Nano has Music on it, but ITunes doesn't show it!

Hi,
When I connect my nano to my PC & it appears in ITunes without any problems. But when I actually select the Nano to see what songs I have on it, nothing displays.
ITunes just says theres so much spaced used and so much free. Then when I try and use my nano, theres no longer any songs or playlists or songs etc on it, when there was lastnight. But the space is still taken up & if you look at the nano as a disk the songs are their.
I have restored my IPod in the past and I'm sick of having to do this everytime I plug my nano in to my PC to charge it etc.
(also is there any specific way I should connect my nano to my PC? Nano already turned on 1st or not etc?)
Thank-you in advance for any assitance you can provide.
Cheers

Nice post! Although you do not need to wait for iTunes to check your updated feed. For a quicker response you can ping iTunes to read your rss feed. Simply enter this URL into your address bar:

The red icon with numbers in the iWeb icon on your dock means you have new comments added to your site. The number represents how many new comments there are.

IWeb has published my Podcast - but iTunes doesn't show the updated feed

I created three new Podcast episodes today, which all work fine and are published to .Mac like a dream...
The first one was picked up by iTunes and downloaded as I've subscribed to my own feed. As you do. The last two are not showing on iTunes at all...
In fact I realised on closer inspection that only five of the twelve Podcasts are in iTunes. Any ideas why?
Interestingly, the iWed icon in the application bar has "2" in a red circle in a "you've got two waiting to be published" kinda way. But all the pages are blue and I have published all pages to .Mac. Honest.
I'm no RSS geek, so any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

IPod Nano IS recognized by windows but itunes doesn't...

I have recently bought an ipod nano and i've installed the software and itunes and everything...when i plug the ipod into the usb drive, it IS recognized by the computer but not by Itunes....i cannot transfer my songs onto my ipod and it hasnt asked me for a name for my ipod like it did with my 2nd generation ipod.......can anyone help?

hiya!
okay, we'd better check on the usual suspects.
first have a look inside your "My Computer". is the ipod showing up in there?
if it isn't, see:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes on Windows
if it is, see:
iPod for Windows: Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes

My Nano took a trip thru the washer and dryer and I assume it is destroyed. My wife bought me a new one, but Itunes doesn't recognize it, although my computer does. How do I get pack into my music, I don't want to start all over again?

How do I get Itunes to recognize it. I spent a lot of time recording my old cassetes and don't want to start all over again. I just want to get back to where I was.

Did you already try the troubleshooting here? iPod not appearing in iTunes

If my ipod nano already has music on it but not my account will all my stuff be lost when i sync it to my account

if my ipod nano already has music on it but not on my new account will all my stuff be lost when i sync it to my new accont and would i still be able to add stuff from the old account to my ipod

All your iTunes Store purchases are linked to the account. I do not think you can use two accounts with an iPod*, so you will have to choose one account or the other, and use only the things purchased under that account.
*I've never actually tried, but that's my understanding. You'd get a better answer by posting in the correct forum. Try the iPod forums rather than the Using Apple Support Communities forum.

You might have better luck posting in the iPod Nano forum. You posted in the iPod Touch forum. For an iPod Touch one would start here:

My iPhone5 has music on it but I've unclicked "Sync Music" in iTunes.

My iPhone5 has music on it but I've unclicked "Sync Music" in iTunes. If I do sync music, I get all sorts of duplicates. How to fix?

If your phone was originally synced with another library and you are trying to sync with a new one it will delete the data on the phone. However if you select to just sync your apps and not your mucic then you will be fine.

When I go to plug in my iPhone 5 to my PC it will charge my phone but it doesn't show up that it's connected to my computer or in iTunes. I have tried just about everything that I can find on the internet but nothing is working. Any other suggestions?

If you have carefully follow ALL of the steps in that article, you are using a USB port directly on your computer and not a USB hub (don't use a front port on a tower or desktop either, as they are an internal hub) and you installed iTunes correctly using an Administrator ID and you have tried disabling your antivirus and firewall then there is no hope of it ever working. Look at the tip again, and go through it carefully, not skipping any steps.
Note, BTW, that an iPhone will not show up on a computer, only in iTunes. If there are photos in the Camera Roll then it will appear in Windows as a digital camera only.

My iPod nano needs to be format, but it doesn't format using fat 32. And it says that it is corrupted. What should I do?

As I connect it to itunes, it shows that it needs to be format. When I try to format it (fat32) it doesn't finish. And it says, the ipod appears to be corrupted.

similar to what is happening to me....the difference is, after restoring itunes detect ipod and ask to restore again and again....
I know it may look kinda stupid but: just leave the ipod there for about 2 minutes, that's about the time my itunes is taking to detect my ipod...if it doesn't work, try connecting ur ipod to other computer with itunes (no need to sync, just to check if itunes will recognize) to check if the problem is with the ipod or with the itunes and/or computer.

Windows sees iPod but iTunes doesn't ALSO Windows cannot locate driver

Got my Nano (2d gen) a few days ago and have been stumped since I can't use it. Here's a few details. I'm running Windows 2000 with SP4. In trying to sync I have used both my laptop's USB 1.1 port but also a USB 2.0 card with and without additional power (which can sometimes cause problems). I have tried the 5 R's to no avail.
Here's what's happened so far. Initially when I connected the Nano Windows would look for the appropriate driver. After a minute or so, the computer would lock up and reboot. This happened 5 or 7 times. Very frustrating.
I then tried the 5 R's and started doing some research on my own. I think part of the problem might have been due to Windriver, which I believe controls USB drivers. I messed around with that and eventually got to the point where when I plugged in the Nano, Windows would search for the correct iPod driver. After a minute or so, a window would pop up reporting that Windows couldn't find the driver and did I want to disable this device or ignore the update.
Hey, at least the computer wasn't rebooting.
The strange this is that if I click on the System Tray, under the Unplug/Eject Hardware icon it shows that there is an iPod connected and the Nano will charge. And yet, iTunes doesn't report being connected.
I have searched and searched this forum and the web but to no avail. Are there smarter minds out there that can help me with this problem?
IBM T20 Windows 2000 Nano 2d gen with iTunes 7.02

I went through the steps in the document a day or so ago but it didn't help. I will try one more time, paying close attention to the details.
On a different note, just after I posted my question I attached my Nano and let it look for the appropriate driver. However, this time I pointed it to the WINNT\Systems32\drivers directory and my computer locked up and rebooted.
So I'm thinking there's an underlying problem and I'm just don't want to think about doing a re-install or re-format of my HDD.
There is one thing I can report. I was able to sync on my office computer so the problem's not the Nano.
Will let you know if anything changes. Thanks for the quick response.

I want to restore my phone by connecting my Iphone4 to iTunes in Mac but it doesn't show phone device. What should i do now??????

I don't know why it doesnt connect to pc(Mac pro).
Any solution?

You need to restart the phone in DFU mode and update the software.
To restart the phone in DFU mode press the power and home button simultaneously for like 10 seconds once the phone is switched off release the power button keep holding the home button while you connect to the computer which has Itunes running and then you can restore or update the software, you can download the update and connect after the software has been downloaded if your phone disconnects, And enjoy you new IOS7.

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears.
