Re: iPod Touch does not appear in iTunes

Kyle,

Your suggestion worked. How did you know something as arcane as this, Kyle?

I found the support on Apples web-site worse than useless, as the trail of
articles often simply referred to the next in the chain and didn't actually
say anything. Often the second article merely referred back to the one that
contained the reference to the 2nd article!!

Thank you to all who responded,

Michael Hawkins.

Hi Michael

I learnt it in the modd/hacking community for iPhone and iPod Touch I
had to use it couple of times in the early days of modding my iPod
Touch

Those applications that were on the iPhone should have always been on iPod Touch

Hi all

Reboot your iPod Touch holding the top (power) and home buttons BUT
release the top button 10 seconds into it (right after the screen goes
dark) and continue to hold the home button until iTunes detects the
phone in recovery mode. The iPhone screen will appear to be off, but
start iTunes if not started yet.

 Hi Michael,

 Try the steps in these kbase articles:

 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747

 You will probably find you need to do this:
 If an iPhone or iPod touch is not recognised in iTunes on a Mac, the Apple 
 Mobile Device Service may need to be removed and reinstalled.

 If the issue continues after using the troubleshooting assistant, follow 
 these steps to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service on Mac OS 
 X. Note that you'll need authenticate with an administrator account and 
 password to complete these steps.
1. In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it 
 to the Trash.
2. Move the iTunes icon to the Trash
3. Choose Go  Go to Folder.
4. Enter /System/Library/Extensions and click Go.
5. Locate the file AppleMobileDevice.kext and drag it to the Trash.
6. Choose Go  Go to Folder.
7. Enter /Library/Receipts/ and click Go.
8. Locate the file AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg and drag it to the 
 Trash. If prompted, authenticate with the admin password.
9. Choose Finder  Empty Trash and restart the computer.
10. Download and install the current version of iTunes:
 www.apple.com/itunes/

 Cheers,
 Ronni

 I have tried removing all other usb devices; connecting to each of the usb
 ports; turning iPod off and on again; restarting computer and reconnecting
 iPod; and repairing permissions and then going through all the previous
 steps. Deleted every iTunes and iPod plist I could find.

 Thank you,
