CD Covers on my 5th G iPod mixed up

On iTunes the imported cd covers are all correctly shon and assigned to the related title/album. When playing the iPod the covers are often mixed up and not correctly assigned to the related title/album anymore. Any help ?

Yeahm same here. It just started to do it after the last little iTunes update. I think. It's extra frustrating, especially coupled with the new "feature" of not playing some songs all the way through before playing next song.
I wish I wasn't so dependent on having an iPod now. I'm on my 4th one, and I'm sure my 30G 5th Gen. is going to kick the bucket soon!
Oddly, the first one lasted the longest!
1st Gen. 5G
4rd Gen. 20G x2

5th gen iPod transfer iTunes library contents from device... Please help

I have a 5th generation iPod with video, a new laptop (Windows Vista) with the latest iTunes 10.4 installed and am trying to transfer entire contents to iTunes library. I have gone through help topics, discussions, manuals, etc. When I open My Computer and Select F: drive / iPod device my photo folders appear but none of the music files. My device does appear in iTunes but thats it. Since my previous laptop with the iTunes library associated with this iPod crashed a year ago, Im unable to access anything from previous library . I have been at this for 2+ hours, I hope someone is able to help me, please. Thanks.

Podcasts listened to on classic (5th gen) iPod don't sync to iPhone

I have the feeling this has been covered before, but I get lost in threads of various ages talking about various versions of iOS, various versions of the Podcasts App, etc.
I have an iPhone 5C with the most current version of iOS (7.1.1) and the Podcasts (2.1.2) app. My 17" MBP has the most recent version of Mavericks (10.9.3) and iTunes. (11.2.2). I also have a 60GB, 5th gen iPod.
Before I got my iPhone, I would plug my classic iPod into the Mac to sync. Worked flawlessly. I would download new podcasts episodes into iTunes, plugging in to sync would update the played count on both the computer and iPod depending on where I played them, and mark the played episodes to delete, and push new episodes to the iPod.
When I set up my iPhone, there was some oddness originally with random old episodes showing up on the iPhone, which then propogated back to the mac. I marked those as played, which got rid of them, and haven't had that problem again. I have my iPhone set up with the Sync tab on, refresh at every 6 hours, limit episodes off, delete played episodes on, cell data off. I have the download episdoes off for now, so the phone itself only updates episodes when I sync to the computer. I recently changed that. I'm not sure if it will effect anything. I generally sync the iPhone over the wifi, although I do plug it into the laptop to charge at night - I'm not sure if this intiates a sync or not with the laptop lid closed.
The podcast app seems to work perfectly if I use the iPhone as my listening device. I listen to something there, and it shows up as listened to on the Mac, changes propogate there well. Later, if I plug in the iPod, it reflects those changes.
The only problem I seem to be having so far is listening to podcasts on the iPod. If I listen there, when I plug it in to sync with the Mac, those changes show on the mac. Later, if I sync the iPhone, however, changes that originated on iPod do not sync to the iPhone, even if the Mac is reflecting those changes, do not sync to the iPod. So I play one of three new episodes of a podcast on my iPod, sync it, my Mac now shows only two new episodes of that podcast, my iPhone still shows three unplayed episodes, even after a sync.
Is there anything I'm missing?

Well i have a solution that does not get messy.
very simple:
1. Make Sure your all your iPod songs are backed up.
2. Restore iPod to factory settings
3. re-sync iPod media
4. enjoy.
Hope this helped

How do I use 5th Gen iPod and 2009 Civic USB?

