TS1538 my ipod touch 4g isn't being recognized by the computer nor Itunes.

My ipod touch 4g isn't being recognized by the computer nor itunes. I didn't charge my ipod for about a week and then I bought a new usb cord and since then my ipod won't be recongnized. I've tried everything and nothing seems to work. My ipod still charges on the computer. Please help!!!!

Did you try everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Next try another computer.

  • My refurbished iPod touch 4g isn't being recognized on my computer

    I just bought a refurbished iPod touch 4th Generation from the Apple store and it shipped yesterday. When I tried syncing it with iTunes this morning, it was not even being recognized by my PC. My computer recognized it as first and said everything was installed, but when I went to sync it to iTunes it said it was unable to sync so I unplugged it and now not even the computer is recognizing it. The iPod just says it's charging when plugged in and computer does not say i have anything plugged in.

    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    I would start with
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Make sure the computer has iTunes version 10.7 installed.

  • New IPod Touch 4th Gen isn't being recognized by my computer or itunes.

    I got a new IPod Touch yesterday and I am finally getting the time to sit down and set everything up and when I plugged it in it makes the charging sound but itunes is not finding it and neither is my computer. I've been messing with it for hours now and at one point my computer thought the IPod was a camera. I've tried updating itunes to the newest version, uninstaling/reinstaling the drivers, even tried updating the IPod to iOS 6 thinking that might help but still nothing. What am I missing?

    You need iTunes 10.7

  • IPod nano gen 6 is not recognized in my computer nor iTunes, but it is recognized in other computers and iTunes

    Neither my computer nor iTunes recognize my new nano. I've tried the troubleshooting suggestions on this site. I've reinstalled iTunes many times. Every now and then I could reset the nano and iTunes would state it needs to "prepare to restore" it. I've even left it connected overnight hoping the process will complete. Nothing worked. However, I tried connecting it to my friend's computer, and both the computer and iTunes recognize the nano. I tried it again at home, but neither my computer nor iTunes recognize it. Please help!

    I'm having this issue as well.  I updgrade my CPU to one with Windows 8.  At soon as I connect my iPod Classic, it connect momentarily & then immediately eject it.

  • My iPod isn't being recognized by the computer.

    I've had my classic since this past christmas (it's the new 120g), and last week, everything got wiped off of my iPod. I'm not sure what happened exactly. I restored it on my computer, and re-synced it. Ever since then, my iPod has been showing the big red X at least once a day. Sometimes I can restart it a couple of times, and it will be fine. Today it happened, and no matter how many times I reset it, it still shows the X. I have it plugged into my computer, but the computer doesn't recognize it. It doesn't show up on My Computer or iTunes or anything. I have no idea how to restore it or what do now. I've tried using the "contact the experts" thing online, but when I plug in the serial number for a classic (8M8398FV2C5), it tells me that the number is invalid. That's the number on the back of my iPod and when I plug that number in the search bar, it comes up with a classic.
    Please help me, my iPod is my baby.

  • Purchased on iPod touch. How to get song on the computer into iTunes?

    I downloaded a song on my iPod touch using the iTunes access. Now I have my iPod touch connected to my computer and trying to restore it. However, when I click restore it says I have purchases on my iPod that aren't in the library yet. I thought yes, I know. So I went on iTunes to the file tab and clicked the transfer from iPod touch. However, nothing happened. How can I get the purchased song on my iPod onto my computer?

    Right click on the iPod in the sources list in iTunes and select the Transfer Purchases option.

  • Purchases made on my ipod touch are no longer being transferred to the Mac...but yet they are showing up in "grey" in the purchased list on the Mac.  Any clues as to what is going on?

    What used to work just fine, is no longer working...
    Within the last 2 days, song purchases that were made on my ipod Touch are no longer being transferred when the ipod synchs up.  The strange thing is that the songs appear in iTunes --> Store -- Purchased list, but are greyed out.  They play just fine on the ipod...but aren't making it back to the Mac.
    I have tried right clicking on the ipod when it appears in iTunes and selecting "Transfer purchases", but that doesn't seem to work either.
    Any clues as to what is going on?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    One other very important piece of information I forgot to include...the purchases were made prior the iOS update.  So the sequence of events went like this:
    1) ipod Touch with previous iOS (4.0 I think)
    2) purchases made
    3) ipod connected and iTunes prompts for iOS update
    4) iOS upgraded to 5.0
    5) Now the purchases seem to be stranded on the ipod Touch
    Thanks!

    make sure you have itunes installed on that computer. itunes comes with the essential ios drivers which are needed in order for your computer to recognize your iphone.

    Did you try using another usb port? my hardrive has two maybe yours does. And if you have a game console, some of those have usb ports so plug your ipod in there and see if that reconizes it.
