Since software update, can't see contents of iPod when connected to iTunes

About 2 days ago, when I connected my iPod to my pc (iTunes), it said there were some software updates for my iPod so I downloaded them and the iPod rebooted itself. Once it came back up, my iPod showed up in iTunes under "devices" on the left hand sidebar. I got the registration page - I usually click register later, but nothing happened this time. It didn't bring me into my iPod. So I tried to Register. I could get so far, then it asked if I wanted some free movie or something, I said NO THANKS, CONTINUE, but nothing happened. I wasn't registered AND I couldn't access my iPod. I can see my iPod under My Computer. I can see "sandra's iPod" uder devices in iTunes. BUT, I can't get to the content when connected to iTunes. All of my stuff is there on the iPod. I can play my iPod when it's not connected to iTunes - but I can't see the content, manipulate playlists, delete songs, etc. when connected to iTunes. I am almost positive this is a result of the latest software updates to the iPod. I have not updated iTunes - I didn't want to and compound the problem. I'm not a techy person - so please be gentle! Thank you. Sandra

  • Can't Play Songs on iPod when connected to iTunes

    This is a problem with my daughter's iPod, not mine (thankfully).
    When she plugs her iPod into her computer, she sees the iPod icon in the iTunes Source list. But when she clicks on the iPod, ALL of the songs are grayed out and can't be played. Doesn't matter whether we look in her iPod Library or in the playlists.
    All of the songs on her iPod are in iTunes, but she was hoping to delete the songs from iTunes in order to save disk space, and just play the songs on her computer thru the iPod connection.
    Anyone have any idea why her iPod songs are grayed out, and more importantly, how we can fix this?
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • While updating the software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4 on iPhone 5, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in.

    While updating the iPhone 5 software from 6.1.3 to 6.1.4, the power failed. iTunes had just finished the backup and was beginning the software update. Now the phone screen says to connect to iTunes but the phone is not recognised when plugged in. Using Windows 7 and phone not recognised by computer, let alone by iTunes.
    Any suggestions? Happy to take it off to the the Apple genius people but would prefer to get it running myself.

  • E61 Software Updater Can't see phone

    HI
    My product number is 0531060 and my current firware is 1.0610.04.04
    I turn my phone on, plug in the USB lead, select PC Suite. Open PC suite and it shows that the phone is connected.
    So I open Software Updater and it disconnects the phone from PC Suite as expected but then says it cant see the phone or software updater can't work with the model phone whcih I know is incorrect.
    Am I doing the right things in the right order or why, when PC SUite sees the phone Sodtware Updater can't ?
    Cheers

    MacBook Air does not run iOS.  It runs OS X (pronounced as in OS - ten).  You can check which version you have by clicking the Apple logo in the upper left of the menu bar, then "About This Mac".  The current version is OS X 10.8.4.  If you do not have that version, you can click "Software Update" just below the "About This Mac" entry under the Apple logo.
    Anyway, typically, the reason for the FaceTime behavior you're describing is a less-than-robust internet WiFi connection.

  • Can't see printer or shares when connected via Internet Sharing

    I recently switched from a 2006 to a 2008 Mac Pro. Rather than do a migration I simply took the hard drives from the old machine and put them in the new one.
    I then upgraded to Mountain Lion.
    I use Internet Sharing to share my Mac Pro's Ethernet connection via wifi, but the other Macs can't see the Mac Pro's printer or shares when connected in this way. They can access the internet. If I connect a machine via the LAN rather than Internet Sharing, the shares and printer are visible.
    This worked fine on Lion on the old machine. Any ideas?

    Seems that the issue is something to do with connecting via WPA2. When I set Internet Sharing to use WEP (by option-clicking the security menu), I'm then able to see the network shares and the printer.

  • TS2972 i can only see my homeshare library when i have itunes opened on my lap top. as soon as i close it on my laptop it goes away on my pc

    i purchased a new dell desktop. my home itunes is on my laptop. the home share only works on the pc when i have itunes opened on my laptop. as soon as i close it on my laptop it disappears frpm the pc library

    Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
    Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
    If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.
    If there's a lot of stuff in your original laptop's library, the transfer may take some time.

  • Software Update can't connect to the internet

    Hi everyone
    My iMac's software update can't seem to find my internet connection. It gives this message after trying to find new updates:
    *A networking error has occurred: timed out (-1001). Make sure you can connect to the Internet, then try again.*
    Software Update can't check for updates because of a network problem.
    Then I can click either 'Network Diagnostics' - which always says I'm connected, or 'Quit'
    Is there some way I can get Software Update back online so that I don't have to manually download everything from the apple website??

    Hello Sasha:
    You can try something easy first. Trash a couple of preference files:
    com.apple.softwareupdate.plist
    com.apple.softwareupdate.nnnnnnnn.plist (where nnnnn is a bunch of numbers and letters)
    Restart.

  • The blue circles in movies are not on my i pad since last update can i put them back ?, The blue circles in movies are not on my i pad since last update can i put them back ?

    The blue circles next to the mivies do not apear anymore since last update , can i put them back to see wich movies un-watched.

    That happened because you synce'd your phone to a new computer, the phone can only be synce'd with one library. You can get all your songs back if they were puchased in itunes. Go to purchased in itunes store and download is at the bottom of the page.

  • What does it mean when my ipad is in Recovery mode? It's connected to my imac for software update and it says I must "restore" the ipad before itunes can be used. Will I lose everything on my ipad?

    Unless you have a backup from which you can restore, yes you will lose all of your data and settings.
    You should be able to sync your content back to the iPad if you have been syncing with iTunes all along. If you don't sync with iTunes, you can download much of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID. This explains downloading past purchases.

    Unfortunately, at this point, you must restore the device before you can move on. There is nothing you can do to avoid it now.

  • "Software Update Can't Connect to Update Server"

    I am running 10.4.9
    For whatever reason, I can no longer update the System using the Software Update function.
    Have done the following:
    I have deleted the software update preferences.
    I have tried logging in under a newly created account.
    I have repaired and verified the disk.
    Nothing seems to work. I can otherwise connect to the Internet, and even the Itunes store just fine.
    Any suggestions?

    Not sure, but I would try and download and install the update manualy. You can get it

    Then do your restart and try software update again to see if it works.
