My ipod is all messed up now

At first, some of the songs would not play and skip. I fixed the problem by removing the songs and putting them again on my ipod. Now my itunes will not play or pick a song in the middle and play it. I also have the '!', however, after i reset it, now there is a check mark telling me to disconnect the ipod and its already disconnected. Trying to restore the ipod did not work either.
I have no idea what to do.

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • Itunes library rearranged itself...all messed up now!

    Very weird problem happened to me with itunes. Last night I wanted to move a playlist from my ipod to my itunes. I have a program called TuneAid that does such a thing. I moved over a playlist with a hundred or so songs into my itunes library. The move seemed to go OK but when I started to play songs in my itunes library, I encountered a very strange problem...there are now hundreds of songs that have the wrong information for them.
    The song information (title, artist, year, album, track number) is still in tact, but it is for the wrong song. For example, I clicked on a song by the Rolling Stones, but what played was a song by the Beatles. So I searched for the Beatles song that was playing and found it, but when I played that, a song by Billy Joel plays. I spent an hour or so renaming files but I think there are still a couple hundred left.
    What's strange is not all the songs in my library were messed up. I have about 2000 songs, but only a large handful were messed up. The second thing is that it wasn't just the songs in the playlist that I transferred from my ipod that got messed up. Some songs that were not on my ipod now have the wrong metadata.
    I tried to restore a previous itunes library, but that didn't work. All that did was put an exclamation point by the song where files could not be found. This helps me identify the songs with the wrong path but I do not know what that song is now labeled.
    Hope this description. Is there any hope for me or do I have to rename all these files? Is there anything I can do with the XML file or the .itl files.
    Thanks!

    Mind if I wait around and see if you get an answer, cibt?
    I can't fathom the iTs way of doing things - but not quite doing things. Are files Windows files of are they iTs? What job does the .itl file have? Is iTs just a series of pointers to (real) Windows files?
    Can files be moved around Windows folders and be recognised by iTs, or is iTs a file manager too?

  • IPod is all messed up

    Hello,
    last night I plugged in my ipod to my computer and charged it up, everything seemed normal..I left it plugged in over night, but when I tried to turn it on, nothing happened. So I reset it, and the battery was dead. I figured my computer must have turned off and the ipod was left on, so it used all the battery power...but noe really weird stuff is happening...
    when I plug it back in, the battery icon says it is fully charged..when i unplugged it, it went back to very low battery power. Then the icon changed to look like it was charging, but it wasnt plugged in...the ipod keeps beeping at me. then a message popped up saying "the current attached acsessory is not supported by this ipod". again, it is not plugged into anything, and there are no headphones plugged into it. after this the battery icon looked fully charged. now it's back to very low. the light also keeps turning on and off without me doing anything. the music plays fine, and it is recognized by my computer....but i can't tell if it's charged or not. sometimes the battery icon just disappears...

    will apple replace the battery for a fee even if they figured out that the ipod is acting this way because it was possibly damaged in some way? i have only had it since july 19 (but it was bought on july 11...it was a gift). i can't understand why apple would force me to buy a brand new ipod after only having it for a little more then one month, just because the battery needs replaced. though it might be more then the battery because it keeps beeping randomly..as though the power ran out...yet the ipod it still playing music.
    heres the truth...i didnt post this because i didnt want anyone automatically telling me there is no hope before thinking about other ways to solve the problem. i accidently machine washed and machine dried my ipod in the pocket of my pants. im surprised it still works as much as it does!

  • Played with files/folders when trying to add 2nd library all messed up now.

    I know there are many threads on this subject. First when I got my new laptop I transfered my library. It worked but the folder listings looked different/odd to me. Now husband decided he wanted a nano and I tried to add 2nd library to my laptop. I think I followed the directions but apparently did not. I also tried to move and drag some files/folders together because I have so many folders. There are multiple itunes, itunes music, ipod ?files/folders. I have the same problem as others ! shows up when I tried to play any songs. Find in other location. I found them but then what do I do? I barely know computer basics so any help needs to be very, very basic. How should I proceed? How should my folders look? Music-> iTunes->iPod-> Album Artwork->iTunes-> iTunes music etc. If I can't get itunes to work should I delete all music from computer and remove itunes and start over? Frankly I do not know why they don't have a video to follow to help computer stupid people like me. By the number of posts you would think hey make videos to cover these problems. My iPod 80GB is fine with everything present. I have been good about keeping back ups on disks. My music library contains only 140 music purchases and has a total of 900 songs, album artwork, and 25 photos. Any help would be great there is a lot of stress in the house about this subject. Thank you all for your time.

  • Media kind is all messed up now....

    I have a ton of music videos, all of which are in mpeg-4 format. The problem is they won't play on my car stereo or ipod because it isn't recognized as a video because the media kind says "music". I can 't switch it to anything like "pod cast video" or "movie" or "music video" because in the drop down menu for media kind my only options are "music", "podcast", "Itunes U", "audio book", or "voice memo". Any ideas on how to fix this?

    try if this script can help:
    _*Set Video Kind of Selected v3.1*_
    +This script will change the video kind property of the selected tracks to your choice of "Movie", "Music Video" or "TV Show". Additionally, "Show Name", "Season Number", and "Episode Number" can also be set or cleared for each selected track.

Protected files, such as those purchased from the iTunes Store, cannot be changed. Requires iTunes 7 or better.+

My daughter and I lost a bunch of album covers and when my daughter deleted her music and tried to put it back on her iPod touch, it won't put it back.

  • Please Help!  My iPod is all messed up!

    Hi,
    I just updated my iPod & now When I search for music by "artist" or "album" I just get a list of the songs, just like when you choose "songs". Does anyone know how to fix this?
    TIA,
    Gina

    Gina,
    That's a weird one. Try a hard reset (holding menu and the select button). If that doesn't work, restore the iPod's software.

  • One page all messed up

    I'm not sure that this has anything to do with the code at all.  It just looks as if images have not been uploaded to your server for some reason.
    One other suggestion - have you tried connecting to your server using Cyberduck and then deleting the whole of your site?  If not, then it might be worth doing this and then start from scratch and re-publish your site to a local folder from iWeb and then upload afresh using Cyberduck.
    If you are still having problems, then you could try and re-create the page itself that is giving you problems in iWeb and then upload and see if this makes a difference.  Could just be a rogue page so to speak.

  • Moved iPod to new computer and now it is all messed up

    Help! I just got a new computer and I tried to move my ipod to the new computer. I backed up my library to CDROM, then deauthorized the old computer and authorized the new computer. I loaded iTunes on the new machine and restored my library. Everything looked fine until I tried to put new songs on the ipod from a CD. The new songs showd up in the itunes library and they show up up as being on the ipod on the PC screen, but when the ipod was disconnected, they could not be accessed from the ipod. I tried all of the R's but it not only didn't solve the problem, but now nothing is on the ipod at all. When I connect the ipod, i get the setup assistant box and when I put the Ipod name and click ok, it says that it synced and itunes goes back to saying eveything is still there, even though it is not. Any suggestions?

    at this point, uninstall using the adobe uninstallers, if possible.
