Updated to 1.1.1 now iPod not recognized

Hi, I just updated to 1.1.1 today and all was well and I was happy enough with it. I've just went to plug my iPod in again and nothing happens. The back light comes on but the main menu stays there, it doesn't show in itunes or my computer. Annoying as ****, any suggestions?

I have an iMac G5 and my iPod 160 keeps rebooting itself and is not recognized by the computer. - Anyone find anything new or did anyone already go to the Genius bar?
Does it reboot itself over and over only while connected, or all the time?
If it's all the time ...
Leave it alone and let it fully discharge the battery, then manually put it in disk mode, run the Mac version of ChkDsk (not sure what it is), and then do a restore.

  • Have windows 8.1. Updated to the latest itunes. now will not recognize my iPod or iPhone

    I recently purchased a new labtop a few weeks ago and it came installed with windows 8.  I updated the next day to windows 8.1. I then installed itunes and my iPod 5th generation and iPhone 5 were working fine. I then updated to the latest itunes. When I plugged my iPod in, I received a message that my iPod was detected on windows but could not be identified properly. The same thing applies to my iPhone 5. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 3 times, restarted my labtop several times. I have followed most of the advice on these forums and I'm stuck. Nothing is happening. If i plug in my ipod, nothing. If i plug in my iphone nothing.  Please help me

    Hello there, jlynn84.

  • My ipod not recognized by the computer or itunes?

    Ok, the iPod works fine playing music and watching videos and everything else it is supposed to, and it charges fine. But when i plug it up my PC to sync new music, the screen on the iPod does like normal and goes to the gray and orangeish screen that says Connected, then immediately says Disconnecting iPod and shows the little progress bar as if you had ejected it. How can it do this on it's own before anything has recognized it?
    I have done everything that the Support on here has said, the 5 r's and all that, and nothing. Checked device manager on my computer and it actually says that is is plugged up and recognized, but has a yellow exclamation point beside it. The properties of it says this error...
    "Windows cannot use this hardware device because it has been prepared for "safe removal", but it has not been removed from the computer. (Code 47)"
    These errors occurred two days again until now, i have made no recent updates on my computer or iPod to have damaged anything but these problems randomly occur. it's really odd and if someone could help me it would be great.

    Have you carefully worked through each and every suggestion in this Apple support document?

  • Ipod not recognized anymore

    My old laptop used to recognize my ipod using usb but only when it was fully charged and even then it would only recognize it some of the time. It also wouldn't ever charge through my computer and the ipod updater never worked. Eventually, that computer stopped recognizing it all together and I didn't even get the do not disconnect screen. In the meantime, I picked up a new laptop thinking maybe I had bad usb connections but I still have the same problem. I have lost all of my music files off of Itunes (due to my own fault of reinstalling windows without backing up my files thinking that might fix) but still have them on my ipod. Is there any way to back up my ipod and how do I restore it (or back it up) when it isn't recognized my my PC? I have tried new cables etc. and am convinced the problem is with my ipod. Any ideas?

  • Ipod not recognized by itunes, why?

    I got a new Ipod and it is not recognized by Itunes. I have reinstalled itunes. I have tried to reset the ipod. It also does not show up on Windows Explorer. I tried changing things in the MSCONFIG file and it still did not work. The USB ports work and I have checked that by plugging in an external HD. Any suggestions?

    Hello Judy,
    It's impossible to sync your iPod if it is not being recognized in iTunes.  I found a few resources that I think will help with this issue. 
    I recommend starting with the steps in this tutorial:

    If you are still getting the same error code after following those steps, I recommend the following article (you can skip any steps you have already taken):
