IPod Touch 2G 3.1.1 bug No Music in the Library

I was shocked when I saw the music library of my iPod Touch, my music files were all erased from the library but the free space is still the same and no videos erased. I am sure that I did not pressed the option to erase anything from the iPod.
Just connect your iPod to your PC and it will update your music library.

I am having the EXACT same problem and am very glad to have found this forum with the solution. I just now noticed that I have No music and No videos on my iTouch, even though the physical space is still reserved for them on the hard drive, after doing the exact same thing.
I was downloading a few podcasts on through iTunes on my device and then switched over to the Music app to see if I had already downloaded the podcast that I was about to download. This is when the app "crashed" and displayed the "Updating Library" message as previously mentioned. I didn't think anything of it at the time and finished downloading my podcasts... Well, sure enough my library isn't there even though the space is still reserved.
Basically the Music app crashed and creates an database error in the Music app and so it is unable to find your songs or videos.
This is clearly an error on the iTouch software and should be addressed by Apple, if they'll ever look here and see it. This problem can easily be re-created by following the above steps and I'm sure that the Apple tech debug software will show that the Music App song and video database has been corrupted, and hopefully a fix can be made to the software and prevent this in future software releases.
I do not have my laptop with me here and am REALLY hoping that my corrupt database will be fixed by a simple sync. I will be really ****** if I have to erase and re-install all that stuff. Here's hoping for an easy fix.
Thanks again for all the help, and hopefully someone from Apple will see this and fix the problem with a future software release.

HT204406 I purchased the additional Icloud storage for my ipod touch. Since it removes all my music from the touch and stores it in Icloud, I find that when I am not at my wifi location or another one,I can't access my music.Is there a solution for that?

Download the music to your ipod when you are in a wi-fi area.
It will be stored on your ipod.

After updating to ios 6, my ipod touch won't access some of my music. The music is gray colored and unclickable. Please help!!

A couple months ago I updated my iPod touch to the most recent ios (6.1.3). Now, my music works normally except for one thing: some of it is gray colored and unplayable. I have one album of music that I actually bought on my iPod and only one song in it is playable. I also have some music that I bought on my computer and synced into my iPod and only choice music of that collection is playable. Then I have four of five tangible albums that I bought and downloaded onto my computer and then synced to my iPod. It's just so weird how only some choice songs or albums are unplayable, but a lot of it is of some of my favorites artists, so I really hope this can be fixed! Thanks!

- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

The music I sync into my iPod touch is all literally out of order and in the library it's not. Why is this?

I checked the starting time for songs in the library and on my iPod and they all say 0:00. What I mean when I say it's out of order is for example, the first ten seconds are skipped and placed somewhere in the middle of the song and some other parts are skipped then played later. I didn't have this problem before I updated iTunes for my new iPod, now when I tried syncing onto my old iPod as well, the same thing happens. So there's nothing wrong with my iPod. I want to know how I can fix this on iTunes or if it's just a glitch on my iTunes?

Something you can try is resetting it all Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. Or go to Settings > Store & sign out & log back in. Another thing you can do is restore your ipod. This has happened to me but the only thing i did was that i created a new account but try doing the things above i just told you. :)

My iPod touch is not synching all of my music in my library, even though everything is checked

I don't know how to fix it

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Try to do a hard reboot (no data is lost) by holding down the home and power buttons at the same time untilyou see the Apple logo. Then, let go of both buttons. If that doesn't work, try restoring your iPod and do NOT restore from a backup. This will erase your data, but you can sync back everything except app data and settings from iTunes.

It would probably be best to attach the iPod to a computer and restore it. This way you'll know it's wiped clean. Then, when you start up the iPod it will ask you for your Apple ID.

My gen 3 iPod Touch seems to have duplicated all my music since updating to IOS 5 so that it now only holds half as much. What can I do about it? I'm using the same iTunes library with OS 10.6 and all software up to date.

go to itunes preferences, store, uncheck automatic downloads. also when your phone is connected you can click on apps and only check the ones you want on your phone, go down to the bottom right and click apply.
