ITunes 7.0.0 crashes podcasts on iPod

iTunes 7 has been an unmitigated disaster -- days of trying to get it to work, etc.(coals to Newcastle), but the worst is for the first time my iPod Video 30 Gb is crashing when I play podcasts downloaded and transferred by iTunes 7. Curiously, it didn't create the problem with the music. Took me days to realize this beta (alpha?) software was the problem, and not ready for prime time. Actually, it was this forum that clued me it wasn't a broken iPod.
Fortunately I had 6.05 on another PC. After removing the files on my iPod, and re-transferring via 6.05, I'm back to where I was. Needless to say, I'm verrry reluctant to invite the trouble again.
I haven't seen this problem posted (although I haven't read all the threads) What is 7.x doing differently with podcasts?
More important, why would these podcasts play in iTunes 7, but crash the iPod? (BTW -- when 7 installed, it also updated the iPod with new software/firmware)
Does anyone know if 7.1 fixed this?
Thanks.

When I plug the iPod in with the option "manually manage music" checked, the iTunes does not crash immediately and I can listen to musik from the iPod. But after 2-3 minutes, however, iTunes crashes again ...

  • ITunes 7.0.2 crashes and delets iPod

    I have my iTunes Library on an external HD. When I'm not at home, I'd like to listen to Music, connecting my iPod (last generation b&w, 40GB) to my PowerBook (so I don't have to wear headphones all the time). Since I've installed iTunes 7, it always crashes when I plug my iPod in. Furthermore, it once deleted all the songs on the iPod and once deleted the content of some playlists. I usually have automatic synchronisation activated when I plug the iPod in and then I deactivate it to listen to music.
    Anyone an idea?
    cheers

  • Podcasts showing up in iTunes, but not in the podcasts on ipod! HELP!

    I backed up my iTunes library onto CDs before getting a new computer. When I bought the new computer, I put all of the CDs onto it, and then began to use my ipod on the new computer. Ever since then, podcasts will download into the correct category in iTunes, but when I sync my iPod and then diconnect it, the podcasts category on my ipod is empty. I can find some of the podcasts by looking through the artists, but it's hit and miss. What can I do to make the podcasts download into the right category on my ipod? I'm totally frustrated.

    With your iPod connected, select it in the left-hand side of iTunes and then click the Podcasts tab. Make sure it is set to sync the appropriate podcast episodes.

  • ITunes quits when I refresh podcasts with iPod touch connected

    If I click the "refresh podcast" button in iTunes (version 11.3.1.2) while my iPod touch (32G capacity currently with 4.5G available; still running iOS 5.1.1) is connected, iTunes quits. If the iPod is not connected, the refresh runs just fine; any available podcasts are downloaded. I'm running iTunes on Windows 7 with all the latest security updates.This issue first occurred August 16, 2014.

  • When connected via USB, my Ipod Classic 160GB mounts as a disc drive, then changes to a white drive.  When iTunes automatically opens, it crashes trying to mount and/ or sync.  When it times out, my only choice is to restore, but that doesn't fix problem.

    I'm running OS 10.6.8 on my 3.06 GHz iMac Intel Core 2 Duo.   I recently upgraded to iTunes 10.5.2.  I'm not sure when the trouble started but I attempted a restore when the iPod would not play correctly.  It would start to play a file and get stuck on 0 seconds.  If I put the iPod on shufle, it will stall on 0 seconds for 15 seconds or so and then move on to the next track and stall again and so on.   Seemingly randomly, it will play a few tracks but eventually start skipping again.  This will continue until the battery is depleted which is fairly quick since the drive is constantly spinning.
    My 160GB iPod Classic after restore attempts now is up to date with 2.0.4. and of course, nothing works as it should and I would say the skipping issue is worse than ever.  
    When I connect with any of three USB connectors, the iPod mounts to the desktop as a grey/silver disk drive picon exactly like the Macintosh HD picon.   Then Finder will stall for a few minutes- spinning pinwheel.  Somehow, the dock is never affected and I am able to open other applications like Safari or tab through open windows- just no action on the desktop.  Eventually, iTunes automatically opens and Finder becomes responsive again.  At this point the grey drive picon on the desktop becomes a white drive mount picon, but the iPod does not mount in iTunes, yet.  At some point, the iPod attempts to sync, iTunes crashes with the spinning pinwheel and eventually times out and I am prompted to restore the iPod again.  Once restored,  the iPod properly mounts under devices in iTunes and, as I have done this several times, even occasionally changes to the regular iPod picon on the desktop.
    I have restored several times going as far a completely deleting iTunes from my iMac, downloading the latest directly from Apple.com, and attempting to restore again, but to no avail.
    I have even used the disk utility to verify and/or repair my Macintosh HD and iPod. 
    It seems lots of folks are going through this ordeal.  Has anyone had any success in fixing the issue, even if only temporarily?

    one more detail, after a restore, when I attempt to reload music to the ipod, if I try and move, say, 20 files, the transfer seems to work as it should but then stalls on the last file.  Eventually, the status will change to "Updates Files on (my ipod)" a and suggests the iPod is syncing  even though I have the auto sync feature turned off.
    This process eventually works itself out, and seems to take longer relative to the number of files I attempt to transfer.   Once done, howver, if I try and eject and dismount the iPod, iTunes stalls with the spinning pinwheel and I am warned that the iPod is syncing again with the spinning candy cane status bar.     Eventually thisd works itself out and the iPod dismounts from iTunes and the desktop and eventually the iPod is free to disconnect.
    Then if I try and play the music I just transfered, the iPod says there is no music loaded.
    Ideas?

