Invisible iPod!
August 16, 2007 10:55 AM
My friend's 1GB iPod Nano is recognized in iTunes, but only kind-of...
When the iPod is plugged into a computer (multiple computers, I've checked), Windows recognizes it, and shows it My Computer, but iTunes will not display it in the device list.
When I used iTunes' diagnostics, it says that it detects an iPod connected, and when I completely formatted the thing, iTunes detected it, restored it from scratch, and then? Poof, it's gone again. I delved into Google, Yahoo, and Apple's forums, but can't find any similar situations.
I've done all the boilerplate multiple times, on multiple computers, and I hate to relegate a device that's just over a year old to the trash heap. Any thoughts?
