Ipod nano won't recognized via USB2.0 but OK via USB1.1

I am using a Dell PC with windows 2000, with both the USB2.0 and USB1.1 port. My ipod nano can be recognized via firewire and USB1.1, but not USB2.0.
I suspects it is the problem of my USB2.0 card (with Ali chipset), because
1> Ipod is fine because it can connect with another PC with USB2.0.
2> My Ipod driver and Itune software were installed correctly, because it works when connected with USB1.1.
However, the USB2.0 ports worked well with other devices, and it will recognize ipod nano as an unknown USB massive storage device (I set the ipod to disk mood).
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Do a search on this forum. I posted something about ALi USB2 not being certified at http://www.usb.org/ - The person with the problem picked up a Belkin USB2 card and all is fine with his system now. May not be what you want to hear, but that appears to be the fix. You can always got to Dell or ALi for help

Why can't my Ipod nano connect to itunes?

Hello Ron,
I would be concerned too if my iPod nano was not recognized by iTunes. I recommend reviewing this article for steps to take when your iPod is not recognized:

New Ipod Nano - won't update "not enough space" but its empty!!

My wife's iPod Nano is brand new (I have a Video iPod so iPods are not new to me!)
I get the message that the iPod cannot be updated because library is too big etc....
What I did:
I reinstalled iTunes.
Restored library and unticked all tracks.
Downloaded updater and restored iPod Nano.
Tried to update "only checked" tracks - didn't work. Restarted system - settings of "checked songs" were saved - got same message.
Tried unchecking this and doing "only sleceted playlists" with a playlist of 208MB (iPod Nano model is 1Gb) - still got same message.
Tried everything I can think of - still no joy
Adam

Thanks for the suggestion but I am not using it as Firewire HD and I unchecked "enalbe disc use" anyway.#
Something is definitely not right somewhere - when I switch to manual management of tracks it works fine - its just a pain to do that all the time.
Cheers

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 won't sync podcasts from iTunes after I "Restored" the ipod.

If you've read the Technical Specification you will find that the nano can only use Firewire for charging, not for syncing:
http://www.apple.com/ipodnano/specs.html
"Charging via USB or FireWire to computer system or power adapter (sold separately)"
So you can rule that out.
Have you tried the 5 R's?

IPod nano won't sync in new laptop

Hello everyone,
my 6th generation 8GB iPod Nano won't sync in a new Windows 8 (not upgraded to 8.1) laptop. iTunes recognizes it and is able to enable disk use but will not sync the music. The computer also recognizes it. It just won't sync, when I press the sync button it seems as if it is going to sync but it stops after a few seconds without synching or changing anything. I already uninstalled and installed iTunes and restarted the laptop and the problem is still there. Also I wonder why iTunes doesn't say that the iPod is synched with another library and if I want to sinc it with the new one since the music my iPod currently has comes from an old laptop that doesn't work anymore so that's why I have my music now in this new computer, but it won't sync and it's frustrating. Any advice? Thank you.

IPod nano won't sync; dreaded "duplicate file" message

Suddenly, my old but heretofore functioning iPod Nano won't sync radio podcasts. Gets the "duplicate file" message. I have tried resetting multiple times; reinstalled iTunes, changed the port, checked for plug-ins (no iToner) etc. Ran diagnostic; it fails the device sync test, saying no iPod touch found.
I have seen some other complaints about this.
Is there a solution? I have done most of the troubleshooting steps but did not restore iPod to virginity (hoping to avoid reloading songs onto it).
Thanks in advance for any help.

7th gen iPod nano won't turn on after disconnect.

7th gen iPod nano won't turn on after disconnect. I loaded some new music, synced and ejected correctly. screen went black on unplug. Waited, did the button trick, didn't work. plugged it back in & it is recognized immediately. restored, resynced & ejected again. same thing-black screen w/ no response. Charged it overnight. ejected, screen then went to language setting. OK for English, eject & back to black on unplug. Switched ports for cable, tried eject thru PC...all resulting in dead nano after unplug. I really don't want to charge into the store & take it out on the poor kid who will catch the brunt of my frustration. anyone have a suggestion?

Hello Marie,
I would be concerned too if my iPod nano was not powering on. I found an article for the 6th generation iPod nano that has steps you can take for an issue like this (the only difference for the 7th generation iPod nano is the steps you will take for the reset. I included the steps to reset a 7th generation iPod nano below):
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting the device while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Volume Down button for at least eight seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
You can find the full article here:
iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3474
All the steps apply to the 7th generation except the steps for the reset. To reset a 7th generation iPod nano, use these steps:
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for six seconds, or until the screen goes dark. The Apple logo appears after a few seconds, and then the Home screen. You may need to repeat this step.
I got these steps from this tutorial, which may also help with your iPod not appearing in iTunes:

Have you tried connecting to iTunes to be restored? You may need to manually place the iPod into Disk Mode first so that it is recognized by both your Windows OS and iTunes.

Hello, Pete.
Here is an article I would recommend going through when an iPod is not recognized by iTunes or the computer.
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
Usually the resolution is updating the Apple Mobile Device Driver. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

HT204302 My ipod nano is not recognized in itunes on my computer, when it has in the past. How do I fix this?

My ipod nano is not recognized in itunes on my computer, when it has in the past. How do I fix this problem?

I would think, Twins1995, that if we are having the problem, others are as well. Hopefully, Apple will shortly issue a follow-up software release to fix the problem. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
It would be helpful, if there were some kind of work-around in the interim, so we can use our devices. Pretty frustrating when you consider that all of the hardware and software is produced by Apple.

I recently upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5 and now my iPod Nano is not recognized in iTunes. I also upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 7.1. i Tunes on my computer does recognize my iPhone. What is the problem with my iPod Nano not being recognized?
