I'm loathed to ask the same question again about the ITunes library not syncing with my iPod but having just done a complete restore, ensuring the tracks are in AAC format.. There are still problems.. Apple are there with the tutorials..but no solvings!!!

I'm using iPod 4th Gen iOS 6.1.3 and an iMac with 11.3 .. All latest versions. I have 23.4gb music according to the file but when I attached the iPod the bar at the foot of the page says 18.3gb. Some tracks are missing. Most if not all have been ripped from cd's into iTunes which is creating AAC format for each track. Other tracks play fine, some show the song but not the Artist and vice versa.
I have tried dragging the tracks from the Mac library to the IPod music file..nothing. So I go to Safari, type the question in and read the same problems over.. Are Apple aware of their Tutorials without troubleshooting pages ? Do they care?
My Pioneer DDJ/T1 is set up with Traktor and only wants to work with iTunes.. So iTunes are edging themselves in everywhere for everything... But it's still not working as it should..
Anyone have any clues please... Tried most all the ideas so far...

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

Hi. During the process of updating my ipad to IOS 6 utilizing iTunes, I received the error #1602. I tried the update procedure again, this time itunes does not recognize the devise. The pad is displaying USB connecter to iTunes. Can anyone recomend a fix?
Thank you

There is only one fix now. The message on the screen means that you have to restore the iOS software on the iPad now. Read the part at the very end about using recovery mode.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software - Support - Apple
About the error code.....
Error 1600, 1601, 1602
Follow the steps listed above for Error 1604. This error may also be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
If needed.....
Additional Information
If your device is continually restarting, not responding, or showing the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar, place the device into recovery mode and try restoring again.

What's the correct way to get changes in my iTunes library to sync to my iPod

It's been a few years since I've used itunes, so please bear with me.
I'm trying to get my ipod setup but something seems weird. In the past, if I made changes to my itunes library, then plugged in my ipod, those changes would immediately sync. It's not doing that now. When I plug the ipod in, I click on the ipod symbol near the top-right to get to the connected ipod. If I click on "on this ipod" I can clearly see that the old files/metadata are still present. When I click the "sync" button down at the bottom (next to the storage bar) nothing happens. If I click on "Music" near the top (between Summary and Movies) there's a check-box next to "Sync Music" but when I click that it says "Are you sure you want to remove existing music, movies, and tv shows from this ipod and sync with this itunes library?". I don't want to have to wipe the thing clean and then re-write EVERYTHING again every time I want to make a change, that's crazy.
So what am I missing here? Is there some setting that would make it work the way it did in the past, automatically syncing changes as soon as I plug in the ipod? If not, what's the best way to get the changes to sync over without having to wipe the ipod clean every time? Does the "Sync Music" option I mentioned not actually remove everything, but just sync any changes that were made? That's the only thing I can come up with.

Because you are not syncing your music (you have Sync music unchecked).
If not, what's the best way to get the changes to sync over without having to wipe the ipod clean every time? Does the "Sync Music" option I mentioned not actually remove everything,
It shouldn't wipe everything but it will make the iPod match what you have selected in iTunes. So if it's on your iPod now and also in iTunes, it won't remove it then re-add it.
Is everything on your iPod actually in iTunes? If so, click away.
How do I get it to stay checked then? I've checked it and gone through the sync process, but every time I go back to that window, it's un-checked again, and I have to sync manually.
Ok, that's what I was hoping, it just syncs any changes. I've done it this way a couple times but couldn't tell for sure if it was just removing then re-adding evertying or if it was just syncing changes.

IPod corrupt error message when I connect my iPod to my new laptop. Old laptop broken so the only place I have my iTunes library stored is on my iPod. Is there a way I can retrieve this music or repair my iPod without resetting it?

Help would be appreciated I don't want to lose all of my music.

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

Multiple users on the same machine using a common iTunes Library

I'm running iTunes from my user profile in Vista, the songs are stores in a shared directory.
My wife recently purchased an iPhone, so I decided to setup her phone under her user profile in Vista, so she could use her contacts out of outlook, this meant I had to setup iTunes for her. All the outlook contacts sync with her phone (no issues), but when I point the music library to the directory where I stored the music I can't see the library.
I have searched under my user name and found the iTunes library.itl, this file in my user directory, not accessible when I wife is logged into her account.
Is there any way to have different user profiles on the same machine access the same music library in iTunes. So when I purchase music under my account and download it to the library, my wife's iTunes will also see the music, I'm okay if I have to do a manual sync, under her iTunes..

Move the \Music\iTunes\ folder to a Shared directory.
Hold Shift and launch iTunes.
Select *Choose library* and select the _iTunes library.itl_ file in the \iTunes\ folder in the Shared directory.
Quit iTunes then let yoru wife log in and hold Shift and launch iTunes.
Select *Choose library* and select the _iTunes library.itl_ file in the \iTunes\ folder in the Shared directory.

ITunes library not syncing on iPhone4 with iOS 7.0.4

Since the update to iOS 7.0.4, iTunes on my iPhone4 will not sync. It says it's syncing (I've tried syncing both wirelessly and with USB cable) but nothing changes. I've tried making a new playlist and moving songs, toggling things off and on, rebooting my MacBook Air, rebooting iTunes, and rebooting the phone, but it's not syncing. My iPad music library is syncing just fine since the iOS update so this seems to be a problem with the iPhone4.

I have this EXACT same problem and have since the latest IOS upgrade last week. No changes to the iTunes Library on a Windows 7 PC are syncing to the iPhone 4.
I've been able to get added songs to sync by UnChecking " Sync Music" in the Music tab, then hit Sync. That will wipe out the music on the iPhone. THEN , recheck the Sync Music and Sync again.
HOWEVER
The Sync is ignoring what has been "checked" in the iTunes library on the PC. It will only Sync what has been selected in the Sync options when the iPhone has been connected and the sync function launched.
Apple ??? Are you listening ???

Some of the albums in the Beatles package I downloaded from itunes will not sync with my iPhone 5. Some songs won't play. They did sync to my iPad and they all play on my iPad. What can I do? I've already deleted all songs from the iPhone and re-synced.

I downloaded the entire Beatles collection from iTunes in 2011. Some songs skip and won't play. Some albums won't sync to the phone but they sync to my iPad. I've deleted the entire music library from my iPhone, shut the phone down, turned the phone on and synced again to add the music but now 2 albums won't even sync (Rubber Soul and Revolver). I've tried dragging the songs to the iPhone, no luck. Any thoughts?

Sounds like you may need to re-download the entire albums from iTunes. See this KB article for how to download past purchases: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.
I'd suggest doing it one album at a time. Delete one, download it from your purchase histor, then the next, etc.

I just recently update itunes and when I did I can no longer sync any of my Audible books. The books on my ipod do not show up in itunes and the one book I uploaded to itunes will not go to my ipod.

This is the 3rd issue I have had with Apple products in the last 6 months. I begininng to wonder if this is the beginning of the end:(

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Is there other way which I can erase my iPad. Because the regular way shows that "There was a problem deregistering this iPad with iCloud."

If you want to wipe your iPad back to new in box, i.e., ready to be set up as a new device.
1. Turn off Find My iPhone.
2. Then go to settings > general > erase > erase all content and data
You'll have to confirm you really want to do this, but once it's complete, the iPad will be back to way it was when you took it out of the box for the first time.
And BTW., it wasn't necessary to post this question twice in two separate threads.
