Ipod wont show through MyComputer or Itunes

Hi all,
My Ipod wont show on my work computer but displays on every other PC!
It comes up with the 'Safely Remove Hardware' Icon but doesn't display anywhere else in windows. I have restarted the Ipod Service but when Itunes opens, it says the Ipod needs to be restored, but not on any other PC, it works perfectly.
Any ideas? I am running the latest versions of Itunes and the Ipod software is up to date!
Regards,
Simon Anderson

just the itune problem and also itune 7.0 is not that great

You created a new AppleID?
Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account?

Well, if you've tried "everything" then there is really nothing left to try, now is there?

HT201210 My iPod constantly shows the 'connect to iTunes' sign, how to fix this?

My iPod is showing the 'connect to iTunes' sign, even when I connect to iTunes and do everything it says to do. I have repeated this process several times and still no change. I believe it has wiped everything off of my iPod but I can't access anything on it as it is always on the same screen. Can it be fixed?

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

or

Ipod wont show up in windows or itunes

Just bought a 30gig vid. ipod and installed latest version of itunes. I tried to transfer songs but I can't even do that because my ipod, even though connected via USB cable, won't show up in "My Computer" or on itunes. I tried to reinstall itunes but it said can't stop ipod services. Same thing happened when I tried to repair it and restarting the comp doesn't help.
PS It lets me charge when plugged in my usb which is not a 2.0
Any suggestions?

yea, i installed latest version of itunes, but even if i wanted to, my comp won't let me repair or uninstall itunes via control panel nor using the setup.exe (it says that ipod services cannot be stopped) i tried to stop the services manually but it didn't work either.

Ipod wont show up in itunes after i restore to factory settings

My ipod does not show up in my itunes list but it shows up in my computer as a drive
it all started when i got my ipod back after getting it fixed ( it was a problem with the battery) well it said that i needed to restore the factory settings so i did then a message came up and said your ipod is now restarting it will come back to your iptunes list after it has restarted.... but it didnt
and now when i plug my ipod in i get a bubble come up that says:
"windows was unable to save all the data for the file F:\iPod_control the data has been lost the error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware or netowrk connection please try and save this file elsewhere"
i have done everything i can to try and fix this (5 R's and such) but i have gotten no results
please help quickly as i use my ipod all the time and cant function without it =]

I have a similar issue.
Mine shows in iTunes and in PC. It will also allow me to sync.
But when I do sync, it runs fine for about 10 minutes, then I get an error similar to yours with a directory location. It keeps syncing and will periodically show the errors. Then it will lock up.
I have run chkdsk, awindows utility (chkdsk [driver letter]: /R /F) over the iPod when it has been restored and it found nearly 400mb of bad sectors.
I though this would fix the problem but is has not. When I run chkdsk over it again, it does not find anymore bad sectors (it does however tell me that it has 400mb of bad sectors logged.)
I am banging my head against a wall trying to fix this, or even find out what the issue really is. I assume it is a dodgey hard drive, but I do not want to replace it and still have the problem.

5th Generation iPod wont show up on itunes

I recently got an iPod from someone, but when I plug it in my computer it won't show up in iTunes. When I got it, it had no battery at all. So I charged it and now I would say it is at about 75%. The iPod works fine, but I tried resetting it a few times and that didn't do anything. I want to restore it to factory settings but I need iTunes to do that, and iTunes isn't recognizing my iPod. It is a 5th generation 60GB. The iPod currently is fully charged.
