ITunes says sync is complete on shuffle, but Shuffle is empty?
I have a new Shuffle Gen 4. When I try to sync it, itunes says "sync is complete," but nothing is on the Shuffle.
Good to hear you have resolved your problem. Can I suggest that you mark your second post (not mine) as "this answered my question"?
It won't give you any points, but it will allow anyone else with the same problem who is looking through the list of posts (and I have seen several posts on this subject with Windows 8) to see that there is a solution to "No music syncs, even though iTunes says sync is complete". Then they will solve their issue too.
Hurrah!
Win win!

Itunes says memory on ipod is full but is actually empty
Hi, I hope someone can help me with this:
I recently downloaded itunes 7 as recommended for my Ipod Nano 2nd generation, my ipod is showing, but when i try to sync my library with my ipod it tells me there is not enough space to do this, the memory bar on itunes tells me my ipod is full but in reality it is empty. Has anyone else experienced this? Can anyone tell me how to fix it? Thanks.
PC Windows XPA restore will usually fix this.

My ipod touch (model A1213) is not syncing properly. I have updated the software to the latest (2.2.1) and have even resored it. Itunes says it is working and updated but will not sync and apps. Error message says that app will not sync because a newer version needed.
2.2.1 is not the latest available for any ipod touch.
Is yours the original ipod touch?
If so then:

Try syncing songs one at a time to see if there is a problem song(s).
Do the songs play in iTunes on the computer? -
I've upgraded to itunes 11.1.4 Now my ipod and my wife's will not connect/ sync. Itunes says it can detect an ipod but it can't be identified correctly. I have uninstalled and re installed ITunes but it still doesn't work
I too am having the same problem. I'm glad to know it's not just me

iTunes says I have over 9GB free but when I sync it says I can't as i don't have enough storage and need another 1.3GB! it's driving me mad!! help!!
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.

Itunes says "syncing" but ipod does not. 2nd gen nano
My wife has a 2nd gen nano that will not sync. Itunes says "syncing" but ipod does not, you can scroll through the menus and use it like it was not connected. When I first connect it, the do not disconnect sign appears then after a few seconds the main menu. She has used it for 2 years and it worked fine until today.
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

i updated itunes 11.1 yesterday and now im trying to get my music on itunes to sync onto my iphone 4s but when i connect it through usb...Itunes is saying " waiting for changes to be applied"? so i dont know what to do cause i just want to sync my music from itunes to my iphone 4s
I had the same problem and the fix was so easy that I felt a little silly after spending 2 hours with an Apple Technician. At the end of it all, what I had to do was make sure ALL music was deleted from my iPhone 5 by going into usage and clearing out the music folder. All I had to do then was turn my phone off and turn it back on again. I had not done this after my phone upgraded to the new 7.0 IOS. What's the first thing you do when experiencing computer problems? Reboot! It fixed my problem and now my iPhone 5 synchs perfectly when I had it connected to my computer. I am also on iTunes version 11.1.

ITunes says updating files on my iPod, but podcasts do not show up.
I have an iPod Classic 80g. It is set to manually manage files and disk use is enabled. Recently I had to reformat my PC and reinstall the OS and other programs. Prior to this I was able to click and drag the video podcast I subscribe to directly to my iPod. Now, after the reformat, when I drag the new podcasts to my iPod, iTunes says its updating files my files, but when its finished there are no files added to my iPod. When I try to add it again, it no longer says it's updating, but still nothing happens. I have checked in all available folders incase it was adding to the wrong place, but it is nowhere to be found except fot being temporarily in the recently added folded. All other media types like movies and music import without a problem to my iPod.
Please help.I found this answer on http://forums.ilounge.com/archive/index.php/t-197870.html
I tried it and it worked. I am not tech savy, but I am in the process of downloading all of the other shows this way. Once I entered in the url in the "sync podcasts", it then allowed me to place all of the newly downloaded podcasts under podcasts. I played around for a while, so not sure I can walk you through it, but it will work.
Once I had synced the podcast, I went into podcast, dbl clicked on the original subscribed podcast show, that brought up the other shows and I downloaded them, one by one. Am trying a mass download, but cannot seem to do that.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, you have to subscribe to a podcast and select "Sync podcasts" for it to show up under "Podcasts" on the iPod. Even podcasts downloaded through iTunes won't show up here if you don't subscribe/sync but just put them in a playlist. -
Itunes says it's updating my ipod but it's not...
Hi,
I'm running a Dell/Windows XP environment with an ipod mini (Version 1.4.1) and itunes (Version 6.0.4.2).
My problem is that itunes says it's updating my ipod but it's not. When I copy songs across to my ipod, itunes provides the message "copying X of X songs" and I can see them appearing on screen, however when I eject my ipod and search for songs there's nothing on it.
Other strange things are happening such as:
- each time I connect my ipod to my computer, itunes wants to 'set it up' just like it's the first time I've ever used it;
- itunes shows my usage of my ipod at about 50% full, however if I go my ipod directly settings->about, my ipod shows 0 songs and 100% capacity remaining.
Strange isn't it...
To correct this error I've tried all of the apple remidies:
- restart computer;
- reset ipod;
- update itunes;
- restore ipod;
- update itunes software.
None of this has fixed my problem.
I've searched all the support articles and can find nothing that matches this problem.
Please can anyone help!! This is so frustrating and has rendered my ipod completely usless.
Thanks
Brenton

After my friend locked me out of my iPhone with too many wrong password attempts I restored my iPhone via recovery mode and now it is showing that picture of a cable leading towards itunes, and itunes says the sim is not supported but it is the original sim. How do I fix this?
Something went wrong with the update, this can and does happen with every version of iOS.
There is nothing wrong with the update.
Simply restore the device via iTunes on the computer.
If iTunes is stating it will take hours to update, that indicates an extremely slow Internet connection and is likely the reason the OTA update failed. -
I was transferring information from my old iPhone to my new iPhone 5S via iTunes and I have completed the process but my phone will not restart, it is stuck in the "Connect to iTunes" screen. Any ideas?

I downloaded the Vevo and Cityville apps, and iTunes says they're on my iPod, but I can't find them. Is there some place they go on the iPod?
Try using the Spotligh search feature on the iPod. To get there, swipe the Home screen fully to the right.
Also, if they are Games, they could be in the Game Center.folder -
2 errors: "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable" and the sim says "searching" while iTunes says there is "No Sim installed" - but of course, there is! Any help please??
Hi Peter,
Thank you for the note - I have seen similar replies on other posting errors and I see how that could make sense. The thing is, my iPhone is not jailbroken - it is from an authorized distributor. However, when I told them about the "no service" problem on the sim, they were unable to assist. Then my phone messaged that an itunes restore was required - so I did that, several times, to the error message now noted on my post. I wonder if there is some other way to over-write this message? Thanks very much. -
