no recognizable iPod in iTunes

My iPod classic does not appear in iTunes

If possible, try another USB docking cable, to rule out a defective cable as the cause.

When you connect the iPod, watch the screen of the iPod.  "Say 'do not disconnect' or 'Connected' or give other indications of a connection" or does show only the symbol of battery?  Or not it reacts at all to be connected?

Are you using a Mac or a Windows PC?

  • Impossible to find music on ipod onto itunes 12.4.3.1

    I've just updated iTunes to version 12.4.3.1

    I have no idea why I continue to update my iTunes when the "old" worked better for me

    I always use my concert 160 iPod as it holds most of the music

    It recognizes my device, but I am not able to use the search function to search for songs on the device to edit a new playlist.

    His pain in the rear to scroll 16 283 mp3 files when it used to be a piece of cake to just use the search bar to find what I wanted.

    I do drag and drop my files because I didn't add music through multiple-CPU, so no its not synchronized with a device so the common suggestion of my regular iTunes library search will not work

    How can I use the search function to search again in my iPod on iTunes? Or is anyone know what version of iTunes I should get a download at these updates because no else that make the program less useful for me

    Click on the magnifying glass in the search box and make sure that the entire library search is unchecked.

    If it is not then use iTunes Feedback and ask to search for devices synchronized manually be reinstated.

  • Can't remove my iPod in itunes podcasts

    I download Radio 4 podcasts for my ipod Nano.  The part of the subscription will easily and podcasts download without problems.  But when I want to delete a podcast because I have already heard, it remains on the ipod or downloads again the next time I connect the ipod to iTunes.

    I change to delete 'manual' on the summary page and then I go to Podcasts on my ipod page.  I click the program, and then make a right click to click on the button Delete.   The program then is more present on the iTunes page, but is often always here on ipod or it downloads the next time I connect.

    I see a lot of other people have the same problem, but when I clicked on them, nothing came.

    Why not use the built in options to automatically include a limited selection articles unplayed will then remove themselves automatically during the next synchronization if they played?

  • Can not remove the iPod with itunes Podcast

    It seems that I can delete is no longer my ipod via itunes podcast less 12.4. I have a 3rd gen ipod (no, I'm not buying a version more recent one it still works fine) I have manually manage my music and podcast on. Before I could just put all my podcast in a playlist "podcast" and once I am done listening to them I could + option + delete them both the playlist and my ipod. Now when I do that, they only deletes the list of reading (it's not free all the space on the ipod just do 'orphans' podcast on it). Anyone have any ideas?

  • Mini Ipod and itunes

    Hello I recently helped someone with his powerbook from 2006.

    He has a small ipod and wants to get music on this subject. He's already got a lot, but when you plug in the ipod it looks like a USB key with nothing in it except 4 songs, it moves from itunes.

    ITunes opens directly when pluggin the ipod, but there is no music library, one inside, that the ipod does not appear and look like empty

    Someone has an idea of what goes wrong?

    Thank you

    It looks like a USB key with nothing in it except 4 songs, it moves from itunes.

    If you can see songs on iPod using Finderrecords, music files are just "random" files that have been manually added to the iPod in disk mode.  The iPod software does not treat them as songs.

    Songs are loaded onto the iPod using iTunes.  What version of iTunes it works?  It says 'Mac OS X (10.7.5)' in your profile information, but maybe it's not HIS version, because a PowerBook can only run 10.5.8 (at the latest), unless it's a mistake, it's actually a MacBook (Intel processor).  In both cases, this could mean that the iTunes version is not the latest version 12.x, which is a little different from earlier versions.

    I can provide more details, once you confirm the version of iTunes, but to summarize, the first step is to add songs to iTunes library.  Once the songs he wants on the iPod in the Mac iTunes library, it can load songs manually by dragging songs from the iTunes music library to the iPod (as it appears in iTunes).  OR, it can set up Auto Sync to iTunes keep the iPod "in phase" with the Mac iTunes music library (or a selected part of it).

  • How can I manually add songs on my Ipod via Itunes and keep my apple music songs too?

    Hello

    I am a music producer and I had trouble manual addition of my songs on my Ipod. I looked everywhere online for an answer and I can't find one. When I try to drag and drop my songs on my IPod in Itunes it gives me the image on my mouse in saying he will add it, but it doesn't do anything when I drop.

