If I remove itunes and reinstall it will I lose all of my purchased downloads
iPod nano, Windows 8
You will NOT lose any purchased downloads, purchased downloads are under your account and as long as you sign back in with the same account you can pulll everthing back up
I spend several hours removing and reinstalling iTunes, resetting my iPod etc. This worked for me.
1- Open Control Panel
2- Go to Add/Remove Programs
3- Remove Apple Software Updates
4- Remove Apple Mobile Devices
5- Remove iTunes
6 - Re-install iTunes
I found that a few days earlier there was an update on Apple Software Updates and Apple Mobile Device which may have caused some sort of conflict. After I re-installed iTunes all of the above programs were re-installed, my music was there and everything worked fine.
chowski1112 Very many thanks, yours was the only solution that worked, saved the cat from a bruising.
Thanks a million. I had tried simply reinstalling iTunes and Apple Mobile Devices per the instructions by Apple and got nowhere. I even made an apointment with a "genius" at the Apple Store and she was more useless than the web site. I followed your instructions and my iPod Nano 6th generation is now once again recognized by iTunes.
^^ what they said. I wish apple support would say what chowski1112 did. I was super-frustrated and now I'm happy happy.
iPod nano: Error message saying that iPod 'could not be identified properly'