I tried everything I can think of to get my iPod working with my 2009 Civic. From what I've read in the manual, I just be able to plug it into the USB and the car finds it, displays the Honda "H" logo/mark on the screen and away I go. I wish it were that simple.
I have a 5th Gen iPod with verison 1.3 firmware. It's formatted for Windows so it's a FAT32 storage format. I restored the iPod and put the music I wanted back on it so I could test again and still no dice. I don't have another iPod to test with.
Is there something I missed? Anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

The problem ended up being the controller board/card/box (whichever of these) in the car that was malfuctioning. I gathered that they had to do some diagnostics, comparitive testing (with another vehicle and audio system known to work), and test my audio system before isolating and replacing the controller.
I bought my Honda Cerified Used, so it was all covered by the dealer and Honda. I asked what it would cost had the car not been Cerfited Used. I was given an estimate of $350 USD. I know labor alone was $198 USD.
So, if you are expericing the same issue of no connectivity between your Honda and i(Device) and your car DOES NOT display any sort of error message on the audio system, this may be your problem. If you wish to get it fixed without a warranty to cover it, the cost will neighbor $350 USD. An alternative and cheaper option is to buy a headphone to headphone jack audio cable, plugging one end into your AUX outlet (if equipped) and the other your i(Device). Plugging into the AUX outlet does not charge or let you control your i(Device) through the car stereo.
Thanks planb77 for responding to my post.
Cheers.

How do I change the format of my 5th Generation iPod from Windows to Mac

How do I change the format of my 5th Gen iPod from a Windows format to the Mac?

But this will delete all the songs I have? I have a lot of them on my iPod classic
Yes.
I want to transfer (well copy) all my songs from the iPod to itunes on the mac - and then have the itunes library as being placed on the external drive. The last part I think I know, but I can't work out how to copy music from my iPod

Hi i turned on my ipod today and discovered a horizontal line of dead pixels i ran it through diagnostics mode everything seems fine. i was wondering if there were any fixes i could do to it myself before mailing it in to apple for failing on me. no it isnt covered under warranty

This has been discovered to be a very common issue with the 5th Generation iPods, unfortunately.
There is a very informative thread on the topic here: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8177702#8177702
Hopefully that can answer your question.

Does my 5th Generation ipod charger have a warranty?

I got my 5th generation Ipod touch not even four months ago and my charger cord that it came with will not charge my ipod unless my ipod is sitting upside down.. It cannot be laying flat or anything to charge. The cord is not bent or opened with wires showing or anything.. Does the cord have a warranty? Thanks.

Yes, the cable is covered by the same 1-year warranty as the iPod.

5th Gen Ipod not recognized by windows or itunes. Have tried it all. Any Ideas?

Hello everyone. I have a 5th generation Ipod I recently purchased that I'm having what seems to be an common issue. When I connect the ipod to my computer via USB, the Ipod is not recognized in windows or Itunes. Occasionally the Ipod will charge when connected but not always. Though this is the same for the old wire I used and the new one I purchased today. Even when shown charging the Ipod is not recognized and there is no noise that a device has been connected. I have tried the 4 R's (without Restore) which I can't do, chaninging the drive letter, disabling start up software,uninstalling and reinstalling all Apple Software. I have tried connecting to another computer and have gotten the same result. When I check the diagnostic screen on the ipod it shows that a usb cable is detected. I have upgraded all my driver software, disabled and reenabled them. I'm almost 3 hours from the nearest store so that it out of the question. I'm curious if anyone has any other ideas and will try anything you think might be the issue and fix. Thank you for time.

From my experience, the only way you're gonna get a PC afflicted with this disease to work with a 5th gen nano is to roll back to an earlier version of iTunes. Those affected have been exhausted by this ongoing issue. To update or not to update? And I always say never update unless you have to, and turn off all that auto update mess!
I have two core2duo lappies running 32b vista. My workflow dictates 32b fyi. One is acer aspire running itunes v 11.1 (.0.126), 5th gen nano was originally formatted and works just fine on this machine to this day. My other is the bigger badder lenovo thinkpad and the 5th gen will NOT mount using any version of itunes past 11.0 (.1.12) Windows mounts it just fine. itunes is not having it. no shirt no shoes no service.
I have both a 4th and 5th gen nano. The 4th gen works great on both machines, I even successfully tested it with the latest version (11.1.5) before subsequent deletion on the thinkpad! Weird huh? I think my next experiment might be to restore my 5th gen w/ a Mac and theeeeen plug it into PC itunez.
I'm at a loss on the thinkpad. Scanned for intruders. Cut the Lenovo bloat. Executed system and reg maintenance. Took down msconfig to a safe mode + itunes level to attempt to resolve possible sw conflicts but to no avail. NO NO NO. Every single dang port, every time on the thinkpad. Has me feeling like others might get the same treatment by the next itunes update. :|
So in summary for me:
5th gen nano and thinkpad are a NoGo on 11.1^ last working version for me = 11.0.1
5th gen nano is working on an acer aspire 11.1.0 but no way in the world am I updating
4th gen nano is kicking 5th gen nano's @zz so what would make me want to buy a new ipod?

