Error with iTunes Account and iPod Touch

A few weeks ago, I tried to download an app, and after typing in my password, nothing happened, so i returned to the App Store, and downloaded it again. Suddenly, every app I had ever downloaded on my iPod appeared on the iPod's screen, and began to install one by one. After a day of waiting for it to finish, I deleted them all. Then, a window popped up asking me for my password, which I clicked "cancel" to. Then, it downloaded every app again. After a few days, it would download three or so apps at a time, and sometimes would reload (meaning, it took an app I already had installed, and downloaded it again, removing the original icon). Now, it will only sometimes reload an app. However, the window asking for my password constantly pops up, and no matter how many times I enter my password or click cancel, it won't stop happening. (These pop ups occur about 10-15 minutes apart). I've tried restoring the ipod and logging out of the account, but nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?

Itune account and iPod Touch Autherisation

The iTune in my computer autherised to sync with my iPod Touch & iPad.
I have downloaded Apps for my Ipod Touch & iPad in my iTune account to this autherised computer.
Lately my computer HDD in RAID 0 Stripe having problem in one of the Striped HDD. To cut the long story short, I would need to put in two new HDD in my computer.
Do I first need to go into my iTune account in my failing computer & "De-Autherise" this computer prior to change my HDD so that I will still retain "Rights" to autherise for three other computers for my iPod Touch & iPad?
Do I have to redown load all my bought Apps once the new HDD is installed in my computer? If so That will eat into my monthly download limit with the ISP!!.
Could I avoid this ? This brings to another question If I back up ,How could I selectively reach this download in my computer HD that I could selectively get back to my new HDD that will have the iTune? [I remember last year some one telling as to how to reach the hidden folder in iTune where these downloads are preserved]
Regards

Thak you Illaass for that.
Normally a device is allowed to be Autherized in three computers as I understand. Correct me if I am wrong.
Now the computer that I have autherized is to have new HDD [say if I have two other computer also autherised for these devices + the one I intend changing the HDD = 3 computers].
My question :Would I still able to Autherize my computer for the itune account where I had put in my new HDD?
[My understanding is that when new HDD put in the identity of the computer is changed and the iTume would recognise is as a new computer-Am I correct in my assumption] That is why I wish to learn if I need to Deautherize my computer prior to change the new HDD? [Computer may still bootable I hope!! That another issue]
Regards
PS: If 5 computers could be Autherized then I should not worry I suppose.[I am wrong in assuming that only 3 are allowed to autherized?!!]

Problems with itunes 8 and ipod shuffle gen 2.

Problems with itunes 8 and ipod shuffle gen 2.
I recently upgraded from itunes 7 to itunes 8 on my windows XP PC. That's when i had issues syncing my 2nd gen shuffle.
When i try to drag songs directly on it, itunes says i can't
I made a playlist and use auto fill. But when I remove it from the dock, it's either not updated, or the new songs are at the bottom of the playlist when they are supposed to be up higher. I end up having to hit auto fill twice to make it sync correctly.
Computer Specs
Windows XP SP3
384MB of Ram (works really good)
USB 1.1 connection
Pentium 4 clocked at 1.285 GHZ
IPOD Shuffle Specs
2nd Generation
1GB (964MB)
Version 1.0.4
unchecked options: open itunes when ipod is attached, Sync only checked songs, convert higher bit rate songs to 128kbps AAC, Enable sound check, Limit MAX volume, enable disk use
All those are NOT checked. Sometimes i enable disk use for seeing the IPOD_Control folder, but either way it still messes up.
Itunes Specs:
Version 8.1.1.10

This is a well-known issue. Apple changed the internal file names used with iTunes 8, which makes the ordering on 2nd generation Shuffles behave differently. There is no good workaround, apart from moving the files with a hand-crafted AppleScript program.
Apple has been silent on the issue, so nobody knows if we'll ever have a fix for it or not.

