I KEPT ON GETTING ERROR (9).
AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIED I THOUGHT MY IPOD WAS
THE PROBLEM SO I RESWTORED BUT I STILL KEPT ON GETTING THE SAME RESULT.
SO I RE-DOWNLOADED MY ITUNES AGAIN, EVEN THO IT WAS UPDATED.
BUT STILL KEPT GETTING THE SAME RESULTS.
I TRIED DIFFERENT USB CABLES AND PORTS. BUT NOTHING.
I RAN A DIAGNOSIS TEST ON ITUNES AND EVERYTHING CAME OUT GREAT, BUT IT SAID IT COULDNT
FIND NO IPOD CONNECTED EVEN THO IT WAS.
SO IDK IF THE IPOD COULD BE THE PROBLEM.
I UPDATED MY VIRUS SECURITY PROGRAM AND OTHER UPDATES FROM THE COMPUTER.
I HAVE HAD THIS IPOD FOR ABOUT 1 1/2 YR AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE.
PLEASE HELP ME IF U CAN HELP ANY TIPS OR ADVICE !!!
THANK U GOD BLESS.

I also am hoping someone can help - I just logged in to post this same problem.  I've been trying for days and have had no luck.  Plugged in my iPod, downloaded the update fine and it failed at "verify ipod restore" and put my device in Recovery Mode.  Can't get it out after trying tons of things, including different computers.  Decided finally to just run the Recovery and it's failing at the same part and both are giving me a "9" error.  I'm missing my iPod Touch!!

  • MY DNS servers are so slow, i've tried almost everything please help

    So my internet was a bit slow two weeks ago, so I downloaded namebench which gave me two dns servers that were faster, I updated my network preferences and everything seemed to work fine until a day later where the internet became  wayyy sloower than before, youtube is slow, google chrome, safari etc... things i've tried: deleting history, cache and cookies. I've tried cleaning my computer off unwanted apps ,  I've tried contacting comcast and  I gave them permission and the tech manually took told of my screen and went through terminal trying to flush out the DNS servers, but for a lil bit it gave us a DNS failure code, than  than went back to being waaaay slow. I thought it was a virus or malware so I got Sophos it found one malware that i deleted but things are still slow. All the other computers at my house are fast except mine. I've tried going back to my previous DNS before the namebench assigned ones but it's still slow... so I added open servers 8.8.8.8 and than 8.8.4.4 . and these aren't working either.  so even though my internet is slow I downloaded Maverick today and things are still wayy slow, I have full bar on my wifi please help. thankswhat else to do.

    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up* as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here:   http://www.opendns.com/home-solutions and here:  http://www.opendns.com/technology/opendns-vs-google-public-dns/ )

    but results may vary depending on where you are located.
    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

  • TS1538 i cant get my new ipod touch 7 to be recognized in itunes? Please help!

    I cant my new Ipod Touch 7 to be recognized in Itunes?  Please help!  I'm trying to sync my music and book files with the new Ipod buts it not even listed under devices.  I have an old Ipod that I was using prior to this one that shows up under devices but not the new one.  Im only promted to transfer from what appears to be my old device?

    Alright, right after posting my question I figured it out. I plugged my iPod into one of the USB ports in the front of the MacPro and it worked like a charm. Now the problem is, what is wrong with the two ports in the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen? That I can't figure out clearly. The USB connection from it to the MacPro is connected.

    <Edited by Host>

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove your iPod's serial number address from your post.
    Only you can activate your iPod by typing in your id and password, or you can remove a device from your account via http://icloud.com . If you can't remember your account id then do you have any of its downloads on your computer's iTunes : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name ? If not then you could try http://iforgot.apple.com . You can also reset your password via the 'iforgot' site, or you can contact Support in your country and they should be able to reset your password (as long as you can prove your id and that it's your account) : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    iOS 7 and activation lock : iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
    What if I forget my Apple ID password?
    If you forget your password, you can reset it at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) or by contacting Apple Support and verifying your identity. Once your password has been reset, it will work normally with Find My iPhone and Activation Lock.
    If you forget your password and cannot reset it, you will lose access to your Apple ID and may be unable to use or reactivate your device. To help prevent this, visit My Apple ID periodically to review and update your account information.

  • ICal on Mac desktop to iPod Touch syncing problem

    I have events on my iPod Touch that will not sync to my Mac OS 10.6.8 desktop.
    What I've done that may have caused this:
    I got a new MacBook for Christmas and so I tried syncing all 3 with iCloud, but that caused duplicate events
    I tried only using MacBook & iPod Touch for sycing with iCloud and then directly syncing from my iPod with USB to my desktop, but it stopped syncing (later I found that my cord needed to be replaced, but I'm not sure if that was the problem - I was still dealing with some duplicate events, too)
    I decided to stop using iCloud (I can do without using my iCal on my MacBook if there's no ideal solution to sync all 3 without duplications or other problems) and now my iPod Touch syncs well with my desktop for most items, but not all
    I think my desktop thinks the events that are syncing have already been synced because they were in the past. The one that was important that I missed today, which is on my desktop (a repeating event) but is no longer on my iPod Touch, refuses to sync to my desktop. There may be more that I haven't noticed.
    I thought maybe I could wipe my iPod Touch calendar and then sync my desktop to my iPod Touch, but I'm afraid that it might wipe my desktop as I don't know how to tell it to only go one way in syncing rather than acting as if it's a new program.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Be sure you've set your iPod to the correct time zone (ie, same as your computer). If you're on the East Coast it's three hours ahead of Apple HQ's time zone. A 5:00pm appointment in New York is at 2:00pm to someone using a Californian clock. Make sure your Touch isn't a Californian clock.

