I have a 3rd gen Ipod touch. When I connect it to my Macbook pro to sync it with itunes, it doesn't show up on iTunes. When I connect my iPhone 6 to my computer it syncs, backs up, ect. How do I make this older iPod show up on my iTunes?
Hi ChristianHelpplz,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It seems like your iPod touch is not recognized by iTunes on your Mac, but your iPhone 6 is working normally.
I recommend starting with these steps to troubleshoot your iPod touch and connection with your Mac:
Check your USB connections
Unplug other USB devices from your Mac and try again.
Try a different USB port.
Try a different USB cable.
Restart your device
Restart your iOS device or reset your iPod.
Restart your Mac
Turn your Mac off and back on.
Update your software
Check for software updates on your Mac.
Check for an iTunes update.
Check your security software
If you have security software installed, learn how to resolve issues between iTunes and your security software.
From:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
If you've tried these steps and your iPod touch is still not recognized, try placing it into Recovery Mode next:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

Just bought new iPod touch. When I connect to computer to sync it tells me "iTunes could not connect to this iPod touch. Could not send a message to device." Not sure if it is b/c of an older version of iTunes but connecting via wifi sync unacceptable
What version of iTunes is on the computer? You need at least 11.4.

Just restored and updated my ipod and now when I connect it to my computer I get a message saying "this ipod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started" what does this mean?
I'd start with the following document with that one:

OSX 10.9 UBS would not recognize devices removed or ejected when re-connected without a reboot.
OSX 10.9 UBS would not recognize devices removed or ejected when re-connected without a reboot. First saw this with my Time Machine backup drive. Ejected it to put it into a different USB port and Finder never saw it unless I rebooted. Next it happened with my Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920. Skype recognized the device, but no video feed (audio microphone did work). Unplugging and replugging the Webcam (and closing and restarting Skype) had the same result; had to reboot the computer (MacBook Pro Retina 15.4, 16 GB RAM) to get it to recognize the device.
Next had a meeting on another new MacBook Pro Retina 15.4 in our conference room hooked up to a 36 inch monitor and the same Logitec Webcam model (not the same device) connected directly into the MB Pro USB port; same exact problem as above.
Any thoughts?I have a powered USB 2 hub connected. The problem remained whether or not the devices were plugged in directly or through the hub. Beyond that, the camera is a USB 3 device... Thanks, but any other thoughts?

I'm running windows7 and I'm trying to connect my iPhone4 and iPod touch2 to itunes. I've installed the latest version of iTunes, and updated my iPhone's driver. When I connect either device to iTunes I get the message "you need to uninstall and reinstall itunes". I've done this multiple times with the same results. This is very frustrating, HELP!!!
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

My ipod shuts down when I connect it to the computer.
My ipod works perfectly fine. But when I connect it to my computer it just shuts down. Sometimes it says low battery. And sometimes it just shuts right off. I tried to reset it, but that doesn't help. And my computer won't recognize it because the power won't come on when its connected. Any suggestions??
If you put it into disk mode and connect it to your computer can you see it in Device Manager or My Computer?

Imac not showing the contents of my classic iPod and iPad when i connect them to the iMac?
imac not showing the contents of my ipod classic and ipad when i connect them to my imac?
That's not much to go on.
What operating system and version are you using? Are you using the most recent version of iTunes? If so, did you update prior to this happening? What other changes might have triggered this? What troubleshooting have you done already and what was the result? -
Ipod freezes itunes when I connect it to computer and won't sync
I have a 120GB ipod classic, and I got it not even 3 months ago. It was working fine and now when I connect it to my computer itunes freezes and my ipod doesn't show up on it. However, it does show up under my computer.
Anyways, then I unplug my ipod and a message pops up on the computer that says it couldn't sync my ipod because a required folder is missing. My ipod plays music fine, it just won't connect to itunes!
I know it's not the computer because I connected my ipod to another computer and the same thing happend. Also I connected my old ipod to my computer and that one showed up fine.
I am very frustrated!! Does anyone know how to fix this?Have you tried doing a reset on the iPod? That may help if its the ipod directly... It may have something where it's not breaking to do the SYNC with the computer
Here's a link to help you with the reset, what ever you do just don't do the "restore" setp.. As this link does the whole 5 r's to help resovle issues...

IPod 60GB Freezes When I Connect to USB
I read a lot of the postings related to this topic, but none seem to fit my situration.
I have an iPod 60Gb I have been using without problems, synching regularly with iTunes, since Christmas. In the past couple of days, when I plug it into the USB port, I get the "Do Not Disconnect" message, which never goes away. Toggling the Hold switch does not reset it. Pressing the center and Menu buttons for 6 seconds does not reset it when the iPod is plugged into the USB port, but it does reset it if I first unplug the iPod from the USB port. Once reset, if I again plug it into the USB port, it freezes, and I have to unplug and reset again.
I moved the USB connector to another port, with no effect.
When I plug the iPod into the USB port, it does not appear in the iTunes display (and if iTunes is not running, it does not invoke iTunes), nor does it show up in Windows as a disk drive under My Computer.
I thought perhaps the iPod was conflicting with another drive, so I fired up the Disk Management utility under the Windows System Accessories and then connected the iPod to a USB port. Even though Windows makes the sound of a drive connecting to the system, nothing shows up in the Disk Management window to indicate a new drive has been connected, or that anything is conflicting with an existing drive.
I have performed the first three of the five R's recommended by Apple - Reset, Retry, and Restart. I have not tried to Reinstall because I have the latest version of the iTunes and iPod software (2006-01-10), and since the iPod is not connecting via the USB port, I do not see how running the Updater on my desktop PC is going to be able to push any updates to my iPod.
I am trying to avoid the 5th R, Restore, as that seems a bit extreme and that it will result in a lot of collateral damage from slicking the hard drive.
Any suggestions?
Dell Dimension 8400 Windows XP ProHi there,
I'm having the same problem too. I've even gone so far as to try the 5th R. Twice now. The first time, as long as he iPod remained in it's dock afterward, it would still appear in iTunes and on my desktop so that I was able to sync it properly. However, upon disconnecting it and re-inserting it in the dock it was no longer recognoized and reverted back to it's usual "do not disconnect" screen.
At first I thought that it might have been a cabling issue, as I'd around the same time that I'd first experienced the problem, I switched from the USB 2.0 cable to a FireWire cable beween the computer and the dock. However, upon switching back, the problem remained. Furthermore, I'd recently picked up a newer 5G iPod. I've had no problems with it at all. So the dock, cable and ports that it's connected to are all fully functional.
I tried the restore another time tonight. Once again, the restore was successful. It copied all of my music back to the iPod. However, this time the unit managed to get itself stuck back in the "do not disconnect" state again without my disconnecting it from the cradle after the restore. So it's even worse than last time.
In the Disk Utility, the iPod appears. I can use the Verify Disk tool and it appears OK. As well, I can eject the iPod from here, which is successful at making the "Do not disconnect" screen go away. However, upon disconnecting and then reconnecting the iPod to the cradle, it sends itself back into a tizzy -- the unit appears as a disk in the Disk Utility, but iTunes cannot see the device as an iPod, nor does it appear as one on the desktop.
