Ipod Wont sync with windows Xp

Ok i already have an ipod nano 2gb not sure if its a fifth gen or not but it works perferctly fine no problems with it!!!!
I Just bought a second Gen Ipod nano so now i have 2 ipods and one Computer.
I plugged in the the Sec gen into the Comp and it wouldnt register on my computer but my old ipod would so i went and made a new user thinkin that was the problem. (one ipod per itunes?) Once i did that i waited untill the comp was done gettin all set up and i downloaded Itunes 7.3.1 and then plugged the new Ipod into the Comp. still same problem as i was havin before not registring with the comp.
So i Did the 5 R's and tried again still same problem.
Then i Right clicked "my Computer" And went into "device managers" and it shows a ? mark where the new ipod should be.
Then i tried Reinstallin the Driver but it says "Cant find proper Hardware" So i tried to update see if that works and got the same message.
Then i forced The New Ipod into Disk mode and restored the settings and tried again but still got the same thing.
Then i tried to change the usb port and that didnt work so i figured i would see if my old ipod would work and it does along with the old Usb Cable.
And thats as far as i have gotten and now im stumped any Solutions would be great!!!!

Get rid of Musicmatch. iTunes does not work well if it is used along with Musicmatch.

My Ipod wont sync with my new library and I dont know why not. It will show that it is connected through home sharing, but it is only avalible when i am with my laptop! I dont know how to get this current library as mine on my ipod, help!

My ipod will not sync with my laptop. I have had previous Ipods in the past, but since then I have grown out of most of my music. Also about a year and a half ago I got a new laptop. I used the same Itunes name, but now on my new Ipod it has all of my old music and it refuses to download any of my new music. When I am using home sharing though, it says that I can turn on my "Library" but that my "music" is what is perminately on the computer. This only works though if I am near my laptop. When I try to transfer my library onto my ipod it wont let me. My music on my ipod is completely different than my normal itunes library on my computer and I have no idea how to transfer it. When I plug it in, it wont sync at all, or show that there is any device even plugged in. I am frustrated and tired of not having any of my music, so someone please help!!!

You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:

Ipod WILL sync with Windows Media Player....not iTunes!!!!

To no avail, my ipod is not recognized in iTunes... however it is by my computer, and my Windows Media Player will sync to it...
I have tried to Reset, Restore, Reinstall... all of that, but nothing has worked. I have Vista, anyone have any ideas? I would much rather use iTunes, so I can download some games, and such... but I CAN work around with Windows Media Player using mp3 files... no album art

have you ever found a solution to your problem? I would like to know, because I'm having the same issues with my Nano. If so, help me Please......

Ipod wont sync with Itunes

Hello!
Ive plugged my Ipod into my laptop with Itunes open and it normally syncs automatically, when i came to do it today it wont sync and when i try to do it from the file menu the sync option is greyed out. Itunes wont even show my Ipod on the left hand side as it normally does. Help please?
Thanks

Sumiko, I'd suggest you start a new topic with your issue (use the "Post a new topic" link at the top of each main topic page). It's generally better to ask a question as a new topic rather than as a reply in someone else's thread. It's more courteous to the original poster, and is more likely to get your question the attention it deserves.
Regards.

My ipod wont sync with mac

i have an older (wheel) 64gb ipod. It is not letting me sync the songs i have on my ipod with my itunes library. I get a msg that says if yousync this ipod to your library you will lose all your songs and movies. I dont want to lose anything instead I want toadd the songs and movies on my ipod to my mac library. This was never a problem before but I do have 5 other mac items sync to the same account. Is that's what causing the problem?

Hello KatarinaW,
While not specifically for Windows 8, the following article provides several options for transferring your library that can be used in most versions of Windows.

This article will step you through the process of enabling 'manual mode' on your iPod Classic, which will allow you to sync it with multiple computers without disrupting the current contents of the iPod.

IPod wont sync with iTunes. Error Message occurs.

I just updated to the latest version of iTunes and when i try to sync my iPod i get the message "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed properly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod software." I tried this and it would not redownload because i already have the newest version. I also tried doing what Apple reccomended by deleting itunes, afterwards itunes would not download so i did a system restore so now everytime i open up itunes "Windows has to configure iTunes." What can i do to fix this problem? It is really upsetting me.

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

Ipod accidently synced with Windows Media Player

When I hooked up my Ipod to my Windows computer and had Media Player up and running, it started to sync my files to my ipod....again...even though the same files are already on the ipod from itunes. When i sync my ipod now from itunes, it shows over 3 GB in "other"....the orange colored markings showing double the amount of music i'm supposed to have on there. How can I delete this "other" files from the ipod, which are uselessly taking up space without doing me any good at all?????? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

Ok, I am definitely very technologically challenged, and I got a nano for christmas, and I have no idea how to get my music files from windows media player to itunes. I use limewire, which then puts all files in Media player, but my roomie accidentally deleted all my music from limewire, so now all that is in my itunes is all the music he downloaded from limewire after he deleted the library. Please help!!! I really wanna use my nano!!
Thanks

Can the iPod Touch Sync with Windows XP

I am contimplating purchasing an iPod Touch to replace my Palm Pilot. Okay, you can stop laughing now. I intend on using the iPod touch for mostly contacts and calendar events. I also realize there is no way to transfer my current information on my computer to the iPod Touch. But is there a way / program that I can load on to Windows XP that will sync information?

- If yoo use the Communities search box in the upper right and search for palm and restrict the search to the iPhone forum you will find out how to import your Palm data.you will find out how to get your Palm contacts and some other stuff into your iPod
If you purchase a 3G or later iPod you can go to icloud.com (requires iOS 5 or later) on the computer and access/edit/add contacts, calendar and maybe some other stuff.

3rd generation ipod wont sync with Itunes

My ipod is a 3rd generation and my software version is 1.1.3 (the newest available). It says that it is connected to itunes, starts to sync, but nothing happens. I have tried every step of the troubleshooting guide for my ipod 3rd generation. Now I just have an ipod with all of this memory space that won't sync. I did the last step which required me to restore to factory setting and still, nothing. Please help!

That is a 4th gen iPod, and it should work with a USB port (or a FireWire port).
If you have not done a standard Restore on the iPod using iTunes, you may want to do that next. The Restore button is on the iPod's Summary screen in iTunes. This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. So, if the cause is related to software (or data corruption), and there is no hardware issue, a Restore should fix it.
WARNING: The 4th gen iPod (when used on a USB port) will ask that you connect it to a USB power adapter as the last step in the Restore process. These white square power adapters originally came with this model. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, you will not be able to complete the Restore, and the iPod will become non-functional. So don't do it unless you have one. A third-party power adapter may or may not work for this purpose. The USB port on your computer does not work for this purpose.
