ITunes 10.5 crashes when syncing iPod Touch 3rd Gen. with iOS 5

iTunes 10.5 crashes when I try to sync my iPod Touch 3rd Gen. with iOS 5...help? I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 and from what I can tell the sync process is taking up a massive amount of CPU (i've got a 15 in MBP with i7 core, 2.2GHz processor and 8 GB of RAM). can someone tell me what's going on?

I have windows xp, mine also crashing, nothing has worked...uninstalling, resetting and reinstalling nothing.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • Why is my ipod touch 4th gen with ios 6 only have sound in the speakers but not when I plug my headphones in

    My new ipod touch 4th gen with ios 6 wont play soun in the headphones, but only through the speaker when my head phones are unplugged

    - You do have the volume set all the way up?
    - Have you tried another pair of headphones/do the headphone work in other devices?
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It seems yo have a hardware problem, likely a bad headphone jack.

    That's as high as that model can upgrade to. You will need to buy a newer model to go higher.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the now new computer by :
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Make a backup of th iPod by connecting the iPod to the computer. Right click on iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from backup and sync as necessary.

  • I updated my iPod Touch 4th gen. with ios 5 and all my apps and music disappeared. What to do?

    This afternoon I updated my iPod Touch 4th generation with the iOS 5 update. I left the computer alone for about an hour, since that is how long iTunes said the update would take. When I came back, all of my music and apps were gone. Why did this happen? Is there any way to fix it? Thanks for the help.

    - If in the USA you can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - You can always redownload apps at no additional cost as long as you are signed into the same iTunes account the orignally purchased them.
    - It appears that the apps and music were not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you performed the update.  Music and the apps themselfes (app data is in the backup) are not part of the bckup hat iTunes makes as the first step of the uPdate.  Apps and music are synced from your iTunes library during a latter part of the update process.

  • ITunes crashes when syncing ipod touch

    I'm currently having multiple problems with my daughter's iTunes/iPod Touch. Here is some general information, we have an HP running Windows XP with SP2 Media Center edition. The iPod touch is 6 month's old ($399), 16 GB and was bought with Jan soft upgrade(not sure what that means but I think it was version 2.0?).
    Last night the touch was sync'ed. iTunes was on 8.01 (not exactly sure of version, think it was 8.01) All music and videos were erased from the iPod. Software on iPod kept rolling back and ended up stoping at 1.1.4. I tried to update the software on the iPod but it kept disconnecting while sync'ing. I had to stop sync'ing so I could download 1.1.5 and load the software on the iPod touch. I want to update to a newer version of iPod touch software but now since I'm on an old version iTunes wants another $10 to upgrade. So I don't know how to get on the version I think I started at 2.0?
    This morning I updated iTunes to latest software 8.02. I was able to get music to load but iTunes would seem to randomly crash. I watched and noticed that any video file would crash iTunes. I went in and changed the sync options:
    check - open iTunes when ipod is connected. all other options unchecked.
    on music tab:
    check - sync music, all songs and play listed
    unchecked - all other options (ie include music videos)
    on movies, TV shows, and podcasts: unchecked all sync.
    I now have all music sync'ed. I can't get any video to sync. Music video's purchased from iTunes store won't sync.
    Any idea how to update software on the itouch? Any idea why the video's won't sync?

    After spending 75 minutes on the phone with tech support, we found the problem was associated with the Windows XP user ID. We created a test user ID, logged on and populated iTunes with video and music. When we sync'ed the iTouch everything worked. I don't know how this problem occurred.

  • "iTunes Has Stopped Working" when syncing iPod Touch

    So in the last few days, I've been getting an error message when I try to sync my iPod Touch 2g with software version 3.1.2. After a few seconds, I get this error message "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." It only happens when I plug in my iPod for syncing.
    I've been up and down the message boards here looking for a solution and I can't seem to find anything that works. I've uninstalled/reinstalled quicktime, then the iTunes software, I've deleted and remade my iTunes library file... I'm just at a loss. Here's the error information windows gathered up...

  • Itunes 10.5.2 Freezes when i sync my iPod touch 3rd gen on ios 5

    Hello everyone!
    I have to questions that i hope a member of the apple community can hopefully help me with here they are.
    1. I need a solution that is proven to work either by you or a video of some sort to help me with this issue.
    I have a 3rd gen Ipod Touch (As it says as my title) its currently running ios 5 and itunes running 10.5.2. When i try to Transfer Purchases the Itunes Freezes completely. And as a result i have to open task manager and end process.
    2.Also My Ipod has chosen to freeze every now and again it basically freezes in the state where it looks like i have locked my screen so it like i have just pressed the lock button. So i try pressing the lock button again to see if that works which it didnt after i tried it with the home button and still no luck however it will randomly go back to normal as if it never happened.
    Please could someone answer these two questions it would be apprecicated.
    Regards.
    P.S thanks in advance

  • Blue Screen Error when syncing ipod touch 4g 32gb with i tunes 10 on Vista

    Hi
    I'm trying to sync my ipod touch 4g with my itunes 10 using a Dell XPS with Windows Vista. After the point where the songs begin to copy (around 5 mins to 30 mins into copying) a blue screen error is caused and the computer shuts down automatically. The blue screen error ID is 2057.
    I have scanned for viruses and its clean, tested my hardrive and its all ok, and now been to apple and got a replacement ipod and usb, re-installed i tunes 10 BUT its still happening.
    i'm not sure what to do next ..any suggestions??
    BTW my computer works fine until I try syncing the ipod so it's definitely something related to it.

    Just in case anybody is interested I managed to resolve the problem. Not sure if it was a just a co-incidence but after windows had auto-removed itunes 10, I plugged in the ipod and the computer recognised it as a working piece of hardware, although it actually thought it was a camera (not sure if that's normal).
    Anyway I re-installed itunes10 but kept the ipod plugged into the usb all the time. When itunes had installed, i began the sync and the files copied far more quickly than in previous attempts. They are all on now and the ipod is working fine and no blue screen errors.
    What probably happened is that when windows auto-fixed errors after the last crash(it didn't run an auto-fix after previous crashes), it fixed the error which was crashing itunes10 when syncing. I hope nobody else has this problem and the ipod remains ok.

  • Ipod Touch 4th Gen with iOS 6 syncs but music library does not.  Why?

    Hello all. Everything else on the iPod (that I have used) is working fine.
    I have tried restarting my computer, iTunes, iPod, re-routing the directory and syncing again.  Nothing has worked.  I have even tried selecting only certain artists and nothing.  I am about to revert back to the old iOS on my iPod, but before I do, does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks for your time!

  • When my ipod touch (3rd gen) displays an white image, a whiter spot appears on the screen?

    It only appears when displaying light images, and i have only just noticed it a few days ago. My ipod touch is running iOS5.0.1
    If you have had this problem, please tell me how you fixed it.
    It's not a dead pixel, it's just a small circle of pixels that seem to be a noticably different shade of white than the others.
    My ipod is under 2 years old now, so the warranty is void.

    You can try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing will be 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 factry defaults/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem then repair/replacement is required if you do not want to live with it.
