Help! I can't download updates or music to iPod Mini.

Up to last night my iPod mini has worked perfectly. Now today, I added more songs to my library and unchecked a number of songs within the library and tried to update my iPod with the revised music listing.
However, no I get the following error message: [u]"Attempting to copy to disk "iPod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."[/u] I subsequently retored the iPod, using the new updater, and reloaded iTunes etc, as well as rebooting the PC. Also changed USB ports...
Can anyone tell me what I need to do? I have a factory setting iPod with no music on and apparenly no way of putting any music on it!

  • Can I download updates or music from iTunes whilst MacBook is sleeping?

    Is there a way around this. I wish to download a lot of my music from iCloud , like 40gb worth but I don't want to keep the MacBook "awake" does it download when it's sleeping?
    The same with system and app updates, it seems to stop when it goes to sleep, is there a way around this?
    Because the download is so big I will have to leave it open and turn the energy setting off so it doesn't go to the auto sleep
    Help please!

    No. The Mac must not be in sleep mode when downloading from iCloud. Same goes for app updates.
    However, you can put the display to sleep when downloading content. Just not the hard drive.

    Hey, I understand how ****** off you must be at getting bounced around . It most likely has something to do with some port being blocked by your internet service provider or on your router.  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297 lists ports 80, 443, 3689, 5297, 5298, 5353, 8000-8999, and 42000-42999 as ports that need to be open for you to connect to the itunes store. I would recommed contacting your isp and making sure that they are not blocking anything (in a nice unaccusing way, you never know, it might not be their fault), or if they can help you determine if your router is the cause. Before you do that you could also make an appointent with the genius bar at your apple retail store to make sure you can connect to the itunes store on their network, although if you can connect to wifi through safari, it probably is not related to the wifi hardware of your device.
    As last ditch efforts, I would try updating your device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623 (I recommend backing-up your device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 and any itunes purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 just to be sure). If that doesn't work, I would restore it and set it up as a new device through itunes on a computer, that will wipe out any problem software and install the operating system as new, you can then test it to see if the issue was related to any software you had on it.
    Let us know what you decide to do and if any suggestions helped. Good luck.

  • I have a computer with windows 8, when I plug in IPOD Touch, get message can't download pictures, no music library appears. Any suggestions?

    I have a computer with windows 8, when I plug in IPOD Touch, get message can't download pictures, no music library appears or icon. Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod/Ipad/Iphone, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Hard Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds or until Apple logo appears
    Make sure you have Itunes downloaded
    Make sure Itunes is the latest version
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

  • How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5?

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me on this problem?
    How can I download/update my contacts between my MacBook address and my iPhone 5? They don't sync with each other.  Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Discussions, Catwang!
    You can use iTunes to sync the two devices. See the KB article, iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer and iTunes for Mac: sync contacts, calendar and other info.
    If you want to use iCloud, your MacBook  needs to use at least OS 10.7.4 or later. See Set up iCloud on all your Devices.

    Hi,
    Try the following
    First of all, uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    When this has completed, restart the notebook.
    Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.
    http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
    After the installation, restart the notebook again.
    Regards,

  • I can't download updates from the update option in PS CS 5.1.

    I can't download updates from the update option in PS CS 5.1. Also having trouble installing the update directly from ADOBE. The program is crashing my system on a regular basis. Anybody got any ideas?

    It might help if you were a bit more specific, e.g., ''I chose Help - Updates, and this happened, then that happened, then an error message that stated 'xxxxxx' was displayed''.
    It could also help others help you if you'd describe your system - what kind of hardware, what operating system, etc.  One good way to do that is to choose Help - System Info in Photoshop, then copy and paste the info into a post here.

  • I can't download my offline music

    Hello, Spotify-Community! Since the new update with the new color of Spotify is out,I can't download my offline music on my Android anymore (HTC One M7).I'm in the same WLAN-Network, Spotify is on PC and Android open, but it's always said "Waiting for Download...". I have reinstall Spotify on PC and Android, nothings works.Has anyone a Solution for that?

    I'm having the same problem and it makes me totally crazy! I reinstalled the desktop app. I deleted all my data on my phone and reinstalled the Spotify App. I also deleted the cache files on my PC and copied the local files to another folder on my hard drive in case that there are problems with my external drive. Of course, after that I changed the folder paths within the Spotify settings. Nothing worked. I still can play the songs on my PC within the desktop app, but not on my phone. 2 days ago I was able to listen to my local files on my phone. Since yesterday it doesn't work anymore. Please have a look on the attached image. The first two songs are local songs. Although I set the playlist as offline, the two songs are not downloaded. Please, is there any oher solution for that? Maybe it's a bug in the new app version or something else?? Thank you,Christian

  • Can connect to appstore but not can't download songs or music albums

    can connect to appstore but not can't download songs or music albums in mp3.

    Sorry, but music tracks and other media contact are not available in Israel via an iTunes Store at this time. None of us here can say when Apple will be able to obtain the necessary licenses and feel it worthwhile to set up an iTunes Store for your country.
    Regards.

  • A few years ago I bought music from Itunes.  Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer.  Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it.  How can I download all the music I have purchased from

    A few years ago I bought music from Itunes.  Recently I deactivated all computers in order to add a new computer.  Most of the music I purchased came through, but I am still missing about 30% of it.  How can I download all the music I have purchased from Itunes?

    Might have luck with that here >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Previous purchases may be unavailable if they have been refunded or are no longer on the iTunes Store.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchases.
