Upgraded to windows 7, Ipod shuffle now doesn't work

I recently upgraded to Windows 7 from XP, I can't get the 4th generation Shuffle to work.
The tunes installed on the Ipod won't play and when I run the diagnostics, it says the Ipod is not connected?

Is it still under warranty? Check here:

You might be able to get it replaced... Otherwise, try this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303979

Old ipod shuffle, just doesn't work, is there anything I can do to get it to work?

I have a really old ipod shuffle, like the first one they came out with and I was wondering if there is a way to get it to work. It stopped working a while ago and my son wants one so I thought this would be a great first one for him. If I can get it to work! Please help me!!!

Either way, at best it's likely that the battery is shot and in need or replacement. Sorry.

New ipod shuffle remote doesn't work correctly

I've bought a player today, plugged in to USB port. iTunes proposed me to update to the latest version - I agreed. So I had the lates updates. When I try to increase volume using remote - it doesn't work. When I stop playing by using middle button then try to change volume level it is changed only for one step even if I pressed 20 times.... I think it's BIG bug...
Who knows is it can be fixed or not?
Thank you!

Somebody know solutions for my problem?
I guess, maybe it's problem with i use notebook and usb power has below require? I am angry...

What good is a NEW iPod shuffle that doesn't work?!

Has Apple fixed the problem regarding the shuffles not be a recognized driver?
I cannot believe that a company as huge as Apple, has not problem-solved and found an answer for people who purchased it's product.
I feel very frustrated, and my 3 kids -- all waiting for me to get their iPods working, are annoyed.
Thank you, Apple.

I trashed mine (iGB Shuffle) after many days spent. My shuffle just stop working one day. I tried everything from Apple website suggested 10 times at least. Still no good. I am an Information System professional. I deal with this kind of problems daily. But we all rely on the manufacturer to provide helps. AFter 90 days, you have to pay to be able to 'chat' online with support. I bought new Toshiba Gigabeat. Cheaper and 'IT WORKS'. So return the products and get your money back buy something else. good Luck!!!

Spilled water on my ipod touch, now doesn't work, lost all my information, and now buttons don't preform the correct function...

So somehow water spilled in my backpack and got onto my ipod. I didn't realize this until i got home and plugged my ipod into the computer to see if it would finally turn on. The computer said it couldn't read my ipod and the only thing I could do was restore it. So I lost everything. Pictures, Paid Apps and Music, and I'm really sad and disappointed about that but now i will press the power button to wake my ipod and it will sometimes turn my sound up on headphones? And it says I have headphones plugged in, but I don't. My ipod is just really messed up can someone help me! Its 2nd Generation 8GB!

Do not turn the iPod on anymore untill it is dry. Dry as explained here:

Upgraded to 5.5-- GPU Hack now doesn't work

With Premiere CS5 (Master Suite) the GPU hack outlined here worked great with my NVidia 470M card installed in my Sager 7280. But that changed with the 5.5 Master Suite upgrade. To start with, I was unable-- after 5 tries-- to install 5.5 without getting fail warnings with "Exit Code: 6" messages. In searching around I see I'm far from alone on that count.
I completely uninstalled CS4 & CS5, any/all Adobe apps I could find and ran their Cleanup Tool. Still get errors even though the apps themselves seem to run ok with the 4th install effort.
The procedure outlined on http://www.indiev.org/?p=308 seemed to work fine with CS5, did they change something so that it no longer works with 5.5?? Any insights much appreciated.

Bill,
>> When you uninstalled and reinstalled did you run the cleanup script before you reinstalled?
Yep, I did run the script.
When I updated the graphics driver the person I spoke to at Sager directed me to the latest NVidia driver for the 7282 and that's what I tried. As I recall, there wasn't any update specifically for my 7280. HOWEVER, I went back today and checked and there was a link to an updated driver for the 7280. It's possible it was there before and I didn't notice it but he assured me the other would be the equivalent.
In any event, I'm happy (and relieved) to report that when I downloaded & installed this last driver-- MPE is back and all's well again.
I do appreciate the input.

How do I re-format windows iPod Shuffle 3rd gen to work on Mac?

I Have an iPod shuffle 3rd gen that works perfectly well on a windows laptop, however I want to link it to my MacBook.

Anyone know how to solve this issue?
Thanks!

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.

Help, Windows recognizes ipod but itunes doesn't

ive tried everything that ive seen listed but nothing seems to work. My issue is that Windows recognizes ipod but itunes doesn't. I would really apprecaite it if someone could help me with this issue.

Wow, I'm sorry to hear this is still happening. I had the same problem until this newest version of itunes. The thing that always worked for me earlier was the re-starting of the ipod service. I have nothing else.
Good luck

My IPOD Classic Video 5. Gen. showed videos, but now it does no longer show them, instead i see a black picture on my IPOD and it doesn`t work. I have to restart it every time, i try it. i restore the software with itunes, but the problem still exists.

The Videos are showed up front 4 months, but now they are no longer to be seen. When you star a video first the hard drive starts, but then it stops and hangs up. I have to restart it, starting with the apple logo....

Here is what worked for me:
My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

HT4623 my IPOD is using version 5.1.1 and says it is up to date. One of my apps updated for IOS7 and now doesn't work on my IPOD. What can I do? It is a podcast app that I use every day.

My IPOD touch is using version 5.1.1. and no updates available. I use a podcast app which I listen to every day. The app updated for the new IOS7 and now doesn't work for me any more.

All yo can do is either find a compatible app that works for your 3G iPod (iOS 5.1.1) or purchase a new model iPod.

Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work. The computer seems to get hung. What could be happening?

Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work. The computer seems to get hung during the back up stage. It says it is backing up the ipod but nothing happens, for hours. I eventually have to interrupt it and give up.

I have the latest itunes.
I tried resetting sync history.
For this section:
If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
Click Apply.
This doesn't seem to make sense for my situation. I don't sync anything between outlook and my ipod touch.
I have no other USB devices connected to my computer.
I have no other Windows users on my computer - only me and I am the administrator. However on my diagnostic, it said this user is not the administrator. Weird.
So I have tried to follow that you referred me to, but still I haven't got it working yet. Do you have any further suggestions?

After upgrading from it6 to itunes7 my videos doesn´t work

After upgrading from itunes6 to itunes7 my videos doesn´t work. Theres no error message, no reaction. all the music play like befor, only my vids (quicktime), all!! the vids doesnt work after updating..i hope, that someone could help me..
Many thanks
Cross

hmmmm. let's try checking to see if they will still play in your current version of QuickTime.
in itunes, right-click on one of the videos that is causing the grief, and select "Show in Windows Explorer".
right click the icon of the file in the Explorer window that comes up and select "Open With ...", and try to open it with your QuickTime player. does it play there or do you get funny business with that too?
