531joshua Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I've just bought myself a new laptop recently and I am no longer using my old PC. I have an Ipod which I used on my old PC and had a library of songs on my old PC which I no longer want, however they are still on my Ipod. I know, as my friend has done this, that if you re-boot your computer and plug your Ipod in, all the songs automatically get wiped unless you save them before you re-boot. Now, on my laptop I have downloaded Itunes and have a fresh start of new songs in the library of which I want on my Ipod. However, when I plug my Ipod into my laptop for some reason the laptop doesn't detect the Ipod.If you have any knowledge on why my Ipod is not being detected by my laptop, any info would be greatly appreciated!Thanks, Josh.

Tomm Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Possibly, how would I go about doing that?Thanks.Er dunno if it's on a PC. On my Mac you can go into iTunes and iPod preferences (only when it's plugged in, mind) and then there's a button for reset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Jennings Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Hold Action + Play/pause at the same time. then connect the USB it should have a tick on the screen. Take the songs off via iTunes script. Restore the iPod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
