IPod restored, but now wont put my songs/videos back on

I was walking the other day, when I tripped. I was holding my iPod and it fell out of my hands and slammed onto the sidewalk. It was scrached but working, so i thought it was fine. So, when I got home, I plugged my iPod into the computer. It charged, and when i tried to play music again, i found that my ipod had lost all of its memory. I plugged it in again and my computer said i needed to restore it, so I did. Then, when I tried to put the songs on again, it got to about 85, and froze. So i disconnected it and tried again. The same thing happened. I let it rest. The next day I tried again and it got to only 10 songs and froze. But i am able to play the songs on my iPod, but I have 1000 and only 85 are on the iPod. I think my hard drive may have been messed up, but I dont know. Does anyone have any advice on my problem?

*I think my hard drive may have been messed up...*
I believe that you're probably correct if the iPod hit a concrete sidewalk. You might have had a prayer if your were on an asphalt driveway.
In any event, you might wish to try this sequence before you give up.
Good luck.

  • Ipod restore problem, now wont turn on

    I have an ipod video 30 gb.
    Yesterday, i plugged it into my Powermac,
    but when i accidentally unplugged it while it said "do not disconnect", it froze.
    I had to hold the center button and menu to reset it, but now when i try and turn it on,
    it will go to the apple screen for a second, then shut off.
    It will keep going to the apple screen and shutting off until the battery runs out.
    I have tried to restore it, but now it wont show up in the computer.
    I have tried everything, and if anyone has any suggestions other than to restore, please let me know.
    i have tried
    -to run out the battery
    -recharge fully
    -go to the diagnostics menu for a full test
    -reseting
    and i have been looking through support and discussions for hours...
    please help, there is no warranty left and
    i do not have 300 dollars for another ipod...

    - Try restoring from a backup that include the photos. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you use PhotoStream you should be able to get the last 30 days worth from your PhotoStream. See:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

    You have to update to 10.6.8 first.
    Then, if your machine qualifies, this explains how to get Mavericks:

  • After doing the iOS6 update, i had to restore my iPod. But now I can't seem to find my pictures. Is there anyway to get pictures back?

    I wanted to update my iPod and after I had done it, it told me I had to restore the iPod. But now after the back-up none of the photos i had are being put back onto it. Is there a way I can get these pictures back?

    - Did you restore from a backup that contained the photos?
    - The backup only contains photos in the iPod's Camera Roll album. It does not included photos synced to the iPod.
    - All you can do is try restoring from backup again.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - 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.

  • I know how to add lyrics to a song in iTunes and then see them on my iPod. But now I'm interested in watching those lyrics on my windows pc...can I and how do I do that ?

    I know how to add lyrics to a song in iTunes and then see them on my iPod. But now I'm interested in watching those lyrics on my windows pc...can I ? What do I do so than I can see the lyrics of the song while it plays ?

    This is the correct behavior. When you play a song, the play count and last played time gets updated. When you resync the iPod, the track gets copied to the iPod to update these new changed fields.
    There is no fix for this, this is what it is supposed to do.

  • I put my iPod charging, but it wont charge. The Apple logo appears on the screen for five seconds and then it goes off again. Afterwards, it does it again and again and again. I can leave it 1 hour or day charging and it will be doing this the whole time.

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Iv just updated my iphone4s and restored but it wont turn on

    iv just updated my iphone 4s throught itunes and done a restore but now it wont turn on showing usb and itunes logo

    It sounds like your battery may be worn out (they don't last forever) or maybe your power adapter is faulty? Have you tried charging it using another adapter or by plugging it into a computer's USB port instead?
    You said your iPhone was not good with battery life before this, it's a pity you didn't find out why this was before the battery failed (if that's what's happened), it may have been a particular app or whatever. For help with battery issues read http://www.scottyloveless.com/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-batter y-drain and do as it says, it should help you track down the source of your battery drain issue.

  • I did a factory reset on my ipod touch, but now when i try turning it on it just goes to the apple screen with the loading sign

    i did a factory reset on my ipod touch but now when i try turning it on it just goes to the apple screen with a loading sign, ive let my battery die and tried reconnecting but it still wont work. it doesnt even come up on itunes.

    Why won't it let you sync?  What happens when you try to sync it? Any error messages from iTunes?  How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  In other words, what options do you have selected from under the iPod's Music tab in iTunes?  To access this tab, plug your iPod in, select it under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes, and over to the right locate and select the Music tab along the top.
    Or are you trying to manually manage your iPod's contents?  In other words, is the Manually manage music and videos option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab?

    Hey renie1515,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    When you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID. This article describes how to manage these associations.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days.
    Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90-day timer. You must wait 90 days from the day the device was first associated with your Apple ID before it can be associated with another Apple ID.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario
