My iPod touch WILL NOT sync with iTunes. I have 6.1.3 on my touch & latest on ITunes. Why won't it sync????
What happens when you try?
Does anything sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

I have a disabled ipod that will not restore with iOS7
I have a disabled ipod that will not restore with iOS7
What exactly happens when you try to restore via iTunes?
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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:

I am a new iPhone 4s owner. I have a tone in iTunes that I downloaded from the web as a m4r file. Why won't it sync to my iPhone so I can set it as a ringtone?
LoisYes, the tone is available and checked in iTunes under the Tones library.
Yes, it is also listed under the Tones tab for my iPhone, but it is grayed out.
Yes, tones are selected under "sources" in General Preferences, along with everything else.
SyncTones was NOT selected under the Tones tab for my iPhone. I did so and it synced.
Thanks for your help!

It still could be cable or contacts in the iPod since different contacts/conductor are used for charging and data -

My6 month old ipod touch will no turn on. I have tried holding both the power buton and the home button to no avail. I have it plugged in and still nothing. Any hope for restoring it?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

You can only sync with one iTunes library. If you sync with another one the iPod will be erased and its contents replaced with what is in the library of the second computer.
However, you can manage music among multiple computers. See:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers

New ipod touch will not charge with car stereo anymore
I recently got an iPod Touch and when I plug it in to my car stereo it says that "charging is not supported with this accessory". I'm assuming it has something to do with the fact that the new IPT do not charge with firewire.
I'm having the same problem with a USB 2.0 extension cord I bought. this one I don't understand because it is supposed to be USB and not firewire. I've tried plugging that in to the wall with a usb wall charger but I get the same thing, so it's not an issue of there not being enough power.
As far as my car is concerned, the cable has a regular ipod connection. I look up firewire to USB converters but they all have a female firewire (small odd shaped holes) connection, so I couldn't plug my cable in to it. Does anyone have any idea on what I could do to fix this situation so that my ipod will charge while it is plugged in?You have identified a problem that has been around since the iPod touch came out (also effects the latest generation nanos). Go to your local big box store and by yourself a new charger that is compatible with the touch.

My iPod touch will not work with my ubox-f-1107 after updating to iOS 5.1.1
I have a Citroen C4 Grand Picasso 2008, I bought the UBOX-F-1107 and had it installed by the dealer here in Spain so that my Ipod touch would work and charge in my car! It worked great until I updated to the ios 5.1.1, now it does not work!!! After I plug it in it powers up, and shows Device Connected on the Ipod screen, but thats it, will not play music at all!! Please HELP!! Thanks
In order to use iMessage efficiently, add the country code to the mobile number prefix by of your contact and their iMessage ID. You will notice then when selecting the contact name in the TO, the green shade will turn into blue shade. It means your message will be sent as iMessage. Notice if you are sending message to non imessage user, the shade of the contact name is green. It means the message will be sent as text message.

