Itunes crashes on my ipod touch

I have an Ipod touch 4th generation. Whenever I do a long search for songs from popular artists, it crashes and sends me to my home screen. I've done many resets and 2 itunes restores on my laptop and still the same problem.  I still have a warranty and Apple said I may have to send it in for replacement.  does anybody have any ideas?  Thank You in advance.

  • ITunes crashing (only when iPod Touch is connected)

    It just started last night. Anytime I try to add music to the library or choose the folder to sync photos from, basically anytime iTunes has to access explorer to browse folder, it crashes and it doesn't give me any sort of error. It just tells me it has crashed and is reporting the problem. Like I said though, this only happens when the iPod Touch is connected. If I unplug it and then add music, it works fine but without it plugged in I can't add photos. Also, if I already have iTunes open and then connect the iPod, it crashes. I have to have the iPod already connected and then I can open iTunes.
    Any ideas? I switched to using iTunes as my default player because WMP had too many issues. I don't want to have to go back.
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
    iPod: 32GB iPod Touch 3rd generation on latest official firmware

    More info: iTunes generates a standard WinXP Send Error Report/Don't Send error message.
    The Error Signature is:
    AppName: itunes.exe
    AppVer: 8.0.2.20
    ModName: quicktime.qts
    ModVer: 7.55.90.70
    Offset: 009fd1a7
    I tried on another PC. Same crash. It seems either the problem is on the iPod Touch side, or some more general problem with iTunes.

  • 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.

  • On my ipad 2 I can't "see" the hundreds of spoken audio tracks that are in my itunes and on my ipod touch. Is there something I didn't do during sync up?

    On my ipad 2 I can't "see" the hundreds of spoken audio tracks that are in my itunes and on my ipod touch. Is there something I didn't do during sync up? The tracks are from voice recordings that were downloaded from an extrernal drive and weren't necessarily tagged as spoken audio. Do I need to go back into itunes and relabel these tracks so they will show up on my ipad2?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    With the iPad connected to the computer, while iTunes is running, click on the iPad name on the left side under devices. Click on the Movies tab and look for Movie Rentals. You want to "Move" the films to the iPad.

  • IPod Touch Newbie: What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?

    What is the purpose of the iTunes app on my iPod Touch?
    All it does is connect to the iTunes store if I'm near a WiFi connection. It appears to be useful only for impulse purchasing of media. So why is it not named "iTunes Store"? It appears to have no other function.
    Also, to listen to my iTunes music on iPod Touch I have to click on the Music button...not the iTunes app. What logic is that?
    Also, iTunes has synced a movie for me, but I have no clue how to view it on the iPod Touch. It doesn't appear in iTunes on the iPod Touch, and there is no "Movie" button anywhere. What am I missing? I can't find it anywhere.

    For purchasing music, downloading podcasts,etc.

  • All of my apps are in iTunes AND on my iPod Touch. in iTunes it the checkbox next to sync apps is UNchecked. should i check the box and have to reorganize all my apps or leave it "un-synced"?

    all of my apps are in iTunes AND on my iPod Touch. in iTunes, under my iPod, the checkbox next to 'sync apps' (in the Apps page under my iPod) is Unchecked. if I check it, all my apps will be all over the place and I will waste hours trying to get it back to the way it was. I don't really have a reason to check the box but I don't know. should I check the box and have to reorganize all my apps or leave it "un-synced"?
    by "un-synced" I mean how it is on my iPod and iTunes at the same time but its not synced
    this happened b/c I had to make a new user acct on my only [Windows 7] computer and when i clicked transfer purchases, this happened.
    any help would be greatly appreciated
    And as you can see ( besides my problem here) i am out of dropbox space. it would be nice if you can click http://db.tt/TQiPs59V to make an acct to give me and you more space

    You should ALWAYS make sure that everything is on your computer and backed up, most especially before any update. The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer regularly.
    If you have failed to do this, then you need to redownload:

  • TS1369 After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

    My itunes cannot detect my ipod touch 5g. How do I fix this?
    All I know is that my itunes has not been updated. If this is the problem, I tried to close and reopen the program but the "update" popup isn't popping up anymore and I'm not sure where I can manually update it myself.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    iTunes 10.7 or later7 (free download from www.apple.com/itunes/download)

  • 2 of my movies are no longer working in my iTunes or on my iPod Touch, One doesn't play at all and the other gets to about 29:00 than stops working and I don't want to buy them again. What's happening?

    2 of my movies are no longer working in my iTunes or on my iPod Touch, One doesn't play at all and the other gets to about 29:00 than stops working and I don't want to buy them again. Then also when I added a non-iTunes movie and tried to have iTunes make an iPod/IPhone version it gave me error -4. What's happening to my movies?

    I also have to add that the right earbud only doesn't work on my phone while i'm listening to music. If I'm face timing it's okay. what the heck.
