HT1351 my ipod classic will no longer sync any movies on latest version of itunes --- why?

Both of my iPods will no longer sync any movies. They always did before without any problem. I am using latest version of itunes. Any suggestions?

If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
Since there were about nine different build models
of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
one you have would be the first step to knowing
what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
detailed information is available.
When you find the serial number, there is a web
page that can be used to identify by serial no.
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
Good luck & happy computing!

My Ipod Classic will no longer sync with my MAC.

The message says that for it to sync with the new library, it will have to remove the old one. I don't want to loose my songs, and don't know what to do! It shows that I've purchased the songs on my itunes library, but it doesn't show on my ipod classic!

Syncing is iTunes keeping your iTunes library (or a defined portion of the iTunes library) "in sync" (the same as) the library on your iPod. And iTunes syncing of content generally goes in one direction only, from iTunes library on computer to the iPod. That's why, if you want to sync it to a NEW iTunes library, iTunes is warning you that the existing library on the iPod will be replaced.
So, you cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library. Once your iTunes library is consolidated with ALL of your songs, you can sync your iPod to it.
NOTE: If you have songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store on the iPod, you can re-download them at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen. The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS.

IPad 2 will no longer sync any movies from itunes

None of the movies I purchaced in iTunes will sync to my iPad anymore. When I click on the sync selected movies, then select any movie, then hit apply, the sync just ignores the fact that the movie is checked to sync. No errors, just no movies on my iPad. I did the backup / factory reset of my ipad but still have the same problem.
this problem seems to have started ever siince I moved iTunes over from my 32 bit windows 7 machine to my newer 64 bit windows 7 machine.
Any ideas?

Looks like the movies needed to be checked under "Library | Movies" and "My IPad | Movies" in order to sync.
Somehow the "Library | movies" were unchecked.
where is the above info? I am having the same problem on my daughters ipad. thanks

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes. it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted. Any suggestions?

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
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Then try restoring again.

My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists. I've restored it twice. What is the problem?

My iPod Classic will no longer allow me to create podcast playlists. It create music playlists. I've restored it twice. What is the problem?

Is the problem that you can create them in iTunes, but they are empty on the iPod itself? If so, I had that problem, and the issue appeared to be that playlists that used MediaType=Podcast didn't seem to transfer. If, on the other hand, I gave all podcasts a Genre of Podcast, it worked better. In general, with the older iPod classic, I found that playlists based on MediaType didn't work that well.

Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
$19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

Safari on iPod touch will no longer open any web pages even after reset.

My iPod touch will no longer open any web pages via Safari. I am connected to WiFi and other apps work fine (mail for example). I connected to Itunes and did a reset - still no luck. S/w is up to date for this version of touch - 4.x.
Please help with any ideas?

HT1386 Syncing iPad/PC using latest version of iTunes

Syncing iPad and a PC using The latest version of iTunes -- iTunes doesn't show DEVICE icon on the top message bar anymore.

With iTunes running on your PC, check the upper left hand corner. Do you see "File, Edit, View, etc."? If so, click view and "show side bar". If not, see if in the extreme upper left corner there is a 1/2 shaded box. Click on "show menu bar", then choose view and show side bar. You should see your device on the left hand side of the page.

My iPod classic will no longer download my podcasts

It has worked for years but now it will not download from iTunes' pane What gives?

Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under theDevices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it. Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.
I assume you aren't receiving any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?

