I have the same problem with my iPod nano third generation! I have
reinstalled iTunes at least five times and followed all steps on apples site
that is supposed to solve most iPod problems. The iPod works perfectly on XP
computers, and my old iPod nano(first generation) works on both Vista and XP.
I run 32 bit Vista.
The First few times I plugged in the iPod, Vista told me it couldn't find
the correct drivers. After mixing with some things it suddenly told me it had
successfully inststalled drivers for ipod. Surprisingly that didn't solve
anything. When i plug it in all that happens is I get that annoying
"error-message-sound". The iPod don't show up in windows explorer, nor in
iTunes...
Anyone have a clue?

I didn't quite understand the solution posted by Sav... Can someone give a
clearer explanation of it for a noob like me?

I have tried Sav's solution now. Running windows in swedish, but the error
message goes something like this:

A driver was found, but an error was encountered when trying to install it.
<pic. of an USB-cable> USB mass storage device
This action requires an interactive window station.

First question: What on earth is an interactive window station!? Googled the
term in swedish and got zero results!

I just bought a refurbished ipod shuffle. My wife's XP laptop recognized the
ipod immediately but my Vista desktop can't find it; it won't show up in
either the device manager, my computer, or itunes. I have the latest itunes
installed. I'm bummed out! All thoughts welcome.
