ROKR not showing up on iTunes, only on desktop

I was in the middle of my first transfer, when iTunes got stuck somehow during the transfer of a song. All of a sudden, the program dissapeared off the screen and I got the error message about hitting the eject button for the device instead of just unplugging the cable, but the icon was gone, too.
I shut down the whole computer and disconnected the cable. Now, whenever I try to reconnect, the icon shows up on the desk top, but iTunes won't read it.
I've downloaded iTunes, Mac, and ROKR software updates and NOTHING is working. Anyone have an idea? I've been working on this for over three hours now.

Try reformatting the flash memory card on the phone. From the main menu, go to Settings, then Phone Status, then Storage Devices, then select Card and press the center Menu key, then choose Format. This will erase the entire contents of the memory card, which hopefully will fix the problem with iTunes.

Of course it always works, what are you talking about.
I appreciate that re-downloading is only available in the US and then only with certain content. However content that cannot be re-downloaded is not offered for purchase on the Apple TV.

ROKR not showing up on iTunes 6

ITunes doesn't list the phone and it's not visible on the desktop. The phone says it is connected as storage device, but I can see it only at the profiler. Can anybody help me?

Hi guys, this rokr thing's been drivin me nuts for like 1 month now. Same problem: neither itunes nor mac os 10.4.7 recognizing the phone memory or the memory card itself, no matter what option i chosed in the settings.
Did you know what i did? I just bought another USB cable, et voilà... Solved riddle. The problem with these motorola phones with the adaptor like theese is that the connectors inside come loose. Just think about it, do you remember the phone accidentally fall, even once while chargin?.... By the way, once i connected my rokr to the new USB cable, i've started noticing that rokr didn't connect so well so i had to un-plug it and plug it back into its own port. The cable here in europe costs something like € 10,00, it should be something like $8,00 for you guys. It's worth the shot, don't you think?
(Please excuse my awful english. just trying to help

IPod not showing up in iTunes, is on desktop

Hi, hope someone knows about this ... my iPod has been trouble free, now it appears on the desktop, but not in my iTunes. I'm not sure what to do, so want to ask before I do something that creates more problems for me. Thanks!

I answered my own question ... restarted and now it's there in iTunes. Hope this can help someone else.

Hey my iPod is not showing up on iTunes and my computer doesn't recognize it. It runs out of battery very fast and only shows the 'Connect to iTunes" screen. What do I do?

HT1918 I have Unknown Itunes charges on my credit card. I need help to identify the purchases. It does not show in my Itunes purchase history but only one my credit card statement.

I have some unknown Itunes charges on my credit card that I have been busting my brains on getting an answer. I HATE not getting to talk to a real person!!!! Same amount Charges show three consecutive days but does NOT show on my itunes purchase history. Suggestions greatly appreciated. A hammer to smash the computer would help too.

If they don't show on your purchase history on your account then have you have you added or changed your credit card details on your account - when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) ? If not then you could contact iTunes Support via this page and see if they can see what they are for : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT1349 I have podcasts on my iphone that are not showing up in iTunes. I can't get the delete arrow on the phone and can't delete from iTunes. Any ideas?

I would like to delete a number of podcasts from my iPhone. They do not show up in iTunes and when I pull the arrow on the phone it does not give me a delete option. I am using a Windows 7 PC. Recently I had to restore my computer, when I first reconnected my iPhone I thought it might sync it and wipe out everything on my iPhone, but it didn't do that. The only thing that seems messed up is the podcasts. I do have an app called Bookmark that I use to listen to books and podcasts. Thanks for any ideas.

I can't recall my passcode to my older iPod touch (after the newer one got stolen) and it's not showing up in iTunes, how can I restore it to clear the passcode?

I can't recall the passcode to my older iPod, iPod touch 2g 8GB, (someone stole my 4g) and it's not showing up in iTunes, is there any other way to do a 'restore' to clear the old passcode and be able to access the iPod? Anyone???

The only way is to restore the iPOd via iTunes. Have you tried:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
P
Have yu tried setting your iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next wold be to place the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see it. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

80 GB Ipod Classic does not show up in itunes or Win Vista Machine

Hi, I recently updated my itunes software with ver.8 and since then my 80 GB Classic ipod does not show up in itunes or in my computer. Hence, I am not able to sync my itunes. When I connect my ipod it just shows "Connected - Eject before disconnecting" and just freezes there. Pls help?

