Itunes and Ipod not working

I am using my laptop this weekend to put songs from it on my iPod nano. The songs are in itunes but they will not go onto my iPod! What could be wrong? Thanks!

Hi,
Try Resetting iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond and if that doesn't work then try Restoring iPod to factory settings

ITunes and iPod not working with one account

Hi
I have iTunes 9.0.1 running on 10.6.1 on a MBP and I have just bought a new 5th generation iPod Nano.
I have been trying to set up the iPod on my partner's account on my MBP. iTunes just freezes every time I plug in the iPod and needs a force quit. When I try to set it up on my account it is recognised straight away. I have also been able to set it up on a new account but I cannot find any way to stop iTunes freezing on my partner's account. Her account works perfectly otherwise.
Strangely the iPod is seen by the Mac OS on my partner's account in that I can browse it in finder and the icon appears on the desktop. It is just iTunes on this one account that does not work.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Any thoughts?

I'm at a loss..itunes and ipod not working

I have had my music on itunes for quite some time. I went to play some music through itunes and the message I got was the song could not be played because the original could not be found. I have listened to the songs before and now it is giving me this message. I have 275 artists in itunes and I am only able to listen to 67. The other problem I have is I loaded some music onto itunes and only one out of the three transferred to my ipod.
Any help with these issues would be greatly welcomed

That message usually means that the songs have been either moved or deleted from the iTunes music folder, so iTunes can't access them. If you double click on one (as if to play it), you should see an ! by the song and a message asking if you would like iTunes to locate it.
At a guess, I would say that's probably the reason some songs have not transferred to the iPod. If iTunes cannot find them, it cannot transfer them.

ITunes and iPod not working together. HELP?

I can not make or receive calls! other functions itself. Internet, sms, whatsapp work. I restored as new iphone from the phone and from itunes and still not working.
Sorry for my english i'm spanish

I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc). Any suggestions? What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

Im installing the itunes and its not ******* working!!!!

This is so ******* irriating i got locked out of my phone and im trying to fix that by downloading itunes and its not ******* working so fix your god **** software

You are not addressing Apple here. The software is not mine. When you signed up to this forum you no doubt saw that it is a USER forum and we are all users like you. Now if you can put your ranting aside and ask your question clearly you might get some kind user to volunteer a solution for you

Can someone helpme pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

ITunes and iCloud not Working with Windows 7 64 bit ???

I just got a new computer running Windows 7 64 bit. I installed iTunes 10.5.2.11 (64 bit). First error was 'The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it as created by a newer verion of iTunes.' I closed iTunes and renamed iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.itl-old. Of course when I restarted iTunes, I didn't have a library but that was just a minor problem. iTunes created a new file named Library.itl.
Now when I start iTunes it says 'A required iTunes component is not installed. Please repair or reinstall iTunes. (-4204).' There's an OK button so I click OK. That error goes away and then the next error is 'This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove Tunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes.'
So I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled itunes about a dozen times. I downloaded it again to amke sure it was the latest version. Same errors every time. I uninstalled all my Apple stuff and reinstalled it. Same errors. Also, iCloud doesn't work. Error is "Application not found."
So ***? iTunes won't recognize my iPod touch or my iPad 2. Tried two different cables. Suggestions???

Try the repair tip in the third box first.

ITunes and iPod not syncing properly...please help

When i sync my 60GB video iPod with iTunes it starts to work, a few files or podcasts are copied then it seems to get "stuck" then an error message appears:
attempting to copy to the disk "My Ipod" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Ipod software and itunes are the latest versions.
I've restored the ipod without success, in fact this was a pain as all my music was wiped from the ipod and can only be put back on a gig at at time. I synced with itunes on my other laptop PC and this worked fine so i think the ipod itself is ok.
see below for the diagnostics report for the ipod:
Also iTunes is also having some problems closing down properly and can be a huge resource hog (50% CPU) sometimes, this was never a problem before. Should i remove and then re-install itunes? The only other thought i had was some kind of problem with album art which i have attached to music files using itunes art importer. I did this ages ago and it has never been a problem before.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance....

Re: conflicting software. I'm not sure what would conflict with iTunes. no new antivirus/spyware or firewall software installed.
hmmmm. let's follow up on that anyway. firewalls typically have to generate a new set of rules for iTunes (and QuickTime, and some of the itunes background processes) when you install a new version of itunes.
try the techniques described in the following document (but leave your ipod service enabled):
Using MSCONFIG to troubleshoot conflicts in Windows
do you still get that message after connecting the ipod after doing a selective startup?

