Ipod wants updated version of iTunes, but running Windows 2000
I get the following when I connect to my work computer.
The IPOD “MY IPOD” cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 7.6 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes.
I am running Windows 2000 so I cannot upgrade to the version it is asking for. If I cannot use iTunes at work with my ipod, so be it. But I would like to be able to charge my ipod while using it. How do I fix this issue?
I have the ipod classic 80, and using USB port.
Charging at work is nice but you should have enough charge time to listen all day at work (my 160GB Classic gets about 47 hours of music play time between charges) and then charge it up in the evenings when you get home. Just plug into some powered speakers you might already have.

I am trying to upgrade an ipod cart of version 2.2 ipods to 4.2 so that I can download apps that
require this version. When I try to update any of the ipods I keep getting an error message that
culminates with an error -1. I cannot believe that they all have hardware errors. Any ideas of what to
try next? I have an updated copy of Snow Leopard with all current updates and an updated version
of iTunes with all current updates.what a long post....Apple, btw, does not read this stuff, so ranting, raving, and complaining here might make you feel good, but it does no good at all. That being said, I, too have a Mac Pro Quad Core Xeon with 6 gigs of ram and an nVidia 8800 GT graphics card (not as good as yours, alas) and I've had no problems at all with it. Yes, it doesn't have Thunderbolt, but maybe we Mac pro owners will get lucky and someone will come out with an adapter (probably not). No, you probably don't have to throw away your Mac Pro, but if you do, I'll take it, for a small "recycling" fee >:-) That was a joke. Yes, the Mac Pro's future isn't quite clear, YET. Hopefully that will improve very soon. As for not being able to upgrade to Mountain Lion. Don't worry about that too much, Nobody is forcing you to do that. Your Mac Pro won't quit working if it isn't installed. From what I've heard, you should give the new OS a chance, and wait to get it, in case there might be some bugs, or stuff not working with the new OS, which has been known to happen. Yes, we Mac Pro owners don't like being treated like mushrooms-kept in the dark, and being fed......... but Apple is Apple and it will do what it does, and there is nothing you or me can really do to change that. All I can say is....trust, have faith, be patient, go for a walk, do something else to take your mind off of this problem. IF apple decides to drop the Mac Pro for good, and that's a big "IF", I think they will anger a whole bunch of people
which isn't good. However, that hasn't happened...YET. Let us hope that it doesn't

IPod classic 160gb recognized in itunes but not Windows
Bought this week and I have spent the last 3 hours trying to get this to work.
Windows says that the "hardware is installed and ready to use", but the iPod is not found in "My Computer".
Device Manager -> Apple mobile device usb driver says it is working properly. I have removed it, reinstalled it, restarted my computer, done the "5 R's" of Ipod troubleshooting nonsense and I am about to give up.
Let me also note that in device manager under disk drives there is "Apple Ipod usb device" when I go into properties under device status it says no drivers are installed for this device. I dont know if this has anything to do with it but if it does Windows says that I have the latest drivers for this device which is making my brain melt because it just said there are NO drivers! *deep breath...exhale.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.ok great now I see the ipod icon in my computer, thanks!. On to my next dilemma.
It says that when in this disk mode I can only go through itunes when adding files otherwise they will be just data files.
This is my first ipod ( ive been using a creative zen for years). I have not a single itunes file. What are my options for putting my entire 60 gb library on my comp hd into my itunes library without adding folder by folder. It would take forever manually. -

My iPod shuffle ( 1st or 2nd generation) will not recharge and does not show when the doc is connected to my MacBook Pro. I'm running the latest updated version of iTunes.
Hello Jane Benstock,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
It sounds like the next best step to take would be to reset the iPod Shuffle.
Check out this article named Resetting iPod shuffle found here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655.
All the best,

I can not sync my IPhone to My Imac. I have the latest version of ITunes on my Imac. I have tried reseting my phone (3), changing ports. Nothing works. I was thinking maybe my phone has the earlier version of ITunes but I can't update it.
Did you already have a look at this article?

I upgraded to iTunes 11.0. My iPod Nano 4th Version will sync, but music and playlists will not appear to manage and add more songs. Is there a fix?
If I go from 'Devices' to Summary and then Music, I only get one option-Sync Music,There is a box on this page but the options within it are grayed out. If I tick the Sync Music option I get this message-
'Are you sure you want to remove existing music,films,ect, from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?
'Music synced to (my ipods name) from other itunes libraries will be removed and items will be synced from this itunes library' I have only ever used itunes on this PC and the 'Manually manage music and videos' is ticked but
that must be a default setting as I haven't ticked it. -
I can't connect to the itunes store. I have the latest version of itunes on my windows 7 computer. I can connect to itunes from my ipad and ipod but no my windows computer. i dont get any error message, the bar at the top just says accessing itunes
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I just installed the latest version of iTunes on my windows 8 computer. I was trying to transfer an audiobook I downloaded through overdrive media console to my iPod nano. Overdrive says it was transferred successfully, but it is not in my iPod. I have had no problems transferring audiobooks until I downloaded this new version. Help!
I just realized that part of my post got cut off. There was a message that i could not connect to the Apple store (and my genius stopped running).

My ipod touch is disabled, i installed the latest version of itunes, but cant figure out how to restore the ipod, can anyone help?
If you run into the "another installation" message even after the reboot of the PC (which is an excellent idea by HTP ProXy), reregistering your Windows Installer Service is worth a try.
First, launch a command prompt as an administrator. In your Start search, type cmd then right-click on the cmd that comes up and select "Run as administrator".
At the command prompt:
Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /unregister and hit enter.
Type %windir%\system32\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
Type %windir%\syswow64\msiexec.exe /regserver and hit enter.
Restart the PC and try another reinstalll.
