  • "Recently Updated" on iPod Touch Only Shows Music, not Podcasts

    I have a 'Recently Updated' smart Playlist in iTunes, set for 'Added in the Last Week' and 'Live Update'. The iTunes 'Recently Added' shows music, podcasts and movies, but when sync'ed, the iPod Touch (3rd Gen, 32GB) 'Recently Added' only shows music.
    Tried setting 'Media Type' to 'Podcasts' and 'Music' but it results in an empty playlist...
    Any ideas?
    TIA,

    There are some known quirks with how smart playlists sync to the Touch. In theory the contents (and sort order) should match when you compare the playlist on the Touch vs. your iTunes library, but that's not the case due to a bug in the 3.1.x OS on your Touch.
    As a workaround you can try un-checking the Live Updating option, but then that not only disables Live Updating on the Touch it also disables it in iTunes, so you'd have to re-check this option and then un-check it again each time you re-sync.
    Another possibility is to define a mixed-logic smart playlist:
    Date Added Is In The Last Week
    AND
    (Media Kind is Music) OR (Media Kind is Podcast)
    You can do this as follows:
    1- Enter your Date Added criteria
    2- Click on the (...) to "indent" the next criteria.
    3- Add the criteria "Media Kind Is Music"
    4- Click the "+" button to the right of this criteria, then add "Media Kind Is Poscast"
    5- Set the top match rule to "All" and set the 2nd match rule (after your Date Added criteria) to "Any".

  • IPod doesn't show Album Artwork

    There are several albums in my iTunes that have the artwork in iTunes, but the artwork doesn't show up on my new nano. I read on the apple website the following instructions on how to display album artwork, however when I get to STEP 2, the only option on the music tab for my iPod is "sync music". There is no "display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox. I have a 5th generation nano and there are some album artworks that DO show up on my nano...I just can't figure out how to get the rest of them...
    For iTunes 7 or later
    1. Select your iPod under the Devices section in the iTunes Source pane.
    2. Select the Music tab of the iPod settings. The iPod settings are displayed to the right in the main iTunes window.
    3. Select the "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox.
    4. Click Apply to save the changes. The iPod begins to update as soon as Apply is clicked.

    can anyone help me??

  • IPOD DOESN'T SHOW MUSIC! PLEASE HELP!

    I have no idea what happened. At first I saw a white screen and then I reset it. Finally the menu showed up as normal, but when I go to music, it does not list anything even though I listened to it just yesterday afternoon and it was fine. It's fully charged. I plugged it into my Windows computer, and it connects fine, my computer recognizes it but then even in iTunes it shows the amount of used/free space accurately except that the files on it that are music and account for 3.73 GB are shown as "other" in orange. So obviously the songs didn't disappear, but I really don't understand... Please help me!! Thanks!

    Restore the iPod.

  • IPod Nano not showing movie artwork in list view.

    h title says it all. If you look at the photo over here, you see the videos icons are not displayed at the bottom of the screen in list view. Normally artworks will scroll from right to left gradually if artworks are present.
    These are my own videos (no bought from itunes), and they all have artworks. These artworks shows up in itunes but not in my ipod.
    Anyone knows how to get the icon showing in ipod nano?

    Connect your iPod to the computer and when the summary comes up click on the restore button and see if that works.

  • Ipod isn't showing certain artwork

    i dropped some artwork onto a track on my iPod, and even though when I look in iTunes it's there, it doesn't actually show up on my iPod.
    Why would that be?

  • IPod classic only shows music when connected to computer

    I'm having a problem with my 160 GB iPod classic.  Last week, I had it connected to my car stereo (as I always do), and when I unplugged it to plug in headphones while I was shopping, it said "no songs," apparently everything had been erased.  When I plugged it back in to my macbook, it had in fact lost all my music, and before I could put anything back on, I had to reformat it in disk utility.  Then, I restored and started putting music back on, which took several hours (actually a couple days), because on my computer my music is 320kbps and I have it set to convert to 128 to go on ipod.  When it was finished, I ejected it, and it again said "no songs."  I plugged it back into the computer, and it shows all the songs, and allows me to play from the iPod in iTunes.  Has anyone else had this problem?  It seems to be working fine when connected, but on its own, nothing.  I use a macbook, and this is the only computer I connect it to (and it is not set to sync automatically).  Battery is fully charged.

    Looks like your car stereo, may have damage the hardisk, due to unreliable power supply or hard bump.
    Do a disk diagnostic, here is the old post by regular contributor -tt2.

