Error message when plugging into iTunes

I keep getting error messages that say something like my computer cannot read my iPod hard drive or that iTunes doesn't recognize my iPod.
For what reasons am I constantly receiving these messages? My theory is one of the following: 1) I bought my 5th Gen. iPod they day they came out and I just got a crappy one from the first batch off the factory floor; 2) some kind of magnet is destroying my information; or 3) I am downloading some kind of corrupted podcasts.
If someone has any suggestions or recommendations, I would be forever grateful. I'm just really tired of constantly re-downloading all my songs and podcasts on my iPod. It's an annoying waste of time and my iPod is just so unreliable.
Thanks!

  • IPod error message when plugged into Macbook Pro

    My iPod will charge to my Macbook Pro for a moment or so then I get an error message stating that "This device or accessory is not supported..yadda yadda yadda" I have never had this happen in the past. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    T4,
    Then the pods that you have seem not to electrically match with your Mac, as the others that you tried seemed ok, am I right in this understanding?
    On the iPhone it has a very unique plug configuration that seems to set specifically for the iPhone, because it is a 4 conductor connector (one is for the microphone) that may make other pods not work properly. (yes this is an Apple thing, AAAAARRRRGGGG!!!!)
    But that would then confirm that there is not anything wrong with your Mac, as those Apple pods are for the iPhone, I guess both good and bad news.
    I don't use my iPhone to listen to music, nor do I use pods either, unless the artist I am working with is, then I use the same make and model so I can "hear what they hear".
    I do pro audio for a living and I can understand this "crosstalk issue with the 4th connector"
    But without getting too technical,  it would seem your Mac is just fine, which is a good thing.
    I would think that the newer Macs will be more compatible with the Apple iPhone pods, but they all seem to have their issues with the switching system...for years now!
    Hope this helps you understand this "FRUIT FLY"
    My suggestion is to use "regular headphones/ear pods with your Mac and the Apple iPhone pods with the phone. )I only have ever used the iPhone pods with the iPhone when I'm driving, and with only the iPhone. I have much better sounding pods/phones that I use to "ACTUALLY' listen to music with....and it a'int MP3/4
    Peace SJP

  • Error message when logging into itunes store

    keep getting the error message
    "itunes could not connect to the itunes store."
    "make sure your network connection is active and try again"
    this has been going on for a while now and i have checked my apple account which has the same email as this and it works perfect... shows model and serial numbers etc.....
    im trying to log in to change the email address being that i have gotten away from yahoo. any ideas?

    I have an IPod Touch and have also been receiving the message "Cannot connect to the iTunes store" when attempting to update my apps. Strange since I can still purchase/download new apps, as well as music. I spoke to customer support, and they suggested a reset, which i did - still getting the same error.

  • Error message when plugging in ipod

    I have two ipods, ipod touch 2nd gen and ipod nano 6th gen. both get the same error message when plugged into itunes that says that it detects the ipod but cannot connect to it because there is an ID error.  I've gone through all the steps to ID the ipod, even reformatted the ipod nano and still am not getting anywhere.  I've followed some of the steps from some of the other community questions with no results. If someone knows any other suggestions I'm open.  It worked fine until the recent iTunes update. Is it their way of forcing you to get the newer products?

    Hi erinstab,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I'd recommend starting with these steps if your iPod nano is not recognized correctly by iTunes or your PC:
    Plug the device directly into a high-power USB 2.0 port on the computer. If possible, use a USB port on the back of the computer.
    Avoid plugging the device into a keyboard, display, or standalone hub. The USB ports on these accessories may be low-power or only offer USB 1.x connections.
    If you are using an accessory, remove the accessory and connect the device to the computer using only the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or Lightning to USB Cable.
    If you have access to additional Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or Lightning to USB Cables, try testing with another if the first one doesn't work.
    Restart your computer and device. To restart your device:
    Hold the power button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.
    Disconnect all USB devices from your computer, except for your keyboard and mouse. Then reconnect the iOS device. If the issue is resolved, reconnect other USB devices, testing after each connection.
    Another article describes what to do if you are using Windows and see an unknown error containing "0xE" when connecting your device.

  • TS1503 My iPhone 4 says that there is not enough memory to download apps like Facebook and Instagram. When plugged into iTunes it says that 4GB is filled with "other". How do I clear the "other"?  What is this?

    My iPhone 4 says that there is not enough memory to download apps like Facebook and Instagram. When plugged into iTunes it says that >4GB is filled with "other". How do I clear the "other"?  What is this?

    Other is usually around 1 GB...
    A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
    First Try a Restore from Backup... But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup... Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

  • Error message when connecting to iTunes says my new iPad 4 can't be connected as it requires version 10.7 or later. Surely a new iPad already has the latest version, and if it doesn't how do I get it?

    Not the iPad - your computer must be running iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. It has nothing to do with iTunes on the iPad.
    You can download iTunes for your computer here.

  • Why can't I download apps from App store? I get error message to log into Itunes but when I do I have no idea what to do!?

    I'm stuck. Can't download any apps. Error message directs me to iTunes. No idea what to do when I get to iTunes. Still can't download anything. Dead in the water.

    If you are trying to download apps over 20MB in size, you can't do it via 3G. You can download them via WiFi.
    When you go to iTunes on your computer, from the menu at the top - go to Store>Check for available downloads.

  • I'm trying to update iphone 4s to 5.1 but when plugged into Itunes it says network connection cannot be established and error downloading 5.1

    I'm having trouble updating software for my iphone 4s from 5.0.1 to 5.1 but each time i plug into itunes to download it says network connection cannot be established and the phone just says an error has occured.  What can i do?

    If you don't have iOS 5, plug your iPhone into your computer, select it in iTunes, and in the Summary, click Check for Update.
    If you do have iOS 5, it has onboard updates so you don't have to plug it in, just go to Settings, click General, click Software Update and you will be presented with iOS 5.1 which came out a few hours ago. Both my iPhone 3GS and iPad are already updated to iOS 5.1 now.
