ITunes latest version crashes my 5G iPod

I've used this stuff since you first came out with the iPod. Then iTunes. It's been really great until now. I know about the 5R's and have tried them (repeatedly).
Problem: I open iTunes, connect my iPod, iTunes says it's updating the iPod. The UI freezes (not even refreshing) then it crashes. I purchased music from the iTunes store and I cannot even use it! That really is not fair. But, HOPE that you can repro this issue and resolve it. I'm used to having m$ stuff crash but not apple stuff. If you would like me to send you a crash dump I would be more than happy to help.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Borden

Actually i think i wrote the wrong subject. It's itunes that crashes.
I'm using the 60gb. It's actually been fine. It's iTunes latest version that isn't working properly.

  • ITunes (latest version) crashes...iPod won't eject

    When I connect my iPod Classic 160GB, iTunes launches but crashes immediately. I force-quit it because it won't run anyway, but then Finder won't let me eject my iPod (the iPod icon is grayed out on my desktop). In short, iTunes is unusable. Another thread cited an issue with iBooks and recommended uninstalling it by "changing the rights" (I have no idea what that means) and deleting it to fix the iTunes problem. OSX won't let me delete iBooks because "it is required by OSX). Any help would be appreciated.

    Ahh, it seems that resetting the ipod fixed the problem. Carry on.

  • After a download of an update too long, my iPhone is stuck, I can not use it. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes.

    After a download of an update too long, I decided to cancel it and now my iPhone is stuck. I can not use it anymore.My Iphone can start but after that the apple disappears, I have a black background. I tried to restore it but iTunes (latest version) crashes. Whan can I do ??
    Thanks.

    You mean you tried to hack/jailbreak it. ONLY the carrier a phone is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    You've voided your warranty and forfeited your right to support here and from Apple.  Congratulations. You now own an iBrick. Hope it was worth it.

    Trying to download ITunes latest version on my Windows XP and I get this message:  "The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files\ITunes.  The installation cannot continue.  Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator."  HELP?

    Hello PamelaFox14,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you need to log in as the administrator to update the iTunes application properly.
    Take a look at this article named:
    Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1926
    This section in particular:
    1. Make sure you have administrator account access
    To install iTunes or QuickTime software, you need to be logged in as an administrator on the computer. If you're not sure if you have administrator account access, you may find this Microsoft article helpful:
    Windows 7: How do I log on as an administrator?
    Otherwise, refer to the Help documentation from Microsoft, contact your IT department, or visitsupport.microsoft.com for more information.
    All the best,

    It sounds like you may have a 2nd generation iPod Touch. If so, 4.2.1 is the highest iOS. Please note there was never a 2nd Generation 8gB version of the iPod Touch.

  • Ipod 160GB showing in Windows Vista OS as Removable Disk, not appearing in iTunes (latest version). How can I resolve?, Ipod 160GB showing in Windows Vista OS as Removable Disk, not appearing in iTunes (latest version). How can I resolve?

    My Ipod 160GB when disconnected is showing without any files, but no room available. It appears in my 'Computer' screen as 'Removable Disk (though the icon is a little iPod). It does not show up in iTunes at all (I have the latest version).
    When I right-click the icon on the 'Computer' screen it does run incredibly slowly. I was doing this to consider if I should try formatting it (only NTSF and exFAT formats were showing) but I wasn't certain if that would be a good idea.
    I have thus far:
    Hard Reset iPod
    Verified the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver was installed correctly via Device Manager
    Checked the device in 'Computer Management' > 'Disk Management - showing as a RAW file with only format option as exFAT or NTSF
    Ran iPod in Diagnostic Boot Mode - IO > HardDrive > HDSMARTData* - stats revealed 'Error' (did this twice to confirm error). Reset iPod from here.
    After this it actually came up in iTunes but said it needed to be restored - ran Restore iPod. Error message said 'iPod cannot be restored. Uknown error occoured (1415).
    Tried Solution 1 (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539) - Reregistering the .dll files. Was unable to complete step 11 as the iPod did not appear in iTunes.
    Verified that Apple Mobile Device Manager was installed.
    Restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service.
    Checked for third party conflicts - couldn't find any.
    Changed the drive letter and restarted the computer.
    Put into disk mode - unsure what that achieves.
    Downloaded the HP USB with no luck running the program. I believe that Windows Vista doesn't allow formatting drives to FAT32 at all, and even previous editions of Windows wouldn't allow formatting above 32GB so certainly no suitable for me. If I got hold of a mac computer - could I format on that? Or is there a FAT32 Formatter that works for 160GB?
    So I am at a bit of a frustrated loss. If you have any suggestions or know what I should do - I am all ears or eyes as it were. I will be on standby to give you more information if required.
    Thanks,
    Ashley

    Try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the computer.
    Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
    This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.
    Also see these (if you haven't found them already):
    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    iPod does not appear in iTunes or on the desktop
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but does not appear in iTunes

  • Synching iPod Touch with iTunes latest versions messes up e-mail progams on the Touch; help

    Twice now in the past week I have synched my 64GB latest model  iPod Touch with the latest version of iTunes and it has completely messed up my e-mail programs on the Touch; I cannot get or send e-mails.    I have to delete the e-mail accounts and then add them back in so that I can receive and send e-mails.  What has caused this and how can I eliminate this from happening in the future when I sync?  Thank you for your help.
    carol

    Yes, I find it strange, too but it has happened both times I have synched the Touch in the past week.  iTunes was updated right before the first time this happened.     I have Verizon for my e-mail and it would not work on the Touch  but I was able to send and receive emails on my desk top.   It is frustrating to say the least to spend time deleting and then adding the e-mail accounts to the Touch.
