My iPod touch is not connecting with iTunes, i'm using Vista 32 bit. help?
My computer is recognizing it as a camera and itune is not recognizing it at all.
*i have downloaded iTune 7.5*
i've spent half an hour talking to the support people who ended up hanging up on me because they didnt seem to know what they were talking about and after half an hour nothing had changed and they gave up
any suggestions?
thanks
I followed the directions in your suggestion and got as far as step 4, but I never saw the "recovery mode" alert from iTunes. Instead, I got a windows wizard and went through the following steps with it hoping it would lead to the iTunes alert:
Found New Hardware Wizard
This Wizard helps you install software for
Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode)
Cannot install this Hardware
-because Wizard cannot find the necessary software
After clicking "Finish" an alert appeared on the bottom right hand corner of screen: A problem occured during hardware installation. Your hardware may not work properly.
Now I am back to a "Scanner and Camera Wizard" which I have gone through numerous times...
Do you have any other suggestions..??? Thanks for the above... I really thought it was going to work...

Ipod touch will not Sync with Itunes
Roomate deleted most of my music on my ipod touch and now it will not sync with itunes when I try to put the music back on.
- First try resetting the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- have you tried a different cable/USP port?
- Assuming a PC look here:

- you may have to place your iPod in recovery mode to get iTunes to see the iPod. For recovery mode see:

No, you have to update to iOS 5 via iTunes/USB. One you get iOS you can further update via wifi. -
New IPod Touch will not sync with Itunes-updated to iOS 7.1.1 for new IPod
Just purchased new IPod Touch (purchased 6-3-14 - had a Classic until it fried). After setting it up, I tried to sync to ITunes and it says it syncs but does nothing. No music transferred to IPod. I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8 if that means anything. This is very frustrating as I am not a computer whiz and really want to use my IPod in my really long commutes to work. Thanks for any insight...
Hi abbeyesque,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your iPod touch is recognized and syncing, but it isn't transferring the content that you expect to be transferred. Take a look at the article linked below, it will show you how to select the iPhone in iTunes and where the tabs are (second picture) that control what is synced to the iPod.
iOS: Syncing your data with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
Sync using USB
Open iTunes.
Connect the iOS device to your computer using the included USB cable.
Click the Device button in the upper-right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button first.) If you don't see your device, you may need to hide the sidebar. Choose View > Hide Sidebar.
Some tabs may not appear if you don't have the corresponding content in your library. For example, if you don't have any podcasts in your library, the Podcast tab won't appear.
Click Apply, in the lower-right corner of the screen, to sync.

Ipod touch will not sync with itunes 9
i have a large libary on my ipod touch that wont sync to itunes. Also will not load playlist. Just purchsed a few shows and i try and sync and i says its done but still not on the ipod touch. please help!!
Syncing on a touch is iTunes -> iPod, not the other way around. If you have a large library on your iPod that doesn't exist anywhere else (very bad practice) and need to move things to iTunes, you have two choices:
1. Purchased items can be transferred by selecting, in iTunes, File > Transfer my purchases
2. Music you have added from CDs you ripped yourself: Google "Pod to PC" for a freeware program that can do this for you.
As to your purchased shows, you most likely downloaded them in the wrong format. iTunes lists programs in HD (for the Apple TV) and regular definition for the iPod. Just go back and download the correct version.

Quick question, what is "arch-correct" way to use ABS as a normal user? Such as utilizing the /var/abs structure as it is? Right now I'm copying stuff to /var/abs/local and 'sudo makepkg'-ing. But that's root. Thanks.
