I get a error message saying that a song could not be copied to my Ipod

Hi Everyone, I get a error message from itunes saying a song could not be copied to my iPod because it could not be found but the song is still on my iPod. Has anyone else had this problem and what can I do to Fix it. I am using the latest version of iTunes.
I would appreciate any help,

If you click on your iPod's name in the source area of iTunes, and click on the "Music" tab, what syncing option are you currently set for?
If you're set for "Sync Music" with selected playlists in iTunes, be sure to double-check that the playlist(s) that are being synced to your iPod currenlty contain that song(s) that are having failure to sync to your iPod.
If that isn't the case, go to your iTunes library, and click on the song that isn't syncing to your iPod.
If there's no exclamation point next to it's name when selected, try playing the song and see if it plays; also, right-click on that song, click on "Get Info".
Check and see if the source of the song on your computer is correct or not. (i.e., see if there's even that song title in the "iTunes" folder, or if it is corrupt).
I hope that all makes sense.

  • I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer. Any ideas?

    I made the mistake of resetting my iPod to factory defaults. Now it will only partially sync to my music library. I continually get an error message saying that certain songs are not authorized for my computer, although they are in the iTunes library on the computer and will play. It's these songs that won't transfer to the iPod. I have deauthorized and re-authorized the computer but no joy. Any ideas?

    Hello there DesertRat71,
    I was thinking that some of the songs in your library may have been purchased under a different apple id. You have already done the first thing I would have done by de authorizing and re authorizing. To verify this, highlight one of the songs that will not sync over and use File>Get Info. Here is the help menu link for it if you need it help://bookmark='https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/11.0/help/index.html?localePa th=English.lproj#itns2937'
    In the Summary section there will be an Apple ID entry. If it shows something different than what you are currently using then I recommend signing into the Apple ID it shows and authorizing the computer for that one as well.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • HT1399 My little sister just finished buying a bunch of songs and when i synced my iPod a little window popped up saying that 19 songs could not be copied to my iPod. I WANT THE SONGS NOW HOW DO I GET THEM BACK!

    I want my songs back, i have paid for these songs I would like to listen to them on my iPod. It's that simple. I don't want to have to pay someone to fix my iPod over the phone. This has happened to me before and i really get frustrated when i can't. My little sister bought the songs using a itunes gift card. i plugged in my ipod nano gen. 4 into the CPU which is a Windows BTW, and after it had synced it would not allow me to play my music (on my ipod) Saying they could not be copied. there's 19 songs. The last time this happened it started with 2 songs unable to copy, then 19 songs unable to copy, THEN........78 songs! i don;t not want this to happen AGAIN! sooooooooooo.................HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

    How do I download the windows support software for my Mac? I am getting an error  message saying that the software is not available

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    I do not recommend you to download the Windows support software through Boot Camp Assistant.
    Instead, you can download the Windows support software for most Macs from the Apple website. Go to this website, look for your MacBook Pro model and the Windows version you want to install, and follow its steps.

  • HT201210 I get an error message saying that my firmware is not compatible with the update.  How do I resolve this?

    I am trying to download and install the newest OS update for my iPhone4.  The install fails and I get an error message saying that my firmware is incompatible.  What do I do to resolve this?

    Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
    Restart the PC first.
    If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
    Can you launch your iTunes now?

  • I am trying to upload pictures to website, but get an error message saying that server redirection is not suppoerted. What is this, and why does it happen? I've never had this problem before and it started after Firefox update yesterday.

    Trying to upload pictures to a website, but it doesn't work. After going thru the whole process, I get a message saying; the server attempted to redirect you. Server redirection is not supported. This only happened after I updated Firefox. Never had this problem before.

  • When I try to use the Vision Acquisitio​n vi, I get an error message saying that " The system did not receive a test packet from the camera."

    Error -1074360271 occurred at IMAQdx Start Acquisition.vi
    NI-IMAQdx: (Hex 0xBFF69031) The system did not receive a test packet from the camera. The packet size may be too large for the network configuration or a firewall may be enabled.

    Bruce Ammons wrote:
    Did you try disabling test packets?  I know Basler cameras have a "Enable Test Packets" setting buried in Advanced Network settings or something like that.  You have to change the setting in MAX to show all settings instead of just acquisition, then locate the setting.  I have been told regularly that the setting must be turned off for Basler cameras to work properly.  Perhaps your camera has the same setting and the same requirement.
    Bruce
    A very specific firmware revision for certain Basler cameras had an issue where the test packet would not be sent for certain packet sizes and certain specific conditions, causing a false report of a test packet failure when a normal acquisition would in fact succeed. However, this was fixed in later firmware revisions and I have never seen a similar issue on any other types of cameras. 
    Aside from this specific case, if a test packet fails, it generally means an acquisition will as well. Given that Pleora's software can acquire, we can rule out networking topology and hardware, assuming you are using the same packet size as the Pleora software is. The only other thing that would seem a likely candidate would be a software issue like a firewall or some other filter driver that is interefering with IMAQdx receiving the data.

    right click on the setup file

    if all fails still, run ccleaner, clean your pc of junk files, scan registry for errors and spyware while your at it.
    can you install another app? meaning will it install anything else or is it just itunes that wont install?
    are you logged in as an admin?

The is only one Firefox installed and it is not open. What does this mean and how do I fix 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.

  • I am trying to restore an older iPod Touch, but do not have the passcode.  I am getting an error message saying that I need to free up some space, but I cannot because I don't have the passcode and have never synced this device to my account.  Help..

    I am trying to restore an older iPod Touch, but do not have the passcode.  I am getting an error message saying that I need to free up some space, but I cannot because I don't have the passcode and have never synced this device to my account.  Help..

    If it is asking for the screen-lock passcode then:
    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.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    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:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    Otherwise follow varjak paw recommendation
