  • My iPod will charge in the computer but not my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same sofware and generation. Why won't mine charge?

    My Ipod will charge in the computer but noy my iPod dock, my sisters iPod dock or the wall charger. My sisters iPod will charge in all and we both have the same software and generation. Why won't mine charge?

    Look the dock connector on your iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corred contacts, foreign material and cracked/broken plastic.
    Try:
    - 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..
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod

  • My ipod wont connect to the computer but will connect to an ipod stereo

    I have a 2nd generation nano that I have had for 2 years, but not used very much. It has always worked fine and still does however it wont connect to the computer at all. I have tried different ipod usb cables and different computers. It will charge and play on an ipod stereo. I would like to be able to hook it up to the computer so I can put more music on it. Has anyone had this problem before?

    Update to the newest version of iTunes if that doesn't work
    Try uninstalling the drivers,
    Plug in your iPod
    Right click on My Computer and click on Manage
    that will bring you to the Computer Management
    On the left hand side click on device manager
    on the right side click on the plus sign next to Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    it will show a list, in that list locate iPod or USB mass storage device
    right click and select uninstall
    Unplug your iPod and plug it back in
    Windows should automatically start installing them again
    if nothing pops up then right click on Universal Serial Bus Controllers
    and choose scan for hardware changes

  • IPod connects to the computer, but not to iTunes

    When I connect my 30 gb iPod to the computer, the "do not disconnect" screen appears on the iPod, but it does not show up on a Source list on iTunes nor does it update. The iPod does appear in the Finder, so I know the connection is made. I have OSX 10.4.11 and just updated to iTunes 8, but this problem occurred prior to the update (I was hoping the update would solve the problem!). What to do???

    Yep add me to that list too, and I have tried the menu and select button on the ipod all that happens is the contrast goes very faint, tried the combo thing and it tells me it can't be installed on this computer, tried the 5 R's on the ipod frequent question page, all do nothing, totally un impressed with Apple for the first time, never had any problems but version 8 of itunes really needs bugging out before it was released, if anyone has any other ideas please do add them as I have just bought a whole load of music which is sat on my library and cant move to ipod...oh and I have also tried the create a new account and see if that works, well I could see the ipod but couldnt transfer the contents back to itunes - sooooooo unhappy can't do apple care as classic ipod is way past 2 years

  • My ipod, when pluged into the computer, is not recognized by itunes.

    When i plug in my ipod, it wont show up under devices in itunes, but it is showing up under devices in my computer. A message pops up saying "do you want to scan and fix your ipod". I close that message. Then couple minutes later i get another window message, that says "Autoplay" and there is a bar that says "searching for content..." I close that message also.  When i disconnect my ipod, in itunes it says "The ipod cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found." i hit the okay button, because its my only option. When the message is up, the ipod shows up in the devices section of itunes. One night i plugged in my ipod, and it got to a point where it was recognized in itunes, but it the top middle bar of itunes, it said " varifying ipod" the next morning i woke up, it was still saying that.

    Do the iPod Disk Diagnostic, as posted by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but help in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!
