Xbox 360 not recognizing playlists on ipod - naming ipod "audiobooks"

All of a sudden XBox 360 is recognizing my ipod as "audiobooks" (when connected directy thru USB). It used to say "Tom's ipod". The bigger issue is that I can no longer access my playlists in my ipod when playing it through the 360. I am using the Elite and a ipod photo. I am not sure what happened. Anyone have any ideas on wht I can do?
Some others on an Xbox support thread theorize that it might be the last itunes update.

I have the same problem. It happened not too long when I updated iTunes to version 7.3 I think. I now have version 7.5 and still not working. I thought it was my older Ipod, but my new 2007 Ipod Classic 80 GB does the same thing. Xbox 360 doesn't recognize the playlists on my new Ipod. This *****. Please Apple fix this immediately, I don't want to buy a Zune to hear music on my home theatre system. I use the xbox 360 as a media hub for video and audio. Many xbox 360 owners have ipods and use it for the same purpose.

5th gen ipod not recognized by windows, but old ipod min works fine.

my new ipod is not recognized by windows at all. my old ipod mini works fine. i even uninstalled everything and tried reinstalling the new ipod. after that didnt work, i plugged in my mini, and it reinstalled perfectly.
I also plugged my new 5th gen into another computer with itunes and it recognized it perfectly.
is there some sort of software conflict between the mini and other ipods? this is driving me insane.

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.

"USB Device Not Recognized" error when I connect iPod to my PC

I have a brand new 5th gen (I think) iPod.
I have been able to connect it successfully to my home laptop, download music to it and play it so I know the iPod works per se and the cable is ok too.
Now at work (where tons of my music is) when I connect it to my PC here and I get a "USB Device Not Recognized" error pops up from my taskbar. When I click on the message it pops up a "USB Device Not Recognized" window which displays a list of USB ports, and shows "Unknown Device" for the one where the iPod is connected.
I think its probably USB1.something as opposed to USB2.0 but from what I understand that shouldn't matter.
Can anyone suggest anything ?
I've tried the 5R's as far as I can, and I read through this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=500559&tstart=15
but there didn't seem to be anything conclusive.
Thanks for any help,
Jill

First make sure the latest iTUnes is installed on this work PC, IF your allowed to install things on it, the latest iTunes version is 6.0.4.2 and can be downloaded from the apple site (Hit iPod+iTunes tab at the very top of this web page)
Another thing is what version of windows is the work PC? Is it windows XP Windows 2000 Or windows Me 98? iTunes will only run on XP and 2000

Xbox 360 not fully functional

Hello everyone, I have pretty complicated situation with my xbox 360 and linksys router. I have Linksys WRT54G Version 2 router. I running Firmware Version: v4.21.1, Nov. 6, 2006. I have my xbox wired to port 1 on my router, and my pc is connected by wireless card. Here is the problem, I can log into xbox live while connected to the router. I can play games and send text messages without any problems. However I cannot talk to certain people on my headset, one being a friend who I play with all the time. If I connect my modem directly to my xbox, I can chat with the headset. When I run the xbox live test connection, the test fails at MTU. I got on my router settings and my MTU is 1365. I have increased it, decreased it, and set it to auto, and it still fails the test. I went to security and unchecked the check box for Block Anonymous Internet Requests. Still cannot chat or pass xbox live chat. I have opened up my gaming ports: 88 to 88 UDP 192.168.1.101 3074 to 3074 UDP 192.168.1.101 3074 to 3074 TCP 192.168.1.101 Still effect. I don't know what else to do. My friends NAT is set to open. so it must not be him. I really would like to resolve this problem. Its funny though because I cannot pass the test, yet I can still log in and play online games, text, send voice message, and ect. I just can't chat on headset to certain people. I can chat to some one my head set though. I know it sounds weird but that is what happening. Any help would be appreciated.

I will try to lower the MTU Further, but when the xbox live test fails the MTU test it says the xbox requires 1364 MTU or higher. It must have something to do with the router because when I connect my modem directly to my xbox, then I have no problems.
Hi
maybe the traffic on networking ports after connectin router in between is of some concern?
try enabling a DMZ ip - 192.168.1.101 for the Xbox on router .
and dont mess around much with MTU , cause below 1350 i dont believe it will work anyway.
let me know the status ?

Xbox 360 not working with Airport Express

I have a Airport Extreme router and I just bought a airport express so I can wirelessly relay the signal and hook up my xbox 360 to the express. I put it in WDS mode and it worked fine up until the xbox 360 ran the IP address test. It didn't pass the IP and my settings were on automatic. I thought the Express acts as a extension to the Airport but I guess not. Are there any settings I can change to make this work? Please help.

Same issue you have except I never connected the printer directly to my Mac via the USB. Went straight to the wireless Airport Base Station and connected the printer. Printer is found in "Printer Setup Utility" and connected via "Bonjour", unsure what that is. However the *"Printer Setup Utility"* is asking me to select: *"Print Using"* and giving choices such as CANON BJC-1000 - GIMP-PRINT v5.0.0 beta2. I am unsure what to select. And the printer still doesn't print even with one of these 20 choices selected. Any ideas from anyone?

Itunes does not update playlists properly on the ipod touh 4g - help??

Hi Guys,
Newbie here. Thanks for the help in advance.
I have an ipod touch 4g with the latest 5.1 OS update and the latest itunes installed 10.6.1.7 on my computer.
I usually make and edit playlists on my computer/itunes and then sync it with the ipod.
Lately what itunes has started doing is that it syncs the songs and other things like i want to but when it comes to playlists it will either sync playlists to the ipod with a couple of songs missing from the original playlists or only a couple of songs or just a playlist with no songs . The playlists look fine on the itunes but not on the ipod. The songs are physically there on the ipod and it syncs them fine but not the playlists. Some playlists are okay other are not. No consistency. Sometimes this and sometimes that.
Has anybody got any ideas why it is likely doing this?? software screwup?? some option that i am not selecting or something??

okay, I don't know about the rest, but about the songs never actually loading onto your iPod, I found in another discussion how to fix that. I'm using Windows 7, so I don't know if the steps are the same, but the end result is the same. So go into your Start menu, then into accessories, right click 'Command Prompt' and click 'Run as administrator'. Then type in the following: netsh winsock reset then press Enter. After a few seconds it should tell you to to restart your computer for changes to take effect. Restart your computer, then restart iTunes, then everything should be working fine. It still takes forever sometimes to update the iPod, but eventually it will work. I've had to do this multiple times, so I'd suggest copying & pasting this solution into a notepad or Word document and saving it on your computer, so you don't have to go through the discussions again to find it. This tends to happen to me nearly every day unfortunately Hope this fixes that problem, but I'm not having any of the other problems fortunately, except for removing the artwork of the songs it updates without me asking it too. PS I think my problem may be with iOS 5, because iTunes 10.5 came out before iOS 5, and I think everything was fine before I updated my iPod, but I really don't know where the problem lies

How to NOT have playlists appear on your iPod

So I have an iPod (4th gen) Photo and I have a few playlists in iTunes for movies/TV shows, etc. However, the playlists are showing up on my iPod, even though there is nothing in them (as I can't play video on my iPod). Is there a way to have a playlist not sync with your iPod? Under the Music tab, I tried choosing only the playlists I wanted, but the music that was not in those playlists were deleted. Any suggestions?

Well I sort of figured it out. I just made a playlist that had everything in it, and then unselected the playlists with Movies and TV shows.

XBOX 360 Not Compatable With Other Internets through WRT54G

Well, I've been playing XBOX live on my 360 for a couple of months now. When I try to "party up" with a few of my friends from school though, it says that our internets aren't compatable. I called microsoft not knowing anything about what is going on and they just gave me some letters and numbers. One of them was UDP 3074 and the other one was PCP 3074. One, what do these things mean? Two, why am I having this problem? And three, how can I fix it?

