Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • Each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer.  This happened after the latest download, any suggestions?

    each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer.  This started happening after the latest download and my latest purchase.  The latest purchase doesn't show up on my iPod and itunes freezes at synching step 2 on 2.  Any suggestions?

    You should Reset your iPod, by
    1. Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 Secs till the Apple Logo comes ON.
    2. Disconnect the sync cable.
    3. Check the iPod Welcome screen, select language, go to menu (if you are lucky, your music are still on the iPod.)
    if your iPod doesn't show the Welcome screen, bring it to Apple Store.
    If the above is okay, (can see Menu but no Music)
    4. Close iTunes and Reboot your PC.
    5. Start iTunes
    6. Connect the iPod to the Sync cable.
    7. if iTunes ask to Restore, please do so.
    8. Sync your iPod. ( I would advise you to disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus program when doing this.)
    Good Luck.

    The iPhone 5, the Wall Charger, and the Lightning Cable are all covered by the 1 year Warranty. Make Genius reservation and take all 3 to Apple so the problem can be sorted and resolved.

  • After the latest update my iPod nano 7th gen only plays/shows 261 of 849 songs from my main playlist, but they're definitely all on it.

    I have a favorite playlist, where're all songs in I rated with 5 Stars. It's 849 songs big. After the latetst update (1.0.3) the count under the playlist's name on the iPod says there're only 261 songs in and when I scroll through, the list really ends way too early.
    But if I use the iPod's tab "Songs" I can find every song that's synced with the iPod, even the missing songs from my favorite list.
    Also under the tab "on this iPod" on iTunes the favorite list seems complete.

    Oh, Bluetooth also daoesn't work anymore!
    Thanks for this great update, that causes problems where everything worked fine before!

  • I cannot sync or edit my iPod after the latest update!

    After the latest iTunes update 11.2.2.5, I can no longer add new songs or playlists to my iPod! Is this a new revamp of how syncing works, or is my installation faulty?
    I can no longer see the playlists on my iPod through iTunes. If I want to add a new song, one or many, or add a playlist, it asks me to remove all my songs on the iPod.
    Even so, it refuses to let me add one song at a time, nor will it let me create playlists unique to my iPod. I have to create the playlist on my PC, and then sync it to my iPod. If I delete the playlist from my PC, it will also delete it from my iPod. I do have 'manually sync' turned on.

    Hi Zmajev,
    If you are having syncing issues after an update to iTunes 11.2.2.5, you may want to try updating to the most recent version (iTunes 11.3, which was just released yesterday) and see if the issues still persist. You may find the following article helpful:

  • How I "fixed" my iPod after the latest update screwed everything up

    I am not sure if this will help anyone but here is what I have been through and done. I also don't know if this "fix" will last. So far it has been 24 hours and my iPod still works. To be honest I was surprised anything worked since this whole fiasco started. Good Luck!
    (Please know I am not telling you to do this, just letting you know what I did and what happened. I have no idea if the slap to the hand actually did any good or if it is all just coincidence.)
    After installing the latest iPod updater my iTunes would not recognize my iPod and when connected to the pc the iPod would simple flash do not disconnect. This would not stop no matter what I did. Once I removed the iPod from the pc sometimes it would go to the menu and have music on it and other times it would not have music on it. On some occasions I would get the folder with the exclamation point. I did try to reformat the drive through the pc and/or restore it through the updater but since it kept flashing do not disconnect the updater could not "mount" the iPod and the pc was never able to access the drive. At one point I was able to access the drive and reformat it but it said it could not finish the formatting. After three days of trying to do all of these steps over and over I finally put in a ticket to have it repaired by Apple.
    I did reinstall iTunes to its latest update but kept the updater at the version that originally came with the iPod on the Cd.
    Which leads me to the final step. I had heard that other folks had slapped the iPod against their hands and suddenly they would work again. So I figured, at this point, what do I have to lose? (Please know I am not telling you to do this, just letting you know what I did and what happened. I have no idea if the slap to the hand actually did any good or if it is all just coincidence.) I plugged the iPod in and watched it flash its message to do not disconnect, I reset it and then forced it to say do not disconnect, then quickly disconnected it. Once removed I slapped the side of the iPod against the palm of my hand. The drive did spin up and the picture which tells you to plug the iPod into the wall appeared, which I did. It showed the apple logo, a status bar ran and then went to the menu and reset itself.
    I connected the iPod to the pc with the current iTunes program, old iPod updater version, with my playlists and library intact and it started to update the iPod with my library and playlists. Once finished I manually disconnected the iPod and safely removed the hardware.
    So far it works fine. I used it at home and in my car. I have not tried to use the new updater again. Honestly I fear what would happen.

