Ipod not bieng reconized by the comp, but is still charging

my brother has a nano which has suddenly been unable to be recognized by the computer, i tried it out on another computer, which it works on. any advice would be appreciated. thnks!

Similar issue. Sometimes iTunes does recognize an ipod is attached but has lost reference to it's name and refers to it as 'iPod'. A pop up appears indicating that 'iPod' is corrupted and should be restored. When I try to restore it I get an error indicating "The ipod 'iPod' could not be restored. And unknow error ocurred (1437).
Other times iTunes does not recognize it all. I have gone through all the trouble shooting steps for ipod nano 3rd generation.
The ipod is still functional but it it will not sync anymore.

    Deleting an app won't stop its subscription, there are instructions on this page for managing and stopping auto-renewing subscriptions : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4098

  • HT1848 my ipod will not update.  I have plugged it into itunes and authorizing the computer but, it still says that all of the purchased product has not been transfered.

    my ipod will not update.  I have plugged it into itunes and authorizing the computer but, it still says that all of the purchased product has not been transfered.  It keeps telling me to authorize the computer which I have done.  The purchased items were purchased using an $10 gift card, would that have anything to do with it?
    Thanks,

    We won't know until you try the procedure.   The reset will not affect the content of the iPod.

  • HT2693 The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets.  The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. Please

    The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets.  The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. This is the new ipad with retina display and is only 2 months old and otherwise works fine. Please help!

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPad. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

    Apple will exchange your iPad for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • Why is the video playback on the 160 g ipod not as clear as the 80 gig ipod?

    I recently got a new ipod 160 g classic. The video playback is not near as clear as it was on my 80 g classic. Is there some setting i have wrong. The video is washed out and has a yellow tint. I even replaced the unit, but it still looks the same.

    Hi there, BDAqua, and thanks for the reply.  I just tried watching one of the non-DRM-protected videos in VLC, and I found that it glitched, too - but not in the same manner.  The glitch lasted for about two seconds and then self-corrected.
    Checking my SMART status, it's verified, and I take that to mean that there were no issues.
    I managed to catch an episode mid-stutter in windowed mode, and Activity Monitor had iTunes at 20.6%, considerably higher than anything else (all the other processes were in the single digits), but I had seen iTunes's CPU usage higher earlier - up to 27%, yet it didn't stutter at that point.
    I have 4.55GB of free RAM and 510.42GB free HD space.  0 bytes of page-outs.  Actually, I've never seen it that low before, but I definitely suspect that's not the problem.
    Thanks,
    -Greg
    Edited: Corrected VLC test results.
