What to do when my iPod does not recognize the songs and then when connected on PC, it crashes iTunes?

Well, it all begin when I finished synching my iPod (classic 120gb) and ejected it through the iTunes. After that, I turned it on, but then it said that the iPod had no music in it. I found that strange, so I reconnected it on the PC (Windows 7), but the iTunes crashed as soon as the iPod os connected and I found that all the songs were inside the iPod (saw the files using the explorer). What can I do now to normalize it?

Try moving the existing backup file to a save location and try again. It is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

I just got an iPod touch 4th generation. When I plug the USB into the computer, the iPod does not recognize the charge and the computer/iTunes doesn't recognize the iPod. Please help.

The computer I am referring to is a Windows. However, when I use the same USB cord and plug it into a MacBook Pro, the ipod is recognized and the ipod recognizes the computer. Also, it gets charge from the Wall outlet as well.

empire_of_the_sun, the link you provided ois for other model iPods, not the iPod touch. You article refers you to:
If you have an iPod touch, see iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.

Hey Stan1958,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPod nano and iTunes. Based on your symptoms, you may find the following resources helpful in resolving this issue:
Windows
iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iTunes reports that "iTunes cannot recognize this iPod at this time"
Thanks,

Hi, we have a G5 Blade server running OS X 10.5.8 with a dual Fibre Channel card. The OS does not read the card and cannot establish connection to the RAID controller. I have tried to move the card to another port with no luck. Ran all the updated softwar

Hi,
Was the card previously working in that machine? If it was and you have a G5 tower you could try the card in there. Here is a list of Apple fibre cards and cables which show what's compatible with what. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1769
The card should appear in the System Profiler under Fibre Channel and PCI Cards.

Windows 7 in bootcamp does not recognize the wifi and usb

i have just made the bootcamp with Win7. it does not recognize the wireless driver and the high resoltion screen.
plus every time i have set the right click of trackpad.
could any one help me in solving this issue?
is there any way to upgrade the bootcamp driver from 3.0 to 3.3 without passing through 3.1 and 3.2?

You might wan't to ask in the Boot Camp forum where the Boot Camp gurus hang out.

It sounds like you have not yet completed the Windows installation process by installing the Windows drivers.

Project View does not show the Path and Filename when errors occur

I have the problem, that errors occur in the project but in the colum that shows the "Resource" I can only see the "Project Name". Normally it should show the filename. The "Path Column" is completely empty. The "Location column" shows the correct line number in the file (but unfortunately I have no Idea which file). Double clicking on the row does not do anything.
I'm sure it had worked, but no idea since when this problem occurs. I am using Flash Builder 4.7.

I was able to resolve this by repairing permissions, even though no permissions error was listed specifically for that file.
I could also have recovered it through Time Machine, but I'm interested in knowing how not to have this happen again!
I was afraid of rebooting and possibly losing track even of the ghost.
I did not try EasyFind - I'll keep that in mind next time.
Thanks for all the comments.

HT4623 After this last update my music does not recognize my songs and my yahoo acct does not load, what's the deal?

I just got my yahoo mail working, however my music app is not recognizing my songs except for the one I downloaded after buying my iPhone 5. What is the deal?

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
Audiobooks (and ringtones) are currently a one-time only download. I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them who are requiring the one-time only download restriction. To get it onto your other devices you will need to sync it via a computer. Depending upon what country that you are in, Audible.com have their own app (Audiobooks from Audible) so you might be able to buy direct from them, though I don't know whether you can buy within their app or download audiobooks directly from them within the app e.g. whether they need to be copied via a computer.

ITunes does not recognize the iPhone and hang often

Hello,
I am an owner of an iPhone 3GS and am very happy with this device.
However, I still had some problems with the synchronization, since iTunes very often depended on when you connect iPhone and the device was detected only after several cold starts.
Today I found a very simple solution that does not appear to help on your support pages.
I changed the USB setting in the BIOS and the problem appears not to since then.
I have at changed at
Advanced --->>> USB Configuration --->>> Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB Support Enabled was --->>> Enabled
Now, Legacy USB Support is --->>> Auto
I think it would be helpful for your support and their clients, where such a reference would be included on the help pages.
Sorry my english isnt good
Best regards from sunshinig Germany

Hallo,
ich bin seit kurzem Besitzer eines iPhones 3GS und bin sehr zufrieden mit diesem Gerät.
Jedoch hatte ich bis heute einige Probleme mit der Synchronisation, da iTunes sehr oft beim Verbinden vom iPhone hing und das Gerät nur nach einigen Kaltstarts erkannt wurde.
Heute habe ich eine sehr simple Lösung gefunden, die nicht in der Hilfe auf Ihren Supportseiten aufgeführt wird.
Ich habe im BIOS die USB-Einstellung geändert und das Problem taucht seitdem nicht mehr auf.
Geändert habe ich bei
Advanced --->>> USB Configuration --->>> Legacy USB Support
Legacy USB Support war --->>> Enabled
Nun ist Legacy USB Support --->>> Auto
Ich denke, daß es für Ihren Support und ihre Kunden hilfreich wäre, wenn dieser Hinweis auf den Hilfeseiten mit eingebunden würde.

