IPod Touch 4th Gen Sync Issue

I got an iPod Touch 4th gen last week.  I started setting it up the other day and successfully sync'd one album even after the latest iOS update.  I ripped a few cd's and wanted to add those to the iPod as of today.  However, I no longer able to sync anything.  I'm using the latest iTunes software for Windows 64 bit.  I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.  I followed the troubleshooting steps @ http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 to no avail.  When I connect the iPod to my pc, I get a sound that it connects, but it just is not recognized by iTunes.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue?  I also don't see a way to restore the backup from the iOS update.
Note:  This is my first Apple product so maybe I'm missing something obvious.

Try connecting to another computer to help determine if computer or iPod problem.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen Sync issues

    I have an iPod Touch 4th Gen but when I sync it with iTunes not all songs come across to the iPod. It's not that they are there and greyed out, they are not there at all? I have forced a sync numerous times and checked all settings to include everything to be synced but still some songs will not go across.
    All software is up to date, any ideas?

    FIXED MY SYNC PROBLEM:
    Finally found out why all of my music wasn’t syncing….. After the short sync time, a box would come up stating that there were “errors” when syncing. They were 14 tracks that had been deleted, but were still somewhere in a playlist.
    If your getting a sync error message at the end, and there was a problem with some tracks.
    Take a screen shot of the “error” list.
    Go to your Library, click on Music, then Playlists.
    Search for and delete each individual track name from the "error" list.
    Click on iPod and “Sync” again.
    Pretty silly that it wouldn't just skip those tracks and sync the rest. Hope this helps.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen Battery Issue

    My iPod Touch 4th gen drains the battery while sitting idle overnight. I listen to it all day at work with normal battery usage. When I got home I charged my touch to 100% then left it disconnected in standby mode overnight and in the morning the it is down to 50%. I checked and there are no apps running in the background. What on earth is happening? I also have a 3rd Gen Touch, with all the same apps and it does not do this.
    I have 2 4th gen Touch and they are both behaving the same way.
    Any ideas?
    Is it possible that FaceTime is polling or something?

    I am having the exact same problem. I even wiped out my ipod touch, took out all the apps, and turned off all notifications, wifi, bluetooth ect... Then I fully charged it to 100% and left it in stand-by all night. The next morning it was so dead, I had to plug it up and wait about 5-10 minutes until it would even turn on. I sent it back to apple, and they sent it back to me, saying they tried to recreat the issue but it never happened to them. I am at my wits end with it now. And when I sent it to apple, I asked them if I should take off the screen protector, because the man on the phone told me they would probable send me a new one. Well, they sent me the old one, so they made me take off a $23 screen protector, just for them to send me back the old one. I could just scream. Oh and did I mention I sent it scratch free, and got it back with a lovely arrangement of scratches on the back. Thanks apple. You will be hearing from me soon. Let me know if ayone else gets this issue resolved.

  • TS2771 iPod touch 4th gen playback issues

    Why does my iPod touch 4th gen randomly silence during playback or skips to another song

    If the music plays OK in iTunes:
    - Unsync and resync the music.
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod

  • IPod touch 1st gen sync issues

    This problem has really been frustrating me.
    For the past few weeks, whenever I attempt to sync my iPod touch with iTunes, I get errors from usbmuxd. The issues seem to occur when I try to sync a large amount of songs. Basically, when I try to sync songs, iTunes will begin to copy them to the iPod for a few minutes, then will just stop. Sometimes I get an error message from iTunes, but most of the time, I will get nothing at all. The iPod will just disappear from iTunes, but will still show "Sync in Progress" on the display. I have tried re-installing iTunes numerous times, but the problem still seems to be occurring. Here is a dump from Console.app:

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. (Is this wiping) See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. (you mayhave done this by wiping)
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPod Touch 4th gen driver issues

    My iTouch and every other iPod I have is not syncing via iTunes. I uninstalled the drivers according to Apple's guide on how to fix the issue, but it made it worse. Now with evey iPod I plug in, it doesn't see it. How do I get these drivers back onto my Windows 7 computer? I've already tried device manager and it doesn't show the "Apple Mobile Device" driver.

    Hello!.
    Maybe it's a problem with the Apple Mobile Device service that is not executing or is deactivated. Maybe it was caused by error.
    Go to Start > Control Panel > System and security > Admin Tools > Services
    Or
    Start > Execute > and type "services.msc" (without ")
    Search for "Apple Mobile Device" service. Maybe it is deactivated, if so, click on Run service. This might solve your problem. Hope this helps you.
    PS: Sorry for my bad english.
    Greetings!

  • TS4062 My daughter's ipod touch 4th Gen cannot sync over wi-fi and cannot be seen in the devices section of itunes for windows.

    My daughter's ipod touch 4th Gen cannot sync over wi-fi and cannot be seen in the devices section of itunes for windows.  I have gone through all steps of the troubleshooting guide.  All of our other ios devices are wi-fi sync-ing fine.   Can anyone help?
    Not sure how long this has been a problem.  Kids are young and I manually manage most things but recently having music synced is an issue.  All software has been kept up to date.

  • Ipod Touch 4th Gen - itunes only pretends to sync

    i have an ipod touch 4th gen 32gb (fw 4.1) that won't sync with my pc. the initial sync worked fine as all the songs and apps were transfered to the touch. now that i wanted to put some new tunes, vids and apps on it, but itunes doesn't do anything. whenever i press sync, everything looks just fine. the little window says: sync step 1, bla bla and finishes syncing without adding or deleting new/old content. i tried every option possible i could think of. i even 'downgraded' my itunes from 10.1.1 to 9.2.something.
    i found out that by clicking the little arrow next to my ipod, i was able to drag and drop my music, playlists and vids there, but what about my apps?
    the next day i tried adding new music by doing that, my whole music and video library was gone and the content of the touch won't show up in itunes anymore (when i click the arrow). and since itunes wouldn't sync my touch, i now got an ipod without any music.
    english isn't my native language, my apologies if i got some stuff wrong
    thank you guys in advance
    btw: is the equalizer issue of ios 4 solved with 4.2.1?

  • Just bought ipod touch 4th gen when i hooked it up to itunes it says wont sync because of internal error

    i just unboxed my new ipod touch 4th gen and it tells me that it can not sync because of an internal error should i return it or is there a way to fix the issue?

    I would first try connecting the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes.

  • Ipod Touch (4th gen) freezes iTunes when sync'd.

    A friend of mine has been having some problems and I have been unable to help him.  He bought a new iPod touch 4th gen at the weekend (couldn't resist the lower price or wait a few weeks until the new model) running ios 6, he has just updated itunes to 10.7 but everytime he syncs it iTunes freezes during part 5 or 6 of the sync process and does not recover.  His old nano (5th gen) syncs without issue, any ideas?  We have tried reseting the iPod to factory setings but this will only allow the iPod to sync correctly once.  When we try again iTunes freezes up.  We are pretty much at a loss, it's taken the shine of his new purchase.
    Thanks.

    From what I can recall they are preparing to or waiting for changes to be applied, I don't have my laptop to hand so I can't check at the mo.  The status bar then does nothing at all, iTunes just freezes up completely.  The moving arrows by the iPod stop circling and we have to use the task manager to close the program, just in case it restarted syncing we left it for about 20 mins without joy.  Even unplugging the ipod makes no difference.

    On January 26, 2014, I updated my iTunes software.  After doing so, my iPod Touch 4th gen no longer syncs with or is recognized by iTunes.  Reinstalling iTunes has not worked.  I suspect that this is a problem created by the iTunes update.
