ITunes shows my music but when I connect iPod it shows all my music twice
I recently purchased a new computer so I used my iPod as an external hard drive to move my songs. I upgraded my iPod software and installed the latest and greatest iTunes on my new laptop. I thought everything went well until I contacted my iPod to my new computer. The iPod updated and I was able to view my iPod in iTunes. But I can't play any of the songs from the iPod folders (Recently Played, Top 25, etc). I can't even highlight the songs that are categorized under my iPod. I can play all my songs from my library in iTunes when the iPod is connected to the computer or not. Why are all of my songs showing up in iTunes twice when the iPod is connected? I know it didn't do this before the upgrade. Where did I mess up? Please help.
Sorry this was so long winded.

Suddenly iTunes does not open automatically when I connect Ipod
Hi,
iTunes used to open automatically when I connect my Ipod but now it does not although I did not change anything to my system.
In place of iTunes I now have the Windows 7 choice dialog in which iTunes does not appear.
How come?Open iTunes when this iPod is connected: has always been checked
I thought you said there was no such option above?
and nothing else
Okay. Head to the Start menu and choose the *Control Panel* and when it comes up choose *Hardware and Sound* from the list of options. Next choose *Change default settings for media or devices*. Scroll down to the bottom where you will find an entry for Apple iPod. Go ahead and change its action to "Take no Action." Any luck there?
I'm not quite sure why iTunes isn't opening upon connection, but we'll see where we can take this. I would start with removing iTunes and re-installing again using these instructions.

ITunes 11.1.1 freezes when I connect iPod Video
Ever since installing iTunes 11 on Windows 7 laptop, I can't plug in my iPod Video (5G) without crashing iTunes. Every update to iTunes does the same, including 11.1.1. My iPod works fine. iTunes 10 works fine (on a different computer). No way am I putting 11 on the other computer until this is resolved.
Well, I'm pleased to say that I solved the problem (but not the mystery). I tried all our Apple iDevices on my laptop (with iTunes 11.1.1), and they all worked OK, except the abovementioned 5G Video (including another 5G Video that I had). When the 2nd 5G Video worked, I realized the problem lied with the 1st iPod, so I did a "Restore" (to original settings), and that seemed to do the trick. I didn't think to do this before because the iPod worked fine otherwise, and worked with the old iTunes 10.7.
But here's the rub: I HAD to use the old iTunes 10 to do the restore...because iTunes 11 crashed before I could do a Restore. So, the mystery may never be solved, but at least all is now working. -
Itunes crashed too Blue Screen when I connect Ipod to computer
My Itunes crashes to the Windows blue screen of death whenever I connect my Ipod to Itunes. I have ran tried both the solutions that are posted in the support section of this website, but none of those solutions seemed to work. I have an Ipod Classic and am running the latest version of Itunes (8.02 I think). The error code that comes up in the blue screen is:
STOP 0x0000007F (0x00000008, 0x80154000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this is quite frustrating.Did you follow through all the links on the page?
You need to give information about exactly what you have tried in order for someone to help you.
I do not have an iPhone and know nothing about them so I can't give detailed help.
In general you tend to get BSOD with low level problems such as drivers or hardware issues. Are you up to date with the downloads from computer manufacturer's download site for your model of computer? If you follow the links there are various suggestions about the sorts of things that could cause trouble.
If you are getting a blue screen stop, it would help if you could post the exact error message. It should be some sort of numbers and text -
0x(zeros/letters/numbers) (CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
For example:
Stop 0x05 (INVALIDPROCESS_ATTACHATTEMPT)
Also is a file name mentioned in the error message? If so give the exact file name. This is very important as it may identify the driver causing the trouble.
if you're not seeing a blue screen (or just a flash of one), you can use this technique to make hidden blue screens appear:
1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
3) Click the "Settings" button in the "Startup and Recovery" section
4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.

I have 100 songs on i pod touch. But when i connect it to itunes it only showed 44 songs. What is actually happening and how to fix the problem so that all music in my iphone can be seen in my itune
If they are iTunes purchased music then go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn off Show All.
Next
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

I really need HELP!!! I have a laptop that runs with windows vista, and I have been having issues trying to get it to download the new version of itunes that would be compatible to the new version of ios 7 that I have already updated on my ipad. I have downloaded this three times, it shows that the download is complete, but when I connect my ipad to my laptop it is still telling me that I have to download the new version again and it will not sync with my ipad until I do. Does anyone else have this issue and can anyone help me figure out how to correct it? I would be most grateful!!

I have deleted all my videos songs and photos from my iphone 4 but when i connect to itunes it still shows 17gb free. how can I solve this issue without restore. Total storage of my iphone is 32 gb.
I don't see an issue, but if you mean why didn't you get most of your memory back you need to see what else is using storage. Go to Settings/General/Usage. Wait a bit for it to calculate storage allocation, then when it finishes you can see how much storage each app uses.

When Ipod is connected to Itunes, music that is used to have is listed, but, when disconnected, the ipod appears as if there is no music. Hasn't happened to the movies. Anyone have any ideas?
Since you did not mentioned about sync issues or problem, error messages.
You have to Sync the iTunes library with your iPod.
Refer to this tutorial, on syncing iPod

My iphone4s does not turn on,when I connect to power ,it shows the message "connect to itunes" but when I connect to iTunes,my pc does not detect my phone,so iTunes does not detect my iPhone.
Are you running the most recent version of iTunes for Windows on your PC? You may be running an older version that is incompatible with the 4s.
Hope this helps -
I have restored my new phone from I cloud but when I connect to my PC to put some music on it asks for set up as new phone or back up from a date from iTunes that is too old. Help it's doing my head in
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 and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. The message is more threatening than what really happens.
