A few days ago I had no problem with my iPod syncing to iTunes. I would connect the iPod to my computer as usual and it would appear under devices. But now my iPod won’t sync to iTunes, I tried updating iTunes and even different usb ports but my iPod still will not sync, help me please.
Try reseting your iPod. press and hold the center button and the top menu button for a few seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. This may take several tries.

Other things to try:
1.The iPod battery might need to be recharged.
2.Disconnect other USB devices from your computer and connect iPod to a different USB 2.0 port on your computer (not on your keyboard)
3.Restart your computer and reconnect iPod to your computer.
4.Download and install (or reinstall) the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes.

Oh my God thank you so much this Ipod is like the only thing good about my life sad hu well I was starting to worry it broke yey thanks.
These directions worked. First the re-boot, then add the new version of ITunes and finally shut down PC and restart. Thanks for the help!!
thanks so much! i resetted my ipod and now it’s working!
Re-Installed latest version, and rebooted several, several times. Followed all the instructions and it STILL won’t sync.
I’m scared to try anything else, because my backup files have been destroyed thanks to Sharepod. I’m scared to lose my music/video files.
I really don’t know what else to do.
I have the ipod touch & i restored the whole ipod and now I can’t get any of the music from my ITunes to sync! I am so frustrated!
Lifesaver! Thanks!