Audio book appears in my downloads, has been transferred to ipod (it shows up in g drive when I plug in ipod), but when I complete the sync, and disconnect ipod, the book is not transferred to ipod
Same problem here with the same iPod- Gen4, 20 G- this started on Friday. None of the "fixes" Apple offers help because iTunes and My Computer freeze when the iPod is connected. If I disconnect while My Computer is open, it shows up briefly as the E: drive with an exclamation point and then disappears. If I disconnect with iTunes open, everything that I tried to open while it was connected suddenly pops up. I can't restore the iPod because the Updater freezes while the iPod is connected. There is no difference when I try to do these things in disk mode. The disk manager function in windows sees the iPod, but freezes up when you try and click on it.
I've run all the diagnostic tests and it passed them all. It does the same thing on other computers (all PCs) that I've tried. -
My Ipod Classic will not register with itunes
I have followed all the steps to help fix this problem. My ipod stopped syncing and charging when connected to my computer and itunes no longer recognises my ipod so i can not get into the ipod itself to do anything through Itunes. As recommended by Apple as a last resort i was able to get my ipod to come up in my Itunes long enough to restore factory settings. Even after all that my ipod now does not show up, can not sync, can not charge except through its wall plug, and is completely empty so i can not use it. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
You might want to read through this post I recently wrote summarizing what can lead to synchronization problems. My first suggestion would be to determine whether the problem lies with iTunes/your computer or the iPod itself. To that end, if you have a friend with a working iTunes setup (or at the Apple store), I'd see if you can get that machine to at least connect to your iPod and restore it with something... anything. If that works, you know the iPod itself is OK and not corrupted, and you can look at disk diagnostics and such. If that doesn't work, then contact a Genius bar for service.
If the problem is on the iTunes/your computer side, my post cited above should help. I'd suspect the problem is in the underlying Apple media drivers, and I'd move back through the iTunes versions until I find one that works. Note that, at some point, you may no longer be able to read the backed Itunes library (and do back up your libraries). If that happens, you should be able to reimport your music from where it is on disk, but you may lose metadata such as ratings, play counts, and playlists. -
1st gen ipod touch will not work with new iTunes 11.help!
1st generation Ipod Touch. I ran an update on my ITunes on my PC, and my IPOD will no longer connect to my itunes. Please help. If at all possible.
iTunes 11 works with all model iPods.

IPod touch will not work with USB 2.0 PCI Card?
I have a dual processor PowerMac G4 that has USB 2.0 via a PCI card. When I plug in the iPod nothing at all happens. I haven't read anything about PCI cards not being compatible with the touch. Is anyone else having this problem?
Just thought I'd add my 2 cents...I've got the same problem...I've had a Keyspan USB 2.0 5 port card in my Dual MDD G4 for years and it's worked fine. Well, until a few days ago when I tried updating some stuff on our iPods. It would initially start working then lose connection. Now nothing at all with 5 iPods. It won't even show up on the desktop under Disk Mode. I did the same and it works fine under the old stock USB 1.0 but slooooooowwww. Is this yet another problem with Leopard? I've searched the Keyspan site and they don't have any updated drivers. Guess I'll look for a Belkin as well...ugh!!! Leopard is horrible! First no printer drivers, then no iSub support, now this!

IPhone, iPod Touch will not work with Skullcandy Icon2, Icon 2
I pulled my Skullcandy Icon 2 's out for my ski trip and found that the mic and control had stopped working with my iPhone. Thinking that the Mic/Button had broke I went out and picked up a new pair, which also didn't work.
Both sets of head phones were tried on an iPhone 3g, iPod Touch 1st Gen. and iPod Nano 3rd gen. None of which would allow control of the devices in music mode or call answer.
To rule out a defective headset, I connected them to my friend's phone, a HTC Hero. The controls on the Icon 2 would play and pause any music program, including Pandora including controlling calls, (answer, mute and hang up).
I haven't found anything other then lint in the head phone jack to as a solution to this. (not a solution for me).
If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
Hardware Info:
Skullcandy Icon 2 Purchased 2009-2010
Skullcandy Icon 2 Purchased 12/2/2010
iPhone 3g Software version 4.2.1
iPod Touch Software version 3.1.3
iPod Nano 1.1.3Has this worked for you in the past? I am under the impression that your units are older and do not support this functionality. See <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3310>.
I'm interested in what you find out

New iPod Touch will not pair with New Resound Linx hearing aid
Greetings
Received a new pair of hearing aids aweek ago, Resound Linx. Very nice indeed.
Days after I purchase a New iPod Touch, down loaded all updates and the Resound Smart app.
Followed instructions to the letter but am unable to pair the hearing aids with the iPod.
Hearing aids work fine and have fresh batteries. Bluetooth turned on, iPod continues to search
but can not find hearing aids. Has anyone had this problem, can anyone offer any suggestions.
Many Thanks
