IPOD won't synch
I have a nano and I put too many songs on. The IPOD automatically created a generic playlist with most of my songs scrambled in it. I mistakenly deleted this generic playlist and then unchecked many of my songs hoping I would have freed up some space. Now all my songs have been deleted and the IPOD will not sync.
Message " IPOD cannot be updated because all the playlists selected for synching no longer exists".
Any suggestions????? I have tried everything I know. Apple call center was unhelpful.
The same thing happened to me i stil have all my songs but they deleted off my ipod and the window that pops up tells you that you can't sync the songs beacuse the playlist was deleted but it doesn't give you any options.

My new ipod won't synch or restore
My new ipod won't synch. It comes up need to restore, then can't be restored. Error code 9. Security disabled.
Error 9: This error occurs when the device unexpectedly drops off the USB bus and communication stops. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB isolation troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.
Try a different computer.

Downloaded 8.1...now my ipod won't synch
After downloading 8.0, my ipod won't synch. The computer recognizes my ipod, but when I try to add song to it, it won't transfer music.
Can I delete 8.0 and get my older program back? Will this delete my music? HELP!!!I stumbled on another topic that I had been experiencing since I got my iPT a couple months ago: my PC thinks it's a digital camera.

Ipod won't synch because it's synched w/another library
authorized new computer, but ipod won't synch because it's "synched w/another library" - how do i connect it with my new laptop?
hey there,
That is the same for iphone and ipad. I assumed the machine you were authorizing is the ONLY machine you want to sync with. If that is correct what I said is correct.
If you want to sync your ipod with multiple machines then it is different, here is a video made earlier that answers that specific. There are loads of ways to do, and some great software (3rd party) it but this is the easiest in the video and all part of itunes secret ways. http://bit.ly/1device -
IPod Won't Synch on New Computer
I just moved over to a new computer. Now when I try to synch my iPod with iTunes I get the following message "Attempting to copy to the disk "XXX iPod" failed. The disk is locked and cannot be written to." Is this because the iPod is not recognizing the new computer as its "home computer?" Do I need to restore the factory settings in order for the iPod to recognize the new computer as its "home computer?" Will this then allow the iPod to automatically synch again every time I connect the iPod? Any help would really be appreciated!
Hi hey how were able to put it on a new computer because that is what I am trying to do and cant get any help from apple because my warranty has expired..maybe together we can figure this out..thanks Vickie

My iPod won't synch on my new computer
I got a new computer and transferred my music and iTunes to the new computer. Now, when I plug in my iPod Nano and/or iPod mini to my new computer, I get an error message that says "The iPod cannot be synched. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem??Welcome to Apple Discussions.
This is the iPod touch - connect to Mac discussion area. As you have neither a touch or a Mac, you might want to consider posting in one of the more appropriate areas in the future.
As to your specific problem, you need to Administrator access in Windows XP to make this work. I'm not sure how your account is setup in XP, but it needs to be changed to allow Admin access. -
I have an older iPod an 80 gig generation 5 which I cannot synch to the latest version of itunes.
Is there anyway to get this unit to synch. I thought maybe installing an older version of itunes may be the way to go.
or is there a way to upgrade the iPod software to synch with latest version of itunes?Hello walkerrg412
See if you can restore your iPod but first putting it into Disk Mode and then plugging into iTunes to restore. If all is good after that, then you should be able to sync your music to your iPod. Check out the article below for more information.

What is the problem? HELP and THANK YOU in advance!!How do you do this? I just got this and I don't know how to fix it. It's never happened to me before. What do you do to authorize it. Where do you go?

New Ext HD and Ipod won't synch
We have transfered all of Itunes to the new external hard drive, but when we try to synch my daughters Ipod to it, it took off all of her songs but the one that came on it. (She is turning purple and holding her breath!!) I don't know what we did wrong. The songs are still on the HD. I don't know anything about this and am about as useless as a box of hair when it comes to this. Any help would be appreciated.
MistyWelcome to AD!
How did you transfer things over to the exHD? Did you use Windows Explorer, or the itunes Consolidate command?
Do the songs still show and play in itunes?
Need a bit more info to give advice.... -

I bought an IPAD mini and now I can no longer synch my ipod how can I do both
As Roaminggnome said, adding the Mini is not related to the iPod nano problem.
Try:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1369
Does it charge?
- Try another cable.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
