Did you:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests
- Try on another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem

Bootcamp - Seems there is no Support for Windows 8.1 once it is loaded. Just got off the Microsoft Help line and they refused to help me because I was running Win 8.1 in Bootcamp. Where do I go for help?

Bootcamp - Seems there is no Support from Microsoft for Windows 8.1, once it is loaded.
I Just got off the Microsoft Technical Help line (Australia ph132058) and they refused to help me because I am running Win 8.1 in Bootcamp.
I have the latest Mac Book Pro Retina with a 1TB Solid State Hard drive running Win 8.1, beautiful machine, but its slower than my old MBP running windows 7 on a standard Drive.
The niggiling problem is that it seems to hang up for seven or 8 seconds on menial tasks........ like generating a new Folder or Note etc. Otherwise it runs reasonably well but not blindingly fast....
I wasn't aware Microsoft refused to help win 8.1 users on the Mac Platform........ shouldn't this Information be made more public...! Seems they are keen to drive potential Windows users away!!
Any suggestions on where I should go for help on this (Windows/Bootcamp in General) would be much appreciated ? ........ don't mind paying a reasonable price if the service is good......
I guess the wheel has turned and Microsoft are having a go at Apple again...?
Many thanks ....... Martin V

Thanks Turbostar.
I was thinking along the same lines. I installed Win 8.0 Pro and upgraded to 8.1 ........ probably a bad move.
I have bought a new 8.1 Licence but cant risk doing a complete reinstall until I have a back up machine ready. (My old MBP is getting a new hard drive) ......... so will give that a go in about a weeks time when the back up is in place. Cant risk having nothing!
When you say "Clean Install" ..... do you mean everything ..... as in Reformat the Bootcamp sector and start from scratch.?
I have a 2 TB LaCie Thunderbolt drive with my back up data on ..... is there a way to make the Reinstall process and large amount of Data transfer easy?
The reinstall is something I need to read up on. I was hoping the solution might be some kind of Tune up on the SSHD.
Good to hear you have a number of MBP's that are flying, I would be disappointed if the final quality wasnt a bit better.
..... do you have any tips on screen Res on the Retina ..... I am running Windows at 125% Zoom, but the Bluetooth, power, wireless, Date Icons etc are all still tiny ...... could really do with an alternative to the old "Advanced Appearance Settings"
cheers ..... Martin V

Does it light up at all? If not, you could have a battery issue.

Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is trying to backup data from the iPhone. I have done everything suggested in Apple support. How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my phone?

Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is backing up data from the iPhone before installing the new operating system. I have done everything suggested in Apple support with no success. I still get the error everytime (about 5 minutes into backing up iPhone data). How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my iPhone (the error message says that if I continue I will lose all data on the phone)? If I have already synced the phone before upgrading the OS, would I be able to restore my data after installing the new OS by syncing after the OS upgrade is complete? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

IPod Touch NOT showing up on iTunes! I've done everything!

My iTunes sometimes freezes, and my iPod Touch (which is new) NEVER shows up on iTunes, maybe it's my external hard-drive? My iPod still doesn't connect with my external plugged out, and it shows up as a digital camera in "My computer". My old Nano shows up on my iTunes and My Computer, the original cable is not the problem, because my iPod touch shows up on other computers, not my desktop though. But anyways I've done a fresh, clean OS re-install, re-installed everything Apple (iTunes, Mobile Support, etc.) it shows up in My Computer, and it shows up in Device Manager under "Portable Devices" when it should be under "Universal Serial Bus Controllers", I have Windows 7 by the way. Thanks a lot in advance!

My ipod nanos are not being recognized in iTunes. I have tried everything! Changed the drive letter, the disk to FAT32, resetted it, downloaded itunes again, but nothing has worked! HELP please.

Somehow my nano now lost all its music so now its empty! Also, before windows used to recognize my ipod and i'd get a pop up saying "open to view files" but now I don't even get that anymore. I have also tried syncing it by putting them in disk mode but NOTHING has worked. I am getting so frustrated.
I followed all of the "steps" on the apple support page but none of that has worked too. PLEASE help me because I literally feel like just throwing my ipods out the window. I never had this problem before.

When you connect your iPod to your PC, what appears on the iPod's display? Does the iPod charge when you have it plugged into the PC?
Are you running the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3)? It wouldn't hurt to also make sure your Windows OS has all of the latest patches and updates as well.
I assume you have plugged the iPod ino different USB ports located directly on your PC and tried using another 30 pin dock connector cable to rule out the possibility of a bad cable?

My Ipod nano 6 has disappeared from my devices and also from my programmes on my computer. I have done everything it says to do in the troubleshooting. Does anyone know what else I can do?

My Nano 6th gen has disappeared from my devices in itunes and also from programmes on my computer. I have tried all the troubleshooting and it has not fixed it?

There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.

Ipod touch is not recognized by itunes

Why is my ipod touch is not recognized by itunes? I have tried everything that the troubleshooting guide says and nothing works. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Just what have you tried. There are many Apple articles on the subject and it easy to miss one or more. Did it work before? Did you do anything to the computer since it last worked? oDoes the iPod work OK? Have you tried:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iPod: Does not appear in Windows or iTunes and Device Manager is empty

30GB iPod Video not being recognized by iTunes and low battery warning

This is without a USB connection to mu Vista machine
1. I hear a clicking sound (it comes from the HD) on start up.
2. A dark Apple icon appears
3. Then the back light comes on with the sad face iPod icon and exclamation point.
4. It then shuts down and screen goes off.
Plug it into a USB port and same issue but the screen shows an un-backlit "Please Wait Very Low Battery" message.
If I leave it plugged into the USB port it just cycles through the process.
Note too that the iPod is not recognized by iTunes.
I have done the reset process without success.
I thiught I had a bad HD and/or battery so I replaced both. I get the same issues.
Anyone have an idea?

Well I tried putting the old hard drive back in and it was recognized in iTunes. All is well now.
I think the issue is that once the battery is totally run down there is no way for the thing to get enough power from a USB port to bootstrap itself.
I finally let thing recharge from a wall adapter all day.
I suggest you try to get it charged via the car adapter overnight. Of course the car port must be supplying power with the key off.
The Apple store people said they fix this type of issue by charging the ipod for 20 mimutes with a high power charger (I assume this is a 1394 type).
All these issues coulkd be solved with a better design,

I have done everything apple suggests, and my ipod still isn't working

I was given a 1st generation shuffle from my brother and have been using it for about a year now until apple came out with itunes 8.1. Then things went bad....really bad. First it started playing songs in shuffle order even though I had shuffle off. After this, I had problems with new songs downloaded on the shuffle because they wouldn't play, and my song list was shortened. After this I tried restoring my shuffle and it couldn't restore it. It never finished restoring cause it came up with an error of 1419. I downloaded the apple reset utility program and all it does when I run this, is tell me an error, tell me it can't obtain information, or it freezes when I run that program. The one thing the program does do, it makes the i pod status light blink orange compared to it doing nothing at all. I have done everything else on the support page, i mean everything, and nothing has worked. I even got a new 1st generation shuffle from my brother and it ended up doing the same thing exact thing!!! Please someone tell me something that works!!

Is this shuffle white with a USB plug on one end. That's the 1st gen shuffle. If it has a clip with a colorful (or silver) metal case, that's a 2nd gen shuffle.
Since these two shuffles BOTH have this problem on your computer, ask your brother if he can use Restore in iTunes on these shuffles (or use the iPod Reset Utility). If it works on his computer, there is something odd happening on your computer.
If you think a combination of iTunes 8.1 and something about your computer is causing this problem, remove iTunes 8.1. Then install iTunes 8.0
http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_0_2_forWindows
Then see if you can get the shuffle to work or restore.

Ok I've read all these I cant get my ipod touch to be recognized in itunes.. I too have done everything it says in support for windows 8.. its doesnt work. my ipod i just got touch 4 is stuckj in restore. I cant find a driver.. cant download from here
