  • My iPod Touch is not being recognised by iTunes or my computer, yet still charges. I have done EVERYTHING.

    When I plug my iPod in, my computer makes the 'ding' noise. However, neither the computer or iTunes actually recognises that there is anything there, yet it still charges.
    This iPod is BRAND NEW. I havn't even had the chance to ACTIVATE it yet. I installed the latest version of iTunes. I have tried THREE different USB cords, and EVERY USB available. I have restarted my computer. I have restarted the iPod. I have waited until it was charged. I have spend about HOURS going through Apple Support, and looking up alternative solutions from people having a similar problem. Most of their problems were fixed by wiping the iPod... mine isn't even activated yet.
    Solve this one, Apple. WITHOUT sending me a replacement.

    Is iTunes version 11 installed? Just do not say latest.
    Did you try everything here?
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    including here
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    Next try another computer to help determine if you have an iPod/cable or computer problem
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • HT1386 Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itune

    Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itunes, therefore i can't change playlists or add songs etc. Is this a fault with itunes as it was fine with the older version or is there something i can do. I'm not on IOS yet but would like to backup my phone first but can't do that atm due to not being able to view my phone on itunes!
    Thanks

    Hi, jodie_0182.
    I would recommend the steps in the article below.  See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

    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

  • TS1567 My ipod touch is not being recongnised by my laptop, not even receiveing charge, any help gratefully received.

    My ipod touch is not being recongnised by my laptop, not even receiving charge, please help!?

    I am afraid that the solution did not work... the ipod touch of mine seems really not functioning. It receives an electric isgnal from the computer but it doesnt sync at all... Whenever I put my ipod touch off and plug it to my computer it turns on but it doesnt sync... .. Moreover, I have used different PCs so as to try it syncing.. I have used mac book pro and windows 7 laptops but it gives similar feedback, which is NO FEEDBACK at all...

  • My ipod touch is not getting recognised after the update in my itunes library. the library is updated. and it shows the connect to itunes sign.

    my ipod touch is not getting recognised after the update in my itunes library. i have updated my library as well. but it shows the connect to itunes sign on my ipod.

    If it happened after updating iTunes on the computer see:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    or
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    If after updating the iOS on your iPod:
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod touch is not being recognized by my computer and gives no feedback when I connect it to my pc

    Hi... I really need some help from you guys. My ipod touch is not responding whenever I connect it to my PC. It gives no feedback. The battery image that is shown when I charge my ipod touch doesn't show up unlike if I charge it using the wall charger. I have used different kinds of ports and I ended up with similar things. No response! . However, I can still use my ipod and play music with it. The only problem is its syncing ability is gone. I have only used it for a year now and the warranty that came with it is expired. I hope I can get a good answer from you guys. ThanKs!!!

  • My iPad2 is not being recognised as a device by my mac or my PC?

    All programmes are up to date. The iPad pops up in itunes but nothing else. It's not recognised as a device in image capture either. Any ideas why?
    The problem is I have a whole pile of photos that I want to get off the ipad that I can't access because it's not being recognised.
    I could email them all to myself but this would take forever. Entirely the opposite of convenient, which I thought the iPad was supposed to be.
    Photo stream only works so so, it's not sending all of my photos across, just ones it randomly selects. I really don't understand what that's about.
    If anyone has any tips they would be greatly appreciated.
    So far I have:
    -updated iPhoto software
    -updated iPad software
    -reset iPad
    -turned everything off and on again.
    Nothing seems to work.
    Looking forward to hearing a solution,
    Aoife

    How did the photos get onto the iPad ? If they were synced from a computer then they won't appear in Image Capture (or iPhoto or Aperture, and on a PC windows camera wizard and windows explorer) - there are third-party apps such as Simple Transfer which you can use to copy those back via your wifi network (but photos are 'optimised' when synced to the iPad, so if you do copy them back they may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer).
    If you have photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit or saved from emails/website then the iPad should appear in those applications so that you can then copy those photos off the iPad.
