Sync problems after upgrade to iTunes 9

I've seen lots of posts on this but none that directly match my situation. Bought a few TV eps that required upgrade to iTunes v9 so I upgraded. Now only some of the shows will sync to my iPod. Following the sync I've noticed that it is now also removing TV shows that were previously on the iPod, and removing or not locating shows and videos within iTunes which have been there for awhile. These shows are still showing on the iPod though - the whole thing is a mess.
I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 with extra memory and a Seagate 320g external drive that hold iTunes. The iPod is a 32g classic.
Any hep would be appreciated.

I have very similar symptoms after upgrade to iTunes 9.1. During sync of Calendars (or if Calendars disabled, during iPhone backup step), Outlook hangs & sync never completes. Outlook stays hung, and hangs again if I kill and restart, until I reboot. Hugely frustrating.

  • Problems after upgrading to iTunes version 6

    Hello,
    I've been going through the threads a lot since I have had problems after upgrading to iTunes v. 6. It looks like a lot of people have had the same issues, and I have tried some things that were recommended. After I upgraded, iTunes would not open. I tried:
    1. deleting sidb file
    2. doing the msconfig thing suggested in discussion boards
    3. going into safe mode and deleting 4 and 6 letter weird files in DOS - I found 3 that I deleted
    iTunes worked after this -- then I bought a song and it said my computer was not authorized, after I authorized computer (that never happened before), iTunes worked for about 15 more minutes and then closed down abruptly. I haven't been able to open it since.
    I also downloaded Spybot search & destroy and that did not find anything. I am using McAfee, and have scanned for viruses with McAfee and AdAware.
    Now, when I restart my computer, a bunch of windows pop up with Chinese/Japanese looking characters and say that device (I think) was not found. I seem to be able to use everything except iTunes and Quicktime. When I open the Task Manager, iPodService.exe and iTunesHelper.exe and qttask.exe are there, but when I click on Quicktime or iTunes the file flashes in Task Manager and then disappears.
    I'm not sure where to go from here.
    Any help would be apppreciated -- I'd like to be able to open iTunes!

    Hello,
    I used Nickroo's post:
    I was able to get iTunes launched (with the help of Tech Support) in a very unsafe environment. I owe it to those who may need this after me. It will get you going, but you will be extremely vulnerable to internet virus assaults. Please do not use this approach, until you have exhausted every other available solution for your issue in the KB.
    There are three Steps 1) Uninstall 2) Disble and 3) Reinstall.
    UNISTALL Uninstall iTunes using Windows utility Add Remove Program available in Control Panel.
    DISABLE Disable all third party System Services and Startup Items using using MSCONFIG utility as described in Service Document http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302538
    RE-INSTALL Re-install iTunes6 + QT7. Launch it under the Selective Startup Option.
    It worked ! You realize among other things at this point you have your Antivirus and Firewall disabled. When I started my computer in the Normal Startup Option, iTunes fails to work again. So I have ahead of me the long and ardous task of ruling out the service that is causing conflict with iTunes6. Then work with the software vendor to arrive at a solution.
    This seems to have worked so far- I haven't started to go through ruling out what made iTunes not work; I also haven't tried to connect my iPod or burn a CD, so we'll see.

  • Sync hangs after upgrade to iTunes 9

    After upgrading to iTunes 9.1.0.79 from 8.xx last week I have been unable to sync Outlook contacts and Calendar - sync hangs and never completes.
    iPhone 3GS on 3.1.3
    (No other changes made to laptop at the time - direct issue with upgrade to iTunes 9)
    Spend 1:45 on phone with Apple Support last week - very helpful - but no fix, and frustrated. (Have case number) Removed all Apple Apps - reinstalled, looked for list of DLL's on my PC etc during the call.
    Any new ideas to resolve will be gratefully rec'd, or fix from Apple.
    Many Thanks.

  • Apple TV problem after upgrading to iTunes 7.5

    PROBLEM: After upgrading to 7.5, Apple TV no longer recognized iTunes and vice versa.
    ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS: Removed and reinstalled iTunes 7.5 from scratch. Reset @TV to Factory Defaults and reconfigured. Removed Apple TV from iTunes Preferences/Apple TV/Remove Apple TV.
    iTunes no longer finds @TV, either in the Preferences/Apple TV pane, or in the Device List. Everything worked perfectly before the 7.5 upgrade. All other features and devices working fine. Have reviewed all postings and eliminated the possibility of firewall or port problems.
    Suggestions welcome! Thanks.

