My Itunes won't read my 4th gen ipod touch.

i have tried just about everything i know to fix the problem and i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes as well as did a factory reset on my ipod touch. I tried using multiple cords and it reads on my cpu as a storage device.

Can you still play the Music which is not sync?
it could be that you put it in another folder so itunes can't find it an because of this can't sync it.

  • IOS won't update on 4th gen iPod touch??

    This message appears: The iPod software could not be contacted. Make sure your network setting are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later.
    I have a 4th generation iPod touch. I updated my iTunes. And honestly the only thing in the above message that makes sense is to try again later. Well I tried that several times.
    I have iOS 4.2.1 and I know that the fourth generation can get ios 6 right?
    I am not a very techy person. Please if you have hints let me know.
    Thank you!

    Ciould be just an Apple glitch

  • Itunes wont recognize my 4th gen ipod touch but computer will

    iTunes refuses to recognize my 4th gen. iPod touch. Both are up to date with software and ive restarted my computer, ipod, and itunes multiple times and done everything ive found online. the computer recognizes it and says its working properly, but itunes does not put it anywhere in the devices. nor can i find it.

    You need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView to copy photos from photos synced to the iPod to a computer.

  • My 4th gen Ipod touch won't power up but is recognized by itunes and is in recovery mode! What can I do/

    I can't get my 4th gen ipod touch to turn on but itunes see's it and is in recovery mode. I can hear the beep beep when I plug it in to the usb port. I have also charged it for 3 hrs so far but won't fire up. I tried the customery hold the home and power button routine but don't know what else to do. I tried recovery mode but the itunes say's"waiting for the ipod" and I guess cause it's not on it won't recover. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance to all who reply!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do?

    This is really frustrating.  Every time i try to sync my 4th gen ipod touch itunes won't recognise it and the ipod keeps beeping - is there anything I can do? I've tried using different cables. Itunes works fine with my family members ipod's & iphones...

     The best way to manage your music when you have multiple iPods is to change the settings under "Options" so that you manually manage your music instead of it doing an automatic synch each time you connect.  To add only the songs you want, highlight them and then "click and drag" them to your iPod.  This way none of your daughter's music gets added and you're not in danger of deleting your playlist as well.  It will show you how many songs you've added and you can then click on your iPod to verify.  To delete her songs off your iPod now, click on the music tab under your iPod so show everything you have stored.  Find those songs you want to delete, click on them to highlight then go up to the Edit window and click delete. This will erase them off your iPod but be careful when you highlight.  I did that and then had to reload a cd on my boyfriend's, lol. hope this helps

  • Have Macbook Pro & 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded & installed iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says "iTunes" Data too new to be used with this version of iTunes.

    Have a Macbook Pro and a 4th gen iPod Touch. Downloaded and install iOS 4.3.2 yesterday. Upgrade went without a hitch, but now iTunes on My Macbook Pro will not open. I get an error that says --The file "iTunes Library" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes--. I am running iTunes 10.1.  I searched for Updates to my MacBook Pro (running 10.6.7), but comes back saying no updates available. WHAT IS GOING ON??

    Is your computer still authorized in the Store menu in iTunes?
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    When I changed to my new MacBookPro I had to authorize it although I used TimeMachine to transfer my settings and data.
    Did you try to deselect Wi-Fi syncing and enable it again after that?

    Did you already transfer your purchases and manually started a backup?

  • I have a 4th gen. ipod touch.  It has software 4.2.1 and itunes always tells me I need to update to ios 6.  I always click download and install.  After the download is complete, nothing happens.  It doesn't install on its own.  Thanks,

    Hey 34grumpy4u,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPod touch is currently in recovery mode, and needs to be restored. You can restore your iPod with any computer, then transfer your information back to your iPod once you have access to your backup (whether it was made via iCloud or iTunes).

  • My 4th Gen iPod Touch won't open up the apps I've downloaded. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app and it seems to only be a temporary fix. The reset and reboot didn't work either. Help would be appreciated.

    In more specific terms. The apps that came on the iPod like the weather and maps and whatnot have been working flawlessly. It's just when I download an app and then disconnect from wifi it's almost like I'm on a timer until the app stops working. It acts like it wants to open, the screen flashes black then resets to the home pages. I've tried all of the basic fixes, rebooting, reseting, uninstalling then reinstalling. But like in my...long...question, the reinstalling option only seems to be a temporary fix. I just recently downloaded the 5.1.1 udate (I think that's what it was) does that have anything to do with it, or am I just derpy when it comes to iPods?

    Try the other suggestions here:

    Then try a restore.

  • My 4th gen iPod touch has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on

    I have a 4th gen iPod touch. It has been plugged in for hours but it won't charge or turn on. I cannot restore it because it won't show up in iTunes. I have tried pressing and holding the home and/or the power key but that does not work as well. I have tried restarting Apple Mobile Support. I have updated my iTunes. I have tried EVERYTHING but it will not turn on at all. Any suggestions?

    Don't know why you would.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphones/ipads as you like.

  • I have a 4th gen ipod touch.  Since I won't be able to upgrade to 7, should I not update apps?

    I have a 4th gen iPod Touch.  Since I won't be able to upgrade to iOS7, should I avoid updating apps?  The app update notices I am receiving state the updates are to be compatible with iOS7.

    The iPod will prevent you from install apps and app updates that require iOS7. Recently that have been problems with 4G iPod giving a bade indicating that update were available but when you went to the update section of the App Store app no updates were listed. That was due to an error on Apple's parts since the app updates were only compatible with iOS 7.

  • HT1430 My 4th Gen iPod touch will not turn, doesnt charge, and i can't reset in computer because it says it is protected by a passcode, but i cant enter pass code because the screen stays black and won't even light up... What do I do

    My 4th gen iPod Touch has had a blank screen for about 3-4 weeks now, it will not turn on, sync, or charge. iTunes recognizes its plugged up, but i cant reset it because it says its passcode protected, but i cant enter passcode due to screen not lighting up or working. How do i fix this?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • My 4th gen Ipod Touch won't turn on/charge?

    I have the 4th Gen Ipod touch. I was using it after it had been saying 20% battery remaining for awhile. I locked the screen, then I tryed to press the power button again to unlock it but it wouldn't work. I automatically assumed it had died completely so I tried plugging it in to charge. Even after letting it sit for a while it will not charge or turn on. I tried plugging it into a computer to charge as well, but my computer still wouldn't pick up on it. I tried the usual "hold down power button and home button at the same time for a few seconds" thing, but that was useless because my home button barely works. I cannot plug the ipod into a computer to restore it anyway, because my stuff isn't backed up and I am on iOS 4.something (as the original computer i had my iTunes on stopped working, so I havent been able to update it) so I will lose all my photos and music (I didn't purchase all my music from the itunes store). Does anybody have any suggestions? I tried calling Apple but Im out of warranty so they wouldn't help me, and theres only one Apple store in my state (and its nearly 4 hours away) so I'm basically screwed, right?
