Ipod touch won't sync checked music or tv shows after somehow being removed

I got my ipod touch at Christmas and it probably hasn't had as much use as most. I didn't want all the songs on my itunes library on my ipod, so I went with the manual syncing and only put on checked songs. I also had 2 tv shows put on. At one point I bought 2 songs directly onto the ipod. I then tried to get them onto my computer and make a playlist which included them and then get that playlist onto my ipod. That was my first time trying to get a playlist on the ipod. I couldn't get it to work. My husband may have played with it. Anyways, recently I noticed that my tv shows are gone and my entire song list other than the one playlist I had created and tried to get on. I can not get anything to sync on to the ipod. I have tried turning it all the way off, restarting the computer. It says syncing for two seconds on the computer and ipod, but nothing changes.

I would try restoreing the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod and try again.

  • My ipod touch won't sync to music

    I try to plug my ipod touch in my computer to sync music I had recently added to my itunes library but it doesn't show up in itunes or it won't sync but my ipod touch will charge.....
    Did this happened to anybody else? And what should I do....

    If you are saying that the iPod does not appear in iTunes on the computer see:

  • 3rd gen iPod Touch won't sync my music with my iTunes

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation. It runs 5.1.1 iOS. I have iTunes for Windows 7 Ultimate. I am currently updating to 11.4. Over a year ago, my songs stopped syncing with my iTunes, so if I made a change to a song title or something on my iPod, or downloaded or assigned some artwork to a song or album, it wouldn't auto-sync on my iPod. At the time, I just accepted it and made every adjustment twice. I am quite the detail oriented geek about my music and metadata. It views on my dashboard SYNC in my Ford Truck and I like it to be accurate because it also allows me to navigate my iPod via my voice while driving. I would prefer not to wipe my iPod Touch and start from scratch. I would like to figure out how to reestablish the link between my songs on my iPod and my iTunes. I know there will be many that I will need to manually reconnect, and I am up to the task. So, what do I do? Someone please come to my rescue. ;-)

    p.s. If any of you apple geniuses out there need any more specific technical data to help me, if you can, please just ask and I'll provide it quickly. Thanks, so much.

    All I can suggest, besides updating iTunes, is to restore the iPod. First from backup and if necessary to factory settings/new iPod.

  • My daughters iPod touch won't sync, says apps aren't recognized, nothing syncs though

    iPod touch won't sync at all. Only message is that some apps aren't recognized.  If I reset, will it sync? Or will she have a blank iPod because the "apps aren't recognized"?

    Use the communities search box in the upper right of this page and searc for: "the apps can't be determined". Use the quote makes and make sure the wording matches what the error message says.
    You will then find the previous discussions with the same error.  I do not remember the solution.

    New iPod Touch - iCloud not syncing contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks.  Restarting apps or device does not help.

    Are you trying to sync these with another iOS device?  If so, are you signed into the same iCloud account in Settings>iCloud?
    Also, did you check icloud.com from your computer to see if your data is there?

  • Ipod Touch won't sync after updating iTunes

    I updated my iTunes and now my ipod touch will not sync, it says that the ipod is synced with another iTunes library when it is not, is there a way to get it to sync?

    With all the synced media like apps and music in your iTunes library do the following:
    - Make a backup in iTunes by:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The above link includes that restore from backup instructions.
    Somehow updating iTunes caused iTunes/iPod to think it was not synced to this library. That happens sometimes.

  • HT1386 4th gen iPod touch won't sync to iTunes

    I connected it to add recently downloaded songs to my iPod. Itunes said it couldn't recognize the device and that I had to restore it, so I did. It wiped everything clean, but now it won't sync my music or photos onto it. I press "sync" and iTunes says it is going through the process, but nothing changes on the iPod. Both iTunes and the iPod are up to date, I have tried multiple USB cords. I don't know what else to do.

    Is your problem that you do not see your iPod in iTunes? If that is the case try these:

    Also, make sure you update to the latest iTunes and Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard is now up to 10.6.5 and you said you only have 10.6.3.
