My 5th Gen iPod Touch will not sync after I updated my iTunes

Right after I updated my iTunes on my PC, it will no longer sync anything. My apps, my music, everything won't sync.
It just says that I can't sync because I need more space (8.30GB to be exact). But before I updated my iTunes, everything was fine. The thing is I want my iTunes and iPod to synchronize with each other without losing anything.
Can someone help me?
Also, my OS is already iOs 7.1

Do you have the right boxes checked to sync? It appears not.

5th gen iPod Classic will not sync contacts or calendars with itunes 9

I get the following window message when selection contacts to sycn - "iTunes will no longer sync contacts to ipod "MiPod Classic 80". Would you like iTunes to remove contacts previously copied to you ipod?"
Then is has two button choices (Don't remove contact) and (Remove Contacts).
When trying to select calendars I get a window state something like... You can no calendars to sync. Would you like to open iCal to create some. Then it give me a button to do so.
I do have calendars.
Anyone else have this problem?

I have the same problem. When I tell iTunes to sync Contacts, no contacts show up. It asks if I want to add contacts to my Address Book, but when I click okay, all of my 400+ contacts appear as normal in the Address Book. I just can't get iTunes to recognize that I have contacts in my address book.
I think calendars are also missing, but I'm no longer syncing calendars, so I haven't really messed with that.
I actually think the problem started when I upgraded to Snow Leopard, but I don't usually mess with my contacts sync settings, so it could've been a problem prior to that. I just upgraded to iTunes 9 last night, and that did not fix the problem.

3rd gen iPod Nano will not sync with latest version of iTunes. It passes the connectivity test but not the sync test under diagnostics. Worked fine on old Windows 7 laptop but not new one. From Control Panel it shows up as an Apple iPod USB Device...

Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

Ipod touch will not sync after new itunes update

Ipod touch 4th generation will not sync after I updated the new itunes. Actually after I updated to the new itunes it deleted all my music from my ipod and refuses to reload. If someone could please help me that would be completely appreciated. I tried trying to sync each song individually but it didn't help (before it stopped syncing), then it stopped syncing, even though I have it hooked up it brings everything that I have on my ipod up but it won't do anything.

When I tried the first time it asked me if i wanted it to stop syncing and to restore. It gave the choices of yes and cancel, i didn't click either because the option box went away and it just stopped restoring on its own. I did the store again and now it is asking if i want to set up as a new ipod or to restore to Andrea's ipod. Should I set up as new?
Thank you Espeon for the article

My 2nd Gen iPod Touch will not SYNC

My iPod is working fine otherwise.
When I plug it into my iMac, Mac OSX Version 10.5.8, it charges but it doesn't show up on my computer or on iTunes. My computer doesn't acknowledge it at all other than to charge it.
I just downloaded the lastest version of iTunes and the same thing happens. I also used Apple's Express help to troubleshoot this issue and nothing changed.
Please help!
Thank you!

Have yuo tried everything here:

Do you have another computer to connect it to (do not sync) to help determine if yu have a computer problem or an iPod problem.

Help please.... My 3rd gen Ipod Touch will not sync up to Itunes....

It keeps bringing up a window that is recognizing the Ipod as a camera and starting Camera wizard. I followed the troubleshooting steps - I have the updated ITunes version, I have restarted, I have switched USB ports.... The last step is to reinstall Itunes, but I am afraid I will lose all of my recent music that I have uploaded from CDs (& spent hours doing!)

Reinstalling iTunes will not do anything to your music/iTunes library. However, you should always backup your important files.
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
I would remove and reinstall all the Apple software using:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

3rd gen ipod touch will not sync having done so on coutless occassions and now it just does 1 phase of sync

I have a 3rd gen 8gb ipod touch when I try to sync it it goes through phase one of the sync and then says sync complete, changing nothing on the ipod
if I reset my Ipod and it wipes everything off and then it still wont sync I will have a worthlerss ipod no tune or apps on it

I have checked for latest updates but there are none i had the errors wrong they are actually:
"Attempting to copy to the disc "iPod touch" failed. An error occurred while writing to the device."
"iTunes could not copy "song name" to the iPod "iPod name" because an unknown error occurred (-20)."
the strange thing is i am allowed to take things off because i had some voice recordings and they got transferred into iTunes but its just copying onto the device that is the problem i also checked my Anti-Virus software and it hasn't blocked iTunes or anything associated with Apple. i will also check my computer's manufacturing website for updates.

My iPod touch will not sync after 30 mins waiting. Is it faulty, is it i tunes site ?

Please Help.
My ipod touch has worked fine until about 4 days ago when it took about 50 mins to sync. Since then I can not even get it to move past "verrifying " stage. I have insured the pod but not sure if it is the actual device that is at fault or could there be an issue with the web site / my computer ?

Try resetting the iPo and try again. Resetting will delete nothing.

My 2nd Gen ipod touch will not sync music i have bought on it to my computer... Please help asap!

5th Generation iPod Touch will not sync music..

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I haven't been able to sync music to my iPod, but applications will sync. iTunes recognizes the iPod. I just updated it to iOS 8 today hoping the update had fixed this problem, but it hasn't. I've also tried unchecking/rechecking the "Sync Music" box; uninstalling iTunes; restarting both my iPod and my computer; using a different cable; restoring from a back up and i just set it up as a new device hoping it'd work that way. Highly disappointed in apple.. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as of now, i have a $300 paper weight.. (I am using Windows 7 and iTunes has been updated to the most current edition)

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo (unless the battery is dead, Then it tell me to charge it). Once it gave me the connect to itunes screen. I clicked restore in itunes but the ipod went back to the apple logo before the update download finished. I tried calling apple but my over the phone technical support just expired. PLEASE HELP!

This can be a corrupted software/firmware on your iPod touch. If the recovery mode you did was not forced, then try to force it into recovery mode. This is how:
1. Force it to shut down (note: this sort of shut down should not be preformed unless you are in a situation like this because it is a hardware shutdown and will not attempt to unload software, save unsaved files, safely stop system processes, etc.) to do this, hold down the power/sleep button and home button for about 7 or 10 secs. Also I might be incorrect but I heard that you can just hold down the sleep and home button until the screen goes blank and then immediately let go.
2. Have iTunes running. Hold down the home button and plug the USB cable that came with your iPod into it. Keep on holding on the home button until a picture of a USB cable going into the iTunes logo appears. You are now in a forced recovery mode. (In case your not so tech-savvy forced recovery is the same as a normal recovery mode that an iPod might do if it knows an update or restore failed.)
3. iTunes should have shown a pop-up message about it found a iPod in recovery mode. Click OK, click your iPod from the sidebar and click restore. The iPod will show the apple logo for a while and iTunes will say "preparing iPod for restore" and then "waiting for iPod" this was the longest part of updates for me.
4. iPod will reboot when restore is completed. When I update my iPod it one time showed the apple logo for one whole sync until it showed the slide to unlock screen, so do not worry. P.S if that does not work do a DFU mode restore ( I've been told DFU mode stands for device firmware update mode) I'm running out of room, so google it. Hope this helped ;)

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?
