  • Itunes wont recognize my 4th gen ipod touch but computer will

    iTunes refuses to recognize my 4th gen. iPod touch. Both are up to date with software and ive restarted my computer, ipod, and itunes multiple times and done everything ive found online. the computer recognizes it and says its working properly, but itunes does not put it anywhere in the devices. nor can i find it.

    You need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView to copy photos from photos synced to the iPod to a computer.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • For the iOS5 (iTouch 4th Gen), was there supposed to be an iTunes and Documents app (directly on the iTouch) for the iCloud feature? Because I don't have it and I already tried restoring my iTouch again...

    so now I have to close an account I've held for 5 years and lose all my content...... am I right?
    No.
    I suggest you contact iTunes support.

    and was declined because I didn't have enough funds. This is fine. This happens all the time. Its cash.
    I wouldn't say "this is fine" and it is not cash.
    In many places, attempting to use a debit card with no funds (even if you don't know there are no funds) is fraud and is illegal.

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • ITouch 4th gen problem

    iTouch 4th gen freezes at boot up and will not reset no matter how long I hold down the power and home buttons. Mac will not recognize it when plugged in.

    See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow Itunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod,  After that, I thing an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Can the Itouch 4th Gen create a playlist from the device?

    Trtying to find out if the Itouch 4th gen can create  a playlist from the actual device rather than having to connect to itunes all the time.

    Yes. See chaper 5 of the Users Guide

    Please respond i'm desperate

    Have you tried connecting to iTunes to be restored?  You may need to manually place the iPod into Disk Mode first so that it is recognized by both your Windows OS and iTunes.

  • I lost my itouch (4th gen.) on Thursday at 6pm, and I would like as much feedback on ways to track it. How do I retrieve the serial number?

    I lost my itouch (4th gen.) on Thursday at 6pm, and I would like as much feedback on ways to track it. How do I retrieve the serial number by launching itunes?

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order

  • 9006 Error when downloading iOS 5 on iTouch 4th Gen

         Yeah I have been trying to download iOS 5 for my iTouch 4th Gen because "it's able to now" but today I tried it for the fifth time and it got around 550mb out of the 770mb download and it said i got the 9006 Error.

  • Please Help - My iTunes library won't recognize my iPod classic

    My iTunes library won't recognize my iPod classic 80gb. I try doing the trouble shooting steps on apple, but they still did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd love to add some newer music to my old iPod for listening in the car or when travelling. Thanks a lot.

    Hello dmbnewfie,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that your iPod classic is not being recognized in iTunes when you connect it to your computer. I know you have tried some troubleshooting on the Apple website as well, but without knowing which steps you have completed, I would suggest working through the attached iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant.

    Have a great day,

  • ITunes still won't recognize my iPhone after I've followed every step

    I purchased an iPhone4 off of a friend, he had completely restored it back to its factory settings before he sold it to me.
    When I connected it to my iTunes it had asked to update it, so I did to 6.1.3. Now Every time I plug it into my computer it asks me to restore it, I click restore and it says it's updating, takes 4 hours then says there was an error. I've googled this and gone through all the steps and nothing is working. My iTunes still won't recognize my iPhone.
    I had tried it on my brothers iTunes and it says "pairing record missing"
    I also looked that up, followed all the different steps and nothing helped.
    I've tried updating my iTunes, every time I try it crashes and says it "failed to install". nothing at all is working and I'm getting very frustrated and losing my faith in apple...
    If anyone has any other idea, or advice, PLEASE let me know. it would be greatly appreciate.
    Thank you
    btw: I've tried the unplugging, rebooting, bluetoothing, everything I saw in the other forums and nothing helped.

    why would your be frustrated and losing your faith with Apple?  Sounds like your friend sold you a jailbroken phone.
