Somebody HELP!!! windows vista and Ipod Issues

Ok I downloaded the latest version of Itunes, I reset the Ipod, but for some reason my computer when I conect the usb cable the "found new hardware" windows pops up, I do not have a software to install for Ipod and the only thing I can find on the website are manuals to download, also my Itunes won't even see the Ipod hooked to the computer, nothing happens, zero, nada and it's killing me. I updated all the windows updates including the kb936824, which supposely would help me and still nothing happens. Also my Itunes its empty none of my songs are in there. can somebody smarter than me help me? I'm starting to regret getting a windowns vista pc.

Well, although iTunes 7.1.0.59 (and now 7.1.1.5) cleared up some problems with running/installing iTunes software on it, Vista isn't really officially compatible at the moment.
What exactly is happening when installing the iTunes/iPod software?
If you are getting any error messages, please quote what ehey say, and/or when the problem occurs.
Be sure that you've upgraded to the latest iTunes version (7.1.1.5). Here is the download page for it:

  • Need Help - Windows Vista and Latest Flash Player

    Have Windows Vista and Adobe for viewing video. Just recently I was unable to

    as instructed and was advised that download was successful but still can't view the videos
    since the same sign shows up. Have tried to see what I'm missing but without much luck.

  • Problem with  Windows Vista and Ipod!!!!

    I tried a couple of times to import my music from my computer and cds to my ipod nano .
    The thing is that I know I have transfered some songs and photos properly cause I can see the files are in the ipod memory but as soon as I unplug it from the USB and try to find them in the nano menu it's empty , no music , no photos , nothing...
    What can I do?
    Can somebody help me or give me some advice?
    thanks a lot

    if you were on an XP or 2000 box, my first thought would be to check for a Windows drive letter confusion, as per:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
    i don't have a Vista box at this stage, so i'm not quite sure where Vista keeps its "Drive Management" analogue ... but if you can find that, try changing the drive letter to see if that helps.

  • Windows Vista and ipod

    I heard on the radio that ipod is not yet compatible with windows vista so I haven't synced my ipod nano with my library since I got my new computer. Is this true and if it is what can I do about it?

    You heard wrong, but this forum is for troubleshooting compatibility issues between Macs and Windows. Please post your question in the iPod discussions.

  • Help: Windows freezes and iPod empty

    Last night (UK) I posted a message considering the problem that My Computer, iTunes and iPod Updater don't recognise my iPod ANYMORE (so it did before).
    Now, even worse, when I plug in my iPod Windows XP freezes. My iPod cannot be properly disconnected. When I do so, the iPod gets stuck on "don't disconnect." It takes a long time, before the iPod recognises it's not longer connected to the computer and it loads Menu. However, every file on it is gone (and I cant reload or update it, since my PCI doesnt recognised it anymore).
    Strangely, my iPod Info says that there is just about 20 gig of free space in it. Although there are no files on it anymore.
    So what is failing: my computer or my iPod???
    Any help welcome!

    Since the iPod seems to be recognised on other comps then it does sould as if the problem is with the comp rather than the iPod itself.
    Make sure the iPod is fully charged before you start.
    Try creating a new user account on the comp which won't recognise the iPod and use that account.
    Go through the apple 5R's, be sure to uninstall iTunes and the iPod software with the iPod disconnected from the comp and when you reinstall do so with the iPod disconnected and only connect the iPod when the software prompts you to do so or after the install has completed. You might like to reboot the PC after you've uninstalled the iTunes and iPod software and reboot again after you've completed the reinstall. Follow apple's instructions to the letter.
    If you still don't get it to work you will need to consider reinstalling XP and starting over with a clean install.
    Hope that helps.

    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

    Try this:
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Your expectations are not based in reality.
    Your G4 will not run iCloud. There will be no upgrade from Mobile Me to iCloud for you with that machine unless you do it manually, and only mail will work without further expenditure.

  • CRM 5.0 IC Webclient Issue - Upgrading OS to Windows Vista and I.E 7.0

    Dear Gurus,
    I'm supporting CRM 5.0 and right now, users are running the IC
    Webclient on Internet Explorer v 6.0. Recently, there has been
    plans to upgrade the OS on users' PC to Windows Vista and it
    comes with I.E 7.0. I checked the Product Availability Matrix on
    SAP and found that there is a patch to cater for I.E 7.0.
    My users are also using CTI function. However,there is no patch for CRM SAP Groupware Connector for IE 7.0.
    Please assist. If CTI cannot function with IE 7.0, my users will
    be stuck with OS Windows XP.

