ISync unable to see iPod Shuffle

I have two iPod minis and one iPod Color display synched to my G4 iMac with iSynch. I now want to add an iPod Shuffle to iSynch.
It is connected via a Shuffle Dock and the iPod Shuffle appears ok on my desktop.
However, I can't get iSynch to see the Shuffle. After scanning it says 'No Device Found'.
Any idea why? Is there a limit to the number of devices I can use with iSynch?

The iPod Shuffle is not compatable with iSync (I
guess they didnt make it b/c of no screen, etc.)

  • Unable to charge ipod shuffle

    I am unable to charge my ipod shuffle. It will not show in itunes or on my computer.

  • Ahhh, help please, can't see ipod shuffle in itunes

    I've downloaded the latest itunes after i bought a 1GB 2nd gen ipod shuffle. I plug it into USB and immediately it pops up asking me whether I wish to play or open the folder (like it does when I plug in a memory stick or my mp3 player). I choose cancel and then open itunes.
    I can't see any option to add the ipod in itunes though, there's no ipod setup assistant that appears when I plug it into the USB port and I can't see any option to search for it.
    I can see the ipod in My computer on the I drive, so the PC recognises it. How can I get itunes to do the same?
    Thanks!

    Well, I actually got a bit further now (although quite by accident). I went into "My Computer" and clicked on "System Properties." Then clicked on the "Hardware" tab and "Device Manager." When the list was populated, there was my iPod! It had a yellow warning sign next to it, so I clicked on it and followed the prompts...NOW my computer recognizes it and it shows up when I log into iTunes. HOWEVER, now I am getting the "cannot sync b/c the required disk cannot be found." *sigh* I'm a little more hopeful...maybe the tech support can help me from here??

  • TS1372 Any tips for "Unable to restore iPod shuffle"?

    I am trying to update an iPod Shuffle 2nd generation I haven't used in several years. I keep getting the error message saying "Unable to restore I  Pod shuffle due to errors.......(long list of choices)
    I unplugged it, repluged it, again I was asked if I wanted to update the software, I said yes, and I don't know what's happening now! This shuffle has hardly ever been  used and I want to use it now when I bicycle...Any suggestions?

    Are you connecting the USB cable to a direct USB port on the Mac (instead of a hub or spare keyboard port)?  Are you using the USB cable with a mini-dock at the iPod end (the one it came with)?

  • Updater doesn't see iPod shuffle

    My iPod Shuffle shows up on the desktop. The amber recharge light is blinking. When iTunes opens, I get the following message: "iTunes has detected a software update for the iPod. Would you like to install it now?" When I click "Okay", the updater opens and I get the following message: "An unexpected error occurred". When I click "okay", the updater now tells me to plug in an iPod to update it. My iPod is plugged in and charging, and is on the desktop. When I quit the updater, my iPod does not appear in the iTunes source list.
    I then quit and reopened iTunes. This time when prompted regarding the software update, I click cancel. iTunes now opens with my iPod listed in the Source list. However, when I go to add songs to the iPod I get the following message: "Some of the songs in the iTunes music library were not copied to the iPod because your iPod software is too old. Go to www.apple.com/ipod to get the latest iPod software update."
    I've reinstalled the updater 3 times now. I got the same results as described above each time. The updater doesn't see the iPod. What is the "unexpected error"? Why doesn't the Updater see the iPod?
    Also also - I ordered, received, and installed an Iogear 4 port USB 2.0 pci card, hoping against hope that that would solve the issue. It didn't. I've been working on this since the day after Christmas. The problem seems so uniquely simple, and yet I've never been more frustrated with an Apple product.
    Why won't the updater recognize my iPod and allow me to install the software? I personally believe that there is some communications glitch between iTunes 6.0.1, OS 10.3.9, and iPod updater. Any word on new versions coming out of the Apple bat cave?
    Thanks for any help.
    a very frustrated... Gee

  • Unable to detect ipod shuffle

    having some problem with my ipod shuffle, itunes cannot detect the ipod. from the windows explorer its indicate that the ipod is not formatted. what will i do for the itunes to detect it? pls. help.
      Windows 2000  

    Hi
    Close all applications. Connect the iPod shuffle to the computer in My computer/windows explorer right click on the iPod drive and click on Format. After formating right click on the formated drive and Eject it and then disconnect from the computer.
    Launch the iPod updater and connect the iPod shuffle to the rear USB port of the computer(if you are using a desktop) and then restore the iPod shuffle and transfer the songs from iTunes.

Thank you. Tom

    The device is still under limited warranty (it's less than 1 year old), but going through Apple's support site, they want a deposit of $99 to fix it, and I can buy a new one for $79. Thus, I'd appreciate any advice from folks as to what I may do. Thank you!
    The "deposit" is a guarantee against return of your old one after you've received the replacement...you'll be charged IF you don't return it.
    BTW, on-line Apple Store has refurbished 2nd Gen shuffles for $49taxshipping.

  • TS1538 Unable to see iPod Touch 2G in Windows Vista Unless User is Admin

    Problem: Newly acquired iPod Touch 2G cannot be recognized as a device on a Vista 64-bit system unless the user is logged in as an admin. Then it is recognized correctly and able to work in iTunes. Obviously, having the user logged in as an admin defeats the purpose of administrative tools. We've tried every article recommendation in the knowledgebase, including a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes as the last step. We did this while she was logged in as an admin to make it easier, and sure enough, everything worked perfectly. Now she is logged in under her normal profile but the iPod is not recognized. What else is recommended? We can't have her logged in as an admin all the time just to sync up her iPod. Help!

    Have you tried everything here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    including:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Tried another cable
    Tried another computerto help determine if yo have an iPod or computer problem.

    Is the Shuffle configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  See this article for more details.

  • HT1459 Just bought a new ipod shuffle for my kid and cannot set it up because it does not show up in itunes. Also the charging light does not light up. what could be wrong, as i am able to see both my iphone and ipad on itunes on the same pc?

    Just bought a new 4th gen iPod Shuffle for my kid. Problem is I cannot do the initial set up, as the device does not show up on iTunes on my PC. Also the charging does not light up. Any ideas on what could be wrong, as I am able to see both my iphone and iPad on iTunes using the same PC?

    I also tried manually underlining a few things on the new iPad and when highlighting a paragraph, it would skip a few lines and the line would go through a few as well. Looks like a major iBooks glitch needs to be addressed here.

  • HT1941 Hi i have recently updated my version of iTunes in order to sync music from my macbook air to my new ipod shuffle. After a successful installation the application does not launch and I am unable to oepn iTunes of access my music! Someone please hel

    Hi,
    I have recently updated my iTunes to the latest version in order to sync music onto my new ipod shuffle. However after a successful installation the application does not launch or open? There are no error messages. The application is just unresponsive.
    I have already checked the compatibility with Safari, my operating system and checked my firewall is not blocking it - all is fine.
    Does anyone have any other resolutions?
    Many thanks

    Hi Carolyn,
    Thank you for your time and response. The trouble is I am unable to launch iTunes? I have restarted my macbook air a number of times to try and initiate the application but the issue persists and the application remains unresponsive. Will not launch?
    Thanks
