenever
    my iPod is plugged in it makes the sound, like the hard drive is trying to start but stops its
    self. It stays in this cycle of trying to start until the battery runs out. Please help. My iTunes
    is up to date. This is so weird because it was working just a minute ago and this has never
    happened before. Please help me! I need music!

    Do the iPod disk diagnostic, to check Hardisk health, refer to this excellent post by tt2.
    Most likely the hardisk is dying, with high Realloc and Pending sector numbers.
