  • ITunes won't recognize my iPod Touch 2G

    I bought a used iPod Touch 2G. Everthing seems to be working with the iPod but my iTunes V11.1.5.5 won't recognize it when I plug it in. I am using a laptop with Windows 8. In File Explorer it shows 'Apple iPod' under 'This PC'. I have gone to Services under Computer Management and restarted the Apple Mobile Device to no avail. Drivers are up to date.
    Thank you for the help

  • ITunes won't recognize my iPod touch after a failed update--my iPod is stuck on the "plug into itunes" screen

    Yesterday, I had bought myself an ipod touch and it was working just fine until today when I went along with an itunes prompt to update my ipod.  It failed to update and now won't recognize it, I checked to see if it was recognized by my computer--and it is, but a thing pops up that says "access denied" whenever I try to click on it.  The screen on my ipod is stuck wanting me to connect to itunes.

    You may need to try this More than Once...
    Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
    But... if the Device has been Modified... this will Not necessarily work

  • Itunes won't recognize my ipod touch

    i've recently bought a new laptop with windows 7 64-bit. when I installed the itunes for 64bit to my computer and tried to synchronize it with my ipod, nothing appeared
    I figure it out that this computer somehow recognize my ipod as a digital camera.
    so i surfed throught the web to find the solution for this another itunes error
    i figured out that going into device manager and updating the apple ipod will fix this problem.
    so i did following: right-click 'apple ipod', -> click 'browse my computer for driver software', -> click 'let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer' -> click 'have disk' (in the model box, it says "MTP USB device"), and then it told me to insert the disk, so i browse through my computer and found  "usbaapl64" in inf format which is what i need, so i clicked open then ok, but this thing appears that says "the folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with windows for x64-based systems."
    im literally panicing.
    i tried reinstalling the itunes, repairing it put it doesnt do anything.
    i know i downloaded the itunes for 64bit users and that i opened usbaapl file with '64' at the end.
    please help me, i really need to synchronize my ipod

  • IPod touch is stuck on "connect to iTunes" but iTunes won't recognize my iPod touch

    So I was trying to update my iPod touch and left the room, thinking I had plenty of time to get stuff done while I waited. When I returned there was a warning saying that my iPod touch couldn't be updated and my iPod screen was stuck on the "connect to iTunes". I tried reconnecting and iTunes will not recognize it. I've tried restarting my computer and my iPod and I've tried reinstalling iTunes and restoring my iPod, but nothing is working. Any suggestions?

    - Try placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then restoring
    - Next try DFU mode.

  • ITunes won't recognize new iPod touch

    Last night I purchased a new iPod touch. When I try to connect it to iTunes; I get the following message:"This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again."
    I have uninstalled (removed) my current version to iTunes andinstalled the latest version of iTune and still get the same message.
    Any ideas?

    ok i figured it out.. not what was wrong but what to do.. you have to restore your system without having the iPod connect of course.. then uninstall itunes and quicktime then delete every trace of them from your computer. (once you reinstall iTunes you will get back everything you had) then once you restart your computer reinstall itunes and restart your computer again. now plug ur iPod Touch in the computer and it will work then.
    same thing happened to mine.. it took a while to figure it out but i got it...
    you have to uninstall them then delete it from program files... now it works perfectly

  • Computer AND iTunes don't recognize my iPod touch.  Comp thinks it is a camera.  iTunes won't bring up devices at all.  I've already uninstalled iTunes and QT and reinstalled after problem that happened when I updated iTunes... getting beyond P/Oed!!!

    Computer AND iTunes don't recognize my iPod touch.  Comp thinks it is a camera or something.  iTunes won't bring up devices at all.  I've already uninstalled iTunes and QT and reinstalled after problem that happened when I updated iTunes - updated iTunes completely demolished my computer's ability to recognize the sound card and computer had NO sound at all.  I had to uninstall iTunes, QT, AND my sound card and reinstall them all.  Sound worked fine, but now I can't sync my iPod.  Computer recognizes that "something" is hooked up (thinks it might possibly be a camera) and I get that "open with" window.  In "my computer" it shows that there is an "iPod" connected, but it is pictured as a camera.  In iTunes my username is no longer appearing (although account info is there) and NO devices whatsoever get listed.  There is nothing wrong with my USB ports or cable.  And of course Apple won't help anyone unless you pay them to. ... I am getting beyond P/Oed!!!  You pay hundreds for a product and all you get are headaches with their stupid bug infested software and no support at all.
    Can anyone out there help me clean up this unbelievable mess Apple and iTunes has created in my computer?
    Thank you.

    After three completely wasted days trying to figure all of this out I finally got it fixed - on my own - by reading dozens and dozens of rogue posts in indie forums from people that refuse to dish out money to have a company TRY and advise possible fixes on their own glitches.
    (here's a novel idea - fix the glitches Apple.  Or - don't send out updates filled with bugs in the first place)
    Everything (several applications) had to be uninstalled in a very specific order and then restarted , then it all had to be verified with manual deletions of leftovers, and emptying the recycle bin, then another restart, then iT had to be reinstalled again and the system restarted again, and two more update downloads. Holy!!!
    I love my little iPod touch, but I honestly must say, when this kind of thing happens (and it has several times now when I try to deal with iTunes or Apple), it makes me want to flush it down the toilet.
