IPod Touch will not sync or charge on PC

Hi,
This is the first issue I've ever had with my iPod Touch and I've had it for over three years.
When I go to plug in my iPod Touch to the computer, the computer will beep at me saying that something is connected to the USB port but my iTunes won't pop up, and when I bring up iTunes, my iPod won't even show up on iTunes. It also will not charge when it's plugged into the computer. It charges when I plug it into my player in my bedroom, but not my computer.
Computer did a funny reset a while ago, and I'm wondering if this is an iPod issue or a PC issue.

  • Fairly new iPod Touch will not sync or charge sometimes

    This has been a problem since the day after I received my iPod from Apple.  Sometimes, when I connect my iPod touch (newest generation, 32GB) to a charging outlet, be it either connected to a computer or the wall, I get the "Charging is not supported with this accessory" error.  I've tried it on different cables and the problem persists. Additionally, oftentimes after receiving this error, if I unhook the iPod and then hook it back up again, it fails to recognize the connection at all (neither the computer nor the iPod respond in any way; the iPod doesn't charge or sync, and the computer doesn't notice that it has been plugged in).
    I took it to the Geniuses a few days after this happened for the first time.  They inspected the pins on the connector and decided there was no damage to them.  Eventually, they manually closed all of my apps and performed a hard restart and it would connect properly (the guy was even able to plug and unplug it multiple times with it making a good connection every time).  It was decided that the apps had been the problem and I was sent home.  The problem started happening again the day after that and is pretty much a daily occurence, which is problematic because I generally charge my iPod when I get home from work (and thus only have a few hours each night to try and get it to connect succesfully).  Sometimes the hard reset seems to help, other times it is of no use.
    I have tried connecting it to different computers (and, as mentioned above, the wall outlet).  I've tried different charging cables.  There doesn't seem to be any pattern to whether or not it's going to charge, and I don't always get the "Charging is not supported..." error either--occasionally it just refuses to react to being plugged in (and as far as I can tell isn't getting a charge without displaying that it is).  Oh, and it isn't jailbroken, or anything else of the sort... pretty much straight from the factory, with about a dozen apps installed from the app store.  And I checked the last time I could get it to connect to my computer: the software is up to date.
    Any ideas on what the problem is and what I should do about it?

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with Itunes 12.1.1.4 64 bit

    I have recently updated itunes and on the back of doing so my Ipod touch will not sync my library. The Ipod itself is a couple of years old but using iOS 6.1.6.
    I have deleted and re-installed Itunes. I have wiped my Ipod to start again. I have set it to sync over Wi-fi and nothing has worked. I physically plug the Ipod in and it gets detected. If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.
    I have set automatically download Itunes songs etc etc etc and absolutely nothing seems to get it to sync!
    Help!

    You said " If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.".
    How many steps are completed? What is listed in the status bar of iTunes when it stops?

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with home iMac but can with other macs

  • My new ipod touch will not sync to my dlink.

    My new Ipod touch will not sync to my dlink.  My two laptops, and Ipad are already on.  I have tried resetting and still it will not sync.

    What happens when you try to connect to the Wi-Fi? Any error messages? Have you tried a hard reset of the iPod?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Otherwise, work through the remaining troubleshooting suggestions in this Apple support document.
