IPod Shuffle with iTunes on Win8 64 bit. Doesn't work for me.

Running Win 8 64bit. iTunes initially recognizes my iPod shuffle but then it disappears. Properties say driver is up-to-date. Details say Windows is removing the device. Restarted with connected and same problem. Downloaded iTunes today - 1/5/13. Any ideas?

Read a thread about changing the iPod Preferences from disk use. Plugged it into my old Win7 64bit machine which had no problem yesterday and today it is doing the same thing as my new machine. So I can't view the iPod Preferences in iTunes. I probably shouldn't have updated my iTunes. There seems to be an issue with the latest version because all was fine with the old software.

    The overall settings for VoiceOver is on the shuffle's Summary screen in iTunes.
    Artist name and song name - Press and release the VoiceOver button. 
    The playlist menu - Press and hold the VoiceOver button.

  • Ipod shuffle with itunes no playlist

    After upgrading to latest iTunes 12.0.1.26 I can no longer sync any music or playlists to my ipod shuffle. I have 37Gb of music available, but when I select my device and then settings/music, it shows no playlists or tracks to sync? I hate this new iTunes, why do they keep changing it? I'm tired of forever changing formats and settings... so pi**ed off with it!!!

  • IPod Shuffle with iTunes 6

    I recently gave my niece my old iBook running OSX 10.2.8 (she's 11 and the laptop helps her with basic school work). For Christams I bought her an iPod shuffle (2nd Gen) thinking she'd be able to plug the ipod into the ibook and it would connect/work straight away. The version of iTunes on the laptop (iTunes 6) does not seem to support the ipod saying that I have to upgrade to iTunes 7.2 However, iTunes 7.2 will not install on OS 10.2.8. Upgrading the iBook does not seem to be a realistic solution though, as the iBook is one of the old clam shell types with only 10GB of hard disk space and with only a CD reader. Any solutions to this problem will be warmly welcomed.

    you probably just need a new laptop.

  • Ipod Shuffle with iTunes 7.02

    My Ipod shuffle (the original) Will no longer give me the option to enable disk use on it. when I open Itunes and click on the Ipod there is no Ipod sybmol in the bottom (I am aware they took that off in Itunes 7.0) and there is only a Settings tab and a Contents tab, Neither of which gives me the option of enabling the disk use. Am I just going to the wrong area or what? I need some help.

  • Itunes 10 Add to Library doesn't work for mp4 file

    I'm running OS X Lion, iTunes 10.5.2, Quicktime 10.
    I am trying to add an MP4 video file to my library and itunes simply does nothing when I drag it to the Movies folder or when I try to select the file from the Add to Library command.  I've been reading for the past hour and see others have had similar issues.  Is there a fix for this?

    I just discovered that iTunes doesn't like the H.264 version of MP4 files. If I convert the video to MPEG-4, I can successfully copy the file into iTunes.  Is this a bug or a feature?

  • My Ipod Shuffle requires Itunes 10 but with my Mac OS 10.4.11 I can not run itunes 10. Is there another way to load this ipod shuffle without updating to Snow Leapord?

    Sorry Glen, but there is not. And you don't have to upgrade to 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  You need at a minimum of 10.5.8 (Leopard).

  • Is my IPOD shuffle with software 1.0.1 compatible with iTunes 11.1.3

    Is my IPOD shuffle with software 1.0.1 compatible with ITunes version 11.1.3.  I tunes doesn't seem to recognize the shuffle anymore.  Was this just a ploy to get us to buy new IPODS?

    My much older 1st gen and 2nd gen shuffles still work with the latest iTunes, so I don't think it's a "ploy."
    If you are using the iTunes 11.x for the first time, the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) may be hidden.  To show the sidebar, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    The shuffle does not appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES?

  • HT1293 Can a 1GB IPod Shuffle (model A1204 - probably 1st Gen) be made to work with a 64 bit computer?

    Can a 1GB IPod Shuffle (model A1204 - probably 1st Gen) be made to work with a 64 bit computer?  I have never used this IPod which I receivede as a gift in 2008.

    I have been trying to get somewhere with this Internet Security Suite...and now have come to the conclusion this is not going to work.  Now running Vista 64 bit, and have gotten nothing but the run around to try to complete the downloading of the program.  I've contacted Verizon Tech Support...then tell me that this works with the 64 bit but I need to contact Windows as there is a glitch and they give you the steps to get thru it.  Windows advises me to contact Verizon again as there are no problems with the OS.  Also have contacted Radialpoint and once again nothing...Obviously the Secuirty is not compatible with Vista 64 bit yet, which I just can't believe like you said...it's not like it was just yesterday this OS came out.  My frusteration comes from nobody steps up to take any responsibility as to what the problem is.  If it is not compatible yet then say so and not waste my whole weekend trying to get a straight answer.  I have other computers that I am currently using the service on and do like the program, but as for my Vista 64 bit looks like I may go to Macafee for protection.  It just amazes me as big as Verizon is and as popular this Vista has become they are not on the ball in keeping up with technology.

  • I have an older Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer these songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available

    I have an oder Ipod shuffle with many songs loaded on it. How can I transfer ths songs to a new computer since the old computer is no longer available?

    I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

  • Loading new Ipod shuffle onto Itunes account

    Okay, I have an Itunes account already and it is connected to my old ipod mini. I recently got an Ipod shuffle and when I try to load songs onto it the ipod shuffle won't recognize them because they are protected on my itunes account. I tried to change my account so it recognized my new ipod shuffle and itunes said I was not authorized to do that. Any suggestions?

    You can load any number of iPod devices with one iTunes library and account. So that's not the problem.
    Are you sure your shuffle is charged? Did you try plugging it into a different USB jack? When you look in "My Computer" is your shuffle recognized? Does iTunes see your shuffle and list it as a device when it's plugged in?
    Does your shuffle need a software update? OR, can you restore your shuffle? Go to the settings tab and click on the "Restore" tab.
    Are you trying to use autofill for your shuffle? Perhaps, to get started, you should turn off autofill and make a playlist. I have found that it is easier to make a playlist of all of the music I want to add to my shuffle. Then I pull this playlist on top of my shuffle and it is updated.
    Your shuffle should play your purchased music with no problems!

  • Using iPod Shuffle with TWO computers

    I have two laptops (one Powerbook and one iBook) and would like to use my iPod Shuffle with both computers, downloading music from the iTunes of each computer. Is that possible or will it always make me choose which iTunes I am linked to and delete all the music from the other one?

    You can set your iPod shuffle up to mount as a disk on the desktop, and copy data files that can be transported from one computer to another. You aren't going to be able to use the shuffle to sync music from one iTunes account and another, however. It was only designed to work with one computer/one iTunes at a time.

  • TS1363 replacing ipod shuffle with ipod nano ?

    Replacing and older ipod shuffle with a new ipod nano.  Cant get itunes to recognize the device so I can download my songs.  Any help out there?

    Getting iTunes (and your computer) to recognize your shuffle is one problem. 
    Also, you can't use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs you purchased from the iTunes Store (and those can also be re-downloaded from the iTunes Store Purchased screen).  However, there are third-party utilities that can be used for iPod to computer transfer of song files.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    But you would have to get your shuffle recognized by your computer first, before any type of transfer would work.
