Hello kilikiwi,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
How did you delete these files from your iPod? How you delete something from your iPod depends on whether or not you have it set up to automatically sync or you manually manage its contents. This article provides excellent instructions and information for how to delete items from your iPod, both for automatic syncing and manual management.
[Adding and Deleting Songs and playlists from your iPod|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1855]
However, it sounds like your iPod has become corrupt due to a corrupt file in the iPod's software or through one of the movie files itself. I think your best solution in this situation is to restore it via iTunes. This will wipe all the content from the iPod and set it back to its default settings.

I have a fifth gen Ipod and have changed computers. I was not able to transfer all the music over when I created an itunes account on the new computer. How can I save all the songs on my ipod and upload new ones? It wants to sync with my new account.

I have a fifth gen ipod classic. I switched computers and was not able to transfer the songs and pictures over. When I connect my ipod to the computer it wants to sync with it which would delete all my songs and music. Is there a way around this?

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

How can you get Belkin Media Card Reader to work with Fifth Gen iPod?

I got a new 80Gb iPod and then discovered my Belkin Card Reader I've used extensively with my 4th Gen iPod, no longer works with the new one. I easily transferred photo albums on my PC to the new iPod but the Belkin Reader is "not recognized" by the new one.
This is a MAJOR disappointment to me as we travel a lot and I've used my iPod all over the world for photo storage. I had about 15Gb of photos on my older 40 Gb iPod before I transferred them off and got the new one.
Is there any other portable card reader that will work with the 5th Gen iPod's?

Hi. I am having an issue with music on my IPod. It would probably be easier to explain my specific issue: I have songs by Band of Horses from Cease to Begin. When viewing my albums through cover flow, it shows Cease To Begin as two separate albums, one with only Islands on the Coast, and the other having Islands on the Coast with 3 other songs. If I delete the album with only one song from my IPod, it deletes the song from the other "album" as well. If I go to "All Songs" by Band of Horses, it only shows one Islands on the Coast, so it is not a duplicate issue. Also, in Itunes, it only shows one album. I just recently updated to iOS5 on my 4th Gen IPod Touch, if that helps.

Hello APVzW, we absolutely want the best path to resolution. My apologies for multiple attempts of replacing the device. We'd like to verify the order information and see if we can locate the tracking number. Please send a direct message with the order number so we can dive deeper. Here's steps to send a direct message: http://vz.to/1b8XnPy We look forward to hearing from you soon.

I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod. I mostly listen to audio bks, not a lot of music. Often, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, therefore I don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hr book. How can I get MMI to start where I left off?

I have a 2009 A6 with a 5th Gen. iPod pluggedinto the MMI. I mostly listen to audio books, not a lot ofmusic. The books are 4-6 hours long, vs 4-6minutes with a song. Often, but not always, when I start my A6, the MMI starts on the first song on my iPod, thereforeI don't know where I stopped in my 4-6 hour book. How can I get the interface to stay stopped where I left off? I have gone into iTunes and placed my current book as the first "song" on my iPod for ease of finding it, but often the MMI starts it over at the beginning. Thank you if anyone has any experience with this. My dealer in San Rafael, CA says they've never heard of this issue.

I think my iPod, which is an iPod touch 3rd generation , which is a lot different from a nano, which really makes it almost impossible for me to help you, which is why I suggested that you post your question in the iPod nano community. Your first post says that your product is an iPod nano. I think the people who answer those questions would be most likely to help you. If yours isn't a nano then you can pick the right community from here. This community is really to answer questions about this forum, or issues that don't fit anywhere else.

Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod touch with 2.1 software?

Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod Touch with 2.1 software?

The second gen iPod Touch has firmware version 2.1.1(5F138) whereas the 1st Gen only allows 2.1 (5F137). Don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it's likely.
Why doesn't Apple allow those with the Nike+iPod sports kit to use their external sensor on the 1st Gen iPod Touch?!?! I can't see why the sensor would be incompatible with the right firmware upgrade!!

HT1351 I have tried numerous times to resolve an issue with my wife's iPod (5th gen#. When I connect to iTunes I get a pop up error message that goes like this - The iPod "Linda's iOod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured #13019)...What do I do?

