Why doesn't my nano ipod show up as a device in itunes?
I can't get my new nano ipod to sync
Can't figure out why. Please help

See
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
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

HT1719 why doesnt my 1st generation ipod shuffle appear on my devices on itunes?
Why doesnt my 1st generation ipod shuffle appear under my devices on itunes when i plug it in? i have windows 7. I got the ipod today from a friend with their music. i deleted their music and added my own to the folder it was in. but when i unplugged it i still had their music and none of mine.
You need to restore the Shuffle in iTunes first. Then sync all of your music stored in iTunes over to it. Or is that what you did?

Why doesn't my apple tv show up under my devices?
I changed TVs...have the HDMI cable correctly set, but when I select that HDMI source nothing there. When I use the remote to reset, I get the visual of the itunes logo w/ the plug showing, telling me to connect to Itunes?? In Itunes...nothing under devices.
I am only able to answer part of your question because I didn't understand the first part...
Your ATV2 will not show up under devices in iTunes because it is not supposed to. Remember, it has no hard drive or anything else which you are able to "synch." -
Why isn't my second ipod touch listed as a device in itunes
My 4th generation ipod touch is not listed as a device in iTunes. Why not? Additionally, my device's version is ios 6.1.6 and says it is currently updated but periodically, when I try to install "apps" updates, the screen freezes during some updates and says "Unable to download app at this time." Tonight my device says there are updates needed, but it won't even go to the update screen. I am so confused. Please help me.

Why doesn't the Radio option show up in the Library in iTunes 11?
Everything else selected in preferences shows up in the Library (Movies, TV Shows, Tones, etc) but not Radio. What am I missing?
I also verified that there is no conflict with Parental Controls.
BTW, I'm not a fan of the new look of iTunes at all.
iTunes 11
2011 iMacRadio is now grouped in with the Music section and appears on the right side of the list at the top.

Why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?, why doesn't notes in Mavericks show the notes i had on iCloud in mail in Mountain Lion?
Ask a fifth time, and maybe the answer will appear.
Are the notes actually in iCloud? If you go to iCloud.com and log in, do you see them there? If so, it's an issue on your computer side. If not, then the notes don't exist on the server. -

Why doesn't my lost iPhone show up on the 'find me' map?
Many things can prevent this: the phone is out of battery power, the phone has been wiped out and is no longer connected to your mobile me account, and many more.

Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items?
Why doesn't Mail for IOS show sent items with an IMAP server account. Everything else works okay but there is two sent directories and no contant in any of them ...
Trouble is the same in both iPhone4 and iPad.
Exactly the same account shows everything on my Macintosh. Including Sent items.Using the method described above I see outgoing messages that were sent from Mail on my iMac in the correct mailboxes for 2 different MobileMe accounts.
You seem to be having and issue where your database/setting are corrupted if your messages are in the wrong outbox. I would suggest deleting the accounts from your iPad and the reconfiguring them.
While viewing an email at the top of the screen, left of the trash icon, you should se a Folder icon. Click on that to send the message to another folder. Page 59 of the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_2_user_guide.pdf

Often, when I connect my iPod Touch 2G to the PC, instead of showing up as a device on iTunes, a pop-up appears that says I have connected a camera and asks what I want to do. This device doesn't have a camera in it. When this happens, (not always)I can't update my iPod, no matter how many times I try to connect it. I have an old Nano that has never had this problem at all. Can anyone tell me what to do about this?

My ipod won't show up as a device on itunes
Every once in a while my ipod (2nd gen) won't show up as a device on itunes. Any thoughts on what might be wrong? I really miss not being able to download my updated pocasts --- the music isn't an issue because I can still listen to whatever I had on there last, but podcasts no way to update...
I've tried different ports for the usb hub, for the usb just the chord, etc.Well, once again if I had either thought a bit, or read another post or two I would have had an answer
I ended up following the ipod nano (2nd gen) trouble shooting steps --- and voila, it now shows up just fine. So anyone else having this probem with itunes/ipod nano on a mac -- try that first.
There are some other articles about reinstalling apple device service -- sorry don't remember the link -- but thatos for osx 10.6.8 or earlier but I'll bet just resetting your ipod will work most of the time. -

ITouch doesn't show up as a device in iTunes
My sister registered and installed my new iTouch. It used to show up as a "Device" on iTunes, but no longer does.
I've downloaded the most recent version of iTunes and restarted both the iTouch and computer. When I do plug in the iTouch, I only get the computer's "Auto-Play" message asking me if I want to import pictures, download from files, etc. It's the same message I get when I plug in a flash drive or my camera.
I realize this is not the most complicated question posted here : )
