My ipod is not showing on my itunes account

I cannot sync, my ipod is not on my itunes account, how do I get it back?

What normally works for me is if I unplug it, then plug it back in with the iPod off. Then, while it is plugged in, turn the iPod on.

  • Ipod is not showing up in itunes

    my ipod is not showing up in itunes. What's going on?

    1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
    2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
    3. Check the USB cable
    4. Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
    5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
    6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job.
    7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

  • I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account

    I have registered with and validated click and buy but it is not showing on my itunes account???

    In iTunes these should theoretically be available on the iTunes Store home page.
    On the right of that page under Quick Links find Purchased section (if available for your country) and then choose the TV Show category and choose to download there - it doesn't happen automatically.
    If not in US you won't be able to redownload movies (yet anyway).
    If a title is not available there are reasons for this but you'd expect it to be if you've only just bought it.
    Actually I prefer buying in iTunes - I bought some TV episodes on AppleTV but cannot complete my season in iTunes - maybe i can't for that show (support were useless) but I do wonder if it's because the purchase was made on ATV.

  • IPod Touch not showing up in iTunes, already read Apple Troubleshooting

    My iPod Touch is not showing up in iTunes on my iMac.  I cannot find it from my iMac when I search for it.  I have tried using different USB ports and have restarted the iPod and the computer.  The iPod does not appear to be charging through the computer either since there is no symbol across the battery.  I am able to use the same cable with the wall charger and charge the iPod successfully.   

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.
