Strange iPod behavior.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer. This happened after I agreed to a failed software update.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either. This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed. How can I get it going again?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable
- Try another charging source
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

HT1386 Ive been through the troubleshooting. My ipad (1st G) &my ipod touch wont come up in itunes when connect them 2 my comp. It's not the USB cord or ports, everything is updated &my app store wont come up on ipad when on wifi. how to fix these probs

My ipad (1st Generation) and my ipod touch will not come up in itunes when I connect them to my computer. My computer is a MAC and it is brand new with the updated system. Also, when I am connected to my wireless internet at home, my app store will open on my ipod touch, but it will not open on my ipad.
My USB ports work with other devices that I have, such as my camera, and I have tried plugging in the ipad and ipod to different USB ports on the computer, but itunes still won't recognize them. The USB cord that I use works. I know this because I use the same cord to plug into the wall charger and it charges both the ipad and ipod fine. Also, my itunes has been updated to the most recent version (I update it every time that it's an option). I HAVE noticed, though, that my ipad and ipod never ask me to update itunes on the actual devices themselves.
What can I do to solve this issue??? THANKS!

Back up first (Time machine) as much as possible.
Un-install and re install Itunes.
First and foremost download the updated iTunes from apple website. After downloading Uninstall itunes and all its component ( Dont worry, itunes library where your movies and music is located will not be deleted. Please follow instructions on the apple support page). The problem might be the AppleMobileDevice.kext

my ipod wont come off itunes and usb plug in

Did you:
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

IPod wont come up in iTunes

When I connect my iPod to my mac, it is reconized by profiler, so the usb ports definetly works, but will not open in iTunes, when I had a pc it would just automaticlly open, it dosen't here.

Hi skippertech;
Since you are looking for help with an iPod, of type unknown, maybe you would have better luck if you posted over in the forum for whatever iPod you are having the problem getting connected.

My 4gb nano wont show up on itunes when i plug it in

I have a Toshiba lab top, it has worked before. And today when i tried to charge it, it took 6 hours to charge, and the computer was not hibernating ect...it still will not fully charge. I have plugged it into all of the 4 USB connections. But still when I plug it in and I pull up iTunes myself the devices column doesn't show up, which means I can't add new music pictures etc... I have tried all of the 5 r's. Can anyone help me????????

I could not get my iPod nano (3rd gen) to show up as a device in iTunes when I used my USB 2.0 port. My computer recognizes the hardware as an iPod but says the hardware may not have been installed properly and may not work. However, my 2nd gen iPod nano works just fine when connected to this very same 2.0 port using the same cable. My 3rd generation iPod nano will work and show up in iTunes if I connect it to the slower USB 1.1 port on the same computer. The 2nd gen iPod will work fine from either USB port. I suspect the USB 2.0 driver may need to be updated. But I have seen nothing that this is known problem.

The screen on my iPhone 4 turned black while i was using it-it was not dropped or damaged in anyway. The phone itself is still working as it comes up in itunes when I plug the phone into my computer, but the screen is completley black. What can I do?

The screen on my iPhone has gone black while I was using it. It just "shut off". The phone is still working as I can hear/see it when it plugs into the computer, but the screen just wont turn on. I've tried the soft reset "holding down home and lock screen" and i've tried to restore settings. I went to the apple store and they said I had to send it to my provider (in another country) but my phone contract has run out.
Is there a way to fix this?
If not, is there some way apple can replace the phone? It's less than 2 years old. Surely the screen shouldn't just give out like that.
Thank you

My ipod doesn't register with itunes when i plug it in to the computer

When I pulg my ipod classic in, itunes comes up right away, but it does not show my device connected to it so I can't add the music I've purchased to my ipod.

Well you could've activated on your computer with Itunes and a couple of settings that'll help you.

After replacing new battery on iphone 5 it wont come on and vibrates when i plug in usb

After replacing my iphone 5 battery and checking connections several times my phone wont boot up. Its connecting to my computer no probs just no display. I tried to do a soft restart and restore it but got nowhere. I've checked there was no damage to any connecters and they are all fine and then gently blew it with compressed air to no avail. I tried putting my old battery in and its the same thing. If I try charge it it vibrates twice every 5 seconds. That's the only thing it will do. Any help would be appreciated
Cheers
Pete

TS1424 My iPod wont connect to the iTunes Store when I am about to buy an app what do I do?

My iPod wont connect to the iTunes Store when I am about to get an app when I go to enter my password it says it can't connect to iTunes Store. What do I do?

Don't worry a lot of people, including me, are having this problem. I think it's a problem going on at Apple's end, hopefully it will be up soon.
