Ipod touch no longer showing up in itunes after connecting to laptop.

I downloaded itunes on my new laptop that runs windows 7.  Since I hadn't updated itunes on the pc, I connected the ipod to my pc (which runs windows xp). A screen pops up that basically alerts me that I have a digital camera installed.   I have updated the drivers, I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows and it still shows up as a digital camera and still doesn't show up in itunes.  Now, since I initially had the ipod hooked to the new laptop, I am wondering if I did something during the installation and sync on the laptop that has caused a problem on this desk top.   I am completely ignorant when it comes to electronics.  To summarize what I did.
1. Downloaded itunes onto laptop that runs windows 7.
2.Plugged in lpod touch to laptop and proceed to authorize both computers for itunes.
3. Made a playlist that didn't sync with ipod.
4. Went to the desk top(windows xp) and when I plugged ipod in it ask what camera location did I want to run device. That has never happened before.
5. Went to windows system folder and found the usbaapl. sys folder.
6 From the ipod camera device  I opened the device manager, found the ipod under digital imaging..
7.Right clicked ipod camera and update driver,
8.Checked  install from a list or specefic location.
9.Search for best driver in these locations.  I then UNCHECKEd search removable media.
10.Copied and pasted the driver information in the box and clicked next.
11.Saw ipod device driver.
After all of that Ipod still shows up as camera and will not sync!!! Help

Start here:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would first remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
The drivers in windows that sees the iPod as a camera is different that the drivers that see the iPod in iTunes.

  • Ipod touch will not show up in itunes after update 11.1.14.62

    After updating iTunes to 11.1.14.62 my 3 of my 4 devices will not show up in iTunes.  I have two iPod touch devices, an iPhone 4, and an old iPod Shuffle.  The only one that shows up is the iPod Shuffle.    Everything was fine until this latest update.  I've checked with other people and they're having the same issue.  I have Windows 8.1 64 bit.

  • I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging.  When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point.  Is it dead for good?

    I have an older iPod that no longer shows up in iTunes or appears to be charging.  When I press the Menu and Select buttons, the Apple logo appears and then an icon of a battery with an exclamation point.  Is it dead for good?

    If it is otherwise working, you can change the battery.  If you want to do it yourself, you can buy the part on eBay and other online sources.  Just make sure you know the type of iPod you have so that you get the right part.

    There are online guides, including the ones on this web site
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod
    (Note:  Most replacement batteries come with plastic/nylon tools seen in the guides.)
    You can also have a repair business do the work.
    If it is just the battery, if you do a Reset (using the Menu and Select buttons) while it is connect to your computer, I think it should still be recognized by iTunes.

  • Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?

    Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?

    Ok I had this problem, and for me at least what happened was that not all the album artwork was attached to all songs on the album.  So if you right click one of the albums you are having an issue with, the click artwork tab, and go through each song on the album, if it is missing from any of them it will not sync properly to any device.  Find the songs that have the artwork, and then right click to copy it, then go to songs without it, and right click in the blank box and paste it in there.  Then once finished with any issues you are having sync iPod, this should fix the problem.  It worked for me, and it was unbelievably frustrating to know I have the artwork, but it wasn't showing up anywhere on the iPod.  Hopefully this fixes the issue for you, like it did for me!

  • IPod Touch doesn't show up in iTunes

    So I've been reading the support site and this forum for 2 days and I know this is a common problem, but I've tried everything.
    Environment:
    PC w/ Visa SP1 (Intel 975XBX Motherboard)
    32GB iPod Touch (new with 1.1.4 software)
    After many itunes reinstalls using all the hints about complete removal and iPod resets I always end up in the same place:
    iPod shows up under MyComputer
    Driver gets installed by Vista and reported as good.
    Under device manager iPod shows up under external devices.
    Under device manager there is NO entry for Apple Mobile Device under the USB port section.
    After a call to Apple tech support, they said it is a PC problem with the USB mass storage driver. I got new versions of BIOS and driver inf files from the Intel website for my motherboard but still get the same results.
    Any hints ? Apple has pointed the finger at the PC and is no longer any help.

    I have the same problem as well, my new laptop doesn't recognize my ipod touch either(16gb) though i plugged my brother's ipod shuffle on an my laptop picked it up. The only difference between my old comp (that picked up my itouch) and my laptop is that the laptop has vista and my pc has xp. The only thing i could think of doing would be redownloading the driver for my itouch to my laptop but i couln't find anything to that nature.

  • Ipod touch won't show up in Itunes

    I have an Ipod Touch and it shows up as internal storage in Windows 8.1 on HP laptop, but won't show up in Itunes no matter what. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Itunes, deleting the contents of the temp folder, changing USB ports, and changing user accounts in Windows and it still won't show up in Itunes. However, it will show up in Itunes on a different computer with Windows 7.

    Did you remove and reinstall all Apple software. not just iTunes?

  • IPod Songs Don't Show Up in iTunes After iTunes 6.0.2 "Upgrade"

    After installing iLife '06, and the iTunes 6.0.2 "upgrade" that came with it, the contents of my 4th Gen. 40 Gb iPod don't show up in iTunes. The iPod mounts on the Desktop OK, and even shows up in the Source list in iTunes 6.0.2. And I can unmount the iPod by clicking on the little up arrow icon in iTunes. But iTunes reports only 919.2 Mb used and 36.33 Gb free in the iPod.
    I tried copying a song from my iTunes Library to the iPod, and it showed up in iTunes. But when I unmounted, then remounted, the iPod, it no longer showed in iTunes. It was on the iPod, however.
    I tried upgrading to the latest iPod software (iPod Updater 2006-01-10) but that didn't help.
    I ran Software Update and it didn't find any software that needed updating.
    I repaired disk permissions and Shutdown, then powered back up and restarted. Nada.
    The iPod mounts fine on my G4 AlBook running iTunes 4.9, and the contents of the iPod are also visible in iTunes 4.9, so I'm pretty sure it's not a problem on the iPod.
    Don't know if it matters, but all of the music on my Mac and on the iPod was ripped by iTunes from CDs (that I own).
    Anybody else seeing this?
    Is there a fix?
    TIA,

    We're trying to force iTunes to rebuild properly.
    With iTunes not running. Make a copy of the library database file (iTunes Library).
    Try deleting the iTunes Library file. Start iTunes. Does this then show the missing tracks? To get the original playlists back you can import from the original xml file that you saved.
    If you need to get back to the start point just delete the newly created database and .xml files and go back to the originals.

  • AppleTV no longer shows up in iTunes after Snow Leopard security update?

    I just installed the latest security update for Snow Leopard and now my AppleTV no longer shows up in iTunes. I don't know for sure if the security update is actually the cause, but I was able to connect not even an hour earlier in the evening.
    Anyone else seeing this behaviour? I've power cycled the ATV, along with my router with no change.

    Could be the same problem others are having with latest version of iTunes. See this thread:
