Ipod freezing my computer please help
i installed the ipod software and i put a bunch of music on my ipod and it worked fine but know when i use it its freezing my computer can anyone help me
If your using iTunes, I would reinstall it. The program is a bit glitchy especially in windows. You know you could just use Windows Explorer and copy and paste your MP3 or WAV or w/e files into the iPod's hidden folders.

oh and im running a PC with windows XP fully updated and fairly new.If you bough the extended warranty, it should still be covered (otherwise, probably not).
You can try taking it in to Apple, they'll fix it for free if it's under warranty.
If they want you to pay, it's your call, but I'd probably just get a new one (they're pretty cheap these days).
You could also try waiting a few days, sometimes it just warms up or whatever, and will work if you wait enough.
As a VERY last resort, a friend told me that Apple suggested just banging it on a table a few times.
Don't hold me to this, and don't do it unless you'd lose your iPod anyway. Don't blame me if it makes it worse, I warned you.
Good luck!

I think one of the third-party computer apps discussed in this previous discussion will help.

my itunes will not open at all. it occasionally will open but when i plug my iphone into it the program freezes and crashes. please help as soon as possible
i think i might have a solution... i have windows vista and after i installed to latest itunes update everytime i tried to open it it would freeze. I tried everything, including uninstalling itunes and all of its components and reinstalled it numerous times. So i went to the itunes folder in my folders, not on itunes, and i deleted my itunes library and playlists. After that it worked just fine, all of my music was deleted but luckily i had my files saved elsewhere.
I hope this helped! I know its frustrating and APPLE/ITUNES NEED TO FIX THE PROBLEM!!!! -

my iphone does not sync with itunes on my second authorized computer, please help. i changed the first authorized computer in May 2012 and have been using the second authorized computer since then but it cannot sync - please help!!
"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data. -

Ipod is not recognized by my iTune nor my computer::::::please help me!!
since yesterday i have been transferring my music perfectly fine. today for some reason, i accidently took my ipod shuffle out witout pressing the eject button or clicking the safely remove device from my computer. Later it says that there was a song in my ipod that was corrupt. Later i tried to transfer music from my itunes to the ipod which it did successfully. But when i tried to eject my ipod, it says that "cannot eject my ipod from the computer because there is another program using it" . So i went online to find out how to resolve it and it says that if my ipod is corrupt i should restore. That is exactly what i did and i updated my itunes and restored my ipod by following their instructions. As it was going through the first stage of restoring, it stopped before it reached stage 2 and then a window came up that says i can't restore the ipod. Now, all my songs in my ipod is erased, my computer doesn't recognize my ipod shuffle and i can't listen to ipod or transfer music to it? what should i do?!!!
Hi - We seem to have encountered the same problem!! I forgot to eject the ipod from itunes last night and now itunes will not recognise the ipod. The pc recognises it in device settings, but you cannot restore it from that point. I have downloaded the restore function, but the restore button does not highlight, so that is no good.
I am in a dilema here because no one seems to know how to fix the problem, I've only had it a couple days!!!
PLEASE HELP ANYBODY!!! -
