Computer doesn't recognize my Nano but does recognize my daughters.
I've been using the computer/Nano for over a year now. All of a sudden, the computer isn't recognizing my Nano. When I connect it, no drive is assigned although a new Mass USB Storage Device does appear in Device Manager.
I tried connecting my daughter's Nano to my computer and it is recognized. I reied connecting my Nano to my daughter's computer and it is recognized. It's just my Nano on my computer.
Any suggestions?Start with these articles and see if that gets you anywhere...

Also you might try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

Computer doesn't recognize ipod nano
This started with a corrupted update attempt that many here have experienced. After going through the "5 r's, I ended up reformatting the data partition. It "worked", but the post-format behaviour was a little buggy. So I reformatted the data partition again. Now NOTHING on my computer recognizes the ipod. not itunes, not windows (so there's no way to reformat it- the reformatting tool doesn't see it)- the HP formatting utility doesn't see it either.
When it has juice, it just continuoisly flashes the white ipod icon on and off till the batteries run drytill it goes into hibernate mode. Its responsive to none of the buttons or the hold switch.
Any ideas?The solution was that I had to force ipod into disk mode by holding down the buttons ect- wasn't aware that was possible, but once I did it, I reformatted again. We'll see what happens...
BTW this WHOLE problem was CAUSED by the ipod updater utility.
Further, if windows doesn't see it as a disk after the ipod updater corrupts your ipod, neither will the ipod updater when you restart it. But I have to say the "force into disk mode" feature really saved my *** ion this one. Its on-off on the hold slider, followed by 6+ seconds of Menu & Select at the same time, then 6+ seconds of Select & Play at the same time(for those who don't know). -

My Windows 8.1 computer doesn't recognize my iPod nano 7th generation. Why?
My Windows 8.1 computer doesn't recognize my iPod nano 7th generation. Why?
When I connect my iPod to my computer, nothing happens. I've read the tips in the section "support" and I noticed that maybe Windows 8 is not one of the operating systems that are compatible with an iPod nano 7th generation. If I'm right, what can I do if my only device is a Windows 8?Hi, Grafiti.
Thank you for the question. Below, I have attached a couple troubleshooting articles that will help resolve the device not being recognized by iTunes.

I have an 11" MacBook Air. When I plug in my VGA adapter to my Thunderbolt port, the computer doesn't recognize it ... unless I reboot the computer. Is there another way to get the computer to recognize the adapter? (It works with my MacBook Pro)
Thanks for the useful feedback, Knucklesmac. I agree. I must have blown something on the logic board -- because I had a faulty old KVM switch that would not switch between computers without some nasty hot-plugging/unplugging the VGA video cables. (wince!). It's like when Dizzy Dean ruined his arm because a line drive hit him in the foot and he readjusted his mechanics around the injury. I take the blame because this has been a great computer, and does not deserve any blame.
If it will help anyone else reading this thread, C2G (née Cables to Go) has some interesting ideas for still getting external video out of this computer:
-USB-to-VGA
http://www.cablestogo.com/product/30545
-Convert s-video or composite video signals to high resolution VGA
http://www.cablestogo.com/product/40971
The price range is $75-$85, which doesn't make horse sense to me for such an old computer -- which has a lot of life in it anyway, because its own 15" monitor is not chopped liver.

My computer doesn't recognize my Zen Creative Vision:M (30 GB) anymore
? I still use XP and I have this mp3-player for a year now and it has been working fine until yesterday. I ripped Stefani's first album and tried to drag one of her songs on my mp3-player, but the player couldn't handle the file it seemed. So it fell out, on, out, on and I just unplugged it. Then I plugged it back in, but ever since my computer doesn't recognize it (in the media explorer it also says it's not plugged in). The videos in my library also seemed to be missing all of the sudden (only the maps remained).. and?I re-installed every programm, including windows media player, and the only outcome of it is that my computer now labels it as a MTP Media Player. So now it does connect, but i still can't transfer files or get into the player's system.
It's strange, because many people have encountered this problem and the solutions seem to vary; one even solved it by simply re-installing WMP, which didn't work for me.
Help would be awesome, guys!From the recovery screen do a Clean-up,reboot. If you have copies of all your music you may need to Format the player (do not choose reload firmware or anything like that)? http://forums.creative.com/creativel...scending&page=