    Dear John,
    Thank you for your reply. I am a newbie in this area. Do bare with me for my inquiries on the subject.
    For my customer's implementation, the ICI interface has been configured to communicate to external communication management software from Nortel.
    I raised such an inquiry because, per my checking on the PAM for CRM 5.0, the information on SAP Groupware Connector is parked under the Web Browser tab. Per my understanding,the Groupware Connector executes message synchronization
    between the CRM server and the Groupware server, in this case, it would be the AMC server.
    I was wondering on:
    1. the impact it would have on the above matter, if patches were to be applied on the server
    2. whether there is a relation between the Group Connector and ICI interface, that would cause an impact on IC Webclient if patches for the browser upgraded is applied to the CRM server. There is no patch available for Groupware Connector for I.E 7.0.
    The patches to be applied are for the following components:
    SAP_ABA     - Cross-Application Component
    SAP_BASIS - SAP Basis Component
    SAP_AP - SAP Application Platform
    SAP_BW - BBPCRM
    Please assist. I'd appreciate your help.
    p/s: Are you using IE 7.0 with CRM? Was the server patch process a challanging one? Hope you can share. TQ

  • I have windows vista  and can open itunes but cannot access store anymore it tries but stops like it's stuck no message comes up .I would be grateful of any help. thankyou

    I have windows vista and can access my itune downloads but when I try to access the store it thinks about it and then stops - the bar is stuck halfway across.  I get no message come up.  Desperate to access the store but am at a loss what to do. I am a novice on the computer so an idiot's guide for me would be welcome.  many thanks, regards Lesley

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • Networking Printers   Windows Vista and Mac

    I have my Mac connected to my home network(wired) and a HP 5550 printer connected to my Mac. I would like to print from my Vista PC to the HP via the network, but it keeps stating that I don't have sufficent permission when using Bonjour for windows. HELP.

    Hello SteveKid. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Have PC with Windows Vista and Belkin N1 Router. Want to replace Belkin with Airport Extreme to use with both PC and MacBook Pro.
    Unless you have additional networking requirements or are having issues with your Belkin router, there is no reason to have to replace it with an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) just to support both Macs and PCs. Your MacBook Pro shouldn't have any difficulties connecting to routers provided by manufacturers other than Apple.
    Do I need to download special software for Windows or is this included on disk that comes with the Airport?
    Software (AirPort Utility) to administer the AEBSn from either a Mac or a PC is included with the installation disc that comes with the base station. The necessary software is already installed on the Mac, but if you intend to administer the AEBSn from the PC, you would need to install it on the PC from the disc or download it directly from Apple's Support site. The other software that comes on the disc is Bonjour for Windows. This allows for easier access to a printer attached to the AEBSn from PCs, but is not mandatory in order to print.
    Printer is HP Photosmart C6380 all-in-one ane purports to work wirelessly...so far wired to PC and unable to link to PC wirelessly. That's why Airport Extreme with USB for printer makes sense to me.
    Unfortunately, there is one caveat. The USB port on the AEBSn does not fully support the non-printing features (fax, copy, scan) of all-in-one printers ... just the print function. If these features are important to you, then you may want to look for wireless print server provided by another manufacturer that does support these additional features. I believe Linksys/Cisco still provide these.

  • Windows Vista and Airport Express

    I can connect my Airport Express to my wireless router via an ethernet cable and get up the configuration page - easy!
    Now for the difficult bit!
    I cannot get Airport Admin Utility to recognise the Airport Express (base station in Apple Speak!) when I disconnect from the router.
    Airport Express really sounds a great way to connect ITUNES to remote speakers etc but it is necessary to get it working with Windows Vista and get the wireless function working.Anybody sucessfully done it? Please only respond if you have managed to do this personally!

    William - I am in a similar place.... I have an airport express running as an extension to my home wireless network. I have a TC that I use as my router. My macs can connect to my network (of course) but the windows vista laptop (sony vaio) does not...... HELP! Have you been able to get any answers??