    My ipod touch got wet and won't turn on. please help

    First dry the iPod.

    Then
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod touch sync problem with iCal

    My iPod touch (3th gen) doesn't sync any new appointment with iCal anymore (and vice versa). He only sync the older appointments, even when replacing all data from iCal to the iPod. I think the problem started since installing OS X Lion. I do not work with MobileMe, but directly via iTunes. How can I solve this problem?

    Did you try to click either "all" or "selected"? If you click "selected" you need also to click on the different calenders that you set up. For example, if you have djm027 calender (that is calender for yourself), another calender for sister, another calender for your brother and so forth. You need to click them all if you want to be seem on your iPod Touch. And if you only want yours then you just click djm027. I am not sure if this help. This is how I fix the problem myself.

  • Ipod touch syncing problems

    Hello to potential helpful people,
    I have the latest Ipod touch 64GB which up until a couple of months ago was giving me no problems, but for some reason, It randomly (from no request of mine) deleted the majority of songs off my ipod, so that whenever I played my music on shuffle it wouldn't play most songs! I couldn't find anything to solve this problem on the support site, so I restored my ipod and started again from scratch.
    The sync has now completed, HOWEVER, it has only copied a third of my music onto my ipod and wont sync anymore. According to Itunes, the "Other" storage capacity section is taking up 31.23 GB on my ipod which is just not right. I don't use contacts, messages, emails or anything that falls into the "other" category on my ipod, so I don't know what it means!
    I have checked on my ipod and I cant find anything anywhere which says something is taking up a lot of storage but because of this itunes will not sync anything else to my ipod.
    I have 4130 songs, which says will take up about 21.76 GB, 1 video which will take up approx 8GB, over 4000 photos taking up 2.90 GB and finally 45 apps taking up 6.32 GB. This is all I have on there, nothing else should be taking up any space!!! And all of this does not come to 64GB. So it should sync all my music!!!
    On my ipod, in the "About" section is says my ipod has 11 songs on it and no videos, however all my photos and all my apps are corrently counted. BUT when I click on "songs" and then "shuffle" in my music section, when it plays the first song it says 1 of 1652. It makes no sense!!! Nothing is relating to anything and I'm really at the end of my patience.
    This is incredibly frustrating, Please someone help me!
    Thank you in advance.
    Kim

  • New ipod touch syncing problems?

    My old laptop crashed and subsequently i couldn't save all my music. All of my music is however on my old ipod (around 2800 songs compared to 2400 on itunes).
    I've got a new ipod touch and want to get all of my 2800 songs on it, but it only has 2400. I tried this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1329 but it hasn't worked and i'm clueless as to how to actually get all of my music from my old ipod onto itunes and my new ipod.
    On another note, all of the songs in my new ipod on itunes are grey and therefore unplayable. Any ideas as to why?

    I still have 400 songs less on my library than on my old ipod. I plugged my ipod touch into my computer to see if it was still the same, and now none of my applications work either! Can anyone tell me what's going on? Or should i just take my laptop and both ipods to the Apple store and see if there's anything they can do?

  • IPod Touch sync problem with MS Office Outlook Contacts

    Having successfully syncd complete MS Ofice Outlook Contacts to my new IPod Touch, I am finding that subsequent changes to both IPod and Outlook Contacts are not sycning. On the other hand Calendar is working perfectly!

    Not sure if I need to post my question as a separate entry, but let me first try here since this topic came up.
    I have set up iTune to sync my Outlook calendar and contacts, with "replace items on iPod with Outlook" option checked. When I connect my iPod, the status bar says it is syncing with Calendar and Contacts. But nothing is changed if I open my contacts/calendar on my iPod. Any idea?

  • IPod Touch syncing problem

    I purchased Chris Brown's CD Fortune at F.Y.E. and imported it to my iTunes. After this, I attempted to sync my iPod. The message, "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPod "Josh's iPod" because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined." What should I do?

    First make sure all of the apps in your iTunes library are up to date by going to the Apps section of your iTunes library and choosing the Update button in the lower right hand corner.  Once you have confirmed this, restart your iPod Touch with it still plugged in to a USB port by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Then try resyncing your device.

  • HT1386 ipod touch sync problem

    I have the latest generation ipod touch and have just downloaded 11.5 itunes. I recently purchased some songs on itunes and it downloaded to my PC just fine. The ipod touch however is not allowing me to transfer those 3 songs to its library. Does it have anything to do we my library being backed on the cloud?

    I also do not want to lose the 400 songs I have on my ipod touch currently, by choosing the option to "erase all existing music. . and sync with this itunes library ".
