ITunes won't sync iPhone QuickTips with my iPod Touch

iPod Touch 2G (iOS4.2.1) used to work fine with the iPhone Quick Tips podcasts.
Suddenly iTunes (10.2.1) has stopped syncing these podcasts with my iPod Touch.
What gives?
Every time I sync my iPod Touch, I get an error saying that the podcast is not playable on my iPod Touch.
Has anyone else had this experience? Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks

Can't believe I didn't think of that! Thank you! It actually worked.

What can i do if iTunes won't sync my music to my iPod touch / iPhone?

After restoring my HD i installed iTunes again. When i tried to put my music back on my iPod i saw that some of the songs aren't on there anymore because iTunes won't sync it like it should...what can i do?

Sorry if i say this but honestly i'm really disappointed about everyone in this forum here because i was hoping to get help from someone but i didn't even get any reply to my question so i guess i'm gonna call the Apple support...

ITunes won't sync my music with my iPhone

I updated iTunes and my iPhone 4 to the latest versions, now my music won't sync. It gets to step 5 of 5 and says "waiting for changes to be apllied." After saying this for a good 3 mins the sync prosses just quits and my music hasn't synced. I ran the sync diagnostics and it came back that everything is good. Clearly it's not though.

Close and relaunch iTunes.
Reboot the computer.
Try a different USB port and cable.

Itunes won't sync iphone 3G

itunes hates me lols. i've uninstalled/reinstalled itunes twice because itunes keeps telling me whatever is in my usb is not recognised but sometimes appears in my computer as a camera. finally, it is recognised and begins to sync my iphone 3G and then tells me that something is wrong and it can't be sync. then it appears that all my apps were deleted. i tried with my ipod nano (2nd gen) but itunes tells me it's corrupt and to restore and then doesn't let me to restore.
i don't know whether it's my hardrive, my computer, itunes, my iphone and/or ipod, the usb port, the usb cord. it's driving me insane that i don't know what specifically is wrong. i've tried everything >.<
this is what it said when i ran the diagnostic test

One thing that might help out.
When your iphone is connected, on the summary screen, is the iphone set to sync automatically?
If not, you might need to drag and drop your music videos to the iphone.
If it is set to sync automatically, then go to the music tab and make sure the box is checked to sync music videos.
If it is, try right clicking(control click) on the iphone on the left of itunes under devices and reset warnings.
Now try to sync again and see if any error messages come up.
Hope this helps.

Itunes won't sync to my brand new ipod classic. It says "The Ipod cannot be synced because it cannot be found.

I have been onto Apple by phone, and into the Apple store where both of them recomended that it gets replaced. I did, got a brand new ipod classic, and i still have the same problem.
I have attempted to restore, but it won't let me for the same reason.
On a couple of occations it starts to sync!! however it goes through practicly the whole syncing process (12,000 songs, heaps of videos) and then just freezes up! The little rainbow orb spins forever until i have to force quit.
I have had my old ipod and my partners ipod regestered and used on the one itunes with no complications whatsoever, our old ipods sync perfectly with no problems at all.
very frustrated.
Is it my Ipod Box?
Or is it Itunes?
or does it not like me having more than two ipods registered?
with the last new ipod which was replaced and the current new ipod that's a total of 4 ipods regestered on the one itunes
My partner has a Dell Laptop with Microsoft. I downloaded Itunes on there, ripped one cd, formatted the current new ipod, and it synced the one cd i ripped with no trouble at all.
Has anyone else had the same problem with their Ipod Classic?
Mick

Is iTunes up to date (10.7)? Have you tried plugging the iPod into a different USB or using a different USB cable?
I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread to check your Hard Drive's health. He always covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

I'm probably being really stupid here, but I don't want my itunes library on my PC to sync/match exactly with my ipod touch, as it's only an 8gb one and I haven't got room on it for everything in my itunes library. I want to simply move stuff on and off

I'm probably being really dumb, but I can't work out how to remove music/vids etc from my ipod but retain them in my itunes library on my PC . I haven't got room for everything on my 8gb ipod touch. I just want to put stuff on there when I want to watch/listen to it. If it get's full I want to just take it off but put it back on at a later date. My ipod touch is new - I had an older generation ipod before and didn't have a problem with this. Is it because I have signed up to icloud or something? If so, how can I change it?

You can manually manage or you can sync by playlist/artist/album/genre/checked songs.
Maybe you should read the manual:

ITunes Won't Sync T.V. Show to iPod Classic

All of my videos have been converted to a specifically Classic 5th-Gen compatible MP4 format, and I've had no problem at all with all of the HUNDREDS of others in my iTunes library. But for some reason, one particular show just simply will not sync to my iPod, and I'm at a loss as to why.
Once again: None of my videos were bought from the iTunes store, and the dimensions, container, decryption, and absolutely all details about the video formatting is identical to the many, many other videos which have worked flawlessly as they were all created in exactly the same way, so file parameters should not be the culprit here.
I have my library set to sync only checked videos (due to space limitations) and have checked and double checked and triple-checked that this particular TV show is indeed checked when the iPod is synced. I've tried deleting all of the videos from the iPod and then syncing JUST this show, to no avail; I've also tried deleting and resyncing ALL the shows. No matter what I seem to do, iTunes simply will not sync this show. I don't get an "iPod will not play this file" error message or any kind of error message at all, and the videos play perfectly fine in iTunes. When I sync, the episodes just don't sync--they don't appear in the iTunes header saying "Syncing video 1 of 13" or whatever the numbers may be, and the sync says it finishes immediately. I'm really at a loss here.
The iPod is (I'm pretty sure) a 5th Gen iPod Classic, and the show is the first season of Metalocalypse. Does anyone have any ideas what the problem might be?

