My Mac won't recognize iPod nanos but it does recognize an iPod touch and an iPad?

So I tried troubleshooting didn't work the iPod nanos, tried differentt cords and USB ports and ended with the same result, iPad and iPod touch are able to connect but the iPod nanos don't even get recognize by the desktop. It just seems as if the iPod nanos are just charging and I'm trying to avoid uninstalling iTunes like the plague. Someone help please??

I'm having the same issues with my brand new iphone 5.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

  • I have an iPod touch and an iPad on the same apple account.  If I purchase the same album on both devices without syncing will I be charged twice?

    Yes. You're supposed to move it to the second device from the computer and not redownload it from the iTunes Store.

  • HT1351 My iPod Touch and my iPad will not sync with my laptop in iTunes. Apple say to open iTunes and click on preferences. I can't find preferences, where are they?

  • When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad?

    When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad? Really wish Siri would be expanded to other high end Apple devises like the iPod Touch 4th generation and the new iPad instead of it just being iPhone 4S exclusive. That's such a cool feature!

    Well.. Me and one of my good friends both have iPod Touch 4th gen 32gb's and my friend read on the Technobuffalo website that IOS 5.1 was suppose to come with Siri for the iPod touch and probably the iPad and I updated my iPod 4th gen to IOS 5.1 and it still doesn't have Siri !

  • Can I sync an ipod touch and an ipad separately to the same laptop

    I have an ipod touch and an ipad. Can I sync them to my computer so that each remains independant of the other. When I first attached the ipad to my computer the option to start as a new ipad or sync from my ipod's content were available. I did neither and just ejected the ipad. I guess my question is: if I choose to start as a new ipad will it wipe out the data from my ipod touch or will it create a new backup?

    I have three iDevices that I sync to one iTunes library and each device has its own unique content.
    If you are Windows - launch iTunes and go to Edit>Prefernces>Devices. Check the box at the bottom that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones, etc. ... From syncing automatically, click ok. Quit iTunes.
    Connect either of your devices to your computer and launch iTunes again. Click on the device name on the left side under the devices heading, now go into each and every tab of iTunes and select the content that you want to sync to that particular device. When you are done, click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes. iTunes will remember what you selected for that device the next time that you sync,
    Eject your device, connect the other one and do the same thing. If you want -- turn auto sync back on using the procedure outlined above.

  • I own a ipod touch and a ipad but i lost my ipod touch and downloaded the find iphone app on my ipad and when i opened the app my ipod touch wasnt even listed on it as one of my products but i use the same apple id for all of my products??!! Please Help

  • I have both an ipod touch and an ipad, what are some cool feauture/apps that I should use? Can I use my ipod touch to control my ipad playing itunes?

    I just got the new ipod touch and I have an iPad 2, I am just look for some opinions and recommendations as to what apps, or cool features I can use between the two. Thanks.

    Your problem is that everyone seems to be using the same iTunes store account (ID).  That's fine when a family wants to share purchased items, but that's the rub - everyone is tapping into the same account, so they can download whatever is available.
    As for icloud accounts, icloud is designed for single user use.  If multiple users share the same icloud account then all their devices will be synced together - same emails, same contacts and calendars, same notes, etc.  There is no privacy or division of data in this scenario.  The usual advice is for everyone to have their own ID for icloud, and share the family ID for iTunes store.

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • I have an ipod touch and an ipad.   I just bought fifa 12 in ipad for 99cents but i can't download it for free in my ipod with the same apple id

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation and an ipad.  Today i bought fifa 12 which was on sale for a dollar on my ipad. But i want to download the game in my ipod touch but in the app store it says $1 instead of INSTALL.  i used the same apple id!

    you could jump on your comp and try and install it through itunes onto your ipod, if it works great but if it doesnt im sorry ill have to agree with the guys above me , youll have to get another copy off apple thats designed for your ipod

  • I have a new iPod touch and an iPad all my videos work on the iPod, but not on the iPad.  What am I doing wrong when I syn with iTunes ?

    iPad 2 does not show videos.  I just get a black screen when I hit the video app.  The videos show as being loaded when connected to iTunes. 

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • How do i have an ipod touch and an ipad sync to the same pc?

    how do i have an ipad and an ipod touch sync on the same computer but they have different apps on them?
    i knopw it is possible but i just dont no how to do it. as my ipod touch is only 8gb and my ipad is 16gb so everything off the ipad is making the ipod slow as it has only 8gb memory,
    thanks,

    When you connect each device and select them on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, then on the right-hand side you can select what to sync to that device e.g. which apps via the Apps tab, music via the Music tab etc. Those selections for each device should be remembered each time you re-connect the device, so you shouldn't have to go through the selection process each time (unless you want to change what you want to sync).
