Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37) for Ipod Nano

I have a Ipod Nano for 5 years and Saturday I was updating the latest Itunes and when I connect my Ipod to my PC I got a Code 37 error. I uninstalled the new itunes and put back the old itunes but my Ipod is still having the same error.  I did the same thing to unistall the ipod and itunes reboot the PC and installed itunes 10.7 back in and then my Ipod and still have the error. Then last night I tried out my Ipod Shuffle and connect it to my PC and it was installed successfully. Do I have to get a new Ipod if my nano isn't working (but it still plays)?

Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, 40
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

  • Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing.

    I'm having the error "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)" and I can't read/write CDs/DVDs. When I try to update the driver  I have the message that it is already up to date.
    I can't find the driver to dowload and try to fix the problem. Where can I download it or solve somehow my problem?

    Hello jlb1977,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
    iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Does any windows service affects the device driver wake up time?

    Is it possible for a windows service running on Win 8.1 (64 bit) to delay the wake up time of any device driver?
    One possibility could be where the driver has any dependency on any other driver/service.
    In this case, I checked the driver's INF file and there is no dependency section.
    The driver start up type is service_demand_start and driver type is kernel driver.
    Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

    Are you asking if a service can impact when the driver is started or when it is woken up after hibernation?  For a demand start driver they start when they are needed so depending on the driver yes it could only be started after the service does an
    action.  You have eliminated the dependency section, but is the driver for actual hardware?  If yes then it is highly unlikely the service can impact it.  If no, then the service could be the starting it with StartService, or forcing its enumeration
    and starting.
    If you are talking the hibernation case, no there is impact.

  • Equium - Windows can't load the device driver for USB dongle

    I have been using a dongle without problems for about a month, however now it is saying (in device manager ) "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)"
    what does this mean and how can i fix it?

    hi it's a vodafone 3gb cheap as chips dongle
    it's an equium a200 i think
    everything cam as one on the dongle, it uninstalled ok after initial problem, but now won't acknowledge it is in fact a dongle, just a 'usb mass filter' something or other?
    i know i sound completely stupid, but when it comes to technology i am!

  • Windows Can't find Device Driver Softw

    I just got a Zen 6GB media player, and I installed the Media Explorer software from the cd that came with it, charged the player via the computer, but I can't load anything on to the player because everything says it is still not connected. The reason for this seems to be that when I plug it in, windows cannot install the device's driver software. It starts searching for the drivers, but can't find them. In window's device manager it lists under Portable Devices a MTP Device, but it has the yellow exclamation point on it. And when you look at the devices details it says "This Device cannot start. (Code 0)"
    Does anyone have any idea if there is some way I can get the drivers elsewhere and point windows to them? I'm not sure what to do. All the related software says there is no device connected, since the computer won't recognize it without any driver information I guess. Any help would be very much appreciated.
    I have Windows Vista and everything is up to date as far as I am aware.
    Thanks?

    I reinstalled Itunes a couple of times.  I unistalled all programs that I never use, I updated all of my drivers, Windows swept my computer and found no problems.  I have a yellow causion lite when I look at the USB-port with the phone connected.  All other devices work without a problem.

  • When I try to open iTunes, I get this error message: Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item. I get a different error message if I try to uninstall it.

    When I try to open iTunes, I get this error message: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." I've been able to uninstall all Apple products except iTunes as I get this error message: "The Installer has insufficent privileges to modify this file: C:\Program Files\i Tunes\Acknowledgments.rtf." I've had the iTunes on my laptop for a year and a half with no problems until now.

    Any suggestions please?

  • Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?

    Installed video drivers may not always support the functionality of the latest Flash Player.  If Flash Player does not function correctly, updating the video drivers to the latest available version is one of the first steps to try.  Below are instructions how to update the video drivers on Windows systems.
    identify the manufacturer and type of your video card
    open Device Manager: Start | Run | enter devmgmt.msc
    open the Display Adapters drop-down; this will show you the installed video card:
    identify the device driver version
    right-click on your display adapter entry and select Properties
    click on the Driver tab; this will show you the driver version and date:
    go to the device manufacturer's support site and download the latest driver
    NVIDIA cards: NVIDIA driver download page, or auto-detect
    ATI cards: ATI driver download page, or auto-detect
    Intel cards: Intel driver download page, or auto-detect
    Matrox cards: Matrox driver download page
    VIA cards: VIA Arena driver download page (redirects to 3rd-party download site)
    SiS cards: SiS driver download page, or auto-detect
    S3 cards: S3 driver download page, or auto-detect (option 2 on the download page)
    follow the instructions on the manufacturer's support site
    Note: some of the auto-detect utilities linked above will only run on Internet Explorer.
