Try:

BTW, you posted in the iPod touch forum. An iPod touch uses different drivers than other iPods.

My ipod classic has started making a mewing sound and all it does is scroll through the songs. It will not play except when connected to my computer. I tried resyncing and that did not work. How do I fix this problem?

My ipod classic has started making a mewling sound and all it does is scroll through the songs. It does not play on my Bose sound dock or through earbuds. It will play when connected to the computer...but that makes it hard to take it on a walk with me I thought it might be a synching problem so tried that--still doesn't work. How do I fix this problem with out restoring it to the factory setting? I do not want to lose all my music content as some of it I cannot replace easily. Please help with suggestions and advice. Thanks. Karen in GA

Have you recharge your iPod for at least 2 hours, preferably till the Full charge Battery symbol comes ON.?

Ipod Touch is not recognised by Windows XP and does not appear in Itunes

I received an Ipod touch recently and set up an Itunes account and quite happily used Itunes and the Ipod touch for about six weeks without any problems. I installed all of the required software updates for the Ipod but about 3 weeks ago began to have problems.
1) When connecting the Ipod to the computer through the same USB port as usual, I received a message saying that 'charging is not supported by this accessory'
2) The Ipod is no longer recognised by Itunes
3) When connecting via the USB port, message received stating that 'device is not recognised' and it shows up as an unknown device in device manager. When connected it appears to set up empty disk drives under the E, F, G and H drives with an associated system volume also being set up.
I have re-installed Itunes, Apple Mobile and Bonjour on several occassions, I have cleaned the computers registry, tried the selective start up option via MSCONFIG and ried to re-install the drivers all to no avail.I have also tried a system restore back to before this all began.
I know the USB ports are working, I have checked them, there is obviously a conflict somewhere that is stopping Apple software working on my computer but as I haven't made any software changes or hardware changes since before this sorry saga began I am running out of ideas.
Any assistance / ideas would be gratefully received

I don't know what I did, but now it works!!! :O

My iPod (4 gen) is stuck in recovery mode and it will not restore. How do I fix it?

So here is what happened: my iPod went dead and when I went to plug it in to charge I noticed it wasn't doing the normal little battery charging symbol nor did it pop up with the apple symbol. When I opened up iTunes it told me that my iPod was stuck in recovery mode and that the only way to fix it was by restoring it. As much as it pained me to do so I did it anyways. It did the routine update and restore window, I waited the 28 minutes, but still nothing. Now when I go to restore it a window pops up that says that the iPod cannot be restored because the iPod update server cannot be contacted or is currently unavailable. I'm at a loss. This the the only form of communication that I have available to me and I need it fixed A.S.A.P. Please help!
Additional Details
My iPod is NOT jailbroken.
Now it says and unknown error occurred (3194) please help!
The lock/hold button on my iPod is broken. My iPod cannot be locked, unlocked, or shut down using this button.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

PLease help she's 8 years old and is driving me freakin nuts. I cannot get on itunes on my computer it does think im online if there is any other way besides itunes or having to go to the apple store please i need to know

The only way is to connect the iPod to a computer with iTunes and restore. It may be necessary to place the iPod in recovery mode in order to restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

I tryed plugging it in to charge and pressing down on the hold button and home button but its not doing anything, How do i fix it? Not sure what my operating system is but i know i havent updated to the newest version.

Try:

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Try
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
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.

The iPod sees the new computer as a new iTunes library. You can only sync with one iTunes library. However, you can manage music among disfferent computers. See:

My iPod cannot be synced because the required file could not be found. How do I fix this problem?

Peace. My name is Free. Thanks in advance for any help u can offer. My iPod cannot be synced because the required file could not be found. How do I fix this problem?

Hi antiklady,
I see that you may be having an issue with compatibility of iTunes when connecting your iOS device. This sort of issue can arise if you have two versions of iTunes installed on your computer, which I feel may be the case. Here is an article that can tell you how to identify the version of iTunes that you have open:
iTunes: How to find which version you are using - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201521
If the version of iTunes that is opened is not the version you are required to use for the iOS device in question, try searching through your computer or applications folder to see if there may be two versions of iTunes installed on your computer. Then, uninstall the version that is incompatible using these steps:
Remove and reinstall iTunes and related software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 - Apple Support

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
