Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My problem is the following: I just installed ubuntu 13.04 and following the tutorials on the net, I downloaded the 10 tunes to use i pod nano 7. Itunes does not access the store and does not recognize the ipod, what can I do?
Thank you for your help.
iPod nano, Windows 7
Where did you find a Linux version of iTunes?
Hello,
as I said I followed a tutorial on you tube ... this is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jIn1oYa10J0...
I followed all the instructions but I have the problem that iTunes does not access the store and does not recognize ipod connected ...
bye

In the comments it seems several others have had the same problem and not found a solution. You have two separate problems. The iTunes Store problem may be your firewall, try running it temporarily wide open and see if it works.
For the second reload your USB drivers and see if that helps. Be sure you use a primary port on your computer as the iPod has to have full power.
It is not long that I use Ubuntu, but I know that does not use firewall or antivirus (I have not installed).
I also found that when I try to open itunes, the pc turns off .... how it is possible that the download has been successful and, at the same time, not be able to use it?
thanks for the assistance

Think you need to ask more questions on the Ubuntu support forums rather than here.
What you are doing is running the Windows version of iTunes under wine emulation and this is certainly not supported and adds significant layers of complexity
You might get the music player to work provided you also install Quick time as well however access to the store will certainly not work as that requires Webkit to power the back end .
Also you will need to check you have installed all the media codecs as Linux distros don't include MP3/AAC support as standard.
Contrary to general belief MP3 is commercial software and not Freely (GNU) licensed.
You may have to add further repositories (download sites) to get some of the software .
Again the Ubuntu guys are your best bet for those
thank for the support, I'll will follow the advice and I will inform you how did it goes
ubuntu 13.04 compatibility
