  • My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

    My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.  it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted.  Any suggestions?

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Then try restoring again.

  • IPod Touch will no longer sync...error message.

    For some reason my older iPod Touch without a camera on it will not sync any more and I am getting an error message saying this iPod cannot be synced. Now I had it set up to sync over Wi-Fi and I would occasionally hook up to the computer with the cable and got error messages on both. Now I read something about removing the SC Info Folder. If I do that will that mess things up with syncing my iPhone? 

    What is the exact wording of the error message?

  • Ipod touch will no longer sync my songs, they show up for a few seconds then disappear help

    for some reason when I try to sync my songs to my ipod touch, they will all show up briefly, then disappear once I hit the sync button?  very frustrating, have never had this problem in the past, any suggestions would be great

    If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first.  Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

    then restart the device.

  • IPod touch will no longer sync with my music library on iTunes since restoring to factory settings

    I had to restore the ipod when it locked my son out as he'd forgotten the passcode.
    I have around 1000 songs in my music library on itunes. Sync all songs is checked, but it saying there are 0 songs.
    I'd like to sync all songs to the ipod.  Can anyone help please?

    Syncing is iTunes keeping your iTunes library (or a defined portion of the iTunes library) "in sync" (the same as) the library on your iPod.  And iTunes syncing of content generally goes in one direction only, from iTunes library on computer to the iPod.  That's why, if you want to sync it to a NEW iTunes library, iTunes is warning you that the existing library on the iPod will be replaced.
    So, you cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library.  Once your iTunes library is consolidated with ALL of your songs, you can sync your iPod to it.
    NOTE:  If you have songs previously purchased from the iTunes Store on the iPod, you can re-download them at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen.  The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS.

  • After purchasing songs at the itunes store, ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. Also a lock symbol is now on the ipod touch. How do I fix this

    After purchasing songs at the itunes store,  my ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. It won't send the purchases to the device and it won't synch any other music to the device. Also a lock symbol is now displayed at the top of the ipod touch. How do I fix this.
    This was the first purchase I made.

    Are you following these instructions?

  • My iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. HELP!

    My 4th generation iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. I tried buying a new cable and USB charging socket (and I bought one made by Apple), but that did not fix the problem. I restored it from iTunes, hoping that would work as well, but that failed. I am at my wit's end. Can anybody here help me? I've bought new equipment, tried rebooting, restoring, etc. but nothing so far has proven successful. If anyone's got a solution, please help!
    Thanks!

    All I can suggest is the standared fixes. It seems very strange
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings      
    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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Bring the cable and Apple wall charger too.

    My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes.  When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod.  What do i do?

    Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable?  Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

  • HT4623 my ipod touch will no longer connect to my laptop because my ipod is not up to date, but it won't find a newer software. what should I do?

    my ipod touch will no longer connect to my laptop because my ipod is not up to date, but it won't find a newer software. what should I do?

    the computer is a macbook pro, mac os x 10.6.08 and the ipod touch is ios 6.0.
    the problem is that just updated the itunes on the computer and now the ipod won't connect because apparently the itunes on the ipod is not up to date but the iod is telling me that is is up to date, so i can't do a software update.

  • 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.

    Salut, et un accueil chaleureux aux forums!

  • HT1351 my ipod classic will no longer sync any movies on latest version of itunes --- why?

    Both of my iPods will no longer sync any movies.  They always did before without any problem.  I am using latest version of itunes.  Any suggestions?

    If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
    But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
    upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
    Since there were about nine different build models
    of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
    one you have would be the first step to knowing
    what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
    If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
    it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
    when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
    detailed information is available.
    When you find the serial number, there is a web
    page that can be used to identify by serial no.
    http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
    That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
    which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • TS2634 My ipod touch will no longer play in both my docking stations, Bowers and Wilkins mini zeppellin and a Logitech, yet it plays in my car.  Is the ipod about to die?  Do I repair or buy another? It's only 2 years old!  thanks!

    My ipod touch will not play music in my Bowers and Wilkins mini zeppelin nor my Logitech.  Yet, it plays in my car.  The music can be heard playing in the ipod itself.  It is only 2 years old.  Should I repair or just buy another?  Thanks!

    Did it start not working after updating the iPOs on the iPod? SOmetimes updating an iOS breaks compatibility.
    You can try the standard fixes:
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
