  • Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync

    Download new itunes update and now it wont let me sync. Keeps saying I need 26gb of free space which it didn't say before I downloaded the update. It doesn't make sense. It keeps saying:
    The iPod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library. (additional 26gb required)
    This makes no sense because before the new itunes update there was no problem with me not having enough space. I have 5gb of free space now and I had 5gb of free space before I downloaded the itunes update. Nothing should've changed. And I should not need an extra 26gb of space. How do i fix this problem so I can my ipod normally again.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.
    What is the Other on my iPhone and How to Remove It
    What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?
    and as necessary:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • After a new Itunes update, itunes now treats me like a new customer, all of my podcasts playlists have gone??

    After a new Itunes update Itunes no longer has my playlists, music or podcasts, It thinks i am a new customer. Also internet explorer will not work and goes to "front page" ? What has happened, have I got a bug?

    Read this Apple Discussion Thread and possible solutions. The audio jack has been the main culprit, also certain sync and automation settings including connected remotes.

  • Anyone having problems downloading new iTunes update?

    After trying to download the new iTunes update received an error notice that said iTunes was not installed properly and I needed to re-install.
    I cannot even access the iTunes program.

    Hopefully you will be able to avoid upgrading, this freeze issue you're having might be a good thing if it means that os6 has failed to be installed. os6 is not looking good. I didn't read the reviews before I accepted the "up" grade. Now it seems it's too late. Hope you can get your answer and can use this stalled "up" grade to revert to os5!

  • After downloading new Itunes version, Iphone won't appear

    I have gone on the apple website to see how to fix it, but nothing worked.   Before downloading new Itunes version, my Iphone showed up just fine this morning.  Any suggestions??

    Welcome to the Forums!
    This is very strange. I would give Apple a call; they'll know better than I what to do.

  • IPod wont sync to laptop after installing newer itunes update

    I installed an itunes update and after restarting my computer it would not sync at all. Also when plugged into my computer it no longer showed up as "Jims iPod" but just "Apple iPod" under devices where i cannot edit it in anyway. I uninstalled iTunes and re-installed it then getting the message " iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because of a newer version of iTunes" i did some tinkering (renamed itunes library as library.itl" and iTunes was able to open again however still couldnt sync. WHAT DO I DO? I have tried everything and its not appearing in iTunes at all.

    Try:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

  • I haven't been able to access the iTunes store for almost a year, having been knocked out after downloading an iTunes update. With the most recent update, I can no longer access radio broadcasts as well.

    To solve the iTunes store problem, I have tried the suggestions suggested by Apple on the website to no avail.  Since downloading the last iTunes update, I can no longer access radio broadcasts.  It tries to connect to tuning service, but the refreshing catagory list notice never stops and connection is never made.  No store connection and no classical radio connection--What will I loose with the next update?  I'm not a computer person and don'y know what to do!  Help would be much appreciated.  Thank you!

    No store connection
    Could you walk us through what happens when you try to connect to the Store in some more detail, please?

  • CONNECTION CUT OFF MINUTES AFTER DOWNLOADING NEW ITUNES

    After downloading the "new and improved" download for Itunes, my connection was lost. I tried to reopen my connection many many times. Verizon Broadband didn't have any issues. My mother's computer worked fine--she still had access. I think something about the Itunes doesn't like my wireless router, or vice-versa. I had to delete the new Itunes program, and now I can get online again! I DON'T LIKE THIS NEW ITUNES! DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED HERE????????

    Ok delete ichat and re-install.
    Put in your install disk 1(the disk that came with your mac) then after the disk has opened double click on "Optional installs" then double click on the "Optional installs.mpkg".
    Then when you get to "Custom install......." click on the triangle by appications and then tick iChat and then continue with the install.
    When done download and install the 10.5.5 combo to bring iChat back up to date.

  • After downloading new Itunes warning from I Tunes assistan about drivers

    After updating to the new itunes all of a sudden my itunes assistant says; "Warning! The registry used by itunes drivers for importing and burning cd's and dvd's are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other cd burning software please reinstall itunes."
    I do this reinstall and the same thing pops up. I have NOT isnatlled any other music burning software. Why does this keep happening, any solutions?
    Peace
    carlos

    I finally got everything reloaded. It was a trial and error process without a logical sequence or specific way of retracing the logic of how I did it. Some pointers from my experience (which could be unique to me).
    1. use only the previous updater.
    2. when updating the i-pod, make sure that you stop the process before all of the songs on i-tunes download. (I created some dummy songs at the end so as to get all the songs I wanted on the i-pod.) For some reason, if I let the updater run through all the songs, NOTHING showed up on the i-pod... it erased all of them.
    3. be prepared to do this over and over again until you get the i-pod back up to speed. I can't tell you how many times I thought I "had it fixed" only to discover that the update left no songs on the i-pod.
    Good luck with this. It really is absurd.

  • My iphone 5 is not showing up in itunes after downloading new itunes

    Is there a fix? Thanks

    See section 5 of TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows.
    If that doesn't help it may pay to tear down and reinstall iTunes in the following manner...
    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I found a 16 GB Touch streamside in AK.  The device survived the elements and charged but is password protected.  If I could I would contact the owner but there is no related resource through Apple to do so.  Suggestions?  or trash?

    Apple's solution is to contact the local police..lame at best.  They want $30 dollars for me to talk to them.  I would have liked to give them the SN and have them contact the person via email with my email address so we could make contact.  I am not paying $30 to perform this good deed.
    If there is no way to get past the pass code to identify the owner and Apple won't help, then it is the person's loss and it is unfortunate.
    Any ideas or suggestions short of paying is my last attempt at getting this to the owner.

    Nope, you've covered it.  Apple stays out of matters like this.
    I'd recommend contacting the police to see if anyone filed a report over it, but you already did that.
    You did what you can, trying to do the right thing.  Good for you!
    Unfortunately, the former owner may be out of luck, and you may have just inherited an iPod.

    at wits end..  don't know what else to do...  I already tried to reset phone and still goes back to same screen

        Hello crawford1968, your efforts are appreciated! Was there any physical or water damage on the phone? The factory reset is the last resort option. Have you tried letting the phone's battery drain and then charge the device to see if the power on will respond? We can definitely look into replacement options since the device is not responding.
