I have an iPod Classic 160GB and now it will not sync. I have restored to factory settings multiple times. It freezes during sync, gives -50 error code and says video is not supported on iPod. Please help.

This is the iPod touch forum. I requested the moderators to move your post to the iPod classic forum.

My phone had to be replaced. I backed up to the cloud and when I got home I thought it would upload to my phone, but it didn't. I restored to previous backup on computer and now that's wrong. Can I restore to factory settings/restore to my cloud?

Is back up and sync the same thing?

Is back up and sync the same thing?
No. Syncing transfers iTunes content to your devices. Backing up stores all data (minus iTunes content) that you have on your phone, and can be loaded onto a different device or reloaded onto an existing device.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Let the device power down and back up. Go through the setup screen and DO NOT select restore from iTunes backup. Instead, choose iCloud backup, sign in with your Apple ID and select the correct backup.

I am not able to Sync. My iPOD classic 80Gb. It tells that as iTunes can not read the contents-restore to factory settings- after restoring – it tells that it can not be restore bcause there are files that are used by other application. I am having Widows

Try disabilng the Enable Disk Use option from under the iPod's Summary tab, applying the changes, and seeing if that helps.
Otherwise, temporarily disabling any antivirus, security, firewall, or file indexing software that may be running on your system and then try restoring your iPod again.

Hi,
One of my ex-colleagues has installed a NI-DAQ 6.5 in our system. [And I do not see any other naitional instruments card in the CPU of the computer, may be he removed it] I deleted the account and all his files in the system. When I am trying to install version8.0, its not getting installed and giving me a message that I should uninstall the previous version by going to Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
I tried doing that, but the "Change/Remove" button does not seem to work...[There is no response and so unable to install the new version...]
Any idea how can this problem be solved?
It is a windowsXP operating system with SP2 installed on a machine with P4 processor.
Thanks

Hey nataliexcupcakes,
If your iPhone isn't appearing under Devices in iTunes after you connect it, and it can't be restored, you'll want to follow along with this article for a resolution:

Daughter IPOD Touch 4th lost all music from itunes, Itunes suggested to restore to factory settings. Have done so last few days, all showing 20 hours to restore then times out and starts back to 20 hours again. Will not sync at all. HELP

IPOD TOUCH(4th gen) MUSIC DISPLAY has wiped out all my music. The music I have is all still on ITUNES but will NOT SYNC. When attempted a displayes message appeared- Cannot read contents of IPOD (my IPOD name), go to Summary tab to Restore to factory settings. When I click OK it takes me to a CLICK on RESTORE OPTION, which I did. Then it explains that I will lose all APPS, etc.. to restore. I clicked OK again and it shows my IPOD is Downloading Software Update. The only thing being it has done this for 3 days now. It starts by stating will take 20 hours, goes down to 12 or 10 and prompts OUT and when I redo the thing again it starts back up at 20 hours but continually times out. *Also, in case it matters ,the SYNC option on my IPOD in ITUNES is Highlighted as to where I cannot use that option. Everytime I start it back up I get the same message (Cannot read contents of IPOD, go to Summary Tab,etc..) Help.

My iPad 1 is not responding. I restored to factory settings and when it says to hook up to I tunes it still won't work. I have restarted I tunes and uninstalled and installed and still not working. Help!!!!

I restored to factory settings and when it says to hook up to I tunes it still won't work. I have restarted I tunes and uninstalled and installed and still not working. Help!!!! Before I reset it it would say not charging but it was still charging. This could be a hardware problem with the I pad.

Explain exactly what "it won't work" means. The iPad does not respond at all? Does it turnn on? It is not recognized in iTunes when you connect it to your computer?

So my daughter set a password to lock her ipod and now she can't remember it. I tried to restore to factory settings but it still wants a password. I tried 0000 and that doesn't work. Any ideas what to do to?

From this Apple support document: iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the headingBlocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.

ITunes requires iPod restored to factory settings every time I plug it in

I'm using iTunes 10.1.2 with an iPod Classic 120GB - since I upgraded to iTunes 10.1.1 every time I plug my iPod into the USB port and open iTunes I get a message saying the iPod cannot be read and to restore it to factory settings. If I then do this and copy all music back onto it, next time I plug it in I get the same message.
It seems to be iTunes that is doing this. My iPod works absolutely fine until I have to plug it in to charge or add music to it. Even if I cancel and don't restore to factory settings, after ejecting my iPod it will then say it has No Music on it. All the files are still there though.

Pretty much anyone using an iPod Classic with iTunes 9 or 901 is screwed in a similar manner. Read around these threads and you'll see man. Sorry, no word from Apple yet on what's going on.
Looks like their ''upgrade" to version 9 may actually be damaging hardware, as hard as that seems to believe.

My IPOD Classic 160GB is now not recognized by iTunes and will not sync

I have a 160GB IPOD Classic that now will not sync with iTunes. Both the iPod and iTunes have up to date software versions and I am connecting thru a MAcBook Pro running OS X 10.10.2. I have synced this iPod i the past with no problems and now it does not appear in the iTunes source list.
I have tried the rest options that the Troubleshooting guide suggested and now at a loss for the next step.

This is a problem caused by 10.10.2, only way to fix it at the moment is to revert to 10.10.1.
Quite a few threads on it on other sites and only that one solution. Make sure you raise a feedback to apple though.

My child was on my mac and now I can't find my dock. I went to the apple menue then to system prefrences but "dock" isn't an option for me to use. Please help!

My child was on my computer and now my dock doesn't display on my screen. I checked the resources for help and it hasn't worked for me. It says to go to the apple menu, and click on the dock display. However, the "dock" isn't an option on my dropdown list. Please help!

What options are selected and deselected if you go to System Preferences and Dock?
1. click the apple logo
2. click System Preferences
3. click Dock
What's there?
It's possible your child just messed around with these settings and moved the dock to the left or right and triggered auto-hide and so forth

Error code 5103 "Unable to Play" with rental movies! Please help!!

I have a PC with Windows 7. iTunes 10.5.2. I purchased 2 rental movies and have downloaded them a few times now. But when I press "Play" I get the error code 5103 - Unable to Play. This has been going on for 2 weeks.
Please help!!!!

All it says is to download the lasted vers in iTunes which I already have.
That's not true. It goes on to say:
"If you have the most recent version and are still unable to download your rental, you may be able to resolve your issue by removing the "SC Info" folder. To do so, follow these steps:"
... and then gives links to instructions on how to do so for your particular operating system. So best to proceed with the instructions for your operating system.
