Having issues with iTunes sync to iPod (5th gen)

Ok this is something that is getting rather annoying.
Every once in a while. When sync anything to my iPod from iTunes. Sometimes iTunes will hang up. Then sync icon on my iPod does show up and spinning.
However nothing gets sync to the iPod. I then have to close out iTunes. Then restart iTunes. And everything seems to work for a while.
I to have the current version of iTunes (11.0.4.4.)
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I do have the 64-bit version of iTunes installed.
I have tried to restart my iPod several times. I don't think that this should have to be done all the time one of the other is not sync. Besides. It don't resolve the issue.
The iPod has a fully charged battery.
I have tried different USB ports. Same issue still exists.
I tired to restart my computer when the issues happens. Again it still happens.
I have completely uninstall iTunes and then reinstall iTunes back. Nothing has changed.
I have shut down all 3rd party software. Sync issues still happen.
I have tied on different computers I have in the house. The issues does happen. Not as often.
So there it is. I hope someone can shed some light on this issue.

HT1351 I have tried numerous times to resolve an issue with my wife's iPod (5th gen#. When I connect to iTunes I get a pop up error message that goes like this - The iPod "Linda's iOod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured #13019)...What do I do?

I have had very much trouble adding music to my wife's iPod. Every time I connect to iTunes, I get an error message that reads ...The iPod "Linda's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (13019)...I have tried diagnostics, help and what ever iTunes has to offer and cannot fix the issue. I want to add a new playlist with new music. When I connect her iPod, the playlist shows up on her device. When I disconnect, I can not find it in order to play it. Help me.

Some other posts seem to indicate that the cause is related to voice memos. You may want to try the remedy described in this document

Having issues with iTunes syncing to iPhone 5...

Both are up to date, iPhone has 7.0.4 and iTunes 11.1.3. Not all of my songs will sync onto my phone, only 63 out of about 500. Anyone else having this issue? Or solved it? Ahhhhh so frustrating!!! I've tried
-Turning off my find iPhone
-Selecting playlists instead of syncing all songs, all songs on playlist still don't show up
-Restarting phone
-Restarting my Mac
-And doing these in about every order you can think of for the past 3 hours
Help!

So I had the same problem with what you are having except I have an Iphone 4S but heres what i did to resolve.
1) Check the box for manually manage your music
2) Uncheck all songs you want.
3) Sync
4) Check all songs you want, after the 1st sync
5) Sync again but this time with all the music you want checked
6) Now your inforamtion bar for the GB reading will be weird, dont worry about it. After the sync check all songs on your phone. All should be playable.
Hope it helps!

Having issues with iTunes 11.1.5 on Windows 8.1

Ever since I've refreshed my windows computer two weeks ago. I am having issues with iTunes 11.1.5. For some reason I can access the iTunes Store, but most of the time when I do something internet related on iTunes, the app is either stuck on checking for downloads or when trying to sign in. I am trying to update all my apps but only a couple out of 30 actually start downloading but they keep getting stuck at "processing file". I have used another computer with Windows 8.1 with the same version of iTunes and its downloading app updates fine.

it works at first then after trying to update a few apps (the third one this time) iTunes again stops working and gives me the 8008 error.
Okay ... let's try seeing if that one is the root cause of the errors.
Try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
Does that calm down the 8008s?

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.

I was having issues with my 80G Video iPod and had to restore it, but now it seems all of my music on it previously is "corrupt" . How did all my songs get corrupted and how do I fix them?

I was having issues with syncing my 80G video iPod, so I restored it, and now all my songs in my library are "corrupted" and I can't get them back on my iPod. I keep getting error(-69). How did my songs all get corrupted, and how do I fix this without having to purchase these songs all over again?

Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

You can also re-download content using an iOS device.

This if course will not apply to songs you did not buy through the iTunes Store.

Having Issues with iTunes 10.5.3 and uninstalled. Cannot reinstall without upgrading to newest Snow Leopard? Using MacBook Pro running 10.5.8.

