TS1425 itunes software locks up when I plug in ipod and it does not sync or appear in software?
iTune Software locks up when I connect my iPod Classic and it does not recognize iPod is connected and does not sync musice as it use to. Looking for ideas to try. Running updated iTune software and have reset iPod?
Try:
- 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
It also could be due to a defective Lightning cable. Other uses have had problems with the cable.

When i plug my iPod in, it does not recognize it...HELP
When i plug my iPod Nano 2nd Generation in to anything-AC adaptor or computer- it starts charging, then all of a sudden stops charging after about two seconds. When I plug it in to my computer, iTunes doesn't pop up like is used to. This started after i tried to use my sister's cable on it (It fit, but now it doesn't work with either). Please, if you have any suggestions, help. I've tried to reset it and everything.
Check these out:
iPod in My Computer but not iTunes
iPod Not in My Computer or iTunes
Check the Device Manager
I hope this helps! -
I have just updated to itunes 11 and when I plugged in my ipod classic it locked up. When I tried again it said my ipod was corrupt and advised I reset it. I reluctantly did this as I lost all my music and now itunes just locks up when I plug in my ipod.
Not if you first do a sync and have iTunes make a backup. However, if your only copy of the iTunes data is in the Touch, then you need to first copy the data to a new iTunes Library using third-party software such as Phone To Mac.

on my phone it has a itunes (on top) with a cord plug under it and phone will not turn on. How do I restart phone??
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

When I enter an appt on my ipod touch it does not sync back to ical. Only those appts I enter on ical sync to my ipod touch. Anyone have a remedy for this?
You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

Obviously not too smart with all this technology. I puchased a Blackberry Playbook Tablet and wanted to sync my itunes music, so following directions on the Playbook, I downloaded this app - Daniel Bingham Itunes sync - and when I went to my pc, I pulled it up, plugged in my Playbook and it did sync all my music from my Itunes library to the Playbook. However, now when I plug an ipod in my pc to charge or sync more music, my pc is not showing it recognizes any of my ipods being plugged in. It makes no mention of any of my ipods being connected! I also keep getting this "Found New Hardware Wizard" box that keeps popping up everytime I plug an ipod in - it originally showed up when I had Playbook plugged in to download all its info (I think) but it never completes, saying not compatible - so I click cancel. I have since clicked on remove New found hardware but it still pops up. Why does it continue to show with every Ipod now? Any idea on what I can do to repair this situation? Please help!

my computer hard drive died rather suddenly so i had no chance to do a back up or any thing. i put itunes on my new computer and got my purchased music but my ipod will not sync and i cannot get my playlists onto the computer. is there any way to get my playlists on my new computer and also get my ipod to sync. it is a waste of time to purchase new music and i do not want to purchase a new ipod since i have so much memory left on this one.
Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
Thanks to all. -

I have an IPOD Tough and a MAC. When I plug my IPOD into the MAC, no IPOD device icon appears on the MAC. Additionally when I go to Itunes, there is no IPOD device listed. How can I get the MAC to recognize the IPOD?

My ipod gen 2 does not sync with the latest itunes
I reset my ipod gen 2 to factory settings and version 4.2.1 will not sync with the latest iTunes.
Are you using the USB docking cable that came with that shuffle (it has a mini-dock at the shuffle end)? The docking cable for the current 4th (and 3rd) gen shuffle fits, but it will not work. The connector is different.
When you say, "does not sync with iTunes," do you mean it does appear in iTunes (in the sidebar under DEVICES) but does not sync, or that it does not appear in iTunes at all? -
Itunes 8.1 crash when I plug my ipod
Since the update, everytime i plug my ipod nano 4th generation. Itunes crashes
Nutnbolt:
We need to get a crash log file to see where it's crashing. In order to get a crash log on Vista, you will need to enable crash logging.
Important: These steps involve making changes to the Windows registry using the Registry Editor (Regedit). Even if you are very comfortable editing the registry, you should make a backup of the registry prior to editing it. Making mistakes in Regedit can cause strange behavior and can even prevent Windows from starting. Look here for instructions on how to back up your registry in Windows Vista:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756
1. Open the Windows Start menu.
2. Type regedit in the search field and click OK.
3. In Registry Editor, navigate to HKEYCURRENTUSER\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes
4. Right-click on the iTunes folder and choose New > DWORD Value.
5. Name the new value "GenerateCrashLogs" without the quotation marks and press Enter.
6. Right-click GenerateCrashLogs and choose Modify.
7. Change Value data from 0 to 1.
8. Click OK.
Now, when iTunes crashes, a crash log file will be created. A message will appear telling you where to find the crash log file. Please email me that file, and make sure to include a link to this thread and the username you are using on Discussions.

How do I get an old library onto a new computer. When I plug in phone all my apps do not show up.
You need to copy the iTunes liubrary from your Old computer, or its Backup, to your New computer...
See Here for one way
iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
Or...
From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
Backup iTunes to an External Drive

An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...
