Ipod does not appear in My Computer or Itunes

I copy many files to my 60Gb's Ipod yesterday(In the "Notes" folder-Around 13Gb). Then I ejected it and it worked as usuall(Plays Music and I could see the files on "Notes" ). But today I connected it to the computer and it does not appear. I have uninstalled and installed Itunes again...I did the same with the Windows Xp, but it does not work. When I plug it on the computer, the computer freezes. I tried to plug it on other Computers and it does not work aswell.
What do I need to do to make the Ipod work again?

Hi Stefano!
Try putting your iPod into disk mode, then connecting it to your computer.
If it is sucessfully recognized in iTunes, then try restoring it.

  • Ipod Nano does not appear in "My Computer" and "Itunes"

    I was charging my Ipod Nano. I erased all the songs from the nano to create a new playlist. The Ipod froze in the "Do not disconnect" phase. It was disconnected a few hours later (not intentionally). Now it has disappeared from Itunes and the computer does not recognize it. The Ipod screen still says "Do not Disconnect". I have tried to reconnect the device many times. I have tried to "toggle the hold button" and even shut the computer down and restarted it to see if it would recognize the ipod. No luck. I cannot turn the ipod on and the screen is still dark and the "Do Not Disconnect" seems to be perminant. HELP!

    See if any of these articles help.

  • My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties

    My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties.
    First off, I'm using Windows XP (and Mac SnowLeopard) Here's how it started. For some reason my ipod started showing up as a camera when I plugged it in. It works fine in itunes, though. But when I tried to access it from "my computer" it only
    showed me the one and only picture I had on my ipod. I deleted that picture hoping it would no longer show up as a camera. When it still did I right-clicked on it in "my computer" and selected "properties". Under "autoplay" I
    chose for it to 'not show up' or 'take no action' or some such deal when I plugged it in. I thought that would stop it from popping up the window that asks whether i want to 'open camera wizard' or 'open camera scanning' or 'open folder to view files' or 'take
    no action' , etc. But now it won't show up in "my computer" at all. I also have a Mac with SnowLeopard. When I plugged my ipod into it my ipod doesn't show up in "finder" either! So basically my problem is not a mechanical one with hardware
    or software; yht ipod still works fine in itunes. I just need to undo the change I made. I've searched all around my preferences, utilities, options, etc. It shows up on my "Device Manager" but not on "Disk Management".
    Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    To show up in Windows Explorer, you can try placing the iPod into
    disk mode.
    Moreover, i recommend you to
    restore ipod to factory settings.
    If this issue still persists, locate to device manager, uninstall and reinstall USB Mass Storage Device driver.

  • My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer.  This happened after I agreed to a failed software update.

    My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either.  This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed.  How can I get it going again?

    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.

    I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.4 and at first iTunes didn't work so i came on here and found a way to fix it. Now that I have fixed it my iPod does not appear on iTunes or on my computer.

    Removed. Re-synced. Still not working. Factory reset the phone, re-installed music... made a GIANT "Other" file instead of actually adding any songs.
    Factory resetting again. Any other solutions?
    EDIT: If It helps, I'm doing this all over USB connection, not trying to sync music through wifi or anything.

  • Ipod does not appear in source list or computer

  • Ipod does not appear in itunes after windows scan and fix

    Two days ago, I restored my Ipod classic using Itunes 9.2.0.61. After restoration my Ipod started freezing Itunes and Vista. At a point, I saw a blue screen and my computer forced a shutdown. When it rebooted, Vista kept asking to automatically "scan and fix" problems on my Ipod. Thinking that would solve the "freeze" problem, I stupidly went ahead to have Vista scan and fix my Ipod. Now the freeze problem is gone, but my Ipod does not appear in Itunes. I have tried the five Rs from Apple, but that has not helped. Anyone with a solution?

    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.

  • Canvio External Hard Drive does not appear in MY COMPUTER

    Sorry if the subject is in wrong section of the forum.
    I bought an External Hard Drive to use with my Windows 7 laptop. When connecting, sounds like a new device is connected, also appears listed in DEVICES & PRINTERS, but does not appear in MY COMPUTER, becoming impossible to access it anyhow.
    Procedures about how to format or change device letter (in DISK MANAGEMENT), although the device has been also shown there, haven't work.
    "Drivers" are listed as updated.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    The Hardware appears there like:
    Hard Disk 2 (82h) TOSHIBA External USB 3.0 - [DEVICE IS NOT READY]
          Local Disk (2 - [DRIVE IS NOT READY]
    Available actions for each are: Mark / Unmark / Refresh.
