Ipod touch 2g not recognized in itunes on windows 7 32-bit.

*Hey everybody, umm just got Windows 7 Ultimate everything is working great i love it! But i installed itunes (latest version) and connected my ipod touch 2g & itunes doesnt see it at all . Any HELP would be greatly appreciated. :)*

Does it charge?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Try another cable
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS1363 My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  Is this repairable?

    My sons iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes, or windows.  I have tried a variety of options, even resetting, but still no luck.

    What does the iPod's screen say or do, when you connect it to USB port on the computer?
    The article referenced is for "regular" iPods.  An iPod touch is an iOS computer, so this article would be more appropriate for troubleshooting.

    Be sure to rule out a faulty USB cable as the cause.  Try another cable, or try the cable you have with another device that has a dock connector.
    Also, you should do this test to rule out a problem with the USB port (such as lack of power or USB device conflict).  Shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used).  If the computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). 
    Then, start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect iPod to a direct USB port on the computer.  If it still does not connect, connect something else to the same USB port to confirm it is working.  Preferably, use something similar, such as a USB flash drive or external drive.

  • IPod Touch is not recognized by iTunes on Window Vista

    I have a laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium and I just can't get my ipod touch recognized by iTunes on this laptop, nevertheless it does recognize my iPod Nano 3rd gen. iTunes version is 7.7.0.43
    If I connect the iPod Touch on another laptop with Windows XP and same iTunes version it is recognized and sync.
    Is there any patch that I have to download?

    OK the Diagnostics helped me to solved the problem. Thanks.
    The problem was that the AppleMobileDevice was not working, so I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it to get back the AppleMobileDevice.exe but then I started to have the following problem:
    On opening iTunes the message "AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working" repeatedly appears
    I fixed it following this discussion:
    http://discussions.apple.com/ann.jspa?annID=640
    Run AppleMobileDeviceHelper as an administrator.
    1. Navigate to the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\bin folder.
    2. Right-click AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe and choose Properties from the shortcut menu.
    3. Click the Compatibilitiy tab.
    4. Enable the checkbox "Run this program as an administrator".
    5. Click Apply.
    Thank you for your time. =D

    Yes. Also see the following.  I would first remove and reinstall all the Apple software using the instructions in the link.

    Your media should not be affected.  However, you should always have a backup of your media since glitches do happen.

    Just what have you tried.  There are many Apple articles on the subject and it easy to miss one or more. Did it work before?  Did you do anything to the computer since it last worked?  oDoes the iPod work OK?  Have you tried:

    My ipod touch is not recognized on itunes and will not turn on or even give me the battery sign that it is dead. I turned it off and it won't turn back on now. The screen is completely black and won't do anything. I have tried charging it over night and nothing happened. It was never near water. I have tried troubleshooting it by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button, but nothing happened and it didn't work. What can I do to fix it?
