Hi,
I have a I-pod touch and everytime I plug it in to charge on my computer, it clears all my content from it, My question is, is there some switch that i'm not turning off? I do shut the I-pod off when it's in the usb. Thanks in advance, Paul
It sounds like it may have been synced to a different computer/itunes library before. To prevent automatic syncing, go to iTunes preferences. In the Device tab chck the box that ways prevent iPods.. from syncing automatically.

I have an i pod touch and have just recieved an i pod one from a friend. it is at factory settings - but i would like to transfer data from the i touch to the new i pad - can't seem to do that. when i go to i tunes to restore - it just wants to restore the blank i pad. any suggestions? Thanks
You need to backup the Touch to your computer and then Restore from that backup with the iPad. This will only work in the Touch is running 5.1.1 or earlier.

my son has forgotten his 4 digit pass code for hios i pod touch. i have been instructed to disable it and connect to i tunes to restore factory settings. when I do this the download time is anything up to 20 hours and it keeps timing out. it is now saying that i tunes cannot connect to the i pod because it is locked with a passcode and saying that i must enter the passcode - can anyone help?
- To get around the passcode issue, place the iPod in recovery mode. For how to see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- If you are getting a network timeout error during the restore, disable the computer's security software during the restore. -
M
- Try a reset.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then try restoring the iPod.
- If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
I can not get several apps to load on my i-pod touch and I even restored it back to factory. The message I get is that I need iOS 4.3, but i-tunes tells me I already have the latest version.
You can't install any application which requires iOS 4.3 or newer on a first or second generation iPod touch. If you still have a copy of that application compatible with iOS 3.1.3 or 4.2.1, import it into the iTunes library and sync it.

Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...

I have an i-pod touch, bought about 5 years ago. I used it for a bit and then left it unused for about 3 years. I cannot now get it to respond - it seems to have gone to sleep/died. It does light up with the apple icon and the 'plugging in' graphic when connected to my PC. When I have tried to unblock/restore it with the i-tunes tool, it goes through the process, but i-tunes eventually tells me that the restore is blocked. This is a shame, as I want to use the i-pad again, but it seems to be dead due to lack of use! Nothing else has happened to it - no bad use, no damage. Help?!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?
My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks.- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy. -

hi there, I need help .. I have 2 gen ipod touch and I restore my ipod around 11:00 pm and now its 1:20 am and on my screen its the iTunes logo and the usb cord and when I plug my charger in my laptop .. iTunes comes up and this what it saids "iTunes has detected an ipod recovery mode. you must restore this ipod before it can be used with iTunes" so what do I do.. do I let my ipod died right out & then try it .. because I restore it ,... it was beening to slow... so please help me ?
Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
