My ipod touch is not recognised by windows 8 or itunes

Help!!!  My ipod touch has now stopped working on Windows 8 and in itunes.  It does not even recognise it when I connect it.  My Nano shuffle still works fine!!

See:
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, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
The iPod touch use additional drivers than the Nano.

  • 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.

  • Ipod Touch is not recognised by Windows XP and does not appear in Itunes

    I received an Ipod touch recently and set up an Itunes account and quite happily used Itunes and the Ipod touch for about six weeks without any problems. I installed all of the required software updates for the Ipod but about 3 weeks ago began to have problems.
    1) When connecting the Ipod to the computer through the same USB port as usual, I received a message saying that 'charging is not supported by this accessory'
    2) The Ipod is no longer recognised by Itunes
    3) When connecting via the USB port, message received stating that 'device is not recognised' and it shows up as an unknown device in device manager. When connected it appears to set up empty disk drives under the E, F, G and H drives with an associated system volume also being set up.
    I have re-installed Itunes, Apple Mobile and Bonjour on several occassions, I have cleaned the computers registry, tried the selective start up option via MSCONFIG and ried to re-install the drivers all to no avail.I have also tried a system restore back to before this all began.
    I know the USB ports are working, I have checked them, there is obviously a conflict somewhere that is stopping Apple software working on my computer but as I haven't made any software changes or hardware changes since before this sorry saga began I am running out of ideas.
    Any assistance / ideas would be gratefully received

    I don't know what I did, but now it works!!! :O

  • My 4th gen ipod touch and my 6th gen ipod touch is not recognized by windows 8 or itunes

    Help! Both of my ipods are refusing to be recognized by both windows 8 and itunes. I've tried many different things from redownloading itunes, plugging the cables into different usb ports, using different cables, etc. I'm upset because I have no other ipods availabe and I really cannot afford to buy another one.

    Hello Caitlin,
    I'd suggest taking a look through the following article for a whole host of useful troubleshooting steps that can help get your iPods to reappear in iTunes.

  • IPod Touch is not recognized by Windows Computer or iTunes

    All the USB ports are fine and the cable work perfectly. When I plug in my Ipod it shows that its charging but the computers dont do anything.
    I checked devices and even fiddled with some third party softwares that might be blocking it but nothing is working.
    my Ipod, Itunes, computer, and antivirus software is all up to date. I tried reseting my Ipod and computer and reinstalling Itunes.
    I also uninstalled itunes removed all components and reinstalled still not recognized.
    I tried a second computer and have the same issue.
    Any Suggestions what to try next?

    Try a different charging/docking cable.  If that does not work then you may have a problem with the docking connector in the iPod itself...

    Does it charge?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another cable
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store.

    Your Touch is working correctly. Currently, without unsupported third party hacks, the Touch has NO disc mode. It will only show up in iTunes.
    how do i put programes and games in my ipod touch
    Right now, you don't. The SDK is scheduled to be released in Feburary. Then developers will be able to write programs that will be loadable.

    It doesn't quite work that way. Transfer your music from the old computer to the new one. Then, sync the iPod.

  • My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges, Please help

    My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges when connected via USB Please help

    Did plugging it into another USB port do any good? Make sure it is a USB port on the back of your PC and not via a USB hub or one on the front as they sometimes do not output enough power for the iPod to properly communicate with your PC.
    Do you have another 30 pin dock connector cable around you use to try and rule out a faulty cable? 
    Did you try a hard reset of the device with it still connected to your PC?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    With the article above were you able to verify that the Apple Mobile Device Service was installing and running on your system?
    Lastly, try plugging it into a different PC to see if it is recognized there.  It can help narrow down whether it is an issue with the iPod or with your PC.
