  • I have an imac running 10.5.8 (Itunes 10.6.3) and I find that it will not recognise my IPad 2. I therefore cannot download music. Can anyone advise as to how I can overcome this problem?

    You need to either upgrade your computer to Mac OS X 10.6 or download the content directly from Apple's servers instead of your computer; for content not purchased from iTunes, the second option requires signing up for iTunes Match.

  • Solution .Itunes does not recognise your your burner

    If itunes does not recognise your burner, look in (my computer) if you have more drive than you actually have.if this is the case, you have a logical drive. You must go in your control panel and disable it. When you will try to burn .Itunes is gonna see your burner and ask you if you want to use it .

    I also have a similar problem.
    I have an 80g. Library was in fine working order.
    Now, I had my computer wiped out, with a new itunes library.
    I want to transfer my ipod music to my itunes library, but all of the programs to help me do this will not recognize my ipod, even on disk use and manual settings.
    What do I do without clearing my ipod music?

    I'm not sure if it charged when I hooked it up to my roommate's computer, but it definately didn't register either. If I put it on the dock it plays so the port is fine, but that still doesn't help me sync it to my computer.

  • My itunes account is not recognising my ipad when I connect it to my computer. I have followed the Apple troubleshooter for this but with no success.

    My iTunes account is not recognising that I have plugged in my iPad to the computer. Other devices, such as my iPhone, are being recognised, but not the iPad. I have tried the Apple troubleshooter for this problem but it didn't help. ie I've restarted itunes, restarted iPad, reinstalled iTunes, etc. Any ideas?

  • Details not recognised by ipad

    I have an iPad 4 and iPod Touch 5.   I had Sky  Go installed and fully operational on both units.  Now when trying to watch, say sport, on the iPad all I get is a continuous straming/buffering/searching circle in the middle of the screen.  Never connects. The iPod Touch works fine. I've deleted and re-installed the app of the iPad but now it won't accept my Sky ID and/or password. !?! Via the ipod settings/manage devices I removed the ipad (listed as tablet whereas ipod is list as ios).  Now I have only 1 device registered and can't seem to get 2nd device rgistered (again) Can any one provide explanation/solution to my problem.  

    For this part of the problem:
    I've deleted and re-installed the app of the iPad but now it won't accept my Sky ID and/or password. !?!
    Via the ipod settings/manage devices I removed the ipad (listed as tablet whereas ipod is list as ios).  Now I have only 1 device registered and can't seem to get 2nd device rgistered (again)
    Can any one provide explanation/solution to my problem.
    The last thing you should do is delete the registration for the device no matter what problems you are having as this could mean you would have to wait until the start of the next month if you have previously registered a device this month so this might be why you are unable to register it again.
    Regarding the buffering problem, when removing the app did you reboot your iPad frst before installing it again ?

  • New laptop not recognising ipod

    I recently bought a new laptop. I have installed itunes on this machine. when i open itunes and log into may account and connect my ipod itunes does not seem to recognise my ipod. What do I do.
    Also I bought my children an ipod shuffle each for christmas. How do I register thieer ipods so that they can put songs on their ipods from my itunes account?
    Thanks

    I'm in the same boat, my iPod Touch worked fine before this lousy update. None of Apple's online solutions work and I haven't been able to use it since Monday. It ***** that I will have to send it off to Apple to be replaced (apparently they send you a new or refurbished replacement rather than fixing your one). I feel like I should be compensated for Apple ruining my iPod Touch.

  • I am trying to connect my iPad to my windows pc ( xp) but it does not recognise the iPad and I get a blue screen error causing the pc to shut down. Any ideas

    I am still not able to connect my iPad 2 to my Pc ( windows xp). When I try to do so I get a blue screen error and the computer shuts down. I have reinstalled iTunes. iPod works fine. Any ideas?

    Not sure, but try these.
    Disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. 
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the Sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut Off. To power up hold the Sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time (for about 10-15 seconds) until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider), then let go of the buttons.

  • Windows 8 laptop not recognising iPod Touch

    Hi,
    I have an old 2nd gen ipod touch and a 5th gen, I bought a new laptop a few months ago and neither iPod works with it. When I connect via USB it is recognised on my computer as an external storage device, but it doesn't register with iTunes at all.
    I have de-authorised my old laptop, I've tried uninstalling iTunes, I've done all the updates necessary... I'm stuck as to what else I can do. I have the same problem with my iPad... can anyone advise?
    Many thanks

    Did you remove and reinstall all the Apple software by:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
