Having problem syncing iPod with iTune

I have never come across this problem before but I have the 80GB iPod and I tried to update and sync it and iTunes does not have the sync option available. It is grayed out and it asks me to "Transfer purchases from iPod". I don't have any purchases to transfer or anything and even when I do click on it nothing happens. At this point, I can't sync my iPod or add any new songs. What should I do? Any suggestions?

Hi i am having the same problem have you sorted it yet ive go inand reset the deve manager reinstalled at my wits end and i am going away tommorow with no internet for 3-6 weeks so it will probably have to wait until im home again cheers sb2432

HT1351 Am having problems syncing iPod classic 160gb to iTunes within Windows 8. Can you help?

I bought my iPod Classic 160GB from new in April 2012. For several months, I ran it through an older HP laptop running Windows XP home edition (service pack 3 I think?). I did however, use a Toshiba external hard drive to store all CDs/podcasts/photos etc. All worked very well and I put a fair amount of music (via CDs and podcasts) on the iPod via iTunes. All worked successfully. I changed computer earlier this year - another HP laptop but now running Windows 8. I've downloaded the up to date edition of iTunes AND have also transferred all existing material/files from the same Toshiba external hard drive to the iTunes in my new computer. (think I did this correctly?) So far, so good. I have placed some more music on the external hard drive and into iTunes and wanted to sync with my iPod. I connect iPod to the computer. It's recognised in iTunes as the window comes up showing iPod's serial number and settings etc etc. The iPod screen shows 'sync' and the top of screen in iTunes also shows 'syncing' however, after a few seconds, this stops and the iPod screen shows 'OK to disconnect' without having transferred any of the new music onto the iPod. Although all the existing music remains on the iPod (the stuff that was there before), the copule of new CDs hasn't been transferred over. Can anyone help me solve this problem? I hear that there are some problems at the moment syncing iPods within Windows 8. Anybody else had this problem? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello hindzee,
The acticle below goes over how to sync content to iPod Classics. The section titled "Syncing automatically" will most likely be the most helpful protion of that article for you.

Problem syncing ipod and itunes on new computer

I just got a MacBook Pro from my dad. I plugged my iPod into the new computer and replaced his library on the computer with mine. Now, every time I purchase new songs on iTunes on the computer and then sync my iPod, the purchased songs don't sync on the iPod. It says it's syncing, but the new songs aren't on the ipod. I also have my entire iTunes library still on my old PC (which I still have). What do I need to do to ensure my library is up to date on my MacBook and that the newly purchased songs (on the mac) will sync to my iPod?

Hi!
It sounds like the songs might have been purchased under your dad's account and therefore won't sync to your library. The iTunes application itself can have many different users, each having their own account. If you have your own home drive and set up your library there, but opened iTunes with your Dad's account set up, the application would not have known to change users on its own.
I would double check to see under whose account the songs were purchased.

Is anyone else having problems syncing iPod after latest iTunes upgrade?

My iPod will not sync after the iTunes 10.4 upgrade - first it tries to reload every song in my library, then it quits and says 'cannot copy due to duplicate file name' and this is while my iPod colored data bar says all the stuff is still there?

It gets worse! I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and am trying to synch a Mac Book, MacBook Pro, iphone 4s, and two iPads via iCloud. I have got a colassal unadulterated mess!
I have now seen as many as 10 duplicates in my various address books and on the web version of icloud. I tried manually deleting entries from the web version of icloud and somehow lost my wife's contact info.
I have several email accounts and contact lists I am trying to synch, My .mac and .me accounts, a gmail account, a yahoo account, a commercial account. I also specified twitter and am trying to add facebook. I also have an MS/Outlook address book on my Mac's that I am trying to synch up.
The way that icloud is handing contacts is just a total disaster. I've been an IT guy and worked with computers for over 40 years and I'm going nuts trying to figure out the logic of what the heck is going on.
I see a disasterous result of merging data into contacts. It appears that records that did not match were merged and I have data from multiple contacts in the same record.
As I said, i have as many as 10 (or more) duplicates in the address book, and in some cases I lost entries such as my wife's!.
What a freaking MESS!

What happens when you try to sync?
Does any media 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?

HT1386 having problems sync my ipod touch saying error (-81) does anybody know what to do

having problems sync my ipod touch to my itunes on windows xp

I have no idea. It is not listed in any App articles and a Google search did not even find a hit for the error number.
All I can suggest is:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

I'm having problems with iPhoto and the facebook set-up. Every time I attempt to do so it says an error has occured and try again later. I have not seen a solution posted. Therefore, how does one contact Apple to solve the problem? I'm new to the world of iMac but I find it a bit frustrating trying to solve basic issues/problems:(

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Problem Syncing iPod tough 3gs

Hi. I'm having problems syncing my ipod touch 3gs. When I connect into itunes, my ipod is recognised but my app window is greyed out. What's happening here? I've restored my ipod a few times to get it to work again but then I keep getting this problem. I'm fed up of aiting 2 hours for my ipod to be restored each time I connect to itunes

Yes it is - and I'm using the same login. Have more than one ipod touch - is that what's causing the problem? It's not happened before.

I am having problems syncing my ipad2 with my outlook 2010. Any suggestions

I am having problems syncing my ipad2 with my outlook 2010. I went to ATT& T store and they recommended airplane mode when syncing. It did not sync Outlook to my ipad 2. Any suggestions?

You haven't purchased apps with multiple Apple ID's have you? If you have, you can only sync with one Apple ID in the iTunes library at a time. Whichever ID you are signed into on the computer and the iPad would determine which apps would sync.
Have all of your apps been transferred into iTunes for your iPad?

Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu.

I am having problems syncing my iPad 2 with iTunes. Whenever I click "sync" or "apply," the sync begins. As soon as it gets to step 3 (in this particular case "determining apps to sync") it immediately stops syncing. What's the deal here?