  • Ipod classic 160gb showing music playing but no sound with headphone headunit aux cable or hardwired car stereo

    last week i had my ipod classic 160gb plugged into my ford falcon fg xr6 ipod connectivity hardwire for the car stereo as i have had for over a year now since i only ever take it out to update music and software. i unplugged it and was using an iphone 5 in the meantime for about 2 hours while my ipod classic was updating. when i connected my ipod classic the connection is fine i can browse files and songs like normal but no sound comes out of the speakers. i thought my car was stuffed but i have tried it on alpine pioneer kenwood aftermarket units through an ipod cable which i have done hundreds of times in the truck i drive as well as tryin to connect headphones as well as an aux cable to play through the speakers all to no avail.   the ipod works fine i can scroll throught lists the seconds and minutes of the song or video roll on by so it is playing but no sound is being produced.
    if anyone could help me with this ASAP it would be greatly appreciated and i would be one grateful man to have my music back. thank you in advance

    Hello Brutl6,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPod classic.  You have gone through some really good steps to isolate the issue. I recommend continuing with the steps in the following article to further isolate and troubleshoot the issue of no audio when connected to headphone or speakers:

  • Problems With Showing Album Artwork On The ipod

    I tried to look in the support pages, everywhere, and i asked here, but it didn't help.
    my ipod wont show album artworks.
    when i try:
    Edit-Preferences-ipod-music
    and mark the 'Display album artwork on your ipod',
    and then OK, it shows me an error window:
    'The ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-50).'
    I don't know what to do, please help me.
    I have an ipod nano 4GB
    and a PC computer, Windows XP,
    if that can help you...
    Thanks alot.

    I found the problem.
    You have to display the album artwork in your itunes
    library before you transform the song to the ipod.
    Then, it will show.
    thanks for helping .
    Ella L, can you elaborate on what you mean (and the steps to take) because I've got the same error message as you had and now some tracks show album artwork, some don't, some show the wrong ones, etc.
    Thanks.

  • 80GB ipod Classic not showing any Music loaded on it

    I have an 80GB Classic Model No A1238. Suddenly the ipod has stopped showing any playlist or music that was there on it. But the ipod shows 56.4gb used and 17.9GB Free which means it still has the data but in the summary it shows Songs 0, Videos 0, Podcast 0 etc... How can i recover the music and make it appear ? Will i have to restore the ipod or there is a way recover ? Please help.

    Sounds like the iPod's file system and databases have been corrupted possibly due to a damaged/failing hard drive or failed sync operating with iTunes.  So yes, the only way to try and recover is to restore the iPod to factory settings.

  • The music I have purchased on my IPod are not showing up on my ITunes library on my computer

    The music I have purchased on my IPod is not showing up on my Itunes account on my computer, I went to the itunes store on my computer and went to see if I could download a song i previously purchased, but it was going to have me pay again. I have about a hundred songs missing on my computers itunes. It won't let me sync my ipod to it anymore and when I tried to update the software it wouldn't let me. I am completely at a standstill with this.

    Then you're doing something wrong.  Are you signed in with the same Apple ID on the computer that the content was purchased with?
    Did you check the purchase history?

  • Video and audio not sync when i play all forms of video. from music videos, to tv shows. but they play perfect on my iPod. and tv shows display out of order on iPod, but in correct order on iTunes/computer. I even ran a virus check just to make sure.

    audio and video do not syncronize.  all forms of videos. music videos to tv shows.  what do i need to do the syncronize them again
    they are in sync on iPod, but not on computer.
    another issue that might be from the same cause is, the order of episodes of the tv shows i have downloaded,   they appear in order on computer, but on iPod they show out of order.
    any tips on how to fix this would very much help.
    thank you.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    An old version of iTunes will cause this and mess up the videos on your iPod. Always make sure you always use an up-to-date version of iTunes.
    Make sure all the software on your computer is up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Updating iPod's Software
    You will then need to restore the iPod and then let iTunes update your iPod and put your music, videos, etc. back onto your iPod...

  • When playing music from Ipod in my car, music suddenly stops and message appears to restore in iTunes.  After a few minutes, it starts to play again.  I hear a click and the apple logo shows on the screen.  Any ideas??

    You may need to do a Restore in iTunes.
    Clicking sounds from an iPod that has a hard drive is probably not a good thing.  It is possible that your iPod's hard drive is becoming unreliable.

  • IPod touch full but wont show music or videos

    I just downloaded itunes 10 and threw a bunch of movies onto my ipod. I went to go watch them today at work and it says there is no video and no music on my ipod. but when i look at General>About> there are no songs no videos but there is only 178 mb avail on a 16gb ipod. so the Ipod is full but nothing is showing up. any ideas?

    Here's what I've noticed with my 2nd generations iPod Touch since upgrading to iOS 4.
    I'll download some new content, a couple of podcasts let's say. iTunes shows that I have nine (9) unplayed podcasts. I'll manually tell iTunes to sync the changes to my iPod but when that process completes, I'll notice that the iPod only shows eight (8) podcast present on the device. So I manually tell iTunes to sync again, this time the missing podcast gets transferred to the device and now iTunes and the iPod Touch both show that they have nine (9) podcasts.
    But there's a problem. Before manually sync'ing the first time, iTunes says that there is .19 GB of "Other" content on my iPod Touch. After manually sync'ing the second time however, that number grows to .29 GB.
    So here's what I think is happening. The podcast that didn't sync the first time gets trapped on the device as "other" content because its transfer during the first sync process fails. Now that space isn't recovered on the iPod Touch device unless you "restore" your device. Not good! I think a bug needs a killing.
