Don't be! Keep in mind that these forums are analogous to an emergency room - there's a much higher proportion of sick people...ummm, I mean computers/iPods...in here compared to the general population. The millions of users without problems simply don't post "it works great!".
Hope this helps...

  • IPhone detected as a"digital still camera" and will not show in itunes

    Hi
    My friend bought a 16gb iphone today and when he plugs it into his pc it comes up with auto play and a list of things you can do (obviously the wrong driver) it is not shown in itunes. So far we have re installed itunes, restarted the device, restarted the services but nothing seems to be working.
    He has a windows vista laptop and 16gb iphone, latest itunes.
    Any suggestions

    magic_man,
    The iPhone reports itself as two devices, a Digital camera, and an iPhone.
    The digital camera will use the standard digital camera driver.
    The iPhone will use the iPhone driver, and is then handled by the Apple Mobile Device Service that must be running for iTunes to see the iPhone. With 64-bit Vista if you don't install the 64-bit version of iTunes, it won't be running. There are other situations where it may have been stopped in services, or prevented from updating by security software on the computer.
    The article linked in the thread has some suggestions for making sure the Apple Mobile Device service is running correctly.
    Hope this helps,
    Nathan C.

  • Artwork Import Corrupts File and Does Not Show in iTunes

    I recently loaded some files into iTunes that I received as MP3s. After importing them, I attempted to add artwork. The artwork showed up originally, but everytime I went back to play the song, the artwork would disappear. And, each time I attempted to add the artwork, it caused the song to loop at the beginning. In other words, a 20 second or so snippet would play multiple times before the song would play. This appeared to corrupt the file in that the same thing would occur no matter what file I used. I thenreimported the raw files again, did not add artwork, and they played fine. As soon as I attempted to add the artwork again, the looping problem occurred again. I have used iTunes for a long time, and have never had a problem adding photos to my iTunes or my iPod.

  • My computer sees my iPad as a camera and will not sync with iTunes.

    My computer sees my iPad as a camera and I can't sync with iTunes.

    If there are any photos in the Camera Roll you will get a prompt like you mentioned when connecting your iPad to your computer. It is indeed a good reminder to save those photos to your computer. But if you don't want to copy those photos to your computer then dismiss the window and start iTunes. Once iTunes is running you should e able to sync your iPad.

  • Ipod Touch is not recognised by Windows XP and does not appear in Itunes

    I received an Ipod touch recently and set up an Itunes account and quite happily used Itunes and the Ipod touch for about six weeks without any problems. I installed all of the required software updates for the Ipod but about 3 weeks ago began to have problems.
    1) When connecting the Ipod to the computer through the same USB port as usual, I received a message saying that 'charging is not supported by this accessory'
    2) The Ipod is no longer recognised by Itunes
    3) When connecting via the USB port, message received stating that 'device is not recognised' and it shows up as an unknown device in device manager. When connected it appears to set up empty disk drives under the E, F, G and H drives with an associated system volume also being set up.
    I have re-installed Itunes, Apple Mobile and Bonjour on several occassions, I have cleaned the computers registry, tried the selective start up option via MSCONFIG and ried to re-install the drivers all to no avail.I have also tried a system restore back to before this all began.
    I know the USB ports are working, I have checked them, there is obviously a conflict somewhere that is stopping Apple software working on my computer but as I haven't made any software changes or hardware changes since before this sorry saga began I am running out of ideas.
    Any assistance / ideas would be gratefully received

    I don't know what I did, but now it works!!! :O

  • Took fotos with iPod touch, now laptop thinks iPod is a camera and won't sync with iTunes

    I have been loading vinyls onto iTunes using EZ Vinyl Tape converter. I have sync'd OK until recently when problems encountered with EZ. However there are some tunes on laptop to sync. After using the iPod touch as a camera I now cannot sync.  The laptop thinks the iPod is a camera and does not initiate iTunes, instead the laptop gets a totally blank screen and I cannot do anything, not even switch it off. I have scanned laptop for bugs, viruses etc using norton. I am totally stuck now.
