A whole slew of iTunes on Windows even with a NEW iPod

So I've been having some minor problems with my iPod Photo. For the last few months whenever I connected it this weird window would appear saying AUTOPLAY with a little progress bar scanning across. It didn't bother me that much, but in the last few days I've upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and things have just gotten a lot worse.
Whenever I connected my iPod with my computer it would just freeze iTunes and usually the windows taskbar. I could literally just unplug the firewire and it would start again. A few seconds after I plugged it in it would freeze again.
If I just left it alone for long enough it would go through that weird autoplay thing again, but for longer and eventually pick up an iPod, but not my iPod, just an IPOD.
I repaired iTunes a few times, but with no effect. I then tried to restore it, and it started to restore (ie. it erased all my music) but then had an 1418 error. And said my iPod was corrupt. After all this I took it to the Apple store today and they gave me a NEW iPod Photo. And it loaded when I installed it, but after I formatted it to Windows all the same old problems started again.
What is going on and what do I need to do to fix this?
Dell 8400   Windows XP  

An update. Things aren't fixed but they are better. Instead of not working at all, if I just leave the iPod for about 15 minutes iTunes eventually pops up and starts an update though. However it's only updating small chunks of music. After about 2 albums added it says there was an error reading the disk or something along those lines and stops. Similar thing happened when pictures are added.

  • Windows ME with a new Ipod 20gb (Photo)

    hi, I've got a big problem and I really need help.I used Winamp to transfer my music on the Ipod (it used to work very well with my old ipod, but it was the first time with the new one) and now everytime I start my Ipod, I have a "folder logo" with an exclamation point and the adress www.apple.com/ipod/support,and it switchs out immediatly
    The problem is that I can't reboot it:
    -it doesn't work with windows
    -it doesn't work with "hold and menu+select" technic
    and when I want to do it with my Ipod software (2.0.1) I have an error message saying "impossible to open the Ipod"
    I'm desperate so thank you for your help...

    You have to first restore your iPod on a Windows XP computer before you can use it on your Windows Me computer with Winamp. And your iPod software updater also won't work with it.
    Check this: Guide to iPod and Windows 98/Me
    Have you consider upgrading to Windows XP or a new computer running Windows XP (or perhaps a new Mac such as Mac mini)?

  • ITunes don't sync with brand new iPod 4gen

    Me and my sister just bought new iPods nano 4g (8gb). I can sync my with iTunes - absolutely no problems... But her doesn't work! When it's connected on the same computer, i can see her iPod in itunes, but it doesn't sync...it says, that there is something wrong with the disk and asks to upload software 1.0.2...but it doesn't upload!
    Any ideas?...
    please...

    Have you tried restoring the iPod? You do this by plugging in the nano then going to the summary tab for it in iTunes. The restore option will be on that tab.
    If this doesn't work, then the iPod is should be returned because restore is meant to correct all errors with ipods

  • Trouble Dowloading iTunes 9 - iTunes 7 not compatible with my new iPod!

    I have just bought a new I Pod after losing my last one. The new I Pod will not sync without iTunes 9.1 (I currently have iTunes 7). Whenever I try to download iTunes 9.1 using my 02 mobile broadband I get the following message:
    "iTunes is not a valid Win32 application"
    iTunes will not run despite taking around 1hour 30 mins to download due to my slow internet connection. I have tried the troubleshooting on Apple support by deleting my temporary internet files and uninstalling itunes on my computer but it will still not download.
    Is it likely that I will need a broadband internet connection for the download to be successful?
    Is there anywhere I can get a CD with the iTunes 9 software on it?
    Any help is greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    Just what you already suggested yourself - downloading it through another connection. A friend's house who has broadband, for example. You'd need about 90MB on a memory stick to save it, then take it to your PC.

  • HT1386 Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itune

    Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itunes, therefore i can't change playlists or add songs etc. Is this a fault with itunes as it was fine with the older version or is there something i can do. I'm not on IOS yet but would like to backup my phone first but can't do that atm due to not being able to view my phone on itunes!
    Thanks

    Hi, jodie_0182.

  • How do I sync my old itunes with a new ipod?

    I have just got the latest iPod Nano, after having an extremely old version (from about 5 years ago). All my music (over 800 songs) is on my iTunes account on my home computer, but this computer only has Windows XP, which is not compatible with the new iPods. If I get iTunes 10.4 on my laptop, how can I transfer all my songs from my old iTunes to my new iTunes so that I can sync with my new iPod??
    Thankyou

  • Itunes keeps saying "welcome to your new ipod touch."

    I updated itunes and all, and my iPod touch shows up in "My Computer" but I want to add a movie to my iPod Touch but I am unable to because everytime I plug in my ipod to my computer and go to itunes it says "welcome to your new iPod Touch."

    Hello Mike,
    Congratulations on your new iPod touch!  When you connect an iPod touch to iTunes for the first time, it gives you the welcome screen, but there should also be a button that says "Continue" or "Get Started" that you can click on to continue with syncing. 
    Once you have clicked on one of those buttons, you can continue with the steps in the following article to sync content to your new iPod:

  • How do I sync iCloud/iTunes Match content with my new iPod nano?

