IShuffle doesn't charge after updating to iTunes 8.1

I have the first gen iShuffle (1GB) & it's been working perfectly ever since I bought it last year but after updating my iTunes to 8.1 last week it doesn't charge nor play my songs in my iShuffle, it plays them in my Library but not on my iShuffle.
I don't know why or what's the problem? because my iShuffle still works when I remove it from my computer, it's just when I try to play it on my comp it doesn't work.
what should I do?

The usb port is directly on your macbook. Some people have usb hubs which plug into the usb port to multiply the number of usb devices you can have. Like this one:

Think plugging in a toaster directly to the wall versus plugging into a power strip.
Sometimes having a usb hub in the middle can mess with things... especially when the item draws power via the usb port. (like the shuffle does).
If you have a hub....try plugging the shuffle in directly on the macbook and see if it helps.

  • AFter updating to iTunes 11, my first generation Apple TV no longer automatically syncs when I open iTtunes nor does it display its playlists in iTunes.

    AFter updating to iTunes 11 my first generation Apple TV wasn't displayed any longer in iTunes. I had to relink it and after that it no longer automatically sysnc when I open iTunes, nor does it display its play lists. It still has its photos and play lists and it is linked up for streaming but does not sync as it used to do. Is it possible iTunes 11 doesn't support first generation Apple TV the same way it used to.?

    Yes, the first generation model still works with iTunes 11. It sounds as though you have set it up as a streaming only library.
    Navigate to Settings > Computers > Your Library on the Apple TV, you may be told you will lose all synced content, but you can sync it back afterwards, you won't lose any purchased content that has yet to be transferred. Then select Settings > Computers > Connect To iTunes, note the passcode that appears on screen, click on the device in iTunes and enter the passcode when prompted.

  • Cd's won't burn after update to iTunes 6

    New poster here (but have been reading for months).
    I am an official idiot. Backround: After much stress, I solved my burn problms that started after updating to iTunes 5, thanks to this forum. I went from the error at the very end of the burn to at least being able to burn very slowly.
    Finally updated to version 6, after reading here that nothing changed about burning from v5 to v6, and thinking I'd waited long enough that the bugs would be out of v6-- HA!
    Now I can't burn at all --itunes hangs up right after reading the tracks. I can hear the disc spin then stop completely.Help!

    I'm suddenly having burning problems also. Was working fine and will burn using other programs so I don't think it's the drive. I can click to start burning a playlist, it runs through checking the playlist, checks all of the songs, then the entire program freezes. It doesn't give an error message to help me figure out the problem. Not trying to burn songs from iTunes store, just my own compilation. Using the same disks I always have. The only thing I've done recently is run a Microsoft Security Update. Here is the info from my CD Diagnostics:

  • After updating to iTunes 7, can't find "purchased" playlist in Front Row

    After updating to iTunes 7 (and QT 7), I discovered that Apple has moved the "purchased" list of music to the "store" section. Therefore, I cannot access my "purchased" list from Front Row. Does anyone know how to fix this? My primary use for Front Row was to play my "purchased" playlist from a distance.
    I thought about creating a playlist called "purchased" but that seemed messy since there would be two of them in the sidebar. I also considered reconfiguring Front Row, but don't know how to do that.
    I don't NEED to be able to do this because I can browse my purchased songs in other menus, such as "Library" or "Recently Added." But, I really like browsing my purchased songs separately from my other songs.
    Before upgrading to iTunes 7, Front Row allowed me to do this, but not after the upgrade. Now, iTunes has removed "Purchased" music from the Playlist menu, and placed it next to the iTunes Store.
    Is there a way to reconfigure Front Row so that "Purchased" is included as one of the song menus I can browse?
    17" iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.83 Intel Core Duo, 160gb, 512mb

    Although I appreciate the empathy, I think we're having different problems. I have no problem playing the songs I've purchased from iTunes, but Front Row doesn't allow me to select the "Purchased" playlist. I can do this in iTunes, but not in Front Row.

  • Ipod classic won't mount after updating to itunes 11.0.2

    ipod classic won't mount after updating to itunes 11.0.2.
    I updated to itunes 11.0.2 today, after delaying it for a looong time (I have it @ work and don't like the new layout).
    Since then, none of my ipods will mount/show up/update. I've tried all USB ports, 3 ipods, 3 cords. Wondering if you know of any issues. I've restarted the mac about 15-20 times today since as soon as I hook up an ipod, itunes immediately spins the beach ball and won't let me click out of it.
    I've restarted the ipods 10+ times each.
    All of the ipods DO show up on my desktop though. Just not in itunes anywhere with 11.0.2.
    One more thing: It's not the cables or the ipods: they both mount fine when connected to my laptop (running old *** 10.4.11 and itunes 9.)
    Machine is a Mac Pro running 10.6.8.

    Finding this Post took some time but I thought it was me talking when I read it. I was having the exact same issue. I have a G3 I've been upgrading like mad, including a Sonnet G4-500 CPU a Maxtor 60gb & 80gb HDs 1gb of RAM a new LaCie Firewire800 PCI card Graphics card etc. the latest was installing Panther 10.3.9 on the new 80gb HD and also swapping out the old CD-ROM and replacing with the (Apple standard) Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110D combo drive in it's place. got everything up and booted and poof! no burning. Toast worked read/write no problem. iTunes could read and import no problem, but wouldn't burn a CD.
    Downloaded "PatchBurn 3.1.3" installed, re-booted and all is OK in burner land again :>)
    I wanted to just post my additional thanks to the lead to Patchburner, and I'm going to donate to the cause. It's worth a $20 donation just for my joy of not throwing this computer out the window!!

    After updating with iTunes 12.1 for Windows 8.1, when I restarted my computer, my headphones no longer work. According to my computer they do. Is this an iTunes issue? I did the audio troubleshooting and it says everything is fine. I have a Toshiba Satellite L75D-A7280.

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • Problem after updating to iTunes 10.5 on Windows Vista.. I can no longer access the iTunes store..

    Hi
    After updating to iTunes 10.5 on Windows Vista I have found that I can no longer access the iTunes store... I am left with a blank iTunes screen with the loading bar stuck at halfway..
    All other features seem to work... only opening  the iTunes store is failing..
    I have ran the diagnostics feature and this says everything is ok, so I'm a bit stuck
    Please help

    Purple-Gecko...all that I can say is, "Boom!!!"  You are THE man/woman, whichever the case may be.
    The "netsh winsock reset" command worked like a charm for my machine (running Windows XP SP3).  I have had two weeks of frustration with this issue and finally found your post which got me back online with the iTunes store.  My problem accessing the iTunes store began once I downloaded and installed iTunes 10.5 in preparation to upgrade to OS5.  Once 10.5 was installed, I could open iTunes and access everything except the store (which prevented any of my devices from being able to sync). I followed all of the suggestions that I could find in Apple Support and the suggestions that I was emailed from Apple's support techs.  I unistalled all Apple software and reinstalled iTunes multiple times, and still could not access the store. 
    Your suggestion is the only "cure" that I have found.
    I thank you, my iPod thanks you, and my iPhone 4 thanks you for taking the time to post this fix.

  • ? after updating to itunes 10.6.3 on my pc, cannot transfer music files to iphone 4s

    after updating to itunes 10.6.3 on my pc windows 7, i cannot transfer music from pc to iphone 4s

    When I try to "drag and drop" a song, it just does not allow me to do it (circle with line thru it). I should also mention that I just changed PC's as well.  I tsnsferred all of the music files from the hdd of the old to the new. After reading some of the other posts, I think this might have more to do with the problem than the switch to itunes 10.6.3?
