  • IPod Nano Not Recognized by any Computer

    Hi. I found an iPod Nano about a month ago. And I plugged it in to my computer and nothing, the only thing it does is it Starts to charge for about 5 seconds...then immediately stops...What I don't understand is that my iPod Shuffle works perfectly, I plug it in, then iTunes pops up. But I have tried this iPod Nano on about 5 different computers, with iTunes and nothing. I have a Windows Vista, with iTunes ver. 8.0.1 the newest. Can anyone help please?

    I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer.

  • Ipod Nano not recognized on my computer

    My iPod Nano doesn't show up on My Computer or in the ITunes store under devices.
    A popup recommends reconnecting the device but it does not help.  It then says to uninstall and reinstall Itunes.
    This device used to be recognized on a different pc but we changed out pcs.  Is a Nano only supposed to be recognized on only one Pc?

    Try one or more of the following
    > Restart your computer
    > Uninstall & Reinstall iTunes - Windows XP | Windows Vista or 7 | Mac OS X
    > Reset iPod (will not delete everything)
    > Go to My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows Vista or 7) and see if iDevice shows
    > Restore iPod (will delete everything)
    > Make sure iTunes and/or iOS firmware is up to date

  • IPod is not recognized by my computer's usb port and itunes

    Remove my ipod from the computer without ejecting it and now the ipod want turn on, it is not being recognized by my computer's usb port or itune.  I have reinstalled itune and still have the same problems.

    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.

  • Why is the ipod nano not recognized on my computer in order to sync songs from m music library?

    I need help. I was able to put songs on the ipod nano from songs that i bought from itunes... but how can i put songs on the nano from my music library already on my computer. I have tried dragging the songs to the folder.  I have tried copying songs to the itunes cloud but the nano does not show the songs. How do i put songs on the nano that are from my cds? When I try to sync the songs, the nano is not recognized.

    When I try to sync the songs, the nano is not recognized.
    Is it saying "An iPod has been detected but could not be identified properly"? Or is something a bit different going on?

  • Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up new computer with newest version of itunes

    Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up on new computer, only songs which tansferred were songs bought on new computer after set up, tried to sync songs and it deleted old songs from ipod.  How can I get them back on ipod??  They are showing in music library on itunes still.

    If the iPod database gets corrupted, it will add files to "Other" instead of where they really belong.
    Restoring the iPod will erase this database and recreate it.
    And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?
    No, it shouldn't. This is why you Restore the iPod. It erases the corrupt database.

  • I was updating my iPod touch to 4.2.5 when an error occurred and now my iPod is not recognized by my computer or under devices in iTunes.  My iPod is also stuck on a screen saying to connect to iTunes.  I tried resetting my iPod and it did not work.

    Please help!  I was updating my iPod to 4.2.5 and iTunes said that it was preparing my iPod for update.  Then an error popped up and now my computer won't recognize my iPod and it doesn't show up under devices in iTunes.  All it has on my iPod is a picture of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to the iTunes logo.  I tried resetting my iPod and it just restarts to the same picture.  I tried restarting my computer as well.

    What was the error number?  That would be very useful since the following gives actions for various errors.

    Try manually placing the iPod in recovery mode to see if that will make the iPod visible in iTunes.  See:

  • TS1410 my ipod is not recognized by my computer

    my ipod is not recognized by my computer?

    I realize this question is six months old, but just in case this helps someone. My PC suddenly decided not to recognize my IPod. I jumped through all the hoops for 24 hours trying all the suggestions and then just sat and took inventory of everything notable that was different from the last time I had synched it (a year earlier). I'd finally freed myself of Norton and installed Avast and several sites mentioned that as a possibility but no. In the end it was the new HP Officejet Pro 8600 software. I did a custom install and opted for the USB rather than wireless hookup. First off it took my old Canon scanner hostage and choked it into retirement. Then it started fondling Photoshop and searching for images in every file it could access. But the best trick was that it will just not let you synch your IPod for love nor money. Now I am a dinosaur and still use XP but I'm pretty sure the same thing happens with Windows 7. Fortunately, the fix is easy enough ***doink***, yank the printer's USB cable out of your PC and everything is fine.
    Just posted this in the hope I can save somebody else a day's worth of cursing and hair tearing...PB

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
