IPod mini "playlist" error message will not allow me to transfer songs

When I plug my iPod mini into the computer to transfer songs, I get an error message that says that the songs could not be transferred due to non-existent playlists. I deleted my playlists after this message...and I still get the same error message. I have songs in my iTunes library, but now my iPod mini has no songs on it.
Thank you for the help!

Thank you so much for the link!
Actually, I managed to side-step doing the manual playlist by clicking the first option under the iPod options...I can't remember what it was, but I decided to take a chance and now it is loading all of my songs, one song at a time. Thanks for helping, I was really nervous that I lost all my songs.

    My Playlist only appear in the itunes when the ipod is connected , and I can not drag a song into a playlist, Also I repeatedly get a message to authorize the songs purchased in order to sync the ipod. I followed the instructions in the help menu on doing this but nothing seems to work, Help anybody ? Have installed the lastest version of itunes and I'm running windows XP.   Thanks

    Is it possible that you are not seeing the thirteenth song because you did not scroll all the way down within the playlist?
    Hope this helps!

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Am syncing my iPhone 4 to a new laptop. It will not allow me to transfer music from this new laptop/iTunes to my phone. Why? And how do i fix this?

    Hi there,
    I have a new laptop.
    I have music on my laptop that I have not purchased through iTunes (ie, uploaded CD's, copied to my laptop from my old computer, etc).
    For some reason, iTunes will not allow me to transfer this music to my iPhone. I get the "red circle with the cross through it" symbol when I try to drop it into the iPhone..
    Can someone suggest a way that I can oversome this and add my music to my phone from my new computer?
    At this stage, I can only add music to it via the old iTunes/old computer that the phone was originally synced to.
    Cheers

  • ITunes will not allow me to put songs on my Ipod...

    I updated my itunes and ipod and everything. I've had my ipod for a year now and have never had a problem like this. I drag my songs from my music folder onto my ipod itunes area and it says it's putting it on my ipod but when it finishes the song(s) are nowhere to be found. I have like 2500 songs on my ipod and numerous videos so it's not like I've never done this before. It only happened when I updated to the new iTunes so I figured I'd uninstall it and put back the old itunes I had which was iTunes6.0.5 and I get this error now when I try and open it:
    [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f161/puhpuhplaya2/itunes.jpg[/IMG]
    Can anyone either please tell me how to fix that error or tell me how to fix the problem with the new iTunes because I'll re-install it if someone can help. Thanks.

    I installed itunes 06 and now it will not allow me to put my purchased songs on my ipod. I get the notice that my computer is not authorized. Yet, each time I try to authorize it, I receive the notice that authorization was successful and there is only one computer authorized. I never had this problem before I installed itunes '06. Can anyone help? It sounds like the same problem the person before me had.

  • E-mail error message relaying not allowed

    New MacBook Pro user on the roaqd for the first time. using different web connections and unable to send or recieve e-mail...keep getting message "relaying not allowed" Read other forum answers but no help for a dummy

    This is probably an issue with whatever provider you are using on the road to connect to your email provider's server. If it is a hotel or such, try asking how (or if) you can use your own account. Otherwise, it may be a managed connection that allows only selected users to use it.
    IOW, you will have to ask the administrator or equivalent for help.

  • Ipod nano firewire error and will not turn off! PLEASE help

    I am having the exact same problem as I see may of you unfortunate Apple users are. I am receiving the error message about firewires and I have never used one. The nano will not turn off and I have to let the battery run out. The play/pause function works perfectly fine, but not to turn off the nano. The sleep function does not do anything either. I am so disappointed with Apple because they would not help me on the phonbe since it is well past my first 90 days of ownership. I may have gotten a single drop of water on it, but that was about 2 weeks ago, and still having the same problems. I don't know what to do, but I see that Apple has gotten mighty rich off of their JUNK products! Anyone out there, help me please!

    Do a reset.  You will not lose any data: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If this does not help resore from a backup.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Lastly try restoring to factory settings.
    If none of this works, it's probably a hardware problem.  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your Apple store.  You are under warranty and they will fix or replace it on the spot.

  • Ipod Touch software 4 sale will not allow me to click 'No Thanks'

    I have an Ipod Touch software version 1.1.3 and Itunes 7.6.0.29. Every time I connect my Ipod Itunes is supposed to automatically connect and begin synchronizing with my computer. However I am being sold some new upgrade of software for my Ipod because I didn't pay enough money for it, evidently to get free software upgrades. When I click the button that says "No Thanks" I get an error message from the Itunes Store that says it can't process my request. I get it each and every time I connect my Ipod. It sure seems like I am being force fed that software. What part of NO doesn't the Itunes store understand? Really guys it sure feels like I am being harassed to buy this thing and i don't want it. What is the fix? I have already reinstalled the Ipod software and that didn't work.

    That is a pretty glib answer. Not one title on the Itunes support web pages addresses the issue of the Ipod Touch software having an inability to connect with the Itunes Store. Can you please be specific? Where specifically am I to find the answer to this question?
    Didn't mean to be glib, rude, etc...Just tried to throw you a help section that MIGHT hold your answer. Doesn't look like anyone else is helping. Sorry I couldn't give you the exact answer.
    I'm even going to suggest another one: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/
    Have you tried posting your questions in the iPhone discussion forums?
    I see you're newly registered so just as an FYI in case you didn't know the only "guys" in here are users like yourself. You are not directly addressing anyone from Apple. Just others like yourself who have a problem or try to help those who have problems.

  • Error message will not go away

    Any steps I take in Photoshop end up with an error message saying it "cannot complete my request due ro a program error "--- clicking OK does not make it go away.. I've used the trouble shooting suggestions and reinstalled. I also tried the alternative login, disk utility, cocktail, and reinstalling all my CS3 programs
    I'm a long time Mac user and had never encountered this before.
    Please help as this is day 2 spent trying to resolve this this problem. I fear I'll have to reinstall my operating system which will be a nightmare in terms of saving and all it entails.
    Thanks for anything,

  • Epson N515 error message will not print

    epson printer will not print.  error messasge: "rastertoescpll quite unexpectantly"
    Any fix available

    Step 1
    Open the Sharing pane in System Preferences. If the Computer Name is not set, enter a name. You may first have to click the lock icon in the lower left corner and authenticate to unlock the settings. Then reinstall the EPSON update.
    Credit for this solution to ASC user Yuengdog1983.
    Step 2
    If there's no improvement after Step 1, restore the following folder from the last backup you made before the EPSON update:
    /Library/Printers/EPSON
    You may have to reset the printing system for the change to become effective.

  • IPod Mini is Dead and will not charge or respond

    My daughter has a 4GB second generation iPod Mini. It has worked fine, other than a few freeze ups every now and then, for several years. Yesterday it stopped working altogether. We have tried charging overnight with the AC charger but still there is no sign of life. Her iMac does not recognize it and we cannot get it to turn on. There is no charging icon when it is plugged in. It appears to be totally dead. Prior to this the battery still had reasonable running life. She would get about 6 to 8 hours of playback time per charge.
    We have tried toggling the "hold" button. Nothing seems to work. I would appreciate any ideas.

    I got tied up and forgot to respond to the earlier post. The iPod Mini is back in working order. While I had tried a reset procedure before and got no where, I tried it again. Finally on the third attempt the "apple" logo appeared and all was well. Since I had not gotten any response from the Mini the first time I tried a reset, I assumed that the resetting procedure would not work. So a good lesson to this is to attempt re-setting several times if it does not work the first time.
    Thanks to all that took the time to contribute.
