  • Windows doesn't recognize iPod Touch 8gb 3g

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x64, and after I upgraded my iPod Touch to iOS4, it got stuck in DFU mode and is stuck in a continuous DFU mode loop. My computer won't recognize the device and I've done everything to try to reinstall the mobile device driver, I've reinstalled iTunes, rebooted the iPod, and I just don't know what to do anymore. Somebody please help me.

    I found a solution! I uninstalled everything from Apple on my computer. Everything. Bonjour, Apple Software Update, iTunes, everything Apple related that was on my PC. I then went to my Appdata folders and deleted all of the Apple and Apple Computer folders I could find. Then I rebooted and reinstalled iTunes and now it works fine! I hope this helps some more people as well!
    I did exactly that, as I was told to do that by an Apple advisor, only it just brought me back to square one. Same probelm as before the uninstall, ipod in recovery mode, and itunes not recognizing it.
    After that, they have shipped me a prepaid box for repair/replacement. I recommend everone else with same problem to do the same. Hopefull the new one I get will have OS4 installed and work fine. ****, I'll take 3.1.2 at this point, just want the **** thing to work.

  • Windows doesn't recognize Ipod and causes iTunes to Crash. . HELP!!

    Hi,
    Recently, I plugged in my ipod (30GB Photo) to my computer (running windows XP with SP2) and it caused itunes to crash. I rebooted the machine and tried again and the same thing has happened. I've spent the past day trying to fix it. I have done the following things and nothing has worked:
    -reset my IPOD
    -formated my IPOD (erased all the songs)
    -uninstalled and reinstalled ITUNES & QUICKTIME
    -tried to reinstall the ipod on the computer using the original cd.
    -disabled startup items to check if anything has been conflicting
    -tried all the usb ports on my computer and 2 different wires
    I don't know what else to do! I don't think the ipod is formatted for windows anymore (is that possible?) and whenever I try plugging it in, iTunes freezes up until I unplug the ipod. As well, Explorer recognizes it as a "Removable Disk" not IPOD.
    Please helpppppp! Thank you sooo much

    Hi there
    You're pretty much describing a problem I had yesterday.
    I've got the 2gb model and initially it was working fine. I run off a 4 port usb hub with other equipment running as well.
    Everything was okay but I kept getting a balloon telling me that usb 2.0 would be faster, so I routed my extension cable directly to a usb 2.0 port on my computer and all of what you describe started.
    The PC showed my nano as a removeable drive but could not be acesssed. If I managed to get it recognised in itunes (took forever) then it just said it was corrupted and was unable to restore.
    After much cursing and trawling the internet for answers, I gave up and put the cable back to the hub.
    And.....everything worked again !!
    I can only conclude that my hub (quite old) does not work on usb 2.0, or putting the extension cable (5m) straight into my PC causes a power drop / signal loss ??
    Are you using an extension cable or a hub? something to try.
    Good luck anyway

  • Windows doesn't recognize ipod nano, neither does itunes

    Okay, just received my ipod nano 8gb in the mail, was very excited. Now I'm just tired of it.
    I am running windows xp on an athlon 2400, connecting my ipod via usb 2.0. I have four usb ports, and have tried them all. I have itunes 7 etc installed.
    Upon plugging in my ipod, the windows add new hardware dialog appears. I can ignore it, or attempt to run it automatically, and it fails either way. My ipod is installed as an "other device" named "ipod" as a yellow question mark. effectively, it isn't installed.
    My ipod doesnt appear in My Computer as an external storage drive or anything else for that matter. I have no network drive to conflict with the naming standard, although I do have a CD and DVD drive labeled E and D, respectively. I attempted to rename those drives in case of conflict, and nothing happened.
    When I run itunes, no ipod installer or updater appears. No device is detected. I cannot Sync my ipod. The diagnostic tool simply says that the ipod connection failed, and after visiting the accompanying Help link and attempting -every- solution, nothing has changed.
    In fact, I have reviewed and attempted every single solution to every similar or somewhat-related problem that apple has posted at their site, as well as some from these discussion forums and others around the web. My point is, please hesitate before you link me to one of apple's support manuals--I've read them all, extensively.
    I have a fair knowledge of computers, but this problem is simply beyond me. I have established that my ipod can connect to another computer (running windows ME) and appear at least in My Computer as a drive. I believe the problem is related to my USB ports, their drivers, or perhaps (god forbid) my OS.
    ANY help or suggestions would be appreciated, even if they are redundant. I am at an utter loss.

  • Windows doesn't recognize ipod touch 4g even when in recovery mode, what can i do. itunes doesn't detect it either.

    when i try to conect my ipod touch 4g to my laptop, it doesn't recgonize it itunes doesn't either. at first i would get a pop up from my laptop saying something about the driver buit now nothing happens, but when i try to connet an ipad or ipod nano 3g everything works fine, i have the latest version of itunes and i have firmware 4.3.5 on my ipod. please help.

    What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
    Without knowing that:
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Windows doesn't recognize IPod

    whenever I plug the Ipod into the USB, all I get is an "unknown device" and it wants drivers installed.
    can't find anything on the site here about downloading such, other than downloading Itunes, which I have done 4 times now. most of the advice I've seen requires using Itunes to do something with the pod, but I can't get the computer to even tell itunes that the ipod is there.
    help?