I have had very much trouble adding music to my wife's iPod. Every time I connect to iTunes, I get an error message that reads ...The iPod "Linda's iPod" cannot be synced. An unknown error occured (13019)...I have tried diagnostics, help and what ever iTunes has to offer and cannot fix the issue. I want to add a new playlist with new music. When I connect her iPod, the playlist shows up on her device. When I disconnect, I can not find it in order to play it. Help me.

Some other posts seem to indicate that the cause is related to voice memos. You may want to try the remedy described in this document

although it says it's for the 6th gen iPod nano.

Can not download any apps from app store with my first gen ipod touch

I am able to search for apps and maneuver around the app store, but i can't download anything. The button that says "FREE" or has the price of the app is unresponsive. There does not seem to be anything wrong with my screen since I'm able to use any apps I already have.
A google search turned up a couple of discussions from others that seem to indicate this is a recent issue.
I'm using a first gen ipod touch with the latest OS it can use.
Does anyone else have this problem?

For me the problem started on my IOS 3.1.3 Gen 1 iTouch sometime between my last purchase on 12/10 and a sync. So a sync didn't preceed it. I discovered it when I tried to purchase an Audiobook. I can do podcasts, buy individual songs, but that's about it. I can update apps so long as I do them all, although update has been like that for awhile. I can't buy apps (even free ones), audiobooks, or albums using the Touch directly. I can't see many of the screen previews for apps and I can't review feedback on productcs either. I don't have any problems transfering purchases from my computer to my Touch using the iTunes app. I guess I eventually figured Apple might go here, but I sure haven't seen any announcement they were gong to do it now, so if it's intentional, it was sure done in an unfriednly way. I'm a developer, so I understand having to move on, but my Gen 1 is no where near end of life, even if it can't run the latest IOS. I was an early adopter of the Touch, so I'm one of millions that helped IOS devices become popular. I have newer IOS devices in the household under the same AppleID and another, and they work perfect. But still use the Gen 1 daily. If this is the way going forward, I guess I'll have to buy on my computer or other devices and transfer to the Gen 1, but I'll sure miss being able to do it directly. And I of course tried a factory reset and that didn't resolve it. Given so many are having this issue, I'm pretty sure it's the older IOS or Gen 1 interacting with the Apple storefronts that's the issue. The question is, is it intentional by Apple, or Apple oversight with an update to the storefronts? If intential I can understand apps, but not sure about Music and Audiobooks other than possibly the older IOS is holding back new store features???

I had a fully charged fifth gen iPod touch. Had nothing but trouble since updating to iOS8. This morning the iPod was fully charged. Turned it off-on standby. Came back and it won't turn on. Tried all troubleshooting tricks. Anyone ideas?

This morning, I had my fully charged 5th gen iPod touch. Have had lots of problems with it since updating to iOS8. After briefly using it (successfully may I add), I switched it off to standby. Came back only 10 minutes later, and it would not turn on. Tried all the obvious solutions, even switched out the lightening cord. Apple support could not help, and their only solution is to call. Has anyone else had this problem? Any other solutions other than obvious ones? iTunes no longer even recognizes the iPod. Thank everyone!

Hey Wildfarmrose, Have you tries any of these: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on , if still no joy try DFU Recovery Mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
About the only other thing to try is let the battery drain, then attempt to charge for 30 minutes and attempt to turn on, otherwise try another cable, and/or different computer, if still no joy most likely dealing with a hardware issue, schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar at your local Apple store and have your iPod evaluated. Don't forget to bring your cable also. Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar

Is there an issue with large libraries on iPod Classic 160 GB?

I got a new iPod Classic a week ago. Have already taken it back and exchanged it once. The issue is that it works fine when I load , say, 20,000 songs onto it, but when I try to sync my whole library of around 31,500 songs it no longer works. All I get after the 'OK to disconnect' message has come up is the Apple logo. Attempting to reset doesn't work; reconnecting to the computer I get the message (some of the time) that iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode.
I can restore the iPod by putting into disk mode, but restoring doesn't solve the problem - it comes back again if I try to sync the full library.
So, I currently have a new iPod Classic with a big hard drive that is supposed to hold up to 40,000 songs according to specifications and what I was told by the expert in the Apple Store, but so far the behaviour of the two iPods has indicated that in reality it can't handle that many.
THis is not the first time I've seen this kind of issue with an iPod. I had exactly the same issue when the first 60 GB iPods came out - software only worked with a smaller number of songs.

