My computer was rebuilt and now my ipod touch won't recognize it as an authorised devise what do I do
I would like to know how to authorize my computer now that it has been rebuilt? My "old computer" no longer exists, as this technicly is my "old computer" just new insides. I need to be able to manage my devises that are linked to my i touch, so that I can sinc it. It's been almost a full year since it's been sinced, and I don't want to lose my stuff!
I am not clear as to your problem. Maybe:
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
or maybe:
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
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

I upgraded my os of itunes and now my ipod touch won't work
I upgraded the itunes to the newest os 5.0 and now my ipod touch won't register or even turn on, I get the initial screen that shows you to plug it in to the computer and then nothing happens
i have the same problem. I tried to upgrade this morning to iOS 5.0.1 and now my ipod touch is completely frozen. All I get is a black screen with the Apple logo and an empty download bar. I'm not even able to turn off the ipod and iTunes doesn't detect it anymore. Any suggestion except returning the ipod to Apple Store?

- Have you tried a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- NextI would restore from backup. -

I uploded the new itunes software and now my ipod touch is not getting reconized in my itunes. I went through all the trouble shooting support from apple. But I do have a avast antivirus on my computer i wonder if that is what is holding it up
Could be since it (security software) is listed as #5 in the following:

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.
oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

I was in the middle of the new update and it said there was a error and now my ipod touch will not turn on or off or anything it is just a picture of the apple.
thank you
KristyError 11 is a strange one...if you search the discussions for error 11 you will get a number of hits but none with a real resolution other than getting the iPod to restore, which you have done. And one person indicates this does not appear in the support data base...already found that out.
If you have restored, have a backup and can restore from that, you might try the update again, or wait for the next update whenever that comes out.
Not a very satisfactory answer but if it is working again... -
My daughter forget her password and now her ipod touch is disabled. Red message says to connect to itunes. When I do connect to itunes, the device is not recognized and then a message comes on the screen that says it is locked and to enter the password to access it. I cannot access the password and since itunes does not recognize the device, it does not come up on the list on the left, i cannot reset it. What do I need to do so she can use her ipod touch again? Thanks
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I downloaded the latest version of itunes and now my ipod nano won't sync. The sync process appears to lock up on the 2nd song and will not continue to sync. I let it run all night the first time and it never went past the 2nd song. I unchecked the 2nd song so a different song would be 2nd, no benefit; reset my ipod nano; shut down laptop and restarted a different time; shorted the number of songs to sync; all without benefit.
When you connect your ipod up to the computer. It should show the device, usually with the name of the device, in my case 'jordan's ipod'. This should be on the row which shows 'songs', 'albums' e.t.c on the far right. There when you click on it it should go to a different screen showing a picture of your ipod along with two buttons - Update and Restore. Click update and it should take a 2 mins while your ipod is updated to the latest version of Ios.
After updating te ipod see if there is a change in results.
PS: make sure the device is active while syncing so keep tapping the screen.
