ITunes 7.0 will not recognize my iPod Video
I'm new to this forum and somewhat of a novice when it comes to figuring this stuff out on my own. I happily downloaded 7.0 this morning because I purchased one of the tv shows that is earmarked for version 7.0. The download process went smoothly and I rebooted my computer as instructed. Regrettably, iTunes will not now recognize my pod! Fortunately, approximately 75% of all things purchased is backed up onto data discs and I'm going to back up the rest later today. However, I'm now skiddish and would like some advice as to how to fix this problem. How do I get Version 7.0 to recognize my iPod?
Windows XP Version 2002
Dell Windows XP Version 2002; Service Pack 1

Can you do me a favor? Can you see if bouncing the iPodService -- i.e.
1. Quit iTunes.
2. Right click on "My Computer". Select "Manage"
3. Select "Services and Applications" in the left hand panel.
4. Double click on "Services" in the right hand panel.
5. Double click on "iPodService" in the right hand panel.
6. This brings up a dialog.
7. In this dialog, push the "stop" button.
8. Make sure your iPod is connected and wait until it settles in Windows, i.e. you get all the new hardware balloons and noises.
9. Push the "start" button in the dialog to restart the iPodService.
10. Restart iTunes.
Does iTunes now see your iPod?
Alternatively, if the iPod is plugged in when you boot the computer, does iTunes see the iPod?

I recently upgraded my Itunes softeware, now itunes will not recognize my IPod Classic. If I delete the current IPod software and reinstall it, would this solve the problem, and if so, I'll need step by step instruction.
Yep.

My itunes will not recognize my ipod touch
I'm using a Mac desktop and it/my itunes will not recognize my ipod touch. I have resent my ipod and have also done all the suggested things on the apple website and still it is not being recognized, I do not know what else I can do. My macbook will recognize my ipod touch but I don't want to sync it to that itunes since it is already out of date, I want to sync it to my desktop mac where I already have the latest version of itunes, and all the music I want to sync onto my ipod touch. What can I do?

My itunes will not recognize my ipod shuffle after installing Mcafee
My itunes will not recognize my Ipod shuffle, I have tried almost everything Itunes has suggested including uninstalling and installing Itunes. I am at a loss, the computer recognizes the ipod and assigns a drive to it. When I click on the drive there are flies in it. I have disabled the firewall, checked all firewall settings as suggested in previous forums. I have tried deleting the temp files but that keeps getting hung up on a file that says it is in use. I can stll use my ipod because it charges but I can not update songs etc.
I contacted Mcafee but all they did was turn the firewall off (I could have done that myself).
If there is any help I would appreciate it!
Thanks,
NadineThe first thing I did in the morning was contact McAfee they turned the firewall off it didnt work so they said it wasnt their problem. I attempted several other things using ITunes help but none of the solutions worked. I would say it is something in my computer but the drive shows up in my files so the computer is reading the USB port. I tried changing the drive but that didnt help.
I cannot find a universal "OFF switch" in McAfee But I have turned the firewall off several times after many different attempts.
I do not find an area where I can tell Itunes where the Ipod is in Windows Explorer, that would be helpful at least it could try to locate it then. You would think this feature would be available since Itunes would like us to purchase music through them to load on our equipment. Since my computer does not recognize my Ipod there is no need for me to purchase music.
Do I sound frusturated - I AM But I appreciate your trying to help. -

ITunes will not recognize my Ipod touch.
iTunes will not recognize my Ipod touch. It attempts to perform a recovery, but must restore first. but the restore fails, gives my 1604 code. I have switched cords, USB ports all with no success. I have a second touch (an older generation), a 160 GB Ipod & a shuffle that all work fine. Not sure where to go. One place said that I should reinstall iTunes, but wasn't sure if I would lost my library and apps. Pleas advise. Thanks.
Try to reinstall iTunes as explained in this article:

Backup your iTunes before, just in case. Apps and other bought media from iTunes can be downloaded again for free:

Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do i fix this?
Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do I fix this?
Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

Reinstalled Itunes for Windows will not recognize ipod touch 3rd generation.
Itunes for Windows and PC will not recognize my ipod touch 3rd generation. Also it will not fully charge using a brand new apple brand power adapter and cable. I have already uninstalled all Apple software on PC and reinstalled. I've tried every step suggested by Apple online iPod touch Troubleshooting Assistant.

Itunes 8.0 will not recognize ipod on new computer
Got a new computer and downloaded itunes 8.0 and itunes will not recognize my ipod classic. I was able to transfer old songs from old computer to the new one.
OK, that just changed where future music will be added.
You need to go back to the old PC and get the ITL file. Put it either on the new PC or the exHD. Press *and hold* the shift key while starting itunes and it should "see" all the music on your ex HD.

I've transferred my itunes library from PC to Macbook pro running latest itunes and now it will not recognize my iPods (nano 4 and 5th Gen an Ipod touch). All music is there and playable but will not recognize any devices. Help please
The ipod is not a backup/storage device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer to your new one.
The Apple store will do this for you, you can call apple support and they will help you, you can use google. -
I have a shuffle. When I plug it into Itunes, it tells me that it has not been ejected properly, and it will not recognize the Ipod. I have turned off the computer, and tried this with another shuffle with the exact same results. Any ideas?
Do you remeber the exact (or close to it) wording of the error message?
Try manually placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then try to restore
Next try DFU mode.
