Vista doesnt know what an iPod is.

Its worked before, but now my Vista laptop says it cant find the driver for this device, which is my iPod.
I dont know why Vista can't find a driver for my iPod, or why it needs one. It doesnt even reconize it as a Mass USB storage device.
Its just... this thing... thats connected to a USB port, according to Vista.
Help please??

It should provided the movies are in iDevice format and can be loaded into iTunes. Movies are not the same as applications. You need an application to play the movie, but the movie itself is not an application. If a movie isn't correctly formatted they can be changed using third-party software or using Quick Time.

    You can visit this page to find out which model iPod you have. Compare the specs of your iPod to the ones on that page and you'll be right (specs such as HD size, Touch/Click wheel and so forth).

    So, when you are in the window that provides the Equivalent Network Password, you are saying that your WPA Password and the WPA Pre-Shared Key values are the same? That is, you are already using a 64-hex character password? (see image below)

  • HT1824 Since I accidentally clicked on the wrong language, I don't know what my IPOD Nano is telling me to do/not to do.  I'm hitting the home button and nothing is happening.

    Hello,
    Bought a Nano today and trying to set it up.  Selected the wrong language.  I am not sure if I'm getting the "eject before disconnecting message" and I'm not sure what to do next!

    Hello sheri85,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1824
    If you have an iPod nano or Fifth Generation iPod (iPod with video):
    Scroll down to the last menu option but don't select it.
    Scroll up one menu item. This should be Settings.
    Press the Center (Select) button. This takes you to the Settings menu.
    Scroll down to the last menu option but don't select it; in English, this is the "Reset All Settings" option.
    Scroll up to the third menu item from the bottom one. This should be Language.
    Press the Center button to select Language.
    Select your preferred language from the list.
    Have a nice day,

  • HT1212 I can not unlock my sons Ipod, and it does not ask for a code, not that he remembers it now.  It has been locked for monthes, and dont know what to do.  Can you help

    Trying to unlock my sons ipod and he doesnt know what his password was.  It has been disabled for monthes.  Cant get it reset with itunes apple.  And doesnt even ask for a passcode anyways.  It just isnt doing anything.I have beentrying to unlock it for 2 hrs already

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown/shown off, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

You know, I don't know much of computers and of technology but when I bought that ipod back when  they came out 2005 I was able to download music from my CDs and from Youtube to itunes then transfer to my ipod and back and forth to itunes .  Then if I had changed of computer I was able to transfer to that new computer.Why I'm not able to do it ? There is a program(Sharepod) that allow to do that but it cost $35.00 but I thought that was free or it is because that now I have to buy from itunes only?

    Try:

    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot

    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:

    - 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.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