IPod Classic will not properly sync

Hey everybody. I'm really hoping that somebody could help me out with this, as I am getting rather frustrated with it.
My iPod Classic 120GB will not properly sync with iTunes on Windows 7. When I plug my iPod into my computer, I get the typical "Scan & Fix" message from Windows, and I generally just close the window without selecting an option (to Scan & Fix or Ignore), as neither option has ever seemed to change anything.
I used to have over 100GB of music on my iPod, collected from various sources over the past 5 years or so, but a few months ago I plugged my iPod in to add new music to it, and iTunes did not recognize any of the files on my iPod. When I ejected it, there was no music on my iPod, but it still had 100GB of space filled. I decided to just bite the bullet and reformat my iPod, even though I would be losing most of my music, in hopes that I could make it work correctly.
However, after I reformatted it, I have continued to have problems. I have reformatted using both iTunes and the Windows reformatting tool. Every time I plug my iPod in to add new music, the same things happen. I'm not automatically syncing iTunes to my iPod, because I like to be able to manage my music manually. I can add some music to it, but certain files will not copy and then nothing alphabetically after those files will copy either. I eject my iPod and use it normally throughout the day, but then when I plug it back into my computer again to try to add the rest of my music, iTunes says that my iPod has no music on it (even though space is being used). When this happens, I just restore the iPod and try again, and this is getting extremely aggravating.
My music is all in MP3 format, and I am not trying to add movies, pictures, or any other files to my iPod (other than cover art). I have run anti-virus checks and stuff on all of my music files, and everything has come up clean. Should I try converting all of my music to AAC, or will this just take forever and not actually fix anything? I have already tried downgrading to an older version of iTunes, and I have still been having the same issues. I don't know what else I could do, and I really don't have the money to buy a new iPod.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

There may be some hardware fault on the iPod's hard drive, which is causing this problem. Your use of manual loading may be agravating the problem, because you are making the iPod apply many small incremental disk access updates. If you used automatic syncing, iTunes makes all changes at once, with one disk access, then dismounts the iPod's disk and spins down until the next sync, when it again makes all updates at once.
I understand why you want to use the manual method, but here's a way to "replicate" what you do manually using automatic syncing.
Create a new playlist in iTunes. Load this playlist with ALL the songs you want on the iPod.
Select the iPod in iTunes. There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Music there. On the Music tab, set it to Sync music using Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Below that, keep it simple by checkmarking ONLY that new playlist with the songs you want on the iPod. When you click Apply, the songs on that playlist sync to the iPod.
Going forward, to update the iPod's songs, just update that playlist (add and remove songs). Basically, instead of manually updating the iPod, you are manually updating the playlist. It's the same work, but with several key advantages:
- The iPod does not need to be connected to make updates, increasing flexibility and reducing wear-and-tear on iPod. Just connect the iPod once after you are done making all changes to the playlist.
- Updates to a playlist are instantaneous. Updates made directly to an iPod (especially one with a hard drive that may need to spin up) takes a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on data size. You're just waiting.
- Many small updates to the iPod's hard drive is more wear-and-tear, compared to iTunes applying all of your changes with one consolidated disk access.
- iTunes keeps the iPod's "disk" NOT mounted, except when syncing. This reduces wear-and-tear, and the chance of data corruption occuring. The manual method requires the iPod's disk to be mounted at all times (until ejected).
- Because the iPod's disk is not mounted most of the time, you don't need to eject before disconnecting.
- You have a backup of all of your iPod songs on the computer's hard drive.
- If you do a Restore, or if you get a new iPod, all you do is go to the Music tab and select that one playlist again, and click Apply. Everything back to the way it was before, with a few mouse clicks (and 20-30 minutes or so of syncing).
If you want multiple playlists on the iPod, just create those playlists in the iTunes library. Name them so that they all appear grouped together in the iTunes sidebar. Checkmark those playlists on the Music tab. Do your "song maintenance" in iTunes using those playlists, and let iTunes automatically sync all changes at once the next time you connect the iPod (or click the Sync button).
Try setting it up to use automatic syncing, to see if there is any improvement.

IPod Classic 160gb No longer Syncs

I've had my iPod classic for about 2 years now and have had no problems other than a few issues with displaying the correct album artwork.
Two days ago, my iPod started to fail syncs, with a variety of error messages, including error 53, error 1392, claimed as corrupted and unreadable, claimed as being unable to be found, and claimed as having duplicate file names. It will sync up to a certain point and then dump two to four error messages on me, with no pattern I can discern.
I have tried restarting my computer, restoring my iPod, letting windows 'fix the errors on my drive', and reinstalling iTunes, as well as manually loading my songs onto my iPod and turning off Windows UAC, all in a variety of orders.
Stranger still, the syncing process will leave about 1500 songs on my iPod, out of my library of over 10,000, with no pattern I can discern.
I would be very thankful for any help.

ok, when i convert a video .mpg file into .mp4...then Sync it into ipod.it goes into my VIDEOS folder on ipod. but when i play the video...
visuals appear, clip plays...but no sound. why is this?
Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
See:iPod plays video but not audio.
You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).
