It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive. I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread. He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

If necessary, post the resultings numbers and we can verify what the next steps to take.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased from iTunes) since the update. Have restarted, rebooted etc. and it is worse than before. Help! Spent a lot of money on these and they won't play properly.

I am still having problems with my music videos freezing (all purchased on iTunes) since the update. The first day of the update, no problems...played 6 hours of music videos and no freezing. Today...every single video froze!!! So frustrating! I rebooted, restarted, powered down and no help. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

I don't know how to do this without using a mouse point.
This may help, http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000542.htm
As for question #2, you call tell how iTunes is sorting songs by the up or down arrow next to a header name.
Even the original order that the songs were entered or date added or last played can be sorted.
Much easier with a mouse or touch pad.

When i updated itunes I lost all my music, I was able to retrieve it from my previous version, but now a artists have all of their songs list under one unknown cd. How can I seperate these cds with the correct songs included?

When I updated itunes I lost all of my music, I was able to retrieve it from a previous itunes library, but now some artists have all of their songs listed under one "unknown album." Is there a way to separate these songs back into the correct albums? Also, is there a way to make songs that have a featured guest just show up with the rest of the album instead of making a whole new spot for it? Thanks!

" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

Hi all - any idea how to download songs from an old AOL iTunes account - have updated to Apple ID which is fine for new songs but didn't realise this wouldn't include the old songs. Have a 1st gen ipod with the original purchases on if that helps

....... is there a way for me to get my old music library (which was controlled by my dad's apple ID) onto my new mac, but from that point on, start using my own apple ID for purchases?........
Yes, once the content is in iTunes on your computer, just click it to play and authorise your computer to play it by entering your Dad's ID and password.
Log into your own account and start purchasing your own content which will then be added to the existing content.

Erase the internal drive and install a fresh OS.

HT204053 Will I lose my songs in Itunes when I update to 10.6

No, but you should always have a backup just in case something goes wrong, whether or not you are updating anything.

When I update iTunes, it "loses" all my songs stored in a non-default location. How to prevent?

I store my music library on an external hard drive. Whenever I update iTunes, it "loses" all my songs. When the iTunes library updates, all my tracks get little exclamation points next to them because they are not in the default (C:\my music\itunes music) location. I have my ways of fixing this...but they are a pain. Is there a way to have my music files not get lost when I update iTunes?
Thanks,
Brett

Hi dklowther,
iCloud only houses access to Music purchased through iTunes. Any music you put on your iPhone from CDs or other sources would only be on your phone and in your iTunes library that you used to sync the songs to your iPhone. You need to move the contents of your iTunes library from your old computer to your new one....
Cheers,
GB

When I create a new project in iMovie and drop clips into it, it plays the first one and then quits right near the end of the second clip. I have re-started my computer, tried a new project etc, and no luck, does anyone know how to fix this issue?

This is a part of the larger MacBook Pro connectivity issue. There are several related threads dealing with the MBP's networking problems. If your unit is suffering from this type of difficulty, good luck ... (or a long ethernet cable)
(PS Everybody please make noise on this one so apple comes up with a solution.)

The itunes on My new iPad keeps going to podcasts and Not to music or videos

The itunes on My new iPad keeps going to podcasts and Not to music or videos?

I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

I have an iPhone 5. It says I have 537 songs on it but every song shows the cloud icon. I have gone through every suggested step I've googled and deleted songs but settings still shows them. When it's plugged into my mac itunes shows it only has 42 songs.

Hi ellafromva,
From your description, it sounds like you may have iTunes Match activated; you may find the following article helpful:

Having problems importing and viewing any kind of video file in iTunes 7

I just cannot seem to be able to do this. I have tried dragging and dropping files into iTues and importing files and whole folders of videos but nothing happens. Do video files have to be Quicktime format to be viewed in iTunes and if so does Quicktime Pro have a tool that converts other file formats to be viewed in Quicktime?
I would be really grateful if anyone can help with this.

Songs show as okay but become corrupted when played on iTunes?

I'm working with my 64gb iPod Touch 5th Generation.
My family has been known to have problems with computers and therefore iTunes so we decided to take action about a year ago. When we would decide to upload a CD to iTunes, we would download it on the hard drive of our computer then drag it on to a flash drive then if we had to transfer our iTunes to another computer we wouldn't have to download that CD again; we could just put in the flash drive and just 'Add File to Library'. Yesterday, I put some more CDs on the flash drives and today I sat down at 11:00 expecting to be done adding them to the library by one including a lunch break. I was there until four.
I had to wait for almost all of the music files to convert to the correct file format so that took a lot of time. My original plan was to add every song on the flash drives then go back through each artist and delete the corrupted songs (the ones with the exclamation mark [!]) and the duplicates. As I went through after I finished adding them all, I realized that songs that were problem-free last time were now corrupted. Another thing that I noticed which stressed me out the most was the fact that even when a song did not have an exclamation mark, it could still be corrupted. I found that out when trying to play a song and it (the exclamation mark) just popped up next to it with the usual 'Find the location of the track' message. I then realized that I would have to 'play' (double-click) EVERY. SINGLE. SONG. If I wanted to get rid of every unneccessary song. I had 2300 songs and the length of that project just drew the line for me. I figured I would come one here and try to find a solution but I couldn't find a discussion with the same problem.
So here is my official question: How do I prevent the not-corrupted songs from getting corrupted?
Please note that the songs that actually transferred when I sync'd it were a mix of every song I had purchased, some songs that had survived from the last sync, and some new songs from the flash drives.
I am working with Windows XP.
Thank you in advance for the ideas and if at all possible, I would love to avoid having to restart my iPod. My iTunes is 11.0.1.12.

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?
Next try posting in the iTunes forum

Updated to 7.6.1.9 and now MOST songs cannot find their path!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm about ready to scream. I updated iTunes to the 7.6.1.9 version and now when I tried to synch my iPod it gave me a message that stated it cannot find some songs.
When I look at my iTunes it has and exclamation point next to the MAJORITY of my 5,000 songs! I'm not going to sit and find the song path for these. What the heck happened???????????????
Also, I downloaded two new games before I tried to synch my iPod and it also says it cannot find the games. When I go into the games it shows the correct path!? How come it cannot find it, or how do I force it to find that path?

Ok, I checked several forums and websites. After freaking out thinking I would have to import all of my songs again from cd's I haven't seen in years - I found my songs in my iTunes folder on my hard drive. I highlighted the folder with the songs I needed and dragged it into my open iTunes library. The songs copied over and play now. The bad news is, it made duplicates of the songs. So I have to delete all of the corrupted files with the exclamation points next to them. (to make it a little easier, I went to VIEW > show duplicates. By holding CTRL and selecting each of the corrupted files, you can right-click and delete several at once. Good luck.

Title (Music Video) still renders "over black" when unselected

Hello I have an MPEG-4 video of about 5 minutes length in wide screen ratio. I am trying to add a Music Video type title to the beginning of the video. I want it to overlay and not do it over black. I uncheck and the preview shows it as it should as an overlay. But when I render it and play it back, it is rendered as over-black!
Until I unmuxed the audio as a separate track the audio for the title part would not play until after the title sequence was complete.
Is it something to do with the fact that I'm running 10.5.1? Or is it my source video that is not compatible with the adding of the title?
This is extremely urgent that I get this to work, so please help me!!!!!
