Ipod device not showing on side bar

Ever since I updated my Itunes to the latest update, it won't show my Ipod under the devices section. I 've gone to the support section of Itunes Apple, nothing helped. Whenever I plug my Ipod into the computor, a message from CameraWindow pops up saying: No camera detected. I think this means I've somehow changed the setting (Is that even possible from just updating ITunes?)
Please help!

Try uninstalling iTunes and then reinstall it.
I pulled this out of an Apple Support forum, check if these work.
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. iTunes 10 and later requires Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later.
Update to the latest version of iTunes and Install software updates on your Mac.
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you are not sure if your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications. Disconnect other USB devices, and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.
Mac OS X v10.6.8 or earlier only: Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.

  • Ipod device not showing up under overdrive player.

    Over the last couple of months I have successfully downloaded audiobooks to my nano from overdrive (windows desktop version), however over the last week my apple device is not showing as an option under overdrive 'player'.  The only option I am now receiving is USB Driver. When downloading with this option the audiobooks are not recognized.
    I tried re-installing overdrive and itunes, resetting my IPOD to factory settings but the problem was not fixed.  Any help I can receive will be appreciated.

    First of all, try another port on your computer. Some ports are not connected direct to the motherboard and do not recognize the iPod as well as those that are. Reset the iPod each time you connect it to another port.
    Then try with the iPod in forced disk mode.

  • Why would apple not automatically show the side bar in iTunes.  Wasted 20 min trying to find out why my ipod was not showing up.  Really really bad idea, Apple.

    Why does the side bar not automatically show up when you first download apple iTunes?  Really really bad design.  It took 20 min to fine the setting that enable the side bar.  ***?  I could not access my iPod for 20 freakin min!  Just show the **** side bar always!  Maybe apple is too big and is starting to lose common sense. 

    Because Apple update iTunes to do it that way. Apple has not said why.

  • My iPod will not show up in the Itunes device list plus I get an error message

    Hello!
    My iPod will not show up in the Itunes device list plus I get an error message
    " One or more devices is getting too much power from the USB wire" or sumptin like that.
    I've tried this with two wires, so the problem is not there.
    I reseted the iPod to factory settings but it didn't help.
    Anyone??

    - 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.

    Hello johnohuk,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like most of your music was purchased from the iTunes Store. If your country supports iTunes in the Cloud, you can download your past purchases using this article:

    Try:

    - 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.

  • My iPod does not show artists if they're in a compilation album anymore. How do I get them back?

    My iPod does not show artists if they're in a compilation album anymore. How do I get them back?

    You can find the Home button at the far right end of the Navigation Toolbar.
    Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end side of the location bar.<br />
    During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.<br />
    If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.<br />
    You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
    To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
    * Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"

  • My iPod will not show up on my iTunes following the newest update, yet says its up to date on software?

    Recently my iTunes has updated to the latest version on my PC (a Windows 7), and although ios7 is recommended, my iPod tells me that it is up to date with the 6.1.6 it is currently running. It does not show ios7 to download at all, merely says it is up to date on its software. When I try and plug the iPod in to my PC with a USB cable to sync new music to it, it doesn't even register as being there at all. No device option is in the drop-down file box nor does it show next to the music, video and etc icons. I tried restoring my iPod to the cloud and that worked just fine, tried restarting both devices and replugging in the USB, but nothing seems to be working. No matter what I've tried from the FAQ, my iPod is not showing up or registering to sync. It worked perfectly fine before iTunes updated and any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    The 4G can only go to 6.1.6. It hardware does not support a higher version
    See

    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:
