Ipod Nano lost all tunes

My ipod nano lost all stored tunes whilst on the road and I have no idea why. Had to reload everything. What could I have done wrong? Or is there a glitch?

1. susan your question does not pertain to this topic (1 album vs. all music)
2. if you have a question post your own topic
3. copy the album on again or look harder.

  • Ipod nano lost all songs- tried to restore and wont

    Hi, I hope someone ca help me.
    The ipod nano lost songs. when connected to itunes- all songs seemed to be able to be loaded onto the device- but once disconnected they were not there.
    Then tried to restore (didn't need update) and it said that it wouldn't restore because ipod files are used by another application- (not that I am aware???)
    I did the diagnostic test thing and it said:
    Intel(R) 82801DB/DBM USB2 Enhanced Host Controller - 24CD , PCI bus 0, device 29, function 7. WARNING: problem with device.
    Obviously a problem with device.....Any clues- in very simple english- as I am a beginner- it took me hours to find this discussion forum!!!

    "all songs seemed to be able to be loaded onto the device- but once disconnected they were not there."
    This Apple knowledge-base article may help address that issue.

    This is in the iPad forum, but anyway, your music should still be in iTunes. What happens when you try to sync your iPod with iTunes?

    I don't think so.  You should post your question with an informative title, not just "HELP".  You may get better replies.  Try this "iPhone Accidentally Restored as iPod - Data Lost"

  • I accidentally reset my iPod and lost all of my pics and videos.  Any ideas how to get them back?

    I accidentally reset my iPod and lost all of my pics and videos.  Does anyone know how to restore them?

    All you can do is restore from backup if yu have one. If you backed up to iTunes make sure that autosyncing is turned off. Otherwise when you connect the iPod to the computer the backup with you data might be overwritten. To turn off go to iTunes>Preferences>Devicesand check the box that says "Prevent iPods...".

  • After I reset the iPod I lost all of the iPod contents.  When I attempted to resynch I learned the iPod did not have enough space.  How can this be so when I have nothing on the iPod?

    Please help!.

    You will prbably had other sync setting than the default ones
    Check if the option "Only sync marked songs" is checked.

    Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
    P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal.

  • Ipod nano - lost photos from ipod classic

    I had an ipod classic on my pc and then installed an ipod nano for my daughter. It automatically synched with my library. She now has my songs but cannot import any music(it takes over 1 hour to imort 16 songs -then show durations of over 400 minutes and will not play. In addition I have lost all my photographs. Can anybody over a solution or should I put the lot in the bin? I am desperate - already spent 4 hours at this! Thanks

    Pic sync is one way - computer to ipod.
    Ipod will sync pics with one computer at a time. If you sync to another, then it will first erase the current content from the ipod, then replace with content from the new computer.

  • IPod Nano Lost Serial Number

    On my Mac, somehow my 2GB Nano had lost it's serial number. As a result it was not possible to update or restore the unit. I needed to restore the unit because it was not functioning correctly.
    Interestingly I opened Windows on my Mac (Boot Camp install), where neither iTunes nor the iPod have been installed before and it went through the new install process. I entered the serial number and it reformatted and installed perfectly. It works as new on WIndows.
    I returned to the Mac operating system and still the serial number was not recognised and it would not restore. I really want the unit to work on the Mac OS as this is where all my music is stored.
    Any ideas how to re-enter the serial number?

  • IPod nano 5G:  FM Tuner - Mono   Stereo   or   HD ?

    Hi:
    What type of FM tuner is in the new Apple 5G iPod nano ?
    Mono , Stereo , or HD ???
    Thanx

    Just do a upgrade but not the iPod touch please. I was expecting to be wowed by a 3rd generation iPod Touch. Just like the Second Generation wowed me with a speaker, volume control, hidden blue tooth and new shape. These were a 1G to 2G jump.
    Faster processor and increased capacity are standard, expected, par for the course, the natural order of things, obvious, no brainers. What was the wow factor this time? What was the funky new shape? What was the speaker? What was the extra buttons?
    Face it - no thought went into the ipod touch and the nano.
    Stick with the zune HD, cheaper 16gb than the new ipod touch, hd radio, wifi enabled, OLED screen, friendly interface and most of all a new toy to play with :]

  • My Ipod has lost all my play list and when I press a app icon it does not register it., My Ipod has lost all my play list and when I press a app icon it does not register it.

    My son's Ipod touch has lost all it's music and when he selects a app this does not register and it returns to the main screen.
    It is a year old.
    We tried to restore all his music on the I Tunes libary but this also did not work.
    Can anyone one put us on the right track and restore his songs and save him moaning

    - First try resetting the iPod.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - If still problem restore the iPod from backup via iTunes on the computer
    - If still problems restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod since there may be some corruption that is also in the backup.

How can I restore my nano with this situation? any suggestion? some help??

    Hi Pace,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Does your iPod show up on the desktop. You may want to look at...
    "The Five Rs"
    Knowledge Base Document #60950 on iPod missing in iTunes and Mac desktop
    Knowledge Base Document #93718 about iPod appears on the Mac OS X desktop but not in iTunes
    iPod FAQ says,
    "Question: I have both a Mac and a PC. Will my iPod work on both?
    Answer: No, not at the same time. iPod is configured for either Mac or PC. You can use the iPod Updater to restore iPod to work with a Mac or a PC (depending on which version of the updater you use). See "Restoring iPod to factory settings" for more information. Note: Using the iPod for Mac on a PC, or using the iPod for Windows on a Mac, is not supported by Apple. FAT32 is the format used by Windows, and while some FAT32 iPod models may work with your Mac, Apple only supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac.
    Question: Can I use an iPod formatted for Mac on a PC, or an iPod formatted for Windows on a Mac?
    Answer: It is not possible to use an iPod formatted for Mac with Windows. This is because Windows does not support the HFS Plus file system and therefore will not see the drive.
    You can convert an iPod formatted for Windows into an iPod for Mac by using the iPod for Mac Software Updater on the Apple website. Note that once it is reformatted, it will only work with Macs. You need Mac OS 9.2 or Mac OS X 10.1 or later to reformat an iPod for Windows into an iPod for Mac.
    Note: Using the iPod for Mac on a PC, or using the iPod for Windows on a Mac, is not supported by Apple."

  • I just set up my ipod and lost all my calendars.  Is there a way to prevent Ipad from doing that/

    I just set up my IPad and lost all my calendars on all devices, including Outlook.  How did that happen and how can i prevent that in the future?  The only thing that i was asked about was to delete my local contacts or not.

    No backup is a bad mistake.
    The music sync is one way only - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing, File>Transfer Purchases
    Start asap always maintaining a backup of your computer.
