Ipod frozen - after installing itunes 7-
after installing itunes 7 - and installing ipod - the screen read "ipod updated" - ejected ipod - BUT now the screen on ipod reads "do not disconnect" and is frozen, I can't turn it off or on etc. I can't get it to respond despite restarting computer.

As an pod newbie I'm falling at the first hurdle. I've installed itunes directly from the Apple website, but it takes over my system resources completely. I can get it to see my Ipod, but the sync option is greyed out in the menu.
Surely Itunes and Applemobiledevice cannot be that system hungry. My PC is unusable with itunes running.
I've made sure windows is up to date and I've uninstalled & re-installed itunes - all to no effect.

4G iPod problems after installing iTunes 7.3.1
Immediately after I upgraded iTunes to 7.3.1, my 4G iPod ceased to sync correctly. It's not in disk mode, and it's set to sync automatically (not manually managed). The battery is fully charged. Nevertheless, the sync process never seems to complete. "Do Not Disconnect" blinks continually (for hours at a time), and trying to eject the iPod from the Finder or from iTunes results in iTunes hanging or crashing.
If I reset the iPod while it's disconnected, it seems fine after the reboot, but the sync problem persists. Nothing changes if I let iTunes launch automatically when I connect the iPod instead of connecting it while iTunes is already running - same sync issue. I also tried restoring the iPod, but got the "iPod could not be restored" error in iTunes. I've tried rebooting the computer itself, also.
Any suggestions? Is this even an iPod problem (as opposed to an iTunes problem)? My iPhone is having no syncing problems, for what it's worth.Sorry, I am going to be no help to you. I just wanted to chime in that I am havng the exact same problem since updating Itunes to 7.3.1. I can only sync a few songs before things hang as you described. I was able to restore my Ipod once, but still have the same syncing issue. Mine is a 20 gig 4G.
When it's hung trying to sync, you can here some funky noises coming from the Ipod, I thought the harddrive was just going out on it. It also gets hot if you let it keep trying to sync once it gets stuck. But, if I do a reset and connect it again, it will sync a few more songs, then hang up again. -
How do I sync my 3rd gen ipod touch after installing the latest version of itunes?
How do I sync my 3rd gen ipod touch after installing the latest version of itunes?
Correction: Thank you FoxFifth for the good information. I did find this information earlier before landing here in the support community. I have come to the end and I am uncertain about trying to reset my I-pod touch to the factory settings. I was satisfied with the older version of i-tunes. Can someone direct me how to downgrade i-tunes perhaps?

after instaling itunes 10.5 i cant open itunes , my pc says its an error . . what do i do ?
In order to download iTunes 10.7, which requires OS X 10.6.8, you have to buy OS X 10.6. It's available from the online Apple store, in the US by calling 800-MY-APPLE, or online here. After OS X 10.6 installation, run Software Update until there are no more updates available, at which point you'll be at OS X 10.6.8 and can install iTunes 10.7.

IPod constantly turning off and on after installing iTunes 7
I have a shuffle, a color nano, and I think a second generation "touch wheel" ipod. I installed iTunes 7 and tried to hook up the second generation iPod. It turned on, said "do not disconnect" and then went bezerk. Now, when you plug it in, the only thing it does it start up, give the apple logo, make a clicking noise, go blank, and then repeat until it burns all its battery power.
I tried resetting it, nothing. The thing is, it worked fine with iTunes 6.
An interesting note, my nano wouldn't connect with iTune 7 either. Gave me the same weird problems and wouldn't startup. Installed the update, now the nano works with 7.1, but the second generation seems.....dead. Suggestions?Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

