Ipod recognised but contents not visible in windows explorer

Hi There,
I have this strage problem with my 5G ipod from many days. When I connect the device to windows, it is recognised but i am unable to see the contents of it. I can see only only the folder "Photos" which has 1 file named "Photo Database".
When it do Run-> "G:/ipod_control" in windows, i can see the contents of this folder. I normally use my ipod to store my documents in disc mode and i would like to access them now. Unfortunately i do not remember the folder names to a Run-> G:/whatever...
Is there any way i get to see/access those non ipod-default-folders?
I rally appreciate any kind of help on this. Thanks guys!
Cheers

  • Phone not visible in Windows Explorer - post 10.3 upgrade

    I installed 10.3 on my Q10 no problem, saw the Blend icon and decided to install (having used it on the work Passports) so a couple of things....
    1. Blend now downloaded - but wants to install on an F:drive - which would be the Q10.
    2. When connected via USB (or wifi) the Q10 is not visible in Windows Explorer (it was fine in 10.2)
    3. Can see the drivers begin to install, but then it rolls back and a 'Install failed, cannot find F:drive' appears.
    4. Is Blend intended for use on the Q10.
    Anyone got any ideas I can try?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Found it, you have to go into Settings > Networks and Connections > Connection Services > USB and slide the USB Mass Storage Mode to the on position. It will then show as an ext. hdd in Windows Explorer.

  • Problem: BB 8700g - connected via USB to my PC but not visible on Windows Explorer

    when I connect my 8700 g (OS 4.5 / DTM 5.01) to my PC via USB and open the Windows explorer I exspected to see there the device , I don't!!!
    I would like to "drag and drop" *.mpg-or *. jpg-files from my PC to the BB device (such as ring tones or photos)

    Also, check that you are using only root USB ports...no hubs (sometimes the front-side ports are hubs...use a rear USB port). And make sure to try disabling USB power management in your system configuration (Device Manager).
    Apologies in advance if this is redundant -- there's no way to be sure if you've already seen and tried these.

    First, please make sure that you have setup the NAS corretly, you can refer to the user manual I found on the
    Buffalo offical website
    http://www.buffalotech.com/products/network-storage/home-and-small-office/linkstation-220
    Meanwhile, please mak sure to turn on network discovery under Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings
    Make sure that"client for microsoft network" is installed under the network connection\properties
    If issue persists, please temporarily turn off firewall and anti-virus porgram since incorrect setting can block the connection.

  • Lightroom 1.2 not visible in Windows Explorer

    I had Lightroom 1.1. and had no trouble assigning Lightoom as the program to open .jpgs. Since I've upgraded to 1.2 Lightroom does not appear as a choice in the file type selection list in Windows Explorer. When I browse to the Lightroom .exe file location in the program sub-directory it doesn't get added to the list.
    I reinstalled the upgrade, stopped all spyware and virus programs but still not working.
    Any ideas anybody on how I can fix this??
    I'm on Windows XP Professional, IBM laptop.

    Same problem here.

  • Photoshop CS2 thumbnails not visible in Windows Explorer

    I have Photoshop CS2 running on XP Pro, and all of the thumbnail images for my PSD files show up as black squares in Windows Explorer.  The files I created in PS6 still show their thumbnail images, but once I load them into CS2 and save them, they're gone.  Any ideas as to what's causing this?

    There was a DLL called psicon.dll provided with early versions of Photoshop that made .psd thumbnails visible in the 32 bit Windows Explorer.  I don't know whether later versions of .psd files might be incompatible.
    For modern systems, especially 64 bit systems, there is no Adobe-supplied icon shell extension - one has to go to commercial (but inexpensive) software from one of a couple of companies out there who provide the proper codec:
    Mystic Thumbs:    http://mysticcoder.net/mysticthumbs.html
    Ardfry PSD Codec:  http://www.ardfry.com/psd-codec/
    Of course, if you investigate these double check to be sure the software will work on your system.
    Before paying for anything you might also check to see if you have the Maximize Compatibility setting checked in Edit - Preferences - File Handling.
    Hope this helps.

