ipod nano and itunes 12.9.1.4

It may just be a matter of patience.

Technically, iTunes and the iPod nano will still talk to each other. However, I have noticed that after an iTunes update, it can take a while before any iPod is recognised by iTunes.

• Make sure you re-start your computer and iTunes
• Also, before connecting the iPod to your computer, turn the iPod off completely and then re-start it. I don't have access to my nano at the moment, but it should just be a matter of holding the power button down so that the iPod powers off. Once it has, hold the power button down again until it begins its power on procedure
• Connect the iPod up to iTunes
• Wait for at least two minutes to see if the iPod is recognised

If necessary, go through this procedure a second time. If it doesn't work after that, we will have to review the situation.

I finally figured this out last night! It all came down to turning the iPod off and on about four times, and then reconnecting to computer/iTunes. The icon for the iPod finally popped up on iTunes. Thanks for sharing this, as

you were right on the money.
