  • How do i get my Ipod 6th generation to show up on itunes, then restore without telling me its corrupt!

    Hi, so the story is about a month ago i had brought in my Ipod 6th generation in to an apple store because the sleep button was stuck down (that ipod was from this past christmas). It was under warenty so I got another one free, but now this new one wont
    1. Show up on Itunes
    2. When it rarely does (it shows up randomly even when its not plugged in) It says its corrupted. I hit restore and that bar goes on forever!
    Ive uninstalled and reinstalled itunes tons of times and that doesnt work, ive restarted my computer which doesnt help. ive reseted my ipod by the buttons and the settings hundreds of times! Disk mode ive gone into but i dont really know whats supposed to happen after i plug it in. I have added songs to my library after my old ipod broke and before i got the new one if that makes a difference. My old ipod (6 generation) worked fine on my labtop with no troubles at all so im ripping my hair out trying to figure out what i need to do.

    Ipod NANO, forgot to mention that.

  • TS1363 1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes (windows 7)?

    1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes on my Windows 7 PC (but shows up in my computer).  Tried all the Apple trouble-shooting steps (some several times).  It used to work with Windows 7 on this PC.  Are there other steps I can try? 

    I'm not sure what "all" means, unless you state them, so if you have not done so already, you should use this procedure to reset the iPod shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Then, shut down your computer (power off) and start it up, with iPod shuffle NOT connected.  Run iTunes.  Then, try connecting the iPod shuffle again.
    Since this is a first gen iPod shuffle that IS recognized by the computer (so it's probably not a bad USB connector), you can also try using the iPod Reset Utility
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1238
    This is for the first and second gen iPod shuffle only, and does a lower level reset than using a normal Restore in iTunes.

  • HT201210 I was trying to update my ipod for ios 6. It got downloaded but could not update my ipod. my ipod screen is now showing one message usb -up arrow-itunes, can anyone suggest something please.

    I was trying to update my ipod for ios 6. It got downloaded but could not update my ipod. my ipod screen is now showing one message usb -up arrow-itunes, can anyone suggest something please.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod shuffle 2nd generation not showing up in itunes

    ipod shuffle 2nd generation not showing up in itunes and when in its dock blinking orange.

    I believe blinking orange means the iPod shuffle is in use by the computer (in some way).  That's actually good, because it means it is at least recognized as being connected to USB.
    If you have not already, be sure to try shutting down the computer completely (power off), with the iPod NOT connected.  Also, follow this procedure to reset the iPod shuffle.

    Turn on your computer.  Run iTunes.  Connect the iPod shuffle.

  • Ipod Fifth Generation Late 2006

    Dear Apple Forum,
    I have a Ipod Fifth Generation Late 2006. Recently I experience an anomalyof this Ipod. I could not remember the latest version of the software in this Ipod. When I plugged into my lappy (OS is Win 7), my lappy could not read the Ipod as an external drive. When I double clicked on the Ipod icon, Win 7 prompts me to format my drive. After consulting my IT personnel of my company, we decide to re-format my Ipod. The settings for formating are as follows:
    Storage: 80GB but Win 7 detected 72GB...where did the remaining 8GB go?
    File System: exFat (Default) -> there was NTFS available but my IT staff says its ok.
    Allocation unit size: 128kilobytes -> there were other values available, from 16kB to 32kB but we chose 128kB. What the ****??!!
    After formating, it works find on my laptop with Win 7. But when i got home and connect to my iTunes, iTunes prompts me to restore software. After which it was not able to restore due to limited memory (my guess is the 128kilobyte).
    iTunes version is 10.3.
    Now my Ipod cannot start up and it hangs at the initial boot up with the apple logo and a "clicking" sound (sounds like the sound of the harddisk mechanism) over and over and over again.
    Now both WIn 7 and my iMac (Leopard) are not able to detect my Ipod. I have attempted the 5 Rs: Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore but to no avail.
    Could someone advise me what I can do to restore my Ipod? Thank you!

    it's possible to sync from a selected folder of
    photos rather than from iPhoto. there's some
    information on how to do that in the following
    document:
    iTunes and iPod: Frequently asked questions
    (FAQ) about Photo Sync
    Thanks for your reply. I still cannot get to the prompt to sync my photos. I really do believe that I'll have to upgrade from iPhoto 2.0 since the prompt appears "copying photos from iPhoto requires iPhoto 4.03 or later" - all other prompts are greyed out and therefore not selectable. Initially I tried copying photos from my desktop to iPod by dragging a folder of 50 photos ... that is appearing as an iPod cache and shows one folder of Photos and another of thumbnails, but neither of these can be viewed on iPod or computer .... any suggestions as to upgrading my iPhoto to 4.03 at least so I can try to sync photos? I did start out with iTunes 4.7 when I first got my computer in 2004 and have been notified of iTunes updates automatically and iTunes is now at 7.2. Does Apple not support iPhoto in much the same way?

  • Is there any way possible to move games from my iPod Fifth Generation back to my computer?

    I recently did a restore on my computer losing all my iTunes Apps.  Thus, Right now, I have games on my iPod Fifth Generation but, not on my computer.  Since iTunes removed the games from the store, Is there any way possible to move the games from my iPod back to my computer?

    Yes. With your iPod plugged in and appearing in iTunes, choose File -> Transfer Purchases.

  • IPOD Classic won't show up in Itunes 9.0.2.25

    Hello, Hopefully someone here can help me. I upgraded from Itunes 7.6 to 9.02.25. It looked like it loaded fine, I downloaded music to the library, but when I plugged my IPOD in, it dings, says "connecting" on the IPOD screen, but never shows up in ITUNES. It does list under my computer, for about 3 seconds, before it says "ejecting" and disconnects itself. I have tried everything at this link - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363 - twice - including doing a full recovery on my computer. I tried switching the usb cable and port, I've rebooted the ipod several times - and in disk mode 2x, I also tried the troubleshooting here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1493. Basically, I've deleted itunes about 20 times and reloaded. I finally thought, screw it and tried to load 7.6 back (i have it on disc, as I live in a rural area and couldn't freaking download it a couple years ago) but i just get an error that I can't download the 7.6 version as I have a newer library. BTW, Apple support basically said, Yep. sounds like a problem. Never heard of that before. What the heck is left to do?

    Solved it. In my case, I had used a utility program I found in my Utilities folder called iPod Software Updater that I tried to updated the iPod software with... (it looked like it worked and then I used the restore function, which deleted all the music)...but it would still not appear in iTunes. Finally after a few hours of resets and restarts, I pressed the select and play keys for 6 secs and triggered a reset while I had the iPod plugged into the computer. Bingo...it showed up in iTunes and prompted me to download new software...which I did and now its back. Geez Apple, how did the iPod become such a killer product with an interface like this? So I assume this utility was for a different iPod model or older version OS.

    My new Ipod shuffle is not showing up in itunes. I've downloaded the newest version. When I set up my account I was not asked to name or register this shuffle. Its a 5th generation 2gb. I cannot find the page to do so.

    Hi Brittcal,

    I would recommend making sure you've run your Windows software updates, and then follow the steps to remove iTunes and reinstall the latest version.   Here are a few articles to help you with this.
