In System Profiler it is calling it an ALi MP3 Player. I bought it on eBay.
It should be called "iPod" IF it were a REAL, genuine Apple iPod shuffle.
What you have is a FAKE... which explains why it isn't shoing up in iTunes.
IF it was advertised as an Apple iPod shuffle by the seller, I would try to get my money back.
Case closed...

  • I can't get my new (used) iPod shuffle to appear in My Computer or iTunes Devices

    I can't get my used iPod shuffle to appear in My Computer or iTunes Devices.  Any ideas?

    Which iPod shuffle model is it?  This article about syncing the shuffle shows the four types.

    As a test, you can try shutting down (powering off) and disconnecting all USB devices (including hub).  Start it up with only standard keyboard and mouse connected (if it's not a laptop).  Run iTunes.  Connect shuffle to a direct USB port.

    And neither will it. Any playlists on the iPod will show under "devices" (when your iPod is connected).
    Btw, this a forum for the iPod mini not the shuffle. You might want to post in a shuffle forum.

  • Ipod icon wont appear on lower right hand side to transfer songs to shuffle

    why is it that the ipod icon wont appear on the lower right hand side of itunes to transfer songs to shuffle?
    the icon for the ipod shuffle is there but i dont have the icon that transfers the songs to the shuffle 512mb. how do i get my songs on there?

    How did you wind up without a User's Guide? Or avoid finding out that you can download a complete copy of it from the Support spaces at Apple?
    The little icon you're describing is the one for iPod Preferences and has nothing at all to do with transferring songs. It won't show up, however, unless and until the iPS is mounted and visible by iTunes. Not seeing it appear there means your Shuffle isn't mounted.
    As for the rest, sorry .... don't have a clue what you might mean. Using vague terms like '...this thing ...' and ' .... on there ...' doesn't really do much but lead to more questions which, in any event, I'm not asking.
    Get a copy of the User's Guide, read it, then post back (if you still need to) with specific questions.

  • My iPod classic wont connect to the computer. The light comes on but it doesn't even come up with 'connected' screen. Have tried everything on apple troubleshoot but hasn't helped. Still works in Logitech iPod player. Any suggestions please???

    My iPod classic wont connect to the computer. The light comes on but it doesn't even come up with 'connected' screen on the ipod. Have tried different computers, usb cables and ports, as well as restarting computer, updating itunes, and rebooting ipod. Still works in Logitech iPod player, however it has just wiped itself of all songs so at the moment I'm stuck with a useless iPod. Any suggestions please???

    If you happen to have a USB docking cable that is new (or close to being new), try using that one.  If the cause is the dock connector on the iPod becoming worn, if you try it with a cable that is not worn, it's possible that it may connect for data.
    I believe the dock connector is internally part of the logic board, so it may not be economical to have a repair shop (including Apple Store Genius Bar) do the repair.  You'll need to ask for pricing. 
    If you are good at such things, this web site has DIY repair guides

    If it's the most recent iPod classic, it appears to be quite difficult to pry open.  I have an older 4th gen (and 3rd gen) "classic" iPod, and those are fairly eash to pry open, using the plastic tools.
