When I plug my iPod into the computer, itunes won't come up on the screen and my iPod is not recognized anymore and it use to be. Please help because I can't sync it at all because it won't show up as a device on the right hand side of itunes.
Try
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?
It depends on what iPhone you have.
If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.

HT1420 itunes won't let me syn my iphone and transfer

De-Authorize all then re-authorize the active ones. Bear in mind that you can only de-authorize all once every 12 months.

Deauthorizing iTunes on a computer? My laptop won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I'm authorized on too many computers, but when I try to de-authorize another computer I use it won't let me. What's up?
What do you mean it won't let you? What exactly does it say? (Sorry to sound so exasperated but this is like the 6th post in a row where people have made vague statements which do little to help us find solutions without a game of 20 questions.) I'm going to guess and say you can only deauthorize a computer to which you have physical access or VPN login. The alternative is to deauthorize all which you can only do once a year.

I am getting a 42404 error message when opening itunes and itunes will not let me connect my iphone to it trying to get me to restore. I need help? I am not that technically inclined and really simple terms are appreciated.
Try downloading the songs from a different device. If you are doing it from your iOS device, try form your computer.

My HDD crashed in my old PC and I built a new system. iTunes won't let me sync the music from my iPod back into the new version of iTunes I had to download. How do I fix?
Syncing music via iTunes is only one way: from iTunes to your iPod. If you need to copy the music from your iPod back to your PC, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to do this.

I've started plugging my iPhone into a different computer at work that is authorized. But the iTunes on this computer won't allow me to edit the playlists. What do I need to change?
If you're running Windows 8.1, this seems to be a common theme, or some variation there of at least. Myself, I can't even back-up on my iPhone 4S which has iOS 7.1.2 and I'm running iTunes 11.3.0.54 and have resorted to purchased the iTunes Match service to ensure that music on my primary desktop PC (which is paired to my iPhone) will be available on both the iPhone and my Windows 8.1 laptop. Regarding backing up of the iPhone, I'm thinking about going to a third party solution until either Apple and/or Microsoft can figure out why Windows 8.1 is having so many problems with the current version of iTunes (as of this writing 11.3.0.54).

How do I unlock an iPhone that has had an invalid password entered too many times?
Apples' dbase says to do a restone from iTunes, but iTunes won't connect to the phone while it's locked without a passwordOpen iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. This usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Restore the firmware.

Unfortunatly my friend was being stupid and stole my iPhone and put a passcode of it, but he made it a random code that he doesn't know himself. I tried to sync it with iTunes but since I never synced it with that computer it won't give me acess to anything, the computer I origanally sync it to was wipped and got restated from scratch. I never had the need to sync it to it again so I never did (Which I'm now really regreating.)
So is there a way I can get back into my phone again? (And if there is how do I do it? and will it erase everything on it?)
Thanks so much for your helpLOST PASSCODE
You may be able to reset the passcode by restoring the device.
Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
Note: If iTunes prompts you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes", below.
Right-click the device in the left column and select Back up.
When the backup is complete, select Restore.
When finished, restore from your most recent backup.
Otherwise read this
If that doesn’t work you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it. Or read:
Enter Wrong passcode

I got locked out from my iPad mini during my initial setup. Keep ask me for passcode but I haven't setup one. Reboot and restart didn't solve the problem, tried connect to iTunes but it won't let me because it requires the passcode. Tried my Exchanged password, Apple ID password and my iPhone passcode but none work. Any idea to resolve this?
Try and force your iPad into Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. -
ITunes won't let me connect to music store
Yesterday I opened iTunes and a window popped up saying something about my iTunes library was damaged. Then all my playlists vanished, along with about 2/3 of the music. I went ahead and uninstalled iTunes 7.0.0 and reinstalled iTunes 7.0.2 and reimported my library. Since reinstalling 7.0.2, iTunes won't connect to the music store. I get a message saying "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
Of course, I can get online just opening a webpage. ran a diagnostics and it says a network connection could not be made. I clicked on the help tab and tried to empty the cache, and the dos window had the message: could not flush the DNS resolver cache: Function failed during execution.
I have done all that I know how to do. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks!iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. The network
connection was refused. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connections active, then try

HT1420 iTunes won't let me synch my iphone or ipad to my comuter
iTunes will not let me synch my iPad or iPhone with this computer because it states it cannot be authorized. When I try to authorize it iTunes says that I already have computers authorized. But when I go in to my account it syays that only 4 computers are authorized and that this computer is one that is already authorized. How do I fix this please?
3194 error is often due to Apple being blocked from signing and verifying your firmware through iTunes. Check on your computer by searching for "Hosts". Open your Hosts file with a Word Processing Program. If your Hosts file contains any lines with gs.apple.com, they have to be removed, the entire line with the numbers too. If you do not have gs.apple.com then this is not the problem. A normal Hosts file will not have gs.apple.com in it.
