I recently managed the content of my iPod Nano 2nd generation using my iMac running Monterey. Later that day I updated Monterey and now the iPod is no longer recognised in Finder or Music. I know the iPod is old but I still use it. Can anybody help?
I’ve actually solved the issue today after a month of trying. Reset the iPod! Finder then recognised it.
However in Music I could not do anything as it said it was open in another window which I knew it wasn’t. Someone in another thread on here suggested relaunching Finder and that resolved the problem. Now everything works just fine.

Hi dijay1,
Your iPod should still be recognized by Finder.
Try starting your Mac to safe mode and connecting your iPod that way:
Start up your Mac in safe mode
Starting to safe mode should rule out any interference from software that's starting with your Mac.
Let us know if that helps.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
