My first gen ipod mini does no longer sync with itunes 11.0. It says "cannot write or read". Ist this the end?

My first gen ipod mini (that I use in my car) does no longer sync with itunes 11.0. It basically says "cannot write or read". Is this the "end of life" of that ipod?

You mean you can't get to the Summary pane?
If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.

    My 2nd gen IPOD touch will no longer sync with itunes.  it tells me it cannot read the contents of the ipod then it says the ipod software server cannot be contacted.  Any suggestions?

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Then try restoring again.

  • My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i have purchased an iphone 4s and synced it with itunes.

    My ipod nano will no longer sync with itunes since i purchased an iphone 4s and synced the phone with itunes.  When I plug my ipod into my imac, it does not even read or recognize my ipod.  What do i do?

    Are you using the original cable that came with Nano and not your iPhone's cable?  Have you worked through the troubleshooting in this Apple support document?

  • IPod and iPhone no longer syncing with iTunes

    First my iPhone would sync. I would get a "could not sync" because iPhone timed out. It would start and do several things (backup, sync contacts) but then seemed to get stuck transferring an application purchased on the iPhone to iTunes.
    But then I realized that my iPod won't sync either. Again it starts but then I get a beachball.
    So at first I thought I had an iPhone problem, but now i think something must be wrong with iTunes.
    Anybody have any suggestions?
    Thanks, Tony

    I'm having a similar problem.
    I have 2 ipods.
    I have an Ipod Nano 2nd Generation, and an Ipod Touch 2nd Gen.
    My 1 year old HP has been in the shop for 7 weeks now, i bought a Macbook Pro.
    I try to sync either one of my Ipods and the device does not show up under "devices".
    I have authorized the Macbook Pro.
    What do i do???

    Hey jtom234412,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
    Thanks,

    Upgrade to Snow Leopard - it's compatible with the latest version of iTunes, and still supports PowerPC applications.
    $19.99 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Snow Leopard is required if you wanted to upgrade to Lion, anyway, which you may want to in the future if the latest version of iTunes no longer supports Snow Leopard.

  • Ipod 30gb no longer syncing with itunes 8.0.1.11

    I have a 30gb ipod video that is no longer syncing with itunes (8.0.1.11).
    I had about 10gb of music on my iPod previously, when I hooked it up to iTunes to add more music to it, it deleted everything on my iPod and only synced about 500mb of new music. I've tried restoring my iPod as well as restarting my computer & iTunes and have had no luck adding any music to it.
    I've scoured the iTune site for help as well as googled my issues and nothing has popped up.

    It was a precursor to my G4 HD going south. Had to rebuild from scratch and it's fine.

  • IPhone 4S (iOS 6) no longer syncing with iTunes

    Hi, this is my first post on Apple Support. I have several questions that I hope someone will be able to answer. Some regarding my iPhone, and some regarding my MBP.
    For starters, my iPhone 4S is running on iOS 6, and no longer syncs with iTunes. I am no longer able to add new music, I can only manage my photos through iPhoto. I updated to iOS 6 while at the Apple store and was told that everything transferred to my iPhone would now go through iCloud, which I wasn't too happy about. I thought that my phone was no longer syncing because of iCloud, and therefore deleted my iCould account (which didn't have anything important on it anyway), but that did not fix the problem. Rather than syncing, iTunes asks me to restore my phone back to factory settings. I considered doing that, but I don't have a back up on my MBP, so that is out of the question. Also, before restoring, iTunes does not give me the option to back up, which I thought it would.
    I would like to know how to make it so that my phone syncs with iTunes again so that I can manage my music etc. Does it have to do with iOS 6, iCloud, my MBP, or what? Is my iCloud still in the picture, even though I have deleted my account? If so, how do I disable it completely?
    Second question. On a different, older MBP (not mine, and probably running on old software), I burned a Maxell DVD-R containing just under 4GB of music. However, when I insert the disc in my MBP (running on 10.6.8), the disc reads as blank. I tried restarting with the disc in, as well as ejecting and inserting it several times, but nothing is doing the trick. I'm not sure if it's the brand, my MBP's optical drive, or the fact that it was burned on a computer that is running on earlier software than mine. I've read around on the internet with no luck. I have received two pop-ups, one that says it's blank and another that says it is not readable by my computer. Why?
    I've been a long time user of Apple, and rarely have any complaints, but my iPhone is really quite screwed up. The DVD-R issue is not a big deal, but I rely on my iPhone extremely (as most do), and not being able to manage it through iTunes is such a pain. I really hope someone can help!

    Wow. I never got back to this, I apologize. Today I started searching around online again randomly for a solution on Apple support. The message I am getting is "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone. Go to the Summary tab in iPhone preferences and click Restore to restore this iPhone to factory settings." I've tried many different things both on my computer and my iPhone such as reseting networks, changing the cellular data options, restarting my modem and restarting the wifi on my computer. None of it seems to work. Even if anything were to work temporarily until iTunes 11, I would love that, but I can't seem to find a temporary fix.

  • Ipod classic Model M9282LL not syncing with itunes 10.6.3

    My older ipod classic ver 3.1.1 purchased after 2005 will no longer sync with itunes. When I use to log it in itunes would auto open up and begin syncing. Have not done it in a while. Using an older mac ver 10.5.8.. Have i tunes 10.6.3.  Cannot afford a new computer with newer updates and if that is the case I feel its wrong...

    I fixed it. I changed ports on back of computer. There is a sync symbol on back of the older mac so I thought that was the only one to use, so tried another. my motto: Just keep at it and you can figure it out. Also with all the info via the internet its like a do it yourself library out there and the helpful ideas is fantastic.

  • IWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

    iWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

    Sadly this is not a new problem and I would not expect a forthcoming solution.  I bought an iPad 3G and the iWork suite at the end of August and iCloud syncing worked fine.  About the time Apple rolled out iOS 6 the syncing stopped working for me (without me upgrading or changing anything).  It has never really worked since.   Run iOS 5.1.1 on both the iPhone 4 and iPad 3G.  The "geniuses" claim that Apples iOS 5 requirement is not correct and that I MUST upgrade both to ios 6 (although I know for fact that lots of folks STILL have the iCloud probs even with its 6.  The last genius basically shrugged and non-verbally acknowledged the iCloud/iWork failing and suggested "just use Dropbox.". So why the **** did we pay for iWork!?!?!
    Basically the  iwork/iCloud Connnection is broken and I have yet to get a viable solution to repair the issue.  Sorry for the bad news.  For reference I have uninstalled/installed each iteration of iWork upgrades on each device without success.  I have reset all settings multiple times, turned iCloud off/on repeatedly etc etc without success.  I even wiped the iPad and restored from iCloud w/o intention (another Apple IPad "glitch" when I tried the "reset all settings" and the iPad decided to "erase all" instead.  The genius said "it happens.")
    Oddly, the Pages app is the only one that has marginally worked at times since the first probs.  However it is basically broken and non-functioning.  Certainly DO NOT trust vital documents to iCloud/iWork.  I lost a number of work critical docs in this whole annoying, messy process of trying to get what Apple promised as easy....

  • Why can I no longer sync with iTunes?

    I have 85.5 MB available and can no longer sync with iTunes with wi fi or plug-in.  I get an error message that says I'm out of space.  Whats the problem?

    As I said in my reply to your other post you need more storage available. Like about 1 GB or more. You have to delete stuff from your iPod.
