Hi cuteshey,
Welcome on the site of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.
Solution 1: Update the drivers
(1) the Device Manager open, either by right clicking on computer and then click on manage, and finally on Device Manager, or by typing devmgmt.msc in the box then find (or run) on the bottom of the start menu and press ENTER.
(2) find the ipod, he (should) be listed under digital cameras, right click it and choose "update driver software".
(3) select "Browse my computer for driver software".
(4) for the location (you must have already installed itunes) use C:\Program Files\Common Apple Mobile Device Support\Drivers (replace C: for what is the letter of your system drive), and then click Next, windows will find the driver here and continue to update the driver
(5) after the update is complete, click Finish to close the dialog box, then disconnect the ipod and plug it in again.Solution 2: This seems to be a known issue with the iPhone and iPod touch from Apple, I would suggest also allows you to check the link that contains the iPhone and iPod touch: Disabling digital camera notification in Windows Vista

I click on setup for itunes and the intall process occurs and then it gets to a point and a window opens and says that I have to install the software for the DVD/CD drive can work. In the Panel, I clicked on sounds and Audio devices, click on hardware and off the player, still does not work. I do a search for software and a message shows a digital camera, that is what I have. When I click to close the window of the hardware, another one appears just after. Then the installation process continues, but once done, I get a message that errors have occurred in the facility. I could send an album to itunes library, but I couldn't see where to add the music to the Ipod Touch 3. I think that there should be a "Deputy" which I don't see. Maybe the errors. I did it on my other computer a long time ago, but this computer no longer works, also with XP, no problem at this time here to operate.
I went to Microsoft after clicking in Control Panel - portable multimedia devices - and he says that the my Ipod is not need of software that it is ready to go.
I tried with and without the Ipod ports in USB 2.0 ports and also tried to restart the computer with connected. When I first plug it into a port, it makes the sound "recognizes the new hardware' and it says IPOD. It appears in the 'Safely remove' icon in the lower tray right, it's another icon, not sure what it is. I just plugged it before submitting this and no message "recognizes the new hardware" appears and no icon in the status bar. I can't hear the sound it makes with new hardware, but then he does sound like I have that I have not disconnected.

iPod touch 6 G camera - no optical zoom?
Hello
Please can someone confirm that the 6G iPod touch camera has no optical zoom?
So it's just "digital" zoom for photos?
(I guess it's true zoom for video only due to the low resolution).
Thank you very much
Correct, the camera in the 6G iPod touch doesn't have a telephoto lens. The elements in the lens of the camera move only to focus.

IPod Touch 4 G Sync problem Windows XP SP 3
My iPod Touch 4 G does not sync with my iTunes library. iTunes freezes and no longer just by showing that it is the first song synchronization. I have Windows XP Home Edition service pack 3, iTunes 10.4.1 and iOS 4.3.5 on my iPod. I have to burn my iTunes library to a CD and synchronize it with my iPod on another computer. My home PC is about 6 years but short grand. iTunes works great, can listen and download anything on my PC. Just can't sync with my iPod. I've tried everything. I think that maybe the USB issue someone else mentioned but I don't know. Maybe, I need to install a USB card that is not connected to my motherboard.
Any suggestions?

I tried different cables, ports, computers (it is taken over by other computers with the same iTunes), I uninstalled iTunes several times. I get a prompt my iPod on my laptop is looking to access the photos and videos of my iPod. I always agree (or allow the option says) I'm starting to think that it maybe that my computer can access only the pictures and videos on my iPod and that maybe why iTunes is not pick it up. I have movies on my iPod to my iTunes in sync but I'm really grasp what either. I used the same computer connection, iTunes and iPod for about a year and all of a sudden it happens. I have no idea why this is happening.

My problem is I have an iPod Touch 2 gen and when I plug in windows cannot detect it. If I go to post work is not in the list, or if I go to Device Manager, it is still not detected not even in portable devices or controllers Bus USB, but the iPod is charging. It happened after a restored building and now I need to connect it to iTunes, but it does not work. I tried with Windows 7, 8 and 10, and I don't know what to do at the moment.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
I understand that the iPod Touch 2 connects not with Windows 7, 8 or 10 and I will be happy to answer your query. Let me ask you;
- IPod Touch 2 appears in iTunes?
- You receive an error message?
This could be due to problem of incompatibility with iTunes. Given that iPhone 5s connects without any problems, you can refer to the suggestions provided by Apple in the link below.
iPod touch not appearing is not in iTunes
If the problem persists, I would ask that you check with Apple support.
Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

iPod touch generation 5 does nothing when connected to the computer
Hello
I had problems with my iPod touch Gen 5 running on iOS 9.2 is not connected to my computer. Boredom? I plug it into a wall adapter and it costs. I plug it into the computer and it does nothing. I tried all USB drives (who all work, as my computer is fairly new, I got it late may last year (2015), and I tested it with my mouse wireless.)
I tried to restart my PC and my iPod. My computer is a Toshiba Satellite C50D, which is almost a year old and running on Windows 8 (I'm never upgrade to windows 10 no matter how my computer wants me to.)
In addition, if you could contact me general Grievous, it would be nice. I just want to say that I love him<>

iPod touch 6th generation will not be displayed in itunes
So I got an ipod touch 6th generation, brand new today. I have a bunch of songs on my computer I want to put on it, but the ipod will not be displayed in itunes.
I'm on Windows 10, the latest version of itunes and I tried to restart the ipod and the computer several times in order to put in place. I deleted the apple driver put it into every usb port, reset all warnings dialog, I reset the iPod and deleted everything and started around and still nothing.
I think that the problem lies in the fact that I was not prompted to trust the computer. I think I could have been, but the text was gone too fast so I don't know if I clicked on Yes or no. Does anyone have an idea what to do?
