Itunes cannot connect to my ipod touch

I have uninsalled and reistalled itunes, but to no avail.  I have followed all of the links on the support pages too, but nothing seems to owrk.
I keep getting the following message when I log into ITunes "itunes could not connect to this ipod as an unknown error occured (0xE800000A)
Also in "my computer" my ipod shows as a camera???

I tried all of the trouble shooting from the page you linked to lllaass.  What I think the problem is, is that my driver wasn't recognizing the ipod, so now my brother tried to install a new one to fix it, but now my computer only thinks that my ipod is a digital camera.  The real device is in the control panel under hardware but every time I plug in my ipod, it just just defualts to calling it a camera and not the ipod.

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
      1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
      2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
      3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

  • ITunes cannot connect with my iPod or with the store

    My iTunes store will not function with my iPod touch 2nd gen or connect to iTunes store. It says it needs an internet connection.

    I tried all of the trouble shooting from the page you linked to lllaass.  What I think the problem is, is that my driver wasn't recognizing the ipod, so now my brother tried to install a new one to fix it, but now my computer only thinks that my ipod is a digital camera.  The real device is in the control panel under hardware but every time I plug in my ipod, it just just defualts to calling it a camera and not the ipod.

  • ITunes cannot read contents of iPod Touch

    Hi, I have come across the same issue as this post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11125727
    Differences lie in that I hardly have any non-standard apps installed, just 2 at the moment, and probably have (had) more songs.
    I can't recall having done anything particular before it happened. I think it was simply connected to my computer.
    The iPod itself works just fine, including both the apps on it and when trying to access music, it simply says there's "no content".
    Now the question is simply: is there any way for me to get my iPod/iTunes to recognise the "content" (music) again without restoring my iPod?
    If there is no way to do it and I have to restore: will it erase stuff like my notes and calendar (default apps) too?
    Thank you.

    I am also having this problem.
    Please, some information on the subject?

  • "iTunes cannot connect to the iPod "Lee" because itis locked with a passcode. You must enter passcode on the iPod before it can be used with iTunes."   ----HELP--- nothing lets me put a passcode. i have totally uninstalled and ALL THAT!!!!   ANYBODY

    PLEASE HELP

    Try to reset your iPod using the recovery mode as described in this support article
    However, this will erase the iPod completely. If you have an iTunes-backup on your computer you can restore your iPod settings later from the backup.
    I have never tried this in WIndows, however. The procedure might be slightly differeent.

  • My Ipod Touch is disabled and when I connect to Itunes to recover it, it states that itiTunes could not connect to the iPod touch "iPod touch" because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can recover.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
