HT1386 My iPod touch does not correctly sync my music I choose in iTunes on the iPod. Any suggestions?

I have more music in my iTunes library than I want on my iPod touch. The solution used to be simple: I simply check off the albums etc. that I want to sync. Now when I do that it goes through all the sync motions but nothing really happens. The same music that was on the iPod stays there and but the songs I've selected to sync don't appear.

Try:                                               
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable                                                       
- Try on another computer                                                       
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Hello my ipod touch does not open to applications.  I have charged it and the ipod is thinking.  The wheel just spins

    I have turned it off.  I have charged it.  Its like the system is thinking.  The wheel spins and then the charge dies.  Please help.

    If the iPad connects to iTunes using the same cable and USB port:
    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.
    - Does it charge when connectes?
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, cracked or broken plastic.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    I have no clue what you mean by "all the different methods."  Here are my suggestions.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • My iPod touch does not show up in My computer or in itunes. Windows 8

    I recently bought a Windows 8 computer, when i tried connecting my Ipod touch the sound went off on the ipod saying it was connected but no message saying to sync. On the computer nothing was shown saying anything had connected. I have tried re-installing itunes as well as running it in a windows 7 compatibilty.

    Did you do everything here:

    Including
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    New cable and different USB port?
    Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • HT5925 My Ipod Touch does not sync with my Windows 8.1 Icloud calender.

    My Ipod touch does not sync with my Windows 8.1 I cloud calendar?  it syncs from windows computer to itouch but not vice versa

    Make sure you are entering the events on your iPod in the iCloud calendar and not something else such as On My iPod.  Check Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar (in the Calendars section) to be sure you have selected an iCloud calendar as your default.

  • IPod Touch does not sync any info

    hey there, my problem is that my iPod Touch does not sync anything from the "info"-section shown in iTunes, neither Contacts nor Calendar nor Mail Accounts...
    In contrast it's no problem with my iPod nano (1. gen).
    i hope that someone can help me. thank you and excuse my shabby English. _
    everytime i try to sync Contacts and so on, i get a message saying "iTunes cannot sync 'Contacts' to the iPod, because the Sync-Server can't sync the iPod" (i tried to translate the originally German message...)

    Im having this problem as well and it really defeats the purpose of having a calendar on here if it won't work. Mine seems to only want to try to sync one of my 6 calendars I want to carry with me, but even then that one calendar doesn't update all events. It's very selective/random.
    I also find that the odd photo album is randomly ignored. But the iCal sync is important for me. Why Apple just doesn't allow a direct link from iCal allowing multiple calendars is beyond me. If the iPod Touch is running a copy of OS X anyway, why not just make the Calendar app basically identical to iCal? And make it work!

  • Ipod touch does not synch calendar or notes with my Windows Vista  PC

    Ipod touch does not synch calendar or notes with my Windows Vista PC. I have calendar and notes entries in my Outlook calendar, but they do not synch with my Ipod touch. They used to work fine, but stopped around 2 weeks ago. I connect my ipod to i tunes, but the "info" area of itunes is not allowing me to tick the boxes to synch calendar, outlook, or notes.

    Hello Welcome To Apple Discussions
    plug in your ipod and select the info tab and look for calender sync (something similar to that) and click the program your using for your calender.
    try that
    Thank You
    sincerly

    Correct. When you did that, you voided all warranty/support, & forfeited the right to an out of warranty replacement.
    There was nothing wrong with the screen I bought,
    And, exactly, how do you know that? Since Apple DOES NOT sell iPhone parts, there is no official source for genuine parts. Thus, many on the market are counterfeit & produce nothing but problems.
    Good luck.

    If after you charge it for about three hours and it only last about five minutes the battery is probably dead or there could be another hardware problem.  I would go back to the Apple store and ask them specifically how can it be OK if the fully charged battery only lasts five minutes.

  • My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.

    My computer no longer recognizes my iPod Touch. And the iPod Touch does not recognize that it is connected to a computer.  It has worked great for many days until today.
    I’ve tried two different Apple cables.
    I’ve tried different USB ports on the computer.
    I have rebooted both the Mac and the iPod.
    I’ve wiggled the cables and checked for dust in the connectors.
    The iPod charges using this same cable connected to wall wart.  That’s a good sign.
    Both the Mac and iPod seem to work fine separate from each other.  They just won’t talk anymore.
    Mac mini
    1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo
    OS 10.4.11
    iTunes 9.2.1
    iPod Touch 32GB, version 3.1.3 (7E18), model PB533LL 

    I found this possible solution on another support thread, so I tried it.
    turn off iPod
    hold Sleep and Home buttons to start it.
    When Apple appears, let go of Sleep button, but keep holding Home button.
    When screen goes blank, let go of Home button.
    Connect cable and check iTunes to see if it has conencted.
    This did not work for me.
    I then turned off the iPod, restarted the Mac, and restarted the iPod normally.
    I connected them with the cable, and it works like normal.  :-)
