Why ITunes do not recognize my iPod Touch

Hi everybody!
I have an IPod Touch and for some weeks, I have big problems with ITunes I can not solve.  Let me explain:
Initially, it worked fine.  Then one day, decided that ITunes does not recognize my IPod Touch, more precisely it do not read more.
When I plug my IPod Touch, ITunes tries to read it and then a message appears saying: «ITunes can not read the contents of the IPod xxxx».  Then they told me to restore my IPod to restore the original settings, I tried but it did not work either because after a while a message appears telling me that my internet connection failed while yet it works!!?!!
Then I tried to solve the problem in the tab «Help» ITunes under «establish a diagnosis» and then the test tells me that there is no IPod detected while my IPod is plugged and recognized in Windows Vista.  It tells me: «ITunes could not connect to the IPod xxxx because the record is missing the match.» What does that mean??
I also tried everything in the Apple support and nothing worked.  My IPod ans ITunes are up to date.  I even uninstalled ITunes and any Apple product for the reinstalled everything but it still does not work.
Does anyone can help me??
I confess that I am discouraged and frustrated.
Thank you in advance!
Zazzz
P.S. Sorry for my English.... I'm French, but I try to speak English for speak with you!
Bonjour tout le monde!
J'ai un IPod Touch et depuis quelques semaines, j'ai de gros problèmes avec ITunes que je n'arrive pas à résoudre.  Je vous explique:
Au départ, tout fonctionnait bien.  Puis un jour, ITunes a décidé qu'il ne reconnait plus mon IPod Touch, plus précisémment il ne le lie plus.  Lorsque je branche mon IPod Touch, ITunes essaie de le lire puis un message s'affiche me disant: «ITunes ne peut pas lire le contenu de l'IPod xxxx».  Puis on me dit de restaurer mon IPod afin de rétablir les  paramètres d'origine, ce que j'ai essayé mais ça ne fonctionne pas non plus car après un temps un message s'affiche me disant que ma connexion internet a échoué alors que pourtant elle fonctionne!!?!!
Puis, j'ai essayé de résoudre le problème dans l'onglet «aide» d'ITunes sous établir un diagnostique et là, le test me dit qu'il n'y a aucun IPod détecté alors que mon IPod est bien branché et reconnu dans Windows Vista.  On me dit aussi: « ITunes n'a pu se connecter à l'IPod xxxx car l'enregistrement du jumelage est manquant».  Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire??
J'ai aussi tout essayer dans le support d'Apple et rien n'a fonctionné.  Mon IPod et ITunes sont à jour.  J'ai même désinstallé ITunes et tout les produit Apple pour tout réinstallé mais ça ne fonctionne toujours pas. :-(
Est-ce que quelqu'un peut m'aider??!! 
J'avoue que je suis découragée et frustrée.
Merci d'avance!

  • ITunes will not recognize my Ipod touch.

    iTunes will not recognize my Ipod touch.  It attempts to perform a recovery, but must restore first.  but the restore fails, gives my 1604 code.  I have switched cords, USB ports all with no success.  I have a second touch (an older generation), a 160 GB Ipod & a shuffle that all work fine.  Not sure where to go.  One place said that I should reinstall iTunes, but wasn't sure if I would lost my library and apps.  Pleas advise.  Thanks.

    Try to reinstall iTunes as explained in this article:

    Backup your iTunes before, just in case. Apps and other bought media from iTunes can be downloaded again for free:

    hi sally,
    see if this user tip by Yorkwill helps:
    +In the end what works is to just force the drivers on what windows thinks is a camera, i.e. to ‘update’ the device to use the correct driver. There are some hints on how to do this already listed on this forum, but I’ll try to give some more detailed information:+
    +1. First off you need to have iTunes installed and the ipod touch plugged in+
    +and recognized as ‘something’ e.g. digital camera (it shouldn’t really+
    +matter what it’s recognized as, but it needs to be found by windows).+
    +2. Search for usbaapl in the C:\WINDOWS system folder:+
    +o open windows explorer (e.g. Right-click Start and then click ‘explore’)+
    +o right-click the WINDOWS folder and select ‘Search’).+
    +o type in usbaapl and hit Search – try to ignore the dog!+
    +You should find the driver info in a sub folder of+
    +C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B+
    +Remember that location (either leave the search box open or copy the folder+
    +name into note pad – you’ll need it later)+
    +If you don’t find usbaapl.sys, usbaapl.inf etc. then your drivers have not+
    +been installed with the iTunes install and you’ll have to reinstall iTunes.+
    +3. Locate the ipod-camera device:+
    +o Open the device manager, e.g. using Start > Control Panel >+
    +Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager+
    +o Look for a device called ‘ipod’ - if your ipod shows up as+
    +‘digital camera’ it will be under something like ‘imaging devices’.+
    +4. Update the driver:+
    +o Right click the ‘ipod-camera’ in device manager and click on+
    +‘Update Driver’ – the Hardware Update Wizard will open.+
    +o Check the ‘Install from a list or specific location’ then click ‘Next’+
    +o Check ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’. Un-check+
    +‘Search removable media’ and check ‘Include this location in the search’.+
    +In the text box below type (or better copy and paste) the folder+
    +containing the ipod driver information found in step 1 (in the example+
    +above it was C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B), +
    +then click Next.+
    +You should now see something like ‘Apple ipod device driver’ or so. Continue+
    +installing that device. Once the driver has been installed the ipod will come+
    +to life and iTunes (if you have it open) will show it.+

  • ITunes will not recognize my iPod Touch 4 so I am not able to restore

    I am trying to restore my iPod Touch 4th Generation so I can get rid of the jailbreak but whenever I plug in my device, the computer recognizes it but not iTunes. I have managed to get it to recognize it a few times which is when I try to restore it, and I'll get to the point where it says "preparing for restore" or something to that effect, but it will stay like that so I cannot restore and get rid of my jailbreak. I know this may sound confusing but I can't think of another way to explain it and I really need help.

    Jailbreaking can have its unintended consequences. It is against the terms of use of the Apple forum to discuss/help with jailbreaking or or jailbroken devices.
