  • IPod Gen 5, I need to reset it, but iTunes is not recognizing the device?

    I have an iPod touch that the kids disabled, but when I plug it into the cpu in recovery mode windows recognizes it but iTunes doen't?  Please help?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    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.
    Then if necessary:

  • Why is ITunes 11 not recognizing mobile devices?

    I recently performed a normal software update which consisted of the ITunes 11, the current version of ITunes.  Everything appears to be working properly, with the exception of managing mobile devices.  When plugged in, no prompts, windows, displays, or notifications of any kind appear as in previous versions of ITunes for mobile devices such as IPhone or IPad. 
    I went up into the drop down bar, and was able to find a tab labeled, "devices".  When you scroll to the options under devices, everything was grayed out and I was unable to synch, back up, etc anyting plugged in. 
    How am I able to remedy this issue?  Any suggestions encouraged.  Thanks for your time.

  • HT1923 i have installed the updated itunes but it is not recognizing my devices can anyone help

    i have installed updated version of itunes but it is not recognizing my devices can anyone help

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)
