How Do I Get My Computer to Recognize My Original Ipod
I KNOW THE SOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's not the computer it's the ipod
hold down the menu and the center button for about 15 second and that reboots it (don't worry you'll keep all your files) and then plug it into the computer again, it should turn on!
There's many reason why those two doesn't seem to work. But thanks to Kioskea.net, I was able to find you the answers. 1. Your computer or iTunes is not to blame. Blame your iPod. If the first option doesn't work, here's my second option: 2. Plug in your iPod, and put it into Disk Mode. Hold the menu button, and let it reboot (Don't forget to leave it plugged in) Hope this helps!!!
Hold your menu button down for about 15 seconds, let it reboot, and plug it back it in to your computer again, your computer should then recongnize your iPod.
Now in your computer, go to your Control Panel. In your Control Panel, open System and click the Hardware tab. Once there click Device Manager. Find Universal Serial Bus Control, right- click Apple Mobile Device USB Driver and uninstall it. (If if's not installed with iTunes, get it)
If all these doesn't work, I guess you could just pray and unplug and plug your iPod.
I had the exact same problem as everyone who mentioned that they took all of the advice given from reinstalling iTunes to uninstalling drivers and all the other junk. My problem was (and is) my cord. I couldn't figure out the problem for WEEKS until (just now) when I started to pull out my cord and noticed that suddenly my iPod was recognized and unrecognized just as quickly. I tested it again and discovered that when I attached it, I couldn't hook it up completely to where it snapped into place or the iPod would just charge and not get recognized or sync. Basically I need to buy a new cord. Unfortunately, I took the advice of others and uninstalled a USB port...now I can't reinstall the main one. That's a whole other list of issues for another day. So, to anyone who's tried uninstalling and reinstalling things, a word of advice, CHECK YOUR CORD FIRST.
IVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR AGES WITH MY NANO, APPLE SUPPORT DIDNT HELP.
GO TO DEVICE MANAGEMENT WHILST YOUR IPOD IS CONNECTED, DISABLE IPOD USB CONNECTION. AFTER THIS, GO TO ADD HARDWARE AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS.

hi, update the version of iTunes that you are using then connect the iPod. this should fix the problem.
Hi, I had this problem also. It would not show up on iTunes or windows explorer. I tried the select/menu reset to no avail. Then I tried disk management under the computer management in control panel. The partition didn't have a name or letter but it did show the memory, however it wouldn't let me assign a letter either. Next I found the device in the device manager under disk drives and I disabled then reenabled and still didn't work. By now I was pulling my hair out and ready to give up. I had one more try and looked further down the list in storage volumes and there it was disabled. I reenabled it and everything is fine now. I didn't expect to see the ipod listed as a devce and a storage volume but there it was. Hope this helps someone else..
Put all your purchased songs on a flashdrive, unistall iTunes, if your songs don't appear on iTunes you'll have all the songs on the flashdrive.
this Problem Happened to me as well. I tryed a differnt usb port on my HP computer it worked!! try it on your mac. good luck.
ok so I tryed the menu and center button thing bit all it does is say do not disconnect. its been like that all day

Hey, Windows 7 or Apple software updates something worked out good. Once I updated the software. After few minutes the OS said installing ipod USB device. It recognized my IPOD shuffle
I had this problem too, and what I did was go to my computer's Control Panel and typed "usb" into the search, and went to the device manager. Then, with my iPod connected to my computer, I updated the iPod usb port and it worked just fine after that.
Also for anyone that needs to uninstall and reinstall itunes to make sure I didn't lose the folder the music was stored in I just renamed the folder before uninstall then after reinstalling shut itunes down, delete the itunes (empty) folder and rename your old one. Cheers, Chris.
BINGO!!! ok so I went to my "computer management" then I clicked on "device manager". I found my i-pod then uninstalled it. I then plugged in my ipod once again and it re-installed and Yahtzee!!!! back in service!
Pressing the centre button to reset my ipod worked ,yeppie ..Thank you soooooooo much .
had the same exact problem for the past hour just reinstalled all the itunes apps, bonjour, mobile reader everything unistall all the apple applications on your computor than install itunes should work if not im sorry :/ try it hope it works.
Make sure you hold down the menu key and play or start button down at the same time! The apple should appear as you plug up the IPod after hold down keys for 15 seconds!
ANOTHER POSSIBLE ANSWER!!! I couldn't figure out my problem with this and then I called a friend who solved it very quickly. I was using a 3rd party cord which was no good. It charged but the wire connection for the iPod syncing was not working. I had a spare Apple cord sitting around and used that. Instant fix!!!
