  • When I try to sync my iPod with iTunes I can't because it says it's over capacity. It's not. It's a 16 GB iPod, it's only 105 songs on there. No movies or pictures or such. Anybody got a word of advise?

Anybody got a word of advise? I've tried resetting the iPod but get the message that it's not possible cause i'm not connected to internet. I am though. Tried managing music manually. I've tried all the usual stuff.

    Go to Settings > General > Usage and see how much is shown available and how much is in "Other".

  • MY hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. Now when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes it says that I have to replace the old library (that is lost forever) with the new library to sync. I do not want to lose all the songs on my iPod! What can I do?

    Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

    Hello esiuolyma,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iPod is not recognized and that will not allow you to sync. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

  • When I try to sync my iPod shuffle 2gb all of my music can't be located.

    When I try to sync my iPod shuffle 2gb all of my music can't be located. After I disconnect and reboot itunes it is all there. I have tried 2 shuffles. Both make my entire liberary dissapear once I click sync.

    I'm not sure if the original poster ever got this issue resolved or not, but I'm having the exact same problem.  My iPod shuffle is a 1Gig 2nd Generation, and I have all of my music library on an external hard drive.  Before connecting my shuffle, I can play all the songs through iTunes perfectly fine, as well as sync them all to my 160GB iPod classic.  As soon as I connect my shuffle, iTunes can no longer find or play any of my music, or sync any of it to the shuffle.  In fact, it seems to make the external drive disappear from the computer entirely.  When I right click My Computer->Explore, the external drive is still there, but no files are shown on it.  After disconnecting the shuffle and rebooting the computer, the external drive is back to normal, until the shuffle is connected again.
    For what its worth, this is a new problem, only started happening in the last couple months.  I've had the shuffle for 2+ years now, and I have been syncing music to it from the external USB hard drive for just as long with no issues.  Occasionally, I can sync 1-10 songs to it at a time before the external drive and all the music disappears, but for the last couple of days, the external drive seems to disappear as soon as the shuffle is connected.
    Thanks for any help, I only use the shuffle for the gym/bike riding/snowboarding and I know they're fairly cheap to replace now, but I don't want to pay for a newer generation if I'll still have the same issue.

  • I have been using iPod touch and iTunes with Windows XP - no problems.  I now have a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium.  When I try to sync the iPod with Windows 7 and iTunes it will not transfer all my photographs.  What can I do?

    When I tried to sync my iPod Touch with my new computer none of the photographs were synced.  I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.  When I did it the first time the photographs were all muddled up in their albums.  When I tried to sync again the photographs were all removed.  On the third try I received an error message something like 'Unable to sync photographs program cannot be found.' Can anyone help.  (It may be to do with Windows 7 and Libraries??)

  • Why when I try to sync my iPod does the error message come up that it can't be backed up to my computer???!

    I'm having issues syncing my iPod today! I sync once a week, I've got the latest version of iTunes, but today it tells me that it won't back up to my computer, WHY? Since updating iTunes, it keeps coming up with a separate error message about not being authorised for the library thing, after I've synced/used iTunes... Oh & it point blank refused to recognise my iPad to sync. It's driving me potty :(

    I dislike technology on occasions... I shut down iTunes, plugged my iPad back in & NOW it decides to sync!!! No error messages...and then it syncs my iPod with no problems as well!!! It seems that I can't start iTunes, play music & then decide to sync the toys. I HAVE to just plug in the iPod/iPad and let it start up all by itself. How irritating! Thank you for responding!

  • HT4623 i updating my ipod with iso 4.2.1 and now I can't use my apps any more when I try to sync my apps say i have to put the iso 4.3 I don't know what can I do

    somebody knows what happen

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

    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • No 'devices' tab when I try to sync my iPod!

    I plug my iPod 4th generation into my mac. It is charging, but it does not appear in my iTunes because there is NO 'devices' tab. Please help!

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    Then if necessary:

    This is by no means a full solution, but deleting and re-adding only takes a few minutes if you use the "Export Device" and "Bulk Import" features from the Device Work Center. You can export the desired devices to a CSV file, delete them, then import from the CSV. 
    Of course, you might lose historical data when deleting the devices, but I'm guessing that's not as relevant since the devices themselves have been replaced by different hardware.

  • Can't see devices items on the finder

    Hi after downloading lion i can't see devices items on Imac. How can I find those? Thank you for your help in advance. 

    Some more information may be helpful. 
    What can't you see?  Your internal HD?  External USB drives?  Printer?  Scanner? 
    Where can't you see it?  On your desktop?  Under "System Information"?  Sidebar?
    Thanks!
