IPod 30GB Fifth Gen Problem With Transferring

So I'm not exactly sure how to describe this but this is what happens and I wanna know why and how I can change this.
I went on my ipod the other day to say search for a Method Man song I have on my itunes. I have about 5959 songs on my itunes and it covers about 27.45 gb's of my 30 gb ipod. This particular song I did not put in the album title to the song and I found that when i went to look for the song on my ipod only the songs that were there were the ones with album titles. So basically I can't get to any of the songs on my ipod unless they have an album title. Why is this? How can i change it?
And can anyone give me an approximation of how many songs I can still fit on my ipod if 27.23 gb's are takin up with 5959 songs if my ipod is a 30gb?

3 posts about the same thing??

  • Ipod Classic 6th gen problems with HDD upgrade

    I have a Ipod 6th gen and left it in rain. I got a red X the next week after having it in rice.
    Ordered a SD Card for the iFlash with SD card adapter. I still get the red X. Why? I formatted the 64GB SD with FAT32. I dont know what else to do. I also cleaned the HDD ribbon cable with rubbing alcohol and flipped the connections but still no avail.

    disk utility is normally correct. you can try putting ipod in disk mode and control + click > get info on the ipod. see what the capacity is and it should have the 160 GB. in disk utility you can try verify disk. I would try to return the hard drive.

  • ITunes not compatible with iPod Touch 4th gen (problem with Windows 64 bit)

    So I've been trying for about a month or so to sync my iPod Touch to iTunes but ever since i updated it to iTunes 11 it has been saying that i need to uninstall it and install the 64 bit version. I've done that twice this week alone and its still not working, saying again that i need the 64 bit which I already have. I've ended up completely erasing previous iTunes data to see if that would help, but that just ended up being more hassle. I don't think its just my iPod, because it refuses to sync my iPad 2 manually as well.
    Please help me, i'm at my wits end.

    You are very perceptive - has nothing to do with your ipod, has to do with your Windows. You can try couple things.
    One - reinstall itunes "apple way" and when downloading disable your anitvirus.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    please make sure that you completed not only step one, but also step two.
    Then disable your antivirus and go to step three.
    iTunes 11.0.5 for Windows 64 - Apple - Support
    if that does not work go to thing number two.
    Two - come back here with precise text of the message, see if anybody had it before.

  • Just got my IPOD 30 5th Gen Problem with adds to IPOD

    When I add music CD to IPOD I get duplicate names..ie. Queen (2 disc set) add disc 1 ok then disc 2 but in iTUNES it shows duplicate song titles under Queen.. when u play each they are diff songs?
    Also I get the question mark in the far left column.. when u click it to play nothing happens..If I add the song a second time the question mark is gone and song plays?
    Can someone assist...Most appreciated
    What is the correct way to add music to IPOD?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Are you importing the CD through iTunes? Are you letting iTunes name the tracks? Are the duplicates showing up in iTunes too, or just on the iPod. You have to get them into your iTunes library the way you want them or they won't transfer on the iPod the right way.
    Which symbol is showing up next to the song in iTunes?

    You can add songs to the iPod manually by dragging them or by letting iTunes automatically add them, depending on the preferences you have set.

  • If I replace my Ipod touch 4th gen screen with a local company other than Apple will the apple warrenty be void or will the warrenty be void if I replace the screen myself?

    If I replace my Ipod touch 4th gen screen with a local company other then Apple will the Apple warrenty be void or will the warrenty be void if I replace the screen myself?

    Regardless of what Apple may or may not say about repair work done by a third party (a non-Apple company or you yourself), the Magnuson-Moss Act precludes them from voiding your warranty simply because you had work done by a third party or used non-OEM parts.  Typically people hear of thie Act as it is applied to cars. Car manufacturers cannot require you go to a dealership for repairs or that you use OEM parts. They cannot void your warranty for doing that. The Act applies to all consumer goods. Computer manufacturers cannot require you send your computer to them for memory upgrades or that you use memory supplied by them. Apple cannot require you to go to Apple for repair work or that you use Apple parts in that repair. 
    With that said, though, if you have a problem in the future, Apple could make the claim that it was the result of damage from improper repair or substandard parts. Your only recourse would be the court system, not a quick or inexpensive endeavor.

    Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

    If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

  • Will ipod touch 4 gen work with windows vista service pack 1?

    Will ipod touch 4 gen work with vista service pack 1?

    All Apple says is:
    PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    Does it work/sync with SP1?
    Why not update to latest Vista?

  • Problem with transferring garageband track from iPad2 to macbook

    Hello,
    I have a problem with transferring track from Garage band 2.0 on iPad2 to a new macbook pro (oct2013).
    I saved a track on macbook via iTunes but when i`m trying to open it on Garageband it shows an error.
    I have updated all soft recently. So it couldn't be true.
    Could you please help me to solve the problem?
    Thank you very much!

    What software are you running on your MBPr? Are you using MacOS X 10.8.5 or MacOS X 10.9?  Probably you need to update your MBPr to Mavericks and GarageBand 10.0.0.

  • Problems with transferring iTunes Library to new iMac

    I am having a problem with transferring my iTunes library to my new iMac. I have read many of the suggestions posted in this forum along with numerous articles on other sites. I have not seen anyone describe my exact problem.
    When I got my new iMac, I used Migration Assistant to transfer everything (files, applications, settings, etc.) from my old iMac to the new iMac. On my old iMac, the iTunes music folder (i.e., the actual mp3s) are on an external HD, while the iTunes Library file (the database and xml files) were in the /user/Music/ folder on the old iMac.
    After the Migration Assistant was done, the /user/music/ folder and the library files were copied to the new iMac, but the iTunes music folder was not. It is still on the external HD.
    If I open iTunes on the new iMac, iTunes shows me all of my songs, but if I play one, I get the "song can't be found; do you want to find it" error. In iTunes preferences on the new iMac, the "iTunes music folder location" is the new iMac.
    I have the 2 iMacs connected by a firewire cable, but neither iMac recognizes the other computer as being on the same network. That is, in Finder on the new iMac, I cannot see the external HD of the old iMac.
    I can't change the library location on the old iMac, because the new iMac does not appear in Finder or in the "Change Music Folder Location" dialog box.
    I want to move the music folder (the actual mp3s) from the external HD of the old iMac to the INTERNAL HD of the new iMac. I don't need to keep them on the old IMac, as I will be selling that computer. Of course, I want to keep all my playlists, artwork, etc from the old library.
    Does anyone have a suggestion?
    Thanks.

    Never mind. Figured it out. I attached external HD to new iMac and consolidated. Duh.

  • My ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

    my ipod touch is having problems with the headphone jack when I rotate a little song stops

    Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for  free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

    I have a 7th generation ipod, i have a problem with the pause/play button, it no longer works.
    What does it take to make sure it works ????
    Thanks

    If you successfullt restore to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Problems with transferring music from itunes to ipod

    Hello, I've never had problems with iTunes but this issue amazes me! I emptied my whole iTunes Library the other day, and added a whole load of new songs. Then, when I was finished with my selection I connected my iPod Nano to USB portal at my pc. iTunes recognised the iPod and also said: bijwerken.. niet loskoppelen (moving files, don't disconnect). This takes 2 seconds and then it says the iPod is ready with transferring files.
    Then I notice that no files where moved at all. My iPod is empty for two days now and It's killing me !! hehe, please help ?!
    Tom

    I'm not sure if this is what you are after but Forum member Buegie has compiled a very extensive procedure for backing up your music which you'll find at this link: Backing up iTunes
    You'll also find instructions here on uninstalling iTunes: Stepwise clean uninstallation of iTunes</a
    I hope these are of some help, take care.
