Having trouble syncing ipod 3rd gen from itunes

I have had my ipod for 6 months and all of a sudden I can not sync it with itunes. At first it said it was corrupted so I brought it in and they replaced it, but now after being able to sync 1/2 of my audiobook it will not sync anymore and says "the required disk cannot be found" what does this mean?
Please help!!!!!!!

worked great for me (well it's still syncing right now but I'm hopeful)
I still get the message, but it's also syncing

  • I am having trouble downloading a purchased movie from ITunes Help

    I am having trouble downloading a purchased movie from I tunes It keeps telling me there is an error and to tap and try again but all fails Help

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • HT1351 Am having problems syncing iPod classic 160gb to iTunes within Windows 8. Can you help?

    I bought my iPod Classic 160GB from new in April 2012.  For several months, I ran it through an older HP laptop running Windows XP home edition (service pack 3 I think?).  I did however, use a Toshiba external hard drive to store all CDs/podcasts/photos etc.  All worked very well and I put a fair amount of music (via CDs and podcasts) on the iPod via iTunes.  All worked successfully.  I changed computer earlier this year - another HP laptop but now running Windows 8.  I've downloaded the up to date edition of iTunes AND have also transferred all existing material/files from the same Toshiba external hard drive to the iTunes in my new computer.  (think I did this correctly?)  So far, so good.  I have placed some more music on the external hard drive and into iTunes and wanted to sync with my iPod.  I connect iPod to the computer.  It's recognised in iTunes as the window comes up showing iPod's serial number and settings etc etc.  The iPod screen shows 'sync' and the top of screen in iTunes also shows 'syncing' however, after a few seconds, this stops and the iPod screen shows 'OK to disconnect' without having transferred any of the new music onto the iPod.  Although all the existing music remains on the iPod (the stuff that was there before), the copule of new CDs hasn't been transferred over.  Can anyone help me solve this problem?  I hear that there are some problems at the moment syncing iPods within Windows 8.  Anybody else had this problem?  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Hello hindzee,
    The acticle below goes over how to sync content to iPod Classics. The section titled "Syncing automatically" will most likely be the most helpful protion of that article for you.

  • Having trouble syncing new shuffle with my itunes

    This is getting really annoying, it keeps doing the autofill. I use it only to workout with, so I made a workout mix. On my 4th gen I have no problem setting it to only update certain playlists but I can't seem to do that with my shuffle. Is there anyway I can get it to stop doing autofill and just sync my workout list?

    YES.
    Look carefully to the right of the Autofill button... it says "Autofill from:" with a button that's labeled Music but also has arrows (up/down) which if clicked on gives you a list of all playlists in the sources panel...

  • TS1369 i am suddenly having trouble syncing ipod.

    I cannot sync my ipod nano (4th or 5th generation) recently. Is it because i recently purchased an iphone and now it is the main device on my itunes?

    Hi, MIKE1JK.
    I am unsure what you mean by your iPhone being the main device in iTunes and that you can not sync your iPod nano. 
    If the device is not recognized by iTunes then see the article below.  Make sure to process these steps with only the iPod nano is connected to the computer.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If you mean that you can not see the device in iTunes, it could possibly be the change in the interface of iTunes 11.  To enable the classic view you will need to press Control-S for the Sidebar and Control-B for the menu bar.
    If you receive any errors in regard to syncing your iPod nano please reply with the error message received. 
    Cheers,

  • SYNC\iPOD 3rd Gen to/through-windows-7

    Ok-computer on ipod connected-go to control panel/security sys/firewall--OFF--now download itunes (win-7,64)verify now that you have the (apple mobile device driver)upon verification,turn your firewall back on,you now can create a short-cut/file location,the essential element here is the (apple mobile device driver)the process is allowing this driver on/in your computer..[email protected]..

    Because it works with the other PCs, you've ruled out a problem on the shuffle itself and a problem with the USB cable.  So that leaves some issue on the PC with Windows 7.  I don't think 64-bit versus 32-bit is a consideration.
    As a test, if you have not already, I would shut down and disconnect all other USB devices from the computer (except for standard keyboard and mouse if used).  Do this to Reset the shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Start up computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle to a direct USB port on computer.
    If the shuffle is still not recognized by iTunes, also check other places, such as Device Manager, to see if it appears anywhere.

  • TS1363 having trouble syncing new 7th Gen nano to existing account

    Trying to sync new nano to itunes library?

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62 and Windows 8.1.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.

  • HT1386 Having trouble syncing my ipad mini with iTunes

    When I sync my ipad mini with my iTunes it appears the process is happening, the line indicating music is present on the ipad appears. But when the syncing is done the line disappears and no music has been loaded to the ipad.

    Are you signed into the correct iD on the iPad in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID?
    Do you have Sync only  checked songs and videos selected in the Summary Tab of iTunes? If you do, are you selecting the music to sync? If you don't have that checked, have you selected the music to sync? Are you trying to sync the entire library?

  • Help with ipod 3rd gen and itunes

    I want to remove the music from i tunes but when I do that it gets removed from the i-pod. The reason I want to remove it is because my computer is very very slow and when I add music it gets slower. So is it possible to remove the music from the i tunes list and it doesn't get removed from my i-pod? Thanks!

    my advice would be, get rid of itunes cause it slows down your computer alot, and use another program like winamp or media monkey. where do you get your music from?

  • Is anyone else having trouble syncing their text shortcuts from Mavericks to iOS 7?

    Text shortcuts created in Mavericks aren't syncing to iPhone/iPad, but syncing is working the other way around (i.e., shortcuts created on the iPad are syncing to iPhone and Mavericks).

  • I recently purchased a new macbook and am having trouble syncing my iPhone with the iTunes. It won't allow me to delete any of the music on my phone, so I am unable to make room for the new software upgrade. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does anyone know how to enable editing on a new computer? I only have an 8gb phone and over 4gbs of music, half of which I don't even listen to anymore. I really want it off my phone, but when I plugged it into my new macbook nothing would delete. My old computer barely turns on so I can't even plug it into the old one to delete anything. I hit the sync button on the new computer and that didn't help either. I'd really like to upgrade to the new software but don't have the room on my phone until this music/a few apps are deleted. Any help would be appreciated!!

    Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing.  The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as).  The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue).  However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens.  It will not change to highlight that user.
