Hello, I am having some trouble getting my computer to detect my iPod. When
I first recived the iPod I could connect it to any of the USB ports on my
labtop and it would be dected by my computer, I was able to succesfully use
the device. However, recintly, I have tried a number of times to connect it
to the computer, and it will not detect it. It should be noted that I have
been through the USB troubleshooting guide and it hasnt helped. And help or
suggestions would be greatly appreaciated, thank you.

I think this will work:

1. Make sure your computer meets the requirements:

iPod shuffle Requirements:

Macintosh or Windows PC with a USB port*
Mac OS X 10.2.8 or Mac OS X 10.3.4 or later (Mac OS X v10.3.6 or later is
recommended for connecting iPod shuffle to a low power USB port, like on
certain keyboards and non-powered hubs)
Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or Windows XP Service Pack 2
iTunes 4.7.1 or later
QuickTime 6.4 or later
*May require the optional iPod shuffle Dock or a USB extender cable (sold
separately).


iPod and iPod mini Requirements:

Macintosh or Windows PC with Firewire or USB 2.0 port
Mac OS X v10.2.8 or 10.3.4 or later for iPod, iPod mini, or iPod photo (Mac
OS X 10.3 - 10.3.3 is not supported with USB)
Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 or Windows XP Service Pack 2
iTunes 4.7 or later
iPhoto 4.0.3 or later recommended for iPod photo for Macintosh
Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or Elements 3.0 or later recommended for iPod
photo for Windows

Download iTunes @ apple.com

2. Run the add hardware wizard in your control panel while your iPod is
connected.
