Ipod Touch 4G 8GB iOS 4.3.3 wont sync or appear on itunes.

I have a 4 gen ipod touch 8 GB with iOS 4.3.3 installed previously i believe on iOS 4.3.1 i was able to sync just fine and added new music. Now on iOS 4.3.3 it stops syncing completely but i know my computer detects it because of the sound, im running windows 7 ultimate. Also currently im using and old connective wire to sync because I left the one that came with it at my place in davis and I am currently in oakland visiting family. Does the wire have anything to do with it or are more people having this problem too?

i'm encountering the same problem. just bought my ipod touch 4g  32G a couple of days ago. it took a long time for my itunes to recognize the new device & when it did i got an error msg saying that it won't sync. im running on 7 ultimate too. i've tried restoring it to no avail. i tried unplugging/re-plugging it from the port but it will still not show up in itunes. i've tried disabling the firewall & enhanced usb just as it was suggested in other help forums & still no luck. (i'm no computer savvy so i just rely on the help forums...its a hit or miss thing) i hope there's a kind soul who would be able to help me/us who are stuck in this issue.

    What version of iTunes is on the computer? You need at least 11.4.

    I've found an easier way, just go to settings>general>usage>music. Then swipe it and press delete, i think this deletes the database described above, then re-sync, this worked for me anyway. Good luck, you need it with Apple software.
    I don't have a large library of music on my iPhone 4s since I've only had it since Oct 2012, but since the update to iTunes 11 in early December, my album artwork has been all messed up.  Everytime I would try to add new music, it would assign the wrong album artwork to anything new coming in.  And in addition to that, it would also mess up album artwork of music already on my phone.  Everything looked correct in iTunes, but on my phone, not so much.  After trying to unsynch, then synching again, my frustration level was at an all-time high. This problem seems to be everywhere online, but no concrete solution for everyone. 
    I finally came across your simple solution (at least for me because of my small inventory of music) of just deleting all the music through the settings, and then re-synching to add back my music.  Now all of the album artwork is correct again.  I'm almost afraid to add new music for fear the artwork will get mixed up all over again! I still think my issue is somehow connected to the iTunes 11 update because up until then I had no issues whatsoever. Anyway, thanks for an easy solution that worked for me.

  • Itunes 9.2, ipod touch 2g 8gb, ios 4, Wont sync, itunes doesnt recognize

    Ive been through 100s of help sites and discussions, none of which have matched my issue. I have an Ipod Touch, 8GB 2g. Just bought it not too long ago. I updated to iTunes 9.2 (Please note my 3.1.3 firmware loaded itouch worked on itunes 8.2 but not the updated 9.2). Here's the issue. Whenever I connect my itouch to itunes, it doesnt give me any errors. Infact, on the left pane under devices, it shows my ipod, but the only right click options I have are "Eject". In the right pane, in the center of a big white space, it says "iPod" and thats all. There's no restore/update/backup sync buttons nothing. There's NOTHING. Ive tried putting into recovery mode. Ive tried updating to iOS4. Ive tried putting it into recovery mode in iOS4, still nothing. Same issues... and now after updating to iOS4 im stuck in "Connect to iTunes" on my ipod. Cant connect my ipod to my other computer with itunes 8.2 Its Horrible. What do I do now?

  • IPod Touch 4th gen (iOS 5.0.1) song duplicates but not on iTunes

    I have some songs on my iPod Touch, and they're shown doubles (album is shown twice with same songs also). It takes up memory on my ipod and it's annoying!!! PLEASE REPLY!! THANK U <3

    All you can do is try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

  • My ipod touch 4th gen suddenly turned off and wont turn on again and itunes doesn't read it

      this is the second time my ipod does it. My ipod just turns off. Last time I found the ipod like that i tried turning it off and hard resetting it also and nothing happens. I also tried connecting it to itunes and itunes cant read it. yet, after like an hour i tried again to reset it and it worked. but this time i did the same thing and it wont turn on..

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod Touch is not recognised by Windows XP and does not appear in Itunes

    I received an Ipod touch recently and set up an Itunes account and quite happily used Itunes and the Ipod touch for about six weeks without any problems. I installed all of the required software updates for the Ipod but about 3 weeks ago began to have problems.
    1) When connecting the Ipod to the computer through the same USB port as usual, I received a message saying that 'charging is not supported by this accessory'
    2) The Ipod is no longer recognised by Itunes
    3) When connecting via the USB port, message received stating that 'device is not recognised' and it shows up as an unknown device in device manager. When connected it appears to set up empty disk drives under the E, F, G and H drives with an associated system volume also being set up.
    I have re-installed Itunes, Apple Mobile and Bonjour on several occassions, I have cleaned the computers registry, tried the selective start up option via MSCONFIG and ried to re-install the drivers all to no avail.I have also tried a system restore back to before this all began.
    I know the USB ports are working, I have checked them, there is obviously a conflict somewhere that is stopping Apple software working on my computer but as I haven't made any software changes or hardware changes since before this sorry saga began I am running out of ideas.
    Any assistance / ideas would be gratefully received

    I don't know what I did, but now it works!!! :O

  • IPod Touch 4G running iOS 6 not recognized by iTunes 10.7

    After updating my iPod Touch 4G to iOS 6 from the device itself and then updating iTunes on my PC to 10.7, whenever I connect the iPod Touch, it gives an error saying "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes."
    My computer is running on a 64-bit OS, and the version of iTunes I installed is 64-bit. I have already tried the methods given by Apple to fix this (uninstalling iTunes and all other Apple software and reinstall iTunes, running Apple Mobile Support program, etc...). How can I get my iPod Touch to be recognized properly?
    *Note: I am still able to update my old iPod Video 5G without a problem*

    I agree it it the driver since the diagnostics say:
    Apple Mobile Device Driver not found.
    Did you try step 5 of:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

  • ITunes always wants to restore my iPod Touch (4th gen, IOS 5.1.1) constantly

    I have an iPod Touch 4th gen, IOS 5.1.1
    When I plug it into iTunes, I get an eror message saying:
    "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPod. Go to the Summary tap in iPod preferences and click Restore to restore this iPod to factory settings."
    I have restored my iPod like the message says, but once it is done restoring and I have unplugged it from the computer, the next time I plug it in the message comes up again. I have tried reseting both from backup and as a new iPod.
    Please Help!

    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