Ipod not recognized by Windows or ITunes (Ipod updater)

My Ipod Nano was being charged when my 2 year old hit the reset button on the computer. After the computer rebooted I found out what happened. Now my Ipod just flashes the Apple logo . . . it does nothing else. Neither windows nor Itunes recognizes that it is connected to the computer. I have tried the 5Rs, but it will not reset (holding down the menu and center button appears to turn the Ipod off, but when you release the buttons the logo starts flashing again). Is there anything that can be done before I go through the hassle of sending it into Apple for repair?
Ipod Nano Windows XP Pro

That is EXACTLY what has happened to mine. I have been on web tech support for 2 days; nothing works. I called Best Buy and talked to tech guy: explained the problem to him and he said it was a hard drive gone bad. He also said that Apple changed their policies and does not still allow them to do any more than just reset the iPod; otherwise it has to be sent back to Apple.
If you get an answer that really helps, I'd love to hear it!!

My iPod is not recognized by my car during iPod integration

When I connect my iPod to my car, it does not recognize the iPod as a media device. It recognizes several other people's iPods, iPads, and iPhones, and my home computer still recognizes it and syncs just fine. Help please!!!

Try resetting it by doing the steps in the link below:

If that doesn't help, I would try restoring the iPod and then resyncing your music. Try the iPod with your stereo again and see what happens.

Why is my 5G iPod not recognized by Xbox 360?

It's been probably over a year (maybe 2?) since I've plugged my 5G ipod (firmware v1.3, model PA002LL) into my 360, but in the past it's worked fine. However, last night I was in the mood to listen to some tunes while playing xbox; but, when I plugged, it in my xbox would not recognize it. The xbox will charge my ipod, but it will not show the device as being connected to it. So, to make sure it wasn't an xbox issue, I plugged in an ipod shuffle, which was detected by the xbox right away.
I then called my brother and asked him to plug his 5G ipod (firmware v1.3) into his xbox 360 to see if it would be detected...of course, it was detected. So, this leads me to believe it is an issue with my ipod. I originally was going to try and downgrade the firmware back to 1.2.1, however, the fact that my brother's ipod works fine with his xbox360 leads me to believe it is not a firmware issue.
Has anyone else had similar experiences? If so, have you found a resolution, or do you have any ideas as to what I should try? My ipod has been working like a charm since I bought it 2 or 3 years ago up until this little quirk. Also, I will be plugging my ipod into my bro's xbox 360 tomorrow night, to verify that my ipod still won't be recognized.
Thanks!

Eh, it's not really a glitch, it's just Apple changed something with the firmware along the way (probably going to 1.3), and Microsoft never did anything to try to keep it up to date with Apple's new firmware.
A Microsoft rep at my work said it was more Apple's fault because Microsoft tried to make a fix or new download to let the new firmware work, but "Apple didn't do that for them". But again, he's only a rep and I don't really believe it. Why would Apple not want to make their player supportable for Xbox? It's not like Apple makes game consoles.
I just think Microsoft didn't go out of their way to stay up to date with the iPod firmware, and you know they have their Zune which they're trying to promote so I'm sure they're in no rush to try to make iPod support work again for a while. This is unfortunate, cause I love the Xbox 360, but no way am I getting a Zune haha. Microsoft makes a great game console, Apple makes the best portable media devices, why can't they just get along? haha oh well.

Ipod Classic 160 GB not Recognized by Itunes

Itunes does not recognize my Classic Ipod 160 GB. I have tried all the suggestions offered by apple. Any advice?

I had the same problem with my iPod classic 80 GB. I spent an hour on the phone with Apple support this morning. It is interesting that I could still sync my iPhone and an older iPod, just not the Classic - so I suspected either a hardware or Mac software issue. The solution (I think) is that the permission in OS X for the device is not recognized. After restoring my iPod to factory settings, and completely deleting and reloading a new copy of iTunes, I am now able to get my Mac to recognize this iPod. Following the instructions found here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8342.html
I was able to add permission for the "administrator" to have read and write privileges on this device. That seems to have solved the problem. Thanks to Ryan at Apple Expert for the troubleshooting. Good luck!

Ipod touch is not recognized by itunes

Why is my ipod touch is not recognized by itunes? I have tried everything that the troubleshooting guide says and nothing works. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Just what have you tried. There are many Apple articles on the subject and it easy to miss one or more. Did it work before? Did you do anything to the computer since it last worked? oDoes the iPod work OK? Have you tried:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
iPod not recognized in 'My Computer' and in iTunes for Windows
iPod: Does not appear in Windows or iTunes and Device Manager is empty
