Used wrong usb cable with iPod
I accidentally used the usb cable from my iPhone 4 to connect my iPod to my MacBook running OS10.7.5. The iPod display says Do Not Disconnect, but the iPod never showed up in iTunes or on the desktop. I shut down the computer and restarted. IPod still says Do Not Disconnect and still is a no-show in iTunes/desktop. I tried to reset by holding the center button and the Menu button at the same time. No luck. Tried plugging into usb charger, also no luck. Obviously, I had to disconnect to do that. I also tried connecting to iPod port in my car, but it said Loading Error. Have i fried the iPod? Or can it be resuscitated?
Thanks!
Thats ok, glad its all up and running ok now. Have you had any problems syncing your i pod with the new version of i tunes ??. my i phone is ok, but the i pod will not sync some of my music videos to the i pod. Another person on here has the same problem, he seems to think its the new version of i tunes being the problem. Iam not sure.. phil..

Different USB cable with iPod Touch 3G?
I'm confused about the issues with some chargers and cables not working with my iPod Touch 3G that did work with my iPod Video 5G. For example, my car charger no longer works - something about it "doesn't work with this device". I have read something about the pins in the USB part being used differently... I don't really need to understand as much as I need to be sure if I need to get another cable like came with my Touch 3G, or can I safely continue to use other Apple sync/charge cables from previously owned iPods. I started using a retractable cable (not Apple) and weird things happened so I won't use it anymore (it also worked with my iPod video with no problem).
Even the cable on the Apple store page does not say it's compatible with the Touch 3G. I'm afraid to use any but the one that came with my Touch!The only cables that won't work are the ones from the original iPods that were Firewire. All USB iPod cables should work.
Your car charger doesn't work because it probably cannot supply enough power (500 mA required). So not really a cable issue but the charger itself. -

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either. This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed. How can I get it going again?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a brand new Ipod touch with front facing camera. Not sure which generation it is. My wife connected the iPod Touch and chose the restore option when connecting to iTunes. It was a mistake and by the time I got there, I saw the screen with USB cable with an arrow facing towards iTunes logo. I cannot get the iPod out of this state.
Try here:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Also reset the iPod.
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. -

My Ipod touch is frozen. The screen shows only USB cable with arrow point to the word Itunes. What is the problem? This is the second touch I have had that has this same problem. HELP!
This time try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod instead of from backup. You may have some corruption that is causing the problem and it may now be in the backup. If the problem persists after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod. then you likely have a hardware problem and ana ppointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I'm in iPhone 5. I transfer photos to a Windows 7 PC, using the USB cable. Lately, the photos are appearing in Windows Explorer within monthly folders, with gibberish titles. The folder names will be 8 random letters and numeric characters. I tend to let photos build up, so there are about 2 years worth of these monthly folders… Between 20 and 25. This is a huge hassle… I'm unable to tell what months are in each folder, by the folder name.… Have to open each folder to see which month is in there. I want to be able to look at all the photos on the iPhone in one view, as I was able to in the past. How do I stop this foldering of photos, by months?? Thank you. BC
I have the same issue. I searched and finally got only one answer is -- Apple suggest customer using iMAC to transfer and backup photos instead of Windows. How great the solution is it!

I have take pictures from my ipad 4. How to download to my computer with windows operating system conneted through USB cable with out using internet
Plug your iPad into your computer. THere may be a delay while it installs drivers but if you can see your iPad in windows explorer, use that to get to your photos.
Click on your iPad and you should see a DCIM folder. Click thorugh that to find your photos.
Windows explorer will see your iPad as nothing more than a digital camera, and that's the part you're trying to access. -
I have 3 Dell laptops at home and I am unable to connect my iPad 1 to any of them using the USB cable. If I connect the iPad to any Apple computer using the same USB cable, it works perfectly. I have installed the latest versions of iTunes and iOS, but still no luck. Apple Store Geniuses helped me determine that it wasn't my iPad causing the problem, but were less helpful when it came to dealing with non-Apple devices.
Options?Does the OS see the iPad at all? In other words does it show up in either the My Computer or Device Manager?
I've had problems in the past where I had to modify the registry to get my son's iPod to sync with a particular HP laptop.
If it doesn't show up at all have your tried using an external hub (with or without power)? -
I'm new to this and I think I typed a long heading!
Anyway the issue is I have iTunes and just updated it to the latest. I also have various Apple devices however my iPhone won't sync with iTunes. When I connect it using the USB cable it does not appear in the top right corner as does other devices. The cable is fine as it charges and also my PC sees the device. However it does not appear in iTunes so I can't sync music to it.
I've searched the web but all asume iTunes can see the device.
