Windows 7 will not recognize ipod touch, but itunes does.

i've removed iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour,  and Apple Application Support.  then reinstalled itunes 11.0.2.26; restarted computer.  tried diff usb ports, cables.  same issue -- the ipod is NOT recognized in windows, but itunes sees it.
the ipod works fine on a diff computer running windows XP -- it is recognized in both windows and itunes. a diff ipod has the same issues on this windows 7 computer. so, i don't think it's an ipod issue.  sounds like something in windows 7, but what??? thank you in advance! 
i am running windows 7 64-bit, if that helps.

  • Reinstalled Itunes for Windows will not recognize ipod touch 3rd generation.

    Itunes for Windows and PC will not recognize my ipod touch 3rd generation.  Also it will not fully charge using a brand new apple brand power adapter and cable. I have already uninstalled all Apple software on PC and reinstalled.  I've tried every step suggested by Apple online iPod touch Troubleshooting Assistant.

    the best thing i think you could do is go to an apple store or uninstall itunes and reinstall it one more time and see what happens

  • Itunes will not recognize Ipod Touch

    Ok, so I tried to install Itunes 8 when it first released the other day. I received the BSOD, I ended up reverting back to the last known working configuration for windows. So back to Itunes 7.7.1 or whatever. Plugged my Touch in, and it would not recognize at all. I checked in the hardware config and it seemed that the drivers were not installed for the Ipod. I found out about the HP printer fix, and unplugged my HP printer. I installed Itunes 8, works fine now.
    BUT, I plugged my Ipod Touch in, and I get a new hardware wizard, installs the drivers, and asks what I want to do with it, pull pictures off? It's acting like an external drive. Itunes won't recognize it though, no beeps stating it was connected, just won't recognize it is there.
    Is there anything I can do to fix this?

    The first five of those I actually tried. I should check the services menu, and I uninstalled Itunes, but did not restart afterwards. So when I reinstalled, everything was still there. I will try doing that tonight after work.

  • Windows recognizes Ipod mini but itunes does not.

    i have been having problems lately with windows recognizing my ipod but itunes will not. i have gone to the support page and have tried everything on their twice now and still nothing. i got the updater to recognize it at one point and hit restore but halfway through it said cannot mount and now all my songs are gone.

    If your iPod is recognized in "my computer", changing the drive letter can sometimes resolve this issue.
    Click on control panel/admin tools/computer management/disk management/right click on the iPod to re-assign the drive letter.
    Choose something lower down the alphabet, say 'M' or something similar.
    The iPod can be confused by any other storage devices assigned a similar drive letter even though they may not connected at the same time.
    These also may help.
    Fast user switching in Windows XP is not supported.
    Strange iPod behavior.

  • TS1369 After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

  • Windows 7 will not recognize the ipod.

    I have an ipod 4th touch 64 gig. Windows 7 will not recognize the ipod. It will make the noise of a connection and will only charge. It will not show in my computer as a hard drive. It will show in Itunes and other third party programs. I have searched the net and tried most of the advice to try and fix but will still not show as a hard drive.
    Has anyone had this problem and if so is there a fix?
    thanks

    I did read along the way about some of the ipods not being recognized as a HD. I just installed Iexplorer and looks like it will do the job. As long as I have something other than Itunes to see it as a HD. I use Syncios and Copy Trans and both work great as to transfer music. But to see the ipod as a HD iexplorer will do the Job.
    Again my ipod 4th gen will show in my computer but only the DCIM folder and a few other with pictures, no music folder or the control folder from the ipod.
    My ipad works great and another ipod the long thin ones work but not this ipod touch 4 gen 64 gig.
    Any other suggestions or help much appreciated
    thanks for the iexplorer it should help

    Hello mzshay2u2,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I understand that you're unable to locate your iPhone within iTunes 12 on your Mac.  First, I'd like you to take a look at the screenshot below, as iTunes 12 changed the navigation of your Library.
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If you do not see your iPhone's icon there, then continue on to the link below.