Running OS X Leopard 10.5.8 and was having issues with my version of iTunes 10.5.3 (freezing and getting rainbow spinny wheel, not allowing me to do anything, while importing music from a different folder into the iTunes). Anyway, so I uninstalled iTunes and went to download the newest version (10.7 i believe) and after downloading and attempting to install, i was alerted that I cannot install and run this application without having the newest version of OS X 10.6 i believe. So, what I'm ultimately trying to figure out is if I need to spend $130(that i do not have) on Amazon to get the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 then pay another $20 in the App Store to upgrade to Mountain Lion as well? I need to have iTunes on this laptop due to having an iPhone 4 that needs to be able to be synced on this computer. Bottom Line is, I don't have really have $150 to upgrade all this at the current moment just to get iTunes back on my system. Any suggestions or am I basically having to drop the $150 just to get iTunes back so I can sync my iPhone 4 again? Ugh, this *****, really wish i hadn't uninstalled that version of iTunes..HELP!!! thanks in advance..

Click here and install the software. If you decide to upgrade to 10.6 at some future point, phone the online Apple Store.

Having issues with itunes not syncing correctly

ive been running into issues of itunes not wanting to sync my movies.When i try to sync movies, all of my music i imported from cds or files that were not purchased off of itunes gets deleted off of my phone.Im running itunes 12,and ios 8 on my 5s.Been happening alot recently and its frustrating!!!!! Ive tried managing my music and movies and that doesnt help out at all.Im having to download movies from icloud from my phone which at times is hard due to the lack of reliable wifi.Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated

as rediculous as this is, I enabled "all mail" under the labels, then went into the actual apple mail settings and checked some box about updateing immediately (for deleted items) . then I had to quit mail then open it back up - it "appears" to have synced properly. I'll let you know if it all comes back, but this is really a pain in the butt, I swapped from Entourage a few months back because it started acting weird with gmail.
anyone have any other mail options if this continues to not work? I don't want to have to pull gmail in my browser to move read items each day.
thanks for all the help.

Having issues with iTunes.

Well, I'm having issues uploading existing music from my iPhone 4s to my iTunes library. Once I hit sync, it tells me I have to erase and then sync. I don't understand and I've been trying everything to get around it.
Side note-my mac did crash and had to take it in and they backed it up for me, so when I got my mac back it was like brand new. I don't know if this makes a difference. Thanks to anyone who can help me.

Since they replaced your hard drive, your phone thinks that it's connecting to a new computer. You said you have everything backed up, I would copy and paste the backed up iTunes folder (in the Music folder) into the Music folder. Open iTunes and it should be fine. The iTunes Library.xml file (a file in the iTunes folder) is different, which is what's causing your phone to think it's syncing to a new computer.

Several issues with iTunes syncing

Okay so I have an iPhone 4s 32GB iOS 6.1.2. an recently purchased a new windows 8 laptop that has iTunes 11 on it. I find several issues and have not been able to resolve so hopefully someone will have some suggestions.
1. iCloud will not back up contacts
2. iTunes will only show 11 of my 200+ purchased songs
3. iTunes sync over wifi shows my old laptop (which I removed before syncing with new computer) but will not show the new laptop.
4. After I purchased about 5 new songs and a few apps I attempted to sync with iTunes on the new laptop and while all my songs and apps from my last sync are there I cannot get the new items to sync back to iTunes no matter what I do.
I have turned off iCloud and backed up to iTunes via USB but still nothing is working. I have seen lots of other forum posts here and all over the web but none of the problems or solutions seem to fit my situation exactly. I am hesitant to reset the phone because I dont want to loose my contacts or the new content I have purchased. Any help would be awesome.

UPDATE. I did a reset and it did remove the old computer from my Wifi Sync screen but now my personal hotspot option is gone, I cannot connect to wifi at all and I still cannot get the phone to sync to iTunes.

My PC is freezing everytime I wanna sync my iPod 5th Gen

Hallo, everytime i wanna sync my iPod with the iTunes Bibliothek my PC is freezing. I'dont no why and 2 weeks ago it worked without any problems?
please could anybody help me?

ati3duag.dll
that's the second time i've seen that dll referenced here in a blue screen in a week. that file is associated with ATI video card drivers.
try running through the troubleshooting steps i was suggesting to Bahama Boy in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=2957231
but let's also enlist some additional technical help. let's capture a minidump of the crash and send it to someone who can interpret minidumps.
To set up your machine to capture a minidump, right click on "My Computer", select "Properties", select the "Advanced" tab, select the "Startup and Recovery" Settings button, select "small memory dump" from the popup. When it crashes, look for the MiniDump file. It's usually in the folder "C:\WINDOWS\Minidump" and is called something like Mini<number>-<number>.dmp.
collect the minidump, and send it to this email address
in the email, include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.
