Itunes keeps saying "welcome to your new ipod touch."

I updated itunes and all, and my iPod touch shows up in "My Computer" but I want to add a movie to my iPod Touch but I am unable to because everytime I plug in my ipod to my computer and go to itunes it says "welcome to your new iPod Touch."

Hello Mike,
Congratulations on your new iPod touch!  When you connect an iPod touch to iTunes for the first time, it gives you the welcome screen, but there should also be a button that says "Continue" or "Get Started" that you can click on to continue with syncing. 
Once you have clicked on one of those buttons, you can continue with the steps in the following article to sync content to your new iPod:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • ITunes KEEPS saying 'welcome/register your NEW Apple TV'

    For some reason, after no problems, now EVERY TIME I open itunes and click on the apple TV, it tells me 'welcome' and 'Register'!
    Once I click Continue, it's fine, and all content is there, AND sync works. But it's really annoying.
    I have reset the apple TV and done it all from scratch, even changed the name, but it remains - so the issue has to be with iTunes (where I also removed it prior to starting from scratch) or the iTunes store?
    Any suggestions appreciated !!
    Thx,
    dan

    thanks for the tip.
    went to
    https://register.apple.com
    and filled in the form.
    this morning when I turned on iTunes it asked again if I'd like to register. Except this time it actually went to the registration form. Again filled in all the stuff and PRESTO! all works like a charm without the annoying register question popping up every time I switch on iTunes.
    Thanks Winston!

  • Itunes says welcome to your new ipod... but my ipod is already full of content

    My daughter's iPod touch 5th generation is full of content.  She's had it for several months.  We tried backing  it up to our year old Mac Mini, running Mountain Lion 10.8.5.  We were first asked to trust the computer on the iPod, which we did.  Now iTunes on the Mac Mini is welcoming us to our new iPod - we don't want to erase it  and start over - just back it up.
    Thanks!

    Select setup as "New", the next screen should prompt you to rename your phone. Just name it what you already have it named. After that, you should be able to sync/backup and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. That message is more threatening than what really happens.

  • ITunes saying 'Welcome to your new iPhone'.

    I plug my 3 year old Iphone4 into my Mac's Itunes, and it says, 'Welcome to your new Iphone'.
    I am given two options; 1] Set up as a new iphone, or 2] Restore from this back up.
    I should add, on Saturday 22nd Feb to install the latest update the phone had to be restored to its factory settings but Itunes said I would be able to regain all my data from a backup. So I faced this same situation on Saturday after installing the latest software. The backup only returned my contacts, but not my apps, photos, notes etc. So over the past 2 days I have been adding all my apps again. The last backup option on the itunes is from Saturday.. which will mean I'll lose all my data again.
    Any advice on how to back up what I've got right now?
    And how to make Itunes realise my phone is not new, and I do not want to restore it, or return it to the previous backup?

    Since owning my iPhone I’ve had this happen to me a couple of times now, I plug in my iPhone to do a sync and recharge and get a message telling me “An iPhone has been previously synced with this computer” and gives me the options of setting it up as a new phone, or restoring from a previous back up. Neither of these options describe what I want, as I don’t have it back up on every sync I would lose too much data, and I certainly don’t want to start fresh.
    As it turns out, this screen is very misleading and not as threatening as it may appear. Selecting the option to set it up as a new phone does NOT revert your phone back to its starting point as the message may imply. The only change that is made is you will be prompted to rename the phone, after that your phone will sync and all of your settings and data will be preserved.

  • Can't get past "Welcome to Your New iPod" screen on iTunes!

    I don't know how to get past the "Welcome to your new iPod" screen everytime I connect my iPod to my computer. Please help!

    Same thing is happening to me. Its been happening for 2 1/2 weeks now. I think its because Itunes is down.

  • When you recieve an email from apple saying "welcome to your new mac" what does this mean

    hey people
    i recieved an email saying "welcome to your new mac"
    i have already got a imac and was wondering if this means someone has purchesed another mac?
    thanks

    Did the email ask that you click on a link or provide additional information about yourself? If so it's a phishing scam. Delete the message and ignore it.
    If you did buy a new computer sometime recently, then it's just a welcome email, nothing more.

  • HT2688 my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch.  how do i get this done?

    my daughter wants to move some of her music she bought on itunes for her shuffle to her new ipod touch.  how do i get this going?

    The music should still be in her iTunes Library - the one she uses to put music on the Shuffle. Simply connect the new iPod to that iTunes library, make the choices she wants for syncing the music to the iPod (which I guess, may now include putting all her music onto the iPod, since it has more storage capacity) and press Sync.
    Future Syncs with that Library will cause any changes of the Library to be copied to the iPod. Note that music is (or should be) copied to the iPod, not moved. There are two reasons for having the music in the Library:
    makes it easier to put the music onto a newer iPod, such as now;
    if or when the iPod needs a Restore, which will delete everything from the iPod, you will need to copy "the Library" back onto the same iPod.