I FOUND A SOLUTION. at least, I was having the same problem as yall, and I found a solution that worked for me, I hope it helps yall too.
My issue was that music would sync to my devices, but some of the playlists would not have all of the songs in them that they should have had. I looked at the playlists, that I was having issues with, and they were all complex smart playlists. Meaning they had multiple levels of conditions in the smart playlist settings, and itunes 10 does not seem to suppor that. To fix it, I went through all of those smart playlists and made new smart playlists that had the same (or as similar as I could get them) conditions to my old playlists. I then re-synced my devices and all my songs appeared in my playlists.
I dont know why, but itunes 10 no longer supports some of the smart playlist rules that older versions of itunes did, so hopefully updating your smart playlists will fix this problem.
Best of luck guys.
P.S. if you dont know what I mean by 'complex' smart playlist, here is an example of what I mean:

ITunes does not sync songs/albums to my iPod Touch correctly, what's wrong?

I have my iPod set to manually manage music and videos and when I drag songs onto it through iTunes, it doesn't show up on my iPod right; like it says "unknown album" or it wont update the name, but shows up perfectly fine in itunes. I don't really know what to do, because I don't have the space to save all my music to my computer anymore ( I never had these issues when I set it to sync everything). Any suggestions?

Try right clicking on the movie then click on Advanced (at the top of the iTunes window) it gives you the option of creating an iPod/iPhone version .

Maybe if some details were provided about what happens when trying to sync then assistance could be offered to get it working.
Without details of the problem, there is little to nothing that we can offer for assitance.

How to sync iphone app to new ipod touch

hi, im new to this. i've been downloading quite a lot of paid apps from iphone 3GS. now i have this new ipod touch. how do i sync the paid apps to my ipod touch?
thanks

Welcome to the discussions,
you can use the apps as well if you're using the same account and if they don't use or need features that only the iphone has, for example the camera app or video apps.
Your ipod will be recognized as a separate device and you can set it up as you wish.

ITunes 9.2.1.4 won't sync iPhone 3GS with Outlook 2007 Calendar

iPhone sync was fine through all previous iTunes updates. Now new events in Outlook don't show up on iPhone after sync, and new events on iPhone don't show up on Outlook. If Apple can't fix this, I need instructions on how to revert to previous version of iTunes.
I have spent all day trying various stuff (reset sync history, computer overrides iPhone) with no luck. Best solution with new calendar events is to enter them twice, once in Outlook, then again on iPhone. This is NOT acceptable. Apple, why did this "feature" get released?

Sync now working. In Outlook, selected View, Current View, Events. Then View, Current View, Customize Current View, then Fields, all appointment fields, and moved reminder into the view. Then clicked every event that had a reminder, set the reminder to none, and eventually returned to the Day Week Month view. Next sync, all events synced both ways.
Success. !!

AppleMobileDeviceService.exe floors CPU and won't sync iPhone 4 with iTunes 10.4 and XP

I just updated iTunes to 10.4.1.10. After the upgrade, the AppleMobileDeviceService.exe runs one of the two cores at 100%, resulting in 50% CPU utilization.
When I connect my iPhone 4 (4.3.5) the sync starts but hangs on the first backup step. At that point, both the AppleMobileDeviceService.exe and iTunes are flooring the CPU's... now at 100%.
I've reintalled iTunes without luck. I've also re-booted the phone, which has solved sync issues in the past, with no luck.
I can see others having issues like this, but I haven't seen a resolution yet.
Thanks!

I called Apple Support today and they instructed me to follow the same article. Follow it closely (use the detailed steps). It did work for me.
I did have a lot of trouble unistalling the bonjour service. It did unistall without error, but the service and the directory and app and DLL where still left. I could not delete the DLL, even after the restart. I manually removed the service and rebooted again, still no luck. I even ran a windows systool to look for open file handles to the DLL and found none... So, I can't explain why I couldn't delete it.
Other than that, the instructions went smooth. I simply ignored the bonjour issue, reinstalled, and my problems were solved.
Before unistalling, I would export my library (just in case). Do this from File --> Library --> Export. This may help you preserve you playlists if something goes south.
Also, I would backup all of my library in the MyDocument --> MyMusic --> iTunes Folder.
I didn't need either of the above, iTunes was able to read all of the original files and preferences when reinstalled. But it's better safe than sorry.

I just updated iPhoto, now iTunes won't sync my photos with my iPhone.

Earlier today I was able to sync photos just fine.
Then I updated iPhoto via the Mac App Store.
I connected my iPhone and got this error message from iTunes:
iTunes could not locate a supported photo application. Would you like to change your photo syncing options?
After I updated iPhoto and opened it, I had to upgrade my library. Could this be the problem? What do I do now? Apple Software Update doesn't show a newer version of iTunes available.
iTunes 10.6.3, iPhoto 9.3, OS X 10.7.4

That can sometimes indicate a photo cache issue. If you remove the current ipod photo cache, does that get you past the error?
For instructions on where to find it, see the following document:
iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder

My iTunes won't sync my music with my iPhone 4

I noticed some songs were missing from my iPhone so I unsynced all the songs. When I tried to put them all back on my phone they don't sync. It says they're synced but no luck.

ITunes won't sync purchased songs to my iPod after Time Machine restore?

The hard drive on my MacBook Pro went bad. Lucky for me, I had made backups with Time Machine. I got a new hard drive and restored everything from the backup, via a migration.
I just went to sync and charge my iPod and it refused to sync every freaking song that I've ever bought from the iTunes Store. 77 of them. In fact, it erased them from my iPod. I'm really very unhappy about this, is there some way to fix it?

Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes or play a purchased song, supply your account information, and sync the iPod.
