Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up new computer with newest version of itunes

Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up on new computer, only songs which tansferred were songs bought on new computer after set up, tried to sync songs and it deleted old songs from ipod.  How can I get them back on ipod??  They are showing in music library on itunes still.

If the iPod database gets corrupted, it will add files to "Other" instead of where they really belong.
Restoring the iPod will erase this database and recreate it.
And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?
No, it shouldn't. This is why you Restore the iPod. It erases the corrupt database.

  • Cannot sync iPod with click wheel to iTunes...

    I cannot sync my iPod with click wheel to my iTunes on Windows. I have already attempted the five R's, multiple times, including restoring my iPod three times, and updating my iTunes software. But when I plug my iPod in, it takes forever to be recognized by iTunes, and just sits there, whizzing and clicking, with the "Do Not Disconnect" message blinking. After awhile, iTunes will download a song or two from my library, then quit. I often get a message that says my iPod is "corrupted." Help! How can I get my iTunes library back on to my iPod?

    I am having similar issues. I have received lots of advice, none of which work so far but there is lots to try here. Good luck!

  • Cannot sync ipod to itunes on new computer because it doesnt recognize apps

    any help??

    - An iPod can only sync to one computer.  Yu can swithced computers.
    - You need to get all the stuff on the new computer first.  This includes app and Music.
    - After the stuff is the new computer.  Make a backup of the iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Backup.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. Then sync as necessary

  • Cannot sync ipod with new computer.

    I just bought a new computer a few days ago. I went from a windows XP to a windows vista. I own an 8GB ipod touch. I authorized the computer and transfered my purchases already. Itunes keeps giving me the option to transfer purchases, or to delete and resync. If I delete and resync, I'll loose all my music that I got from CD's I borrowed from friends, which I don't have anymore since I returned them. It won't let me add the new CD that I bought today to my ipod. Is there anything I can do?

    It is absolutely stealing. "They paid for it". You did NOT.
    When you buy music (cd or download) you buy the right to personal use. It is absolutely stealing to distribute this music to others. Borrowing others cd's is EXACTLY what limewire is. Other distribute music that they bought to others.
    From the L.A. TIMES:
    "Actually, attorneys say, copying a purchased CD for even one friend violates the federal copyright code most of the time."

  • Why am I asked to erase IPOD and resync after loading onto new computer

    After loading Itunes and my library from my IPOD on to a new computer I now get a message: An IPOD can only be synced with one Itunes library at one time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of the IPOD with the contents of this library. If I choose the erase IPOD and resync option am I going to loose my music? I don't understand why it is showing I have more than one library.

    if you do it on a different computer its considered to be a different library even if it has all the same songs
    just make sure you have all the music on the new computer before you sync it and it will be fine and not lose anything

  • Cannot sync iPod with iTunes and "Other" data increasing

    So here is my issue:
    Since I updated my iPod to v1.2.3 (or whatever the most recent one is) my iTunes will give me an error message when I try to drag+drop files from my PC library to my iPod (error message 48). Now when this happens I'll get the error message but iTunes will keep transferring the files I wanted to add to my iPod, BUT instead of them showing up in either Music or Movies the tranferred data just adds to the "Other" section. And I don't know how to view/delete "Other" files.
    Is the only answer to restore my iPod? And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?

  • Cannot sync ipod to itunes......error messages

    I have itunes downloaded to my computer. When I try and connect the ipod I get an error message that reads "itunes has detected an ipod that appears to be corrupted, you may need to restore the ipod". When i try to restore the ipod I get a message that says "ipod cannot be restored". I have tried to remove itunes and reinstall the software twice with no luck. I have even tried on another computer. However, I plugged the ipod into a friends computer who already has itunes working, and the songs load directly onto the ipod. I have tried all of the troubleshooting steps to try and correct the issue, i'm not sure how to proceed. If anyone has any advice......please advise.

    So it is not working on your computer but is on your friend's computer?
    Try connecting via a different USB port.
    Also, try putting your iPod into Disk Mode prior to connecting it to the computer...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Once you do this, try connecting it to your computer and restoring it.
    Since you have reinstalled iTunes, I am assuming you are using the latest version of iTunes, 7.0.2, right?

  • Cannot update iPod software even after setting automatic detection

    Hi, I've been trying to update the software on my 5th gen iPod but to no avail. I've recently bought the pod and just installed iTunes. It informed me that an update was available for the iPod but I can't get it! Everytime I click on Update in the Version section on iTunes, it says "iTunes could not contact the iPod software update server because you are not connected to the internet....Make sure you internet connection is active and try again". The connection is active and i've even tried the method in the hot topics support section telling you to go to 'LAN settings' under the 'Connections' tab in Internet Options and under Automatic Configuration, set it to 'Automatically Detect settings' but this has still not worked. Can someone please help me as this is doing my head in?!!!

    yea... something like that is happening to me... when i try to update it (with itunes 7) it says that my firmware is "corrupt".... i dont know what this means because it had no problem updating b4... and no i didnt try to put linux or anything on it. it just wont update.
    and if anyone knows.... y does my itunes symbol look like a picture with a camera in the corner... i just downloaded itunes 7 to my friend's computer and it looks just like last itunes but instead of a green music note infront of a cd... its a blue music note infront of a cd... and when i plugged my ipod into his computer it said that my ipod is up to date.... y is that?

  • Suddenly cannot sync ipod on itune, suddenly cannot sync ipod on itune

    Since today I cannot saw divice iPod nano generation 6th display on iTune... I used Macbook, iTune ver. 10.4.1 normally is no problem with this issue.

    Since I don't have Windows XP or Windows Vista 64, I didn't try to answer your question, and there apparently weren't any other users here with this issue. Since we are all doing this voluntarily I didn't realize there was any obligation to answer your question.
    And if you are using a 64-bit browser and you download iTunes it will install the 64-bit version.

  • Cannot sync to old nano when transferred to new computer.

    I recently transferred all my music from an old computer to a new laptop, using the Home Sharing option.  This was after I tried using another method, which was given on the Apple support page for transferring the music.  When I looked at the music on the laptop, only 117 of 844 were there.  So, I used the Home Sharing option.  I now have all the music on the laptop, but when I went to sync it to the nano, I received the message that I couldn't sync it, because I needed an additional 2.7 GB of space.  All the music in the iTunes library came from the nano, so I don't know why this occurred. 
    Should I reinitialize the nano and attempt to sync again, or is there another option?
    Thanks!

    As it turns out, I was able to restore my nano to factory settings, using instructions I found elsewhere on this site.  Then, I synced it to my iTunes library, and all appears to be well. 
    I hope my question and answer helps someone!

    You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

  • Cannot sync iPod after hard drive crash

    Hard drive crashed last week so reinstalled new from Dell. Data all backed up. Since new drive in cannot sync iPod. USB cable OK, iTunes "sees" iPod name and can download to iTunes but no sync. Do not get any kind of error msg that iPod registered on "another" computer (which it was). Still under warranty.

    Try restoring the iPod in itunes. This should assure that it sync with the current computer it's hooked up to.