  • HT201269 stuck on the screen that says "Welcome to your new Iphone"

    I need some help.. I've recently repaired my iphone 4 and had it in recovery mode. I plugged it in to itunes (using Windows on a PC) and it sorted itself out of recovery mode. A screen then opens saying something like "Welcome to your new iPhone" where my option is to set up as new iphone or restore from backup. (shown as a screen dump under nr 6 in the checklist here: iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device)
    I restore from a backup and everything seems to be going allright, when the restore is done iTunes says I will have to go through a setup on my phone. I do the setup and the phone now contains some old photos, textmessages, contacts, web favorites, e-mail setup and other things. But iTunes still shows the Welcome-page! I cant continue with the sync of my music and apps! my only option is to set up as new iphone or restore from backup again. I've tried a number of times to restore from backup and the only thing that happens is a new backup is shown in the scrollbar. (sorry, don't know if scrollbar's even a word..)
    Whats wrong? Anybody?

    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...

    If necessary Place the Device into Recovery mode...

  • Full automatic Itunes synchronization impossible for a brand new Ipod touch 5th generation

    Hey all,
    I bought a brand new Ipod Touch 5th generation which won't synchronize my whole music library through Itunes (very latest version of the app).
    The ipod runs IOS8 and the mac mini runs Yosemite latest version.
    I already had issue synchronizing music the very 1st day I had the Ipod touch. As a result, went back to the Apple store for changing it for another device, thinking the Ipod was faulty, which Apple accepted and changed my device for a brand new one.
    Since then, still unable to synchronize the full music library through itunes. I performed several full resets both on the mac mini and of the Ipod touch with no success. The synchronization seems to run fully normally with no warning pop up saying it failed or whatsoever and the sync process is very very long. But once done, my Ipod remains empty with no data at all.
    The weird thing is that Photos are fully synchronized with no issue at all.
    I contacted the Apple assistance who argued that my music library might be faulty and have corrupted files in it. So I cleaned it up, suppressing some files I had in double etc.
    BUT still, no success, I had to go through the entire library to sync manually, but even then, I was able to have on the device, only half of the library, i.e. around 25 go. once the ipod display 25 to 30 gb remaining, it won't sync no more files.
    Although I cleaned up the entire library and reset both devices hundreds of times, I have no clue why even manually, I'm completely unable to have my whole library automatically sync.
    I spent hours on the phone with Apple assistance to get some help with no success so far. I even re-installed Itunes completely, still without any result at all.
    I was only able to upload on the Ipod only half of the music library, and there are still 25 to 30 GB space remaining on the ipod and 20GB of music to be uploaded.
    The automatic sync process always fails any time I try to run it, except for the photos, books etc.
    I must say I also have an 160 GB Ipod classic with which I never had any problem so far, and which fully sync my whole library with no issue at all.
    I read on the internet that some other users of IOS8 are accountering the same issue with itunes.
    COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP, I'M DESPERATE, given the price of the Ipod I really do regret I bought something that does not work properly. Quite disappointed

    Yes the system just keep sync as everything is normal, but then no song is actually uploaded to the ipod.
    And the remaining space bar shows the ipod's empty.
    the automated process will just keep sync as if normal and the last step saying 'applying the modifications" just keep going on and never ends.
    I was only able to upload manually half of the albums, all songs comes from different sources; ripped from CD for great part, but also downloaded from the internet from trusted websites.
    All songs play normally through Itunes on the Mac Mini.
    But then when trying to sync the whole library automatically, nothing happens and I only get tags of the different albums, as if there, but actually it won't play none and the Ipod player just keep skipping as if no musical data is there.

  • Itunes asks to update my brand new ipod touch.. I do and now it wont work at all!!!

    just got my brand new ipod touch ... working good then itunes wants to update so I do now my ipod doesnt work at all! all I get is the apple and a line on face and wont even turn off!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I Have An Ipod Touch 4G That Is 8GB(Gigabytes) And U Was Jus Wandering About These Two Questions 4 So Long Do I Posted A Question

    You can buy whatever ipod you want.
    Damage is not covered by warranty so they will not replace it under warranty.
    All of your music/apps should be in itunes on your computer and included in your regular backup of your computer.
    Just sync it to the new ipod.

  • Can't drag/drop music files from Itunes 10.5.2 to my new Ipod Touch

    Greetings!
    I I spent about 1.5 hours on the phone with an apple tech and really feel like we've tried everything! Switching from manually managing music to auto synch and back, reinstalled ITunes, etc and I still can't drag and drop music files on to my Ipod. I am able create a new playlist, but music files can't be dragged into there either... Could it be a conflict between Itunes 10.5.2 and Mac OS X 10.5.8 that I'm unaware about? Any ideas?! I'm stuck!

    Siri works anywhere on the planet.. the local search feature may not work though.
    The release of a new product has little to no affect on locales where Siri will function.
