IPod menu display on iTunes
Since I've got iTunes 7 everytime I connect my iPod to the computer
the iPod display settings within the iTunes menu (artist, track name, year etc) are lost or restored.
Kinda annoying.
Any thoughts?

I am having the same exact problem with iTunes 7. Though, it only started happening after I received a 5.5 generation iPod. Before this I had a 5th generation that iTunes remembered the view settings correctly for.
No amount of restores or disk utility erases fixes the issue, so it leads me to believe it is how iTunes 7 interacts with the new iPod.

My ipod is displaying the itunes logo and a usb cord. I've tried resetting it but it didn't work. Any suggestions?
Your in DFU mood do this:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
Follow these steps to perform a recovery-mode restore on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
You may need to perform a recovery-mode restore if you experience any of the following situations on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The device:
Displays the Apple logo with no progress bar or a stopped progress bar for over ten minutes.
Restarts but never displays the Home screen.
Is no longer recognized in iTunes after an update or restore did not complete.
Automatically goes into recovery mode after having an issue while installing an update or performing a regular restore.
How to perform a recovery-mode restore
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is already showing the "Connect to iTunes" screen, please go to step 5.
Connect your USB cable to your computer but not to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until step 3.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button down, connect the USB cable to the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen. When this screen appears, you can release the Home button:
Note: If the image of a battery appears, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again. If you don't see the Connect to iTunes screen, try these steps 1 through 4 again.
iTunes should automatically open and display the following message:
"iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."Note: If iTunes not open after two minutes, please open iTunes yourself.
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you see the Connect to iTunes screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps if you're using a Mac, or these steps for Windows computers.
Additional Information
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. -

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -

When I connect my 5th generation ipod (2006) to my pc (windows xp), my ipod appears in itunes (v.7.6) in the left pane in itunes, but there are no ipod menu items listed under the ipod icon (eg. Music, Playlists, Movies, Podcasts, Audiobooks, etc.). When I left-click on the ipod icon, the "Set Up Your iPod" screen appears WITHOUT any of the check-box options. There ARE playlists on the ipod .. when disconnected from the pc, the ipod functions perfectly .. including listing all my Songs, Compilations, Podcasts, Playlists, etc. I have RESET my ipod successfully (starting from scratch - wiped out all data), but that did not eliminated the missing ipod menu items in itunes. Does anyone know how to fix this ??!!!
Hi, back to the original thread !
... i checked out http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93499 but it does not seem to resolve my problem ...
SOMETHING NEW i just noticed is that under Disk Manager for my "working ipod" (ie. all the menu items show up under the chevron in itunes) there is NO UNALLOCATED SPACE .. HOWEVER, with the "problem ipod", there is 78MB of unallocated space ... so i guess my next question is how do i reclaim the unallocated space without bricking my ipod ? Anyone ??? -

Game doesn't fit the screen, iPod menu sideways
I have a 4th generation iPod Nano. The problem here comes from the game Brain Challenge.
This is probably a very confusing and complicated explanation of the problem, so I've provided photos of the problem at the bottom of this post.
When I start Brain Challenge the game video is not aligned with the screen so that part of the game is cut off when I play. The game should be displayed on the screen horizontally (with the ipod held horizontally - as in Klondike), however my problem is that Brain Challenge is displayed with a vertical orientation (with the ipod held vertically), meaning the right-hand side of the Brain Challenge interface is cut off by the edge of the screen and there is a large black area at the bottom of the screen (see photo #1).
To make matters worse, when I exit Brain Challenge the orientation of all the ipod menus are askew as well (photo #2). With the ipod held vertically, the ipod menus are now displayed sideways, with anything at the "bottom" of the menu being cut off by the edge of the screen, and a large empty black space at the bottom of the screen. I have found that the only way to correct this and reorient the ipod menu display is to go to Cover View (even resetting the ipod does not resolve it). When I exit Cover View everything is back to normal.
While I have been able to fix the display of the ipod menus when this happens, the problem I described above reoccurs each time I attempt to play Brain Challenge. Maybe the game thinks I have a 3rd generation Nano?
I have uninstalled the game from my ipod and reinstalled it with no better luck. The only other software I have added to my ipod is Ms. Pac-man.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Ipod Menu sideways: http://img37.imageshack.us/img37/4831/menuo.jpgI would do a Restore in iTunes to erase the iPod and initialize its software. Then re-sync your iTunes library as desired, including adding that game. See if it plays better.
If not, and you don't have any similar problems when you play any other games (or at any other time when using the iPod), you should report the problem about that game through the iTunes Store. You can do so using iTunes by selecting the iTunes Store in the sidebar, then clicking on your iTunes Store user ID at the upper right corner. This will give you your account summary view. Click on +Purchase History+. From there, you can find the specific purchase that has this game and +Report a Problem+ to explain the issues. If desired, you can request a refund, because the game does not work as expected.
After doing the Restore, if you notice other similar issues (not just a problem in that game), you may want to have the iPod looked at under the one-year warranty. -
Why can't Apple make The video iPod menu display on your TV screen? I plug my iPod into my suround sound system, have the remote for the iPod and if your sitting on your couch, after watching a movie or song or what ever, you always have to get up to change it. They went that far and you can't get the menu to display on the the screen of you TV. That is stupid that they did that. So now what?

I have an Ipod Touch 2 and rebuilt my laptop. Reinstalled ITUNES and can't find my applications on ITunes after login. I tried to activate Itunes again but it didn't. How can I get my applications to display on ITUNEs?
It sounds like you essentially have a new computer and unless you restored from a backup your iTunes library would be empty. You can transfer your iTunes purchases from your iPod to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
SInce you changed syncing computers. after you move the stuff you need to restore the iPod to factory defaults and sync the stuff back to your iPod. If you had the iPod backup file you could restore from backup.
If you have non-iTunes pruchases you can copy them to your computer by using one of the third-party programs discussed in this previous discussion:

TS4062 I cannot find my IPOD touch listed on ITunes (there is no "Device" menu option - any advice?
I cannot find my IPOD touch listed on ITunes (there is no "Device" menu option in iTunes- any advice?). Using IPOD touch (32gb) and connecting with a laptop using Windows Vista. Downloaded the latest ITunes and it wiped all my music. I was able to recover the music purchased on Itunes (but not my CD downloads). I am having difficulty syncing my IPOD now and all of the help guides tell me that I need to use the "device" options to fix it but there is no "Device" options in my ITunes ribbon.
Just the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
Apple will not help.
If it is in your home and wifi is on and connected you can call it with FaceTime, Skype or other app that will play a notification sound and listen for it.

ITunes, TV Series - Menu display's the 853 x 480 files as well as the 1280 x 720HD files?
Hi All
Can anybody tell me why the iTunes, TV Series - Menu display's the 853 x 480 files as well as the 1280 x 720HD files?
It means when you scroll through you TV or film collections using your remote you get a duplicate title. I can understand having 2 files for viewing on the iPhone or HDTV but you would think iTunes would filter and display the files subject to how you were viewing your TV shows etc?
Can anybody tell me how to solve this?3 Items show up, all the same:
ThinkPad Display 1280 x 800
I first tried to remove, rebooted, and nothing happened.
When I went back in to device manager, they all 3 showed back up
Second time, disabled all 3, rebooted and nothing happened.
Third time tried to remove 2 of the 3, nothing happened.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated!!

Problems with artwork displaying in iTunes but not on iPod screen
I have iTunes (7.6) and a 5th gen, 80GB, firmware 1.2.3 iPod.
Not infrequently, I find that a song's artwork is visible in iTunes, but not on the iPod itself. Sometimes the artwork is displayed simply as a black rectangle on the iPod.
The converse situation also sometimes happens - when album info is retrieved from the CDDB, sometimes album artwork is also retrieved - but this is not displayed in the iTunes software, only on the iPod.
And yes, the "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox is selected in iTunes.
Does anyone have any more info about this?
Are there any restrictions on image file formats? Maximum size? Type? Interlaced or not?
Last time I asked this question I got zero response
It is an irritating problem, cos there's no way to check what the artwork looks like on the iPod without disconnecting it from my PC :/OK to drag this thread back on topic:
I think the "sync" thing is irrelevant anyways.
What I tried in the end was viewing my iPod in iTunes,
navigating through to the check box for "display album artwork",
UNcheck it, and click apply.
At this point, iTunes said, with NO confirmation "Are you sure?" dialog, "DELETING ARTWORK ON iPOD" !! :-O I was not pleased
However I then re-selected the "display album artwork" box and clicked Apply. The process took about 10 minutes to complete.
When I then disconnected the iPod, the black squares were gone, and the artwork was NOT deleted (phew!) and was displaying correctly. I was pleased
The amount of "other" megabytes on the display in iTunes for my iPod's contents had shrunk.
I dunno what all this actually did - are the artwork files embedded in the MP4 files on the iPod? Or are they stored seperately and linked to them?
I'm wondering if the "black square" thing is caused by an MP4 having an embedded image, and there also being a conflicting image file elsewhere on the hard drive? But this is just guessing.
