Ashley Posted 8 May 2015 Share Posted 8 May 2015 Just purchased a new iPod today, came home plugged it into my Laptop however it isn't showing up on iTunes? Does anyone know how I can solve this? When I plug the iPod into the Computer the little noise sound comes up recognising that something has just been plugged in then my Antivirus says what do you want to do with 'iPod' etc... The help on iTunes isn't very helpful at all to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DB11 Posted 8 May 2015 Share Posted 8 May 2015 5TH Generation Touch When you plug it into the computer iTunes should open automatically and prompt you whether to set it up as a new iPod or whether to restore it from a previous backup. If you set it up as a new one then you name it etc. then can start adding songs. Try restarting your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't happen mate, only the what do you want to do with this Ipod comes up, and the windows files open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket-Ron Posted 8 May 2015 Share Posted 8 May 2015 Try a different USB port. Or wiggle the lock on and off for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Fynwy Posted 8 May 2015 Share Posted 8 May 2015 Chuck the iPod in the bin and buy something that actually works or buy a MacBook that's what Apple want you to do [emoji6] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted 8 May 2015 Author Share Posted 8 May 2015 Sorted it. Basically you have to uninstall everything to do with Apple on your PC then reinstall and it works. FINALLY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
