ITunes says I have 22.217 gb when I only have 1,252 songs why?

So iTunes says that I have 22.217 gb when I only have 1,252 songs. Why? I just got a nano after having problems with two last year and when I try to sync my music it says that I have too many songs and not enough space for my 1,252 songs. It's a 16gb nano and I should be using only 4.5 or 5 gb. Why is it saying that I have more music than I really do? I'm taking it back if Apple can't help.

Your problem is you are ripping your CDs in AIFF, as large as you can get. They will sound great but you will get far less of them on your Nano. Apple computes their estimate of the number of songs you will get on a device based on a 128 AAC song of 4 minutes length, which will be about 4.5Mb in size. With your AIFF songs that are 10 times that size you will only get about 1/10th as many songs.

Check carefully. Perhaps you are trying to copy 9 GB plus 1.3 GB for a total of 10.3 GB. That would give you the message you see.

Why does itunes say i have the latest version 4.2.1 (8c148) for my 3rd gen iPod touch when it should be iOS 5?

why does itunes say i have the latest version 4.2.1 (8c148) for my 3rd gen iPod touch when it should be iOS 5?

Be sure it is really a 3rd gen. Some people with 2nd gens were told they were 3rd gens. Identifying iPod models or Look up specs by Serial Number. If it is a 2nd gen, then you can't upgrade.
IF IT REALLY IS A THIRD GEN iPod Touch, then you first need to upgrade to iTunes 10.5 in order to download iOS 5 because older versions of iTunes don't support and can't sync with iOS 5.

Itunes says I have 2.5 gigs of music on my iphone 5s but my iphone says I have no content. Any idea where my music went to?

iTunes says I have 2.5 gigs of music on my iPhone 5s but my iPhone says I have no content. Any idea where my music went to? I deleted all my music and started fresh with no music. I uploaded several artists worth of music to my iPhone from iTunes and synced the phone. It seems to load from iTunes to the phone but when I disconnect from my comp it's all gone.

Hi Tim
iTunes will not import non-iTunes purchases from iOS devices. If you still have your old computer you can transfer your iTunes library to your new one.
How to move your iTunes library to a new computer
If not you will need third party software such as this:
TouchCopy

My Itunes says I have 19.3GB but my Iphone says I have 9.7GB - why is there a huge difference?

Anyone know the reason for such a huge difference?

You may need to first add a valid card number before you can remove it.

ITunes says I have 2 computers authorized but I really have 3

iTunes says I have 2 computers authorized (iPod Touch and MacBook Pro). However, until recently, I had 3 computers authorized but my iMac mysteriously disappeared from the list a few days ago. When I try to authorize my iMac, iTune says it's already authorized. Why did my iMac computer disappear from the list and how do I get it back on the list so I can continue to update Apps, etc, on my iMac?

Even though my iMac wasn't appearing in the authorized computer list, I tried to de-authorize it and this evening it worked. It actually de-authorized the computer. Yesterday I tried this same step and iTunes didn't allow me to de-authorize. After I de-authorized, I authorized the iMac. However, the iMac still wasn't appearing in the authorized computer list. I logged out of iTunes.
As a last resort, I decided to play a t.v. movie I had purchased on this computer using my one an only iTunes account. After I played a couple of minutes of the movie, I stopped it and logged into my iTunes account.
Hurray, finally my iMac is appearing in the authorized computer list and I'm able to update my purchased apps on my iMac.

ITunes says I have App updates- but will not update.

I have restarted iTunes, the computer, downloaded the new update (8.1.1 is it?), and tried a million times. But no matter what, iTunes says I have 6 App updates. So I click on the "6 Updates Available" button, but all I get it that all of my app have been updated.
I also thought that it might have to do with the fact that I had Apps that were my sister's put on my account using that whole "Authorize Computer" thing. Both of the computers are authorized. So I had her update hers, but it's still not working.
So if anyone has anything that can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrea

How I fixed the problem was to "select all" of my apps in itunes and right click and delete, but keeping my files. The 1 update went away. So I synced my ipad, and transfered my apps from the ipad back to the computer.
By keeping the files when deleting them in iTunes then syncing them back from the iPad, you should now have two of all your apps in Music> iTunes> iTunes Media > Mobile Applications.

Itunes says it has available updates but when I click download updates, it says no available update.

This happened to me as well. I use an iMac as my main machine, but have a laptop that my daughter uses. I use my Apple ID on both computers. I would occasionally see on my iMac that I have updates available and would click update and get the No Update Available response, yet the red badge remains displaying that I have an update. Found that a few people had this happening as well via these forums so I checked on the laptop and it updated. I then noticed the red badge on the iMac had disappeared as well. If you have any other computers that share your Apple ID, I'd run update on those to see if it fixes your issue.
Thanks,

ITunes says I have authorized five computers so I can no longer play music I have purchased. I have not replaced my computer once. Why does iTunes say this?

Hey Christownsend,
Thanks for the question. To troubleshoot this issue, you may want to try deauthorizing all computers:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
1. Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
3. Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
Thanks,
Matt M.

My Iphone 5 says it has 7552 songs on it, however my iTunes only has 4125 on it. How do i get my phone to stop saying i have that many songs?

My Iphone 5 says it has 7552 songs on it, however my iTunes only has 4125 on it. How do i get my phone to stop saying i have that many songs?

It seems to happen with songs that were purchased before synchronizing the new iPhone
I will tell you how I fixed it.
Note: I have iTunes in spanish so I will try to translate and figure out the commands that appear on ITunes in english. I will put my translations into brackets. English is not my native language. I will do my best.
The workaround is:
1.- Dragg no working songs from iTunes to a folder on the hard disk. (Only for backup purposes)
2.- Deleted those songs from iTunes library.
3.- On the left panel in ITunes click on "Purchased" under the STORE option. All your purchased songs will appear on the right panel
4.- At the bottom and right there is the option : "Download Previous Purchases". Click there.
5.- Click on the option "Are not in my Library" (top right)
6.- The songs you deleted from iTunes will appear.
7.- Downloaded them again. (You have the option to download at the bottom right)
8.- Syncronize your iPhone and that's all.

No, sorry... did not happen becasue no such model exists.
If the device is in recovery mode, any data on it is already lost.
The only options are:
Restore the device to get it functional.
Enjoy the paper weight.
For what reason did you attempt to update the device without first ensuring that your data was safe, meaning backing up the device and copying important pictures/videos taken with the device to a computer?
