Itunes not allowing restore or update. Please Help!!!!!!!

I have a 80gb video ipod that is not restoring or updating on my mac book(black). The ipod, when plugged into my friend's computer, is showing up as a video ipod with the correct software version. When I plug the ipod into my computer iTunes says that the ipod software is too old to update and doesnt display itself as a video ipod. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall itunes but that does not fix the problem. I have all updates installed. Please help!!!!!

When I plug the ipod into my computer iTunes says that the ipod software is too old to update and doesnt display itself as a video ipod.
hmmmm. that might be associated with a skunky ipoddriver.kext file. perhaps the following documents might be of some assistance:
iTunes 7 for Mac: Restore option is not available
iTunes: No Photos or Videos tab in the iPod preferences pane in Mac OS X
iPod does not appear in iPod Updater or iTunes in Mac OS X

  • Can't update/install itunes- 'not a valid win32 application' PLEASE HELP

    Hi Guys,
    I'm having some serious problems with installing iTunes on my laptop. I have searched and searched the internet and can not find any solution to my problem. I am receiving the error "itunes is not a valid win32 application' after the program finishes downloading. Sometimes however it will just stop in the middle of the download. I use a SONY VAIO VGN-NW25GF which was only purchased last year. It uses windows 7. I had trouble downloading itunes to begin with though eventually it worked, however since the new 10.1 update has been available ive been attempting to update it almost every time i use itunes. Each and every time it fails and i've had enough as i need to update my iphone software. I’ve since uninstalled both itunes and quicktime hoping it will reinstall properly. But nothing, the same problem is occurring and now i have no itunes program!
    I've tried all the solutions online about deleting browing history/temp folder and any itunessetup.exe/quicktimesetup.exe files and nothing works. I've also tried downloading using a different browser and still nothing. I’ve done a virus scan, disk cleanup and disk defragment and NOTHIGN is working. I'm starting to get quite frustrated as i need this program for my iphone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks 

  • When I try to activate my iMessage with the new iOS 7, it will not accept my original Apple ID. Also, when I try to use snapchat, it keeps popping up "login to iTunes to allow push notifications." please help!" I'm really frustrated

    Please help!!!

    I got this under XP before. I was totally baffled until I realized there was a network drive mapped to the same place XP was trying to mount my iPod. The common symptom is that you'll get this sort of "corrupt" error on one machine but it works ok on a friend's machine. If that's true for you, you can change the network drive mapping to another drive letter (easiest) or mount your iPod and change its drive letter in the disk management control panel (under admin tools).
    Hope that helps... this one just about had me pulling my hair out until I recognized the problem.

    I have the same problem when I updated to OS X 10.10 I lost both my USB ports as far as they will not recognize anything that I plug into them.  The power part of the USB seams to work since it will recharge my Striiv Touch but nothing shows up when you connect anything to the ports.
    I have tried a number of things from rebooting, trying other usb devices that work on other systems with no problems but will not work on my Macbook Pro.
    Any Help out there?

  • ITunes not reconizing removal of songs,please help!

    Every time I sync my iPod up to iTunes, and remove a song,video,playlist,etc...it doesn't seem to give back the space on the iPod that the file had taken up. Not according to the counter on the bottom of the iTunes screen at least.
    The odd thing is,if I add a file to my iPod,it reconizes that perfectly fine. So its takeing space,but not given it back,what gives?
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Thanks!

    Go to My computer and right click your IPOD (if you have it in disk mode), go to properties and see the used and remaining space. Now go in and delete a song or 2 on your IPOD and then go back into my computer and check to see if there has been a change. Trying to determine if ITUnes is for some reason not reporting correctl changes versus windows?

  • I have updated to iTunes 10 and now my unchecked songs are playing... I don't want this and can't figure out how to have it like it was before (not playing unchecked songs). Please help!

    I have updated to iTunes 10 and now my unchecked songs are playing... I don't want this and can't figure out how to have it like it was before (not playing unchecked songs). Please help! I leave the unchecked songs in there b/c there will come a point in time where I want to listen to these songs but right now I don't.

    yes, 10.3.1, iTunes already restarted, menu settings already like that and still it will play all unchecked songs (including the checked songs of course). Why even have check and unchecked if the program is going to play all of them anyway?!
    thanks for responding though...

  • My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. Please help.

    My iPad 2 will not allow me to update my apps. When I hit the update button I get a spinning circle but then it times out and doesn't update. In the past when I have updated successfully, the spinning circle would show me an indicator of time left on the update. I no longer have this Indicator. The circle just spins and times out and nothing happens. I've reset the iPad in the settings menu, reset the router, logged in and out of Apple id, powered ithe iPad off and on, and tried a couple other "fixes" that I've read online. So far no luck. AAny help would be greatly appreciated. Much thanks!

  • While updating my iphone software it got intruppted and now showing connect to itune not getting restored

    while updating my iphone software it got intruppted and now showing connect to itune not getting restored please help

    Try doing a hard reset on the phone;
    1. Hold Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time;
    2. Wait for the Apple logo to appear (ignore the slide to Power Off option)
    3. Let go of the buttons when you see Apple on the screen
    4. Allow iPhone to reboot;
    If you are still unable to get the phone to power on, charge, or connect to iTunes; it could possibly require service. (hardware replacement)
