I pod touch will not sync with I tunes

My Ipod touch won't synch with Itunes any more.  Get a screen saying to try again later.  It gets hung up on step 2 of the sync operation.  What could be causing this.

Step two is about backing up your device. Did you try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
If this does not help, follow the suggestions mentioned in this article: iOS: Troubleshooting backup issues in iTunes

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with home iMac but can with other macs

    My daughters iPod Touch will not sync with her iMac anymore.
    It will with my MacBook Pro but not with her iMac.
    We are both running Snow Leopard.
    Is there a toggle or setting that needs to be changed.
    I've looked but no joy.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    If iTunes is not seeing the iPod then try:

  • HT1535 My ipod touch will not sync with itunes I have restored it to factory settings and have now lost all my music how do I get it to sync to get it back it keeps saying it has timed out whilst waiting to sync...

    My ipod touch will not sync with itunes I have tried to restore it to the factory settings and have now lost what little music I had on it I have music in my itunes but it wont sync for some reason .. please help ..

    Why won't it sync? Are you getting any sort of error message during the sync process?  If so what is the exact wording of that error message?  If this the computer you normally sync the iPod with?

  • HT1386 my i touch will not synci with my computer getting error message

    My i touch will not synci with my computer, keep getting erro message can you help?

    Restore.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  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.

  • HT4623 My ipod touch will not sync with my computer and computer says that it is due to an impropper response from ipod.

    my ipod touch will not sync with my computer and the computer says that it is due to an impropper response from ipod , what do I do?

    Check USB connections
    If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
    Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
    To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
    Use another USB cable.
    Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
    Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
    Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
    If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

    What happens when you try?
    Does anything sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • Ipod touch will not Sync with Itunes

    Roomate deleted most of my music on my ipod touch and now it will not sync with itunes when I try to put the music back on.

    - First try resetting the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - have you tried a different cable/USP port?
    - Assuming a PC look here:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - you may have to place your iPod in recovery mode to get iTunes to see the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • I touch will not sync with my car

    I have an I touch and will not sync with my new ford truck.  I get an error message stating the accessory is not supported.

    Does Ford say the iPod model you have with its iOS is compatible? You likely have to wait for an iOS update from Apple or an update to your car's system from Ford.

  • Touch will not sync with nook after 5.0.1

    Touch will not sync  nook, but ipad will sync.

    Hi,
       I set up another windows computer I had which run XP and got it to sync there. I cant get WIFI syncing working though.
    After that I went back to my Netbook which had the problem and now it works!!!
    This one runs Win 7 Starter and is the one I normally do not use.
    WIFI sync does not work on the WIN 7 one either, but never has.
    We have aMAC in the house and another iPad and no troubles WIFI syncing with that one.
    So this problem is solved.
    Not sure why it started to work again on the netbook but may be after a couple of reboots etc
    I also flushed he previous syncs.
    Seems like it worked after syncing with a different machine.
    Any way all seems well for now
    Thanks to all for help above,
    Richard

  • Ipod Touch will not sync with Itunes 12.1.1.4 64 bit

    I have recently updated itunes and on the back of doing so my Ipod touch will not sync my library. The Ipod itself is a couple of years old but using iOS 6.1.6.
    I have deleted and re-installed Itunes. I have wiped my Ipod to start again. I have set it to sync over Wi-fi and nothing has worked. I physically plug the Ipod in and it gets detected. If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.
    I have set automatically download Itunes songs etc etc etc and absolutely nothing seems to get it to sync!
    Help!

    You said " If I change a setting and click apply it briefly says syncing and then nothing.".
    How many steps are completed? What is listed in the status bar of iTunes when it stops?

  • The contacts and calendar data on my iPod touch will not sync with my Mac

    I have a 2nd generation ipod touch, and an iMac running iTunes 8.2.1.
    I have been away from my mac for a few months and have entered a lot of contact and calendar info into my ipod touch.
    Now, when I try to sync the contacts and calendar data on my ipod touch with my mac, the data will not sync to my mac.
    Similarly, for the last couple months, the contact and calendar data on my ipod touch has not been able to sync with my mobileme account.
    I cannot afford to lose the contact and calendar data on my ipod touch.
    Can anyone kindly inform me how to fix this syncing problem without losing such data?
