Hi aimsy0x,
From your post I see that your devices are not being recognized in iTunes, and in attempt to troubleshoot the issue, you have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. There are more troubleshooting steps I'd like you to go through in order to resolve this issue, which are outlined in the article linked to below.

Ipod classic no longer supported under new Itunes?

I have an older 160GB IPod classic which is only used in my Porsche as it syncs best with the sound system. After downloading the latest Itunes software onto my PC yesterday, I see that I can no longer autofill or otherwise navigate through my Ipod via Itunes. Itunes does recognize the device; but, only allows me to 'eject' it from an icon on the upper right hand side of the Itunes window. This is very frustrating and I don't know how to return to an older version of Itunes.
Any suggestions for me?
Michael

Another thread on this site has wondered if Apple is withdrawing support from older devices - it has happened in the past - and is very frustrating when you have something that still works and can't use it.
Don't get me started!
I had always assumed that when the iPod Classic was discontinued it would be replaced with something better. (256GB Flash and a Lightning connector.) I was wrong.
My problem is like many others, Apple makes NO portable device that will store my 150 GB of music. (Their competition does.) Even an iPhone 6 only has 128GB, Max. So, what Apple could do in 2009, they CANNOT do in 2014.
Nicely express your concerns to Apple using the links below. They will be read.

Newer 32GB iPod Touch no longer connects to MacBook.

My newer 32GB iPod Touch no longer connects to my MacBook at all. All has worked fine until yesterday. All cables and USB port check out fine with older iPod. Touch still works beautifully but charge is dwindling. Since it's not recognized by MacBook no charge icons show up. I ran the trouble shooting pages in Apple Support, did all the resets, repaired permissions, reinstalled iTunes, etc. Any suggestions out there? Thanks!

Whenyou plug the iPod into the computer via USB does the iPod's screen show the iPod is charging? (The computer has to be on)
Look at the dock connecort on the iPod and compare it with the dock connector for the iPod that does work. Look for foreign material, bent, broken or corroded contacts and other abnormalities.

My ipod will no longer connect to itunes

My ipod will no longer connect to itunes except for while it is restarting. However once I get to my log in password it disconnects. Also my computer does not seem to recognize my ipod yet it still manages to charge it even though it is not recognized. I have tried unistalling itunes/ installing it again. I can't seem to reset my ipod, and I have turned off my firewall and disabled my anti virus. Nothing seems to work and I am losing my patience. This just happened out of no where. Does anyone have any suggesting about what I could do?

May somebody please help me?

TS1398 ipod will no longer connect to wireless

My ipod will no longer connect you ATT wireless. It did before and my iPhone and iPad still connect jut fine. Any ideas why?

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

With verson 12.01.26 my iTunes can no longer connect to the iTunes store or iTunes Match

After downloading iTunes version 12.01.26 on my PC my iTunes can no longer connect to the iTunes store or iTunes Match. My itunes displayed a message at the top that it was connecting to the iTunes Store. After closing my laptop and opening it again after a few hours, there was a message stating that my computer was unable to connect to iTunes because of a problem with my internet connection. My laptop is connecting fine with the internet, yet not through the iTunes program, or at least it seems that way. I'm not positive but feel like the issue may have stemmed when I downloaded the new version, I think maybe I messed up the process somehow by closing my computer or something.

I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging. When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point. Is it dead for good?

If it is otherwise working, you can change the battery. If you want to do it yourself, you can buy the part on eBay and other online sources. Just make sure you know the type of iPod you have so that you get the right part.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
There are online guides, including the ones on this web site
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod
(Note: Most replacement batteries come with plastic/nylon tools seen in the guides.)
You can also have a repair business do the work.
If it is just the battery, if you do a Reset (using the Menu and Select buttons) while it is connect to your computer, I think it should still be recognized by iTunes.

My iPad won't connect to the iTunes store, is anyone else having this problem?

My iPad won't connect to the iTunes store, I've never had any problems before. Also I have the sling box app and it isn't working either. It now says remote streaming is not enabled on this device and I have used sling box in the past with out any problems. Any help would be appreciated.

Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
