Windows Vista is not bringing up my Ipod

I currently purchased a new Dell XPS420 with windows vista. When I connect my
ipod (which has a total of 7663 songs, copied with the use of my laptop and windows XP), I do not see the ipod in the device section and is not able to do anything with it, when using windows vista. What must I do to be able to work with ipod using windows vista?

Recently, a friend of mine experienced a similar problem after changing his operating system from xp 2 vista. By now he unfortunately hasn’t found a solution for this issue and had 2 copy his data manually over my mac.

  • Lightroom6 instalation rejects installation on Windows 7 with remark that windows vista is not supported

    I tried to install Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 System
    The installer jejects the Installation with the remark that Windows Vista is not supported by this product
    Is that Problem known? Is any solution available?

    Hi Michael,
    You can follow the article: How to troubleshoot issues that may prevent a program from being installed correctly on a Windows Vista-based computer and check whether the installer is running in Compatible Mode or not.
    If the check box for Compatibility Mode is checked and simply UnCheck it and click Apply.
    Run the installer and again and check if it still gives you any error message.
    Let us know if it works or not.
    Thanks,

  • Windows Vista does not see my Ipad but it always did prior to this attempt

    Windows Vista does not see my Ipad, this is a new problem and I have not made any major changes to either my computer or to my Ipad.  I am running Vista 64 as an operating system.  I get the message that windows has an unrecognized USB device.  I checked to see if the Apple Mobility software is running and it was, I reset it, turned off the computer, soft reset the Ipad but still no luck.

    Hi,
    Can you try a different USB port?

  • Windows vista do not start

    Windows vista do not start.  
    I have tried starting in the different safe mode, none works (after the loading bar it all just becomes black), also tried start repair it just says that start repair can not fix the error.  I have check if I could restore it to a previus state when it work, but it seems like it hasnt save any for some reason. . I have done diagnostic test on the hardware and everything seems to be fine.  Probably some virus.
    Can I still reinstall the windows without overwriting every personal file?   I can not see any option of just reinstall the window only, not the the hardrive.  Can I do this in bios maybe? To me you should be able to reinstall just windows and nothing else. It is ok, if the the virus is still there after I have reinstall just windows, what I want to do is save some files, so if I can only come in the computer for 5 min, that is all I need.
    I have read that you maybe can save files with  downloading linux and load the computer with that to get access to the files. But I do not have a seperat computer with dvd or  usb stick. All things can be fix, but it will both cost money and is a little bit of a hassel, for something then maybe not even work in the end.

    Your options a limited here.
    Should you wish to save your files you will have to put the hard drive in an external hard drive caddy and plug it into the USB port of another computer to transfer your files.
    Once done, put the hard drive back into your computer and perform a factory restore which will return your computer to it's original state as when you got it.  You will have to reinstall your programs and data files.
    Please mark my post as SOLVED if it has resolved your problem. It helps others with similar situations.

  • Windows Vista - iTunes not recognising iPod!

    Install an hardware diagnostic tool like Everest home Edit or similar.
    This tool would provide all hardware details about your notebook.
    It would list all devices and chipset name too.
    I think its Intel chipset so you could find the driver on the Intel page

  • Satellite L300 & Windows Vista are not recognising Ipod

    hi, i'm hoping you can help!!! I have been directed here by Microsoft & Apple - below is my issue and also Microsofts response:
    i have an ipod nano 3rd gen, working off a near new laptop with windows vista. itunes is all set up, no issues with ipod at all but when i plug the ipod in, it only charges the ipod.
    computer does not recognise the ipod at all, in windows or itunes. there is no portable device driver in the Device Manager or anywhere at all.
    it is not the usb port as other usb's have been recognised. i've tried in all other usb ports as well. bottom line is that windows vista (and itunes) is not recognising the ipod at all.
    i've been in touch with apple, with no avail. i've googled solutions only to find hundreds of other posts with exactly the same problem but no helpful solution. windows vista has no portable device port - how does one get this on their pc???
    i've been at this for 4 days now and have uninstalled/reinstalled way too many times and i'm at wits end!! any advice (other than "have you tried another usb port" or "have you reset the ipod" or anything similar) would be much appreciated.
    once again, there is no portable/ipod device drive located on this computer. please, i'm really hoping someone can help =)
    *Microsofts response:*
    Hi,
    Step 1:Turn USB bus power back
    If laptop is configured to conserve power by turning off power on the USB (Universal Serial Bus), it might not recognize a connected iPod.
    To turn USB bus power back, you may follow the steps mentioned in the Apple link below
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1401
    You stated Windows vista has no portable device port Normally, all portable devices are connected via a USB port and they appear under Universal Serial Bus controllers in the Device Manager.
    Step 2:Reinstall USB controllers.
    First, please disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:
    1. Click "Start", type in Device Manager the Search bar and press "Enter". Click Continue if necessary.
    2. In Device Manager, double click to expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers", right click on the "Host Controller", click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    3. Repeat the step 2 to uninstall all items under "Universal Serial Bus controllers".
    Then, restart your computer and windows will reinstall all USB controllers automatically.
    If the issue still persists,
    *Step 3:Download and install the latest chipset drivers from the laptop manufacturers website.*
    *So here I am with the issue still not resolved. *How do i Download and install the latest chipset drivers in order to have Toshiba Satellite L300 & Microsoft Vista recognise my ipod??*
    Many thanks in advance!

  • Upgrading to Windows vista means itunes wont detect my ipod?? Help please.

    Recently upgraded to windows Vista. Big whopdeedo.
    But anyway, when I plug my ipod in, windows tries to update drivers for it, but of course failas horribly.
    However, this is having a knock on effect that means itunes wont detect my ipod. So, while my ipod recharges, I cannot sync it. Thus I can't add new songs and what-not.
    Please help.

    Yes my ipod is jailbroken, but this has never proved an issue before.
    Its not just itunes that now wont recognise my ipod, my other software wont either, and they used to work with the jailbroken ipod.
    This all started after i synced a nano, then connected my ipod and a screen came up saying ipod camera connected.
    I click on the camera icon in mycomputer and properties tab then selected take no action in the events tab.
    This hasnt resolved my issue, and the ipod still comes up as a camera in mycomputer, the only difference being im now not prompted to choose a program to view my photos with.
    This is really getting up my nose, as for the second poster, sorry that article was no help at all.
    Please someone help me
