IPod Music Problem... Help

I recently made a playlist for my songs. But when I touch any songs it will play the reverse one not the one I touched. Say I have 60 song and I touched song 43, when I do it will play song 42. What is going on? It rarely happens and it worked like a charm last time I tried. How can I fix this? I already tried rebooting it but it didn't work so please help me

  • IPod Music Problems with the Latest Version

    So I am happily using my iPod and iTunes 7 software with my Win2000 notebook and everything was working great.
    Then I get a notice that there was a new version of iTunes (7.1) and do I want to download. So I download and then install the new version. All seemed well.
    The next day, I go to work outside and I plug in my iPod to go to work and instantly notice, all my music is gone from it. And I think to myself, well that was really nice of the software upgrade to erase all my music off the iPod... some upgrade.
    I open iTunes and see that it still sees all my music on the computer. Then I hook up the iPod and open the little icon to see what's on the iPod and all music seems to be shown there but it's all grayed out.
    If I use the iPod menu to look for music, there is nothing shown on the iPod... no music, no playlists, nothing.
    I did a restore using iTunes which seemed to erase the iPod and then a sync. During this process, I could see all the music being copied back to the iPod. Later, when it was done, I took the iPod outside with me to work and all my music was present and played fine.
    Later I came back in and hooked the iPod up for a re-charge. My wife was about travel so I handed the iPod to her. Later I found out from her that there was no music on the iPod... she was not pleased.
    So I look and sure enough, there is a later iTunes software update (7.1.1). I figure, there was a bug in the software and they have quickly recognized it and fixed it. So I download and install this version.
    Same problem. No music on the iPod.
    What's going on here? Do I have to go back to version 7 to get a functioning iPod again?
    Thanks!

    I'm having a similar problem since the update, but iTunes seems to be a bit more selective for me. Even though it is shown under audiobooks under the iPod on the taskbar to the left of iTunes, the latest audiobook I purchased from the store--Wintersmith--is not showing up on my actual iPod. I've tried restoring my iPod, etc., and it simply won't show up. So far, all of the help topics I've looked at have really kinda failed to answer this problem with a specific solution; they all seem to follow the "try resetting it and see what happens" script. Is no one concerned about what specifically is happening, why it happens, and how to make the iPod function properly without having to reset it every time a glitch comes along?
    Any insight appreciated.

  • 2nd Generation Ipod Touch Problem- Help please!

    Hello,
    I have a brand new ipod touch 2nd generation and when I start a podcast, only on occassion, the play icon in the top right corner blinks very rapidly and the podcast does not play at all. It as as though the ipod touch is playing and stopping play of the podcast at very high speeds! When I push the home button, and try to get back into my music list, the same problem occurs. When I hit the home button, the arrow for play is still blinking rapidly and then I have to restart my ipod touch. It is very frustrating as I can't play the podcasts that I have enjoyed on my ipod classic!
    Please help me!

  • Fixed my iPod music problem

    After many hours and lots of reading on this support community, I've finally got my music back. It was a matter of copying all the music into the iPod library on the new computer from my external hard drive. But it's taken a number of hours to re-create the Playlists, erase duplicates and generally tidy up. But I've done it.......yipee

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • Ipod Music Problem

    Why does my music on my ipod disappear after its already been placed onto it?

    Reset the iPod touch by holding down the Home and Hold button until the Apple logo appears (ignore the slide to off option). Wait for the iPod to start up and see if it happens again. If it does, then do a restore of the iOS software. The restore option is in iTunes when the iPod is plugged in. Restoring basically reinstalling the operating system on the iPod.

    Try resetting your iPod:
    Move the hold switch back and forth so that it ends up in the "Off" position (no orange color showing).
    Then, hold the MENU and SELECT (center) buttons until you see an Apple logo on the screen.
    Then release the buttons, and let the iPod start back up... and your iPod should be back up and running.
    Best wishes,

  • Ios 7 ipod music problem

    I've updated my iPod touch to ios 7.0.4 today and now it won't let me play any music. It just skips through without as much as a note. How do I persuade it to play again. Why did I bother 'upgrading' to this awful os when the old one worked so well. Resetting does not seem to work.

  • HELP - iPod Update Problem

    Just joined the Forum after reading some of the posts here - you guys seem to know alot more about this than me so any help is greatly appreciated.
    My 30Gb 5th Gen iPod has software version 1.2.3. iTunes tells me there is a version 1.3 available but when I try to update it I get an unknown error message (1417).
    I've been through the support pages and have done the 5 R's as recommended but my iPod won't restore - not even to the early version. I get an unknown error message (1418) when I try to restore.
    On trying to just synch the iPod without updating the software iTunes tells me that my PC is not authorised to play over 100 tracks and it has now removed them from my iPod even after I have signed in to authorise my computer over 30 times when the messages appear!!
    This is the only computer I have used to update my iTunes and iPod for over 2 years now and it is running fine. I've had no problems until now and usually update every 2 - 3 months.
    I need help to get my iPod updated to the latest software and to get my iPod / iTunes to recognise that my computer is authorised to play the music.
    Help please - I've been trying to get this thing to work for hours!!
    Cheers, Al

    Thanks Jeff but I've been through these steps on two or three occasions before I joined the forum and they haven't done any good.
    The other reply tells me to re-format the iPod.
    Is this a good idea or would I just be left with a (semi) useless portable drive?
    If I were to consider this would I do it through "My Computer" and format the drive or explore the drive and just delete all the content?
    I don't want to do anything that'll be un-recoverable. Let's face it I am still able to use the iPod at the moment and although I've lost access to 100 songs I still have over 3000 songs to keep me going! All I really want to do is update the software and keep it updated.
    Another thread suggested the removal of iTunes and iPod updater software from the PC and then re-installation. Any views on that solution?

  • Need help with my iPod music library

    I made a back-up of my iPod music library by enabling disk use and copying the music folder from the iPod_Control folder. I recently had to restore (some minor problems when I installed iTunes 7 and updated my iPod), and I moved the songs from the backup music folder to my iPod. All of the files transfered, but my iPod doesn't show the new library. I'm assuming that I have to refresh the library, maybe by deleting the old library file somehow. Any advice? I had songs on my iPod that I no longer have acceess to due to my laptop dying, so simply resynching to my current iTunes library won't help, and I'd rather not look through all the crazy folders in my backup to find my missing tracks. Thanks!

    The iPod usually won't view the songs properly unless iTunes puts them on there.
    But, you have that folder, which is a good thing.
    I would have iTunes update your iPod with those songs.
    In iTunes, go to File-->Add folder to library. Add the iPod_Control folder to the library.
    iTunes will import all of those songs into your iTunes library with the correct names and everything. Then you can update your iPod with iTunes and get all your music on there and recognized. Do not delete or move the folder once you add it to iTunes, as iTunes may be reading the music from it, and moving it may not allow you to play songs in your iTunes library.
    I would restore your iPod before you put the music on there though, as the music you manually added to the iPod may be taking up space and iTunes won't be able to fill that space with music.
