Ipod nano 3rd gen. is not being recognized by my computer or itunes, it comes up as a USB drive, the cable is fine
My ipod nano is not being recognized in iTunes or in Windows, it only shows up as a USB and when i plug it in it says 'do not disconnect'
This happened after I put the ipod nano in Philips Ipod speakers.
I've reset the ipod mulitple times, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, restarted my computer, and I can't restore the ipod because it doesnt register on my computer and it doesn't show up in itunes, but for some reason it still says dont disconnect.
What should I do??
just hold down the “-” button and the power button. when it says “ok to disconnect” hold down the powerbutton and the “-” button again.

New IPod Touch 4th Gen isn't being recognized by my computer or itunes.
I got a new IPod Touch yesterday and I am finally getting the time to sit down and set everything up and when I plugged it in it makes the charging sound but itunes is not finding it and neither is my computer. I've been messing with it for hours now and at one point my computer thought the IPod was a camera. I've tried updating itunes to the newest version, uninstaling/reinstaling the drivers, even tried updating the IPod to iOS 6 thinking that might help but still nothing. What am I missing?

My Ipad 3rd Gen isn't being recognized by my computer...
My Ipad 3rd Gen isn't being recognized by my computer / (doesn't show up in itunes)...
I have tried to use it with the following:
Windows 8 64
Windows 7 64
Windows 7 32
Mac OS (newest)
All tried with Itunes 10.7.
I bought it about 3 weeks ago and activated it through WiFi.
It has never been recognized on any computer I have tired it with.
I also tried to connect in DFU mode(didnt work)
Do I have a defective Ipad?make sure you have itunes installed on that computer. itunes comes with the essential ios drivers which are needed in order for your computer to recognize your iphone.

Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your iPod nano will not power on and you have tried some troubleshooting steps already. There are just a couple more troubleshooting steps in the link below.

My macbook is not recognizing my 3rd gen. ipod nano after I reset the ipod. THe finder not itunes recognizes it. Can someone help?
If you have not already, disconnect the iPod and restart your Mac. Do this to Reset the iPod.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320
Once the Mac restarts, run iTunes and connect the iPod.
If that does not help, try putting the iPod into Disk Mode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
then, connect it to the Mac running iTunes. It's possible that iTunes will tell you that you need to Restore the iPod. -

troubled traviesoDid you try using another usb port? my hardrive has two maybe yours does. And if you have a game console, some of those have usb ports so plug your ipod in there and see if that reconizes it.

I purchased an iPod touch for my husband, he was still using the first iPod classic. The iTunes has not recognized the iPod and iTunes is not working properly, it continues to freeze and won't close down properly. Has anyone else run into this? He has run the antivirus software, updated his Windows, uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes. Nothing....any ideas?
Have yu tried here:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows -
I have restarted, reset, erased all data and network settings, tried different ports and different cords, restarted computers, reinstalled and updated iTunes... and now I cannot use my iPod at all. It is less than 6 months old, Apple won't help me on the phone unless I pay, and the nearest apple store is 2 hours away.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recoverymode use one of these programs.
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and

- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Help please....
The advise is that you install an appropriate USB driver for that projector in order for the projector to sense its signal.
Have you checked with the manufacturer if that projector is compatible with your Mac Book Pro?
Is it a newer Projector? All currently that I know connect via Thunderbolt. -

IPod Nano 3rd Gen won't play AIFF files from Logic Pro 9
Hi, so I've bounced a few tracks I was working on in Logic pro 9 as AIFF files, imported them into iTunes and then synced them down to both an iPod Touch 2nd gen and this iPod Nano 3rd Gen. The tracks play fine on the iPod Touch, but on the Nano, when I try to play a track, it shoes the "player" screen for a second, but it always bounces back to the track listing.
According to the iPod Nano 3rd gen spec sheet, it does support AIFF files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP14
Any idea as to why this is happening?
Also, I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.4, iTunes 9.2 and I reset the iPod nano just before starting this whole project.
I'd like to keep the tracks in AIFF if possible...Greetings WonderfulT1,
If you are having an issue with being unable to start your iPod nano when it is not connected to the computer, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps on this page -
