Ipod does nit connect with itunes

i can't connect my ipod to the computer anymore. there's nothing wrong with the wire or ipod, i've already tried it with another computer, there it works.
but i need to connect it with the other computer. i guess someting with the itunes programm could be wrong but what??
if i plug in the ipod it doesn't connect but somehow it realizes that it's connectet but only the the ipod will turn on/off when I plug it in/out.

won't it delete all my songs in the itunes if i delete and reinstall it?

  • IPod can't connect with iTunes-keep getting install 64 bit iTune message

    When I connect my iPod Touch to the computer and try to sync with iTunes, I keep getting the message that I have to uninstall the 32 bit iTunes and install the 64 bit iTunes. We've already done this and it won't recognize either the iPod or the iPad. HELP, please!!!

    honestly on a Windows I do not know how, there are programs that you can download that will tell you, and there are unix scripts that can tell you. to find out how, you might want to talk to somebody who owns a windows and is proficient in using it.

  • My ipod is not connect with itunes.

    what can i do?.

    Try here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

    Also, if the iPod does not turn on see:
    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.
    - 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 won't connect with itunes

    My itunes was updating and so was my ipod I think.
    But an error occured which has left my ipod at the same screen. The itunes logo + a usb cable pointing to the logo.
    Now it wont appear on itunes so it isn't connected.
    Windows gives me a message stating "The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned and Windows does not recognise it."

    I ran through all procedures on the support page.

  • TS1538 My iPod won't connect with iTunes!

    On my ipod a usb symbol pointing towards iTunes is showing up, but every time I plug it into iTunes my device does not show up. My iPod is doing nothing but showing this screen. This is coming after I had an error in updating my iPod and unplugged it. I have already tried restrating my computer, restarting my ipod touch, and changing my usb cable and port. Nothing is working. I really don't care if it updates at this point I just want my iPod to be functional!!

    That's why you should always do regular backups.  Not only of the iPod but also of your computer.  I assume that you do not have a backup of the crashed computer (if you do let us know), nor of the iPod on your current computer.  If o backups, there is nothing you can do except to restore the iPod to factory settings.  You should, however, be able to redownload the purchased apps and music associated with your Apple ID, but all of your data will be lost.

  • 5th gen ipod does not connect to mac desktop or itunes

    My ipod does not connect with my desktop or itunes (ie when I plug the ipod in using the original USB cable nothing happens--no charging no recognition that it has been connected). My nano does work with the same cable so I know it's not that. I've followed the support instructions resetting, downloading the latest software and restarting. I cannot, however, restore since the first step of the instruction is to connect the ipod and wait for it to show in the source list in itunes. It is also interesting that when I use the car charger the ipod does charge and shows the charging icon.
    Any suggestions?

    I guess i can lend my voice to the conversation. my ipod "locks up" when i connect to my computer also. i just updated itunes and have not been able to connect. there is no ipod folder on my computer when i search through ""finder". i have to "reset" it after i disconnect to continue to play it. i have done everything short of "restoring" due to i have over 3000 songs and i'm unable to back up. the manuel refers to a disk to update. i can only play songs, and recharge. need help to.

  • Ipod cannot connect with itunes

    My iPod will not connect with iTunes, it doesn't even show up on iTunes. I know the cord is working because my ipod is charging, but I don't know what to do?
    Please help!

    Sorry for being cut off. More info: iPod Touch was connected to Dell running Windows vista running most recent iTunes. Had a BSOD while attached. The Touch runs fine. Plays music, playlists, all apps, wifi, iTunes without a problem. Can download through iTunes OTA without a problem. When I attach the Touch to the computer, it recognizes that the Touch is attached (is in My Computer), but iTunes gives the message "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod <name>. Go to summary tab..." I see that this is a common error, but there is no solution I've found.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes with no success. It seems odd that the Touch works fine but cannot connect. I really don't want to wipe it clean.
    Any suggestions will be most welcome.

  • IPOD TOUCH NOT WORKING WITH ITUNES

    I am using:
    iPod Touch 16GB 1.1.4 (With $25 Software Upgrade)
    Windows Vista Premium Edition
    iTunes 7.6.2
    Whenever I connect my iPod, the device connect sound is made and it shows up in the my computer window, but it will not show up or sync with iTunes.
    I HAVE ALREADY TRIED THE FOLLOWING:
    Reseting the computer
    Reseting the iPod
    Using a different USB port
    Using a different cable
    Erasing ALL of the iPod's contents (Yes I lost my $25 update as well)
    Restarting the "APPLE MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT" in the "systems" application
    ...As well as many other things, all with absolutely NO results.
    I have tried to manage my ipod through other programs, nothing seems to work. I connected the iPod to a different computer and everything worked fine.
    I ASSUME the problem has something to do with the iPod Touch's drivers; for whatever reason they might be corrupted or installed incorrectly, thus preventing the iPod from automatically reinstalling them as well as preventing the possibility of syncing.
    My question is, how can I reinstall the drivers without having the iPod touch do it automatically?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    I fixed the problem myself.
    If anyone else has this same problem and is looking to fix it, here is what I did.
    I found this on another site:
    "Okay well I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple trying to fix this problem. The guy I talked to seemed to have delt with this problem before. He tould me that Apple was getting numerous calls about the iPod touch not connecting with iTunes. So here is the solution that worked for me.
    The first thing you must do it uninstall iTunes and Quicktime using the controll pannel, add/remove hardware, on your windows computer. Once you have uninstalled both of thoes programes go ahead and look for anything else that is Apple and uninstall them as well. There should be an Apple updater or driver that is very critical to uninstall, this was the cause of iTunes not recognizing the new iPod Touch. Next make shure you have the very latest update for Windows on your computer, you can check this on Microsofts web page. Finnaly once you are shure you have UNINSTALLED EVERYTHING that says Apple, iTunes, or Quick time restart your computer and MAKE SHURE THAT YOUR IPOD IS NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR COMPUTER. Then download the newest version of iTunes and install it. Once the installation is complete go ahead and connect the iPod Touch and everything should work.
    I am not shure if this will work for everyone but in my situation it worked. I hope it helps some of you out there!!"
    That worked like a ******* charm. Hope this helps.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

    I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

    oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-