HT4527 How can I get me songs from my iTouch to my new iPhone? iTunes does not recognize the songs that I got from my own CD collection. My laptop is not a Mac so senuti does not work.

I have an iTouch with songs that are on there from my CDs as well as purchased songs from iTunes. Currently my iTouch plays all of my music. When I went to sync my new iPhone4S using my PC (Windows with latest upgrade), it only will sync songs I purchases from iTunes. It appears all of the music on iTunes that I put there from my CDs have an ! next to them, and they will not sync to my new phone. How can I get my iTunes account to recognize my CDs as legal muisc that I can put on my iPhone? I do not want to reload all 1,600 songs from my CD collection.

Songs with an exclamation mark against them are songs that iTunes can't find. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the files, or that the drive the live on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

Google map does not recognize the latitude and longitude income them manually or by SMS

Have you contacted Google?

well, I followed your instructions in my cell xperia z1 and the problem persists. Google reports that the application Google Maps for mobile is the same for different operating systems such as Android, IOS, windows movile. After that, We test again with other cells and we can see the map correctly in all of them, but not in sony xperia z1 because the problem persist, I suggest that you review this issue with your technical area and we will be waiting for your comments Regards,Francisco

What should I do if my music won't play? When I press it it shows the song and then goes back to the menu.

Please help.

Try to Reset your device.
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off that shows up first).

My iphone 5 is frozen on the screen that shows a cable and itunes symbol. I can not get the phone to enter DFU mode and itunes does not recognize the phone when plugged in to itunes. The phone was mid update when it was disrupted....

I plugged my iphone in to do an update and it was mid way through the update when the phone was accidentally disconnected. Now the phone is stuck on the screen that shows a cable and the iTunes image suggesting the phone needs to be plugged in to iTunes. I have plugged it in, powered on and off, attempted to enter DFU mode numerous times all with no success. ITunes does not recognize the phone and I continue to only receive the screen saying I need to plug in to iTunes.. Please help!

Hold Sleep Button with Home Button toghether until it restarts Always it takes 8 to 15 seconds, after it restarts leave the sleep button and remember do not leave the home button it automaticlly switches to DFU mode.

Macbook does not recognize external USB drive - except when booting with CD

Hi all,
I recently swapped my Macbook's internal HD (Toshiba 100gb 5400 rpm) into an external USB enclosure (Eagle Consus). The computer does not recognize the external HD, even when using two USB cables for extra power. No luck with safe mode or resetting PRAM. Disk utility just hangs with spinning wheel if I start it. Switching the USB ports does not help.
I thought it might be a power problem until I noted the following:
1)The external drive works fine if I boot the Macbook from the Mac OS install CD... with this I can run disk utility and scan the drive with no problem
2)It works fine on an old Mac Mini with only ONE of the USB connectors plugged in
3)The enclosure worked fine on the Macbook when I had the new drive in it (320 GB 7200 RPM) while copying the files over
Any thoughts?
Many thanks,
--T

It is actually using a power supply, yet it will not actually power on unless it is connected to a computer's USB port. At least this is how it works on my old desktop running Windows 2000. When you disconnect the drive from Windows, or put the machine in hibernate mode, the device actually shuts down. It powers back up once the machine wakes up from hibernate mode.
It's a somewhat older device which predates the Macbook Pro, but it claims to support older Mac, such as the G3, G4, G5, iMac, iBook. OSX 10.0.4. So perhaps it's just too old?
It's a Buffalo HD-HB250U2 (250 GB).
So you're in Japan too?

Adobe Reader 10.1.3 does not recognize the windows vista installed printer

I am using the latest version of Adobe Reader. When I print I get a message box that says you must install a printer driver. I have a printer installed in Windows Vista Home Premium that works ok with all other programs. Any ideas?

All updates applied to ver 10.1.10. Same problem - does not recognize the network printer. When I first installed this version and the Software License Agreement displayed it allowed me to access the printer dialog and print the form. When I open a pdf document after this it does not recognize that there isa printer installed. Any ideas??? This is getting vdery frustating. The only good news is that foxit works.