    I have partially resolved the problem. Something with the 7.5 upgrade changed the network protocols being used by the Apple TV... switching to a wired network from end to end with a full shut down and reboot has the @TV back online... I am still working on trying to solve the wireless side of the equation.

  • Lots of problems after upgrading to ITunes 7.0.1.8 - BE CAREFUL !!!!!

    Before upgrading to version 7.x of ITunes read the various posts here about issues people have had. It seems that not everyone will have the SAME problems (very unpredictable results). I did not have the same problems that others had, but I did have my own set of problems.
    This version of ITunes is NOT of the normal high standard that we have come to appreciate from Apple (in fact it is more like the poor standard that people have come to expect from MicroSoft).
    Here are the problems I had after upgrading to version 7.0.1.08:
    1) All 18000 songs could not be found in the library. It took 2 hours for ITunes to determine this. The reason for this is that after the install my preferrences for my ITunes library were changed from what I had previously set to the standard c:/my documents/my music/itunes..... No previous upgrade had done this.
    2) All my streaming radio stations where deleted.
    3) During the installation process my hard drive was scanned and all music files that were NOT in my ITunes library where added to the library. I had no choice in this. This took me 8 hours to manually recover from this - and delete all those I did NOT want in my ITunes library.
    4) All 40 odd smart playlists were deleted and I had to recreate them manually.
    5) For all tunes that I had applied a "My Rating" to the "My Rating" information was deleted.
    6) During the install process it seems that my entire ITUNES library was re-organised, resulting in a large number of songs that can no longer be found and a large number that have been duplicated.
    7) Since the upgrade, ITunes does not always start successfully.
    8) Since the upgrade, my 60gb IPOD is NOT always recognised and when it is recognised, there are about 300 songs that will NOT transfer to the IPOD. There does not seem to be a reasonable explation for this at this stage.
    9 All the fields I has previously inlcuded in my display were changed and it looks like a STANDARD set of fields was applied to the various views.
    10) It has taken 2 entire days (since the upgrade) to re-organise my ITunes library (and my computer) back to the way I WANT it. After this I am still having problems with the IPOD not being recongnised and I still can't get all songs to synch.
    I have posted this as a warning to others.
    I do NOT need or WANT responses along the lines of previous posts that say that people are attacking APPLE for no vailid reason or that this is a MICROSOFT problem.
    This is just posted so that people can make an informed decission before upgrading.

    Thank you for describing the problems so well. I also have been going nuts trying to restore my Itunes Library to its original (or acceptable) condition. I have a 5th gen 30G Video with about 4250 songs on it. After downloading 7 I found that every song in my Library had been dulplicated or triplicated. Then, a day latr, when I had downloaded album art, I discovered that every other song in any album I had downloaded (from Itunes or my own cd)prior to perhaps version 5 or version 6 could not be found. Luckily, I had an generation 4 Ipod with the original Library and I was able to download that to my external harddrive. I have spending pointless, arduous hours pointing Itunes to the correct file. Its faster to re-download the CD. Of course, I can't do that for any music I had bought from Itunes directly. Its weird because the name of the song is in Itunes, just the file can't be found. And why every other file? When I go into earlier (6 and before)Itunes Libraries, the music files are missing from them. Where did they go? When I try to sync my Ipod with Itunes, it takes forever because Itunes is searching for the missing files. I have tried to ask Apple support directly but I have gotten no response. Very, very frustrating! Any headway with your problems? Lisa

  • Cured a sync problem after upgrade 10.5.1.

    Since the update of OS X.5.1 and iTunes 7.6, I could no more sync :
    iSync crashed, dot mac sync event did not register again my macbook (I deleted all the machines registered from another mac), and I could not sync my iTouch via iTunes...
    This is solved now and described at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1380833&tstart=0
    Hope this help.

    Will try installing OS X 10.5.1 again from the downkoad that you recommended. Won't be able to do this untill after the New Year but I'll let you know if this helped. I had another problem after he 10.5.1 upgrade and that was that the Security update 2007-009 also refused to install. Could this be related too the problems with Disk utility and the permissions problems.

