TS1410 iPod has stopped showing up on Mac in Finder or desktop and iTunes.

cord is connected. I rebooted. it shows up in disk utility. have had this iPod for 5 years, no problem. not sure what changed. Worked 2 days ago.
suggestions welcome. thanks.

Like the iPhone, I don't think the iPod touch has an "Enable disk use" mode. So it will not appear in Finder or on the Desktop.

My Windows synched ipod has stopped mounting on my Mac

I know variants of this topic have already been posted so I apologise for that but this problem is a bit different.
I have a windows synched 20GB ipod photo. I was pulling off my ipod files to my G4 powerbook using (ahem) ipod rip when i accidentally unplugged my ipod halfway through.
Ever since then, when i connect my ipod to my powerbook through USB, it appears as a hard drive and in itunes for about 20 seconds and then disappears, and the do not disconnect symbol on my ipod goes and returns to normal.
my question is, how do i get my ipod to stay mounted to my powerbook so i can actually do stuff with it? I have already tried re-setting which didn't work. Is it a question of restoring my ipod? and if so, would i have to do this on my PC? any help would be much appreciated as all i want to do is synch my ipod with my shiny powerbook and not my horrible PC!

It may give you a surprise answer. Try to do a Restore with a PC, once it has been completed, connect it back with your Mac (you may need to put it into disk mode if it cant mount with your Mac), then
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”

IPod has stopped showing videos

I downloaded a new TV show to my iTunes account and plugged in my iPod to transfer the file. Unfortunately, my daughter shut off the computer before the transfer was complete (the "Do Not Disconnect" icon was still flashing).
Now when I try to view any video on my iPod, the machine vibrates, shows the volume indicator, and the "play" arrow in the upper left-hand corner for about 10 seconds. Then it defaults back to the TV Show menu.
The screen displays all menus perfectly. I've tried reloading the iTunes and iPod software, but that hasn't helped. Any insights are welcome!

I would try to Restore your iPod and then sync all of your content back onto it.

currently ive reset it - nothing has happened
ive let the battery drain itself then recharged it to see if that would make a difference - no difference
Help ASAP needed

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If your iPod is with in the one-year warrranty, not abused and defective Apple will replace it.

Ipod has stopped putting songs into the recently played list, Any ideas Y?

My ipod has stopped counting songs and also now wont put any songs into the recently played playlist and its really annoying- Any ideas on how i can sort this out? I've reset the ipod which has done nothing and i have also updated itunes but again to no avail- Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I am also having this (or a similar) problem. For years I had an Auto Playlist of Podcasts with "Play Count is Zero"/Live updating rules so they were removed each time I synced my iPod after I listened to them. Recently, the Playlist has stopped updating. That is, the podcasts stay in the playlist because the play counts never update. They show in the podcast library with 0 plays no matter how many times I play them on my iPod.
I also noticed that none of songs I play have their playcounts updated in the Library after I play them on my iPod. All the syncing seems to be going one way (from the PC to the iPod and not the other way around). I picked a song with a playcount of 1 and it over and over just to test it out and no dice/no update.
Any clues? Is there a setting I am missing? I tried resetting the iPod.... And the iPod played tunes/casts are also not appearing in the Recently Played list....

Hi pgarard1,
If you are having issues with launching iTunes after an update, you may want to take a look at the troubleshooting in the following article:

[SOLVED] urxvt has stopped showing accents

Hello,
Quite suddenly (to me) urxvt has stopped showing á, é, í, ñ and the like. They worked yesterday, and they still work in console and xterm -- the latter uses a different font, but the former does not.
The relevant section of .Xresources:
URxvt.font: -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
URxvt.boldFont: -*-terminus-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
and the whole /etc/vconsole.conf:
KEYMAP="es"
FONT=ter-114n
#FONT_MAP=8859-1_to_uni
FONT_MAP=8859-1
Is anyone seeing anything strange? The only relevant change I can think of is that I have removed initscripts. I've been using systemd for some weeks and (I thought) the package was just there sitting idly. Maybe it wasn't.

I'm also experiencing this after the switch to systemd.
~/.Xdefaults
urxvt*boldFont: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1
urxvt*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1
/etc/vconsole.conf
KEYMAP=br-abnt2.map.gz
FONT=
FONT_MAP=
Maybe this has something to do with locale settings?
/etc/locale.conf
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Ipod has stopped

My ipod has recently been freezing up. I would reset it and then have to set up my playlists again. Now it just will not turn on. I've tried resetting it but the sick Ipod just keeps showing up on the screen. How can I turn my ipod back on?

Hi Tamara
Try this...
Drain your battery right down, and then let it charge right back up.
Then Hold down SELECT and MENU at the same time to reset the iPod; immediately after the screen goes dark, switch to holding down SELECT and PLAY/PAUSE. Keep pressing for ten seconds or so to be sure; the screen should remain dark. You may have to do this a few times...

My photoshop Elements 11 has stopped working on my mac. I bought it via download in December 2012 - how do I get this to reinstall? There doesn't seem to be a place to do this on MyAdobe......

Lightroom has stopped showing thumbnails on Import. How do I get my previews back?

My Lightroom (5.3) has stopped showing previews on Import. I can still see older Imports in Library but my latest Imports are just grey boxes. I can open the boxes in Develop and these stay as previews for up to 3 thumbnails in Library before disappearing again. I have tried reinstalling Lightroom 5. I have checked my sRGB. It is the same problem with different cards and different external drives.
How can I get my Library to show Preview thumbnails once more? Thanks, Angus

Could it be that the Camera Software is installed and it got Updated?
-Sometimes it happens that the "autoplay" uses the Codec for recognizing the files, and When Lightroom tries to do the same the files are in use, so it can not generate Previews/Thumbnails.
Do you get the same result if you Try to Import from Safe Boot?
- It could be that there is some software installed that now also manages during startup, also preventing Lightroom to Generate the Previews.
Have you tested with a new Catalog, do you get the same behavior there?
Also it might be far fetched, but incase you haven't seen it it might help you on the issue:

Hopefully this will help to resolve the issue.

My Macbook has stopped showing alternatives for vowels. What to do?

My MacBook has stopped showing alternate vowels when I hold down the key. I frequently need to use German words, so this is a problem. Did I somehow turn this feature off? What can I do to get them back?

Tried that before I posted my original question. It didn't do anything. I honestly don't have a clue what happened.It's always worked before, then all of a sudden it won't, and I didn't do anything to the controls programs before it started doing it.

Have you tried a different computer? Wall charger?
Try:
- Resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restoring the iPod from backup
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
