Help! iPod messes w/ iTunes 7.0

I need some help guys. I installed the new iTunes 7.0 and it works fine when there is NO iPod plugged in. But as soon as I plug either a 4 gig Nano or 30 gig Video in, it either goes extremely slow or freezes completely. Sometimes I am able to get it to start updating one of the iPods, but then it freezes and I have to end the program and unplug my iPod, and nothing on the iPod has been updated....
My question is, is there any kind of fix for this problem? Or do I have to go back to iTunes 6.# - and if I do this, will I loose my organized library of music? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out.

Have the same problem. Please complete the feedback for in itunes. At least we're three now with the same problem. I gonna try something, I've let you know how is goes.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Make sure everything is updated...

    Also, try a restore...

  • Please help, iPod Nano and iTunes issues

    1. I can't update my iPod Product Red. I've downloaded the update, and when I click "update" in iTunes, it just sits there for hours saying its updating
    2. The first time I start windows, connect my iPod Nano and then start iTunes (or even the other way around, start itunes then connect ipod), my nano doesn't show up in itunes. I need to restart the service after plugging in the nano every single time!
    3. I cant restore my iPod Nano either, the same problem with the updating my ipod, the progress screen just goes back and forth for hours without doing anything, infact my nano just seems like it looses synch during both an update and a restore, because the do not disconnect message on the screen goes away once either update or restore process is started.
    Please help! This is my first ipod purchase and so far it is really disappointing me and frustrating, thanks

  • IPod says "Use iTunes to Restore"

    My 1st generation ipod nano has been having problems. Whenever I try to turn it on it either does not respond or says "Use iTunes to Restore". When I plug it into the computer, iTunes recognizes it as a "corrupted iPod" and asks if I would like to restore it. When I try to restore it, it begins the process but then says there is an error and it cannot be restored. I have tried to reset my iPod many times, I have tried all USB ports and different USB cords, my iTunes is up-to-date. I don't know what the problem is. Should I send my iPod in for repair, or buy another one, or can I fix it? Please help!

    Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help:: iPod displays "Use iTunes to restore" message

    I have the same problem with mine... but im trying to find a way to fix it without restoring it...
    but one fix is to shut it down completely ... then press and hold BOTH the power button and the home button .. hold both of those 4 ten seconds .. then release the power button but still hold down the home button .. and then it'll show something that says "connect to itunes" once u get it connected to itunes , click the restore button ... BEWARE THIS WILL WIPE OUT EVERYTHING ON YOUR IPOD!!! IT WILL RESTORE IT BACK TO FACTORY SETTINGS , AS IF U JUST BOUGHT IT !!!!! then it should work fine again .. but u will lose all data on there besides the things you have synced with itunes already..
    Thats y im iffy with doing this , im trying to find a fix where i wont have 2 restore it but i dont think there is 1 :'(
    good luck tho

  • When I went to update my iPod touch on iTunes, it said unable to update then the iPod shutdown and no longer showed connected in iTunes.  I have tried holding down both buttons for up to 3 mins with no luck turning it on, even after a full charge.  Help?

    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 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.

  • Need help syncing new ipod touch to Itunes.

    I recently bought a brand new Ipod touch 5th gen. I have the latest update for itunes, I want to start syncing music to my Ipod. My computer will not bring any info for this ipod touch into itunes. I had a 4th gen and I know that I seen on the right hand corner, under the search store, there should be a little icon with your Ipod below. No where is my Ipod been found. Every time I plug the USB cord into the computer, I don't see anything come on the screen. All I see is the battery charging on my Ipod. I'm getting frustrated with this Ipod not allowing me to get any music. What am I doing wrong? I also don't see any summary pane for me to reset to factory settings and start all over. how can someone help me on this? I tried turning on and off both the Ipod and computer, nothing, still the same and no Ipod is to be found on itunes.  PLEASE HELP!!

    Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
    If necessary:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Or
    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or              
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • Helpful Information about getting music from ANY ipod onto your itunes!!!

    This is a message letting all Windows itunes users how to put music from any ipod onto their itunes, or other music player. Many people are annoyed when itunes doesn't let them put music from an ipod, thats not registered with their computer, into their itunes. I found that it is possible. First, you must open Search from the start menu and make sure your ipod is connected to your computer. Next, set the search prefrences to search for hidden files and tell it to search for music(on the ipod). Once you begin the search, you will be shown all the hidden music files that are on your ipod. After the search, just drag the files to itunes and they'll import.*
    *Note: the files wont say the names of the songs until you import them into itunes or any other music player.

  • HELP, Ipod nano 4 GB v 1.2 not visible in itunes v7.02.16

    I did the update for Itunes v7.02.16 and after this my ipod nano 4 GB firmware v1.2 was not visible in itunes but in de windows explorer it was shown. I was more then a hour on the phone with a support guy, with the result (his opinion) that it was a hardware problem. His advice was updating the usb driver. I did, but the problems was not solved. I did the same install on 2 other computer and all gave the same problems, I've tried all the solutions on the faq etc, the 5 R's etc.
    A strange thing is that de diagnostic in Itunes tells me all the information about the connectec ipod, it shows the serial nummer. name, busspeed, firmware etc.
    WHO can help, my mind is empty.

    I am having a similar problem. However, I have not updated my USB drive. How did you do that?
    For the support guy (or gal)...I have an iPod nano 2 GB and when I plug it into my USB port (I have 2 ports and have tried both) iTunes opens but doesn't recognize that my iPod is connected. When I run iPod diagnostics through iTunes it says iPod Connection Status-Failed, even though it is connected. I cannot sync my iPod via iTunes. I have tried numerous troubleshooters on the apple.com support website without any success (reinstalling iTunes, etc.) I took it to an Apple store this weekend and when they hooked my iPod up with my cable, their Mac recognized my iPod. If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