Itunes 10 and ipod touch 2g not syncing

Hi,
Upgraded to iTunes 10.0.1 and Ipod Touch 2g OS4.1 and now my Ipod won't sync with my MacBook Pro. It gets a few stages through and either hangs at the backup stage or the calendar/contacts sync.
I tried a full Ipod erase and restore, even as a new iPod - didn't work
Any other ideas. Anyone else suffering this?
Thanks!

I am having the same issue. I have an iPhone 4 with the most recent software...it was fine when I synced it yesterday (on my Macbook Pro). Today I updated my iTunes, plugged in my phone, and I got nothing. It's charging...it just won't recognize my phone. Weird, huh?
I haven't tried to restore it yet though. I can't stand losing text messages sent between backups...so I'm hoping I can wait this out and not lose those messages...

Windows 7 iTunes 9 and Ipod touch Second Gen

I have upgraded my computer to Windows 7 and now to iTunes 9. When I attempt to sync my iPod, it begins the process, which will last for about 1 minute. Then it freezes and reports back the the iPod is no longer connected. I also witnessed that one of my four cores on my CPU becomes locked at 100%, my sound becomes very cracked and the only way to resolve the issue is to reboot. I can honestly say that I did not try to sync my iPod since I upgraded to Windows 7.
I uninstalled iTunes multiple times and reinstalled and still had the same error. I have also tried unplugging my iPod and replugging it back into the system and I got another error that it could not detect my iPod, yet Windows did find it as a device. I have reset my iPod as well just to be safe. Any idea's or is this just going to be a Windows 7 related issue and I will be sans iPod till they actually test and fix this in the future?

I have been having the same troubles as you with itunes 9 and windows 7 with a 16gb 3g iphone. I did a full wipe restore then upgrade to 3.1.2 as I do with every update. Now I just recently began using windows 7 and it seems broken as I was only once able to get some songs to sync. I have actually wiped out windows and reinstalled and started over and still the same.

One iTunes account - two iPod Touch...

Here's my problem:
My sons have an iPod Touch each. Occasionally I let them buy apps for their iPods from the Appstore, using my iTunes account. So they each have different apps on their iPods. Now every time I connect one of their iPods to my Mac to update the iPod OS or add pics or music, it also syncs all the apps. This means both of them get all the apps the other one has bought or downloaded. This fills up their iPods and there is no more free space on their iPods. When I unselect the Sync Apps in iTunes it warns me that all existing apps on the connected iPod will be removed.
What can I do??? I basically want iTunes to stop syncing apps, but I don't want my sons to loose all the apps they have on their iPods. Anyone, please?

Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes that the user controls. The same apps can be installed on both devices or different apps on each device, which is selected under the Apps tab for each device.
First disable automatic syncing when each iPod is connected. Under the Apps tab for the first device, deselect automatically sync new apps. Deselect the apps that you don't want installed on the device. Select Apply followed by a sync.
Repeat for the 2nd device.

Slew of Problems with iTunes--Bonjour Service, Ipod Touch Recognition, iTunes Store Connectivity

As per the title, the problems are getting quite serious and annoying.
I have an issue with the Bonjour service not being recognized (mDNSresponder.exe doesn't appear to be running) and consequently sharing not working, an inability to connect to the iTunes store (as shown in the above diagnostic report), and an inability for iTunes or my laptop to recognize the iPod Touch. On any other PC here, it's perfectly fine.

As you can see, there are many problems here. Quicktime is apprently unavailable, when it's installed. iTunes doesn't recognize me as an administrator, when the account is indeed an admin (and can perform administrative actions).
Connection to the iTunes store is unsuccessful, when iTunes is enabled in the windows firewall. All the services iTunes needs to run, are running successfully. The sole exception being Bonjour, which iTunes doesn't seem to realize is running. I've verified the service to be running, and have restarted it. Additionally, mDNSresponder.exe is not running under task manager. Manually starting it from Bonjour's file directory doesn't work, either. I've changed my "hosts" file, and still no luck. I've also changed a couple of Internet Explorer internet properties, and the unsuccessful connectivity doesn't change. I've reinstalled the whole line of Apple software, without a change in results. Reboots are just as unsuccessful.
Ultimately, my problem is neither iTunes nor Windows recognizes my iPod Touch, whereas my old Nano used to work fine. On other computers, iTunes is fine. The problem is on this one, and whether it's an Apple or Windows problem, I don't know. Hopefully someone here can help me out, as I would be immensely appreciative.

