ITunes very slow opening after connecting iPod Touch

Just bought a brand new 32gb, and have had to restore settings more than once as iTunes won't respond when connecting it to my Macbook. I have the latest iTunes and 2.0 for the Touch. Now it's responding but takes over 5 minutes. Other than restoring it, what other solutions might there be?

I'm having a similar problem. It seems like every other time I plug in the iPod touch to sync or charge it that it goes into recovery mode and I have to restore everything from backup. I have the 2.0 firmware update and iTunes 7.7 but this was happeing even before those upgrades. Any thoughts?

  • Itunes doesn't open when my ipod touch 4g is connected, consequently it won't charge or sync

    itunes doesn't open when my ipod touch 4g is connected, consequently it won't charge or sync

    I was surprised too, but I guess nobody gave a cr*p. I figured it out on my own. Basically, sync, then uncheck the box for the option to open iTunes when that iPod is hooked up, sync again, then check the box, and sync one last time. A dialog box pops up that asks if it's OK to install "iTunes Helper". Say "yes". Now it works.

  • ITunes will not open on my iPod touch - jumps to App Store review page

    When I open iTunes on my 8gb iPod touch, it starts to load (you can see the 'music', 'video' 'search' etc options at the bottom) but before anything actually loads, the screen closes, and then re-opens always on an Angry Birds review page in the App Store. I can navigate away from this page to other areas in the Apps Store, but it is always the same when i try to launch iTunes.
    I have double checked my iTunes on my computer (PC - running XP)and i am running 9.2.1.5 so i believe i am up to date. I can sync no problem on my computer and can see everything in iTunes when i'm connected to it. Oh, and iTunes tells me my iPod software is up to date.
    I am hoping there is something i can try before having to revert back to factory settings. I have only had the iPod about 2 weeks. And i have tried shutting it off, turning it on, etc.
    thanks!

    - Try a reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next, restore from backup
    - The try a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Stop programs from auto-opening when connecting iPod touch to PC

    I have a PC, and when I charge my iPod touch it wants to automatically open iPhoto, but cannot find it. So it asks which program I should use instead, so I stupidly chose Photoshop. Now every time I plug in my iPod touch, Photoshop automatically opens.
    Note: It's not about auto-syncing, I already have that disabled. The problem is I don't have a Mac, so I don't have iPhoto. It's trying to open iPhoto, but uses Photoshop instead.

    You may have inadvertently saved a picture from the web, if you hold the Home key it will snap a copy of the picture to your Touch. This is not the same as pictures you sync from iTunes. When you have a saved image on the Touch, that causes Windows to think it is a camera so it wants to open what it thinks is a related application.
    You can tell Windows to disable this, refer to this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1857
    Another solution is to connect the Touch to your computer and go into My Computer. Normally you won't see your Touch listed, but if there is a picture saved to the Touch as described above, it will show up as a "drive". Select it an you'll probably see the image saved to the Touch, so you can delete it (or move it to your computer if you want it for some reason).

  • ITunes sends error message when connecting iPod touch

    I have an iPod touch 2nd generation, and I decided to reset it as it was having problems, and now it displays the connect to iTunes message like when I first purchased it. I connected it to iTunes like it wanted, but when I connect the iPod to iTunes, iTunes displays the following error message "iTunes could not connect to the iPod "iPod touch" because an unknown error occurred (0xE000001)". I am not an uninformed person on these matters and have tried everything I can think of i.e. updating iTunes, using a different dock connector etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    Hi Maxwell,
    This is most likely a USB connection issue.
    Make sure the iPhone is directly connected to a high-speed USB2 port on the computer, using the cable that came with it.
    If the issue persists, try the general tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286

  • Itunes store not available after connecting iPod to iMac

    I have just been given an old ipod touch that was working OK. I reset the settings and content and when it had finished it came up with a graphic that I assume means I should connect it to itunes. I connected it to my imac and started itunes, which then displayed the message " We could not complete your itunes store request. The host is down." When I disconnect the ipod and re-start itunes I now get the same message without the ipod connected, when I try to contact the itunes store. Re-starting OSX (Lion) makes no difference. I am able to connect to the itunes store on another computer (I have not tried connecting the ipod to the second computer - I don't want to break that one too!)
    I've tried updating itunes but I get told that I can't connect to the update server either.
    Any suggestions please?

    I've had a bit more contact with the iTunes store support people by email and they have been equally unhelpful. Why do Apple employ people to guide me to support articles when the web site already does that perfectly well? They just ignore most of what I say and keep pointing me to the stuff I've already read.
    Ive also realised that the 'phone number they've given me to call is a premium number. This is where I draw the line I'm afraid. I refuse to pay Apple to tell me how I can connect to their store. I suppose I should be grateful Apple still allow me to buy music elsewhere.

  • I am using ipod touch 4g 8 gb, with ios6 software. It is getting very very slow even after i reinstalled the software. Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space.

    I am using ipod touch 4g 8 gb, with ios6 software. It is getting very very slow even after i reinstalled the software. Apps like temple run 2 and subway surfers are getting stuck and it is very very slow.My ipod has 2.6 gb free space. What is the problem. I am not getting to know. Even after i reinstalled these apps it is still getting stuck and it is very very slow. Is this what i get after paying so much money for ipod. Is this what i get very poor perfomance.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
