Ipod disconnects and reconnects

My iPod keeps disconnecting and reconnecting to my computer. This is really annoying because it will only appear under devices for a few seconds before disconnecting. Then after about 10 seconds it will connect again and appear under devices again. Why is this happening?

Mine is doing a similar act. It'll sorta update and then disconnect. This is getting very annoying. I've done everything short of re-installing windows xp!

  • Ipod disconnects and reconnects at will

    When ever I plug in my iPod to my computer sometimes it connects for a second or two then all of a sudden it disconects. I've tried resetting and restoring my ipod and it still does the same thing.

    Did you look through or try the steps in the article
    I posted a link to?
    Try the steps in that article and then post back with
    whether or not the problem persists.
    To clarify (since the link is at the end and easily missed), I was referring to the steps in this article...

  • TS3474 iTunes has detected an iPod that appears to be corrupted. You may need to restore this iPod before it can be used with iTunes. You may also try disconnecting and reconnecting the iPod.

    What do I do about this message? I've restored it 3 times, but this message still comes up, and i cannot put music on it now.

    Sounds like your iPod is broken. Take it to Apple or someone else who repairs iPods and see if you can get it fixed, or get it replaced.

  • Podcasts no longer appear under ipod device in I tunes library.  I can access podcasts on my ipod but I CANNOT access podcasts on I tunes library.  I have disconnected and reconnected.  I have restored my ipod.  I have checked for updates. What else?

    'Podcasts' under Ipod device disappeared in Itunes library.  I can't manage my podcasts on ipod via I tunes library.  I can access the podcasts on my ipod (5th generation), itself. I can access and manage music.   I can add more podcasts to ipod.  The podcast icon reappears with only the newly added podcasts.   When I disconnect ipod and reconnect ipod, 'podcasts' no longer appears under the device.  So I am unable to manage my podcasts on I tunes library which means I can't delete podcasts from I tunes library.  I can only add podcasts. I have disconnected and reconnected ipod.  I have checked for updates.  I have restored the ipod to it's original settings.  My next step will be to install and reinstall I tunes.  Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

    To be clear, the podcast icon disappeared under Ipod device in Itunes.  I can access and manage the podcasts in the itunes library.  I can't manage podcasts on my ipod via itunes (which means I can't delete podcasts from my ipod). I can access podcasts on my ipod, itself.

    I plugged my ipod into my computer to load up new tunes and it froaze on the time I dad connected it with the message 'do not disconnect' on the screen. Despite disconnecting and reconnecting it and ensuring it was charged up it will not operate. The 'lock' symbol is showing at the top of the screen even when I have moved the lock switch. I have been using my ipod for several years with no similar fault. What is the problem/solution?

    I would first try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Next would be to restore the iPod from backup

  • IPod sync failed. Disconnect and reconnect, then try again.

    Over the past month or two, I have gotten this message quite frequently with my iPod. It usually happens after I sync my iPod once, leave it hooked up to my iMac for charging, and then try to sync again (sometimes not even more than a few minutes later). I also often have trouble getting my computer to recognize the iPod (or getting my iPod to recognize that it's supposed to start syncing) without having to disconnect and reconnect it and shake the USB cord around a few times.
    I had a little bit of this problem with my iPod 5G and XP PC, though no "iPod sync failed" messages ever. This is a new iPod classic and an iMac. What's going on?
    Does anyone else have this happen to them?

    I'd been having this same issue and kept trying all the suggestions on the forums to no avail. Then I just disabled "Enable Disk Use", which required me to first disable "Manually manage music & videos". I unchecked all of my music, videos, podcasts and photos, applied the settings, then chose which media I wanted in my iPod. I synced successfully and even cleared it out completely a couple of times to re-sync. No issues anymore.

  • MY IPOD IS DISCONNECTING AND RECONNECTING ITSELF.

    Okay I've been having problems with my iPod ever since I did the loading my whole library onto my iPod. I've been getting the stupid ! with the folder symbol. It always gets frozen and I can't get it out of being frozen. When I connect it to my Computer, it's not recognized and it keeps on disconnecting and reconnecting itself and showing the stupid apple logo then the folder with the "!" on it. 10 Seconds later it does the same thing. It connects then reconnects. AND ON TOP OF ALL OF THAT IT'S MAKING THIS WHIRRING SOUND AND SKIPPING ALL OF MY SONGS WHEN I'M NOT EVEN TOUCHING THE BLASTED PIECE OF CRAP!
    SOMEONE HELP ME!!! THE STUPID CRAP IS PRACTICALLY SENDING ME INTO A FIT OF TEARS BECAUSE IT WON'T STOP BEING STUPID!

    okay I've sorta of fixed it. I don't know it just started to get recognized by the computer but I still ahve a problem. My iPod shows the apple logo and it's lit up and it's NOT GOING AWAY NO MATTER WHAT. Someone help me please.
    I've like tried EVERYTHING.

