My iTouch4 no longer shows up under Devices in i-Tunes, nor will it sync?

My iTouch 4 no longer shows up in iTunes as a device, nor does it sync, or create updates. Help?

Disconnecting everything and restarting your iPod and computer usually does the trick. Then reconnect everything. This steps should work.

  • HT1386 iphone and ipad no longer show up as devices in itunes

    my ipad and my i phone no longer show up as devices in I tunes. I have so far shut down and restarted the PC, ipad, iphone, uninstalled and reinstalled the itunes program, done the ''reset all" in settings on my ipad, changed USB ports. Any suggestions?

    On your computer, try going into your control panel, add/remove programs and uninstall iTUnes, apple mobile device service, apple application support. THen redownload and reinstall iTunes and see if it works.

  • IPod Touch no longer showing up under My Computer

    My iPod Touch is no longer showing in the device list under My Computer and as such can't access it to get my photos off it.
    It works in iTunes just fine, syncs fine, etc.
    If I go to Devices and Printers, it used to be listed under the Devices category as iPod, but now shows under the Unspecified category as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver, so basically a generic device.
    I have no devices with exclamation points or any other trouble signs under Device Manager.
    Help?

    Well, I am not entirely sure what exactly happened but after trying numerous times to reinstall the drivers and getting all sorts of error messages, I finally got Windows 7 to cooperate. The iPod Touch now shows up and is being detected as a digital camera under Devices, and under Computer it is showing up under Portable Devices. If I double-click on it I can view my pictures, transfer them, delete them, etc.

  • TS4062 I can't sync music on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. Suggestions?

    I can't sync music already on my computer to my ipod touch; the ipod shows up under Devices in itunes but does not show buttons (Summary etc.) when I click on it. I've read through all the Help tutorials but none of them say what to do if the sync options don't pop up when you highlight the device.  I've already spent way too much time trying to figure this out and it's driving me crazy!  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    This is correct.  It will not show in finder.  It is not an external storage device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  Open itunes connect ipod, do not sync, click File>Transfer Purchases

    Hey corky60,
    I'd go ahead and give the following troubleshooting steps a shot:
    1. Try the iPod troubleshooting assistant:
    2. Restart the iPod Service
    3. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service
    4. Empty your Temp directory and restart
    5. Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed
    6. Change your iPod's drive letter
    7. Remove and reinstall iTunes
    8. Disable conflicting System Services and Startup Items
    9. Update, Reconfigure, Disable, or Remove Security Software
    10. Deleting damaged or incorrect registry keys
    You can read more about each step in detail in this article:

    I'd start at the top and work through the steps until iTunes recognizes your iPod nano.

  • IPod Touch 2nd generation won't turn on and won't show up under Devices on my iTunes.

    I was trying to restore my iPod touch because it was locking itself and flashing. When I tried to restore it, the iPod turned itself off completely and won't turn back on. I've tried pressing the lock button and the home button at the same time, and I can't do anything from my computer because my iPod isn't showing up under Devices or Computer. If I put it in the USB port it opens iTunes, but isn't showing that it's plugged in. I have used different USB cords, switched USB ports, and tried charging the iPod, but it still won't turn on. Please help!

    You should get it serviced, see your service options here:
    6. My iPod is not eligible for warranty service. What are my service options?
    Apple offers two options for iPods that are not eligible for warranty service (see below). You will need to provide credit card details for these services. If you do not have a credit card, please take your iPod to your local Apple Retail Store.
    iPod Out-of-Warranty Battery Replacement Program: If your iPod requires service only because the battery's ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, you can have the battery replaced for a service fee by using the Online Service Assistant or at your local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.
    For more details, please refer to the iPod Out-of-Warranty Battery Replacement Program Frequently Asked Questions.
    Out-of-Warranty Service: If your iPod requires service for any other hardware failure that is determined by Apple to be repairable, Apple will service your iPod for the Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fee.
    If you want to set up your iPod for the Out-of-warranty service, we recommend that you take your iPod to a local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.
    Click here for pricing.
    If Apple determines that an iPod is not repairable, for example, if it has failed due catastrophic damage or the iPod has been disassembled into multiple pieces, then Out-of-Warranty Service is not available and the iPod will be returned. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

  • Why is Messages no longer showing up under my iCloud account in the "Internet Accounts" window?

    Why is Messages no longer showing up under my iCloud account in the "Internet Accounts" window?  I recently deleted it and added it back, but then Messages went away.  On my iPhone, it shows me logged in under my iCloud account and my cell phone number is synced with that iCloud account.  Yet, on my Mac it isn't showing up.
    I've already tried removing and adding the iCloud back several times.

    The Messages app is supposed to grab the information from the "Internet Accounts." Messages has always included the ability to separately add Google, Yahoo, AOL, or other messages accounts; but, it has always grabbed the iCloud account information from the "Internet Accounts" section. Except for now, when the Messages option has disappeared from the iCloud account under "Internet Accounts."

  • ATV not showing up under devices in iTunes

    I have synced this ATV with this Macbook in the past.
    I am able to play music from my Macbook thru my ATV by selecting the ATV speakers instead of the Macbook's speakers.
    I can play movie trailers on the ATV.
    In iTunes>Preferences>ATV my ATV shows up and says it is syncing
    I have updated my ATV and iTunes software.
    However, it does not show as syncing on the home screen of iTunes and does not show up under devices on the left side. Any ideas?

  • Updated iTunes and iPod software  iPod not showing up under devices in iTunes

    Updated software since computer said there were updates.  Now I'm having trouble with iPod not showing up under devices.  Have gone through all the steps under troubleshooting.  Nothing helped.  Had this same problem periodically in the past, as well.  Itunes also says I have an app I reinstalled today due to it not working properly, and it won't synch with iPod.  (earlier today, iPod was showing up and synching properly, but this app wasn't getting downloaded to the iPod.  Just shows up in iTunes.  HAve tried restarting computer, iTunes and iPod, but no luck.

    Thank you but I have tried this and it still does not show up.  I even tried to delete itunes and reload it but the computer says that it is not able to delete itunes.
