Itunes keeps saying my Ipod is corrupt.
I've had the 160GB ipod classic for 2 months and then all of a sudden itunes says it is corrupt. I tried reinstalling itunes and restoring the ipod. I even went out and got a new one and the samething keeps coming up when I connect my ipod. Itunes recongizes everything about the Ipod except the capacity says: N/A.
Do you still need help?

Hi. How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?" Wth...i am using the 64 bit version of itunes. Why does it keep saying that? Will someone Help me please!? This is is getting frustrating. I already had done a full removal of everything! I even removed and deleted my library...then had to put all 500 songs back on one by one. So, i don't have to remove everything again, just to get my ipod to work on here. You, know before the itunes update, my ipod and itunes were working just fine.
wow, that was a quick reply. lol. but i have removed everything. I wasn't even able to get iTunes on my computer for a little while. i kept getting errors on that. Now it's saying that the required software isn't installed. Hmm, could it be referring to Apple Mobile Device Support? That is supposed to be installed with when iTunes gets installed right? I only ask, because that didn't get installed with the itunes setup.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT. THANKS!
If you can see your iPod in Device Manager or My Computer, right click on it, select disk management, and reformat it (FAT32 format, not a quick format). While you are there you might want to change the drive letter on the iPod to something higher, such as M or P, in case it is conflicting with another device.
After this, Restore the iPod in iTunes.
Before trying any of this, first try to Reset your iPod (slide the hold switch on and off, then hold down the menu and center buttons for 6 seconds). -
Itunes is saying my Ipod is corrupt when I plug it in. It says I should restore it but every time I try to it doesn't allow me to. I unplugged it to look at my song, and there is none, no music, videos or pictures. What do I do?
Hi gawc'n (and greg so cal),
Try this (in the first step, disconnect your iPod before proceeding):
1. Force your iPod into disk mode, following the instructions found in this article.
2. With your iPod in disk mode, now connect it to your computer.
3. If iTunes still shows the "Corrupt" error message, then let's proceed onto running a disk error check on your iPod. For information on "chkdsk" (what it is typically called here), see this MS document:
How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
4. After that is complete, it would be best to restore your iPod in iTunes again.

ITunes keeps saying that my 60GB iPod with Video is corrupted when it's not
I have an 60GB iPod with Video that iTunes keeps saying is corrupted when I connect it to my MacBook Pro. Although it seems to only happen after using it for more than a short amount of time before syncing it. I just watched a 5 minute video after I ejected my iPod and when I synced it after that, iTunes did not say it was corrupted. Although when I used it for over 3 hours earlier today and synced it, iTunes said it was corrupted. When iTunes says it is corrupted, I eject the iPod and resync it, and it's always fine the second time. This issue has been ongoing for a month or two now and it's starting to get annoying. I bought the iPod last June.
it can be some corrupted files or bad sectors on the HD of your iPod, see doing the following helps
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore” -

Itunes says my ipod is corrupt. it's not my intunes is. How do I fix it?
My ipod nano was corrupt and I restored it and even took it to the apple store to see cause it still was not working. It worked fine there and they even put sample music on it. I came home and tried putting all my music from itunes on it and it still says my ipod is corrupt I think its my computer and/or itunes. My itunes is even coming up with like a pink/purple background and it doesn't look right.
I reinstalled itunes and everything already and still nothing.

I can't get my new 7th gen nano to sync to my exsisting itunes. It keeps saying the ipod is not detected.
If youre like me, I have so many Apple devices, I always move things over manually rather than remember what to sync and what not to sync........ There’s an option to UNCHECK sync on any device if that helps you in ITUNES.
On any device, like your phone, in ITUNES you can check the option for manual vs. automatically sync. -
iTunes keeps saying its the latest version. Ive downloaded a 4.3.5.ipsw but when I try and restore from this iTunes says the firmware isn't compatible...any idea's what to do next?
The iPod 3g will only support iOS up to 4.2.1 and nothing beyond that.

In the middle of an update, it call closed. Itunes keeps saying that it's not installed, even though ive tried reinstalling multiple times. All my iphone is doing it showing the ituns symbol and a charger. How can I fix this???
Hi lepyykko,
If I understand your question, you are trying to update your iPhone, but you are seeing an error message that iTunes for Windows is not installed, is that right? The first step is to get iTunes successfully installed on your computer. Then backup the iPhone before updating the iOS software.
Are you seeing any error messages when you try to install iTunes for Windows?

Task & Appointment Manager recommendations?
Some four weeks or so since buying my iPad 3G, I'd say that one of the most delightful things about it is the sheer ease of installing new 'apps'. But inevitably there's a lot of poor stuff to wade through in the App Store to find those of quality. I
