Why won't iTunes recognize my internet connection so that i can restore my ipod and iphone?

iTunes will not recognize my internet connection so that I can restore my ipod and my iphone. Please help!!!!

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Why won't iTunes 11.0.1 sync my Podcasts to my 3rd Gen iPod Touch on IOS 6.0.1?

Why won't iTunes 11.0.1 sync my Podcasts to my 3rd Gen iPod Touch on IOS 6.0.1? I'm running iTunes on my MacBook with Mac OSX 10.6.8. I've checked to make sure in iTunes that the Podcast Sync box is checked and it is. I've tried checking communities and tried several suggestions and nothing seems to work for me. Everything else syncs except Podcasts. I can't figure it out. Any suggestions to get Podcasts syncing to my iPod Touch again? Thanks!

One other step I've tried was removing and completely reinstalling the playlist to the iPod. That cleared up the problem for about two days.

Why won't itunes recognize my iphone 3 on my new mac book air?

I just got a brand new mac book air for the holiday and I migrated all my files over from my old computer, but when I connect my iphone 3 to the new computer, itunes did not recognize it in the finder. I was able to sync and back up some files. And the computer knows that the device is connected (I checked in the System information file and it is listed as being connected. The phone also charges when it is connected, and I can sync my files). I have gone through many of the already relevant suggested fixes (used different USB port, changed cable, restarted computer, restarted phone) and still nothing has changed. I am running mac OS X 10.8.2 on my laptop and I have version 6.0.1 on my iphone.
I haven't re-installed itunes yet, as some have suggested as the laptop is brand new.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

try changing USB ports. if that doesnt work and you have restarted the computerand itunes is up to date, uninstall itunes in the order of the article below.
assuming you use windows.

HT204204 I need help because i connected my charger and the newest iTunes didn't show my name so i can update my iPod and icloud didn't help either so i need help from someone

Do you mean that when connected to your computer your iPod isn't being recognised by your computer's iTunes, you aren't getting the device icon showing next to the content type icons towards the top left of the iTunes screen ? e.g.
If not then see if one of these troubleshooting pages help :
PC : iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Mac : If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac - Apple Support
iCloud isn't used for updating a device (apart from backing up to it, though ideally you'd also back up to your computer's iTunes and copy any iTunes purchases over to your computer's iTunes library). Or do you mean that you can't update wirelessly directly on your iPod ?
(I've asked for your post to be moved to the Using iPod forum, where you've posted is for questions about the iTunes U app.)

Can you modify itunes "restore feature" so that i can restore my ipod to 5.1.1 as in itunes it also updates it.

i want to downgrade my ipod to 5.1.1. If you can please modify itunes so that while restoring my ipod , itunes does not automatically upgrade it but make it return to the original version which is much better than ios 6.0.1 as it is slower, i don't like z graphics and etc

Is the device actually in recovery mode? What is showing on the display?
If it's the "Connect to iTunes" screen, then the information is already lost.
If you've forced the device in DFU mode... reboot it and simply sync with the computer.

Upgraded to a Superdrive...why won't iTunes recognize it?

I recently had a guy install a Superdrive on my eMac. Now when I got to burn a CD or DVD in iTunes, I get a message that says: "Disc Burner or Software Not Found." Grrr. What should I do?

If patchburn doesn't fix it, you made need to open the case back up and double check the cables (ribbon and power cable). Make sure the cables are securely and correctly attached (generally the blue end of the ribbon cable goes to the board and the black end to the drive).
If the cables are secure, then check the jumper settings found on the back of the drive--many drives work best when set to the Cable Select (CS) jumper position; if you don't know which jumper position is CS and it is not labeled by the jumpers on the back of the drive, it generally will be found on a diagram on top of the drive--meaning the drive must be removed and checked or that you'll be doing some trial and error. If other applications recognize the burner and iTunes still doesn't after patchburn and connection settings, try updating or repairing disk permissions through Disk Utility.

Why won't itunes recognize iphone

Why won't iTunes recognize some of my songs?

I can't figure out why iTunes will not recognize over 100 of my songs. I recently purchased a 7th gen iPod to replace the other one which was stolen. Never had a problem with anything before the new iPod was installed, registered etc. Any advice? Thanks

Hi dpjakob,
My interpretation of your question is that iTunes has lost its link to 100 of your songs. When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:
iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:

Why won't iTunes recognize my iPod, ever since I got an external hard drive

I got an external drive and store my library there on the external drive. Ever since, iTunes will not recognize my iPod so I cannot update anything. Any suggestions?? Do I need to store the music on my hard drive and only use the external drive for back up?

If you want to make another drive (direct or portable) on your PC the main music location for iTunes, move all song files there, as well as any future imported music from CDs, here is one method (see the links below):
You will maintain your playlists, ratings, comments, etc. This will only move your music folders location, NOT your iTunes program files. It is my opinion that programs (i.e. – iTunes) work better when installed on your main hard drive. At the very least, it makes it easier to manage all your programs if they are centrally located on one hard drive (the Windows default standard).
See these links for some step-by-step info:
iLounge: Moving your iTunes Library to a New Hard Drive
MacMuse: iTfW: Move iTunes music/Library to new drive
iTunes: Moving your iTunes Music folder
If you are moving the music to an external hard drive or network drive, after the transfer, and to work correctly, the drive must be running prior to your opening iTunes. If not, iTunes will reset the location of your music folder location to the default.

My time capsule won't accept/recognize an internet connection

I've verified my modem is providing an internet signal, when I plug my MacBook Pro into the modem, I'm able to access the internet just fine. However, when plug my time capsule into the modem using the Internet WAN Port, my Airport utility says that the Time Capsule is not connected to the internet. I've tried using the reset button on the back of the Time Capsule, with it plugged in and I've even tried holding the reset button in while plugging the Time Capsule power in. Help me please?

Why won't iTunes recognize all the pictures in a folder I am trying to sync

I am trying to add a separate folder with 160 pictures in it to my iphone 4 but iTunes is only recognizing 83 of them the are all jpeg and roughly the same size they are not read only.

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync and see if they then copy over - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
