Same problem as everyone else
Ipod is not recognized by itunes. its been freezing up lately and i'm about to throw it out the window. when i connect it to my computer it just winds up then stops and will wind up again. As this is going on it freezes up all programs that i open up. apple tech support and their site is useless, i've tried everything that they say to do except restore but how the **** am i suppose to do that if it doesn't connect to my computer? crappy designing on apple's part. anyone know how to restore it manually or know where i can get an older version of itunes? don't tell me to reset it either cause i've done it and it does nothing
I have the exact same problem as Brandon has listed above and have (several times) removed all I pod and I tunes related software from my computer then re-down loaded and re installed to no avail.
If my I pod is attached to my computer (windows xp & 3gn I pod) and I bring up I tunes v.6 the entire computer locks up. the only way I can get it going again is to hit the re start button. it wont even re boot via ctl / alt / del!
Several times as the computer is re starting I will get the blue screen with a message telling me that my I pod drive has invalided temp files, what ever that is supposed to mean.
As long as I tunes v.6 in NOT running my computer will see the I pod. I believe it is listed as drive g. As soon as i bring up i tunes v.6 everything locks up.
I hate to lose all my songs (again) on the I pod but may try the suggestion of changing the drive letter of the I pod.
I may even try a format command to reformat the hard drive of the i pod.
Not sure if it will help but i am just about ready to give up.
My buddy uses a Dell mp3 player, and has had no problems at all. I'm thinking i may just give up on apple altogether.
By the way I have about ½ of my music library stroed on the i-pod 1,500 songs or so. I had to manually drag each one into the I pod because the automatic update feature always locked up my computer.
Now I cant even manually drag the songs over, everything just locks up.

Same problems as everyone else
Just throwing my hat in. Same problems. System shuts down at about 1 hour left with no warning. Battery life improved upon update though which was nice but this just isnt going to cut it.
I'm having the same problem.I have tried everything.I took it back to the store today to see if maybe I could get the software for the iPod Nano but I never got the software.I have been cancelling the download and trying to redownload iTunes 7 but the Win32 message keeps on popping up.

IPhone 3G not detected by iTunes. Not the same problem like everyone has!
I have iPhone 3G. It shows on screen, connect iTunes all the times. I read all the solutions on internet. I tried everything to fix the problem even Restore Mode or DFU Mode, but iPhone never detected by iTunes or computer. I tired both Mac or Windows Computers, but still nothing. Any ideas??? This forum is my last chance. I gonna break this phone if still nothing and buy a different brand. I don't wanna pay $268.00 to Apple, change with the refurbished one. I paid much enough to buy this one. Thanks for all help.
The iPhone can only sync on one computer. Is this a new phone or an old phone? If it's a phone you already had, did you change computers? If the phone you had was already synced on another computer then it may have to be deauthorized on that other computer, but I'm not sure. I had an older original iPhone that we replaced and then I wanted to use it as a iPod. I forgot that I had synced it with an older computer. When I connected it to mine my iTunes would recognize it, but wouldn't let me sync to it because it was synced to another computer. So I had to connect it to the older computer, deauthorize it and then it synced fine on my new computer. Not sure if that is a similar issue to yours or not. You need to give us more information. Like were you able to sync it before and this is something new etc. More info that you give the easier it will be for someone to answer you.

The Same Problem EVERYONE else is having!
Well, this will be no surprise: my PC won't recongnize the iPod through the USB, nor will iTunes or the Updater. Yada, yada, yada...it's all the same problems that everyone else has been complaining about and I've tried all of the solutions that everyone has also mentioned. Nothing works.
The closest I came to actually getting the iPod formatted was when the Updater allowed me to click on the "restore" button. It seemed like it was doing something and then BAM! The "Can't mount iPod" error comes up!
Why is this thing so "buggy" with a PC? Does anyone have any solid solutions? Or do you just keep playing with it and praying that it will somehow or other work at some point?Well I've tried PRETTY MUCH all of the suggested solutions. I really don't feel like going out and buying another SCI card for my laptop only to find out it doesn't fix the problem. Yes, I'm on a Dell Inspiron 4150 laptop, running XP and connecting the iPod through the USB port on the SCI card (it's a dual card, which also has a firewire port).
I also don't feel like going through the hassle of buying a firewire cable only to find out that it doesn't fix anything either.
I spent a good hour on the phone with Apple tech support and got nowhere. She had me uninstalling, re-installing, re-booting, running msconfig, turning off Norton, setting the iPod in "disk mode", uninstalling and reinstalling some more, etc. and in the end nothing made a difference!
I can get the Updater to recognize the iPod, but when I click the "restore" button I keep getting that "can't mount iPod" error. (And I know for a fact that Windows is installed on the C Drive, so that can't be the problem.)
This is so frustrating. The tech support lady said if the last thing didn't work (which it didn't) then to call them back and they would continue to try and figure out how to solve the problem.
It really shouldn't be this complicated, should it? Why don't they make an iPod that is pre-formatted for use with a PC?? -
My audio books are not showing up in purchase history, but everything else is okay... is anyone having the same problem? I have already authorised my new computer and I am currently downloading my purchased music and videos however the books (audiobooks) are not showing for download.
Hope someone can help!"My audio books are not showing up in purchase history,"
That is correct. You cannot redownload audiobooks.
" is anyone having the same problem?"
Everyone and it is not a problem. Audiobooks simply are not available for redownload. -
My 4S will get on internet but will not connect to any site including the App store or I tunes. If I cut Wifi off and go thru Verizon network then it is just fine. It is very slow loading tho. Everyone else in my house connects just fine.
Jglee,
I can understand how connecting to Wi-Fi is very important to maintain better control of your GB. I appreciate all the troubleshooting you have already tried to get this issue corrected. Does your 4s have the most current software? You can check this in setttings: Settings>General>Software Update. Keep us posted. We are here to help.

