After updating my 4S to 5.0.1 my iPod app no longer plays my music

Strangest thing, after updating my 4S to 5.0.1, when I turn on my iPod app, and hit play on any of my songs, it shows the play button at the top like it's playing, but no sound at all, I checked volume to ensure it wasn't muted, but thats not the issue.  I also updated my iPad 2 to 5.0.1, but the iPod app works fine on that.  Any ideas ? Has anyone else had this problem?

Are the songs that you are trying to play grayed out in your playlists?
I had this problem after upgrading to iOS 5, and I found that deleting all the songs from my device and re-syncing them fixed the problem.
To do this:
1. Attach your iOS device (either using the cable or to the same wi-fi network if using iTunes Wi-Fi Sync).
2. Open iTunes, and click on your iOS device.
3. Click on the Music tab.
4. Uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top.
5. When asked, click "Don't Sync Music".
6. Sync the iOS device. Your songs will be removed from the device.
7. Check the "Sync Music" checkbox at the top once again.
8. Sync the iOS device again, and your songs will be re-added.
I don't know why the upgrade made some songs unreadable, but the resync fixed the problem for me (I had to do this for each of my iOS devices after upgrading them all to iOS 5). Fortunately, I only had 1,000 songs, so the resync didn't take forever.
Hope this helps!

  • After updating to 5.1 OS for 3rd gen iPod touch, no longer able to change wallpaper. Thoughts?

    When I click on wallpaper in my settings it shows the 2 current wallpapers. When I click on that to change them, it just sends me back to my home screen. As far as I can tell everything else is fine. Trying restarting the iPod and reseting the settings as well and still cannot get to the wallpaper page. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Yes, I tried reseting it originally (and again just now) and I still have the same problem. I restored (reset) all the settings before, are you suggesting I restore all the apps and files as well?
    Thanks,

  • TS1369 After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

  • After updateing my iPad Air 2 to iOS 8.3, it no longer works

    After updating my iPad Air 2 to iOS 8.3, it no longer works.  It is a 64 GB model.
    The opening screen is the same as when I first starting using it, with "welcome" in various languages.
    I have gone through the operations requested, iCloud, etc. but at the very end I get my home screen for about 1 second, then the machine shuts down.
    I backed up and synced the iPad before installing iOS 8.3, and tried a restore, but it made no difference.
    You guys out there have never let me down yet!  I hope you can help!
    Thanks in advance.

    You're not alone in this problem.  My iPad Mini 3 was working great until the iOS 8.3 update, which kicked into the same loop you're describing.  Sounds like at least one person has had luck with factory restore.  Check out the thread here:  Anyone else seeing issue with iOS 8.3 update on iPad Mini 3?

  • After updating to iOS 6.1.5 on my iPod Touch 4th Gen, Some of my songs are skipping to the next song after 30 seconds of play...

    After updating to iOS 6.1.5 on my iPod Touch 4th Gen, some of my songs are skipping to the next song after 30 seconds even though the iPod appears to be playing the current song. Some of my songs are mp3 files that have been playing fine for years...
    Anybody else experiencing this issue?
    I'm using the latest version of iTunes and i don't have that problem on my PC. The only difference as far as i can tell is the updated iOS & firmware...

    Yes, other have. If the songs play OK in iTunes on the computer
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Immediately after updating Acrobat Pro XI to the latest version, the software no longer displays imags in pdf docs.

    Immediately after updating Acrobat Pro XI to the latest version, the software no longer displays images in pdf docs.  All the boxes where images are supposed to be are solid grey.  Old documents that worked are no longer displayed correctly and new documents I make do not display images.  All grey boxes.  Worked fine before the update.  Suggestions?

    Hi precious_star,
    Could you please let me know what version of OS are you using.
    Open Acrobat and go to "Edit > Preferences > Page Display" and check whether 'Show large images' option is checked.
    Is this issue specific for one PDF?
    If possible, please share the file with me via email so that I can also check at my end.
    I have sent you a message with my contact id details.
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,

    It's absolutley scandalous that a company with Apple's resources can let this happen.  They should have staggered the release by region rather than opening the flood gates.  The upgrade itself took me about 10 attempts to download it, and then I thought I was home free.  That was until it rebooted and won't activate.  It's over 2 hours now.
    Scandalous!

  • After updating my iphone 4S with the ios 6, I can no longer open my apps. HELP!

    After updating my iphone 4S with the ios 6, I can no longer open my apps (Facebook, Instagram, games, Voxer, WhatsApp, Tumblr). It prompts me to enter my Apple ID. I enter my email address (what is listed everywhere as my ID) and it does not recognize that.  I wondered if it is saved somewhere as something different so I went online to find it. When I go to the support page and request my apple ID, it takes me in circles to reset my password but never tells me my ID.  HELP!

    Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Hi, Thanks for that further bug description In Your Last Message That Describes The Problem I Am Having perfectly and is exactly the same for me.
    unfortunately that fix for my camera Powershot G6 does not work or apply as the view pictures switch is different on G6 is not usable during download as once you plug in DC/USB cable it turns off, and makes no diff and problem still exists exactly as you just described.
    thanks anyways "Selz Boy"
    it has been 17 days since apple promised to get back to me within 3-5 days hopefully with a solution, but I have still not heard from them.
    They blew me off, i guess, probably i will have to wait for new Yosemite OS update, which they pre-warned me could take as much as 6 months.
    I cannot believe apple released this new update with such major bug issues for camera downloads and that horrible "Photos" pgm which has all sorts of downgrades in features, usefulness and new bugs compared to iPhotos which I just finally got used to and was much better software.
    I am starting to lose faith in Apple and I am getting that Microsoft "FEEL" like I used to have when I was a PC user, which was why I originally switched to Apple  computers in first place.
    Oh well got my fingers crossed here.
    Thankfully the memory card reader solution  is working well, but cost me $45.