    A FRIEND SENT ME A USED IPOD MINI AND IT WORKED GREAT, PLAYING THE SONG ALREADY STORED UNTIL I CONNECTED IT TO MY PC MY COMPUTER WOULDNT RECONGNIZE THE IPOD AT ALL TI KEEP SAYING (UNKNOWN USB DEVICE)I TRIED EVERYTHING AND NOTHING WORKS CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLZZZZZZZZZZZZ

  • Everything deleted & iTunes & Updater doesn't recognize iPod

    Yeah, that's my problem. Funny thing is, I didn't do anything to the iPod to cause the problem. One day I was just adding songs to the iPod & using it like a hard drive (things I've done before with no problems) & then I turn it on two days later to find all my songs deleted. It was returned to factory settings when I didn't do anything.
    I hooked iPod up to my computer & it's not recognized by iTunes or the Updater. My computer, however, recognizes it & says that the iPod has the memory it did before the problem. I read the article for when iPod isn't recognized by iTunes or iPod, but I don't know if this would also apply because I also have the another problem. I didn't try this yet because I gave my iPod to some one to help me. He couldn't solve my problem so I'm turning it over to all of you.
    Thanks so much!

    Try Resetting Your iPod while it's connected to the computer.
    Hold down the Menu and Select buttons until you see the Apple logo (or Menu & Play/Pause in older models).
    This will often get it recognized. It may take several attempts.

  • Updated to 1.2.2 - Now Windows Doesn't Recognize

    Hiya, I've had this 5G 80gb iPod for about a year and this is the first major problem I've encountered.
    After updating to 1.2.2 (something I now regret) Windows refuses to recognize my iPod, I've followed all the guidelines and I've even tried to connect it to my laptop to no avail. The Device Manager seems to show a problem with the USB port, but I can use other hardware without any problem, and the iPod won't work on any of my six ports (there's a weird 'negative' sound each time I connect it). I can listen to my music alright, but I can't take or put anything in my iPod if Windows doesn't recognize it.
    Could it be a version problem? And in that case, is there a way of reverting the firmware?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi CamBej,
    Have a look at this article about windows not recognising iPod,
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305136
    If you want to revert back to version 1.2.1 on your iPod you will have to restore it, version 1.2.2 has been removed as it was causing a lot of problems.

  • Windows won't recognize ipod shuffle still !! Please Help

    Ok, I just got this thing from a work awards website, you know your work gives you points and you can buy things with them? Anyway my wife has a 20gb ipod, pretty cool, so I figure I'll get the shuffle cause she won't let me near her ipod. I get it last week try to set it up and nothing it can't be recognized by the computer. So I think maybe it's not getting fully seated in the USB port and go buy a docing station today, come home hook it up, same problem, the darn computer doesn't recognize it, nothing. So I see that there is an on-line chat support tool, I think very cool they can help me. I enter my S/N and it says it was purchased like 4 months ago, no support for me. So now I'm very agravated, I just got this thing, but because the awards place bought it a while ago I'm out the 90-day support. I've done everything in the FAQ's it's charged, I've reset it a thousand times, I've tried to reload the shuffle but windows doesn't recognize it so I can't. What really makes me mad is the 20gb ipod works fine. I read in here that when you see amber and green isn't good? Thats all I see when I turn it on and touch any button. What does this mean? someone help me here, please... I'm going nuts

    was having this problem among others. Found that I could see it in windows explorer but only as an additional disk but nothing in itunes. reformatted in windows, used updater then ejected from explorer. when fires up itunes and then reconnected ipod - it found it.

  • Imac 10.7.5 doesn't recognize iPod touch 32gb 5th gen, iPad and iPad mini all work ok

    imac 10.7.5 doesn't recognize iPod touch 32gb 5th gen, iPad and iPad mini all work ok.
    Itunes 11.3
    7.1.2 iPod touch 32gb, V/ 5th generation
    I just don't get it. I got the iPod from a friend which didn't use it at all. If I connect my iPad or iPad mini to my mac, they all get connected well and iTunes sees them too. iPod touch not for some reason
    The iPod touch is completely new, no missing contacts etc. It works on other macs as well. Only my iMac doesn't see the iPod Touch. Maybe I can repost this problem in The IMAC section in stead of the iPod Touch, since I think its a iMac problem from now on...
    please help!

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Itunes doesn't recognize Ipod even though Itunes appears!!!!

    Itunes doesn't recognize Ipod even though Itunes pops up! I dropped it like 1 foot in the air once and landed on concrete. Now everything's fine until I play a song and it will just skip, freeze or just play a little bit and then skip. I don't think this is the problem but this is getting more wierd. I've tried almost every solution in this site but none of them worked so please, anyone, help me if you have a solution to this problem!!!

    When your iPod does not appear in iTunes:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61771
    You might want to reset your iPod to prevent any more skipping and freezing. Press and hold the MENU and CENTER buttons - at the same time - until the Apple logo shows. This should take about 6 seconds. Also, you want to do this while your iPod is connected to your computer.
