IPod contents not showing after connection to 2nd Mac

I sync my iPod with my home computer with no problem. I bring it to work and just connect it to my work computer and it sees it as a volume on the desktop and in iTunes, but when I unmount and go to use it, the iPod the contents are gone. I know everything is still on the iPod (I can see it shown in the usage bar in the iPod summary window in iTunes) but the iPod shows no songs or video for me to play. I don't sync it with my work computer--I am only interested in using it for disk use. When I take it home and sync it everything is there and it works fine after that.
I have the same iTunes account at home and at work and it gives me no warnings or anything when I connect the iPod at work (about syncing or erasing contents). I am thinking it may possibly be the difference in iTunes versions. I have 7.5 at home and 7.3.2 at work (I would have 7.5 if I could).
Any suggestions? I would hate to think I cannot use it as a transport drive anymore...

Yep, that's probably correct.

  • Pages 5.5 table of contents not showing after formatting to ePub

    Im currently trying to format my pages version 5.5 document to ePub. My goal is to use the created document in iBooks. I have downloaded the ePub best practices template from the relevant apple help pages and followed the guidelines. However when opening the document as an ePub file via iBooks the table of contents is non existent. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    All the documentation I have read for created EPUB are to export XHTML, rather than DTBook. I'm not sure if it follows the same rules as EPUB for XHTML.
    Assuming it does, you need to do two things: (1) Create a TOC Style (not just a Table of Contents) in the Layout menu. (2) When in the Export EPUB dialog > Contents panel, specify the TOC Style you created.
    In an "normal" EPUB 2.01, that would do two things: It would create a navigational TOC shown in every EPUB reader, and it would leave the TOC you placed on your page as an internal TOC.

  • Itunes freezes when connecting and ipod does not show up

    When I connect my nano 3rd gen in windows vista using itunes 9 my ipod does not show up and itunes freezes. the ipod remains with the connected screen and I cannot close out of itunes. Any help would be wonderful... Thanks!!

    I have (finally)solved the problem with my iTunes freezing! Here's what I did:
    1.I backed up my entire music library to an external hard drive.
    2.Then I completely uninstalled iTunes 9 from my computer.
    3.After a re-boot I then completely deleted my entire music library. (this can be a little scary so I double checked my music library back up on the external drive)
    4.I Googled iTunes 8 and found it at
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/06/28/apple-itunes-8-2-and-quicktime-7-6-2-di rect-download-links/
    5. I downloaded it but before I installed it I copied my music library back to my computer. I did not copy everything that was in my original iTunes music folder however, I only copied the music,album art work, applications,games,Tv shoes, and podcasts folders. I placed those folders in a new folder called iTunes on my computer. I did not include any of the iTunes database files eg: .itl / .xml / or .itdb files as these were created in iTunes 9.
    6. Now I opened iTunes 8.2 and added all of my music and other media content.
    7. Next I attached my iPod nano to my computer. Then Windows automaticly open a window asking me if I wanted to scan for problems or continue without scanning. I had windows scan for problems and once that was done my iPod nano began to sync. Oh what joy!
    I think, and this is only a guess based on what I've read here on Apple's discussion pages and my own experience, that there is a problem/conflict or bug with iTunes 9, Windows Vista and the 3rd -4th generation iPod. I will NOT be upgrading to iTunes 9 until Apple has addressed this issue. It seems to me that there are a lot of people having similar issues.

  • While updating Ipod we now have a blank screen and when connecting to itunes the ipod is not showing under devices

  • My ipod is not showing up on my itunes and is on a screen saying connect to itunes because i just reset it.

    I had reset all my settings and erased my data on my ipod touch, well then a screen popped up saying to connect to itunes, i did so and my ipod will not show up on itunes, help please and the screen will not go away saying connect to itunes either

    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 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.

  • Ipod will not show up after reinstalling itunes

    Hi all,
    I just replaced my hard drive and of course I lost my itunes library. After reinstalling itunes onto a new drive (Win XP), and attaching my ipod, my ipod does not show up. Itunes finds new hardware and brings up the library, but that's all. Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another USB port and computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