5th Gen iPod, seen by Windoze, not by iTunes

I've been too busy lately to hang out keep up with the iTunes 7 issues, but I still have to stop the iPod service, attach my iPod, start iTunes/start the service every time I want to sync. Is there any hope that this is a temporary condition or is this just how it's gonna be from now on? iTunes 7, 5th Gen iPod w/1.2 software, XP Pro SP2.
TIA for your comments/help.

Wow, 10 days and not a single reply. Guess I'm not the only one too dumb to figure out what's wrong with iTunes.

TS1363 Updated to iTunes to latest version 11.1.4.62 on my Windows 8 machine. iTunes no longer recognizes my 5th Gen Ipod. It does however recognize my 80gb Ipod Video. I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes as directed (twice) & rebooted pc. no luck.

I just updated iTunes to the 11.1.4.62 (as the pop up directed me to) on my Windows 8 machine. As a result iTunes will no longer recognize my 5th generation Ipod Nano (yes two). I receive a pop up saying "Ipod has been detected but could not be identified properly" I've followed the recommendations seveal times: a) disconnected and reconnected. b) rebooted computer c) unistalled and reinstalled iTunes d) tried different cables e) tried different USB porst f) rebooted Ipod.... the window keeps popping up like a middle finger (you get the point)
iTUnes WILL however, recognize my 4th gen Nano and my 80gb Video (classic) without problem
Needless to say, I'm frustrated and ticked off over all of this wasted time.
Anyone solved this issue yet?
Any good suggestions?
Please advise
Kindest regards,

c) unistalled and reinstalled iTunes
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

Voice Memos on 5th gen ipod

Hello,
I have a 5th generation iPod. I recorded some voice memos and put them onto my iTunes, where they played fine. Then I tried to put them onto my iPod later, and while my iPod is connected to the computer, they show up as songs on my iPod, but once I disconnect the iPod, they no longer show up. Does anyone know why this would happen and how I can fix it?
Thanks!

5th gen iPod Touch crashes spontaneously

Hi there
My 5th Gen iPod Touch crashes at random times, usually when on wifi. When it does this, it resets my clock by ten or twenty or thirty minutes and I have to fix the time because it does not automatically restore via the Internet. I tried restoring my iPod, both at home and at the Apple Store, but when the person helping me ran a diagnostic on it I was told nothing came up. My diagnostic data was still on the iPod and I had three kernel panic reports and about eight reset counter reports, so I'm not sure why I was told that. I've seen a similar thread on here saying it was probably the battery, so I thought that was the problem, but I've just been told otherwise. I don't know what to do because last night I plugged in my iPod and left the room, then came back to find the screen cracked (I'm guessing having to do with the battery). No one else was in the room and I didn't drop it. Because I don't know how to reproduce the problem, I'm having a hard time proving it exists regardless of diagnostic data, and now it looks like I dropped it and that damaged the device, when that is honestly not the case. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you.

Hello
No, I did not restore from backup. I restored to factory settings at the Apple Store and when I got home and tried to set up my email, my iPod restarted again. The time reset to ten minutes previous.
I'm mentioning the crash reports because they all correspond to the times my iPod restarted. It has crashed four times in the last hour and all I've done is download two apps (Podcasts and Skype) and added my email accounts.
Thanks very much.

My 5th gen. ipod died and they replaced it with a new one, but I'm having problems getting the music. An error message says that its not authorized on this computer. The ipod is synced but it wont let me add what music I want.

My 5th gen ipod died and apple replaced it with a new one. I synced it up to the itunes that I already have on my computer but an error message keeps coming up telling me that its not authorized on this computer. What do I do?
