  • Ipod wont show through MyComputer or Itunes

    Hi all,
    My Ipod wont show on my work computer but displays on every other PC!
    It comes up with the 'Safely Remove Hardware' Icon but doesn't display anywhere else in windows. I have restarted the Ipod Service but when Itunes opens, it says the Ipod needs to be restored, but not on any other PC, it works perfectly.
    Any ideas? I am running the latest versions of Itunes and the Ipod software is up to date!
    Regards,
    Simon Anderson

    just the itune problem and also itune 7.0 is not that great

  • My ipod wont show up in itunes or on my desktop,

I have also changed cables, ports and plugged it into a different computer and the same thing occured. The ipod is not new, and it used to work, now i just want to re-sync it.

  • IPod wont show songs under artists

    Referring to this website: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302773
    i have a question:
    I am experiencing the same problem as described on that page. Only thing is, it is much more severe for me. I'm guessing that over 100 of my 900 songs wont show under artists.
    Yet, most of my songs do not have an album name.
    First question, why do only a part of those songs that don't have an album name not show under artists on my iPod?
    Secondly, is there no easier way to get this problem fixed than giving the songs an album name? Firstly, it's impossible for me to know what songs do show and which are not shown under artists on my iPod, i only know a few. It's not like im going to go through all 900 songs to find this out. Secondly, i do not know the correct album name for each song. If i fix an album name, i want it to be correct and not made up in my head. Thirdly, it takes ages and ages to name albums for all songs that do not have album names.
    So is there any easier way?

    "First question, why do only a part of those songs that don't have an album name not show under artists on my iPod?"
    It's a bug as far as I know, possibly in the future some update or change to iTunes and/or the iPod software will rectify it.
    "Secondly, is there no easier way to get this problem fixed than giving the songs an album name"
    At the moment, no there's not.
    "it takes ages and ages to name albums for all songs that do not have album names"
    Actually you can do it quite quickly. Sort your library by Album to bring all the blanks together. Click on the first song in the list and holding down the Shift key click on the last. This will highlight all in between . Right click on the list and chose Get Info, say yes when you are asked if you want to update multiple items. Put None or Unknown or any title of your choice in the album field and click OK. This should sort the problem out for you.
    There's also one other thing that that contributes to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod and that is if the song is marked as part of a compilation.
    If the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.

  • IPod Wont show all my artists

    My iPod wont hsow all my artist when I look in the artists directory. But when I go to albums, it will have the artist album and the songs.. I like using it by artist, rather than album.. For example, Ladytron doesn't show up when i go to the artist list, but if i go to albums, it will show thier album "604" and all the tracks there. How can I fix it ?

    Hi Saurabh,
    I had the exact same problem, but just found this earlier post that solves all our problems! (phew):
    Sounds like you have "Compilations" switched on.
    In Itunes look at "get info" for the missing artists and see if the part of a compilation box is checked.
    On you iPod go to settings>compilations and toggle it to off
    To get the artists to show up on the Ipod you only need to do step 2.
    When you have the compiliations features switched on (in either iTunes or iPod) artists that only have albums that are compilations will not show up in the artist list.
    Hope this helps!
    Tam.

  • Ipod Wont show up

    Hey I was at my cousins house and he set my ipod to manually manage music photos etc. Now I'm home and i plugged my ipod into my computer and the icon wont show up on itunes. I know its in because it has the charging icon. What should I do?

  • Ipod wont show capacity

    i had restore mi ipod but it wont show capacity of ipod in itunes summary. help please

    when you restore your ipod it returns to factory setting, so that will probably be software 1.1.1. Try installing the next software version and it will be displayed.

  • IPod wont show up at all.

    The iPod seems to charge (sometimes), but wont show up on the computer. The iPod wont even show the "don't disconnect" icon on the screen. I've tried different computers (Mac and Win) and have reset the iPod, but to no avail. The only other thing I can think it could be is the port going bad, but I'm just wondering if anyone knows of anything else?
    Thanks
    Dave

  • Ipod wont show up on "my computer" OR itunes!!!???

    the ipod doesnt actually work correctly i just asked a question about it and i was going to try to completely restore the ipod but it doesnt show up on itunes or on "my computer". here is my question i recently asked if it helps..
    i got a 30 gb ipod video from someone because they cant get it to work so i bought a charger and plugged it into the computer. it said very low battery please wait right at first and had a little circle thing that showed it was loading. now it will only show an apple sign on the screen no matter what i had it plugged in over night i tried reseting it but it just went right back to showing the apple sign is there anything else i can do or why is it doing this?

    I recently purchased a new 120 GB ipod classic to replace my original 30 GB ipod video. My computer failed to recognize my new hardware and I receive the following error message when running diagnostics in an attempt to locate the "new" 120 GB ipod.
    No external plug-ins installed.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod wont show songs after updating.

    Hi there, I have a Ipod 30gig Video. I have just done the 1.2.2 update on it. I am running windows 2000. The only way I can get my songs back and lists, is to plug it into my mac laptop, then Eject it. It seems as Itunes does not support windows 2000 no longer (no further downloads for win 2000)I cannot view my songs after ejecting it. I am not very happy and would not have updated the Ipod firmware if I knew this was going to happen.
    Can I reverse my firmware with an older one somehow? What shall I do?

    I am having the same problem!!!! have you resolved this issue yet? I see noone has replied with an answer its really frustrating. I have a friend at work who plugs it into this ipod thing he has sorry i don't know the name of it. He plugged it in to try to back up my music but didn't have enough space so when he disconnected it i was able to listen to my music again! when i plugged it back into my computer at home and at work all the songs disappeared again when I disconnected it!! I don't get it!! He suggest's I delete all my songs after I back it up of course and start from scratch! I don't want to do that 'cause it will take forever to get all my stuff back on. There has to be a better way! and APPLE should have warnings before they just throw out updates!!!
