CopyTrans Doctor Frequently Asked Questions

  • My iPod is not detected by CopyTrans Doctor
    Please go through this checklist and email us if the problem remains:
    • Verify that your iPod is properly connected to the PC and turned on.
    • When your iPod is connected to your computer, try to close and reopen the program.
    • Try to connect your iPod to your PC using another USB port.
    • If you connect your iPod to your computer through a USB hub, try to connect your iPod directly to your computer.
    • Try to connect your iPod to another computer to see if the problem comes from the computer or from the iPod.
    • If your computer is a Sony VAIO, please let us know and we'll provide you specific solutions for that computer.
    • Our programs do not recognize Mac formated iPods. To check if your iPod is Mac formatted, browse your iPod menu as follows: Settings->About->Format and have a look at its formatting. If you don't see "Format", and "Model" is the last info shown in your iPod's screen, you'll know it is Mac formatted. If it is Mac formatted you will need additional software to read it such as MacDrive (won't work for the iPod Touch and iPhone).
    • Have a look at these Apple hints.
    • Try to reset your iPod as per these instructions (this will not modify its content).
    • If you are using a virtual drive software on your computer, try to deactivate it to avoid any attribution letter conflict.
    • If none of the above hints helps, please indicate us the program the problem occurs with and download this program, run it and click the "Save log files" button to create an archive named "CopyTrans_Suite_Logs.zip" containing all our programs log files.
