Windows 10: Getting an "iPod Service error on iTunes 10.0.

I am trying to install old versions of iTunes so I can downgrade my iPhone 4. (iTunes 10.0) However, when I set it up, halfway through the installation I get an error message "iPod Service failed to start. Make sure you have sufficent privliges." I have tried running it as admin, restarting my pc, deleting apple apps and reinstalling it, you name it. The only thing I have not tried is completely deleting the apple services (in services.msc) Does anybody have any solutions to this?



Note: Please do not reply with solutions that are BIG changes, such as reinstalling windows. This is my aunt's computer. I just have an account on it.

iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows

HI THERE,

I HAVE RECENTLY UPGRADED TO WINDOWS 10 ON MY NEW LAPTOP.

I HAVE SINCE TRIED TO SYNC MY IPOD WITH ITUNES, BUT ALWAYS GET AN ERROR "AN IPOD HAS BEEN DETECTED, BUT COULD NOT BE IDENTIFIED PROPERLY" WHEN I CONNECT MY IPOD TO MY COMPUTER.

IT ALSO DOESN'T APPEAR UNDER MY DEVICES ON THIS PC APP.

I HAVE THE LATEST ITUNES VERSION, AS WELL AS HAVING FOLLOWED ALL THE ITUNES HELP STEPS REGARDING THIS ERROR, BUT STILL CAN'T SEEM TO CONNECT.

CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE?

THANX

MALCOLM

iPad/iPod not recognized in iTunes/Windows 10

I have an iPad 3 and a 4th Gen iPod, neither of which will show up in iTunes on Windows 10 Anniversary Update. I've tried two different sync cables and 3 different USB ports, and I've re-installed iTunes. Apple Mobile Device Service, Bonjour Service, iPod Service all running, but iTunes does not open automatically when I connect a device.

Both of these devices spend most of their time in very specific roles (iPad sits in a kiosk as a print-release station for a copier, the iPod connects to our PBX via the headphone jack for music on hold — long story there) and only rarely come back to my desk to sync. Both synced without issue about 4 1/2 months ago. I am able to use Windows Explorer to browse the pictures stored on both devices as if they were digital cameras (the iPad prompts me to Allow this first) and they both show up in the "Portable Devices" category in Device Manager with reasonable names.

Any ideas?

 

Itunes doesn't recognize my ipod

My iTunes used to recognize my ipod, but it's not now.

I get the following error: An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again.

I have done this several times, but it's still not seeing it.

I have also deleted and reinstalled iTunes on my computer. And restarted both devices.

I also have plugged it into another computer with iTunes and that computer recognizes it. So it's not the iPod.

About a month ago I did install Windows 10, so I don't know if that is affecting it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
