My iPod Shuffle is not being recognized.

Please help!
I recieved my iPod in September 2005. It has been working perfectly fine until this month. I've been trying to add more songs to my iPod. I connected my shuffle to the USB port, and all I am recieving is my iPod blinking orange. I have tried all of the three R's, yet it hasn't affected my results in any way. When trying to download the new iTunes, it would stop downloading or just disappear. If anyone has anything that could help me, please reply!
Signed,
Kelly

  • HT1510 My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. I have the original USB cord but when I plug it into my computer there is no recognition. The first time I plugged it in it recognized but never again.

    My iPod shuffle is not being recognized by my computer. It is flashing orange and when plugged in with the original USB cable nothing happens to show the computer recognizes it.

    Flashing orange usually means it is being recognized by the computer.  The flashing means do not disconnected, because the shuffle's "disk" is mounted.
    In iTunes (with the shuffle connected), when you look in the sidebar (left side of window), under DEVICES, the iPod is not shown there?  Does it say DEVICES in the sidebar?

  • My ipod shuffle is not being recognized by Itunes.

    I tried all the steps in the Apple troubleshooting guide, no luck.  I'm operating a PC, the current version if ITunes and a Version 4 Shuffle.  Can anyone suggest a fix?  Thanks! 

    If you see it in Windows as the F drive, that is good.  So, I wonder why you are not able to follow the procedure to re-assign the drive letter.  If Windows sees the iPod's disk, it should appear in Disk Management. 
    Try shutting down the computer, and disconnecting all USB devices, including hub.  Start up the computer with only standard keyboard and mouse connected, if normally used.  Do this to Reset the shuffle

    Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer (the one you use with your iPod touch).

  • My 4th generation ipod touch is not being recognized on my computer ?

    My 4th generation ipod touch is not being recognized on my computer what do i do ?

    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    or
    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
    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
    iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
    - Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

    Hey MOIMC,
    Sorry to hear your computer isn't recognizing your iPod Touch when you plug it in. I was able to find two articles that might help you out:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    and
    iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB

  • My shuffle is not being recognized.

    My shuffle is not being recognized on my computer.  Have tried all USB ports and cables.  Still nothing.  What can I do to remedy this?  Just purchased several new songs and want to sync to shuffle.

    Are you sure the connections on each end are nice and snug?

  • TS3716 ipod nano is not being recognized by iTunes.

    My ipod nano 2nd generation (and working perfectly) is not being recognized by iTunes.
    Any suggestions?

    Does the iPod work OK?
    Have you tied resetting the iPod? Nothing will be 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.
    Next would be to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore via iTunes.  If iTunes does not see the iPod then the iPod is not usable. For recovery mode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • IPod Frozen and Not Being Recognized in iTunes

    I have two problems.
    1. My iPod is frozen. It says it's playing and it's not. Tried the toggle hold on and off trick then tried hold the play and the middle button down to reset and restore, but nothing happens.
    2. The iPod isn't being recognized by iTunes. HELP!

    The select button + menu button thing worked, I just realized that when I was trying it before the hold was still on (since I was "toggling it"). I feel stupid...

  • Ipod classic suddenly not being recognized on PC

    Hi,
    My ipod classic (7th gen) used to work fine and was recognized on my PC and in iTunes. BUT now it has suddenly stopped being recognized on the PC. My other ipod classic works fine and is recognized by the PC and iTunes as soon as I plug it in (same dock with the same lead), so it can't be anything to do with the lead / USB / dock.
    I have tried resetting the ipod, uninstalling & reinstalling iTunes, to no avail.
    Can anyone please help?!
    I use Windows 8.1 (64-bit).
    Thanks,
    Mike
