My older iPod is not recognized by cars with a newer iPod interface

And my new iPod Classic is not recognized by cars with the older interface.
I purchased a new iPod when I realized my new car wouldn't wouldn't recognize my older iPod. Now I find my two older cars won't recognize the new device. Is there an interface cable adapter out there anywhere?

The Jaguar there is nothing you can do, and the new interface from the dealer are not compatible
For the BMW, you have to find out what brand interface was installed in the vehicle
can be dension or original BMW in the x5, if dension you can get something call
Scosche passPORT if BMW brand you can get a new cable from Bmw with the usb and dual power supply,
In the Mini if DIce brand you will need a new cable or new iPod interface, now they have a usb plug to do updates in case iPhone 5 is release in the future or any other updates from iTunes

I lost my ipod, can I use my old account with my new ipod?

Yes. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync with one computer, iTunes library, or account. Simple connect it and sync it as you wish.

It sounds like your iPod classic is recognized and appearing in Windows, but not iTunes.

reinstalled my windows operating system and decided to put on windows 8. After loading all of my music back into a freshly installed itunes, my 4th gen ipod is not recognized by itunes. My 1st gen ipod nano works with no problem. I can eliminate any problems with the cable and connection.
I've stopped and started the service, and also have performed cold reboots.
Nothing seems to have helped the situation.
Help!

I would start with

Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?
The iPod Classic uses different drivers than the Nano

IPod is not recognized in ITunes after upgrade to 7.3.1

Please help. I upgraded ITunes to the 7.3.1 version and now my IPod is not recognized in my ITunes. The USB port is working since my IPod recharged when I plugged it into the computer. I uninstalled & then reinstalled ITunes, but, my IPod is still not recognized by ITunes or my computer. I cannot find it listed in "my computer" files.
Any suggestions as to what happened? Thanks.

Your post solved the same problem for me. Thank you so much! And thanks to JaketheSnake for starting this thread. iTunes used to start up automatically whenever I connected my iPod Touch, but a couple of months ago it quit doing that. I didn't think much of it as I just clicked on iTunes in the dock and opened it and went on my merry way. I just figured something in the last iTunes update changed it's behavior. But lately I noticed that my iPod Touch would be in the source list while it was syncing and then it would sometimes just disappear. I was too lazy to start a thread, I guess, because I just thought someone would tell me to "restore" my iPT and I had gotten used to my little "work arounds". But now it's fixed, thanks to both of you.

My ipod is not recognized by itunes. Menus missing in itunes.

After I updated my ipod and my itunes, now the ipod is not recognized in itunes. I went through all the recommended steps; starting and stopping various programs on my control panel, turning ipod on and off, checking cables - everything short of standing on my head. In the process of all that, I realized that the menu/task bar on the upper left side of the itunes page was gone. It wasn't there when I started this odyssey and it still isn't there.. I uninstalled and installed itunes again. I have Windows 8. Still no menu and still not recognizing the ipod. My ipod is 32gb touch screen. Probably 3 years old or so. Was working fine before the updates......
Thanks!!!

Hi All,
I tried to download the update and iTunes doesn't work at all! It won't even open. I have tried all of the steps above but still no joy.
Any help would be much appreciated as I have been on this for one week already.
Close to my wits end and moving back to a Sony and trying Android for the very first time.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Darren

Hi braddyloopy,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you need to uninstall and reinstall iTunes, your music files should not be erased or affected in any way. It is always a good idea to back up your data before making any changes to your computer, though.
If you'd like to locate your music, this article explains how to find the files:
Where are my iTunes files located?

When you reinstall iTunes, I'd recommend using the method in this article to make sure it's reinstalled completely:

Hello Amber,
I would be concerned too if my iPod was not recognized by iTunes. I found a couple of articles that might help with this.
If you don't see your iPod in the My Computer or Computer section of Windows, follow the steps in this article:
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
If Windows recognizes your iPod but iTunes does not, follow the steps in this article:

IPod classic not recognized by mac or itunes.... but otherwise works fine.

I'm wondering if there is any way I can save my music. I had to reformat my macbook due to corruption of whole disk encryption. My only copy of my music library was on the iPod itself. I was able to restore about 2/3 of my collection from the iPod to the mac. However, at one point the computer became nonresponsive while the iPod was mounted. Had to force a reboot. The iPod was not recognized after that. I connect it to my mac, it says "connected", but iTunes doesnt recognize this, and it doesnt appear on the desktop.
It works fine. All the music and movies, etc., are there, as well as other data I stored on it (which I also want to get back) (judging from free space indicator), but I can't mount it.
I've done everything traditionally recommended.
-Five Rs, numerous times
-Tried with different macs, 10.5.8, 10.6.1, different cables
-Started iPod in disk mode
-Ran all the diagnostics, they're all fine
-Played with iTunes helper
-Reinstalled iTunes
-Tried on completely different macintosh, same problem
For some reason this thing really doesnt want to mount, but when I use the iPod it's clear all the data is right there on it.
Will I have to bust open the iPod and take out the hard drive, and mount it in another enclosure to get my data back? That's the only thing I can think of at this point. Any other ideas?
Thanks-

it looks like everything is fine, except it can't find the ipod... why?
when I plug in a thumb drive, it recognizes that, why not the ipod?