  • External HDD PX1393E not visible in windows explorer

    Hi everyone,
    I just bought an external HDD PX1393E for my non-Toshiba laptop. I know its old and it has still windows 2000 SP4 on it.
    Now my problem is my laptop wont recognise the external HDD. The add new hardware wizard works fine, but I can't see the new drive in windows explorer.
    I looked in the FAQ from the guide. There I tried to go and see in the storage options from rigt-click on my computer in the manage options. But I still can't see the drive.
    Now I wanted to see if I could find some driver update or something, but man you cant find jack on this site.
    Anyone?
    TIA

    dear kody,
    thanks a lot! This seems to help.
    I had exactly the same problem with a WD 1TB external drive. I couldn't figure out what was wrong.
    The WD people should have mentioned that in the instructions.
    I'm now formatting 1 TB of space. It probably takes until tomorrow morning.

  • Folder permissions set in Powershell not visible in Windows Explorer

    Hi
    I have created the following script to grant TestGroup access to c:\MyFolder:
    $MyFolder = "c:\MyFolder"
    $rule = new-object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule ("TestGroup","FullControl","Allow")
    $acl = Get-ACL $MyFolder
    $acl.SetAccessRule($rule)
    Set-ACL -Path $MyFolder -AclObject $acl
    The script works and grants access. However, if I open the Security pane from Windows Explorer, I cannot see the permissions:
    But the permissions are set:
    Why can't I see the permissions in Explorer when they are set through Powershell?

    I added
    "ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit","None","Allow")
    which seems to have done the trick.

  • Some photos not visible in Windows Explorer

    Dear All,
    I have a problem when using an iPhone 5s with iOS 8.1.1 together with Windows 8.
    The iPhone connect well, I can browse most of the photos from Windows Explorer, but some newer pictures are simply missing. So I see the majority of photos taken, but some are simply missing. Has anyone already encountered this? I have tried rebooting the phone and the PC, with no result.
    Thanks.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT1329 iPod classic disc use - only some music visible in Windows Explorer!?

    I followed above steps but then realized that it has only copied some of my music over. When I look at the music folder on the ipod in Windows Explorer, I only see some of the artists/albums/songs that actually on the iPod! I can see that a certain song is on my iPod and can play on my iPod without a problem, but it is not visible in Windows Explorer, hence it doesn't get copied over.
    I can find the songs in the hidden ipod_content file on my ipod, but if I copy a file over to iTunes it gets added as a new file (which works), but the 'old' non-functional file is still there. We are talking hundreds of songs so doing it this way would mean hours and hours of locating manually and adding to playlists plus deleting the 'old' file in iTunes.
    Is there a way to copy everything over from the ipod_content file and getting iTunes to match that with the missing songs like it did with the songs that were copied over the first time around?

    Hmm.
    Ideally you would have copied the entire iTunes folder from the old computer to the new one, having first consolidated your library to make sure that all the media content was inside the iTunes folder. If it isn't too late then go back and do it again.
    Otherwise see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. If you have your preserved library file what might work is to manually recover the media files into a new iTunes library with the iLounge article near the end, get iTunes to organize the media. Then cut and paste the new media folder onto the one you had previously so that no duplicate files are created. With luck your original library can then find the recovered files.

  • IPod Touch not recognized by Windows Explorer.

    My iPod Touch is shown in iTunes' list of devices but is not recognized by Windows Explorer.  Another possibly consequential symptom is that iTunes will not start when the device is connected to the computer.  Any help appreciated.
    Windows 7 Pro, IE9, have verified latest version of iTunes.

    If your iPod is recognized by iTunes (and by your photo app as a camera), then that's how it should be. To startup iTunes when the iPod is connected, check the appropriate option on the iPod's Summary page in iTunes.

  • IPod nano: Connected to the iTunes on Mac OK but not visible in iTunes on Windows. But is visible in Windows explorer as a disc.

    Hi,
    I have an issue with my iPod nano. I first connected it to the iTunes on Mac and synced perfectly, but now I am trying to connect it to the iTunes in Windows but iTunes can't see it. Even althought the iPod is visible in Windows explorer so it is connected to the PC. Don't know what to do next.

    Well start with these articles and see if that gets you anywhere...
