No Sync IPod with 7.0 ITunes and using Windows 2000.

I've been up and down the search to find sync the IPod up with ITunes 7.0 but everything seems to be with XP. I have W2000. Does anyone know what needs to be done so I can sync up? Sometimes it works and sometimes nothing. Mostly nothing.

Have you tried these several things?
++Reset your iPod (hold the Menu and center buttons together).
++Put your iPod in disk mode, then connect it to your computer.
++Try restarting your computer, then connect your iPod.
++Save your iTunes library, and completely reinstall the program through "Contro Panel -> Add or remove programs" area.
++unplug all other USB devices that are connected to your computer, then connect your iPod.
++See if your iPod is low on charge. If it is, eject it through the Safely Remove Hardware program, and leave it connected for an hour. After that, unplug it, and connect your iPod again in disk mode (see above for details).
++Close iTunes. Try going to Task Manager, to the "Processes" tab. Find these names: "iPodSErvice.exe", "iTuneshelper.exe", and "iTunes.exe". End all of these processes. Reset your iPod, connect it, and open iTunes.
++Have you tried resetting your iPod while connected to your computer?
++Have you tried assigning your iPod a different drive letter? See the steps here -> Assigning your iPod a different drive letter
++Have you tried to complete all the Five R's? REad more about it here -> the Five R's
++Also, you may want to consider going back to iTunes 6. You can find the download of the previous version here -> Download iTunes 6.0.5
++All the suggestions in this article? -> iPod is recognized by Windows, but not iTunes
++Also, see if this is a possibility -> Fast user switching
I'm not sure if you've tried those or not, cause that's just some possibilities I can think of now. If you have any problems with those, post back with the details of your issue, and I'll try to help.

Can I sync it with the Mac (iTunes) and use it as a storage device on Win?

I have my iPod nano set to sync with my Mac where I have iTunes installed. In the Mac I also set (via iTunes) the iPod to behave as a mass storage device.
My question is: can I use my iPod to sync music at my home Mac and while at my job connect it to my Winows PC (without iTunes) to use it just as a USB storage device?
I once tryed to use the nano as a storage device at Windows (without iTunes) and something went wrong. In the end I had to reset nano and reinstall the iPod soft.

Probably the easiest way to use an iPod on both Mac and Windows computers is to format the iPod (using iPod Updater) using the PC. This will force your iPod to use the Windows file system (FAT32) which both the Mac and PC can read from and write to without the help of additional software. Of course then all your software updates for the iPod will have to be done on Windows.  If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.

You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year. It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you. Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices. See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine, tried solutions from other threads with no luck, just thought i'd see if anyone else had any ideas, thanks.

Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine so the problem seems confined to Windows 7. I've tried solutions from other threads -
Making sure everything is allowed through firewall
Rebooting phone/laptop/router
Disabling ipv6
Disabling all networks except the one curently on
Re-installing iTunes
Restoring iPhone
No luck with any of those unfortunately so i just thought i'd see if anyone else is still without wifi sync after trying those as well and if you ever found a fix, thanks.

I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).

Can I sync music with my iMac iTunes AND calendar+address book with my PC?

I use my iMac at home and a PC in the office. I therefore store all my appointments and contacts in the Microsoft Outlook in my PC. I've already sync my new iPod Touch with my iMac at home and wonder whether I can plug it to the PC to sync just the Outlook appointments and contacts.

After my previous post from work I came home and did a sync here but with contacts & appointments disabled and it worked. I now have seperate types of items sync'ed on different computers!
I now plan to manage my music manually and rip some CDs on my much faster work computer and only 'sync' my Outlook info.
Hope this is the answer for you!

My playlists only appear in itunes when my ipod is connected, and it will not allow me to drag songs into playlists from the music library, can anyone help. Have downloaded newest version of itunes and using windows xp.

My Playlist only appear in the itunes when the ipod is connected , and I can not drag a song into a playlist, Also I repeatedly get a message to authorize the songs purchased in order to sync the ipod. I followed the instructions in the help menu on doing this but nothing seems to work, Help anybody ? Have installed the lastest version of itunes and I'm running windows XP. Thanks

Is it possible that you are not seeing the thirteenth song because you did not scroll all the way down within the playlist?
Hope this helps!

Why can I not synch my brand new IPod with one purchased itune and 2 riped from a CD, both of which are shown in my itunes account. The unhelpful "support" suggests I click an icon pictured but not in any screen view available to me. This is really off-pu

Just bought an IPod Classic and put 3 songs on my iTunes account - 1 purchased and 2 from a CD. I can't sync and the screen shot shown in the help section doesn't ressemble my scren views. i have now been on hold for 55 minutes despite a mesage saying "15 minutes or more" that implied a much quicker experience. This is really an unimpressive begining.

My iTunes library on my PC has more music on it than the iPod - when I sync, it does nor sync with the whole of the library - why? - help?

Good morning! I just have a couple questions so I can help. What kind of iPod do you have? What is the capacity? (Example: 16G, 32G, etc...)
Also, how much music are you trying to sync, memory wise?

Trying to sync iPod with library, but receive this message, "The iPod is synced with another itunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library". I do not want to erase my iPod... Any suggestions?? Please help!!

Trying to sync ipod with itunes library, but I keep getting this message, " The ipod is synced with another itunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this i tunes library?"
I do not want to erase my ipod!!! Any suggestions?? please help!

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

There is no Info tab in Mavericks
if you use OS X v.10.8.5 or earlier. If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.
