I tunes is putting 2/duplicate songs on to my Ipod touch

Why is I tunes is duplicating songs when synching on to my I pod touch?

Hey...
Just got help from Apple Care with this... It is a gliche with the software update.
1.  Click on your iPod device in iTunes
2.  From the iPod summary page, click the tab Music.
3.  Uncheck Sync Music and hit apply at the bottom right corner
4.  Once the iPod applies the change, go back and re-click Sync Music and apply.
Your iPod will manually resync all your music and elimate the duplicates on the iPod.
Hope this helps!

  • Duplicate songs appeared on my iPod touch 5g IOS 7.1.2, after synced with a new windows laptop, some duplicates open, some dont.

    Hi, i have an iPod touch 5g with IOS 7.1.2. .My iPod was synced to a previous laptop with my songs and i got a new laptop with the copied songs, i put them on iTunes 11 and synced it to my iPod and duplicates appeared in the music app on most of the songs. Some of the duplicates open and some turn grey when i play them. I have deleted all of the duplicates on iTunes, but they dont dissapear after i sync them. I cant delete the duplicates that appear grey, but i can delete the rest. Please help, i have no idea how to fix it.

    Well, you could trade it in for a white one! 
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • I have duplicate songs displaying on my Ipod but not in my library.

    I have an Ipod Touch, Itunes 10.5.33. I have duplicate songs showing up on my Touch, however, there are no duplicate songs in my library on my pc. as best as I can tell at this point, these duplicate songs on my Touch are purchased songs and I have only purchased them once. any ideas as to how to get rid of the duplicate entries on my Ipod?

    I had this problem too. You just have to plug in your iPod to your computer. On the summary, there is a box that says "Manually manage music and videos". Uncheck that box. You now can add and remove music to your iPod without iTunes forcing anything. This also means that checks next to songs in your iTunes Library mean nothying while you are in that mode for that device (if this pressures you, you can re-check that box later). ANYWAY! So once you uncheck that box and click "Apply" in the lower right corner, you then open the drop down menu on your iPod's name on the sidebar and click music. This is a list of all of the music on your device. You now simply delete all of the doubles (this won't delete the songs from your iTunes Library. Your iPod will sync every time you delete a song. Once completed and you see no doubles on the list, you have the option to re-check the box with the automatic downloads (if you want) and your doubles will be GONE GONE GONE!
    Thank you for choosing Apple.

  • HT1349 About how many songs does an 8g ipod touch hold?

    About how many songs does an 8g ipod touch hold?

    About 2000. How many you can actually put on it depends on the length and bitrate of the songs, as well as how much space is being otherwise used.

  • Is it possible to rate songs directly on the iPod touch?

    Is it possible to rate songs directly on the iPod touch?
    Also, is it possible to rate videos directly on the iTouch?

    Hi jackhowson,
    As Micromen said, you can rate songs directly on your iPod Touch.
    However with videos, currently you can't! You'll have to rate them on your computer. If you would like to ask Apple this feature, click [Name|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html] and fill out the form.

  • How do i transfer songs purchased on my ipod touch (4g) to my itunes library on my desktop?

    I have purchased songs directly onto my ipod touch, but cannot get them to transfer/sync to my itunes library.  I want to update my software, but need to get all my songs onto my library first.  Does anyone know how to do this?

    When you say you cannot get them to transfer have you tried syncing to the computer, backing up to the computer thru iTunes?

    Tried both methods you have mentioned previous many times without success - to answer your questions

    Nothing is copied

    Yes
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    No
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Yes - just once when I first got it
    If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
    Yes computer os has been updated, I think
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Yes, on my computer and on my ipad and phone
    Does any media now sync to the iPod?
    Yes, synced my iPhone first, this morning
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
    Tried every combination imaginable, including the settings that I had when syncing my iPhone this morning.
    Hope this helps - it's a real pain.

  • How many songs does an 8GB ipod touch really hold?

    how many songs does an 8GB ipod touch really hold?

    A little less than 1750 songs.  The specs for older iPods specified a number of songs.  For the 2G iPod Apple said:
    Capacity
    8GB, 16GB, or 32GB flash drive2
    Holds up to 1,750, 3,500, or 7,000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format3
    The newer iOSs take more storage space so the number of songs will be reduced.

  • How do I put my old song only on my iPod on my Itunes?

    I would like to know how to put my old songs I only got on my iPod on my iTunes .
    Thanks

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • I have tried importing / exporting my playlist from itunes; dragging songs from itunes to my ipod icon in the right corner; nothing is working.  I want to put songs back on my ipod touch version 6.1.5 from itunes version 11.1.3.8; any one have any ideas

    This is very fustrating I have tried a few different things I have seen on-line and nothing is working.  My itunes is version 11.1.3.8 and my ipod touch is ios version 6.1.5.  Since last Christmas I have a playlist called Christmas songs and I would like to move the songs back onto my ipod.  Before I could drag the songs from under the songs list over to the right and a list including my ipod would show.  It still does but when I do it now the songs do not show up in my ipod.  I would appreciate any ideas to get this to work again.

    Verify you have the right boxex checked to sync
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
    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
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