    Several online forums supposed to go into the settings of my Ipod and check "Icloud Music Library". but I have an account of appple music and don't want to lose my music, I downloaded there, which is what tells me my Ipod is going to happen.

    I am looking for a way to have my Apple music and manually add music on my Ipod even.

    Thank you

    Caleb

    If you enable the Apple music on any content already on device can be merged with your Apple's music library. To add more songs to the device, add them to your library, and then download them to the device. You may not transfer directly from iTunes, but you should still be able to add one of your songs.

  • Used to synchronize iPod to itunes

    My computer will not sync my Ipod to ITunes.

    Sync with iTunes is usually on one way, from iTunes to iPod library, not "iPod to iTunes.  Can clarify you what your question?  You ask about how to transfer data on the iPod to computer?  Or you ask about setting up automatic iTunes library to iPod synchronization?

  • 12.4.3.1 iTunes does not recognize iPod Nano

    After updating iTunes to version 12.4.3.1, it can't find my iPod. It simply does not detect it. I tried solving the problems, and the iPod service is running.

    The iPod is old, but is ideal for listening to audio books.

    I've tried different USB ports without success.

    My laptop is running Windows 64-bit 10.

    Apple have stopped supporting the old iPods?

    Any ideas?

    All the old iPod, iPhone and iPad should be supported in the current generation of iTunes.

    Probably tell you this troubleshooting? If iTunes does not your iPad, iPhone or iPod - Apple Support.

    If that didn't work, try the second box in this one: troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

  • Connection of a fifth generation iPod to iTunes in Windows 10

    Hello world

    I'm really racking me my brains on the subject. My good friend has already been browsing these forums to try to find an answer to his question.

    She has iPod fifth generation, using Windows 10 and the latest version of iTunes on a Dell Inspiron laptop.

    Following an upgrade to iTunes, her cell phone is not able to see your iPod as a device. I can force the Device Manager to recognize the iPod temporarily by uninstalling it and then looking for the hardware changes. When iTunes is open, it gives an error message indicating that the iPod in question is not recognized, then it disappears from this PC.

    When we uninstall iTunes, the computer can see the i pod as a storage, only my friend then impossible to download its music from iTunes account. When we try to install an older version of iTunes, it says that the library was created in a newer version of iTunes and therefore will not be open.

    What this means, is that my friend is not able to add or change the music on his iPod, or download new music from iTunes library to listen to in his car.

    Does anyone know a fix for this or she's going to have to buy a new iPod?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Start with a clean install of iTunes. If it still seems to be a driver issue after that will show the device in iTunes if it is in disc mode?

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    The more information box has direct links with the current and recent if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with third-party software.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • Try to sync the music from iPod to iTunes library

    I had to put a new hard drive in my computer, I so had to reinstall iTunes and basically start from scratch.  I have 757 songs on my iPod that I'm moving to my iTunes library so I can play the songs in iTunes.  What's weird, it's iTunes recognizes my iPod and shows the 757 songs with the title "On My Device", but it does not show the songs in the 'My music' library, which is the way I put it in place previously until I changed the hard drive.  I tried to hit the sync button, who has always worked in the past, and nothing happens.

    Does anyone have advice on how I could do this?  I've been playing with it for 3 hours trying to figure it out, and I'm so frustrated.

    Just for reference, I use an old school 2nd generation 8 GB iPod Touch, iOS 4.2.1

    Thank you!

  • Why can't copy files to my iPod from iTunes

    I have not the slightest idea of what is happening.

    I used an iPod Touch for years (I now have a 5th generation Touch running IOS 9.3.5).)  But this week when I tried to copy a file (mp3, unprotected file, a record of a sermon) from iTunes on my iTouch, I got this message: "Some of the files have been copied not in the iPod"IPod touch guys"because iCloud music library is activated on the iPod."

    Then I tried to copy other files to my iTouch - some of them I bought music from the iTunes sotre files - and I got the same message.  Apparently, I can't move my app on my iTouch iTunes files.

    The only different thing I do now is I'm trying the Apple music, but I have not changed the settings on my iTouch.  How can I solve this problem?

    Hello

    You cannot manually manage your music when you use the music library of music to Apple /iCloud. When you subscribe to apple music, iTunes you library is analyzed to determine what can be matched or must be downloaded. This will make you the music available on your iOS devices to listen to or download.
