My ipod Touch is NOT uploading info to my computer when syncing

I have had this iMac in the genius bar TWICE in 24 hours...and of course they just did their "job" by just reinstalling the OS..I could have done that at home and saved me all that trouble...a corrupt file was picked up online and it messed with everything,not opening Safari(I do not like it anyway)...but now I am doing just the SIMPLE things to get back my computer & iTouch....and it is not uploading data I input on the iPod to the computer when syncing. I have had an Apple computer(s) for over 20 years...and this is the worse one ever, even thinking of switching brands, it's that BAD!
Thanks for help!

Welcome to the discussions,
can you sync your purchases from the ipod to iTunes? Try to download a free app using the ipod and choose "Transfer purchases" in the File menu in iTunes when you have connected your device. Disable autosync first. Also make sure your iMac is authorized in the Store menu and you did a reset of the sync history in iSync/settings. Make sure to have at least one contact set up in your address book on your mac before you sync your contacts.

    Hey khdewey,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPod touch being recognized in iTunes on your Mac. The following resource may provide a solution:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591
    Note: This article is for Mac OS X users. If you're using a Windows PC, please refer to these troubleshooting suggestions.
    Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
    1. Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    2. Install software updates on your Mac.
    Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
    3. Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
    4. Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
    5. Restart your Mac.
    Additional Information
    In rare circumstances, your device may be recognized after reinstalling iTunes, but after you restart your Mac, the device may not be recognized again. If this happens and you're using Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard, please follow these steps.
    Thanks,

  • IPod Touch is not showing up in My Computer

    I realize that there are several other topics that talk about this problem, but so far none have really helped me. My goal is to have my iPod Touch be recognized as a camera so I can upload all my photos from my Saved Photos to my computer and finally clear up some much needed space on it. Please don't refer me to software that will allow me to move photos from my iTouch to my PC because either they are all only trial versions or they don't allow me to access the images from my Saved Photos album.
    Currently my iPod Touch does not show up in My Computer. I'm running Windows XP. Checking my Device Manager for the driver, the only driver that comes up that relates to my iPod is called Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling that driver (and one I was able to get the iPod to show up in My Computer as a camera but when I clicked on it, it said that there were no pictures in the device [and I clearly do], and after uninstalling the driver again and reinstalling it the icon went away). I've read that maybe uninstalling iTunes and then reinstalling it might fix my problem, but I'm weary to uninstall it for fear that I might loose all my applications that I've synced into iTunes as well as my purchases and all the movies and things I've downloaded.
    If anyone has any comments, suggestions, or further questions about my problem, PLEASE say so because this is very urgent and I need all the help I can get.

    Also, I forgot to add that my iTouch is a 1st Gen I believe (I'm sorry, I got it for a Christmas gift, but I'm pretty sure it's a 1st Gen).

    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 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!!!

    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...

  • IPod Touch 4G not showing up in My Computer (Windows 7)

    Hello,
    I'm new to the forums and I don't know whether this is the right place for a Windows user to post a problem. If not, disregard this thread.
    My iPod Touch 4G doesn't always show up in My Computer making video/picture transfer impossible. So far I've gotten the following results:
    1 - iPod Touch 4g shows up as a digital camera with a camera icon. It then can be accessed through My Computer but iTunes won't see it.
    2 - iPod Touch 4g doesn't show up in My Computer at all. iTunes, however, see it just fine.
    3 - iPod Touch 4g shows up in My Computer as iPod with a black iPod icon. It then can be accessed through My Computer and iTunes.
    I've tried updating, reinstalling the driver and plugging the device into a different USB port but so far no luck. This is actually a pretty common problem for Windows users. This is the only device that I have such an issue with.
    I'm on a fresh Windows install and it's up-to-date.

  • My iPod Touch Will Not Be Recognized By My Computer But By Others

    I had my iPod touch on charge last night and then turned everything off. This morning,, I needed to charge my iPod so I plugged it and my laptop wouldn't recognize it at all. In "My Computer" and iTunes, and it won't even charge. I plug it in different USB ports and it still doesn't do anything. I try a different computer and it works fine.

  • Brand new iPod Touch is not being recognized by my computer

    Hello,
    I just bought a brand new iPod Touch. I had iTunes installed since this is a replacement to a very old iPod. When I plugged my new iPod Touch to start the very first sync, iTunes crashed and started giving me a Windows 7 error (999). After many frustrated attempts to reinstall iTunes (and a few blue screens in between), I followed a recommendation in one of the postings to delete all the Apple programs in a certain order. It worked and I was able to reinstall iTunes. The problem now? My USB, which at one point kept asking for the software to install the iPod, won´t recognized it anymore. Period. I´ve rebooted several times and whenever I plug my iPod in any of the four USB ports, absoluletely nothing happens, as if nothing had ever been plugged in. I tested the USB with my blackberry and it recognized it. Please help!! Thanks!

    Ok, I just figured out so I´ll post it here in case someone has the same issue. I turned off my iPod while connected to the computer. Afterwards, the "other" connection showed up again in the device manager but this time it stayed there without disappearing and with the exclamation point on. I then proceed with one of the instructions in this posting to install the driver for the apple mobile which then showed up in the USB section of the hardware (it was never there until now). Bingo! I got my iPod Touch to connect for the first time! But seriously, why should it be so hard???? I'm concerned with the number of postings here. It looks as if Apple is selling the hottest toys but not be the best ones in terms of quality...

  • My ipod touch is not recognizing any charger including computer.  It is only 2 months old

    My Ipod touch 5th generation is not being recognized by any charger or by the computer.  This is only 2 mos old

    See the not-charging topic of:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Have you tried another cable?
    Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.
    BTW, there is not 5G iPod touch. The current one is still the 4G iPod touch

  • My iPod touch does not show up in My computer or in itunes. Windows 8

    I recently bought a Windows 8 computer, when i tried connecting my Ipod touch the sound went off on the ipod saying it was connected but no message saying to sync. On the computer nothing was shown saying anything had connected. I have tried re-installing itunes as well as running it in a windows 7 compatibilty.

    Did you do everything here:
