Replaced iPod.... Windows Reconizes iPod, but iTunes Doesn't. HELP!!!

I just got my iPod replaced today. When I pluged it in, it showed the "Do Not Disconnect" thing on it, and my computer tells me that it's plugged in. But, iTunes does not reconize it. I've tried updating it, resetting it, and putting it in different USB ports, yet none of these help. PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Mike, how did you fix this? I am having the same problem. I just got rid of my G4 and bought a G5 and it will not see it.
Thanks,
Nick

    Did you go through all the options?

  • Windows recognizes ipod nano (1st generation) but itunes doesn't

    I'm a happy owner of ipod nano for about a year. My itunes and ipod nano was working perfectly until few days ago I encountered problems with both of them.
    I fixed my itunes (which kept showing an error message when I tried to uninstall/repair it) but after i got that fixed my itunes couldn't detect my ipod nano.
    I looked at a directions page in this website and it told me to "press start service" in something. (i forgot what that "something" was)
    Whenever I connect my ipod nano to my itunes, the ipod folder & error message about "ipod service module" pops up.
    I'm DESPERATE to fix this problem. So please answer my question and thank you. =]

    One of the services in Windows that has to be on is iPod Service. If that service doesn't stay started, iTunes won't see the iPod.
    Go into your services (administrative tools, services) and scroll down until you see it. If the service doesn't say started, right-click on it, choose start. In properties, it should show as automatic.
    While I know you already reinstalled iTunes, another reinstall of it might put the service back in the correct mode of starting whenever iTunes needs it.

  • Ipod in recovery mode but itunes doesn't recognise it

    Basically, I upgraded my iTunes to 9.0.3 yesterday. During this I got a message saying I should upgrade my iPod or something like that. During this there was an error, I can't remember what but then, my iPod disappeared from the devices. When I looked at the iPod it was telling me to connect with iTunes. When I did the computer said Computer found new device- Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode). However, iTunes doesn't recognise it! I have tried uninstalling itunes and many things. I can't get it to work again. Please help!

    I have the same problem. Yesterday I connected my iPod Touch to my PC and iTunes prompted me to update the ipod's software to 1.1.2 (I think thats the new one?), I accepted and it proceded to download it. When it finished downloading it tried to update the software but for some reason it failed. An error message came up saying that the ipod will have to be restored. I went ahead and tried to restore it, it gave an option for restore and update, that didn't work. My iPod won't even turn on now, it just shows the iTunes icon and the USB cable. When I connect to my PC iTunes says its in recovery mode and the software tries to do the update, the iPod screen shows the Apple logo and the updating icon, the screen goes blank and the process starts again, after a couple of attempts an error message appears on screen saying an error occurred and gives an error code of 1611 (or something like that).
    Holding down sleep and home together doesn't do anything.
    What is up with it? I've tried the same thing in my girlfriend macbook and the exact same error happened.

  • Ipod connects to computer but Itunes doesn't recognize it.

    Whenever I plug in my ipod the window comes up asking what I want to do with my music. When I click Itunes it says:
    IPodService Module has encountered a problem and needs to close.
    I have reported the error and have made sure my Itunes is up to date and everything this has been going on for about a few weeks.
    Help please Im gettin very frustrated!

    Did this start happening after you updated to Service Pack 3?
    If so, open your Device Manager. (Right-click "My Computer", select "Manage", click "Device Manager".) Is your Device Manager currently completely blank?
    When Device Manager is blank after an SP3 install, getting Device Manager displaying correctly again should also fix the "iPod Service Module" crash.
    For a manual method of fixing the SP3 problem, see the following Microsoft document:
    Device Manager and Network Connections may be blank after you install Windows XP Service Pack 3
    For an automated tool for fixing the problem, see the following Symantec document:
    Problems occur after installing Windows XP Service Pack 3 or Windows Vista Service Pack 1 with a Norton 2008 product installed

    I recently dug out my old 160gb iPod Classic. Every time I connect it to iTunes, the program freezes and/or crashes. My computer recognizes that the iPod is plugged in, (it's accesible under "My Computer") but iTunes doesn't acknowledge it, at all. I've tried every single solution I've seen, and none of them work. I know the Classic is outdated, but my other iPod doesn't have nearly as much room. Can anyone help with this?

    Check the iPod Hardisk, with DiskDiagnostic as posted here by tt2
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/17776595#17776595
    It wont fix your problem, but help us both, in troubleshooting, and reducing frivolous suggestions.
    If your report says high Realloc or Pending Sector, then it's time to have your hardisk replaced.

    Try force rebooting it, hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds until the apple boot logo comes up. If that doesn't work, try rebooting your computer.
