Windows xp and itunes don't recognise my nano.. someone plz help.. =(
my computer doesn't recognise the ipod nano, ocassionally it charges for about a minute then the ipod turns off, but ipod hasn't shown up in 'my computer' since april..! it works perfectly on my laptop, but it is annoying to use since i have to keep transfering music from my computer to the laptop. i don't understand why it doesn't appear in my computer or in itunes because my brother's JNC mp4 works perfectly on the computer.
i even called up technical help to ask, they told me i can send the ipod for repair and apple will definitely fix my problem, YET they sent it back without changing a single thing..!! apple is ridiculous
I just fixed this problem last night. I hopped around a few threads here and found the answer but of course now I can't find it to give you the exact link. But I think I can walk you through it. You need to put your ipod into "Disk Mode". Plug it into the USB port, toggle hold on & off. Then press & hold center and top of the wheel at the same time for about 5 seconds. As soon as the apple appears, release and press the center and bottom of the wheel at the same time. When you see a check mark in the center of the screen release - that means you are in disk mode. When I did that suddenly iTunes recognized my ipod again (4 months later!!). I updated and everything was fine. I didn't even need to restore which is what I was trying to do. Good Luck!!

My iPod Classic 80gb every now-and-then goes funny, and eventually iTunes doesn't recognise it. In the past I could put it on disk mode, and do a reset, but some times I would have to format (FAT32), uninstall and reinstall iTunes, so it would work. Now it happened again, this time wiped clean the hard drive and formatted. However windows 7 and iTunes still doesn't recognise it. Tried many tips online but nothing works. All software I have used don't see the hard drive, so can't format it again.
I can get it on disk mode but even then windows and iTunes don't recognise it. When connecting to laptop my machine goes boiling hot. Left it connected with iTunes on for few hours but still no luck.
Any suggestions?Hello @turingtest2.
Following your threat I realized it was time to have my hard drive changed. My iPod classic has a Samsung Model: HS081HA, 80gb/3600 rpm (real hard to get it open and check out!!!).
My question is if I DO HAVE to buy exactly the same hard drive, or I could get away with another manufacturer and model, such as Toshiba (80 GB MK8009GAH FOR iPod Video 5th 5.5th iPod Classic 6.5th 7th Gen Hard Drive - Ebay listing)?
I ask you that as these Toshiba hard drives are considerably cheaper.
Help much appreciated. -

Hi Moclam12,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPod classic is formatted for Windows, and you want to sync it with your Mac, try to force the iPod into Disk Mode and then restore it using your Mac.

I have a 6th gen nano and windows 8.1. Itunes does not recognise my nano. I have tunes to download
B noir
Yes that is correct
Okay. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 -
I have windows 8 and itunes 11.1 ... my laptop identifies my iphone 4 but itunes insists that I either update my phone to OS 7 or restore to by basic 6.1.3 OS I don't want to do either. How can I get itunes to access my iphone ?
RealPlayer can cause conflicts with Flash Player because it tries to assign EVERY TYPE of video or audio file to itself by default. I haven't used RealPlayer in years for that reason. It's an unnecessary program anymore. There are apps loike VLC media player that cna do EVERYTHING it does without conflicting with other apps like Flash Player.
With WIndows 8, Microsoft began embedding FlashPlayer themselves into Internet Explorer. Because of that, you cannot download and install it from here. You cannot uninstall it from Internet Explorer without removing a specific Windows Update first. And you cannot update it via this website. ONLY through Windows Update can Flash Player for Internet Explorer be updated.
That said, you probably DON'T have a virus that's causing the problems with Flash Player and Internet Explorer. Many, many websites are not "recognizing" the browser.
This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released IE11 The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player.
So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in. -
I changed my PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and iTunes stopped recognising my iPhone 4S and iPad 3, although it appears in My Computer.
Windows 8 is not supported at this time.

I have Windows 8.1 and Itunes will not recognise either my Ipad, Ipone or Ipod
I have Windows 8.1 and Itunes will not recognise my Ipad, Iphone or Ipod even though it did so in Windows 7
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or by right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

Windows AND iTunes don't recognize Nano at all...
I just got an 8GB Nano a few days ago, and when I connect it, nothing recognizes there's anything there. Device manager, My Computer, and iTunes all act like there's nothing connected to the computer. I would think it's my computer, but my iPod Mini 6GB syncs perfectly fine with no problem.
It's not a question of it just not syncing, the whole system acts like there's nothing there.
iPod updated 2006-6-28 just tells me that my Mini is no longer supported, and won't let me even try to do anything with a nano.
I have the XP service pack 2, and photoshop as well. I'm running iTunes 7 on my computer, and everything IS hooked up corrected, because my Mini works fine with this.
So... Is there some solution I just haven't tried, or is it time to take advantage of the warrenty?...Still got problems...
Although, when I start up my computer, the charging symbol shows up, and then dissappears. Poof.
My mini still works fine with the exact same connection and everything... Soooo... This really kinda *****.
I updated to iTunes 7.0.1 or whatever, and I've been searching all kinds of forums... Everyone seems to be okay with the computer recognizing the iPod... But my computer isn't even recognizing there's something there...
Would a hi speed 2.0 USB connection from Stratitec work? Because that's what I'm using on the mini and attempting to use on the nano. Plleeeeeaaaassseee help me ^_^;;
(I need to figure out if I should use the warranty.) -

Computer AND iTunes don't recognize my iPod touch. Comp thinks it is a camera or something. iTunes won't bring up devices at all. I've already uninstalled iTunes and QT and reinstalled after problem that happened when I updated iTunes - updated iTunes completely demolished my computer's ability to recognize the sound card and computer had NO sound at all. I had to uninstall iTunes, QT, AND my sound card and reinstall them all. Sound worked fine, but now I can't sync my iPod. Computer recognizes that "something" is hooked up (thinks it might possibly be a camera) and I get that "open with" window. In "my computer" it shows that there is an "iPod" connected, but it is pictured as a camera. In iTunes my username is no longer appearing (although account info is there) and NO devices whatsoever get listed. There is nothing wrong with my USB ports or cable. And of course Apple won't help anyone unless you pay them to. ... I am getting beyond P/Oed!!! You pay hundreds for a product and all you get are headaches with their stupid bug infested software and no support at all.
Can anyone out there help me clean up this unbelievable mess Apple and iTunes has created in my computer?
Thank you.
EvieAfter three completely wasted days trying to figure all of this out I finally got it fixed - on my own - by reading dozens and dozens of rogue posts in indie forums from people that refuse to dish out money to have a company TRY and advise possible fixes on their own glitches.
(here's a novel idea - fix the glitches Apple. Or - don't send out updates filled with bugs in the first place)
Everything (several applications) had to be uninstalled in a very specific order and then restarted , then it all had to be verified with manual deletions of leftovers, and emptying the recycle bin, then another restart, then iT had to be reinstalled again and the system restarted again, and two more update downloads. Holy!!!
I love my little iPod touch, but I honestly must say, when this kind of thing happens (and it has several times now when I try to deal with iTunes or Apple), it makes me want to flush it down the toilet. -
I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there. I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working. Please help.
I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple. -
i have 64 bit windows 7- and itunes version 10.6.1.7. yet i cannot connect to the itunes store. do i need to download something additional?
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes, Sync and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
