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

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

- 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.

  • 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!

    Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
    Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.

  • My ipod touch 4 put itself into recovery mode

    My ipod touch 4 put itself into recovery mode and when i plugged it in it asked me restore it, i clicked restore and it extracted the software then crashed, leaving it with no software. i then gave it to my nearest apple store and the guy said it cant be fixed telling me it was a hardware problem. Any suggestions as to what it could be and if it can be fixed? I really appreciate it

    What crashed?
    iTunes? The whole computer?
    What do you mean by crashed?

    Apple drives in MacBooks do not support mini DVDs. They cannot be injected or ejected properly. Some of them work in tray-loaders like on the Mac Pro.
    Yes, make an appointment and take it to the Genius Bar.

    last week lost my ipod and i located it last in a shopping mall. now it is offline. what i want to know is how can the serial number be helpful to me.
    Also will i be apple to locate the ipod when ever it is connected to the internet, for how long?

    The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours if it is recovered.
    Apple will not nothing.
    Report it to the police and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.
