I have music on my iPod but it won't play

Ok I put the music on my iPod and the music shows up fine but when I go to listen to it. it acts like it will play but it just skips to the next track and goes back to my songlist. It won't even try to play my music.

Try a Reset...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...

  • HT203167 I have music on my ipod but this has been lost in my iTunes library - how do I recover it?

    Trying to sync ipod content and my new iphone conent I find that my ipod music conent is no longer in my itunes library. How can I recover it?

    Hi roamingnome - thanks for your reply. The content is still all on the iPod and I can find it in an old iTunes library but it won't sync to this account. All purchased on the same account but only 17 of 288 songs will sync?
    I can reload the old library, but this will only show in itunes when my husband books into his account and then still don't sync to his iphone. It seems that itunes is a bit like me - confused, so any advice gratefully received!
    He has set up home sharing - could this be affecting it, he hasn't a clue either.
    Thank you.

  • I have iRadio on my iPhone but it won't play.

    I downloaded the iOS7 update specifically because I wanted iRadio on my iPhone 4. The app comes up but when I select a radio station it won't play the music. I hit the play button and it immediately reverts back to the pause button. I've tried moving to a different song but it still doesn't work. I know iRadio works because I have it on my laptop and it's synced with the iRadio on my iPhone so the radio station I created is there. It just won't play anything on the iPhone.

    I am using the verizon LTE network. Yeah i turned it off and on again, that's when i found that the iradio option is available anymore in itunes

  • I have an ipad and an iPod and a Dell Desktop PC. I have music on my iPod but the old computer I had my music library on is broken. Can I transfer from my iPod to my PC?

    I have an iPod, an ipad and a Dell PC. My old PC which had my music library on, has broken. How do I transfer the contents of my ipod on to my new computer?

    The iPad is not a computer, it cannot replace one, and it cannot sync music or media to other devices.
    You need to keep a computer around if you want  to sync ther Classic and Nano. It may also be useful if you ever need to backup the iPad in case a restore is necessarry.

    From speaker?

    Does the iPod make any sounds?
    Try:
    - 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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I downloaded some music for my ipod but it doesnt play!

    I downloaded some music for my iPod but it doesn't play. After I put it on my iPod it went gray and I couldnt play it, how do I get it to play/work?

    Did you purchase it form iTunes?
    Did you redownload it from iTunes using:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Did yu sync it to your iPod from your iTunes library on your computer? If yes, does it play OK in iTunes on the computer?
    Is it an iTunes purchase?

  • I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work?

    I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work? I know that my iPod should take music videos because there is a pre-made playlist called "Music videos". Can anyone help me please????

    You can sync the music videos, but they won't play on your 6G Nano, because it does not support video playback. Sorry.

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

  • I recently bought a new computer, and downloaded new music.. I want to sync my new music into my  ipod but it wont le me.. if i sync it will erase all my music and if i press okay it says it cant because my ipod is connected to another itunes..

    i recently bought a new computer and installed itunes and downloaded music already... I want to sync my new music into my ipod but it wont let me it says my ipod is linked to another itunes library, so If i want to go ahead with the process it says it will erase all my movies, photos, apps ect.. I press okay then it says about another itunes library If i want to sync my ipod i have to "erase and sync" if i go ahead with this will it erase all my photos?? All im worried about are my pictures.... if i do this will it erase my pictures... so far i havent been able to put the recently added music to my ipod... i tried it my husbands iphone and synced it since he has no music or videos... and it had the autofill option so i did this... and it worked.. why will it not work on my ipod..

    You can only sync everything with your one syncing computer/iTunes library. Yu can:
    - Make this your syncing computer by:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    - Use the manual method to copy music and videos from any computer/iTunes library to the iPod. See the manual method included here:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
