Nano 4th Genoration doesnt apper in My Computer or iTunes- still charges
My iPod 8gb 4th Genoration Nano wont sync. It doesnt appeer in My Computer and iTunes but it still charges. When it works, it says 'iPod cant sync' or if i try and restore it it says 'iPod cant restore'. Some times it says 'This USB device is not reconised'. Sometimes it works. I have tried to restore it and restart it.
PLEASE HELP!
Hello Clare,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Are you plugging it into a USB port directly on your PC? Have you tried using a different USB Connector cable? Are these 2.0 USB ports?
First I would make sure your USB drivers are up to date by following the instructions provided in this Apple support document.

my ipod suffle 4th gen doesnt appear on my computor or itunes?
Hey there micmitzee,
It sounds like your iPod Shuffle is not being seen in either Windows or in iTunes. I would use the following article to help troubleshoot that named:
iPod not recognized in My Computer and in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1369
Here is step one to get you started, but there are additional troubleshooting steps within, if needed:
1. Start with the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant
If you haven't already done so, use the iPod Troubleshooting Assistant that applies to your iPod. This will often solve your issue.
If you're still experiencing the issue after going through each of the steps in the assistant, continue with the steps below in this article. The most likely solutions are listed below (for both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) iPod connections). Check each section starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping your iPod from appearing.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

itunes STILL charged my card, but then told me the computer I was using couldn't be authorized. OK, fine...but, now, how and where do I go to get my downloaded music?
I'm sorry, but your data is gone & there is no way to get it back.

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? -
My ipod nano 6th generation is not showing up when I plug it into the computer. I have reset it and restarted the computer, I also have downloaded latest itunes. My other ipod nano shows up so I know its not the cord or computer. It is not showing up in itunes either.
That seems to be a clear indication of an issue with your iPod and not your PC or USB cable. Have you tried resetting the Nano with it still connected to your PC?

My iPod nano 4th generation won't download newer podcasts from iTunes
my ipod nano 4th generation won't download newer podcasts from itunes
If you use automatic syncing, select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Podcasts there. This is the Podcasts tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync podcasts.
Sync Podcasts is checkmarked for automatic syncing. Below that, set up the Podcasts tab to sync podcasts as desired. For example, you can set it to Automatically include all unplayed episodes of selected podcasts. The "all unplayed" option gets new podcasts episodes to sync automatically. Select the podcasts below.
When you click Apply, your selection on the Podcasts tab (and the other tabs... Music, Books, etc.) sync to the iPod. If the iPod was NOT previously set to use automatic syncing, its existing content is replaced. -
I'm trying to authorize my new mac in iTunes, but it keeps telling me i need to remove one authorization from another computer.
I removed the authorization from my old laptop - but it STILL tells me i need to remove one authorization before my new mac can be authorized!! I even removed iTunes on the old computer, but it still doesn't work! What do I do?? I want the music from my iMac to be on my MacBook as well!Once a year, you can also perform a step called "deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID". It will clear all 5 authorizations so you can reauthorize the one you want.
Follow the procedure here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420 -
I've only sync my itouch to 1 computer, however I reformat my computer now and then and I've noticed when I've connect my itouch to the computer it's says I've already authorised 2 computers for my account with apple...So does itune recognise my computer as a whole new computer? If so how do I fix this promblem the next time I reformat my computer?? What happens when I've reached my limit of 5 computers?
As a new or different computer. Before paying one of the regular Microsoft taxes - reformatting your computer's hard drive and re-installing Windows and all software, you should de-authorize your computer with iTunes first.
When the 5 computer limit is reached and some of the authorized computers are not accessible, you can de-authorize all from the current computer being used followed by re-authorizing the existing computer or computers. -

Ipod nano 6th generation isn't recognized by computer or iTunes
computer doesn't recognize ipod nano 6th generation
This came from another thread, but worked for me. Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62. Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update). Reboot, and reinstall iTunes. It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano. Good luck.

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
