Mini not updating

The iPod mini has no problem charging, but it will not update. The songs are added to iTunes but can't get on to the actual iPod. What can I do about this?

I'm just wondering ...
It seems like everyone who is having problems with getting the iPod mini (regardless of the iPod's generation) to be recognized by iTunes - even though Windows recognizes it fine - is using iTunes 6.0.1 (myself included). Was anyone having this seemingly irreparable problem before they downloaded 6.0.1? With older versions of iTunes I never experienced this. Unfortunately, I don't have an older version saved at the moment, or I'd test it and see if it works with an older version. Would be interesting to try ... seems like an awful lot of people are having this same problem and are unable to resolve it using the steps provided by Apple, so I would not be surprised if it is related to the software (version 6.0.1) and not the hardware.

Ipod mini not updating in itunes on emac

my mini wont update on my emac in itunes, we have the latest updates for both ipod and emac itunes etc.....
first it says that the ipod is connected with another lib and if i want to have the ipod use my library (which is the only lib it has ever been updated with)..
then it gets ready to copy and says that the "disk cannot be written to or read from"...
please help i have tried re setting my ipod and the computer and i dont know what else to do!!

See if anything here helps: "-36 or "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod or "Firmware update failure" error when updating or restoring iPod
Failing that try restoring your iPod, this will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings so make sure you have everything backed up. Once the restore is complete it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings

TS1398 Just got the mini, specifically to get jobs on a certain website. Jobs change all the time. When I go to website, it has not updated from the first time I logged in on the mini. It works on my laptop just fine. HELP!

My sons just bought me an ipad mini especially so that I could check a certain website on which I sign up for jobs throughout the day. The website is updated constantly throughout the day with new jobs and the status of the jobs I already have accepted and worked on. (It shows the percentage of the job that has been done.) It worked fine only the first time I logged on with the mini. Since then (yesterday,) when I check the website, it lets me log in, but I only see the same exact information that was there the first time I went to the website using the mini. It seems to be 'frozen' on that particular first look. It doesn't update at all.
I know it is not updating because I have also been checking with my notebook computer and with the notebook, the website is up to date.
Maybe its Safari?
I had the same problem when I used a friend's iPad.
I wonder if there is a setting or something that I could change to allow the website to update to the time I check it.
If not, then the ipad mini is a terrible disappointment and I would like to return it.
If you can help me, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks in advance...

My mac mini is not updating its software to OSX Lion v10.7.5, which I need for iCloud. I would like to use iCloud on my desktop along with my iphone and ipad but the auto updates are only upto 10.6.8.

You need to get the newer version from the Mac App Store.

Does the iPad connect to other networks?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Meta data (song information) not updating in mini player for radio stream

I notice in the mini player view, the meta data does not update for radio streams. This is a big deal for me because I listen to radio stations all the time, and I don't want to have to switch between the mini player and full player to see the song information. This wasn't an issue in iTunes 10 (and previous versions as I recall), where I could just click to toggle between the name of the station and the meta information.

I understand your concerns, but regarding the headphone jack, this is standard procedure. While you may have checked these things, and know more about the player, a lot of people will not check the basic things before contacting support. The Advisors have to check these things with you first to make sure they've been checked.
As far as transferring data goes, it is true that unfortunately we cannot transfer data over for you or make a back-up. Doing this for all the returns for different players would require a lot of resources, time and money, making the RMA process a lot longer for everyone. In some cases, it's even necessary to replace the harddri've or the whole player.

IPod Mini 'Recently Played' playlist not updating...any ideas?

Does anyone have any idea why my 'Recently Played' playlist on my
iPod mini would suddenly stop updating itself?
I tried to fix it by connecting to my computer and deleting the playlist
through iTunes and creating a new 'Smart Playlist' with exactly the
same settings of the last 'Recently Played' playlist but now, the new
'Recently Played' playlist on the iPod is just staying the same, its not
updating, its the songs that were played on my computer before I
disconnected my iPod, so it's not even the songs from my iPod...
Hope that makes sense.....anyone got any ideas?

I'm not a user of smart playlists, but could it have something to do with this?

Ipad mini apps not updating after ios8.2 update

apps not updating after software update ios8.2 on ipaD MINI WITH RETINA SCREEN

Turn off any auto-update, if it is on, then tap any of the "circle icons" showing that a download is in progress, in order to stop the download. Then go to the Settings and reset the Network Settings. After the iPad starts back up, then check to make sure no apps are currently in progress of downloading. If any are, stop them again, and reset the network settings again. When it starts up again, none should be in the process of downloading. Then from that point forward, only download manually and never more than two at a time. If it is more than 100 MB, then do only one at a time. If any gets stuck at that point, then stop the download and reset the Network settings.
That should take care of you for now. We'll see what another update brings ... IOS 8.2 (which might be the next one).

My email accounts are not updating on my iPad mini. Wifi is connected, my iPhone is getting email. Tried rebooting x2. Just states was updated yesterday.

not able to get IPad mini to update email accounts. Wifi is connected, have rebooted. Mail is coming through on iPhone 5.

It could be the network, but what surprises me is that nothing else is being blocked at all. And I can't seem to change the port that Mail is on. I tried a port scan, and it came up that that port is blocked (993), but it also came up that every other port I tried was also blocked. I used a Mac to do a Port Scan for my iPad's IP, but it wasn't detecting any open ports. So I don't know if it is an issue with the network, or perhaps with my iOS devices. The network has 802.1X security I believe (I need a username and password to login), so unsure if this would affect it at all?

My itunes will not update my ipod mini-please help me

For the last couple of days, I have been updating my itunes with new music. However, when I connect my ipod to my PC it does not update my ipod mini with the new music. The other night it was connected and said it was charging but didn't update and right now it's plugged in and says nothing, I think the battery died. So I am wondering how in the world do i get my ipod to update. Please someone help me! I've already tried rebooting the computer, what else works?

Sounds like you've got connection problems, Al. Also, the exclamation mark means you need to restore your iPod.
Run the iPod Updater (Start - Programs - iPod) and only connect your mini when it tells you to connect and iPod. This time, however, connect it to one of the ports on the rear of your computer (if you have a desktop).
If it's still not recognized by the updater, reset it: hold down the Menu and Center buttons until you see the Apple logo.
If it's recognized by the updater, choose the Restore option and follow the instructions from there.

IPod mini will charge, but not update songs

Just last week my ipod mini stopped updating songs. Before that it was working fine. When I plug it in, it charges but iTunes doesn't pop up and I can't update my songs into my iPod. Someone Help Me.

Hello, my ipod charges when I connect it to the computer, but it doesn't appear neither on ITunes or the computer itself. As soon as I put the USB in the port, a message in the right corner comes up saying that the USB peripheric isn't recognised..So obviously if ipod doesn't appear on Itunes, I can't put new songs on it.
I tried connecting it to other computers and it works.
What can I do??? Thanks