  • Keeps disconnect and reconnect

    I have a retina Macbook Pro 13"(latest), iPad(3rd genernation), iPhone 5 and iPod shuffle(latest) and I am sure all their systems as well as iTunes on my Macbook Pro are latest version. The thing is that whenever I connect my iPad and iPod shuffle and try to sync using iTunes it just keeps disconnect and reconnect. At frist I thought there might be some problem with my USB port, so I tried both of my USB ports and it keeps behave like that. And the wired thing is, it did not happend to my iPhone 5 so far. So it is most likely that there are problems with the iTunes.
    So I just want to ask is there anyone encounter the same problem and if you know how to fix this problem plsssssss tell me. Thx.

    I think these problems were hopefully solved by recent update of Itunes.

  • Must disconnect and reconnect earbuds to restore audio

    I've noticed that if my iPod Touch shuts down on its own, when I turn in back on the volume slider doesn't appear. I have to disconnect and then reconnect the earbud plug in order to see it and to allow audio output through the earbuds. I'm using 4.1 now, but this has been going on for several months. Anybody else notice this and know what's going on? It's a 2nd generation Touch.

    Stephen Patriquen1 is correct: the link given by allen a does not address the problem described in the header by ChubbyCherub, namely "The software for the iPad was corrupted during download. Disconnect and reconnect, then try again."
    Like ChubbyCherub,I have faithfully and completely followed all the troubleshooting directions given, including also unplugging USB devices, even though I don’t believe any of them are relevant to a corrupted download, and repeatedly re-tried the download, to no avail.
    So what is required, allen a, is a solution related to the original question that doesn’t involve doing the same thing over and over in hopes of a different outcome.
    In the meantime, my iPad has been stuck in recovery mode for days.

  • Why is my USB mouse disconnecting and reconnecting?

    Our USB mouse has been disconnecting and reconnecting intermittently. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for it. We're using a Logitech Optical Mouse. It doesn't seem to matter which USB port it is plugged into. Occasionally when it becomes unconnected and doesn't reconnect, unplugging and plugging it back in will "fix" it. I've been using HardwareGrowler to keep track of this. This was occurring before we updated to 10.7. I may be imagining this but it does seem to occur more when it is running hot.
    Thanks

    I have yet to try a different USB mouse to see if it is the mouse itself. I did plug in my iPod and there seems to be no problem with connection there. The mouse will disconnect regardless of tempature and it seems to disconnect more during heavy usage (gaming).

  • When leave I nano 4th gen connected to either of my cars it no longer restarts playing when car is restarted. Instead it shows 'no entry' in the song title on the car audio display and won't play until disconnected and reconnected.

    Nano has worked fine for a couple of years being left connected to either one of our cars. However, every time car is restarted it won't play without being disconnected and reconnected. I have done a full restore.
    Current cars are Range Rover Sport 2011 and Jaguar XK 2011.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?
    Thanks,

    I had a similar problem. Try resetting and erasing the phone and restoring from a known good backup.

  • How can I troubleshoot this problem with the iMac keyboard? My keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all the typing is lost while it was offline.  This is usually 5 seconds or less but happens 2 or 3 times in a minute.  Annoying!

    My wireless keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all text that was typed during the time offline is missing.  i have to go back and retype missing parts.  What can I do to troubleshoot this.  The computer is only about six month old.  This problem is new in the last couple weeks.  Thanks for suggestions.

    Beat me to it, Donald.     But there is a possible alternative.  If the batteries have been replaced since new, were they replaced with the same batteries or another make.    There are examples around which do not fit perfectly and leave a certain amount of movement inside the battery housing.  That could lead to instability such as the OP describes.

  • Time Capsule disk disconnect and reconnect every 5 minutes

    This problem began with Airport Firmware 7.6, and has continued to perist with every subsequent firmware version.  Reverting to firmware version 7.5.2 eliminates the problem.  Running with the latest firmware version 7.6.3, on OS X 10.8.2, the Time Capsule disk is disconnected and reconnected every 5 minutes, and this is seen in the console log:

    Has anyone found a solution to this, other than reverting to Airport Firmware 7.5.2?

    Welcome to the club.. there is a very long thread.. here.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3526741?tstart=0
    There seems to be any number of factors.. where the solutions are little silly things..
    Start from the end of the thread and work backwards as this has been ongoing for a long time.. and experience has improved.
    What you are seeing btw is the change apple made in Lion and 7.6 to higher security version of AFP.. but it is a mess IMHO.. and has not worked at all well.

    1. Why don't you purchase it from Apple? I'd be wary with eBay sellers - and, after all, Apple posts their stuff everywhere, even if you live in a country without a localized Apple store webpage or local (physical) Apple stores.
    2. when it comes to adapters / cables like these, NEVER purchase ANYTHING non-Apple-manufactured! Most of the cheap(er) knock-offs don't work! That is, don't try to save on going for a cheaper alternative - it most likely won't work.