IPhone is no more visibile in My Computer after installing iTunes 8
Hi all, after installing iTunes 8, iPhone isn't visible anymore in my Computer section in Windows. Previously, when I connected it, it was recognized as a photocamera and, from my Computer, i could access to it to see the photos that are stored on the iPhone.
Now, instead, iPhone isn't displayed anymore: except for this, it works correctly; iTunes 8 recognizes it and synchronizes it.
Notice: after the iTunes upgrade, when I've connected the iPhone for the first time, Windows says that he has found a new hardware and installed a new driver for an Apple Mobile Device USB.
Has someone else experienced my problem? Thanks in advance!im having the exact opposite problem....my 3g is recognized inmy computer as a camera..but isnt recognized in itunes?
i have no pics downloaded from emails (as i researched this before)
the other night had same problem, had to restore phone, and re-install itunes..then no problem...but tonite trying to add new music and same thing again.
disabled iphone under imaging devices, and its only listed under usb controllers...computer recognizes it every time
there has to be a better way than restoring/reinstalling everytime?..has to be some little catch?
HELP!
FYI, i phone not being used as phone, being used as ipod, and only using wifi..has no sim installed. -

After installing Itunes 10.6.3 When ever I start the computer I get a pop up the says "Applesyncnotifier.exe- unable to locate component, this application has failed to start because Corefoundation.dll was not found" How can I get rid of the pop up?
I hope it doesn't effect how I down load my itunes to my ipod and iphone.
No you should be fine. (The MobileMe service is being shut down, anyway, so there should be no impact at all.) -
ITunes Error 7 (Windows error 127) after installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows
After installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows (latest build), I get an error pop-up saying:
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes
Error 7 (Windows error 127)
I've gone thru the uninstall, reboot and reinstall process three or four times now. Still nothing.
Furthermore, after clicking okay to the error, it continues to pop up on it's own every 45 seconds or so.
There was one other error I came across after trying to launch iTunes after installation.
See both error messages here:
http://screencast.com/t/DSg4PpKF5BeXBrilliant. Thanks a lot. I've wasted a couple of hours on this nasty bug, & trying all the other suggestions across various threads again and again.
I now find I had the same registry entry hanging on, despite uninstalling & wiping everything again and again. Having now deleted this key, (I don't even have an iPod), & iTunes 11.1.14 now opens at long last.
But WHY is this bug not fixed? Enough people are suffering with this across the forum. WHERE is Apple support on this?
It should have been added to their page at
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
by now, why hasn't it???
It's not good enough!
Re:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]
"C:\\Program Files\\iPod\\bin\\iPodService.exe"=dword:80000000
AHA! This entry for iPodService.exe still exhisted. So I had no folders on the PC, no installs on the PC and no services running.... BUT this was still in the Registry.
Step 5 - Delete only the Registry entry above. NO REBOOT
Step 6 - Reinstall iTunes64.exe -

Regards,TonyNo you can't use WMP to sync your iPod.
You could take a look at Yamipod which allows you to manage your iPod without iTunes, but why not try and get iTunes working.

After installing itunes 7 i can't name any playlists
after installing itunes 7 i can't name any of my playlists. when i make a new one it says untitled playlist 13 or whatever number it is and it won't let me name it something else. Also i can't rename any of my old playlists either. Please help!!!
Windows XP ProI'm also experiencing this issue since installing the latest update (currently running iTunes, 7.1.1.5 on Windows XP Professional) -- I've tried naming a playlist when it's first created, double-clicking, and pressing F2 (a known Windows rename keyboard shortcut). It LOOKS like it is taking the characters I am typing, but after 2 seconds reverts to the default name, for example: "untitled playlist." this is HIGHLY ANNOYING because I try to make new playlists every day and none of the new playlists I want can be added to my iPod. I also notice that the Sort options no longer "stick." The particular podcast I like to download (the Adam Carolla Show) is broken into 12 segments that appear in reverse order. I USED to be able to set a descending sort on these segments after I dragged them to the iPod. Now as soon as I disconnect the iPod, the sort options I choose are reset. I can start to try manually reordering the segments, but I don't understand why iTunes no longer works the way it did before. I will try reinstalling and let folks know if this resolves the problem. I am surprised that there aren't any release notes or known issues documented anywhere on this site. Our problems are just buried in informal forums and not answered. Typical arrogant, overpriced Apple.