    I have a MacBook Air with the associated small flash drive. For that reason, all of my music is in the cloud and some of it is via iTunes Match. I bought a new iPod Nano and I want to sync most or all of my music with that device for use when I travel and do not have WiFi available. When I did my initial sync it says I have 38 songs. Obviously those are only the ones on the local drive = recent purchases. How can I sync all of my music with this iPod whithout having to download all of my music to my MacBook first - an impossibility due the limited drive space? Or am I just out of luck and need to return the iPod to the store. Thanks!

    Ipod is not compatible to iCloud. The only way to load the music is through iTunes.

  • If I changed my Apple ID password on my iphone then log into itunes on my phone with that new password, would it automatically sync to my laptop or would i need to put the new password into my laptop also?

    If I changed my Apple ID password on my iphone then log into itunes on my phone with that new password, would it automatically sync to my laptop or would i need to put the new password into my laptop also? My laptop got stolen so I changed my password and wanted to be sure it's safe to enter in the new one on my phone. I don't want it to snyc to my laptop.

    Hi loro,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I'm sorry to hear that your laptop was stolen. Changing your password was a good step. 
    Entering your new password on your iPhone will not affect the laptop, as mentioned in this article:
    Apple ID: Changing your password
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5624
    The next time you use an Apple feature or service that uses Apple ID, you'll be asked to sign in with your new Apple ID password.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

    I have just bought a new iPhone and gave my old one to my Mum. My problem is that even with a new SIM and phone number I seem to be getting her messages as well as mine on my thread. They are also being recorded as both sent and received so she must be paying twice for each SMS sent. Help please

    Wipe iPhone/iPad/iPod touch clean
    There are a few steps to do:
    Switch off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    Switch off FaceTime in Settings > FaceTime (iPod touch 4th Generation or later, iPhone 4 or later and iPad 2 or later)
    Delete iCloud in Settings > iCloud > Delete Account
    Finally Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
    Un-register your device: https://supportprofile.apple.com
    Now you can sell/give.
    Now, you should get her a new Apple ID to sign in the options above.

  • Still no full retina support, even with the new CC Apps?

    Hello over there!
    I just bought the full CC abo, after trying PS and Indesign and becoming a fan of the new workflow, that is possible with the upcoming new CC Apps (Muse, Edge Tools...).
    Now, after getting things right and downloading the needed Apps to my Macbook Pro (15" Retina) - I was very disappointed. The updated CC version of Dreamweaver and even some of the completely new Apps still have blurry text fields and buttons/layout graphics in it. Acrobat Pro XI is still a laggy, blurry fail on retina. The Mac OS Preview is sharp and scrolls a 600 pages PDF in seconds.
    I mean... Srsly? This would be okay if the retina MBP came out last month. But it came last year. I'm really a big fan of the Adobe workflow and functionality, this is why I upgraded and decided to spend some hundreds of dollars for it ( and become friends with the new and scary rent model ). But the best program is a pain, when your eyes start being overly stressed after 20 minutes of work, especially when you're already looking at hundres of code lines (And I'm 21 years old, so I'm glad to still have those good working eyes..). I remember when I fell totally in love with Dreamweaver because it was able to handle the amount of information in a good stucturized and clearly visible way. But the only really sharp and "look like it fits all together"-Apps are PS, AI and ID as far as I tried for now.
    Definitely affected are: DW, Muse, Edge Animate and Reflow (What? They are new!?)
    So, thats my question: Are there any official statements that this will be fixed? Im confused because Adobe is just partying about the retina-compatibility updates last fall/winter in blogs and descriptions. The blurry App elements are not mentioned. I really want to know this, to be able to take back my contract and abo in time and get a refund. Would be sad, but the only option to me.
    Thanks very much for reading and helping in advance. I really do not want to troll or sound agressive. The Adobe Suite is a very very big product and it does very good. But I'm simply disappointed about the handling of retina support, which is essential for users like me.
    English is not my main language, I hope everything was clear.
    Best regards,
    D. Fuchs

    Hi David,
    thank you for your effort. If I remember correctly you said you’ll also hand through this issue/question to the tech guys. Does this mean I’ll get further information? Because this article you found is about 10 month old and I’d like to get this issue verified.
    Furthermore, Acrobat (XI) is not even mentioned in that article and this is what brings the most problems.
    I really don’t like to be a stressing customer, but I think a official answer to this issue is definitely possible und should be made.
    I’ll attach a few hardcopy pictures of the issue. Don’t know if it helps, but it proofs.
    Thanks again and best regards,
    D. Fuchs

  • I cannot download the latest version of itunes to my Mac OS X 10.5.8 to sync with my new ipod nano.  Any suggestions???

    I cannot download the latest version of itunes to my Mac OS X 10.5.8 to sync with my new ipod...any suggestions?

    You need to upgrade the computer's OS. Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, it can't sync that device.
    If it's a Core Duo Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update.
    If it's a Core 2 Duo or better Mac, upgrade it as if it was a Core Duo Mac, and once done, if desired, open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, go to the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004. If you upgrade the OS, back up the computer first.
    Some device models require Mac OS X 10.7.5 to sync.
