After updating itunes my computer no longer transfers my library audio books to my ipod shuffle.

iPod shuffle 2 GB model A1373  I finally decided to download the newest iTunes and now the books I previously transferred from my library to my iTunes will not transfer to my shuffle.  Have used this unit for 14 months every day without any problems.  Devise sync test shows no ipod found      Help please.

Good day 24tomkat,
It sounds as if iTunes is not recognizing the iPod shuffle when it is connected to your Windows computer. I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article - 
iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Safe computing,

    - Try moving the backup file to a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new one.. It is locate here and you may have to have show hiddn files turned on.
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    - Also try here assuming a PC. The link provides a link for XP.

  • Home Sharing no longer working after updating iTunes

    After updating iTunes on both my computers to version 10.7, the home sharing feature is now not working. One computer can see and access the other's library but the other cannot see its. I have checked the sharing preferences on both computers. Both have 'Share my library on my local network' and 'Share entire library' checked and neither are set to require a password. I have turned on home sharing from the 'Advanced' sub menu in the menu bar and both use the same Apple ID.
    Any thoughts on how I can fix this. I think it is just a bug and should hopefully get fixed but maybe it's just me.    

    I'm up and running. Spoke with Apple and they had me go to : preferences, network and create a new location. That seems to have reset something. I had to reset all my devices back to my main network that had stopped working. The guest network will not let Home Sharing work, only the main network.
    Others have been able to use Home Sharing without clicking "Done" after typing in their password. After you click "Done" the Shared disappears in iTunes.
    Apple help people were GREAT!

  • After updating iTunes to 11.0.1.12 and updating Apple TV to 5.1.1 my Apple TV is no longer picking up my photo library. It just keeps saying "loading library" but never brings the pictures up. This didn't happen with previous versions. Any ideas?

    After updating iTunes to 11.0.1.12 and updating Apple TV to 5.1.1 my Apple TV is no longer picking up my photo library. It just keeps saying "loading library" but never brings the pictures up. It also tells me that home sharing isn't on even though it is and then I have to turn it off and on on the PC so the Apple TV even recognizes the photo library. These issues didn't happen with previous versions. Any ideas?

    Update on my previous comment. I have solved my issue. Issue was with Windows 7 firewall not operating correctly. I was unable to add itunes to the 'Allow programs to communicate through windows firewall'. Found the following page useful http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-security/windows-fire wall-cant-change-some-of-your-settings/514d78fb-39e9-47b1-b561-bc49cbdad904
    Followed the instructions to the foot of the page, restarted PC, normal service resumed on windows firewall, added itunes to list to communicate through firewall. restarted itunes, restarted appletv, success!!!
    Hope this may help somone else.

  • After updating Itunes to 11.0.4.4 my sync will not work as it says there is insufficient space when nothing else changed?

    I recently updated my iTunes to 11.0.4.4.  After doing this, my ipod touch 4Gen will no longer sync as it gives me a statement about the system not having enough memory left to sync ["The iPod...cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 2.73GB required)"].  It has 7.96 GB free on a 32GB iPod.  It synced just fine prior to the update and I did not add more than 7.96 GB of files to the library after updating iTunes.  Please Help!  This is a fustrating situation where I can not sync my music, or anything else for that matter, with this issue.  Thanks in advance for all your help.

    Illaas,
    I tried the manual method.  I was able to set the music/video to manual and then restarted the entire system.  After restart, I re-attached the ipod touch to the computer.  The sync automatically ran for everything that wasn't set to manual and it completed without a problem.  I then reset the music/video to automatically sync and restarted the entire coputer/ipod set again.  This time when I re-attached the ipod, EVERYTHING synced and there were no problems reported.  I've never had to do this before, but I will keep it in mind if something like this happens again.  Thank you for pointing me to the manual sync.

