Purchased Music on iTouch does not appear in iTunes after IOS4 upgrade.
Subject line says it all. My son purchased a bunch of songs on his iTouch and did not sync these with iTunes. I upgraded the OS today on the Touch, and now he can't find any of the songs he bought on his touch. iTunes says I have no downloads available.
How do I get these purchased songs to download to my iTunes library?I'm guessing that when you connected the shuffle to the second computer, a dialog box came up and asked (in essence) if you wanted iTunes to erase all the music that was currently on the shuffle, and that you said "no!".
However, the shuffle can only be in sync with one computer at a time.

Ipod touch does not appear in itunes 11 after upgrade
I upgraded my mac book pro to Mt. Lion and could still sync to my ipod. Then I upgraded my iphoto and itunes to the latest version. Now my ipod does not appear in itunes. I think I need to upgrade my ipod from 4.2.1 to io5, but cannot do that without being able to sync. What do I do. And do I really need io5 to resolve this problem?

Did you also try another USB cable or USB port?
Is your device plugged in directly, without using a USB hub? -
ITouch does not appear in iTunes - file processes missing
I recently updated to 9.2 about three weeks ago. When I plug in my iTouch, it is recognized by Windows and charges; however, it never appears in iTunes. I have a classic iPod. iTunes will recognize it and sync it. When I looked into the file processes running and what should run according to apple, two files are missing: AppleMobileSync.exe. and SyncServer.exe. Would this be the reason the iTouch will not sync?
I have tried to restart the apple server as posted on the troubleshooting pages. I have done everything but restore my iTouch.
I really want to be able to move new music to my touch. I have upgraded to iTunes 9.2.1 hoping that was a fix. Any ideas?

Purchased itunes music does not appear in itunes since reinstall
Its my wifes ipod, I had a fatal HD crash, had a recovery service retrieve all the data. As I am now rebuilding my pc again I did a fresh install of itunes, then replaced the itunes folder from the new instal on C:drive with the retrieved folder on an external drive. It seemed to populate all the nusic (68 G) but as I a looking through itunes the purchased music playlist is empty and I know She purchased a lot of music.. What do I do? Also should I be sure she does not auto synch before this issue is resolved>
Thanx
DanIf you think all the music is there, you can sync to the ipod.
The purchased playlist is a smart playlist. Since you re-added the music to itunes, it just doesn't show them in the purchase playlist, but they are porbably still in the main itunes library.
You can make 2 smart playlists to find the files
Kind contains purchased (this will show itunes plus content)
Kind contains protected (this will show non-itunes plus content) -
Shuffle does not appear in Itunes
I have connected my Ipod Shuffle to Itunes. When I ejected it and connected it again, it did not appear in Itunes. I restarted my Mac Mini and it did not appear. I disconnected it from the firewire and connected it again and it did not appear ... in the end I disconnected it.. rebooted the mac Mini.. and finally it appeared again. Why did this happen? would there be an easyer way to do this?

After you ejected, disconnected, and connected again, did the Shuffle appear on the desktop in Finder? -
My Ipod 160GB when disconnected is showing without any files, but no room available. It appears in my 'Computer' screen as 'Removable Disk (though the icon is a little iPod). It does not show up in iTunes at all (I have the latest version).
When I right-click the icon on the 'Computer' screen it does run incredibly slowly. I was doing this to consider if I should try formatting it (only NTSF and exFAT formats were showing) but I wasn't certain if that would be a good idea.
I have thus far:
Hard Reset iPod
Verified the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver was installed correctly via Device Manager
Checked the device in 'Computer Management' > 'Disk Management - showing as a RAW file with only format option as exFAT or NTSF
Ran iPod in Diagnostic Boot Mode - IO > HardDrive > HDSMARTData* - stats revealed 'Error' (did this twice to confirm error). Reset iPod from here.
After this it actually came up in iTunes but said it needed to be restored - ran Restore iPod. Error message said 'iPod cannot be restored. Uknown error occoured (1415).
Tried Solution 1 (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539) - Reregistering the .dll files. Was unable to complete step 11 as the iPod did not appear in iTunes.
Verified that Apple Mobile Device Manager was installed.
Restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service.
Checked for third party conflicts - couldn't find any.
Changed the drive letter and restarted the computer.
Put into disk mode - unsure what that achieves.
Downloaded the HP USB with no luck running the program. I believe that Windows Vista doesn't allow formatting drives to FAT32 at all, and even previous editions of Windows wouldn't allow formatting above 32GB so certainly no suitable for me. If I got hold of a mac computer - could I format on that? Or is there a FAT32 Formatter that works for 160GB?
So I am at a bit of a frustrated loss. If you have any suggestions or know what I should do - I am all ears or eyes as it were. I will be on standby to give you more information if required.
Thanks,

My iPod is not appearing in iTunes or explorer. Only when I go to hardware manager windows admits that there is something that is not installed properly. But when I start the hardware manager and put in the CD, as required by the hardware assistant it says: Hardware couldn’t be installed.
So it is not even possible to reset my iPod, because is not recognized by the iPod Updater. I had to go to another computer to reset the iPod. After that my computer is still not recognizing it. So I installed the latest version of iTunes and Updater, but it doesn’t help. I installed also the latest drivers for my computer, but it did not work. Running the iPod in disc mode doesn’t change anything, too.
The iPod is not listed under disc management so I can’t change the Drive from E to G.
I tried the inactivation of all Microsoft-services according to the protocol from the apple web page, but it did not work, even after installing the latest version of iTunes.
I've read the entire troubleshooting pages on how to fix it.
The message on the iPod mini display is always the same when I connect it: “do not disconnect” and after about 3 seconds “OK to disconnect”. But the iPod is never listed in windows explorer or iTunes. I also reseted it, when it was connected to the computer.
I completely run out ideas and I am about to send it to service.
Can anyone help?

Ipod Touch not appearing in Itunes using Windows 7
If your Itouch doesn't appear in Itunes try doing this:
The problem is, for some reason, iTunes won’t install the Apple Mobile Device software or service. Even if you extract out the AMDS installation files, it still fails. The SOLUTION is to take the software and service from Vista for AMDS and manually install it. Then, it will work!
First of all, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed. You can download it from here. These instructions will NOT work for iTunes 8 or 9 anymore. If you’re unsure, just uninstall iTunes then re-install with the latest files. If you want to keep iTunes 9 and don’t want to upgrade to iTunes 9, let me know in the comments and I can get the files to you…I still have them.
Next, you need to manually copy the Mobile Device Support directory from a working Vista machine to your Windows 7 computer
Now, we need to install the correct driver for your iPhone / iTouch. Windows 7 incorrectly identifies the device as a digital camera. To fix this:
- Plug in your iPhone / iTouch (don’t have iTunes loaded at this time)
- Go to Device Manager (Click Start, right-click Computer, then click Properties. In the window that appears choose “Device Manager” on the left)
- Scroll down and find “Apple iPod” or “Apple iPhone” or “Apple iTouch”. It will likely be under the “Portable Devices” category.IMPORTANT NOTE: If your device is already listed under “Universal serial Bus Controllers” and not Portable Devices, you can skip these steps and go to Step 7.
- Right-click the Apple device and choose “Update Driver Software…”
- Choose “Browse my computer for driver software” in the window that appears
- It will ask you for a location; you want to Browse to this folder (location is the same in 32 and 64 bit Windows):
32-bit and 64-bit: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
– Click Next
- It should find the driver for your device; let it install that driver
Once you complete these steps, reboot your computer. Once you reboot everything should work exactly as expected!If your Itouch doesn't appear in Itunes try doing this:

Music does not appear in iTunes after consolidation and xfer to E drive
I followed the instructions listed on the web site for xfer of the music to an external hard drive. After I did the consolidate portion, the music did not show/appear in the e drive folder created for the music. The music does not show in iTunes now. I have not deleted anything since I can't see music in the e drive folder.
I am currently copying the music from the older folder to the newer folder to see if this helps.
Where does the consolidated music go?
Can it be shown in iTunes at all now that it has been consolidated?
Will pod sync now since music does not appear in iTunes?
Any help or information would really be appreciated.
Thanks!

Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library. -
