New Apple id not being recognised by iTunes

I have changed my Apple Id because I have changed my email address. On my ipad, all is well and the new id is accepted and established. However on my Windows desktop, the id is not accepted by iTunes ie when I try to sign in,
it displays the old id and when I change it and put in the password it just changes the id back to the old one. Result - I can't sign in. Help!

Have you logged out of your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > Sign Out menu option - that should then change to a Sign In option, and logging back in should 'refresh' the account on it

New Ipod Touch not being recognised by itunes

Hi, can someone please help!
I purchased a new iPod touch (the one with the camera )the other day and yet so far iTunes nor my computer has recognized it.
I have tried many things:
Updating itunes
Uninstalling and reinstalling itunes
Unblocking itunes related software in my firewall
Trying different USB ports
Turning ipod off and on in different ways
Restarting computer
Using different usb cords
Nothing has worked so far! My computer meets the requirements i think. Its a windows professional with a service pack 3 and it has usb 2.0 ports. I have a working itunes account and store and i have itunes version 10.1. My ipod has full charge also
My computer makes the noise when something is plugged in, yet my ipod is not appearing under devices on itunes. My old nano is being picked up fine yet my new ipod touch isnt!
I dont know whether i should return to the store i purchased it at or if it is a computer malfunction thats the probelm.
Please please help! I've reached a dead end!

Try it on another computer.

Problem with Apple TV not being recognised in iTunes

Hi all,
Trying to fix a situation for a family member. I've seen a lot of similar threads here but nothing that solves my problem.
The setup is as follows:
- ATV2 connecting using wifi running latest update
- windows XP desktop running latest iTunes (10.4)
- router is supplied by broadband provider (Rogers)
Initially nothing worked at all. I found two key problems firstly the iTunes account was disabled and secondly we had a whole host of firewalls issues.
These both appear to be resolved and the ATV can happily connect to the iTunes account and stream music video and photos.
The problem is that the ATV won't appear in iTunes. When the ATV is connected there is no "Apple TV" tab in the preferences settings (which their should be) and the ATV won't appear under the devices section either.
If I try to quit iTunes it warns me that an Apple TV is connected but even then it wont appear anywhere.
This happens with the firewalls completely disabled and after many, many reboots of everything.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The Apple TV 2 doesn't appear either under devices or in the preferences, only the Apple TV 1 did that.
The only place you'll see it in iTunes is under the list of Airplay devices.

My ipad (mini) and ipod are not being recognised by itunes?

When connecting both my ipad(mini) and ipod(7th gen) they are not being recognised by itunes. I last connected just over a month ago and everything was fine. When I last connected I also connected my old ipod(3rd gen) to add new playlists beforing giving to someone else. When I first plugged in I got a message saying that the cable was not Apple authorised - both my cables are cables supplied with my ipod/ipad so came from Apple? When I run diagnostics it says
"Most recent devices not currently connected, - iPod Nano (3rd Gen) and iPad Mini running firmware 6.1.3" This is the first time I have tried to connect since updated my iPad with IOS7? Please help I wanted to put Christmas playlists on both devices.....!

Iphone is not being recognised on itunes to sync?

Hi, I have connected my iphone to my computer but it is not being recognised on itunes?can u help?

I just replaced my 3GS with an iPhone 4 yesterday, and the new phone will not sync with iTunes. It pops up with the following error message whenever I hook it up:
"The iPhone "iPhone" cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
I just got this phone from AT&T, and there are no updates available for either my computer or my phone, so they have to have the newest iTunes.
Also, whenever I plug it in, the new phone does not appear under the "devices" tab on the left like my old one does.
Thanks in advance for whatever advice you can give me.

Ipod touch 6.1.3 not being recognised by iTunes 10.7

Just got a secondhand iPod Touch. It is on 6.1.3 and I have iTunes 10.7 running on my iMac 10.6.8. As far as I can see 6.1.3 is supported on iTunes 10.7. I tried the Apple trouble-shooting page but to be honest it wasn't that helpful.
If I set up Home Sharing then I can Home Share using the iPod Touch...which says that I do have connectivity at some level. Just that it is not being recognised by iTunes and so I am unable to load my apps or transfer any music over.

Many thanks lllaass
I had gone through the first part without success but had decided not to go through the second stage. But following your recommendation I did just that and it works!

My "iPod Classic (60GB) Click Wheel" is not being recognised in iTunes although the iPod shows up in 'my computer'.

My iPod Classic (60GB) Clickwheel is not being recognised in iTunes although the iPod shows in 'My Computer'. The problem started with an error message in iTunes saying "Could not complete sync as devise may have become corrupt" and suggested I restore the iPod to factory settings which I have done several times. I've carried out an error check in the iPod properties. I've completely removed iTunes and all related software components in the correct order and reinstalled version 10.5.3. I have been through the 5 R's numerous times but still the iPod is not being recognised in iTunes. I have Windows XP, I'm tearing my hair out now so any help or suggestions would be great

Try and force iPod into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPod
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

Iphone 3gs not being recognised by Itunes 10.1.2 on my Imac

Hi all,
This seems to be a common problem but all the posts that say they have succeeded don't work on mine. My problem started when my iphone was not being recognised. I did everything re-installed itunes, restarted computer etc and I finally went into DFU mode. Itunes recognised then but said it needed to be restored. At wits end i did this, now i have no phone as itunes wiped everything but since it wont recognise it again i cant get the phone past the connect to itunes/emergency call screen. I also tried deleting the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig" but i cant seem to find it where they said it would be. If i can find this file apparently this will help me but it simply not there.
Really hope that someone might have an answer that will work for me because i really need my cell phone back
P.S I have the latest itunes and Mac OS X 10.6.6

In this article about your device not being recognized in OSX, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 ,it is mentioned, that
In some cases, you may need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service.
So give it a try.

IPod not being recognised in iTunes

Hi all
I sold my iPod on eBay and, as far as I could tell, it was working perfectly when it was sent off. The buyer has sent it back to me claiming it wasn't being recognised in her iTunes and to my surprise it's now not being recognised in mine. I plug in the iPod and it charges through my Mac but does not become recognised in iTunes at all. Does anyone have any ideas as I am going to have to refund the buyer AND the iPod seems caput so it would be great if I could get it working one way or the other. Thanks so much in advance.

I tried what you suggested but it didn't seem to work for me. When i started the error check nothing happened, the bow for checking errors closed immideiatly after i clicked start. Did you do anythig else before checking the drive for errors, like put it in disk mode?