Hi. When I connect my ipod to any microsoft device, sometimes my ipod doesnt connect. I cant charge it, or restore it as it behaves like a useless piece of plastic.. I get a yellow bubble 'Device not recognized or has malfunctioned'
This problem is bizarre! I cannot find anyone who actually has a solution for this problem! Apples standard answer is for me to reinstall my drivers or update itunes or windows. Done it. No solution yet.
My ipod works fine.... sometimes. Its a completely unpredictable problem. Ive googled this problem and so many ipod classic owners have asked.. solutions ive tried: the 5r's, updating drivers, It managed to connect once, but now it wont. My ipod normally works fine on my PC, XBOX, laptop and Mac.. but sometimes, unpredictably, it wont be recognized by anything apart from the mac. For a month it would not connect at all and I took it in to an Apple store where they told me it works fine. Its not my PC.. its up to date, and theres no reason why it doesnt work on my XBOX because some times it does.. last night it did, today its broken again, I suspect tomorrow it may work. This is SO frustrating!!
I have alot of experience in PC's and normally I can solve a problem by process of elimination, updating and reinstalling, but in this case.. everything seems fine. My only idea is that maybe its my Sync cable?? Which also makes no sense because it generally connects fine on the mac - and, why would a sync cable be unpredictable.. surely it either works or it doesnt. HELP PLEASE!!
Nick.

my serial for my 80g classic is 8K819CPKYMV and is under warranty until May 2009, i bought it in August this year.

TS1363 1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes (windows 7)?

1st generation iPod shuffle does not show up in iTunes on my Windows 7 PC (but shows up in my computer). Tried all the Apple trouble-shooting steps (some several times). It used to work with Windows 7 on this PC. Are there other steps I can try?

I'm not sure what "all" means, unless you state them, so if you have not done so already, you should use this procedure to reset the iPod shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Then, shut down your computer (power off) and start it up, with iPod shuffle NOT connected. Run iTunes. Then, try connecting the iPod shuffle again.
Since this is a first gen iPod shuffle that IS recognized by the computer (so it's probably not a bad USB connector), you can also try using the iPod Reset Utility
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1238
This is for the first and second gen iPod shuffle only, and does a lower level reset than using a normal Restore in iTunes.

Ipod touch will not show up in itunes after update 11.1.14.62

After updating iTunes to 11.1.14.62 my 3 of my 4 devices will not show up in iTunes. I have two iPod touch devices, an iPhone 4, and an old iPod Shuffle. The only one that shows up is the iPod Shuffle. Everything was fine until this latest update. I've checked with other people and they're having the same issue. I have Windows 8.1 64 bit.

Hello weather1,
I understand that some of your devices are not recognized by iTunes. The following article may help to resolve your issue:

Phone is not showing up in iTunes. I've tried everything.

I have windows XP, iTunes 7.0.1.8, and a Motorola SLIVR.
When I connect my phone to my computer via USB, it sometimes does not show up in iTunes. if it does show up, anytime i try to transfer songs, or delete songs, or access the phone's music files in any way, i get an error message that says "The mobile phone "SLIVR" cannot be updated. Thre required folder was not found." and no changes are made.
Here is what I've done to attempt to correct:
1. Reinstalled iTunes with the latest download from their site. no luck.
2. Checked my USB settings on phone, it is set to Memory Card.
3. Un-plugged and restarted my computer and phone.
4. Tried re-formating, but the option wasn't there. I went to Settings>Phone Status>Storage Devices>Card, which took me to the Details page on my card. I hit the menu key, and there is no option to format. The only thing in the menu says "Copy All Text".
5. Plugged a different SLIVR in, and it still did not work.
6. Plugged my SLIVR into a different computer, and it works (had to re-sync and erase all my files, but was able to transfer songs to my phone).

it could be the cord. i have that same issue with my phone and it was the cord. you're not supposed to store the usb cord (or any other electrical cord) in a bunched up manner. anyway, i played around with my cord by bending it in different directions and now the cord works and my phone is recognized again. if all else fails, best to buy a new cord.

Not showing up in iTunes

I've had ATV for a month now and I'm about to reset the ATV for the third time due to various connection issues. The first time the ATV was frozen and no amount of soft resetting cured the problem so I hard reset. This time I have full control of my ATV but it is not showing up in iTunes. The ATV is on the network and can see You Tube and all the web based things, it just isn't being seen by my iTunes. I'm going to hard reset again and then I'll wait 12 hours for all my content to be reloaded onto my ATV. It doesn't appear that I'm the only one with this problem here, but it doesn't seem that there are any solutions to this just yet. Let's see if a hard reset does the trick.

Wifi can be broadcast over a number of channels (frequencies), typically they are channels 1 through 11 in the US, 1 through 13 in the UK & Europe and 1 through 14 in Asia. These are not necessarily discrete channels and a number will overlap. In Europe channels 1, 5, 9 & 13 are generally non-overlapped channels and would usually be the first ones to try, although channel 11 is often used as the default channel, presumably being a reflection of a dominant US market where channels 1, 6 and 11 are non-overlapped.
Depending on your router, settings will vary, you should look at your manual to learn how to change these settings on your specific equipment.

Photos not showing up in itunes

When I plug my ipad to the computer, photos do not show up in itunes.

To copy photos to the iPad, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
To copy photos that you've taken with the iPad to your computer then it's done not done via iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