    My computer with my itunes crashed. I can no longer use that computer. My ipod no longer works so I bought a new one. I would like to download my itunes that I have but I don't know how to get the information onto my new ipod.

    Your itunes purchases for music, etc are tied to your itunes account - any computer (up to 5) can be authorized with your iTunes account information. Enter your iTunes account name and password in the iPod - you don't say which version of iOS is on your iPod so more details can't be given until knowing that.

    I have continuously over the last 6 months struggled with syncing my iphone and ipod with itunes  The app continually crashes during the picture import.  AND by the way it takes 10-15 minutes before it even attempts to import photos.  The screen says importing photoes but doesnt try to optimize or anything for 10 minutes.  I have a 3gs with 16Gb so its not a cheap phone.  I have 10Gb free.  I have 6600 photoes.  This is very frustrating and undermines my confidence in your products.  My ipod is an ipod 4 with 16Gb also.  It does the exact same thing to it.  The last time, I had to import photoes a few at the time and with it taking 10-15 minutes each time for 6600 photos it is a long frustrating process.  But it will import every photo a few at a time.  The error message is just that itunes has stopped working.  no hint as to why. AND of course, my phone is out of use for the entire time.  You guys must not want to believe ur phones are a necessary tool...or maybe you dont want the consumer to believe it is.  I have tried to find solutions on your website as well as through other 3rd party communities.  Ultimately they were of no use.  I stumbled onto my solution by accident since Im a bit of a computer geek...a semi-geek.

    I have this issue too, I went into my Windows event viewer. (should have looked at this a year ago when this started)

    basically whenever I try to sync my ipod touch 4G 64GB it crashes iTunes when it begins the pictures. if im lucky ill get 4-5 on there before it stops responding. its not my system or anything im running win7x64 8GB DDR3 ram (Corsair XMS3) AMD FX Eight core processor.
    It is silly that iTunes cannot add pictures to apple devices. it shatters whatever incline I may have to buy apple products. knda like the Airport Extreem router my dad bought the new firmware, caused my router to not function... why release firmware that breaks a product. -_- <-- off topic but still

  • Upgraded iTunes: now cannot see the Podcasts on my iPod nano

    I know it sounds odd but I am genuinely sad that I have not been able to use my iPod for two days:
    I bought an iPod nano when they first came out and have been very happy with it. Two days ago I upgraded iTunes for the first time (to 7.6.2.9). Since then I have not been able to "see" the Podcasts on my Nano from iTunes.
    This is an issue because it is mostly full of music which I'd rather not delete, and the remainder is Podcasts which I download, load, and delete every day.
    If I cannot delete the old Podcasts, I cannot fill it up with new ones.
    The first thing I did was to upgrade the iPod firmware (to 1.3.1) but I still can't see the Podcasts. I have tried to read the documentation and go through all settings in iTunes, look on the web but with no success.
    My friend has a similar generation iPod and iTunes (~7.5). On this version of iTunes, the Podcasts are also gone. When I plug in my friend's iPod it has a Podcast icon as well as the Music icon. The older version of iTunes let me, I think, see the Podcasts together with the Music.
    Could I somehow have "deleted" a Podcast icon which iTunes need? Can it be restored save for wiping my beloved iPod clean? Can I gracefully downgrade to an old version of iTunes without losing my Music/Podcast library?
    Is anyone familiar with the problem?
    Regards,
    Allan

    Allan is this the same problem I have - downloaded a couple of chapters of a podcast onto nano - and they played fine - although I had to search for them to find them. Then connected to computer and wanted to search to delete them but no search brings them up? If it is the same, have you resolved your issue? I have same problem that no more room to store so I want to get rid of the listened to podcasts.(ps I'm on windows not mac) Thanks, Ele

    Not knowing what everything is:
    Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build" - Apple Support
    - Try another cable

  • Itunes crashes while updating ipod

    can anybody help me with this problem my itunes always crashes while im in the middle of updating my ipod

    Try using the iPod software updater to restore settings to factory default and then upload all you music back onto it.
    If that doesn't work, try to post some more details about it crashing; Does the iPod lock up your system? Does iTunes lock up? Does iTunes shut down?

  • ITunes crashed, now my ipod says it's empty

    I was adding some music to iTunes today, when it crashed. I closed it and relaunched it. Upon relaunching iTunes said it could not detect my iPod settings and I need to restore it. I cancelled that and ejected it. Upon looking at it, the memory is still all taken up, about 21gb free on a 160gb classic. But is says there is no music and no movies. What can I do, I no longer have everyting on it and some stuff is from friends I can no longer get. Surley there has to be some way to get my music back. Thanks for any help. It is most appreciated.

    You maybe able to fix the corrupted iPod, by using  Disk Utility->FirstAid->Repair, if you are using a Mac.
    or use 3rd Party tools like iPod Access, see this good user tip by tt2
    tt2 - thanks for posting all your great tips. (how about one on Disk diagnostics or Others segment)
