1GB shuffle shows only 489.8mb in iTunes?!
I just got a new (to me) 1st gen iPod shuffle with 1GB, but when I sync it in iTunes, it says that it only has 489.8 MB available--I wonder whether I accidentally got one that was only 512K? Why would I not be seeing the entire 1GB?
It holds up to 240 songs if you choose short songs . . . far fewer if you choose longer tracks. . . .
It will show the size on the USB connector.

Ipod shows only 111 songs but itunes says has 16Gb on it
Itunes says 16Gb on ipod but only 111 songs show up. Windows explorer also says ipod is half ful. Tried the change drive letter thing and get no luck help
How are your tracks encoded? If they are in a lossless format such as Apple Lossless, AIFF, or even WAV, then the individual file size of each track is going to be very large.

N.IrelandWelcome to the Forums!
This usually results from a failed or interrupted sync. Repeat the sync, and if that does not work, you'll need to Restore your iPod (from within iTunes, summary tab) and then repeat the full sync.
Hope this helps... -
I purchased songs from iTunes Radio on my iPhone, but now the only place they will show up is in the iTunes Store app on my phone, even after syncing to my computer a million times, the songs do not show up in my library or anywhere else. My phone is not syncing properly, I wanted to add another playlist to it that I created on my Mac. I pluged in my phone and made sure the playlist I wanted to add was checked to be on my phone when I synced.
The playlist I wanted to add was "Country." It is clearly checked. I also wanted to add the "Recently Added" playlist, which I also checked before sycing. Currently, my phone only has the "Purchased" playlist and my "All Songs" playlist on it. When I hit sync, iTunes added another playlist automatically added another playlist to the list above and checked it. It was titled "ALL SONGS 1" and had ten fewer songs in it than the playlist I had created, "ALL SONGS" had. This playlist, however does not show up on my phone after syncing, nor does "Country" or "Recently Added." (Every time I sync, another playlist is created as "ALL SONGS 2, 3, 4, etc.") One of the songs (I have not, yet checked the other songs) that I purchased from within iTunes Radio shows up in the "ALL SONGS 1" on this screen:
But does not show up anywhere else. This playlist does not show up anywhere but the two screens above. The ALL SONGS 1 or 2 playlists do not show up here:
When I search for those song in my library, it shows that I do not have them:
But if I go to the iTunes store, I get the play button and not the price of the song:
This is what things look like from my phone's side of things:
"Summertime Sadness," one of the songs I bought from iTunes Radio, does not show up in the iTunes store under purchased "All" or "Not on This iPhone"
But, it does show up under "Recent Purchases"
Also, this is what playlists are on my phone after syncing a million times:
Only what was on there before I started any of this. "Summertime Sadness" and the other songs I bought from inside iTunes Radio, do not show up in either of these playlists. Please, help me.Hi Petrafin,

i have tried everything that is recommended by apple to get my ipod shuffle 4th gen to sync with itunes or even show up on my computer does anyone have suggestions?
Hey Xxx_Dank_xxX,
Have you ever been able to sync your iPod shuffle to iTunes on your computer, or has something recently occurred? Are you working with a Mac or a PC? Without knowing what has been recommended to you, I'm going to start here with the basics troubleshooting for this issue.

I cannot get my ipod touch or iphone to be recognized by Itunes on my mac mini. Only when i download itunes each time afresh, will it show up the first time. Then these devices will not be recognized subsequently. Is it because i am not uninstalling itunes before I download it? Surely this is a basic thing, ie that my devices need to recognize each other?
After you dry the iPod:
How to fix a wet iPod or iPhone | eHow.comfix-wet-ipod-iphone.html
Connect the iPod to a charging source overnight and then try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipod shuffle 4th gen charges plays but doesnt show up in windows or itunes
Ipod shuffle 4th gen charges plays but doesnt show up in windows or itunes tried to check usb driver but computer says it is working properly
Just disconnecting it without ejecting should not cause permanent damage. It may cause data corruption, if iTunes was in the process of syncing at the time. But iTunes should still see the shuffle and (maybe) tell you to Restore it.
Is it possible that the "accident" damaged the USB cable?
Make sure you have done this on the shuffle since the problem occurred
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
And you should also shut down (power off) the computer, if you have not already.
Have you tried more than one USB port on the computer (not a hub if you use one)? You can also try it with all other USB devices disconnected, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used).
If those things do not help, what version of Windows do you use? -

Shuffle shows in explorer, works on iBook, not in iTunes on XP
My wife has a shuffle, my iPod photo works/updates etc. on the PC, the shuffle shows up fine in Explorer and I can browse it. I also plugged it into my iBook, shows up fine there too and says it's linked to the other computer and shows it as formatted FAT32, I even updated it via the mac iPod updater, but my music library is on the PC.
I've updated the software, rebooted, reset the shuffle, etc. but the PC iPod updater and iTunes will not recognize it. I don't think the shuffle is defective, I think the software to recognize shuffles has bugs.
Can anyone help? Why won't it just let you pick the drive letter, why must it autodetect?more weirdness, works in my other PC, this one has a ton of USB devices and drive letters taken up, I stopped every exe and service but the critical ones, and it still doesn't work in this one with all the songs.
winamp can send songs to it, I guess I'll just use that. -
My iphone 4 only shows image to connect to itunes. It will not come up in itunes and does not appear to be connecting to my computer. I have attempted to restart my phone numerous times but it just keeps going back to this same screen. Please help.
Did you make a backup because you can't recover what's on our phone. Follow these steps to resotre your phone (the phone has to be plugged into your computer):
1) On your phone, press your sleep button for 2 seconds
2) After the two seconds, don't release the sleep and press the home button for 10 seconds
3) Release the sleep button and keep the home buttton pressed untill your computer detects your phone.
4) A window should pop up and you should have the restore button. Press it. -
so i connected my ipod shuffle to my apple computer and the status light on my ipod shuffle shows that it is charging but when i look for it on the pc dock or in itunes it doesn't show it at all.... so what do I do???
If you have not already, I would shut down (power off) your computer. Do this to Reset your shuffle
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
Start up computer. Run iTunes. Connect shuffle.
If you have added a new USB device recently (since the last time it worked properly), you may want to try disconnecting it to see if that makes any difference. -

I bought about 350 musics on iTunes since I started using iPhone, but when I click on the link to see the items I have bought, iTunes shows me only 204 musics. This is a problem that annoys me because I have authorized a new device where I'd like to listen to all musics I have bought. I have already turned on the automatic transferences on the iTunes preferences so that all musics, books and apps are automatically transferred to the device. Even so, iTunes continues to show only 204 musics and I am not able to see all musics I have bought.
So, is there anything I'm missing here? Is there other local on iTunes where I could see all musics I have bought instead of only a subset of them?
Thanks in advance for any help,
MárcioJust to better clarify what is happening: when I click on the link to show the musics I have bought on iTunes, musics that I had already bought some time ago do not appear anymore. So, I'm not able to download them anymore. For instance, in the set of the musics iTunes does not show me anymore there are 17 Peter Gabriel's musics. They are not shown and I cannot download them. So, how could I be able to download all musics I have bought instead of only 204 musics?
Thanks again

I added a custom ringtone . Then later I tried to add another three set but now after sync . Am not able to get rid of the first one... It's still there as my custom ringtone. But my iPhone in iTunes shows all four... But the phone shows only one...?
Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!
