IPhone's iPod content (music and videos) no longer visible!

I just upgraded my iTunes to 7.6 and now, after syncing my iPhone, all of the iPod-type data (music, video, podcasts, etc.) is now not visible on the iPhone. The "capacity" bar at the bottom of the iTunes screen show that all of the data (5.76GB) is still there, but now it is all the orange color for "other." My photos are still yellow in the bar and viewable on my iPhone, but I get a "No Music" and "No Videos" screen on the iPhone when I try to view that content. Apparently it is still there, but somehow the "file type" has been changed. My only two recent changes are updating to iTunes 7.6 and upgrading the iPhone software to the current 1.1.3. I've tried restarting the iPhone with the home/powerswitch method and have rebooted the computer several times as well. I was going to try and downgrade iTunes by installing 7.5, but another user noted that 7.5 will not read the updated 7.6 playlist. ANY IDEAS?? (all of this is on 10.4.11, not Leopard.)

Hey Larry,
I went ahead and did a "restore" and everything was back to normal. It did take a while, though, as it wiped out then re-copied over 7Gigs of data to the phone. It was a hassle, but all is OK. I'm still concerned, though. I also spoke with a Genius at the Apple store who had never seen this, and thought it was a problem with the "file type" in iTunes, but i checked and movies were still "movie" filetype. He suggested MANUALLY checking/adjusting every file, but that is rediculous and there were hundreds of songs and videos!! Anywho, on my iPhone the date outside of the iPod items (music, videos, podcasts, etc.) was not effected, and all is back to normal after a lengthy "restore." Still looking for a "why" on this one...

  • Music and videos no longer upload after ipod software updated

    I recently updated the software on my ipod to the latest version (1.2.2). I just clicked yes when the pop up asked whether I wanted to or not. Next thing I know, my music and videos no longer upload onto the ipod. They appear to be syncing because itunes shows syncing progress and stuff. It actually says the music is uploading on itunes but when i go onto my ipod there's no music or videos on it at all. The pictures however do upload. What could be the problem?

    This is an iPod Classic you have because the latest firmware version is 1.0.2.

  • So my ipod had music and videos wiped out

    i plugged in my ipod to the computer, but it didn't recognize it so i unplugged it and plugged it back in and when i did, it had no music, but i check how much of the memory is used up, it still has the same memory used up for all the music and videos i have. it's in orange instead of being green for music.
    how do i solve this?

    Connect the iPod to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and the use the Music tab on the right-hand side of iTunes to select and sync your music to the iPod

  • I have a itunes 11, iMac, iPad sync issue... all new kit, the itunes library and photos are on a networrk drive but syncing is useless, no music, no photos, no video, sometimes music and videos may be visible but greyed out on the ipad....

    This is my first posting so sorry for the messy title... I didn't realise how it all worked here.
    I have a shiny new imac, shiny new ipad and have all my media on a network hard drive - itunes works fine on the mac - no problems - photos visible in finder and photoshop - no problems, but when I come to sync the new ipad - several things may happen (I have tried many times now)
    1) a long wait - whirly gig round spinner thing - then music visible on the ipad but greyed out and useless
    2) no photos at all synced
    3) no videos synced
    4) info syncs ok
    5) apps seem to have synced OK
    It is not a data size issue as the same amount of data synced before the new kit from my old windows pc on to an iPod - I daren't try syncing the ipod as I need it for my next business trip.
    I tried removing the ipod cache files for the photos - no difference - I tried restoring the ipad - no difference
    Have I completely wasted a large amount of money?

    ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

    Change your iCloud ID password: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5624.  After doing so, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new password.

  • Trying to sync new music i got on my mac which is my new computer to my iPhone and erase and sync is saying it will replace the contents of my phone. Does it mean Photos also or just Music and Videos?

    I got a Mac and i downloaded new music on it and im trying to sync the music on this computer to my iPhone which is hooked up to another iTunes and iTunes is saying " An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes Library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library" does this mean that it will also erase my photos or just my music and videos ?? if it does is there another way to sync with out all my contents being deleted??

    You can only sync one iTunes Library from Mac to iPhone.
    And just so are you aware, Apple ID accounts cannot be merged, thus merging content > Frequently asked questions about Apple ID

  • Delete content, My iPod 4 deleted all my music and videos for the third time. What can I do to stop this?, My iPod 4 deleted all my music and videos for the third time. What can I do to stop this?

    iPod deletes all music and videos, I synced it with iTunes, but after some time it deletes again.

    To stop this, don't use the same Apple ID on both phones for iMessage and FaceTime.  (You can continue to use the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't need to be the same as the ID used for iMessage or FaceTime.)
    On one of the phones, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • What contents are being deleted if I click "Manually Manage Music and Videos" in my iPhone 4S?

    Would it delete all my txt messages, contacts, and notes? I don't mind getting all my apps deleted, but my contacts are very important.

    If you sync and you have chosen manually manage music and Videos then only those songs and videos that you have ticked in itunes will be synced to the phone Nothing will happen to contacts notes and apps

  • Cannot delete music from iPod nano (latest generation).  Have already selected "Manually Manage music and videos" but delete is unavailable from right click or Edit.

    I have done everything I've seen recommended for deleting music (jncluding "manually manage").  Thanks for the assistance!!!

    Did you Apply the change after selecting (checking the box for) Manually manage music and videos?
    With the latest iTunes, if the sidebar is hidden, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    In the sidebar, select the iPod under DEVICES.  Click the toggle (to the left of iPod) to drop down the iPod's content list, indented under iPod.  Click on Music there.  Over to the right, the list of songs on the iPod is shown.  You can select songs there, right click on them, and select Delete from the contextual menu.  You can also select songs there, go up to the menu bar, and select Delete under Edit.  You can also select songs there, and just press the Delete key on the keyboard.
    If you want to use automatic syncing, which is far more convenient than the manual method, and easily manage content on the iPod (add and remove songs), please post back.

    The songs that you downloaded on the iPad can be transferred to the computer when you sync with iTunes. For the music from your cousins computer - if they were purchased with his Apple ID - you can't sync them to your iTunes account.

    I have Mac itunes and a touch 2G.  My wife has Win7 and touch 4G (both iOS 4.2.1). She got a new iphone, I now have her touch 4G, and am trying to sync it to my Mac itunes.  The music and videos sync to the 4G, but apps & podcast will not. All are checked to sync.  During sync, it gets to "determining apps to sync"  then immediately goes to "finished syncing".   No apps or podcasts from my Mac itunes are on the touch 4G.

    You can only sync to one iTunes library but you can manage music and videos among different computer/libraries.
    It appears that you are trying to sync with a different library.
    - If you want to make the Mac you syncing computer:
    --- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by:
    iOS: How to back up
    --- Restore the iPod from that backup. Note that synced media like apps and music are not in included in the backup.

  • My ipod touch 4th Gen doesn't show me the music and videos

    My ipod touch 4th Gen doesn't show me the music and videos I have, even though I can see it all in the I tunes and I can see that the ipod memory is full as it was... What to do???
    Thx

    Not compatible.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

  • I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos". How can I do that without losing some of the features

    I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos".  How can I do that without losing some of the features of those two?   I just want to add a feature.  Thanks

    Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores if you are running iOS6)>Apple ID. Tap your son's ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID and password.
    You shouldn't lose the music, but if you try to update any apps that you bought with the family ID, you will have to use that password that is linked with that ID in order to update.
    Avoid downloading past purchased content with the old ID if you can since you will associate the iPad with the old ID for 90 days and you will lock yourself out of your own, new ID for that period of time. Read more about associated devices in iTunes here.
