Itunes will not recognize my ipod touch but windows does

I use windows 7 and everything was fine until I updated to the most recent version of Itunes 10. something.  Now when I plug in my Ipod windows recognizes it but I get this message from Itunes: iTunes could not connect to this iPod because an unknown error occurred (0xE800000A) 
Any ideas?

  • My itunes will not recognize my ipod touch

    I'm using a Mac desktop and it/my itunes will not recognize my ipod touch. I have resent my ipod and have also done all the suggested things on the apple website and still it is not being recognized, I do not know what else I can do. My macbook will recognize my ipod touch but I don't want to sync it to that itunes since it is already out of date, I want to sync it to my desktop mac where I already have the latest version of itunes, and all the music I want to sync onto my ipod touch. What can I do?

  • ITunes will not recognize my Ipod touch.

    iTunes will not recognize my Ipod touch.  It attempts to perform a recovery, but must restore first.  but the restore fails, gives my 1604 code.  I have switched cords, USB ports all with no success.  I have a second touch (an older generation), a 160 GB Ipod & a shuffle that all work fine.  Not sure where to go.  One place said that I should reinstall iTunes, but wasn't sure if I would lost my library and apps.  Pleas advise.  Thanks.

    Try to reinstall iTunes as explained in this article:

    Backup your iTunes before, just in case. Apps and other bought media from iTunes can be downloaded again for free:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • My iTunes will not recognize my iPod Touch or iPhone 4, Windows 8 does though.

    Anyone out there having the same issue? iTunes will not recognize it no matter what I do. I have followed all the advice about resetting it and redownloading iTunes, restarting the apple mobile device from the command center. I don't know what else to do but something has to be done. Also, it will not recognixe my phine either but it says that it needs drivers for that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • ITunes will not recognize my iPod Touch 4 so I am not able to restore

    I am trying to restore my iPod Touch 4th Generation so I can get rid of the jailbreak but whenever I plug in my device, the computer recognizes it but not iTunes. I have managed to get it to recognize it a few times which is when I try to restore it, and I'll get to the point where it says "preparing for restore" or something to that effect, but it will stay like that so I cannot restore and get rid of my jailbreak. I know this may sound confusing but I can't think of another way to explain it and I really need help.

    Jailbreaking can have its unintended consequences. It is against the terms of use of the Apple forum to discuss/help with jailbreaking or or jailbroken devices.

    Well, there is always the possibility that it's been jailbroke, in which case, you're out of luck.  However...

  • Itunes does not recognize my iPod Touch using Windows 7 - 64bit

    Itunes does not recognize my iPod Touch using Windows 7 - 64bit. Is this a driver issue? Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix?
    Message was edited by: Mark DiGiacomo

    hi sally,
    see if this user tip by Yorkwill helps:
    +In the end what works is to just force the drivers on what windows thinks is a camera, i.e. to ‘update’ the device to use the correct driver. There are some hints on how to do this already listed on this forum, but I’ll try to give some more detailed information:+
    +1. First off you need to have iTunes installed and the ipod touch plugged in+
    +and recognized as ‘something’ e.g. digital camera (it shouldn’t really+
    +matter what it’s recognized as, but it needs to be found by windows).+
    +2. Search for usbaapl in the C:\WINDOWS system folder:+
    +o open windows explorer (e.g. Right-click Start and then click ‘explore’)+
    +o right-click the WINDOWS folder and select ‘Search’).+
    +o type in usbaapl and hit Search – try to ignore the dog!+
    +You should find the driver info in a sub folder of+
    +C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B+
    +Remember that location (either leave the search box open or copy the folder+
    +name into note pad – you’ll need it later)+
    +If you don’t find usbaapl.sys, usbaapl.inf etc. then your drivers have not+
    +been installed with the iTunes install and you’ll have to reinstall iTunes.+
    +3. Locate the ipod-camera device:+
    +o Open the device manager, e.g. using Start > Control Panel >+
    +Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager+
    +o Look for a device called ‘ipod’ - if your ipod shows up as+
    +‘digital camera’ it will be under something like ‘imaging devices’.+
    +4. Update the driver:+
    +o Right click the ‘ipod-camera’ in device manager and click on+
    +‘Update Driver’ – the Hardware Update Wizard will open.+
    +o Check the ‘Install from a list or specific location’ then click ‘Next’+
    +o Check ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’. Un-check+
    +‘Search removable media’ and check ‘Include this location in the search’.+
    +In the text box below type (or better copy and paste) the folder+
    +containing the ipod driver information found in step 1 (in the example+
    +above it was C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B), +
    +then click Next.+
    +You should now see something like ‘Apple ipod device driver’ or so. Continue+
    +installing that device. Once the driver has been installed the ipod will come+
    +to life and iTunes (if you have it open) will show it.+

  • My itunes will not recognize my ipod shuffle after installing Mcafee

    My itunes will not recognize my Ipod shuffle, I have tried almost everything Itunes has suggested including uninstalling and installing Itunes.  I am at a loss, the computer recognizes the ipod and assigns a drive to it.  When I click on the drive there are flies in it.  I have disabled the firewall, checked all firewall settings as suggested in previous forums.  I have tried deleting the temp files but that keeps getting hung up on a file that says it is in use.  I can stll use my ipod because it charges but I can not update songs etc.
    I contacted Mcafee but all they did was turn the firewall off (I could have done that myself).
    If there is any help I would appreciate it!
    Thanks,
    Nadine

    The first thing I did in the morning was contact McAfee they turned the firewall off it didnt work so they said it wasnt their problem.  I attempted several other things using ITunes help but none of the solutions worked.  I would say it is something in my computer but the drive shows up in my files so the computer is reading the USB port.  I tried changing the drive but that didnt help.
    I cannot find a universal "OFF switch" in McAfee But I have turned the firewall off several times after many different attempts.
    I do not find an area where I can tell Itunes where the Ipod is in Windows Explorer, that would be helpful at least it could try to locate it then. You would think this feature would be available since Itunes would like us to purchase music through them to load on our equipment.  Since my computer does not recognize my Ipod there is no need for me to purchase music.
    Do I sound frusturated - I AM But I appreciate your trying to help.

  • Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do i fix this?

    Itunes will not recognize my ipod. How do I fix this?

    Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.
