How can I get my ipod touch properly when it keeps stalling in different stages and hours later doesn't sync all the songs I checked?
My ipod touch has been stalling in different stages of the syncing process and when it finally stops hours later, it only syncs some of the songs and playlists I've checked. This is well within the memory storage. To be honest, this thing has been a problem since all the updates a year ago. I've been using my ipod classic, but I would like to use this one because of the blue tooth capabilities. This is very frustrating.
Try here. Do not forget the Additional Information topic.

I can't seem to get all my songs and playlists that are checked to sync to my ipod touch. The ipod has been troublesome since the first round of updates. It was originally set on "itunes match", but it was dropping songs for some reason and since the wifi only operates when I'm in a place where wifi is available, I can't download the songs again while I'm on the road. I turned off itunes match and plugged it in to my computer to sync it that way, and it keeps stalling in different stages of the sync process. After hours and hours of being stuck, it "completes" without syncing any of my playlists that I checked.
Try a low level reformat of the iPod's hard drive to possibly try and repair some of its damage. Use the instructions in this article to walk you through the process.

How can you get your iPod touch open when you forgot the password and its disabled and not connected to the Internet Connection and you don't want to reset it.
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
How can I get my iTunes to function properly. It stopped working a couple of days ago and I can't figure how to get back and running. I have tried numerous things such as rebooting, checking for the network connection, applying it to open without security measures. Error message "Your connection time out. Check your connection." Even though I can get into the internet, iTunes is still not responding! Technical support help isn't helping!
Just to close out ... the 'supervisor' was clueless as it turns out. Apple does NOT have a deal with UPS on handling the Mini, so the person who gave me the info was wrong. Did he call back? No ... he just let me go out and find out myself.
So I called again, and this time eventually ended up with a manager, who told me that the UPS Store thing wouldn't work, but that a box would arrive and then there would be a 'forced replacement'.
About 10 minutes later he called back and said he discovered that EVERYTHING the supervisor did was wrong ... he didn't actually properly flag for auto-replace, so I would have gone through an identical cycle again! So he had to restart the whole process, meaning I would get TWO 'coffins', but that I would then get an auto-replacement and would see that indicated in my support email.
I got the email, saw 'auto-replace'. Got the box on the 28th and immediately turned it around. Apple got the box on the 31st, and on the 1st I got emails that my Mini would arrive on the 2nd and it also had the new serial #.
Yesterday I grab the box from FedEx and go home to check it out. As expected, it IMMEDIATELY worked on my WiFi without issue ... and has worked perfectly since.
So ...
- it was NOT my home network.
- it WAS a hardware issue with the Mini
- Apple does NOT do proper testing on the Mini to detect what appears to be a fairly common issue.
- non-retail customers ARE treated as second-class by support.
This issue took FOUR WEEKS to resolve, involved FOUR shipments back & forth, and the ONLY reason it got resolved was that *I* did the troubleshooting that Apple either would not or could not do.
For someone who has been an Apple customer for more than 30 years, this has been a sobering experience ... I quite frankly expected much better from them. -
When I try to download anything from iTunes or the App Store on my iPod Touch, my sister's Apple ID pops up instead of mine. How can I get my iPod Touch to display my Apple ID and ask for my password rather than display my sister's Apple ID?
You can try to tell the iPod to use yours:
1. Tap Settings
2. Navigate to "iTunes & App Store"
3. Tap Apple ID:
4. Tap "Sign Out"
5. Sign in to your account. -

How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or to charge?
How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or charge?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -

How can I get my Ipod Touch 2 replaced?
Recently, I found out that my Ipod Touch 2 has an accelerometer issue.
When I put it on a flat surface, it shows up there is 20 degree incline(I use an app named iHandy Level to find that). Yes, I can calibrate it, but when I did so, and turn it 180 degree, it shows up that 20 degree incline again. As a computer engineer myself, I know it's a hardware fault. And I notice some other Iphone/Ipod Touch user have the same issue and had their Iphone/Ipod Touch replaced.
I tried to find out how can I get it replaced at www.apple.com/support, but I didn't find anything helpful. Since I live in a small city, there is no apple retail store here. I need to drive 4 hours to reach the nearest one. And I bought it 6 months ago, so they don't provide complimentary phone support to me.
Is there any chance that I needn't to drive so far to get my Ipod Touch replaced?
Since I am not a naticve English speaker, maybe there is some information helpful but I didn't find it?Hi,
I tried to send it back to apple to get a replacement TWICE!!!
And get nothing...
They said:
Our technicians have performed full diagnostic checks on your IPOD TOUCH (2ND GENERATION) and have been unable to reproduce the symptom(s) you reported when you requested the repair. As a result of our tests, we can confirm that your product meets Apple specifications for performance, usability, and functionality.
I feel really bad, especially the second time...

TS2771 How can i get my Ipod touch 4g to charge again??
My Ipod Touch 4th Generation wont charge. It worked perfectly fine on saturday night, when i last plugged it in. I took my ipod off the charger in the morning, and then that night, it would not charge, and then it died. I've tried plugging it in all night and all day, no luck. I've tried plugging it into different plugs around my house, and using different cords, etc. , With no luck. How can i get it to work again????

How can i get my ipod touch in argentina?
So,that is the question,where can i buy my ipod touch,and send me to argentina,sorry for my english,its so bad
Actually, there is a very good store in my country (in terms of warranity, quality, reliability... And a few months ago my iPod Video sort of... died, and they exchanged it to a new one), but their price is really high. I save almost 200$ if I buy it through the internet... so I kinda... well, don't know what to do
However, there is an official representation of Apple in Israel, so I'll contact them and ask about how the warranity will work if I order an iPod from abroad. By now it's weekend down here so I'm gonna have to wait for the day after tomorrow.
Thanks for caring
Oh, and one thing I wanted to ask you:
Do you know if does a invoice come with the iPod when I order it so I can show it to them in case I need the warranity?

How can I get my iPod to update when it says the server cannot be connected?
Whenever I try to update my iPod it says, "The iPod software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." It does this every time. How can I get it to update? Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -
How can I get my iPod Touch out of Recovery?
I've had my iPod Touch 4G for almost five months now. Since my laptop is very slow, I just buy all of my music and apps on my iPod. I actually take the time to transfer everything about once a month. Yesterday I was going to transfer my purchased items from iPod to computer, since I skipped transferring for two months. While I let my computer start up, I checked Facebook on my iPod. Since I had just changed my password Facebook said it was logging me out, but it was taking a bit longer than usual. I decided just to delete and re-download the app. While it was re-downloading, I checked the weather and my whole iPod froze. I clicked the home button multiple times, with no success, so I held the sleep/wake button and home button until the Apple icon showed (that's what I normally do when it freezes). However, the icon stayed on for five minutes. The screen then flashed white, black, and the Apple icon came back on. About a minute later, the screen showed "Connect to iTunes". I connected it, and iTunes said it was in recovery mode and I would have to restore it. It makes me sick to know that I was just about to transfer all of my purchases/photos to my computer, but now everything is gone. Is there any way I can get out of recovery and save everything? Thanks in advance.
Is there any way I can get out of recovery
Sorry, but no.
Most important word in computing. "Backup"...
Check iTunes / Preferences - Devices. If you have a backup stored there, you may be in luck.
Otherwise, it's a restore.