  • IPod Sync Error after Upgrading to iTunes 10 and ios5

    Thanks
    Kris

    Dear Mr. Sawyer,
                                To my surprise, the version is shown as 10.0.1.22. I will uninstall itunes and try loading the same again. After uninstalling do we need to delete any registry entries for Windows XP.
    Thanks for your response and concern.

  • Can't sync ipod after upgrade of itunes!

    When I upgraded to itunes 7, it took all of the songs off of my ipod, but they are still in my library. When I restored the ipod, I got a message that the library was not copied into my ipod "because you are not authorized to play them on this computer." Anybody have any idea how to fix this?

    try playing one of the songs for a few seconds in iTunes. do you get asked to authorise? if so, and if you do, do the songs transfer the next time you sync?

  • Mounting problems after upgrade to iTunes 7.6.1

    This house has two Mac laptops, both running the latest 10.4.11.
    1. After the install yesterday of iTunes 7.6.1 (9), the iBook would not mount applications downloaded as disk images. This I repaired by removing two 'now' unacceptable fonts in the System Collection. However, it now fails to verify most CDs it writes, which are Taiyo Yuden CD-R 52x. (An earlier sporatic problem, I believe Apple had attributed to its failure to stabilize the Firewire bus sufficiently before using it.)
    2. Yesterday I installed iTunes on a G4 PowerBook at the same time. Before the install it had never written a coaster, using Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden media. An hour before installing it, I had archived 1/3 of the drive to Taiyo Yuden DVD-R 16x discs (TYG03), which the drive can write to. (Caution: using these discs on some older drives will damage them!)
    After the install of iTunes, file-system check, permission fix, reboot, the G4 will burn no DVD. It creates the disc image, then reads the first track of the disc and (before writing a thing),
    DVDSpanner: Burn started, Sun Feb 24 22:37:09 2008
    DVDSpanner: Burning to DVD-R media with DAO strategy in TSSTcorp CD/DVDW SH-S182M LA00 via FireWire.
    DVDSpanner: Requested burn speed was 47x, actual burn speed is 18x.
    DVDSpanner: Burn underrun protection is supported, and enabled.
    DVDSpanner: Burn failed, Sun Feb 24 22:37:16 2008
    DVDSpanner: Burn sense: 5/24/00 Illegal Request, Invalid field in CDB
    DVDSpanner: Burn error: 0x80020022 The device failed to respond properly, unable to recover or retry.
    Does anyone know what a CDB is?
    I suspect iTunes the cause because of the fact that both computers failed only & just after iTunes was installed, iTunes writes to optical media, 10.4.9 damaged the LaCie driver, and problems 1 and 2 may both be classed as problems mounting devices.
    Any kludges or suggestions? Thanks!
    Bruce

    No need to all respond at once, I've fixed the computer; though this doesn't solve the problem, if it existed; and now makes that moot.
    All the various applications, but Toast apparently, use the same 'device driver' and consequent log file. LaCie's 'disc recording support' driver is now dated February 15, 2008 (on its website only). So, though it looks the same to me, I had an excuse to upgrade to the same one installed earlier. All works now.
    This is a sad application of the professional's last maxim: 'When all seems lost, re-install.' So, I'm marking this solved, though this form of solution is the least desirable: it may be only temporary; and now one can't tell.
    Thanks to all who thought about it.

  • Can't sync iPod after upgrading to iTunes 11

    I had a Windows XP computer with an older version of  iTunes which I synced (by cable) with my iPod Classic (version 2.0).  The XP computer recently crashed and I bought a Windows 8.1 computer on which I installed iTunes 11, and authorized the new computer.  I managed to restore my music to the new computer from backup, but now when I sync, newly purchased tracks are not transferred to the iPod. Also I can't seem to rip from CDs anymore, the "Import" window doesn't open when I put a music CD in the drive.  The tracks in my playlist purchased from iTunes have a "cloud" icon next to them, which I believe means they haven't been redownloaded to my computer but are on the iCloud servers.      I don't understand iTunes 11.  Does iCloud stop devices from syncing by wire?   I don't want iCloud or any new features, I just want my old functions to work!  Help!

    Okay! Thanks! Followed the link to that threat and figured out the problem. I had moved iTunes to a sub-folder in Applications (for grouping together as a stack in the dock, something stacks should have been able to do anyway) and when it installed the new version it didn't check where the old one was, it just dropped the new one in Applications.
    Everyone else who has this problem double check and make sure you don't have two different versions of iTunes: one in the applications folder and another that your dock shortcut directs to.
