My iPod touch won't recognize in itunes..

I have Version 4.1 (it's an older iPod touch). Whenever I plug in my iPod to the computer, it doesn't even pop up in the device manager list in iTunes.
   Any ideas?

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

  • Music Plays on iPod Touch won't update to iTunes 10.5

    number of music plays on ipod touch won't update to itunes 10.5

    Unfortunately, I do not have a solution to this problem; however, I am experiencing the same thing. However, my iPod Touch is new. It will not play any of the DRM-protected content that I purchased previously; however, it will allow me to purchase content with my Apple account, so it is certainly "authorized," as it were. I guess I will try to reset it, but I doubt it will work.

  • New ipod touch won't connect, shows itunes and usb icons

    My son just got a new ipod touch for his birthday. I have the latest version of itunes, and I have spent hours scouring the internet looking for a solution. Whether the thing is plugged into the computer or not, all it will do is show the usb cable icon and the itunes icon. When I plug it into the computer, my computer makes the noise that indicates that a device has plugged in, the ipod beeps one beep, and I get an error message from itunes that says that a rented movie from the ipod cannot be imported into itunes. Other than that, the computer, including itunes, doesn't acknowledge the existence of the ipod, not in the device manager, in itunes, in the itunes diagnostics tests, or anywhere else. In addition, the battery won't charge.
    Also, I noticed that I do not have anything called "Apple Mobile Device Service," although I do have something called "Bonjour service." Are these the same thing or could this be the problem. Please HELP!

  • IPod Touch Won't Recognize USB Cables

    My 4th gen iPod Touch no longer recognizes my USB cables. They won't work through my computers and they won't work through a wall charger. My iPod charges fine through my JBL Sound Stage, it's just a problem with the cables. If I plug either cable into my iPod, nothing happens. No beeps, no messages, no charging screen, nothing.
    I think I can pinpoint the problem until shortly after I purchased a spare cable, but that may very well be a coincidence. I've been using a third party wall charger, so that could be an issue as well- but it has never been a problem until after I purchased the new cable (can cables "burn out"?). I'd reset my iPod, but I need a cable to do that. So far I've just been charging via my JBL Sound Stage and syncing over WiFi.

    If you have tried multiple computers and multiple USB sync cables, that definitely points to a hardware issue with your iPod Touch.  Have you check the dock connector port for any signs of damage or debris that could be blocking or preventing the connection?  Take a can of compressed air and trying blowing it out and using a Q-tip or similar to clean the contacts.
    You'll likely need to have the iPod serviced or replaced.  If still under warranty, take it into your local Apple store and see what they can do for you.

  • Ipod touch won't sync with itunes, only iphoto after snow leopard update upgrade

    Have just put snow leopard onto my mac book 4.1. Can't get my ipod touch 5.1.1 to sync with itunes. It syncs with iphoto every time, but no device comes up in itunes or in finder. I have the latest software updates on both mac & touch. Any ideas?

  • My Ipod touch won't connect to iTunes/Computer!

    This problem has being going on for a month or so now! Firstly, iTunes kept freezing whenever I connected my iPod to my computer which became quite annoying. And recently it's just stopped connecting altogether, no beeping noise, no charging, no usb driver listed, no freezing- nothing. However, whenever I turn my iPod off and connect it, my iPod turns on? I've tried reinstalling iTunes many times, as well as all the other software but nothing seems to work. I've also tried reinstalling the usb driver, which did eventually work but then caused my iTunes to freeze. I then disconnected my iPod to find that it wouldn't connect again, and the usb doesn't show up still. My computer is running on Windows Vista, and my iPod is an iPod touch 4th gen. Can anyone help me!? I really don't want to reset my iPod as I'd loose everything on it and I've owned it for quite a few years

  • My iPod Touch won't connect to iTunes or my computer, and the "on this iPod" tab is gone out of the blue. I can't put any more music onto my iPod, and I can't erase anything off of it either! What can I do?

    My iPod Touch is a 6.1.6
    I got it as a gift a couple years ago, so I'm not sure exactly what generation it is. My iPod Touch will not connect to iTunes or my computer, and the "on this iPod" tab is also gone. I can't put anything new onto it and I can't take anything old off of it! This just happened recently as well, as it was working fine up until a couple months or so ago. What can I do?

    Is your problem that you do not see your iPod in iTunes? If that is the case try these:

    Also, make sure you update to the latest iTunes and Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is now up to 10.6.5 and you said you only have 10.6.3.