Yes. Not that my iPad gets disconnected, it actually might be causing everyone else to disconnect from the router, including itself.
Whenever I connect my router to this wifi at work or home at periodic intervals it actually causes everyone, including wifi and 'hard-line' users to receive no connection to the local network and internet.
When the iPad stops connecting to the wifi, the problem stops for the duration it stays off, Tested it at durations of no iPad connection of 4 hours with no problems. And when connected it causes everyone on the network to drop (for all users) every 5-15 minutes.
Why does ithis happen and how do I make it stop?Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Exchange Email not working on Iphone 4S is anyone else having the same problem and is there a fix for this?
@ w3nitro
I'm having the same issues, except only one of my Exchange accounts took a dive after upgrading to iOS 5.1. My Gmail account (set up as Exchange) works flawlessly but my native Exchange account (work e-mail) stopped working after the update.
Post update to 5.1: (work Exchange account) I could view my inbox and view individuals emails in the inbox, but I was unable to send any emails. Mail started asking for my password after the update (for the affected Exchange account) but once entered, it failed to verify.
I completley removed the Exchange account and rentered all the account settings but again, failure to verify any information. I was hoping my password might have changed but it did not. Also, maybe the IT guy at the office (not very bright) changed some settings but the only difference is the new iOS update.
And while playing with the iPhone trying to make it work again, I noticed something really weird. Old emails (2-3 weeks) from multiple email accounts to include the inop Exchange account started showing up again on the pull down notification menu. I would clear these out of the notificaion menu but they always kept reapearing; very strange. -
I recently purchased iPad 4 and it is only one month old. I updated with iOS 7 and next day got problem with Skype and yahoo mails. People can't hear me on Skype though I can hear them clearly. I was replying yahoo mails quite nicely and now as I start typing the iPad turns black and have to open it again. Is there any one else facing the same problem? I was thinking to go to apple shop for support? Any suggestions?
1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again -
I have two macs at my house, and multiple iPhones. I want to keep the same apple id as everyone else, but i want to put my own music only on my iPhone. I want to do this with my laptop which is not the family's main iTune's computer.
If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on each device, yes. However, you can use the same Apple ID for iTunes content on each device, but different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc., on each device. That way, you can have whatever iTunes content you want on each phone, but keep all of the other data separate. You can create another Apple ID here:

I have updated my Apple TV to 5.1. Using the Remote app on my IPhone and iPad I can browse the music library on the Apple TV but I cannot select a song to play. Has someone else the same problem?
MatsI think I found the reason. On my iMac that is hosting the music library a song already was playing. This seems to block out me from selecting another song though my Apple TV.

A few weeks ago I had the same issue where items (tv shows) I purchased on itunes would not show using my apple tv on my main television. It gives me an error stating I need to "authorize" the device/account etc. There is no problem with the authorization it is correct; tv show plays on the computer. The last time this happened the local apple store suggested I bring in my entire imac, hard drive, apple tv, etc. This seemed crazy since I had been able to eliminate that there was a problem with my password, imac, etc. I had also already tried all of the restore, reset, options to include restoring the apple tv, changing password and authorizing everything again. Then I found out via an online discussion there were others having the same problem and it was due to some sort of server issue apple was having. Is anyone else having this problem besides me again?
I think I have the same problem.
Apple TV 2. I can watch stuff I downloaded a while ago, but after I downloaded a season of a TV show on Friday night (Oct 28), I got the "Authorization Required" message. Ruined my Friday night trying to troubleshoot this, and found a bunch of posts on this forum about Apple's Servers being down can cause this. Since I'd done nothing different to my setup, I assumed that indeed "Apple's servers being down" was causing my grief.
It's now Oct 31st, and I'm still getting the error on the newly-downloaded stuff. So either Apple's servers are having serious grief (and passing it on to me!) or else there might be something else after all.
I've de-authorized and re-authorized my computer (I never thought for a second it would help because I can play "older stuff". Everything in my TV shows folder is bought from iTunes - i.e., it's all completely legit. We haven't even vacuumed behind the TV(!!) so we haven't disturbed anything... And the key info is that I can play stuff purchased prior to Oct 28th, but the stuff I purchased on Oct 28th hets the "Authorization required" message.
Does anyone have any ideas?