  • TS1369 After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

  • Permissions will not repair after update itunes 11.1

    Permissions will not repair in Mountain Lion 10.8.5 after updating Itunes to version 11.1

    These days it's quite normal to get a long list of 'errors' on doing a permissions repair because Disk Utility has not been upgraded to allow for some changes made to the system.
    As long as at the bottom of the list it says 'Permissions repair complete' you can safely ignore them all.

  • After updating iTunes, old library is gone

    After updating iTunes, I now get a message that tells me that my Shuffle is linked to another libary, and asks me if I want to erase my Shuffle and link to the new, empty library. When I say no, neither the computer nor iTunes recognizes that the Shuffle is connected. I do not want to erase my shuffle and start over. And what about the songs I had purchased that are in the old library? I can see an iTunes 4 Music Library file, and files for the songs I purchased on iTunes, but can not open or import them. What gives?

    Theron: It's not too big an issue. Windows and iTunes have gotten a tad confused as to what is in your library. The following link on How to recreate your Library will sort you out.

  • After updating itunes i cannot access the istore, after updating itunes i cannot access the istore

    I have updated itunes and after updating itunes I cannot access the istore through itunes.  Additionally, my Iphone 4 will not back up.  When I tunes is running my compter CPU usage is operating at 100% and I've never  had this problem before.  HELP!

    Sounds like you should reinstall itunes, i'd follow one of these, whichever is most appropriate to get it done properly because on windows there is more than just itunes that needs taken off and reinstalled.

  • HT201210 been trying to restore ipod touch for days after updating itunes. keep getting error #9. Tried it on 2 computers, with vista + XP. tried all the solutions posted. nothing is working. Thanks Apple. Didn't have this problem before updating itunes!

    Been trying to restore Ipod touch for days after updating Itunes. Error code #9. Stuck on restore screen. Tried all the solutions posted. Tried on 2 computers, Vista + XP. No device shown on computer. Thanks Apple! Didn't have this problem before update. How about rolling back your update?

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • After updating itunes ti wont work anymore

    hey, i hav had my ipod scince the end of july and hav never had any problems with that or itunes until recently.

    Thankyou

    Delete the file "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info\Sc Info.sidb"
    If you don't know how to get there, then go to Start, then Search, and search for "Sc Info.sidb", then delete it from there.
    After deleting that file, restart you computer and then try running iTunes again.

  • After update iTunes to the version 11.2.2(3) on MacBook Pro I cannot connect any apple device. iTunes is "hanging". do U have the same problems?

    after updat iTunes to the 11.2.2(3) ver I cannot connect any device iTunes after connect device (iPad3, IP5S) is hanging.. and I have to force iTunes to close. do U have the same problems?

    Hey there Michal115,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect your iOS devices without it becoming unresponsive. That would frustrate me too. I would use the following article about that very issue to help you resolve that:
    iTunes: May become unresponsive when connecting iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3219
    Start with these 3 steps to make sure the other devices are up to date as well, and there is additional troubleshooting to be done in the article if needed:
    Install any available software updates for your computer.
    For Mac OS X: Click the Apple () menu, choose Software Update, and follow the on-screen instructions.
    For Windows: Refer to the documentation for your computer for instructions on using Windows Update to update your computer.
    Update iTunes to the latest version.
    For Mac OS X: Click the Apple () menu, choose Software Update, and follow the on-screen instructions. You can also download iTunes from the Apple website.
    For Windows: Use Apple Software Update, or download iTunes from the Apple website.
    Test with automatic syncing disabled.
    For Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences. Click the Devices tab and place a check next to option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically." Click OK.
    For Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences. Click the Devices tab and place a check next to option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically." Click OK.
    Reconnect your device and test to see if the issue still occurs. If your device is recognized successfully, you may be able to isolate which type of data is causing the issue. Do this by deselecting all syncing options under each of the syncing tabs and then sync. After that, re-enable your sync options one at a time until the issue returns.
    Note: If the issue only occurs when syncing data from the Info tab is enabled (For example: Contact, Calendar, Mail account or Bookmark syncing), reset the Sync History (for Mac OS X instructions see this article, for Windows see this article).
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling
