I tried to update my iPod touch with the new 3.0 software and nothing!!

I downloaded and *PAID FOR* the new update on iTunes
BUT
after downloading it and followed everything it still says error
it keeps saying to 'restore and update' but that still doesnt work and now my iPod wont even turn on without coming up with a picture of a USB import and the iTunes symbol!! does this mean i now CANNOT USE MY IPOD?! i reeeeeeeeeally need help guys and _simpliying things is a good idea for me since im not entirely technical ^^;_I've got the latest iTunes version so i dont think it has anything to do with that.

  • HT1386 I have a new computer and when I tried to sync my iPod Touch with the new iTunes, it has lost all of my music and videos from my iPod/old iTunes library: including all but 4 songs of my bought songs, videos and audeobooks!

    I have recently updated my computer since my old one broke and therefore had to download a new iTunes. When I came to add my iPod to this new iTunes, I was given no option to transfer the contents of my iPod library to this new iTunes and was forced to try 'sync'; when my old computer was repaired once we lost all of our data so I had to download a new iTunes then,all of my iPod downloads were transferred and I could easily reburn my CDs so I didn't think the wiping of my iPod would be a problem. When I clicked 'sync' it warned me that it would replace the contents of my iPod with the new iTunes library, as I said I didn't think this would be a problembut then it asked if it should transfer my recent iTunes downloads so I said 'yes'. The sync was completed but now I only have 4 downloaded songs and 5 albums which I burned to my new iTunes! I have lost all the music I bought, all the videos I bought and all the audiobooks I bought! (Luckily I still have my apps.) I tried to restore backup but realised that only covers calendars, contacts E.T.C and I checked my iTunes account and that shows all my downloads but I can't see a way to restore them or anything like that!
    Please help! I am in despair as you can imagine how much moneys worth I have lost and am losing faith in Apple

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • Will updating my ipod touch with the new update erase all my pictures/music/apps?

    I want to get the new update, but I have music on my ipod from other people's computers. Is updating my ipod going to erase everything on it and start all over?

    The update itself will not affect your music. However, anytime you do a major update like this one there is a risk that there could be other issues that would require you to restore your device (not likely, but possible). Therefore, you should back up your device before you do the upgrade.
    Back it up to iTunes on a computer, or to iCloud. Then do the upgrade to iOS 7.
    That way, if you do have an issue that requires a restore, you can restore it to the backup you created.
    Cheers,

    I am trying to update my iPhone 4 with the jailbreak in it. And why I updated it, it was fine at first. Then it started to turn off and turn on over and over again. What do I do? Is this normal?

    When jailbroken, you cannot update the iOS on your device. The only way to fix it is to do a full restore through iTunes. Before you do this make sure you backup your device and everything on it.

  • HT1386 I repeatedly receive an error mesage when trying to sync my ipod touch with my new computer, "some of the items in the itunes library, were not copied to the ipod because you are not authorized for them on this computer."  My computer is authorized

    I repeatedly receive an error message when trying to sync my ipod touch with my itunes library with my new computer which reads, "Some of the items in the itunes library were not copied to the ipod because you are not authorized on this computer." However when I try and authorize my computer I always receive the message that this computer is authorized. What am I doing wrong?  I'm missing about 100 songs as a result of this error!!

    See:

    Could the items be purchased by another account?

  • I had recently updated my Ipod touch to the version 11.1.3 and my Ibooks app is no longer on their.

    I had recently updated my Ipod touch to the newest version 11.1.3 and my Ibooks app is no longer on on their. Hence I am in the middle of reading a book and am now very frustrated. How do I get it back on their?
    -Serious help only, please and thank you.

    I do not understand what iTunes on your computer has to do with the iBooks app in your iPod.
    You can only read iBooks on an Apple computer with the newers, Mavericks, operating system.
    You can redownload the iBooks app for the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • What does error -3259 mean? How can i update my ipod touch to the new ios 5?

    I been updating my ipod touch 4 software to the new ios 5 all day. i tried disabling my security programs and firewall, different download programs and reinstalling iTunes, and restarting my ipod touch. But for each attempt i get a different error. i went to the Specific update and restore errror code page and got a reason for each error except for error -3259. Basically my question is: 1. How can i update my ipod software to io5 and 2. What is the reason behind error -3259?

    Connect it to iTunes on a computer and update it from there. Note that the second generation iPod touch(which includes 8GB models sold at the same time as the third generation ones) can't be updated past 4.2.1.

    I'm trying to update my iphone4 with the new iOS6 and in the middle of udating it gave my an error 35, and I would like to figure this out so I can download the apps i need?

    What version do you currently have?
    If you have iOS 5.0 or later, do not update through iTunes if possible; update over Wi-Fi if you have it. Just go to Settings > General > Software Update.

  • I can't recall my passcode to my older iPod touch (after the newer one got stolen) and it's not showing up in iTunes, how can I restore it to clear the passcode?

    I can't recall the passcode to my older iPod, iPod touch 2g 8GB, (someone stole my 4g) and it's not showing up in iTunes, is there any other way to do a 'restore' to clear the old passcode and be able to access the iPod? Anyone???

    The only way is to restore the iPOd via iTunes. Have you tried:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    P
    Have yu tried setting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  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.
    - Next wold be to place the iPod in recovery mode to see if iTunes will see it. For recovery mode see:

  • I bought a new computer and I need to sync my ipod touch with the new computer

    I bought a new HP laptop and I need to register my ipod touch so that it recognizes when I plug it in to the laptop.  how do I do this

    I somehow suspect this is not what you mean:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420 - and another helpful post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17828050
    This is more likely what you mean:
    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.
    Basically what the above is saying is you should transfer your itunes library from your other computer, not try to do it from the iPoad.
