How do I remove a nonplaying song from my iPod Touch that doesn't appear in iTunes?
I found a song on my iPod Touch (3rd Generation) that doesn't play. Yet it doesn't show up in iTunes when I connect the iPod Touch to my computer. How do I delete it it off my iPod Touch?
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
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.
- Try unsyncing all music and then resyc what you want.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

How do I remove a podcast episode from my iPod touch that has been deleted from iTunes?

How do I remove songs from an ipod touch (that we never put on there)?
My daughter has a 5th gen ipod touch. When she opened it tonight, there are songs on there that we never put on it. I plugged her ipod in and opened itunes and the songs showing on the ipod are not showing up as being on the ipod when we are looking at itunes. In other words, when I am in itunes on my pc, when I click on music under her ipod's name it only shows a few songs (the ones we manually added) but not the ones showing up in the music app on the device. I have it set to manually manage music and always have. How do we get them off the ipod? I have home sharing turned off in the ipod and cloud is not enabled. How did they get on there and how do I get them off? These songs were not all bought through itunes but they are in itunes on the pc.
Also, "show all music" in the ipod settings is not on. Also, these songs were not on it yesterday. She listens to music every day using the shuffle feature and up until tonight, only the few songs she manually added would play. Now they all want to play (and it's not all of the songs from itunes either, so I'm not sure what made just these songs show up).automatic downloads is turned off and already was. Nothing happens when I swipe left and right on songs that are not supposed to be on it (and they are also not showing as being on the ipod when it's plugged in). I don't think the songs are actually on the device but they do play when she shuffles her songs and she doesn't want that. And there's no rhyme or reason about which songs are showing in the songs list.
As for syncing, the ipod had not even been synced since we first bought it and put songs on it. The correct songs were on it the entire time until yesterday. It had not been synced at all (only plugged in to charge and itunes was never turned on while it was plugged in). What is involved in "syncing correctly"? Don't you just hit the sync button in itunes? We have 5 ipod touches in our household and have since 2009 or so, so we aren't complete beginners when it comes to them. We've synced before.
eta: for now I've created a playlist of the songs she originally wanted on there, so that she can at least shuffle through just those songs. We'd still like to solve this though. -

An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.

How do I remove blank white screen from my ipod touch?
help! my iPod is stuck on a white screen and holding any button down is not helping. I'm thinking of leaving it overnight and waiting if it is fixed in the morning. Is this a good idea or is there a better method/solution for troubleshooting iPod Touch.
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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Both of my sons have iPod touches. I set them both up on my iTunes account. The problem we are having is when they are using iMessage. When one sends a message the other also receives it. The message is labeled as from my email address. Is there a way to differentiate the 2 iPods?

how can i remove the phone number from the text messages that i receive in the notification center?
You choose whether to see text messages in Notification Center or not. If you elect to see them, they will display the phone number (unless they are from a contact in your contacts list).
You can choose not to see them at Settings > Notification Center > Messages. -
I am trying to transfer songs from my iPod touch to my computer and can not figure out how to do it. I also want to transfer the songs I have back in to iTunes. My hard drive went out on my computer and I lost all of my songs, except for on my iPod. I have an iPhone as well and did an update and it wiped out all of my songs. Someone please help me.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for just such an occasion. use your backup copy to put everything back. -
Alright, so my ipod touch stopped working, but I can still connect it to itunes, but my friend gave me his old nano. I was wondering how I could get my more updated songs from my ipod touch onto th nano. My laptop crashed whitch had all my new music, and im afraid if I sync my Ipod touch to the desktop with all my old songs, ill lose all my newer ones which I dont want to happen because I want them on my nano. Im sorry for the confusing topic im just so lost.
All you have to do is connect your new iPod to the computer that has the library for your old iPod.
When iTunes comes up, click on your new iPod under Devices.
At the top of the Summary Page click Music.
Click Synch Music.
Do the same thing for Photos, Apps, Movies and so on...
Now just synch the iPod. -
