Q: unable to synch iPod Classic with iTunes library
PLEASE HELP.
Been some 2 months that I am having this issue.
When starting iTunes, then connecting my iPod, the iPod does not show up, not detected on screen.
Problem started when I went thru FULL iTunes application update, as required by Apple.
Run all checks, run diagnostics (device synch tests). Nothing. Says: No iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad can be found.
Interesting to note that it says: iPod touch, not classic. The one I got is old iPod Classic 80 GB.
As I say it was all good, till done the Update to Itunes library application. Then went nuts!
Please help, so i can synch the new music downloaded in my library into the iPod.
Thank you
iPod classic, Windows 7

Some of those iTunes device-related commands apply to iOS computing devices, not the media player iPods. So not being found may not be applicable for your iPod.
When you connect it to your computer's USB port, watch the iPod's screen. Does it say "Connected" or "Do not disconnect" or give other indication of data connection? Or does it only show the battery charging symbol? Or does it not react at all to being connected?
Since this problem started after updating iTunes, you may want to use the procedure to completely remove iTunes and related software components.
Be sure to remove the listed components of iTunes installation in the described order. Then download and install the latest version from here
