    Can you check the health of your iPod Hardisk, by doing the iPod Disk Diagnostics as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.

    - Transfer iTuns purchases:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program lke one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPOd under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. That should also get you the update.
    - If in the USA, you can also redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I lost a lot of tracks while syncing my ipod touch with iTunes. I have managed to get some of them back with a free download, but iTunes will not let me dowload whole albums which I have paid for. It does recognise that they have been purchased. What do n

    As I've already said to get this far: I have lost a lot of tracks while syncing my iPod Touch with iTunes. I have managed to get free downloads of some of the single tracks, but when I try to download entire albums the system informs me that I have already purchased them and a pop-up window informs me I can get them back from my "Purchased" file. I would not be trying to dowload them again if they were anywhere on the iPod, would I? The other problem seems to be that with single tracks I don't know before I hit the purchase button if I have picked it from the right album and I have had to pay for it again.
    I feel that I have been totally ripped off by iTunes and, apart from ranting on this forum, I don't seem to be able to let my feelings known. It's like a guy from my local record store coming round and nicking my albums and telling me that it's tough!
    The point here is folks, that it was syncing two Apple sites which caused the loss of these tracks and from what I've read elsewhere this is a regular fault. And please don't tell me that it's my fault for having a pc. Apple shouldn't sell a product for pc, when it doesn't work on pc!

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

    Hello brainiac08
    Typically that error occurs because of a backup issue. Check out the article below to resolve it.

  • I cant sync my iPod touch / What does setting up as new iPod do?

    The other day, I first synced my iPod touch to itunes, didnt take very long. Then I tried syncing a CD and when it was half way through I tried to sync the songs already downloaded onto my ipod, but didnt see how. And today, I tried connecting my ipod, and it came up with 2 options: Restore from the backup, or set up as a new iPod. I wasnt sure whether the 2nd option would mean It would delete everything, so I thought of something else which was choosing the Sync to iTunes (what I did when I first synced my ipod) on the general page of my iPod, thus creating a new backup data. Though it still wanted me to choose from the 2 options so I seleted the new backup. The process took about 10 minutes - Which is a **** of a long time since I only wanted to sync some music onto my ipod I had already synced to this computer. After this, nothing changed. It still hadn't been connected to iTunes. This has really ****** me off. What will setting it up as a new iPod do? Will it delete everything or will it connect to iTunes as it is and enable me to sync music to my iPod?

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.
    No content is affected by this procedure.

  • CANT SYNC MY IPOD TOUCH SINCE I JOINED MATCH

    SINCE I SUBSCRIBED TO THE CLOUD I CANT SYNC MY IPOD TOUCH TO MY COMPUTER. I ALSO CANNOT PLAY SONGS IF NOT CONNECTED TO WIFI. HELP!

    Hi,
    Manual syncing of music in tunes match is not possible. All you music that has been matched, uploaded or purchased is available on your iPod touch.
    As the music is in the cloud you can only listen to it when you have a wifi connection. You can pre-download tracks whilst you have a connection.
    If you want to manually sync specific tracks or playlist, you can turn off match to manually sync and then turn back on match to allow you to access other tracks whilst you have a wifi connection.

  • I am not able to sync my ipod touch with itunes.

    Hi,
    Whenever i try to sync my ipod touch with itunes. I get the an error "The ipod could not be synced because the sync session failed to start".
    The sync process could not be started.
    I am facing these issues from the day when i upgraded my ipod touch to ios 5.0.1
    itunes version on my PC: 10.5.1.42
    Operating system: Windows XP SP2
    Please let me know how can i overcome this problem.

    Take the old hard drive and try one of the data recovery programs like Data Rescue 3 and others.
    Apple didn't in the past support re download of purchased material.
    And there are so many ways to backup data, clone a drive, archive, from the free to the built-in to the more expensive.
    I keep the OS on one drive, media files and data on another drive, and a good 1.5TB drive today costs $109. Paragon has backup, clone (makes a full boot drive, not an 'image' such as Acronis or Ghost) so you can use it almost like a daily or weekly mirror.
    Depends on the software and data lost and cost of recovery programs and services, but it may be possible. Put the drive in a USB case perhaps and a new drive to recover the files to.

  • HT4623 I'm having issues syncing my iPod touch to iTunes

    I'm having issues syncing my iPod touch to iTunes. When i connect the iPod to iTunes, a message pops up saying "iTunes could not connect to 'iPod Touch'  because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter a passcode on the iPod before it can be used with iTunes." Yet when I unlock the device, the only screen available to me it the picture of a USB and an arrow pointing to iTunes so there is no way for me to enter a passcode. I tried going into "My Computer" to view the files of the iPod, if i could possibly reset the iPod to its factory settings yet the connected iPod is not present. Is there any way to possibly reset this iPod or is there a software problem?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    For how to restore:

    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 iTunes purchases by:

  • I want to sync my ipod touch on itunes but it is telling me that i can only open it on one, what can i do so i won't have to delete anything and still be able to sync in?

    my computer got all messed up so now i am using a different user on the computer to use it. iTunes isn't letting me sync my ipod touch 4g. It keeps on saying "This ipod is synced with another iTunes library. An iPOd can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time." I don't think i want to try the erase and sync method because i think it will delete everything. Is there anyway that i can sync my ipod into this iTunes and not have everything deleted?

    No.
    Use your backup copy of  your computer to put everything back.
