Why wont my ipod connect to my computer?
I've gone through all the steps.
I've reset my ipod
Put it in diskmode it only says okay to disconnect
changed usb ports
changed cables
made sure the cable worked with other ipods
used other computers.
Nothing I've done works, it doesnt show up on my computer at all, im getting so frustrated with it. Any helps?
How do you know it's charging then? Has this iPod ever successfully connected to this particular PC? Does anything appear in Device Manager when you plug it in? To access Device Manager, click Start and right->click on Computer and choose Manage. When the window appears make sure Device Manager is selected on the left. Then plug in your iPod and see if it appears anywhere such as in the USB Root section or the like.

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router

why wont my ipod sync anymore? Is it because it is the first touch that ever came out?
No, first-generation iPod touches still sync just fine. Give us details about your computer, particularly the operating system and version of iTunes it's running, and the exact nature of the problem and someone can probably offer suggestions.

Why wont my iPad connect to the closest/strongest wifi?
Why wont my iPad connect to the closest/strongest wifi at home? It alway defaults to the one upstairs even when I am right next to our extender in the kitchen?
Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