I've been able fill up a 160Gb Classic quite happily, although at some point I recall finding my iPod started to crash as I got it filled up. One problem seemed to be that iTunes & Windows would get confused when trying to add a really large number for which this workaround helps during the rebuild.
*Break up large transfers*
In iTunes select the menu item *File... New Smart Playlist*. Change the first drop-down box to Playlist, the next to is and the next to Music or whatever playlist holds the bulk of the content you want on your device. Tick against *Limit to*, type in say 10, then change the drop-down to GB, and set the last drop-down to artist. When you click OK you can enter a name for the playlist, e.g. Transfer. Now sync this playlist to your iPod rather than your entire library. When the sync is complete modify the rule ( *File... Edit playlist* ) to increase the size by your chosen amount, then sync and repeat. You can experiment with different size increments, if it doesn't work just choose something a bit smaller until it works each time. Before long you should have all your music on your iPod. Once that's done you can move on to other media such as podcasts, videos, photos, playlists etc.
The other problem I found is that sometimes the iPod would crash on exiting or even on entry to an iPod game. After a number of restores I determined that the number and complexity of the playlists I was putting on was the cause of the problem. I believe these are loaded into working RAM, so use too much memory for these and the iPod struggles on any other memory hungry task.

I was having issues with my 80G Video iPod and had to restore it, but now it seems all of my music on it previously is "corrupt" . How did all my songs get corrupted and how do I fix them?

I was having issues with syncing my 80G video iPod, so I restored it, and now all my songs in my library are "corrupted" and I can't get them back on my iPod. I keep getting error(-69). How did my songs all get corrupted, and how do I fix this without having to purchase these songs all over again?

Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time; you can see what content you can download here:

You can also re-download content using an iOS device.
For more information, see:

This if course will not apply to songs you did not buy through the iTunes Store.
Regards.

Home Universal Dock is not working with my 3 gen iPod Touch

I have the 64 gig iPod Touch. I also purchased the home universal dock DX-IPDR2. The iPod Touch TV setting is set to NTSC. With the iPod Touch in the dock and all cables connected corrrectly, there is no audio or video on the TV. Is this dock not compatiable with the third generation iPod Touch?

An apple store rep just told me that multitasking is only enabled on 32GB or 64GB current generation ipod touch models. Thats a pretty sneaky way to sell your "current generation" 8GB models, call them latest gen, say in the press that ios4 multitasking will work on them, and then ziiiinngggggo, no multitasking if you only need 8GB of storage. oh, well, off to jailbreakland...

Having start-up issues with my 1st gen Macbook Pro

Hi everyone. I just started having start-up issues with my first generation Macbook Pro. It was working fine the other day when I last used it, but today I went to use it and it wont load up to my desktop...? It starts up (grey screen with the little swirly bar under the apple,) then it goes to a blue screen, then my background and dock appear, then (before any of my desktop files even show up,) it goes to a blue screen (that brightens up and then dims a little,) and it just keeps showing this with a little swirly progress symbol (shows when the screen is darker blue, then disappears when the screen is a brighter blue.) I've included a video that I took with my iPhone to show it situation. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance!

Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key. Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory. A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash. Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated. This should take care of the issue.

Use Software Update to update your os to 10.6.8 and anything else that needs to be updated.

What Happened with the 1st Gen iPod Nano Settlement

Whatever happened with the 1st generation iPod Nano settlement? Was it a scam? I signed up online a long time ago but never heard back.
Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this question. But, I haven't been able to get an answer anywhere else.
Thanks!

I didn't sign up for it, but my understanding was it had not yet been finalized.

Cellular connectivity issue with iPad 4th gen

Hi folks,
I'm currently running iOS 7 beta 2 since it was made available for tablets on Monday. I am having a major cellular connectivity issue with Rogers. My iPhone 5 is also running iOS 7 beta 2 and has no issue with cellular connectivity (also on Rogers's network).
On my iPad, I'm having full or almost full reception but data doesn't work at all. Tried reboot and hard reboot, resets of wireless settings and nothing fixed my issue.
Is it related to iOS 7 beta 2? Is anyone having a similar issue?
Btw, model is iPad3,5.
Thanks!
Chris
