How do i get my Ipod 6th generation to show up on itunes, then restore without telling me its corrupt!

Hi, so the story is about a month ago i had brought in my Ipod 6th generation in to an apple store because the sleep button was stuck down (that ipod was from this past christmas). It was under warenty so I got another one free, but now this new one wont
1. Show up on Itunes
2. When it rarely does (it shows up randomly even when its not plugged in) It says its corrupted. I hit restore and that bar goes on forever!
Ive uninstalled and reinstalled itunes tons of times and that doesnt work, ive restarted my computer which doesnt help. ive reseted my ipod by the buttons and the settings hundreds of times! Disk mode ive gone into but i dont really know whats supposed to happen after i plug it in. I have added songs to my library after my old ipod broke and before i got the new one if that makes a difference. My old ipod (6 generation) worked fine on my labtop with no troubles at all so im ripping my hair out trying to figure out what i need to do.

Ipod NANO, forgot to mention that.

This sounds like your problem:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.

Ipod 6th generation plays for about 20 sec then pauses by itself...ideas?

I have a 6th generation ipod nano. I plug it in via headphone jack, select a song, and it plays for 20 sec or so, then automatically pauses. Have tried different songs and have tried going to settings and resetting settings. Have also tried holding the power button and shutting down, then restarting. Upon restarting, I do not get the normal apple logo, it just goes back to the song that was paused. When I hit play, it plays for another 20 sec or so then pauses again. Any ideas?

This is usually an indication that your iPod's headphones are not plugged all the way in. The white part of the headset should be flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug should still be seen.

Computer crashed, how do I get my Ipod songs onto a new computer with itune

How do I get my songs off my Ipod to my new computer and then to the new itunes

If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
iGadget Windows Only
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions

If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to your new computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

How do I get my ipod items to go back into my itunes library? When i sync it says if you sync you will erase the contents of my ipod.

My Ipod 60gb has 2600+ Items on it. For some reason my Itunes Library only has 1500+. When I try to sync my Ipod to add new songs it says
if you sync you will erase the contants of your Ipod. Help

Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with another library, it will erase the current contents of the iPod and replace them with the contents from the new library.
If you have content you need to copy from your iPod back to your iTunes library, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer discussing the different ways to do this.

If the backup you're trying to restore from is encrypted, you will not be able to use that backup if you can't remember the encrypted backup passcode.
If on a Mac, & you elected to save the passcode to your Keychain, you can recover the passcode from your Keychain. Otherwise, your backup data is unrecoverable.
While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups, & restore your phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.
You delete your existing backups here: iTunes>Preferences>Devices.

Ipod 6th Generation won't sync with Itunes but is being recognised as a device on windows

Recently had to get my laptop set back to factory reset. I have reinstalled Itunes and uploaded my music back on Itunes but my Ipod wont sync. The Ipod itself is saying that it’s connected and my laptop is recognising it as a device and saying that it is working correctly. I’ve reset the Ipod and had a look at the firewall on my computer (Windows and the free Avast software) but everything seems to be working correctly. Anyone have any ideas?

do you ever unplug your iPod without ejecting it first?
