Ipod Touch freezes with Itunes

I have a 4th Gen Ipod Touch and have Windows Vista and after the new update of Itunes 10.4.1, it freezes Itunes when connected to my computer. Itunes works fine when the Ipod is not connected, but once I connect the Ipod the program freezes. If I disconnect my Ipod then it unfreezes and begins to work again.
I've tried restarting my computer, reinstalling Itunes, and trying all the different USB ports in my laptop since that worked once when Itunes wasn't seeing my Ipod.
I believe it is a syncing issue because the first sync that my Ipod does with Itunes is very slow and takes up to 20 mintues to finish. After the first sync everything begins to work fine and at a normal speed.
I ran a diagnostic on Itunes and it told me that everything is fine but it can't read my Ipod even when it's plugged in.
Is anyone experiencing a similar problem, or knows of a good solution?

  • IPod touch sync with iTunes Error -18

    Hi
    Today I want to use my iPod touch but they was no music on it (the pictures are ok).
    At home I try to sync the iPod touch with the lib, I don’t run
    I got the message that the sync is not possible error code -18, a restore is mot possible too.To solve this problem I reset the iPod touch (setup-> common -> reset all)
    Is it a hardware / software error on the iPod touch?
    thanks
    Frank

    Follow these instructions ... be sure to continue to hold down the HOME button when your release the SLEEP/ON/OFF button as indicated:
    1.) connect the ipod
    2.) Pres and hold both home and off switch untill the apple logo apears
    3.) When apple logo apears let go off the off switch but not the home
    4.) You should see the logo of a cd and a usb cord
    5.) Open itunes. If it still doesnt see it, unplug the ipod and close and reopen itunes and then plug your ipod
    Itunes should take over from there

  • IPod Touch Syncing with Itunes

    Well I've finally been able to get my used Ipod Touch back in working order, upon connecting it to my computer for the first time i've run into another issue. When I attempt to sync my Ipod with Itunes it pops up a windows message "SyncServer has stopped working" and then a moment later "Itunes was unable to load provider data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later"
    I've looked around the support pages and the forums with no luck.
    Thank you, I would appreciate it if anyone is able to point me in the right direction.
    ++addition info: It has some of the previous owner's songs on it and a couple of apps, none of which I want, so any data loss wont bother me in the slightest.
    ??quick Q: Do i need to register the ipod under my account or convert my account to an itunes store account(or something like that) in order just to sync my songs i have on my computer?

    Here's a post about the SyncServer problem: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2384885&start=50&tstart=0
    Apps can only be used with the account they where bought with. Delete the apps from the last owner and change the Store settings to your account in Settings/Store by logging in with your account info.

    - I would start with
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
    - Then do the other actions of:

    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • Why can't my ipod touch sync with itunes 11?

    I am currently using an iphone 5 and an ipod touch 3rd generation. I had to upgrade my itunes to sync my iphone but now I can no longer sync and back up my ipod touch. I'm not sure if it's because my itunes is too advanced for my ipod which is using IOS 5(I think). I remember I used to be able to put songs in and all but now itunes keeps asking me to restore it to factory setting which I do no want to do every time I want to add music. Is there any way to fix this problem? Or do I really have to restore my ipod every time? Please Help.

    Something happened and yo have to restore via iTunes. Backup to iTunes if yo can and then restore from that backup
    All old devices can sync with the newest iTunes

  • Why wont my ipod touch sync with itunes, and how can I fix it

    Key Facts:
    -I have an ipod touch (model number MC008LL)
         -It's probably running the same iOS id did in the package
    -It won't sync (and more importantly update to i0S5)
         -It's not a failed/slow sync, the option to sync as well as all other options under "Devices" is Grayed out
    -I am running iTunes 11.0.4
    -the Belkin cord I am using charges the ipod, and I think it was the one I used to sync it before.

    You have a 3G iPod and those can go as high as 5.1.1.  What exactly happens when you connect the iPod to your computer and try to update via iTunes? You need iTunes 10,5 or higher on the computer.
    After you get it updated see if syncs.

  • Will iPod Touch sync with iTunes via Wi-Fi ?

    Forgive me if it's here somewhere but I cannot seem to find any info on this.
    I'm thinking it would be really neat if I could just pop the iPod Touch on my speaker dock to charge when I'm at home, whilst updating the content wirelessly via my laptop/home network.
    Is this possible?

    Thanks.
    I was reading about the Zune yesterday which made me wonder if the Touch would work the same.
    A USP for the Zune until Apple sort out an update!

  • Why won't my iPod touch sync with iTunes?

    I recently bought a new song and wanted to put it on my iPod.  Every time I went to sync it "timed out" and wouldn't show up on my iPod (ie the sync failed).  I tried updating iTunes.  My iPod won't get any new updates since its 2nd generation.  I've tried the diagnostics and everything checks out okay there.  My computer is up to date.  I thought I'd try to do a restore and now I have less songs and none of my apps.  It's now getting "stuck" on other songs from my collection.  Any help?

    Okay, so I think it may be the cable b/c when I hold it just right it works much better.  It still will get stuck on certain songs but when I try again it works.
