I cant connect my iPod 3g anymore...

I've recently had to get my computer reimaged, and since I have gotten it back I have not been able to authorize my iPod to it.
I really dont want to loose all of the files on my iPod, or all of the playlists.
I have re-authorized my apple ID to the computer, I've searched help forums, and I've tried as hard as possible. I can't find a solution at this very moment.
Can someone please help me?

What do you mean by not working?
- To transfer iTunes purches to the computer see:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Ther ae many third-party programs that will transfer non-iTunes purchased music to the computer.  I do not know if then do playlist. Here are some.
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- There are some good paid programs like TouchCopy and PhoneView that do more.
- Once everthing is on the cmputer, you neect to connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices iTunes and select Back Up.
- Restioe the iPod from that backup, The retains app data nd othe info on the iPod.

  • While restoring my iPod touch 4G (iOS 6.1.2), after the "extracting software" step, iTunes says that it cant connect to iPod server. Now my iPod is in recovery mode and I can't do anything. Please Help.

    I have Windows 7 installed with the LATEST iTunes software.
    I get this message while restoring and now my iPod is in restore mode. When I try to restore it fails after this message pops up. Please tell me a fix to it.
    1) I've checked my internet connection. All the sites work perfectly.
    2) I've tried it after disabling the windows firewall as well as my antivirus.
    3) I've also tried changes with the "hosts" file in Windows>System32>Driveres>etc.
    NO HELP WHATSOEVER.
    PLEASE HELP.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - Anything else here

  • Question about Linksys G Wireless Router and i cant connect my iPod Touch and PSP to it.?

    I just got a new Wireless router and it works fine.The model number is WRT54G2. The internet is working and I can go on my xbox live and things like that. The only problem is that my iPod touch and things and my PSP can detect the connection but are unable to join it. Why is this. It was working fine on my previous router. Is there some security thing I have to take off? How do i do this? Thanks in advance

    I tried this and it went to a redish gray page that said "401 Unauthorized Authorization required" Help please?
    It means you entered the wrong password or username, try some other passwords you might have used if the default admin doesn't work.

    - Try another cable.

  • Cant open ipod bc forgot password so disabled then cant connect to itunes

    i forgot my ipod password and now its disabled and says to connect to itunes and i did then it says cant connect to ipod bc its locked what do i do

    You should not be prompted for your iPhone's passcode lock when connecting your iPhone to iTunes on the computer you normally sync your iPhone with. This should occur when connecting your iPhone to Tunes on a computer you've never syncing your iPhone with.
    If you don't remember the passcode, try placing your iPhone into recovery mode. If this is successful, this will require restoring your iPhone with iTunes.

  • Itunes messes with my libraries and songs when connected with ipod.

    On my itunes when i move songs around to other libraires and such it wont add them to the library when it downloads to the ipod. When i make my libraires on the ipod and i connect my ipod to itunes it deletes everything i have made on the ipod and reverts back to the libraries on itunes. Basically if i want my ipod libraries set up the way i want i cant connect my ipod to itunes anymore. I also have a problem with itunes not being able to locate music files in my library folders after i move a few songs around or add mor songs or whatever. How do i get my itunes to leave the libraires the way i make them and not keep songs from transfering over to the ipod. Its actually ******* me off. its not that the songs arnt playable they just keep getting removed on their own. how can i set up my music files in a folder where itunes will resort to and not have any problems locating the files.

    For anyone who hits this thread: Hit view, then "hide music in the cloud." Your libraries will return to how you have built them.
    Kelly, your music is still probably on your hard drive. The iCloud is just a cute techy way of saying that you have online access to things you've purchased from apple... just wait until they make it so that you ONLY have online access to your purchases, and nothing ever comes "off" the cloud for you to tangibly own.
    Folks, this is a smoke and mirrors gimmick to make you buy-in to the itunes store. Let Apple manage, deliver, and DECIDE all the content that you will see. It's at least one degree more insiduous than corporate radio.
    Kudos on the crisp interface and larger album cover displays, but...
    Apple cannot find cover art for 1/3 of the library that I have built. That is because Apple does not carry that music. Apple will never host music from ancient vinyl that I have remastered, Apple will never host the shows of obscure electronica djs or the local bluegrass bands that put out EPs in the western US in the 80s. If you restrict your music experience to a single venue, you are not only missing out, but you are supporting an economic model which quashes music that does "not meet industry standards." Have fun with iTunes 11 kids.
