I have a new ipod touch, 32GB, 4th gen. I tried to sync the 2,250 songs I have in itunes to the ipod, but it says I don't have enough space. This ipod is supposed to hold up to 7000 songs. I haven't put photos or anything else in this ipod. What am I missing?
What is the format of your songs?

HT1351 has anyone had trouble dragging a playlist onto the Ipod icon?

Has anyone had trouble dragging a playlist onto the Ipod icon when syncing manually?

Stop whining and you're much more likely to get help.
Managing content on the iOS device has not changed in any way with the new version of iTunes.
It is still possible to "drag and drop" content onto the device, my personal opinion is that this is a silly way of managing content.
Simply select the content desired to sync to the device and synce.
IF you really want to "drag and drop" content, then Manually manage content on the device must be select from the summary tab for the device. Then drag and drop content all you desire. This may require having the sidebar displayed. To display the sidebar, type Cntrl + S.

How do you remove a playlist from the iPod but not the library

How do you remove a playlist from the IPod but not the library?

If it was originally on the camera roll try this: take another unimportant photo for test purposes, copy it to any special folder you have created within Photos, connect your iPad to your computer, locate it as any other external device, and most likely that Photos folder will be the only thing that will show up, locate the photo, delete it and then sync your iPad.
If the test photo is gone from the camera roll but still in another folder within the app then you know that the system works so go ahead with the process. I understand that there are other photo apps which might let you achieve your goal much quicker.
Hope thi helps.

Why can I sync some iTunes playlists to the iPod but some other ones don't?

Why can I sync some iTunes playlists to the iPod but some other ones don't? This is unusual - I wonder if the iPod is working correctly but some setting is wrong. Thanks

Connect your iPod to your computer and when it appears in the Source list click on it to show the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and check that your settings are "Sync Music - All songs and playlists" and not "Sync Music - Selected playlists"

Not good
Error (-1)
Try on another computer
Also see:
iOS: If you can't back up or restore from a backup in iTunes
Then see:
-1 error
-1 error too
If still problem that means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

When I try to add music or audiobook to Ipod I get error code 0x8007045d- what's wrong?

Error code 0x8007045D comes up when I try to add songs or audiobooks to my ipod- any suggestions as to what's wrong?

The error message is " Attempting to copy to the disk 'Mike's IPOD' failed. The disk could not be read from or written to."
I am in "manually transfer music" mode on the IPOD. Some mp3 music files can be copied to the ipod via iTunes. When I try to copy serverl files, it will copy 1 or more, then hang up on a file. Sometimes if I try with that file several times it will finally copy to the IPOD.
The error comes up while I am in iTunes-- I assume it is referring to the IPOD, but I am not sure. I am running Windows 7.
Thanks for your help.

I have an ipod touch fourth generation and my computer all of the sudden is not recognising it. I cannot download a playlist onto the ipod. It is actually coming up as a different name.

I have an ipod touch and my computer is all of the sudden not recognising it. I cannot upload a playlist because when I plug device in. It shows up as a whole other ipod. Thank you Teresa

This Apple article might help ya out -> iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Make sure the iPod touch is connected straight into the computer, not into a hub. Also, make sure there aren't any other iPods connected while you're testing it.

I just downloaded the Facebook app onto my iPod, but it won't log me in.

I just inherited an iPod 4 from my sister. She removed all her settings (and apparently most of her apps, only a MoonPig remained) and her accounts and stuff. She used to have the Facebook app, and it worked fine for her. I redownloaded it, and when I typed in my password, it, as per my user settings, told me to expect an SMS with a security code. I did indeed get that text, and I put it in. It spends aaaaages loading, and then either just keeps loading or goes briefly past the log in page, but after just showing the 'menu bar' of the app (basically the blue thing with the buttons on the top, which allows you tu update the status) very briefly, before any content is shown, it just goes right back to the log in page. I've synced my iPod to iTunes on my laptop, and set up my Apple account (obvs, or I wouldn't have been able to get any apps). Can someone please tell me why it won't let me in? It apparently accepts me logging in fine, because I got an email telling me that a security passcode has been entered and someone has logged into my Fb using an iPod (i.e. me). But it won't let me actually use the app. I've redownloaded many times, restarted my iPod, still doesn't work. Quick help would be much appreciated.
P.s. I also downloaded the seperate Facebook Messenger, and that works fine.

Loaded IOS7 last night, my purchased Apps are visible in the App Store, but they didn't load automatically. I can Open the Ap, but it won't load. Any suggestions

Loaded IOS 7.0.2 yesterday on my Ipad Mini, and although I can see all of my Apps in the App Store, they didn't load automatically. I went into the App Store, selected Purchased, could see them all. I clicked on Open, the App does Open and I can use it, but it will not appear as an icon on my screen, Only way to access it is via the App Store, Purchased and Select Open every time. Any suggestions??

It looks like the developer's of that app, or Apple, have got the wrong search name for it in the store - you could try contacting the developer and pointing it out to them so that they can get it corrected. Currently it looks like you can only find the app either by using the link (as you've included in your post), or by searching for the developer's name (Page Foundry Inc) in the store.
For searching the store, when you search for something then the first result(s) should be those whose title matches what you searched for - so if you search for 'ebook reader' then as there is an app with that exact name it will be first in the results, other apps will then be listed after it.

I've loaded lightroom 4 onto my laptop but it won't load up on the desktop.

I have a problem loading lightroom4 onto my desktop. It loaded onto my laptop okay!
But an error message keeps coming up on the desktop.
This is the error message below.
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available"
My desktop 32bit, and laptop 64 bit are both running windows 7 pro.

That's a rather generic Windows crash. Does Windows Event Viewer provide more details about what may cause the issue?

HT1923 The sync function on my iPod Touch 3rd generation doesn't work properly. My OS is up to date, but some of my podcasts won't transfer onto the iPod, and it won't delete ones I've already listened to.

The sync function on my 3rd gen iPod Touch doesn't work properly. It won't sync all the podcasts I've downloaded, and it won't delete ones I've listened to and deleted on iTunes.

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is unresponsive and can't be turned off, you can reset it. See this article for the steps, and other helpful troubleshooting tips for an unresponsive device:

New 6th generation ipod - loaded my library onto the iPod all songs are greyed out and I cannot add a playlist.

I have purchased a new 6th generation ipod and registered it with Apple- it has loaded all my library onto the iPod but when the library is displayed all songs are greyed out and I cannot add a playlist. Can anyone help me ?

The content that you are viewing on your Nano via iTunes is grayed out since your iPod is set up for automatic syncing with your iTunes library. If you want to be able to manually manage your contents (which is sounds like you are trying to do), you must enable the Manually manage music option from under your iPod's Summary tab in iTunes.
