Very clunky software for the huge price tag Apple charge!! Also v. Annoyed that for the amount I paid the ipod will not charge up properly from a USB device and no other charger came with the bundle. Surely this is daylight rippery! After an Windows XP service pack update Ipod not being recognised on as a USB device. tried reinstalling the drivers but Windows has a problem finding them.

Although with the iTouch, I also went from a Dell laptop to a macbook (sept). I gave my youngest brother my nano and I have not been able to have it show up in iTunes either. Finally, after him trying for a whole day, and several attempts on my part, I've realized what the problem is: the formatting. Right now my nano is formatted for windows. Now, I have yet figured out how to reformat it. I'm not sure if restoring all the settings will in fact get me a reformatted nano, or not. So, just see if the formatting is consistent with the computer you are using. Hope that helps some.... I got an iPod nano almost 3 years ago, and since then have upgraded to an iPod touch.

I spent countless hours trying every trick Apple suggested, and the last try was going to be uninstalling iTunes until I found this site. I turned OFF my printer, plugged in my iPod, it opened iTunes, and it said it needed to be restored. I restored, re-synced and we are in GREAT shape! Thank YOU!!!