One step forward?
I'd like to doublecheck something you mentioned earlier:
I've verified the service to be running, and have restarted it. Additionally, mDNSresponder.exe is not running under task manager.
When you were in the processes tab, did you have "Show processes from all users" checked, as per the following screenshot? (mDNSresponder.exe runs under SYSTEM, so you don't see it in there unless that box is checked.)

Changing Itunes ID on itun's and ipod touch

I recently changed my email and tried to change my itunes ID because my email changed. Itunes has accepted the change and i can log in with my new id and password.

I have tried to reseting my ipod touch, but it keeps coming up with my old email.

Music from old itunes account on ipod touch

I used to have an iphone and had my itunes account on it, where I made many purchases. I got rid of my iphone and didn't use my account for about 1-2 years. Now I have an ipod touch and have logged into my account but can not get my music. When I go on my laptop with my account I can see my purchase history, but it won't let me hear my music. Is there any way to get my purchases if I did not record it?

I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
What is the way to actually contact Apple?
I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . .

Problems with iPhone 3G and iPod Touch with Car Stereos

There are three cars in our family, and every car as a stereo with built-in iPod interfaces. Car 1 has a Pioneer system, Car 2 has a Kenwood, and my car has an Alpine system. I can't hear any audio when I connect an iPod touch or iPhone 3G to the Kenwood and Pioneer systems. They can perform functions on the iPhone/iPod touch, such as change songs, randomize songs, repeat songs, etc, however, there is no audio. 80% of the time the Alpine does the same thing; 10% of the time an error is displayed on the head unit; and 10% the iPod Touch/iPhone works perfectly.
All three systems can operate my iPod Nano correctly without any problems at all. Because the same problem occurs to all the stereos and because the iPod Touch and iPhone are basically the same minus phone capabilities, I am beginning to believe that the problem is with them and not the stereo systems. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how can I fix it if it is fixable?

Which Touch (first or second generation) and which iPhone (2G or 3G)?
And what generation Nano are you testing with.
Your auto systems may not be compatible with the newer generation model iPods/Phones.

Error with itunes updating my ipod

Ok ive never had this issue before, but im trying to update my ipod and its gone horribly wrong.
The other day i charged my ipod on a friends computer and it synced up with it which was rather annoying. So ive tried to sync it back with mine and all was going well until it came up with the following error message.
'Attempting to copy to the disk 'xxx' failed. An unknown error occured (-69).'
Does that message bear any significance? What can i do to fix the problem?
please help if you can!

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.

Switching iTunes Account on iPod Touch

The iTunes account currently set on my iPod Touch is my fiance's, but I need to switch to my own. The manual says you can sign in to a different account after opening ITunes Wi-Fi, but when I open it, it doesn't give me an option to sign in, nor does it allow me to view any account info. The only options I have are to view iTunes features, top ten, to search, and view downloads. Help? Anyone?

Try changing the account in iTunes and syncing.
I did it once, and I think that's how I did it.

ITunes account on iPod Touch

Hello to all,
I bought an iPod Touch to my 12-year-old daughter.
So far, I've put my iTunes account on it, so that she gets back apps & games.
But the dark side of it is that she cannot use FaceTime or iMessage, because they are "mine".
If I create a account just for her, will she loose all apps already installed on the device ?
Is there another possibility to allow her to use all iPod's functionnalities ?
Thanks,

You can continue to use the current AppleID just for purchased content. Then, create a new AppleID for her and use that one just for iMessage, Facetime and iCloud.
Since purchases are tied to the AppleID used, nothing will be change as far as the purchased content on her iPod.
