  • I am getting interference on my Ipod touch on music that I sync from down loaded CDs to ITunes on my PC.  The music is clear when I play it on my PC but has the interference on the Ipod.  This just started recently.  Any thoughts?  Thanks.

    I am getting interference (scratching sound) on my Ipod touch on music that I sync from downloaded CDs to ITunes on my PC. The music is clear when I play it on my PC but has the interference on the Ipod.  This just started recently.  Any thoughts?

    Thank you so much for the reply.  I does not appear to be the headphones because I get the same interference sound from my Ihome radio when I dock by Ipod on it as well as when I connect the Ipod to the radio connection in the car.  I have isolated the issue to the Ipod because these same tunes play without interference on my PC so something is happening in the sync process.

  • IPod Touch - All Music Lost Without Syncing

    Saturday I was listening to music and my iPod Touch (2nd gen) was working fine. It has not been plugged in or synced to the computer at all since then - and now the entire Music library is missing (with the exception of two random albums). It has been plugged in to a wall charged, but not to a computer.
    Is this common? How could this have happened, and is it possible to recover this music without repurchasing? It's an 8gb Touch that was full of music. All videos, applications, etc are fine.
    The only thing I have done to "try" and recover this data is to turn the iPod Touch off, then back on. No luck.
    Any suggestions?

    Additional information: I had my laptop iTunes and iPod Touch set up to sync music manually - it has never been automatically synced. Last week our laptop got a virus on it (PC!) and was wiped clean, the OS re-installed, and iTunes re-installed. The iPod Touch has NOT been connected to that computer again physically. Just thought this might be worth mentioning. It wouldn't wirelessly sync though, would it? Either way, I still have two random albums on my iPod, not purchased recently.
    Frustrating, but not a huge deal. Just a lesson in backing up data (can re-load music from cd's, but wanted to avoid if possible).

  • ITunes can't find apps on iPod Touch and doesn't sync album artwork

    Ugh.  Here I go again.
    I have an iPod Touch (4th gen), 2010 MacBook Pro, all the latest operating systems and updates. 
    My iPod Touch crashed a bit and so I wanted to sync it again (using the USB cable, not wirelessly).
    (1) Suddenly, there was no music on the iPod Touch.  I managed to get that fixed.
    (2) After a couple of syncs, I was repeatedly getting the message that the iPod Touch apps "could not be synced because the apps could not be determined."  A couple of plugging and unpluggings allowed iTunes to "find" the apps, but this is weird.
    (3) And now, what's bugging me -- and this happened a year or so ago -- very little of the album artwork synced over to the iPod Touch.  I have 600-800 albums.  All of the artwork is correct on iTunes.  About 10% of the artwork transferred over to the iPod Touch.  (Then I synced my iPad, and all the artwork is correct on the iPad.)
    If I remember correctly from last year, eventually -- after many successive syncs -- the album artwork made its way correctly over to the iPod Touch, and maybe I'll hope for that this time.
    Does anyone have a more direct solution?  Checking and unchecking some boxes on some syncs?  (It takes a good chunk of time to sync over my music, so I don't really have to time to delete and sync repeatedly just as shots in the dark.
    Any ideas?  All thoughts welcome. Thank you!

    Taking off all the music and then putting it back on took care of the album art, but I'm still getting all kinds of funky behavior -- iTunes can't find the apps, then it can't find the iPod altogether, and it's adding duplicate songs somewhere.  It said it was going to load 3,232 songs, but I ended up with more than 3,400.  Weird.

  • 2-3 old ipod touch is no longer syncing to itunes library, which was recently moved to new laptop.

    Recently moved my library of music, audiobooks, and podcasts to new laptop with Windows 8, at which time I upgraded my itunes software as well. My 2-3 year old ipod touch is no longer syncing properly. Audiobooks and podcasts are fine (after much effort), but all of two songs out of an extensive music library are the only ones syncing. I see them in my library on the new computer and have managed to sync them to my iphone 5 as well. Ipod touch appears to have ample file storage space left. What gives? Is the i-pod touch already useless with the latest Itunes software? Operator error? Hardware problem? I don't know what to think. Have been using ipods for years without this issue.

