Ipod classic recognised as external disc, but not by itunes

I've had a 120gb Classic for a while and more recently got an iphone. I had no problems with either, until recently. When I attach my classic, itunes does not recognise that it is there, yet it still appears as an external drive on my desktop. I am not aware of any changes I have made or that might have led to this issue.
All help much appreciated!

Further update:
I've tried resetting the ipod. I've tested it with two cables and two usb ports that all work fine with my iphone and other usb devices. I've reinstalled itunes. I'm reluctant to fully restore the ipod just yet and wonder if anyone has any other suggestions?
Many Thanks

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

any thoughts anyone??

Perhaps the reason you haven't had any replies is because there is no such thing as an 8GB iPod Classic.
I suggest that you begin by correctly identifying which iPod you have.

IPod Classic 80GB shows on desktop but not in iTunes, so will not sync

My work Mac has just been upgraded to 10.5.8, and with it iTunes to 10.1. Now, when I connect my iPod, it appears on the desktop but not in the iTunes panel. As such, it won't sync any new content.
There is no problem with the cable, as the iPod charges while connected. I've tried resetting the iPod about a dozen times, which has no effect (once in a while the iPod says it is synchronizing, but this only lasts a few seconds and then disappears). Is there anything else I should try before I take the big step of formatting the iPod? I'm reluctant to do this because at the moment I at least have an iPod full of music - if I format and it still won't sync, I'll have a useless empty black box! Is it possible to go back to the previous version of iTunes which was syncing fine?

Have you seen this?

Ipod classic shows on mac desktop, but not in itunes

I have an ipod classic that connects fine to my dell computer (with Windows 7) but when I try to connect it to my MacBook Air it shows up on my desktop but won't connect to itunes. I've made sure I have the most current version of itunes, and have tried multiple ways of plugging it in and have restarted my computer, but I still can't get it to show up. Please help!

Hello!
You need to put your iPod into Forced Disk Mode and restore it using iTunes.
Try resetting your iPod by following these steps:
1. toggle to hold switch on and then off again
2. press the Menu and Center/Select buttons together until the screen goes black (should take no longer then 30 seconds)
3. as soon as you see the Apple logo let up on the buttons and press down the Center/Select and Play/Pause buttons until a checkmark appears on the screen.
4. connect your iPod to your computer and restore thru iTunes

IPod classic recognized in 'my computer' but not in iTunes

This has been going on for about a year and I've been able to fix it (but now I can't remember how) but now nothing will work. I connect it and this message pops up and asks 'Do you want to scan and fix iPod?' and I click 'continue without scanning' (because clicking scan and fix does nothing) and then my iTunes freezes. I don't know what to do!

Next time you plug your iPod in, ignore the Scan and Fix message. Click the Start Menu and type "cmd" into the search bar. Then click on the appropriate Command Prompt application that appears in the results.
Then inside the command prompt type chkdsk [driveletter]: /f and then hit Enter. So if you iPod's drive letter was g you would type chkdsk g: /f.
This should resolve the issue of the scan and fix prompt.

My ipod shows up on my desktop, but not in itunes 7.

Let me start out by saying I've never had any itunes + ipod probems before. Everything has run smoothly up until now.
Last week I upgraded my OS to 10.4.7 because I had been running on 10.2.8 since 2001 and itunes wouldn't let me download albums containing music videos. So I decided it was time for the upgrade. I also upgraded to itunes 7 and had been previously using itunes 6. This is when the problems started. Now whenever I plug my ipod into my computer with my firewire cord, my ipod shows up on my desktop, but not in itunes and I am completely clueless on what to do. No error messages pop up or anything. My ipod charges and that's about it. I tried doing the 5 R's, but none of that helps. I have a feeling it's itunes's problem and not my ipod's. I was thinking that maybe if I uninstall itunes 7 and re-install 6, everyting would work again; but I don't know how to uninstall itunes and I don't want to risk losing my library. I'd just like for itunes 7 to recognise my ipod and update it. Can anyone help me?

My iPod is a click wheel...I think that's fifth generation?
I've always used my firewire cable to update my iPod. I've tried using USB in the past but for some reason it always says that my iPod has low battery and won't let me update it, so I just use firewire. Can I not use firewire with itunes 7?
I'll try using the USB again. It's laying around here somewhere. Just gotta find it.

I can see my ipod nano 2nd generation under finder but not under itunes.

I can see my ipod noano 2nd generation under finder but not under itunes. I can't upgrade the music on the ipod nano if itunes doesn't show it. How can't I fix this problem?

See this article first.

If still no luck, try a low level format of the iPod using Disk Utility and the instructions provided in this article.

IPod nano recognized in MY Computer but not in iTunes

My iPod nano is recognized under My Computer but not in iTunes.
I formaatted the iPod nano as FAT32 using the format option when right-clicking on the drive in My Computer.
I installed the latest version of iTunes software. I adopted the five R's approach to resolve my issue. I have wanted to restore the iPod but this option is not available in iTunes, since the iPod is not recognised by the software.
The iPod diagnostics option in iTunes indicates the following:

Pod classic 160 appears on desktop but not in iTunes

My new iPod Classic 160 appears on my desktop but not in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes installed (and reinstalled (twice)). When I first launch iTunes I get the warning that my iPod is using (old) usb 1 port to connect to my G4 (my beloved G4). This is correct, it is, I can live with slow sync. Anyway, I want to restore my iPod but iTunes freezes (crashes) after giving me his error message:
'The iPod "Mark Carter's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occurred (-1302).'
Then I have to force quit iTunes,etc.
Also, I was listening t music on iPod but then it just seemed to disappear? Can still see albums/songs/artwork etc. but won't play track just skips through them.

IPod Mini is on the desktop, but not in iTunes

I know a variation of this question has been asked a zillion times, but for some reason I can't seem to find the answer. Anyway, I'm a recent switcher to Mac and used my mini for years on the PC, but when I hooked up the mini to my new iMac it only shows up on the desktop, not in iTunes. However, when I plug it into the USB port it actually opens iTunes, but just doesn't show up. Anyway, I saw some other posts about running a restore via iPod Updater in the Utilities folder, however, there's no iPod updater in my utilities folder. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Any help here?
iPod appears on the Mac OS X desktop but not in iTunes.

TS1538 When i plug my iphone 4s into my laptop it is recognised by my pc but not by itunes. I have followed all troubleshooting steps and everything is in order but itunes will still not load??

please can anybody help??!!

Hello EmilyLauren92,
It sounds like your phone is not seen in iTunes on your computer but is recognized in My Computer. You have done an excellent job troubleshooting so far, and next I recommend these steps from the article named:
iPod: Appears in Windows but not in iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1363
4. Empty your Temp directory and restart
7. Remove and reinstall iTunes
9. Update, Reconfigure, Disable, or Remove Security Software
10. Deleting damaged or incorrect registry keys
The title mentions the iPod, but the steps will be relevant for the iPhone as well.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

HT4235 my iPod shuffle is detected in diagonostics but not in itunes

I have iPod shuffle 2nd generation, identified in diagonostics but not in itunes working in Windows7. Kindly help.

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
