Help! Did IOS5 upgrade on my iPod Touch and my music no longer plays...

It's visible, though it's only visible in a faded grey text now.  Can view all my albums correctly, but the songs are greyed out.  I've resynced repeatedly, and this does not resolve my problem.   Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the same issue, and I'm pretty mad. Maybe it was the update?

    Working on a single computer with multiple users, I have set things up to allow each user to view and listen to the others' music libraries under the "Shared Library" function.  Can you then connect an iPod touch and copy music from a shared library?

    Was your wife logged into the libray at the time you tried to log in? I have had a similar problem and it was because another user was logged into the library when I attempted to. I got the permission denied banner.

  • I did a backup on my iPod touch and it said it worked...but now it won't let me access anything and says "iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode.  You must restore this IPod before it can be used."  I will lose all my videos and pics if I do that

    I did a backup on my iPod touch last night and it said it worked...I wanted to make sure my 1100 pictures and videos, mostly of my son, were safe since we rarely use the iPod touch anymore since we bought an iPad...I can't find them or I have no idea how to access them...I do not have a MAC...I have an HP computer with windows...
    Now when I try to use my iTunes a message comes up that says my iPod is on recovery mode and has to do a restore to use my iTunes again...so when u click on that it states that pushing that button will restore my iPod touch to its factory settings...which means I will lose all my data...which I CANNOT do bc the videos of my son are some of his first words, first giggles, etc. 
    Now my iPod is stuck on a screen with a picture of a USB cord and an iTunes icon... and holding the power and push buttons down at the same time does nothing except bring up the apple icon for a moment and then it goes right back to the USB and iTunes icon
    When I called Apple they said in order to talk to tech support I had to pay a fee of 19 dollars...which I think is kind of crap...I paid over 300 dollars for this and all I want is somebody to help me access my pics...I have done nothing wrong...this iPod was never dropped and never broke...I did the backup like I was supposed to and now I have an IPod touch that does nothing, and if my library of pics and videos are on my computer, I have no clue where or how to view them or back them up onto DVD....
    I'm very upset and frustrated...please help!!!

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • I did a restore on my IPod touch and now all I get on the display is a picture of a USB and the Itunes logo

    I couldn't sync my Ipod touch, and kept getting an error message.  So, I did a restore.  Now my touch is stuck on a screen showing a white usb cable and the ITunes logo, which I assume is telling me to connect my Ipod to the computer.  But I did that (obviously) or I wouldn't have been able to do the restore in the first place!  I tried starting over and held the power and home button until I got a message on ITunes that the device needed restoring - I went through the steps again and am right back at the same screen.  Any ideas??

    Make sure you are following the instructions in this procedure to the letter.
    Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. Be patient since it sometimes takes several of these attempts before you are successful.
    If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links. 
    Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup". This assumes you have a backup. If you do not, you will have to download all your purchased iTunes content again. You do not have to pay for anything you already purchased.
    If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.

  • Need help with original MacBook, Snow Leopard, iPod Touch and iPad

    I have the original MacBook (2GHz Intel Core Duo) and I just installed Snow Leopard.  My software is all up to date and my system drive has 42 GB of space available. I have an iPod Touch 32 GB 3rd Gen and iPad 1 32 GB that I previously have been syncing with an iBook G4 PowerPC with no problems.  The iPod is running iOS 6. 
    Now, I want to sync them with this MacBook but when I open iTunes and connect the iPod, I go to click Backup (to this Computer(or even to iCloud)), it gives me an error message that my computer does not have enough space to backup.  The iPod is only 17 GB full.  So, I tried clicking Sync, in an effort to just get my iPod data into my iTunes and on the computer that way.  But it only did a 3 step sync and didn't actually transfer anything from the iPod.  My iPod was NOT wiped clean however(which is what I was actually worried would happen).  So I gave up on the iPod. 
    Moving on to the iPad, I clicked back up and it WAS able to backup.  The Available space on my system drive went from about 42.8 GB to 42.25 GB, so I figured it may have done something.  Then I tried to Sync and it did the same 3 step sync and nothing was transferred to the computer and the iPad left untouched.
    I am extremely new to Snow Leopard, so maybe I am missing something.  Does anyone have any idea what is going on?  Ultimately my goal is to just get everything from my iPod and iPad onto this MacBook.

    See if yhis article helps with your sync and backup issues http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
    Make sure that you click on each tab on the top of the iTunes window and select what you want to be synched.

    As far as replacing the hard drive it's very easy, here's a guide http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Core+2+Duo+Hard+Drive+Replacement/514/1
    IF you do decide to replace the hard drive you might consider a solid state drive, less power, less heat and WAYYYYY faster. I replaced mine with a Samsung 840 250GB SSD and it's the best upgrade I've ever done to a computer.

    I also have an old ipod nano and I thought that the dock burned but it did charged the ipod nano
    Thanks.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    Sometmes this works
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    Otherwise go to the dock manufacture's support site. Sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility and you will have to wait for either an iOS update (very unlikely) or an update to the firmware on the dock

  • Is it possible to manually manage music on the iPod Touch and still have your last played info updated?

    Hi, I'm running low on my iPod Touch capacity so have set it to 'manually manage music'. However, when on this setting, it doesn't update iTunes with 'last played' information. Is there any way to enable this? I appreciate it's not a huge issue but it is something I ike.

  • My iPod Touch And IPad 2 Aren't Playing YouTube Videos! is YouTube Down?

    My IPad And IPod Touch Isn't Playing YouTube Videos But My Laptop Is Playing YouTube Videos Fine. Please Reply. Thank you!

    YouTube is not down on my iPad. You may want to try a soft reset of your device. Hold the "lock" and "home" buttons at the same time until the screen changes to the Apple logo. If that doesn't work, it can either be a problem with your internet connection. Make sure you can connect to everything else, and then call Apple support.
    WARNING: Telephone support MAY cost you if you are not covered by Apple Care.

  • Plz help i went to restore my ipod touch and it just froze and its not restoring plz help

    PLZ SOME1 HELP MY IPOD FROZE WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED 2 RESTORE AND IT JUST HAS THE APPLE SIGN

    Hi hellomynameisbrooke,
    Try rebooting the iPod by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.
    If that doesn't work, connect it to your computer and try restoring it via iTunes.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,