Im trying to get my music from my external hard drive to my itunes and its not working. what should i do?

i set up my moms new desktop mac a couple of weeks ago and i did the same thing i tried to do on my macbook but its not working, yet it worked on my moms mac. so i dont know what to do. i moved the file from the hard drive to the itunes folder. then went to itunes, file add to library and clicked on the folder but nothing happened. so i went back and moved the music folder to the automatically download to itunes folder and it didnt work. i even tried drap and dropping the folder directly into the itunes library. it went blue so i knew you could drop it in, but nothing happened. i dont understand how it worked on my moms mac but not mine.

FIle>Add To Library. Select all the music on your external hard (Select all the artist folders) drive and hit OK. This will add all the music to your new Mac's iTunes library file.
Good luck and good choice on moving to the Mac

System Preferences, itunes and safari not working. Please Help?

Whenever i click on system preferences whether it be in the applications folder or in the dock, the window doesn't show. my system preferences is partly working because the very top menu bar with the little apple sign changes its menus to suit what system preferences has like system preferences written next to the little apple.
its the same with my itunes and my safari.
my menu bar changes when i click on itunes and if i press the play button on my keyboard i can hear music but no windows are coming up
the menu bars change as if the applications are open but no windows are coming up.
if anybody has any idea as to why its doing this and how i can fix it, please tell me.

Are you showing an signal when the SIM is inserted into the iPhone? Making calls and sending/receiving messages are two different things. Calls use the cellular side of things, messages uses data. I'm surprised that is all T-Mobile would do to check out your account is to test your SIM. What if they look at your account, is it provisioned correctly?
You can try to reset the phone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo. The phone will reboot. See if it works. If not, try to reset network settings. Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. The phone will reboot. Check they if it is working. If not, then you can make an appointment with the Genius Bar at the Apple store, but I still lean heavily that the problem is with the carrier.

ITunes and Paypal not working

I have an issue with iTunes and Paypal. First off, Apple support has been NO HELP! Last email from them said I should see about the fee based or expert service!?!?!?! I the support was nothing but 3 days of wasted time with them.
My problem is that iTunes needed me to re-verify my payment with iTunes which when I tried to do this Paypal setup the billing agreement then the browser was set to reopen iTunes but it just sits there in iTunes for me to continue again and starts over with Paypal billing agreement every time.
I have tried on different machines and different we browsers with the same problem. I have talked to paypal and they said everything is fine on their end and the billing is setup fine for iTuens to use so they say it is not a Paypal issue.
Anybody have ANY ideas for me to try? (iTunes support people need NOT reply since you have been no help at all except for trying to get more money of me)
Thanks

You DONT want to link your PayPal with Itunes because it has been used to extract money from peoples PayPal accounts for about a year. I got hit for 100 dollars on Xmas eve. Apple is hidding the facts about this, but PayPal is refunding money to others (and me I hope). No one seems to really identify how this is happening, some say pfishing, some say an Itunes hack - bottom line is don't buy ANYTHING on Itunes if you can help it, and surely don't set up any automatic payments for anything. Live support at Apple has been acting like they don't know what you're talking about for some time, and they simply tell you to send it all in an email and they will look into it. (They have been doing this for nearly a year, and must have about a million emails that they need to get back to the senders on - lol
I think that some of the apps that are free for the IPhone are actually logging keystrokes - but no one seems to be looking into a way to actually protect the phone with good spyware and anti fraud cleanup capacity - at least with any app that i would trust (Norton - McAfee). I sure wouldn't take a free security app from a IPhone or IPod developer !!

The itunes and appstore not working !! (cannot connect to itunes store) help me !!

My iphone 4 is IOS 5.0.1 and the appstore and the itunes not working !!!

I Have had the same problem. Updating apps or downloading apps from the App Store has been hit and miss. Also, I have found that iPhoto does not work properly. I have had a spinning wheel on my photos for over a week now. Apple have certainly stuffed this release up.

Itunes and quicktime not working!!! HELP PLEASE!!

I upgraded my itunes and stopped working. i uninstall everything that said apple in my pc and install them again and i keep getting this error:
"quick time Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
Any ideas?

"quick time Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
The broken QuickTime is most probably causing the iTunes problem. (iTunes needs a properly functioning QuickTime in order to work correctly.)
Let's try swapping out your QuickTime again, taking a few additional explicit precautions this time.
Head into your Add/Remove programs. Uninstall QuickTime.
Next, we’ll manually remove any leftover program files and folders.
1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
3. Open Program Files.
4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
7. Restart your computer.
Next, we'll get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
Switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
Go into Add/Remove and select itunes. Click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. Does it launch properly now?
