Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. 64 gig. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..I use windows XP but don't believe this is an issue since i have read posts saying this is not the problem..right now am converting my higher bit rate music to see if that changes anything. I also turned off my unit and the next thing am going to do is a restore if this doesn't work. Anyone find a fix for this yet? I also see that this is not a unique problem to Gen 2 units and is occuring on newer units as well..thank you all for any advise...

- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings      
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up                                                                
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Can i not have Icloud if i have ipod touch 2nd gen? Can i do anything to update generation?

    Can i not have Icloud if i have ipod touch 2nd gen? Can i do anything to update generation?

    Nope, you're done.  To get  iCloud you need at least a 3rd generation Touch.  And, you CANNOT upgrade your 2nd Gen to make it a 3rd Gen..

  • HT1567 I have the volume control symbol in the center of my iPad all of the time.  My music will not play and the volume remains off.  When I try to increase the volume manually it statics and will not maintain a volume level.  Thanks

    Try resetting the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons until the Apple Logo appears on the screen. Ignore the red slider if it shows up. You will lose no data.

  • Resolution Steps:  iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch library corrupted and showing ghost entries which will not play or music that is on the device in iTunes but inaccessible.

    Issue:  iOS Music application either has items listed in the library that will not play; or has an empty library but iTunes reports that music is present on the device and taking up space; or a combination of these issues coupled with the inability to resolve the problem through the standard resolution steps of disabling music syncing to remove all music and then re-enabling or by enabling "manually manage library" and removing the items.
    Additionally, attempting to restore from a back-up does not resolve the issue and the default response from the Apple Support Community is to factory restore the device and treat as new device, resulting in loss of all settings and basically starting from scratch.
    Cause of issue:  Corrupted iOS device iTunes library (MediaLibrary.sqlitedb).  This database stores the iTunes Media records and related information such as playcount, lyrics etc.  It does not store information and settings regarding iOS Applications as far as I am aware so this should be safe.
    Resolution Steps:
    Perform a back-up to your local computer rather than iCloud if practical.  This will be quicker in the event of issues.
    Download a iOS device manager such as Phone View (http://www.ecamm.com/mac/phoneview/) which will allow you to directly access the file structure of the device.  (This will NOT require an illegal jailbreak to be performed!)
    Enable the Advanced View mode so the entire disk structure is accessible.
    Browse to the following file:  iTunes_Control/iTunes/MediaLibrary.sqlitedb
    Rename MediaLibrary.sqlitedb to MediaLibrary.sqlitedb-backup or similar
    Hold down POWER and HOME on your iOS device until the Apple logo appears.  Release both buttons.
    When device has rebooted, connect to iTunes and synchronise it.
    iTunes will detect that the Media Library on the device is missing and recreate it based on the items that it has listed in the iTunes synchronisation record for the device.

    I don't have a large library of music on my iPhone 4s since I've only had it since Oct 2012, but since the update to iTunes 11 in early December, my album artwork has been all messed up.  Everytime I would try to add new music, it would assign the wrong album artwork to anything new coming in.  And in addition to that, it would also mess up album artwork of music already on my phone.  Everything looked correct in iTunes, but on my phone, not so much.  After trying to unsynch, then synching again, my frustration level was at an all-time high. This problem seems to be everywhere online, but no concrete solution for everyone. 
    I finally came across your simple solution (at least for me because of my small inventory of music) of just deleting all the music through the settings, and then re-synching to add back my music.  Now all of the album artwork is correct again.  I'm almost afraid to add new music for fear the artwork will get mixed up all over again! I still think my issue is somehow connected to the iTunes 11 update because up until then I had no issues whatsoever. Anyway, thanks for an easy solution that worked for me.

  • IPod Touch 5th Gen shut down by itself, and will not turn back on?

    I was just on the YouTube app when suddenly my iPod shut itself down, and the battery was well over 50%.
    It will not turn back on, and when I plug it into the charger, nothing changes. Any suggestions?

    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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • TS2771 my ipod touch 4th gen is connected to wifi and will not open the app store or any of my social media apps i am logged in to itunes so i have no idea why its not letting me use app store itunes or any social media

    My Ipod Touch 4th Generation is connected to wi-fi and will not open the app store.  Says it cannot connect to iTunes Store.  I can get on the internet but for some reason it won't connect to the app store or the Software Updates.

    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    For the socal sites, are y using a home network?
    Did it work before?
    Some work networks block sits like social sites.

  • My Ipod touch 4th gen shows up under devices but will not let me sync to it.

    I am using windows XP with the newest updates.  I have itunes 10.5 currently installed on the computer.  My ipod does not have the newest ios software on it.  When I plug my Ipod up, it opens itunes and loads it under devices correctly.  Since i don't currently have an internet connection the itunes store tries to open and I close the box out, which it gives me an error that "the itnunes store could not be connected, check cable connections and try again".  A white screen is visibile with the word "Ipod" in the middle on the right side.  My Ipod at this point is still visible under devices, but can not sync to it; under file the sync to ipod command is grayed out, unable to be clicked on.  The ipod connect and synced perfect with itunes 9 before upgrade to 10.5.  Any suggestions to fix this problem would be great.

    Figured the problem out.  I had to be hooked up to the internet the first time that I hooked my Ipod touch up so that I could register it through the Itunes store.  Since I got the newest Itunes 10.5, it requires that I register the Apple product first.  Now with the internet unplugged I can plug my Ipod touch into the computer and sync it up like I normally do.

  • IPod touch 4th gen stuck in connect/disconnect loop, will not charge on desktop PC, but is recognized fine by older laptop?

    I have an iPod 4th gen that up until the week before was connecting and charging fine on my desktop computer (running Windows 7(64-bit)).  Now, when connected to the USB ports on my desktop, it goes into this rapid and unending connect/disconnect loop, never staying connected long enough to even be recognized by the computer.  There is an error message that also says that charging is not supported by the computer, when before, things were fine.  Despite all the problems on the desktop, the iPod is recognized fine by my 5 year old laptop, which is running a simplified version Windows XP.  Halp.  I've tried everything on the iPod support pages regarding this issue, and would really like to avoid calling Apple about this.  Any suggestions?

    Try putting it is DFU mode:

  • TS3899 My ipood touch works fine when at home and on my own wi-fi network but when abroad and using wi-fi I can only receive emails but my ipod touch won't send my messages.  I am not very techy but don't know how to resolve this problem.  Any advice?

    Hi
    I am having problems sending emails when using my ipod touch with wi-fi abroad.  When at home my ipod touch receives and I can send emails through my home wi-fi system but when away and logged into other wi-fi networkcan only receive emails and not send them.  Internet access is fine when abroad.
    I am assuming that this is to do with the outgoing server but this is only a guess!
    I am not very techy so any ideas how to resolve this problem would be gratefully received.
    Thanks
    KeithGH

    Seems like the other networks are blocking you from sending emails.
    Do yo have more that one email account on the iPod?
    Have you tried sending from another account?

  • HT4623 In the general settings on my ipod touch 2nd gen, I do not have an updates choice. Anybody know anything about this?

    In the general settings on my ipod touch 2nd gen, I do not have an update choice. Anyone know anything about this?

    An iPod Touch at iOS 3.1.3 and that iTunes states is up to date must be a 1st generation Touch, not 2nd.
    See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353#iPod_touch_2nd_generation  and notice the diffference between the 1st and 2nd gen models.
