Windows 10 Upgrade. ipod will not sync with iTunes

:Yesterday I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to 10. The upgrade went smoothly until I attempted to sync my ipod with iTunes. It synced just fine with 8.1 It will NOT sync with iTunes in Windows 10.

I have spent 8 hours going between 4 MS techs and two Apple techs to try every step possible to get my ipod nano 5th generation device to sync with iTunes. This includes:

1. My laptop is a new totally powerful Toshiba, no limitations with the computer. All drivers were checked to be current / best.

2. Diagnostics in Windows for Apple devices gone through and reset as suggested.

3. iTunes was uninstalled and reinstalled. All Apple fixes possible were attempted. Ipod reset.

The 4th MS tech now agrees I need to DUMP 10 and return to 8.1 ! Can you believe this! MS - get to work on fixing this bug! Thousands need help!

 

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?
