TS1363 my ipod wont connect to my laptop

when i go to connect my ipod to my laptop it wont connect what should i do to fix it?

Try plugging it in and waiting.  I have noticed that when an iPod's battery is very low, it takes some time for it to appear in iTunes and the Desktop.  Like it must have to have a minimum charge or something.

  • My ipod wont connect to my laptop but it will to others, and other peoples will connect to mine

    I can connect my ipod touch 3rd gen to other laptops, and my car/wall chargers, but it will not connect to my own laptop,
    However other ipods (a4th generation touch) will connect to my laptop and show up in itunes etc.
    What should i do

    - Did you do anything to it before the problem started?
    - Have you tried resetting it:
    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.
    - you could try placing the iPod in recovery mode and the try restoring it.  However, it you computer can't see the iPod there is nothing you can do except restore it on another computer.  It willbe erased.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    Also, if necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • TS1424 My iPod wont connect to the iTunes Store when I am about to buy an app what do I do?

    My iPod wont connect to the iTunes Store when I am about to get an app when I go to enter my password it says it can't connect to iTunes Store. What do I do?

    Don't worry a lot of people, including me, are having this problem.  I think it's a problem going on at Apple's end, hopefully it will be up soon.

    I have the iPod 5th gen. and my iPod wont connect to my wifi. I've tried everything. i rest my wifi networks and it still wont work. What do I do??

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