  • After the latest update of iTunes does my iPhone and iPod not connect to iTunes but connects fine to Windows?

    I recently updated iTunes and when I went to put music on my iPod, however, iTunes could not pick anything up even though windows was. I then tried my iPhone and I had the same issue. I have gone through the steps off this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, and my problem was not solved. I have also tried reinstalling iTunes and got nothing. What should I do now?

  • Why won't windows 7 recognize my ipod touch after the latest updates?

    I have tried everything in the apple support links and nothing is working. My computer used to recognize the ipod as a device and in itunes but now it is not recognized anywhere it only charges. Is there anything that was done in the last set of windows updates that is making this happen? How do I get my ipod to be recognized again?

  • I have an ipod touch, version 4.2.1 (it says this is the latest update) can I connect this to iCloud?

    I have an ipod touch purchased in 2011, and now have a MacBook Pro, and an iphone4s. I want to connect this ipod to iCloud so that I can transfer the music to my new laptop and iPhone. Is this possible? Please help, I have been searching for a solution for a long time now

    You can't use iCloud without iOS 5 or higher so you won't be able to use it on your iPod.  Also, iCloud doesn't sync your music unless you subscribe to iTunes Match (see http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/).  If you want to transfer music to your devices, import it to your iTunes library on your laptop, then sync it to your devices (See either http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313 for Windows or http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113 if you have a Mac.)

  • IPod Touch (4th gen) will not sync music after the latest iTunes update

    I'm using iTunes on a PC with Windows 7 and after the latest update (iTunes 11.2.2), it will not sync with my iPod touch 4 (also updated to the latest possible version - iOS 6.1.6).
    Before the update there was no problem with the sync. And this iPod has always been synced only with this computer, and this iTunes library.
    After the iTunes update, several songs on my iPod were greyed out and unplayable (the library plays fine in iTunes).
    Now, when I try to sync, iTunes goes through all the steps, saying it finished syncing, without any error message but there is no actual change on the iPod.
    I've tried deleting all the music on the iPod, to resync the entire music library anew.
    Again, iTunes went through all the steps, finished "syncing" and nothing - and, of course, all the music on my iPod is now missing.
    When I check the "On this iPod" option in iTunes, the entire song list shows up there but appears greyed out and unplayable.
    On the actual iPod device, there is absolutely nothing in the Music app - no songs, no playlists.
    The iPod always shows "no data" in the Music app.
    Sometimes iTunes shows that I have 18GB of music on the device, sometimes it shows 0GB ...at one point it showed "no space available". But it has plenty of space - 23.5 GB of available space out of 32GB.
    To fix this I've tried the following:
    - automatic sync, manual sync, manually adding/deleting songs on the iPod, autofilling and replacing songs;
    - resetting my iPod by holding the (on/off and home buttons) and resetting through the "reset all settings" option on my iPod;
    - reset and restore from backup;
    - uninstalled and re-installed iTunes on my PC.
    - I've run the diagnostics tool in iTunes - all tests passed;
    ...plus various other suggested solutions I have found in the similar topics around here.
    (I've checked and there are no restrictions to the songs, the computer is authorized, etc.)
    Absolutely nothing works and it is very frustrating, as I usually only use the iPod for the music.
    Please help.

    After the latest iTunes update neither of my iPods are recognized by iTunes, so I am unable to sync.  When I run diagnostics it says no device connected.  My laptop sees my iPod so I know it is connected.  I have tried all of the recommended iTunes fixes and none work.  I tried deleting and reinstalling both an older version and the newest version.  The older version would not reconize my music libray.  Any thouhts?

  • HT1296 I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour.

    I recently purchased songs from my iphone.  All good...  But I then went to put them on my ipod touch.  They seemed to have downloaded but the songs wont play and the song title/the text, appears in a grey colour and there is a downlaod symbol in front of the song title.  what do i do next??  They play on my iphone and from the itunes library but not from my ipod touch.

    If the songs are still on your ipod, make sure autosync is disabled in iTunes on your computer, connect and right click on it in the device list, then choose "transfer purchases" to copy all bought media and apps from your ipod to your computer.
    If the songs are not on your computer and got deleted from your ipod as well, you can't get them back, unless you have a backup of your iTunes library as part of your computer backup.

  • Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
