I updated my iPod and now my songs won't show?

I plugged in my iPod and it asked if I wanted to update it and I did. After that none of my songs would appear on my iPod, but itunes showed in the left pane that everything was on it. I read another topic with the same problem and I think I need to update my itunes software..however..it won't update because it says I need XP or Vista...I have 2000. I can't go a day without my iPod what do I do?!?

That's the kind of solution I'm interested in, Farias. Who does apple think they are to have me update my iPod and THEN tell me AFTER THE FACT that I need to purchase a new $50 OS if I want to continue using. And when they keep asking me if I want to update they need to give me a link with information about the update so that I fully understand what I'm getting, therefore I'll be absolutely certain whether I want to update at all. This is my second iPod so I've spent well over $450 on them with the iPod and the songs I've purchased from iTunes...I don't just have $50 dollars to go and buy XP because they're under a "contract"...I didn't get any kind of newsletter informing me of that. Apple better find a way to fix my problem without me paying a penny otherwise I'll ask for a Zune for christmas.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Hello,
Try reseting your device.
Hold the power button and the home button down until the device shuts off, then power it back on and see if the problem is resolved.
I just refreshed your post, so if this does not help you, it is now at the top of the list for a short while, other people should be able to try and help you.

Which version of iTunes are you using?
What is your iPod firmware number as shown in the iTunes summary page?
Is there any error message when you try to sync the vidoes?
Have a nice day!

Hey KAYLIEH,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPhone 4s is not recognized in iTunes for Mac. The following resource may provide a solution:

I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this?

I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this? I allways found that handy. Now I have to click on an icon on the top, This is a backward step if that is now the only way to see the number of items. Am I missing something obvious?

In the good old days of Snow Leopard, an open Finder folder had a border along the bottom of the window which could show the number of items in that window and the total available space on the hard disk or partition that folder resides on. That bottom border is gone in Lion and those two bits of information are gone with it. Is that what you're talking about? If so, I'd like to learn how to get it back too and "Show Item Info" is not the way.

Back up your documents and everything else important to you, not that there is any reason to believe your hard disk may be failing, but the symptoms you describe may presage an impending disk failure, and you should have backups anyway.
To help determine the possible causes of this behaviour read the following. None of what follows is intended to fix anything, but it will provide the additional information required to advance troubleshooting:
Boot OS X Recovery by holding ⌘ and r (two fingers) while you start your Mac. At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red.
When it finishes restart your Mac and test again for operation. If it's still not behaving as you expect it should, please post the results of EtreCheck in accordance with the following instructions:

After completing the above please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

I changed my email address and now some songs won't authorize

I had to change my email address and now the songs purchased and authorized with my old email wont load or play? It's happened to 36 songs I purchased with Itunes and I don't want to spend $36 to get them back. How can I authorize the old songs when Itunes no longer recognizes my old address?

I guess I should clarify, what actually is happening is that when I attempt to play or burn a song downloaded when I had the old aol.com account, it says "you are not authorized to play X song. You must authorize your computer to play all songs purchased by 'karitag' (which was my old apple id through aol). Would you like to authorize now?" When I try to authorize it tells me that the apple id "karitag" does not exist. Well, it doesn't, because when that email account expired I converted to a regular iTunes account using my email address. Keep in mind this has only been an issue since I downloaded iTunes 7. It's just so frustrating to have half of my iTunes library (over 800 songs!) inaccessible.

Updated my ipod and now it won't let me restore my iPod.

My iPod was working fine until I decided to purchase Angry Birds on the AppStore on my iPod Touch 3g. Soon after I hit install the Angry Birds icon was grey and it wouldnt install, I turned the iPod off and when it turned on it still said "loading" on the little icon. After a little bit the screen went weird and shut off. The Apple logo kept coming up and it wouldn't go away. I looked up that issue and got it fixed, I held down home and then connected it to my computer. I went into iTunes and it told me I needed to update the software in order to restore my iPod. I updated the software and when I clicked restore it would say "Checking restoration with Apple" and it would start to go, the little loading bar comes up under the apple sign like its gonna work and then it disconnects my iPod and it says The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (1611). And now under Capacity, Software Version, and Serial Number all show n/a. What happened to my Ipod and can it be fixed?

Hello, Andrea. This is what I just did with my shuffle.
Downloaded the newest updater - I think you were given the URL in the other thread. Then I installed the updater on my hard drive - this involved clicking the Continue button to get through a couple of screens.
Ran the updater. It was in my ' Applications/Utilites/iPod Software Updater.localized ' folder. I double clicked the icon for iPod Updater 2005-11-17.
Two screens came up, overlaid. The topmost was an information screen saying which software is in the updater. I quit that window. The window behind it was the application. Across the top it says to insert an iPod.
I plugged my shuffle in. The updater recognized my serial number and said the software needs updating. Since you said the program wouldn't allow you to choose Update, I did it to check. The software updated just fine. (Be sure to eject the shuffle once the Updater has gone through and finished its job.)
Right now iTunes is putting songs back on the shuffle.
Since the Updater doesn't have Continue buttons, I wonder if you only got as far as putting the Updater on your hard drive and haven't yet updated the shuffle?
Good luck
srb
