I deleted something off finder now itunes won't recognize device

i deleted a file off itunes and now itunes won't recognize them what should i do??

Without you telling ua the name of the file you delete there isn't much we can do to help you.
If you don't know the name of the file, your only alternative would be to take it to the Apple Store and ask them to fix,

ITunes won't recognize devices

I have an iPod Nano, which is the first device that I have connected to iTunes, and it works fine with it. Recently, however, I got a new phone with iTunes on it-I start iTunes and plug in the phone (USB), and Windows recognizes it and installs it as a USB Mass Storage Device (E:)...it won't show up in the list in iTunes as it is supposed to.
I just got a iPod Shuffle, and I have the same problem with that. When I plug it in, Windows recognizes it as a USB Mass Storage Device, and installs the drivers and stuff-but doesn't show up on the iTunes list. I have the latest version of iTunes. So in short, iTunes recognizes my first device, but not the other two (phone and Shuffle). Any ideas?

I'm having the exact same problem since I updated iTunes a few days ag, it wont recognise any of my Apple Devices but my PC will recognise them when I plug them it on the device it Trust this Computer comes on the Screen, It won't sync anything, I guess you've updated too. I'm also on Windows 8

My IPhone stopped working right after I did the most current update, yesterday. The screen has a picture of the usb cord, pointing towards the ITunes logo. I cannot use the phone at all. I have tried turning it off and on.ITunes won't recognize device

Hi there,
Can someone please help. My IPhoneS stopped working right after I did the latest update which was yesterday. Now, the phone does not work at all. When turned on, the screen shows a picture of USB cable pointing to the ITunes logo. I have tried just about everything, and cannot get it working. It's like it is frozon. My ITunes does not recognize my device. Cannot dial out either. I desperately need to get it working. Can someone please help me.
Thanking you in advance for your help. :-)

The update did not do anything.
AT&T cannot and will not do anything, they do not provide support for iPhones, Apple does.
The issue is not with the iPhone or iOS if you've reset network settings and tried forgetting the Wi-Fi Network, it is specific to the network.
Check the settings on the router, try disabling the security settings first... that will clarify the issue is not with the device but rather the Network.

Tried restoring iPad to prepare it to sell, encountered error now iTunes won't recognize. The iPad just shows the connect to iTunes even after restarting.

I tried restoring iPad1 to prepare it to sell, encountered error during the restore. iTunes dispalyed a message that there had been an error. My iPad1 is just showing the image to connect to iTunes, even after i try restarting the iPad1. I've also restarted my PC and iTunes will not recognize the iPad1.
iTunes is and will recognize my new iPad3 just fine.
How do I get my iPad1 to come back to life?
Thanks!

No luck. The article says to press and hold the home button, then plug in the usb cable. When i do that, I still just have the connect to itunes image on the iPad, and iTunes is not recognizing the iPad.

ITunes won't recognize new songs on my iPod

I put some new songs on my iPod with another iTunes on another computer. When I opened iTunes and plugged my iPod in the first time after I had added the songs, iTunes recognized the iPod but didn't do anything about the new songs. My iPod also stayed on the "Do not disconnect" screen. I had to press the eject button to safely disconnect it. I thought that when there were songs on the iPod that weren't on iTunes, iTunes would question you about whether or not to add them to iTunes. I have it set to "Manually Manage Music". So,
1. Is it possible to get iTunes to recognize the new songs?
2. If so, how?
thanks

I thought that when there were songs on the iPod that weren't on iTunes, iTunes would question you about whether or not to add them to iTunes.
This applies to music purchased from the iTunes store, when the computer you're using is authorized to play music from that iTunes store account. It does not apply to music obtained in other ways, or if the computer isn't authorized to play that music.

Itunes won't synch when I plug in ipod. I have Win 8. It worked with Win 7

It worked when I had Win 7. The music is in Ituned, but won't go on the Ipod touch. I also have Ipod Nano 4 & same thing. I thot I updated Itunes to work with Win 8, but how do I make sure?
Thank you

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Does iTunes see the iPod?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Ifg iTunes does not see the iPod
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Itunes won't open, music gone after installing ipod/itunes software again

I was using itunes to purchase music and burn it to cds. I recently got a nano and tried to install the software last night. Now Itunes won't open, and I don't even see any of my downloaded music on my computer. It's possible that it's a problem with my computer, but we're also looking into the issues reported with Norton, etc. I should know more by tonight. My question is how do I get my music back if it was somehow deleted by this process? Obviously I've already purchased it, but I don't remember all the songs and I didn't have a backup.

You need to search your hard drive(s) and recycle bin for the music files.
Purchased music will always have a .m4p file extension.
Without a backup, if the files are gone, the music is gone.

ITunes won't take songs OFF of the iPod (iTunes 7, vid)

Hello!
Well, I"m loving the new stuff - mostly. However, I've noticed the "Purchased music transfer" is keeping around 400 MB of music on the iPod, after I've deleted it from the iTunes library.
Why would I delete 400 mb of songs (around 100) that I 'bought'? They were freebies and promotions over several months. I dropped them on an external drive and removed them from iTunes. When I sync either of my iPods (9-month old Vid/2 year old clickwheel), it prompts "There is purchased music on this iPod that is not in your iTunes library. Would you like to transfer?" No, I would not, I say. You see, I have only 900 MB free on my clickwheel, and I'd like to use those extra 400 MB for transfering files between my Macs (via FW Disk Mode).
In any case, I'm essentially looking for a way to restore the default iTunes 6-style iPod Syncing - that is, exactly the same on the iPod that it is on the iTunes library.
Tips?

Itunes won't recognize devices anymore on windows 8

it worked last month but not now. Why?

Version 11.1.5.5 of iTunes was just released today. If you update to that, does that help with the recognition troubles?

Itunes won't recognize my music on my ipod

I can't get my ipod music onto my itunes. I have a new computer-is this the problem

I believe you need to authorize your computer. I got a new computer recently and when I went to sync ipod for first time it stripped all of the music I had purchased. Go into itunes librarey and click on tab that says I believe advanced and it should give you an option to authorize computer. Once you do this plug your ipod back in and your music should be restored. It does take a few minutes to restore music if you have a lot. I hope this helps.
