Ipod does not play music in play after...

Hello Guys...
I have this problem... In the night I connect my ipod to the computer to charge while I am working, in the morning I browse in the ipod menu but when I play any music file, the screen shows the "play symbolo" but the song does not play, I press "pause" then "play" but not works, after it, I reset the ipod pressing the "menu and center" buttons, after it, works good.
In the day when I dont play music for couple hours and try again, the problem comes again.
The question, any solution?
I have 5th ipod generation, 30G, ipod software 1.2.1, iTunes (last version) 7.1.1.5, windows xp.
Thanks in advanced for the help.

Could you help us please ?
Thanks.

My ipod will not save music on it after it has been disconnected...how can i fix this?

My iPod classic does not save music on it. It saved music on it twice and when I connected it to add more music it would no longer save music on it. It keeps resetting itself. How can I fix this?

Apple will exchange the iPod for $79

My ipod does not synk music

Hello, i have moved all my music to an external drive.
My ipod only recognises the pictures and only synks the photos that are still on my drive c:.
But the rest of my music that is on my portable drive it does not recognise.
can anybody help
regards

Look at your iTunes library ("Music" view). Double click a song. If it doesn't play, it won't sync to your iPod. Take a look in iTunes Help under "Changing where your iTunes files are stored."

60gb iPod does not see music files on my external HD

I'm going nuts trying to figure out why my iBook does not see the music files on my external HD.
I have a 250gb external hard drive (that I put together with an enclosure and HD I bought from Tiger Direct). I have the hard drive hooked up to my G3 iBook via Fire Wire. The HD comes up on the desktop, but none of the files are seen. Now, when I take the same HD and hook it up to my Windows PC, all my music is there.
I really don't want to have my iPod hooked up to my PC. My G3 is too small to hold all the music. I need to have the external HD to handle all the music for my iPod.
How do I accomplish this on my G3?
Thanks!
iBook G3 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hyphen says:
[The] drive can be formatted as fat32 and be read/written by macs. He could also partition it, one partition as hfs+, the other as fat32. This can be done from disk utility.
The NTFS format (windows) has only read support for OS X.
How did s/he copy the music on the external drive? Was the music on his/her pc? If yes the hierarchy may be different for the pc version of iTunes library, or is it that he can't find the files even from the finder?
And Red Dwarf adds:
Just to add to hyphen's reply, FAT32 has a maximum size of 32GB. The user cannot make the partition larger than 32GB should they decide to go down that route.
Another alternative is a utility called TransMac. When installed on a PC, it will allow the PC to recognise a Mac OS formatted drive and read the files within. No need then to worry about all that FAT32 and NTFS malarky stuff. It weighs in at $64 dollars though for a 1-3 user licence:

So hopefully, with Kappy's help, too, you will be able to figure it out.
Good luck.

IPod does not sync music. Please help before I die. LOL

ok so i plug in my usb to my iPod after i dragged the music into itunes from folders and what not and you know usually when the music syncs it will till u the title of the songs and stuff at the top while its syncing right? well i add a lot of new songs and it just says that its syncing but doesnt show the process of it being synced...then when it says done i go back in my ipod and the new music isnt there...i've reset the pod a bunch of times..restarted my computer..reinstalled iTunes..i dont know what else to do..if u can help me it would b greatly appreciated..thank you!!

*i've reset the pod a bunch of times*
Have you tried "restoring" your iPod? Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to sync using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Did you use the same name for both iPods?

My ipod does not shuffle but only plays one song

I just got my second ipod touch after the first one died. I loaded all my favorite tunes but when I hit shuffle, it will only play the first song it comes to and just repeats the same song over and over.

You have repeat on.
This is covered in the manual:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
Play the song, tap the screen, tap the repeat icon until it is white = off.

Problems, trying to use backup from 5.1.1 iOS Gen 3 iPod does not sync music to 4th gen iOS 6 iPod.

