Ipod Touch Update question; How long does a backup take for you?

I have updated my ipod before and the backup took a few hours lets say around 5 or so... and i was just wondering because this is the second time it has asked me to do this for a new patch and i started around 3:40 p.m. and it is now 6:20 p.m..... the progress only has a 11 bars out of the entire bar (windows xp)... so i was wondering is somthing wrong i also want to know how i would disconnect it because it is taking to long and i might have to leave and i want to take it with me.
also i dont usually back my stuff up and it has like 600 mbs of apps, atleast 5gigs of music and a few videos with some pictures. (8 gig ipod touch first gen got it before speakers /cry)

I have, just now, about 9 GBs of stuff on my 2G 16 GB and I'd say 8 minutes but I think it's less than that.
I'm constantly switching play lists and changing movies and TV shows as well as pod casts (I won't miss Rachel Maddows if I can help it.) so sync gets a work out.
It's true I've only got 3 apps so if you've got pages that might make a sync longer but not that much longer!
Something isn't working right with your sync.

  • How long does it usually take for you to fully charge your iPad 2?

    My iPad takes forever to reach a full 100%. The fast charge cycle or whatever it is called only takes about 2-3 hours and it reaches 80% quickly. From 80% to 100% is a crawl and it can sometimes take 4 very long hours!
    Anybody else facing such issues? Any fixes? I usually let my iPad 2 run out of battery or reach 5% levels before putting it to charge. Is this why it is happening? I know people advise to recharge when the battery reaches 30% levels but then what is the point of never using 30% of your battery's capacity???
    Any thoughts, anyone?

    Directly from Apple: https://www.apple.com/batteries/why-lithium-ion/
    Your Apple lithium-ion battery uses fast charging to quickly reach 80% of its capacity, then switches to slower trickle charging. The amount of time it takes to reach that first 80% will vary depending on your settings and which device you’re charging. This combined process not only lets you get out and about sooner, it also extends the lifespan of your battery.

    5 minutes to your computer. iCloud backups are highly dependent on your Internet connection speed.

  • How long does it normally take for all of your music to load on the new computer when you are home sharing?

    I am trying to load my music on my sisters computer. How long does it normally take for the first time to download? Her computer has been "Checking for new purchases," for about an hour now.

    10 hours does not seem right at all. Should take several minutes at best. The entire OS installation is under an hour. Post your issue in the FCS forum area here:

    How long does it usually take from an iBook to be authenticated on iTunes Publisher?

    Have you connected it to your computer running iTunes? If you have and it's still displaying the connect to iTunes logo, then you need to troubleshoot why it's not being recognized by the computer. As long as that's on the screen, it isn't doing anything.

  • How long does the preparation take for ???

    My order of late 2012 iMac 27" is now showing
    Preparing for Shipment
    How long does it take for them to ship my iMac since the date of showing "Preparing for Shipment"?
    (OMG...They're so slow...it seems taking them years...)

    By about Dec 4th or 5th all of the 27" iMacs that would ship in the first 'batch' had been ordered.  Anyone ordering after that time would have to wait for the 2nd production run and there was/is no way to know just when the 2nd wave of iMacs would be ready to ship.
    How long has your order been 'Preparing for Shipment'?  If it is more than a day or so I can certainly see why you are a bit disappointed and frustrated, I would be too. 
    The only consolation I can give is that the 27" is apparently a very good machine (mine certainly is) which will give you a lot of pleasure when it does arrive.

  • How long does shipping, etc. take for iPod nano issue?

    I spoke with an apple representative today about my nano which is crashing about every minute or so. I was informed they were sending me a box in which to send my iPod back. Any idea how long this process takes? I'm leaving on vacation soon and would like my iPod. Thanks.

  • How long does express replacement take for an Iphone 4s??

    My iPhone 4s broke today, and I called for an express replacement for it. They charged $30 for it, and put the order in.
    The representative failed to mention what I'm supposed to do and how long it would take for my new iphone to come in. I also failed to ask him these questions, I dont know why..
    So how long will it take for my new iPhone to come in, and what do I do with my current broken iPhone once the new one does come in?

    Instead of waiting here for a response, why don't you just call them back and ask?

  • How long does should it take for create home share?

    I'm trying to set up homesharing on my mom's computer, but it's not working. I type in her Apple ID and password, click create homeshare and at the top it says accessing itunes store and shows the loading bar and nothing happens. This didn't happen when I created mine, and I'm not sure what to do. I've updated her software, and that didn't help. Anyone know what to do or have the same problem?

  • How long does it really take for fios

    My condo just posted signs that fios is available ( the exact verbatum is "serivice will be hooked onto existing customers lines"). What dies that mean? I can not get direct tv because of where my balcony sits so I have nothing. Anyone know how long it takes to install verizon fios?

    There are two types of installations used in condos. 
    Fiber to the unit where they run microduct and fiber to each unit.  The ONT is installed in your unit.  TV, internet and phone are distributed from the ONT.
    A centralized Multiple Dwelling Unit (MDU) install.  A MDU ONT is installed in a common area.  TV is delivered over existing coax.  Internet is devlivered from the ONT via your phone lines using VDSL.
    From the statement  "serivice will be hooked onto existing customers lines", it sounds like you are getting an MDU installation.]
    Once the MDU ONT is in place, getting service is simply a matter of scheduling a tech to come out to cut over your coax and phone lines to the ONT.

  • Replacing Shipment Pending.   How long does it normally take for it to be shipped?

    The website says one week, from when they received it. But I was told something different when I called in (was told 10 bus days) 
    I have been told by a friend that Apple will NOT ship a replacement phone back until they have one available that is the same (model, gb size etc) as the one I sent them, however, I sent them the 3gs, which is quite old by Apple standards.  So now I am worried that I may be without my iPhone for an extremely long time.  
    Has anyone else gone through this?  
    I can't seem to find an email address or anything like that to ask Apple directly, and because of a nasty cold, i am not able to call them as I have lost my voice, so I thought I would see if anyone here had gone through the same thing, or could direct me where to find the information that I am looking for.
    Thank you.

  • How long does the "activation" take for my apple tv? its been about 20 minutes.

    my apple tv has been "activating" for 20+ minutes, is that normal?

    That would indicate that it is not properly connected to the network.
    Reboot Apple TV and router
    Router should have port 123 open (refer to manual if unsure)
    If on wifi try ethernet
    Make sure DNS is set to auto (setting - general - network)
