My ipod freezes when i connect it to my computer and it won't charge!
When I connect my Ipod to my computer it goes to the charging screen with the battery, but it is not charging. Then about an hour later it goes to the "Do not Disconnect" screen. I look up in the corner of the screen at the battery and it is not charging, like the screen before it. Also when the "Do Not Disconnet" screen is on I go to I tunes and my ipod is not reconized by it.
Windows XP

Sync problem - earlier today I updated both iTunes and my iPod Touch. Since then, I have tried syncing the two. The iPod Touch claims that there is no music on the iPod, however, when I connect it to my computer it says my full library is on there. At present, I am unable to listen to songs on the iPod when not connected to the computer. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks for any help!- Have you reset your iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next would be to backup your iPod and then restore you iPod from backup via iTunes. -
I can not recharge my Ipod Touch, when I connect it to the computer or the power cord. What do I do next to recharge the battery?
See the not-charging topic of:

when I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens and the phone begins charging but iTunes does not recognize it and I cannot sync. Any advice?
Howdy AndieKanaras,
It sounds like your iPhone is being recognized everywhere but in iTunes. I would use the troubleshooting for that issue in the following article, named:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac

I'm having problems with my ipod. Everytime I connect it to my computer, itunes crashes and it says that the device is not recognised. Any suggestions pleeease?
HI, if anyone can help, I appreciate it, I tried to
return it but lost the receipt and I bought it a week
ago so that kinda stings. Ok my PC froze today like
it did a million times before and I had to restore
it, after I restored it I tried to hooki up my ipod
and it said usb device not reconized. When I clicked
on that it said device is not reconized by windows. I
tried different usb ports and the same thing keeps
happening, but the ipod works when I hook it up to my
360 and all my songs are still on there. I also tried
re installing itunes and that didn't work either. If
anyone knows what I can do please help. Thanks.
I just got home from my dad's house and my ipod works fine on his PC, so I thought maybe my usb ports are faulty but all my other devices work on all my ports, the only thing that dosent work is my pod, so my pc isn't busted. If anyone knows what I can do please let me know, thanks for the help. -
Everything associated ipod freezes when it connects to my computer
Hi, when I connect my ipod classic to the computer I get an error message saying something is corrupted and that it's recommended to repair it. However it takes extremely long time so I ignore it.
When I connect it now everything associated with it freezes. Explorer.exe freezes when i try to access it from my computer, Itunes freezes and other products as well.
I've tried resetting it to fabric settings and I've changed the hard drive (it was pretty fried)
I still can't do anything, it has no songs as well.
I'm in vain please helpIt does not work. I restored it and synched it again. At first it works fine, I can synch music and play it from the Ipod, but after I've synched about 1 gb of music everything freezes, and when I close the computer to be able to let it go (the only way, everything's frozen) the Ipod acts like there's no music, even though it shows as having some storage when viewing from My Computer (which is also freezes)
I turned the HD in for service (actually going back, they're giving me my money back since it didn't solve the problem) and I'm pretty certain they did their job. -
When I connect my iPod (actually, two different iPods) to my computer, it instantly freezes. It is not recognized by iTunes and I can't detect it in My Computer. If I connect to a different computer, it works fine. I tried uninstalling and re-installing iTunes, but that didn't help
my ipod is freezing up and all i see on the screen is where i was when i connected the ipod to the computer, i.e if i am in the album flow, the screen will freeze on there and i cant do anything to get it unfrozen except reset my ipod using the up and center button

Ipod freeze when I connect, restart not working
When I plug the ipod into my computer it showes the normal "Do not disconnect" thing in the ipod... In windows it apears that I have connected a usb-device. But explorer, iTunes or iPod updater can find the device. Then I disconnect the iPod, but the ipod keep saying "do not disconnect". When I'm restart the ipod (select + menu) it works fine until I connect it to the computer
If u have an idea of how to solve this problem plz reply...I'm having the same problem, and nothing seems to work. This problem happened to me during Ipod Updater (i tried to restore) and then ipod updater froze, so being my stupid self, I removed the ipod.

My IPod froze when I connected it to the computer
When I connected my Ipod to the computer it froze and the computer is not regognizing it either... HELP! I don't know what to do.
I've only had it for just over two weeks, I hope it isn't broken.Have you tried reseting your ipod? (hold center button and menu down for 6-10 seconds. this may have to be repeated a few times.) also try making sure your itunes is up to date.

My iPod touch is off and wont turn on because it has the itunes logo and a usb pointing to it, so when i looked it up online, it says i have to restore it but i don't want to because i don't want to lose all my pictures. What can I do?
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 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.

I have a new ipod nano 7 and I want to transfer the songs that I had in my old (which died)... How do I do it?
Hello, tiburon1979.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would need a little clarification on the issue that you are experiencing to provide a better answer. However, if your device is not recognized by iTunes, try going through the steps in the article below.
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If the device is recognized and you are unable to select the syncing preference, see the article below as the steps have changed.
Sync your iPhone, iPad, and iPod with iTunes using USB

My itunes freezes when I connect my ipod....help!!
I have installed the new update (Windows 8 64 bit) & my itunes freezes when I connect my ipod.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

My ipod nano 3 freezes when i connect it to my pc?
my ipod nano 3 freezes when i connect it to my pc, i have to reset it so it gets recognised. this is abit annoying, so is their anyway to fix this problem ?
PS:I have ipod nano 4gb G3I have resolved this problem for me. I initially deleted and reinstalled iTunes and deleted any redundant programs which might have been creating a conflict (I have children who install all kinds of rubbish) Someone else had found a USB program conflict and I think my problem was around a conflict with the USB ports. I removed a printer connection which was (unusually) connected via a port next to the ipod connection and plugged the ipod in via a different port and bingo - all is well.

Is 6Mb REALLY all I can get out of my Rage Pro video port?
All the material I've found online says only 4Mb sodimm's can be used in the expansion slot. I'm assuming that it's because either no other size chips will physically fit or people have tried and the system doesnt recognize more than 6Mb. input?
