Every time i try and update my ipod touch 4th gen. it satrts to back it up and then more than an hour later it hasnt moved and their is no show of progress. my computer and itunes are up to date. please help.

Well, the problem isn't the back up because I already have a backup saved that I can restore from, I honestly don't know how, but I do, and it has all my apps. The problem is restoring it. I keep getting the "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPod "King". A duplicate file name was specified. With my 3G iPod touch, I did not have it named as "King". I had it as another name. I don't know if that helps, but as I said before, Backup-wise I'm okay for now. Restore-wise I'm not.
NOTE: Reinstalling iTunes doesn't help.

The add to button doesn't appear on itunes with my ipod touch 4th gen.

I cannot add any songs to my ipod touch 4th generation because an add to button does not appear on itunes in the "on my ipod" section. If i plug my sister's newer ipod in it works, it does not make sense. i have re installed itunes four times now. I don't know what else to do. This means i can no longer add any songs to my ipod from my computer the only way to get songs is by purchasing them from the itunes store. HELP. PLEASE. This has been occurring for a while now.

Hi katelyn6794!
You may want to try setting up your iPod to sync content manually using the information in this article:

Is it possible to read the description of videos that you can see in iTunes on your iPod Touch 4th Gen or 5th Gen?

I was wondering if it's at all possible to read the description of videos that you have on your iPod Touch 4th or 5th Generation. It's available on iTunes, but I was wondering if there was a way to see it on your actual device.
Any answer would be a great help! Thanks

You can omit the title altogether in the URL (together with the succeeding slash, of course). For example, my own podcast URL in the Store is
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-sound-of-78s/id166389425?mt=2
but this works perfectly well:
https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/id166389425
Indeed you can even put your own title:
https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/any_old_title/id166389425
So it's as simple as that!

HT1338 i have os x 10.4 and need 10.5 to upgrade itunes for an ipod touch 4th gen...can i purchase 10.5 from the apple store and can i upgrade from 10.4 to 10.5 without issues

i currently have os x 10.4 and per itunes, i need 10.5 to download the itunes version that supports the ipod touch 4th generation
can i purchase 10.5 on the apple store and is it safe to go from 10.4 directly to 10.5....what is the best procedure

You cannot get Leopard from Apple any more. You will find copies from third-party vendors on eBay, Amazon, or Google.
If you have an Intel Mac you can upgrade to Snow Leopard instead provided your model meets the requirements shown below:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and
           terms apply.

HT4437 using airplay from my ipod touch 4th gen. no audio output from the tv. on the ipod it shows that it is streaming to the apple tv. whats the problem

i get the air play icon on my ipod touch. when i click it the output from my ipod stops but i dont get any audio from my tv. whats the problem?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT1918 How do i change the phone number on my apple ID account so i can use messaging with my Ipod Touch 4th gen?

How do I change my phone number on my Apple ID account? Not the number for billing. I got a new Ipod touch and when I was setting it up my emails where correct but the phone number was wrong. The gentlemen at the Apple Store told me just to go on my account on my computer and change it but i cant find where. Only part i know how to change is the billing number. Thanks.

If you can remember them their current answers you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com , click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of your account's page
If you can't remember their answers and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

Using apple remote with ipod touch 4th gen

i've seen on the apple website that you can use the apple remote with the ipod 4th generation. how does it work? because isn't the apple remote an ir device? or does it work off bluetooth? some advice on how to use the apple remote would be great. thanks.

You also need Apple's Universal Dock. The description of the remote says:
Note: The Apple Remote requires the iPod Universal Dock and any iPod with a dock connector or any iPhone.,Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared (IR) receiver.

Every time I try to sync my iPod Touch, iTunes freezes?

Well, it's pretty self-explanatory. Every time I try to sync my iPod Touch (5th generation), iTunes freezes. It starts syncing for a few seconds, slows down, stops, then iTunes becomes unresponsive. If I don't force quit it, after a few minutes, iTunes is fine, but my device still hasn't synced. Any solutions/suggestions?

See if this helps: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4268912?start=0&tstart=0

I am having the same problem (lost in back-up purgatory) on both my iPhone 4 and my iPad2. I am running Windows XP.
I have tried everything I've seen suggested on various support communities, with no success.
I have gotten used to having to find a windows workaround everytime Apple updates iTunes, and this time it is especially frustrating.
I don't have any solutions, and I am responding to all of these types of messages in hopes of finding something that will work for me.
One person was able to work through it by deleting all of the previous iTunes backup files. I'm trying that now. 4 hours into it, and it does not seem to be working......
