Windows 7 can't install my iPod and iTunes can't find my iPod

Hello, I've just repaired my laptop and picked up at that shop and when I tryed to plug in my iPod it says :
The device driver is not installed
click here for details
and I don't know what to do
any solutions?? please I need help

it might be worth trying a Windows reformat of the ipod (to FAT32), and then trying to restore again.
if she is showing up in My Computer, right click on her and select format. note that it has to be FAT32 for a Windows formatted ipod:
iPod no longer plays music after formatting or partitioning the hard disk
if the reformatting goes through okay, try plugging her back in and restoring again.
if there's no joy with that, it's probably time to send her in for service, as per:
iPod displays a folder icon with an exclamation point

Songs wiped from ipod and itunes, can i get them back?

If they were imported from CDs, and you had no other backup of them on your system or another drive, you'll need to reimport them from CDs again.
For music purchased from the iTunes, you can redownload each track at no cost via iCloud. See this article for more details.

i lost my ipod and do not have find my ipod app on it can it still be tracked?

No.
Sorry.

Very new to IPOD and iTunes can I listen to a sample of the song.........

Howdy all.
Very new to IPOD and iTunes but can I listen to a sample of any song before I purchase? If not then I can't see myself buying much.
Thankyou.

Yes you can, and apple strongly recommends people do this before buying a song,album,video ect ect
For a song,video, or game you just double click the songs name to preview it.

All of my music got deleted on my ipod and Itunes won't update onto Ipod...

I kept on getting a message that said I needed to update my Itunes, but I didn't update for a while and one day I unplugged my ipod and all of my songs on it were gone but they are all still on Itunes. So then I updated my Itunes and Ipod like it said and now it says that it can't update songs onto my ipod because "all of the playlists selected for updating no longer exist." I have NO idea what to do now! so PLEASE help me!! Thanks!

My ipod deleted everything it had on it and cannot get any songs stored on the ipod. Itunes has trouble finding my ipod at times, but when it finds it, it won't allow any files i try to put on my ipod stay on their.

I have the ipod classic 160gb and got it just last christmas. For quite awhile, it worked fine for me, but then one day i turned it on and there was no music or videos on my ipod. Battery was charged, the ipod functions well, just no music or videos. I tried connecting to my laptop and it wasnt showing up on itunes, but it was showing up on my computer. I updated my itunes to see if that worked and it did. It seemed to work, so I started putting my songs on it and my videos, and after i would disconnect it from the computer, nothing was on my ipod, again. I did this a couple of times with no result, with resetting it to factory settings 3 times to no avail. My brother told me to try to sync it up with my computer, so I tried that and it didn't work as well. I'm stumped on what to do. Can it be replaced?

When I hover over cover flow it says I have 12851 songs but when I click nothing happens.
When I hover over artists or albums it says 'no artists/albums'.
I can upload again from my CDs but just wondering if there is anything to do. I live abroad so all my CDs are in storage.

ITunes says cant find mi ipod?, ITunes says cant find mi ipod?

Well i think its kinda my fault because y download sharepod and im not sure but i think that i did something wrong in the process
Please help me!!

You said :
But when i try to restore it, happens what i said in the other question :/
Now im trying to do it with the firewall deactivated
What other question are yo talking aboput?

New hard drive and ITunes won't recognize my IPod

Hi, I recently had to replace my hard drive. I had to download Itunes again. While trying to upload the songs from my IPod, the Itunes application tells me that my ipod belongs to another library and my only option is to sync the library with my ipod (erasing all my songs from my ipod) or upload all "purchased" Itunes from my ipod (which are only about 10 songs!). How do I make it so my library recognizes my ipod as its own and not "another"?
Thanks.

Only the purchased iTunes songs can be copied from the iPod to iTunes - Unless you find some iPod hack program to access your iPod's library.
The best way to make sure you don't lose your songs on your iPod is to manually update your iPod.
Loading songs onto iPod manually
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesWin/7.1/en/2580.html
This setting allows you to drag & drop songs from your library to your iPod and won't ask you the "sync the library" question. You will have to manually eject your iPod before disconnecting it.

Question re: email from Apple: "Welcome to iPod and iTunes."

I was curious as to why, when I received my "Welcome to iPod and iTunes" email (after registering my Ipod Nano), the email shows 3 different serial numbers...
I only bought 1.
Just wondering...

You can check your Junk/Spam folders, sometimes the e-mail gets sent there. Also, double check that the primary e-mail address in your Apple ID account is hers. If none of this works, I suggest to wait it out, sometimes it can take up to 24 hours!

Hi Moclam12,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPod classic is formatted for Windows, and you want to sync it with your Mac, try to force the iPod into Disk Mode and then restore it using your Mac.

HT1339 my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

Your question(s) is/are a little hard to understand. So your husband has an iPod as well as a netbook and he wants to be able to sync iPod with this netbook is that correct? If so, he'll need to first download and install iTunes assuming the netbook is running some version of Windows such as 7, Vista, or XP.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
As for importing or ripping music, he'll have to either use an external CD/DVD drive that is attached via USB or rip the songs to another PC you have with a built in CD/DVD drive. Once you have imported them to the other computer, you can transfer the songs to an external hard drive or to his iTunes library via Home Sharing.
If this isn't quite what you were looking for, please clarify.

hI, bella
I also met this issue a few days ago and I finally find out how to transfer music from iPod to computer:
1. Plug your iPod in and wait for the computer to recognize it.
2. Open up 'My Computer' and under 'Devices With Removable Storage', double click and open apple iPod.
3. Click on 'Tools' at the top of the window and drag down to 'Folder Options'.
4. Under the 'View' tab, find the subfolder called 'Hidden files and folders'.
5. Select the option 'Show hidden files and folders'.
6. Click 'OK'.
