... or else you won't be able to save your file. Even if you chose a different filename! A possible workaround is to create a new file and copy & paste your content.

IPod (Nano 5g) not recognized by Windows XP SP3

Thursday, 31 December 2009 17:40 | Author: Andreas |

I spent the last days restarting, updating and googling to get my IPod Nano (5G) working on Windows XP (+ SP3). It was not recognized by Windows nor by iTunes. To get it work properly I had to

start "msconfig",
choose the "Startup" tab,
"Selective Startup",
"Service" tab,
check "Hide Microsoft services",
disable all services except "Apple Mobile Device" and "IPod Service",
and finally reboot windows.

Finally Windows XP found the IPod, reformated it with vfat32 and from that moment on it was correctly recognized everytime it was connected to the computer.