  • My iPod touch still doesn't sync back Calender items - yours does?

    I asked this question before, and I still haven't solved the problem. Calendar items added in my iPod does not show up in my iCal after sync. I have choosen wich calendar to put it in, I have reset the Sync History in iSync, I have resetted my iPod and downloaded a new iTunes, done plenty of restarts, gone through my calendar files. There is one strange thing though. In iTunes is listed calendars I do not longer have in iCal, I have deleted them from iCal. But in iTunes they are still possible to choose (which I don't).
    Everybody elses calendars sync fine bothways I presume? Or has anyone experienced the same as me and found a sollution. I'll be your friend for lifetime if you tell me how.

  • Ipod Touch 2nd Gen not syncing photos

    One of my ipod touch's albums to sync is iPhoto's "last import" album. It always updates the album every time I import new photos into iPhoto. However, it has stopped doing that. I have old photos in my album now instead of the most recent import. In "Last Import" on my iPod, it's showing me my import from two times ago, not the most recent. I've clicked SYNC in iTunes about 5 times, but it won't update. My music and podcasts are all updated, just not my photos.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar.  Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears.

    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.

  • My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    Here's a couple things to try:
    1. Reset the iPod by holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
    2. Uninstall and reinstall one of your purchased apps. Sometimes this can rectify the issue.
    3. Connect the iPod to iTunes and restore it. New system software usually resolves the issue. Make sure you sync before restoring because a restore removes the data from your iPod.
    Hope one of these works for you!

  • Ive got a new pc with windows 7 and my ipod touch 4th gen is synced with my old pc ,how can i back up the photos on the ipod to my new pc ?

    ive got a new pc with windows 7 and my ipod touch 4th gen is synced with my old pc ,how can i back up the photos and music on the ipod to my new pc ?

    Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time.  If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
    Before doing anything else,  authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account.  In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
    Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
    iOS: How to back up
    Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc.  For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.  For all other nonpurchased iTunes content such as music, videos, and photos synced to the device, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software available to assist you with this task.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
    Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier.  Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
    If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for information.

  • IPod touch won't finish syncing on iTunes

    My ipod touch won't finish syncing. it's been on step 7 of 7 forever... it's a third generation itouch and the version of itunes is 10.6, the latest version.

    First, try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again.
    See if you can sync after that.
    Are you syncing podcasts as well? If yes, try without selecting podcasts, or delete the podcasts on the device before you sync.

  • IPod Touch dumps music library when I download content from mobile iTunes

    I have had this problem twice now, and both times when I'm away from home and can't get to my computer to sync up easily and fix the problem.
    - I am downloading podcasts from the mobile version of iTunes using the Touch's built in wifi
    - I open the "Music" app to listen to my tasty new podcasts
    - The splash screen that says iTunes is updating the library - this may take a few minutes - appears
    - soon, presta! I have none of my original music available, just the crappy single of the week I got for free from iTunes. I begin to hate this undiscovered band for seemingly poor reasons.
    now, every time I go back to my computer at home to sync it up, it restores the playlists and content I thought I had lost, so my best guess is that mobile iTunes is screwing with my iPod Touch's music library file, because for all I can tell the files still seem to be there. Just un-findable.
    I'm not jailbroken, and don't fancy it, unless someone thinks it might help me get my music and podcasts back before I can return home... a week is a long time to go without my stuff.
    Any ideas will be greatly appreciated! thanks,
    Brock

    I have the same problem with mine, but i dont really pay attention to when ive bought songs of mobile itunes. Sometimes when i turn my ipod on its says updating library but then states no content, so i have to go to the computer to re-sync my songs. Ive looked all over but cant find any answers to stop this, have you had any luck yet?

  • We have some 3rd generations iPod touches that are note syncing with the computer we have. The original computer that the ipods was synced to is gone. We downloaded the itunes to the new computer and logged on as the same account and it won't sync.
