IPod Touch not recognized by Vista

I just purchased a new Dell 1530 w/Vista Premium..When I tried to synch my iPod touch w/the laptop the computer did not recognize the iPod. My previous computer was a Dell w/XP and I had no problem.
Any suggestion? I love my iPod and would hate to have to get rid of it!

    I have a laptop that runs windows 7, my ipod classic and nano all get recognized by computer and itunes.  When I plug in my ipod touch, it isn't recognized by either, but when I plug it into another computer or laptop running windows 7, it is recognized.  I have run all the recommended steps, reinstalled itunes several times, why won't this work?

  • Ipod Touch Not Recognized By PC or iTunes?

    I need help with my iPod touch!  I've attempted this on three different computers ( one running XP, one running Vista, and one running 7)  The computer doesn't recognize the iPod at all when its plugged in ( not even the "tone" that tells you something is connected) and it does not show up in iTunes.  I've run through every troubleshooting option on the apple support page ( uninstall/reinstall iTunes, checked for third party software, made sure the mobile device driver is working) and I just bought a brand new USB cord to make sure that it wasn't that.  Nothing.  It isn't showing that its charging (not the green battery charge symbol), but when the battery dies it will charge enough to turn it on and give me about 15% of battery life.  I'm really stumped -- I've only had this for about 18 months and already had to send it back to Apple twice for service/replacement.  Is there anything else I can do short of paying Apple to fix it AGAIN?

  • Ipod touch not recognized by itunes in windows 8

    Hi, I have an ipod touch. It has been working well along windows 8 all this while until 1 week ago, itunes can no longer detect the ipod touch. Funnily, when I tried connecting it other computers using Windows 7, it could be detected. I have already tried almost everything such as uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, AMDS restart. What else can I do? I really need to sync some songs into my ipod touch for a run this weekend. Please help!

  • Ipod touch not recognized by itunes

    After installing the recent update for itunes I believe it is 11.0.1, my ipod touch no longer is detected by itunes. It is not listed under the devices. It is recognized by my computer but not my itunes. When I plug it in a screen on the ipod pops up asking if I trust this computer I hit trust and nothing happens. I can't sync it via wi-fi either. I have tried reinstalling Itunes and restarting my computer and none of that has worked.

    It is iTunes 11.1.4

  • Why isn't my ipod touch not recognized by itunes it's a new ipod?

    I just bought a new Ipod touch nano because my old one was old and not recognized by itunes. Now my new isn't recognized by itunes either.

    Hello, priscilla235. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below.  Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

  • Ipod touch not recognized on computer

    My computer does not recognize my ipodtouch.  I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, but the computer does not show the ipod.  I tried to follow suggestions and find the apple usb driver, but it does not seem to have updated the driver.  (The driver is located on the C drive, but the date is not from today's update... it is an older driver and does not open, it asked Open With... )  ERRRR, I'm disappointed that the Ipod Touch was working, and now it's not charging or recognized on the computer.

  • Ipod touch not recognized

    My Ipod touch is not recognized by Itunes or Windows Explorer. I have followed Apple's troublehsooting but it did not solve the problem.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can provide.

    Thanks for your assistance
    I have tried the solution you mentioned.
    I uninstalled Itunes and all other Apple software as instructed and then reinstalled the latest version
    USB port is working with other devices
    Tried a different cable
    The ipod charges with the DC charger or other compueter
    Ipod is working well
    In my opinion, the problem is related to the computer. Hardware is working well