My 3rd Gen iPod's headphone connector is basically shot, I've had it for around if not over two years now; sometimes I'm surprised it lasted this long; since I am not one who usually listens to her music without headphones, this is problematic, .
Luckily, a family memberI know had a gen 4 iPod, 32g, same space amount as my old one, lying around that they don't use anymore, thank goodness.
Well, in one case, not so much. First of all, said iPod was locked with a passcode (the passcode was guessed so many times because no one could remember it, it locked permenantly) so I had to completely wipe it. However, it wasn't so bad, though all the information was lost, I could finally use iOS 6 on an iPod.
Well, iOS turned out to be a huge problem, in the way of synicing my old backup. I have about, um, an estimated 3000 songs on my 3rd gen iPod, that of which are not all on one computer, and are from multiple computers (my desktop / laptop); I thought all the songs would transfer over with the rest of my things. I didn't think the iOS made a difference.
Lo and behold, I was dead wrong.
When my iPod was restored to my previous backup, it had no music, only my pictures and apps were added. I'd call 'it annoyed me' an understatement. I waited all that time for the ipod to restore and the backup to finish, only to get my one hundered pictures and two apps.
I have tried to look up how to extract music from my iPod, but to no avail, my computer recognizes it as a camera and I can only access the picture files; the way I read you have to do it online, you must be able to actually get into the iPod's folders, besides the picture folders, and I can't seem to do that; there was an option in earlier versions of iTunes that allowed the iPod device to be displayed as something other than a camera but it no longer seems to be an option in the new iTunes.
All the programs for extracting files, specialized for iPod file extraction, actually, cost money, which at the moment, I don't have much of, this iPod was given to me by a family member, and I'm lucky I even have it. Manual extraction is also something I've tried but failed miserably at, as mentioned earlier.
I'm really not up for re-synching one by one, I want this to be as quick and painless as possible. I have the available GB for my 3000 songs (I checked). Most of my songs are mp3s, and some are m4as. Not everything is bought, and not everything is going to be able to be downloaded through iCloud on account of the fact that there are, uh, over 2GB worth of songs, so does anyone have any solutions to my problem here? I have over 50gb in my desktop library alone, loads more in my laptop library, and I really don't feel like separating all the songs from my previous iPod into a single playlist, if there's a more efficient, free solution out there....
This would not have been a problem in the first place, if the passcode was not there; but blame the previous owner of the 4th gen iPod for that. She typed it so many times it locked her out. And so, I had to reset, but not without an automatic update for iOS 6, which my gen3 can't update to, because it's, well, outdated.

Connect the iPod to your computer and update to iOS 6.1.3. You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer.
iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later

IPod does not display music in the Cloud

I'm at my wits end to get my iPod to see the 5500 selections in the Cloud. I've reinstalled iTunes, I've restored the iPod software backing up first, and restored the iPod software with no backup and resynced. Nothing worked. If I manually sync to iTunes with Match turned off, I get the full library on the iPod. When I turn Match back on in the iPod, Match wipes the library off the iPod, as advertised, but then displays the iCloud icon for a few seconds, then an empty library and "No Music. You can download music from iTunes." Nothing I have done has produced an iPod that sees the Cloud. I haven't seen this problem on any discussions or help sites so far, and have not called Apple Tech Support directly, hoping to avoid a fee. HELP! I've wasted two days trying to make this thing work.

Hello All, and especially to Michael Allbritton,
Well, for what it is worth, I finally got the Cloud music appear on my iPod. It took a lot of tweaking and fixing of three different iTunes accounts I had, including ensuring I was using the right account on both the iPod and the MacBook. I had mismatches between the two devices, PLUS I had differing account passwords on the two devices. It took a while for me to track all this down, partly because of my own confusing naming conventions,, and partly because it takes time to redo the whole Cloud process or restore an iPod, which I did several times. Patience paid off.
So it is working now. Whether it is all working absolutely correctly or not, I don't know because I haven't delved into the details. But at least I have my music stuff working on the iPod without 30+ Gigs of storage used up.
One other thing; I noticed on some of the posts that members were flaming others for explaining what worked for them which caused others to use the technique to have to go back to square one. We are all in the same boat on this new technology, and personally I have run through the installation, sync, and reformatting the iPod a number of times, using various suggestions form the community. Don't shoot people for trying things out and reporting what happened to them. Don't expect to be an early adapter and not have glitches. Don't expect every solution offered to match your specific problem. And for gods sake read the f*cking instructions Apple has already posted on what does what to whom. It isn't rocket science, and asking basic questions in this forum seems to be a waste of time when the answer is already on web.
Just my opinion. I could be wrong.

Why do my songs and audio books keep getting erased when I add a new book? Now some books will not play and the iPod does not keep track of where I was when I pause a book, leave for music and then go back!

About a month ago I added some new audio books to my iPod Classic and then after disconnecting, I discovered EVERYTHING had been erased.
I had to restore through my iTunes but then I could not load my music back on.
I uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes and completely reformated the iPod drive.
I successfully got my music and books back on but then added a new book two days ago only to discover everything got erased AGAIN!!!
Of course, my 1 Year Warranty was up about a week before the first incident.....
I formatted the iPod again, uninstalled / reinstalled iTunes (it was freezing during sync) and downloaded all my music and books again.
Now I have several books that will not play (they play on iTunes and they played on the iPod before all these events) and the iPod does not keep track of where I was in a book when I have to stop and go to something else.
Does anyone know what is going on with this thing??? I have a 5th Gen Video and in all the years I've had it, I've NEVER had problems like this!
Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to get my iPod Classic up and running properly again?
Thanks.

When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day!

Ipod Does not Play songs

Ipod does not play music. Instead of playing the song, it just lists the title (like when a song is playing) and then moves to the next song without playing the song. It's as if it automatically forwards to the next song (song titles displays for every second). And this occurs in shuffle mode, and/or selecting a playlist. Need help! Ipod was purchased in this site on May 27,2006.

Sometimes my ipod does not down load my entire library when I sync up with itunes, even if I have items loaded in the play list and can see them in the play list in my itunes when I check my ipod play list some items are missing part 1 will be there but part two is not. Why?????

How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library? In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?
