So you have worked through all of the troubleshooting here?
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
Has it ever successfully connected?  If so, do you know what might have changed since then?

  • IPod Nano 3rd generation error -50

    When attempting to sync photos into iPod Nano , unexpected error -50 occurs, and is unable. We have latest version of iTunes 8.2 (23).
    What do we do??

    Hey there,
    I would try trashing the iPhoto Photo cache to the trash because it may be corrupt and see if that helps. Instructions on how to do this can be found in the Apple support document below. Hope it helps.

  • My ipod nano (2nd generation) will cont connect with windows or itunes, windows says it has had reported errors??? any help? havnt used ipod in over a week and now it wont work with my computer

    my ipod nano (2nd generation) wont connect with windows or itunes, i used it last week (charged it through USB) then this week when i connect it (once again through USB) it wont work, it says "windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems" any help? ive made sure my itunes is up to date, done a reboot on my computer and ipod and still nothing..help please

    This could either be a conflict with the iPod's docking port, the iPod's USB sync cable, or even the USB port you are plugging the iPod into on your PC.  So the first thing I would try and do is plug the iPod into a different USB port on your PC.  Make sure it's a high powered USB 2.0 port as they provide a higher power throughput than older USB ports or even the ones that are sometimes available on the front of the tower.
    It might help to disconnected all other USB devices from the PC (minus the keyboard and mouse) and reboot the PC. Then reconnect the iPod once again.
    If still no luck, swap out the cable with another known working cable to rule out the possibility of a damaged or faulty cable.
    Lastly, plug the iPod into another PC to see if it's recognized there.  If the same error appears on another machine, it's likely a hardware issue with the Nano meaning you'll want to have it serviced or replaced.

    Please if anyone could reply to the possible ways of fixing this error I will be grateful.
    I have tried to provide as much information as I can .
    -Yes , my iTunes is updated to the latest version.
    -My iPod is a Silver Ipod Nano Second generation 4GB's
    -It is fresh from the box
    -My computer is a Windows XP Pro.
    Thanks for your time.

    For this, first try going through the dll fix outlines in article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304508
    If that doesn't work, try doing a selective startup through MSCONFIG (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538), and then updating the iPod.

  • Im trying to sync photos from my mac to my iPod nano 3rd generation, and an error keeps coming up that says "format could not be converted". How do I fix this?

    Im trying to sync photos from my mac to my iPod nano 3rd generation, and an error keeps coming up that says "format could not be converted". How do I fix this?

    Hi newipoduser,
    Here are some possible solutions:
    Do you use musicmatch jukebox on your computer? If you do, you have to go into task manager on windows and end process mim.exe. It interferes with disconnecting ext devices
    Empty your "trash/recycle bin."
    If that doesn't work, try quitting all your programs, especially music-type programs, basically things that look for mp3's etc.
    if that doesn't work, "log off" then "log on" and that should refresh/purge your OS system.
    Finally, you can restart your computer.
    Hope one of these helps!
    Cheers,

  • When i go to sync my ipod nano 5th generation i get an error saying "A duplicate file name was specified".  what do i do then?

    I am trying to sync my iPod nano 5th generation to my computer and when i go to add music through iTunes i get the following message:
    The iPod "X's iPod" cannot be synced.  A duplicate file name was specified.  Any ideas how to fix this?
    On my computer (iMac) while in iTunes it is showing that the music is indeed on my iPod, but when i eject the iPod there is nothing there.

    I have a 27" iMac with the latest version of iTunes.  I tried restoring my iPod and even removing and re-installing iTunes.  What eventually worked for me was plugging into my PC and restoring/reformatting it to work with my PC.  I don't know why it wouldn't work with my iMac, but now it seems to be working.

  • Can i use my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro

    I registered my new ipod nano 7th generation on my macbook pro.  While on my macbook, I tried to download wma audiobooks from the library using overdrive media console & its not working.....so, I decided to use my windows laptop.  I have the latest version of itunes on both laptops.  (I know I can download & transfer wma audiobooks to my shuffle using overdrive media console & windows laptop.)  I'm getting an error message that says I have to reformat my nano if I want to download wma audiobooks.  Can I use my nano on macbook pro & windows laptop?  will I ever be able to download wma audiobooks to my nano using macbook? 

    Your iPod Nano will need to be restored in iTunes on the Windows laptop before you can start adding/syncing content over to it.
    Or if you want to use it with OverDrive on the Mac, you'll need to download the books as MP3s as WMA is not supported.

  • Windows recognizes ipod nano (1st generation) but itunes doesn't

    I'm a happy owner of ipod nano for about a year. My itunes and ipod nano was working perfectly until few days ago I encountered problems with both of them.
    I fixed my itunes (which kept showing an error message when I tried to uninstall/repair it) but after i got that fixed my itunes couldn't detect my ipod nano.
    I looked at a directions page in this website and it told me to "press start service" in something. (i forgot what that "something" was)
    Whenever I connect my ipod nano to my itunes, the ipod folder & error message about "ipod service module" pops up.
    I'm DESPERATE to fix this problem. So please answer my question and thank you. =]
    Ipod Nano (1st generation)   Windows XP  
    Ipod Nano (1st generation)   Windows XP  

    One of the services in Windows that has to be on is iPod Service. If that service doesn't stay started, iTunes won't see the iPod.
    Go into your services (administrative tools, services) and scroll down until you see it. If the service doesn't say started, right-click on it, choose start. In properties, it should show as automatic.
    While I know you already reinstalled iTunes, another reinstall of it might put the service back in the correct mode of starting whenever iTunes needs it.

  • My iPod Nano 7th generation is not detected in Itunes

    Hey there,
    I have a iPod Nano 7th generation and I'm working with a Windows 7 64-bit version.
    So when I got my iPod, I installed iTunes and everything went very well..
    but today I tried to sync my iPod and it is not even detected from my iTunes or my computer.
    I had the error -42110, but I found the solution on here, but it didn't work either.
    I went through a lot of questions on here, but I couldn't find any solution for my problem
    Has anyone got any idea?

    well actually I did connect my iPod 3 days later or so to my charger, because a friend of mine asked me if I'm sure that the cable is not broken. So I connected it and it charged, when I thought "Well let's try on the computer again". I plugged it in and it was detected again.. so uhm I don't really know why it did not worked the last times.
    So maybe try to restart your computer and turn off an on again the device and try it later on again.. maybe it will work then:)
    I'm sorry I can't help more!

  • ITunes doesn't recognize IPod Nano 7th Generation

    ITunes doesn't recognize my IPod Nano 7th Generation. I get a message saying "An IPod has been detected but could not be identified properly". My Windows 7 computer shows the IPod Nano as a removable drive until I launch ITunes at which point it disappears from the list of removable drives. I even disabled my security software (Norton 360 but not Spybot S & D) and it didn't solve the problem. Any suggestions..............Thanks
