Why does itunes 7 not work with my ipod!?

I am able to oberlook the fact that whenever i plug my 60 gb ipod colour into a pc it doesnt work, and often messes up the pc.
But why do i now find that when i plug it into my own pc it wont work with itunes 7, when i googled this problem it seemed ALOT of other people have similar problems, if this is true why has nothing been done??? and why did apple even release this version of itunes if it doesnt work?!
Please please please resolve this or tell me a way i can fix it.
I have tried installing older versions of itunes but my ipod just wont work with them, and when i try to restore it it says that my ipod cannot be restored or isnt supported by this application.
I cannot be the only person to think that someone seriously dropped the ball here.
Please help!

I've also tried uninstalling iTunes and everything iPod related - then reinstalled everything...still my iPod will not connect to iTunes. Oh and by-the-way, uninstalling iTunes (suck-eggs) 7.0 and then installing iTunes 6.0 will not work because once you install the SUCK-EGGS version, an older version can not read the libraries and therefore can not open! Who said Apple doesn't create PC-like operational blackholes?!?!? Someone please help! I'm gonna call Apple...I'll keep you posted.

  • Does iTunes 12 work with the iPod Classic ?

    Does iTunes 12 work with the iPod Classic ?
    Or do I need to stay with iTunes 11.4 ?
    Thanks

    Thanks, ( you just got your first 10 points, congratulations! )
    Ever since the iPod Classic was discontinued I have stopped purchasing music on iTunes. So I did not have a compelling reason to upgrade.
    I have heard others having troubles and I got concerned that perhaps Apple had dropped support for the Classic on iTunes 12 because it was discontinued.
    Thanks for helping.

  • ITunes not working with new iPod

    After recently getting a new iPod, I cant get it to work.
    The problem is no tin the iPod, Im sure of that. The problem occurs with any iPod on the system.
    The problem is that when the iPod is plugged in, it recognizes it, but not as an iPod. At first we thought it was because of other USB devices on the computer, and removed them. One of the devices was an external hard drive, which has all of my iTunes music on it. We moved the external drive to a different networked computer, and made it a network folder. That way we can access all of our iTunes music from a different computer.
    That works very well...All of our music can play fine, but the iPod is still not recognized. It says that the firmware on the iPod is corrupt, and asks if we want to restore it. Click yes, and we get error 1418.
    How do we fix this?

    hmmmmm. you're not getting the classical symptoms of the following issue. but since the PC is networked to other drives, we'd better check on the possibility from the following document:
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive or hard drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear

  • Why does Thunderbird not work with Windows 8.1

    I have used thunderbird now for about 6 years, for all my website accounts. During that time I have had very few problems, about 9 months ago I started using Windows 8, I transferred all my accounts from my old machines running on XP pro to new machines running Win 8 and thunderbird ran ok. I have auto updates running so I am assuming both thunderbird and windows are updating whenever! About 4 weeks ago I started experiencing major problems with Thunderbird, it would start then freeze, then it would start again then freeze, if I ran it in safe mode it would work for a while. Now it opens and freezes, the message at the top just says ' Thunderbird is not responding'. Even in safe mode now it will not work! I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, I have even tried installing an earlier version of Thunderbird, I Have deleted the profile and forced it to produce a new one, I have spent hours trawling different sites trying to find an answer, and you know what, the only conclusion I could come to was, nobody seems to care whether this problem is solved or not, so reluctantly I have had to give up and I moved all my accounts to Outlook, which works perfectly with Windows 8.1. I think that should have been the answer, right from the start of the problem!

    The point is, it shouldn't matter if you're using McAffee or Norton or not using any anti-virus at all. Thunderbird works on XP. Thunderbird works on Vista. Thunderbird works on 7. But despite what the FAQ says, Thunderbird does _NOT_ work on Windows 8. This is a problem that many people are having and Mozilla _OUGHT_ to be able to fix it.
    I hate to bitch because Thunderbird is free and it's a damned good program. But this damned good program that worked through three earlier iterations of MicroSoft operating systems is unusable on 8.1. Anybody who has any knowledge of user experience can tell you that a program becoming unresponsive at random for anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes is simply not acceptable.
    This problem has been known for quite some time now. Is anybody in Mozilla support even looking at it?

  • Why does Skype not work with mavericks?

    I recently "upgraded" to Mavericks and find that several of my other applications no longer work...Great "UPGRADE" I think I know why it was offered FREE.

    Check with HP for new software, in the past after an OS upgrade I have had to delete the printer and re add it to get it to work. The upgrade to Mavericks this did not occur but it did when I upgraded to Lion and then Mountain Lion.
    If this does not fix it please start a new thread.

  • Why does coverflow not work with windows 7

    I installed windows 7 on my computer and now my iTunes does not show coverflow. I get a black screen that says "iTunes is unable to browse album covers on this computer."
    I thought a patch would be issued to resolve this, but it's been quite a while and no changes. I use the most up-to-date copy of iTunes.
    Does anyone have a solution?

  • Why does Flash not work with multiple user-accounts on a single PC?

    Running XP-Professional (MediaCenter), SP3 and using IE 8, NIS 2010 (disabled during the installation of FP), 3 different user accounts on a single PC
    As user A (admin) installed FP ver.  10.0.45.2, and it works fine under the admin account, however, when logging-on as user B.  FP is not recognized (?) and user B is asked to intall FP agian, however, the installation fails.
    After removing the FP installation (as being user A) and then install FP as user B (who has also admin rights) , FP works fine for user B, however for user A, FP is not installed/recoginzed (?), and user A is being asked to install FP, however that installation the fails, and so on and so on , . . . . .

  • Why does iOS not work with Blogger threaded discussions?

    This has been an ongoing problem since they appeared, if you do anything in a comment entry block on a Blogger based blog threaded reply it will silently crash. No more text entry, no moving cursor, no cut or paste functions.  You ask at Blogger support, no one answers - why would they want to fix an iOS problem? You leave nots here and other forums, no input no replies.  It must be a WebKit issue insincere all browsers have the same issue, even Chrome, and it happens on iPhone or iPad.
    Must be a JavaScript incompatibility but is frustrating - I'm surely not the only one who wants to reply to Blogger based blogs via iOS - it's one of the biggest blog services.
    Anyone have any insight? Rumors? Hope?

  • Why does iMessage not work with people who I have previously iMessaged?

    For the past couple of days, I have been having issues with iMessage switching back and from from regular texting. I went to Settings>Messages and turned off the "send as an SMS" option. Which kind of solved the problem, but sometimes it's taking forever for it to say "delivered" underneath when it has sent.
    But the MAIN problem I am having is that with 2 of my contacts--who both have iOS5 and with both I have previously iMessaged--it doesn't say "iMessage" in the text box with a blue send button. It says "text message" with a green send button.
    Is there any way to fix this?
    Thank you for your help!

    You can only send a imessage if you are connected to the internet if there is low signal it will send the message normally
    It takes a while to say delivered because to recieve imessage the other person has to be connected to the internet so if they have a low connection it wont say delivered till they have a good connection

    if the files are in iTunes, select one (or all) and choose +create iPod or iPhone version+ from the advanced menu. try syncing the newly created file(s) to your Touch.
