See

- 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
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

HT1329 Trying to transfer playlist from iPod nano (gen4) to a new windows computer with iTunes.

We are trying to connect a iPod Nano (gen4) to a new Win7 computer. The iPod doesn't show up on iTunes and the message says that it can't be synched to a another computer. There are more playlist on the iPod that are not on the computer. How do I connect this iPod to the new Win7 box and transfer the playlist to iTunes.

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

IPod Nano isn't showing up at all in iTunes.

My ipod hasn't been showing up at all in itunes. I've tried it on a few different computers including the one I got all my music off of in the past but all it does is charges like it's hooked up to a wall charger.

My new Ipod Nano isn't recognized by my computer or by ITunes. What could be some reasons?

My new Ipod Nano 7 does not come up as a drive on my computer. The computer clunks to acknowledge a new device is attached but it is not shown in explorer. ITunes DOES open as it should, but it gives me a message "An IPod has been detected but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the IPod and try again. If the problem persists, please uninstall ITunes and reinstall ITunes." We did all that, several times. The new IPod does work correctly on our other laptop, of the same generation, with similar security. Could this be a block specific to some security on my computer? We tried all ports on my computer. I can't troubleshoot using my previous IPod because I put it through the laundry - thus the reason for a new one.

Hi MartyP680,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It appears that you're receiving a message that your iPod nano can't be identified properly, and you've already tried removing and reinstalling iTunes. You've also isolated this behavior to only one of your PCs.
If the issue persists, there are some additional tips in this article that may help, including verifying that the Apple Mobile Device Support service installed properly and is running:
iPod nano: Error message saying that iPod could not be identified properly - Apple Support
The "Learn More" section also mentions some other potentially conflicting software to look for on your PC.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Neither my computer nor ITunes recognizes my Ipod nano 7th generation. It was working fine until I ran an intensive AVG PC tuneup on the laptop. Device manager recognizes the Ipod and says it is working correctly. I have done all suggested troubleshooting and nothing has yet worked. Additional suggestions or info I should provide?

Ipod Nano does not appear in "My Computer" and "Itunes"

I was charging my Ipod Nano. I erased all the songs from the nano to create a new playlist. The Ipod froze in the "Do not disconnect" phase. It was disconnected a few hours later (not intentionally). Now it has disappeared from Itunes and the computer does not recognize it. The Ipod screen still says "Do not Disconnect". I have tried to reconnect the device many times. I have tried to "toggle the hold button" and even shut the computer down and restarted it to see if it would recognize the ipod. No luck. I cannot turn the ipod on and the screen is still dark and the "Do Not Disconnect" seems to be perminant. HELP!

See if any of these articles help.

Ipod nano 6th generation wont connect to computer or itunes, but still charges

I have an Ipod nano 6 that will not connect to my computer. It still charges however. I tried a new cord. I uninstalled and reinstalled itunes. I reset my computer and the ipod.

New ipod nano 4gen doesn't connect to computer, or itunes!!!

i just got a new ipod and when i connected it my computer said new software connected, and had "install" or "install later". i clicked install and it said software for download could not be found.
i thought because it wasn't fully charged yet, so i let it charge.
i disconnected it and tried again, the same thing happened.
i then went to "my computer" and it didn't show up there either. then i went to itunes and there it didn't say anything.
my sister has the older ipod nano and i used the same cord and it connected. so its not the cord, or itunes because hers shows up.
i then went to my aunts house and tried to install it there. it actually did show up on her computer, but it didn't fully register because her itunes won't connect to her internet access.
I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO DO NOW! PLEASE HELP ME!

Same problem. Mine just flashes the Apple logo when connected. I've tried all the suggested methods that you have aswell. NO warranty, what now? Any luck with you?

I moved to Europe and now my iPod nano isn't recognized by French version of iTunes

I have a laptop with Window 7.
Since in France, in order to buy music on iTunes I had to download its French version, letting me keep the music already there. But now I don't seem to be able to synchronize and/or update my iPods (I have one first generation and one touch 6 th generation).
I must say that, before I left the U.S., I downloaded music on the iPods from another computer - my main desk computer (and account with iTunes). So, would it be a problem because the libraries are different in each computer or because the account is now in a different country?
I am lost... Some help would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you carefully worked through each and every single suggestion in this Apple support document?

My iPod touch is not recognised by the computer or iTunes

I have recently whiped my laptop and did a clean install of Windows 7. Now the iPod and the computer both beep when I connectn it to the computer BUT it does not appear as a drive i the computer, it is not recognised in iTunes and it does not show to be that it is charging.
I have uninstalled iTunes and all the associsted softwar (in the order designated) and reinstalled iTunes, powered down and restarted both deviceses, and stopped and restarted the Apple Mibile Device software. I even tried to "restore" the iPod and did the whipe on it (bad choise) now it displays the cord and plug and is asking to be connected to iTunes. but the laptop and iPod are not talking past the initial beeps.
Not sure where to go from here.

Did you try everything here:

My ipod nano isn't syncing when I try and change the setting in manually, but is however syncing when I launch the itunes by plugging it in. I'm wondering if anyone has had this issue and/or had been able to fix the problem?

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.
