My Ipod is plugged in, but my computer says that is unable to sync, restore, or all of the above because there is a duplicate file name. Then when I un-plug my ipod it stays frozen on the connected screen. What do I do???
Are you getting that when connecting to Mac OS or a Windows OS, Kaitlin?

I am trying to download music on to my 4th gen Ipod touch but it keeps saying that It is unable to download song/ could not download at this time. Can anyone tell me how to download my music?
Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer..)
Release the Buttons... -
About two days ago my iphone had been charging all night, yet when i looked at it in the morning it said that it was only at 1% battery, so i restarted my iphone, after i turned it back on, the battery said 96% but after every 3-5 minutes it would shut down, then turn back on again, so i plugged it into my computer to sync and restore it, but it would not sync. I decided to restore it anyways, and it was put into recovery mode normally, but now it says that "The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (29)." and it keeps on attempting to restore it but it is not working. ive left it plugged into my mac for about 12 hours now. I have no idea what to do.

What is wrong with my computer or is it the program site that I am in? It keeps telling me that I must install Adobe Flash Player but Adobe says it is installed and up dates do not apply. Help because I cannot go further on the site that I am on and it is a secure site that I have used many times in the past.
What browser are you using? So you have a website pulled up and it is a full screen flash player trying to play or is it a area of the page with a player claiming on the player to install flash?
Check out this link: Flash Player Help
1. Test your Flash Player for versions to make sure nothing happened with that link. If Adobe's Flash Player test through this link says your player is working and up to date then,,,
2. Check your add-ons or extensions, depending on the browser for what they are called. Make sure Flash Player extensions are enabled. That allows it to play within a webpage.
3. Check your Flash Player settings itself. There are settings where you restrict, approve, and so on in different ways. The link I shared with help guide you.
4. Check parental settings. My son plays on this parental control software that always restricts the Flash Player with his games, or videos on Disney, Nick, and other channel websites.
5.I used to have a computer that claimed this all the time. It drove me crazy. I found out for that computer that it did not like an update so I uninstalled and reinstalled flash player. I made sure the Adobe page showing the Flash Player was reinstalled correctly came up, then closed all my browser pages, then reopened to make sure not permission spot popped up to ok for future use.
Let me know if this helps. If not, share your computer and browser type.

I've downloaded Itunes, but my computer says that the app won't run on my PC. What do I do?
I just recently got a new laptop with Windows 8. However after I downloaded Itunes I clicked on the program and I get a message that says that the app can not run on this PC. I've tried running the troubleshoot compadibility multiple times and it still does not work. I've tried downloading the newest version and the one before that, and neither are working. What do I do?
I get an error message saying that this app can't run on my pc and that I need to find a version that will work through my administrator.
That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer? -
I'm running logic pro 8.0.2 on Leopard 10.5.8. I've recorded an evening of live music, then cut the recording into songs using one audio file folder ad multiple song files. When working on an individual song, I can't access the sampler. I get the message "nothing to display" or "no region or audio file selected" After much research on the web, I believe this is a permanent bug. Does anyone have a good work-around for this type of work. We record live 16T band rehearsals constantly and would love to be able to break individual songs out of the large file and be able to use the sampler. Thanks in advance for your ideas! Cheers.
Another thing - if I copy one of the tracks to another track, then the sample editor works on the copied track. I don't want to have to copy 16 tracks to new tracks to be able to use the sample editor on a project. Thanks again.

My ipod won't sync to my computer, it says there is a duplicate file name.

In the evening when I put my mac air to sleep and turn it on in the morning it says it had a problem shutting down and had to restart again, so all my work is gone, and this is happening quite often now and I bought it in January. So shouldn't I use the sleep mode over night is that too long and causes it to crash? Or should I take it to a apple store for them to check it out?
Overnight isn't too long for sleep mode. I do it all of the time with no problem. However, I save everything first so I would not have the "all my work is gone" issue even if there was a problem. I would have it checked out.

I purchased a new IPOD and my when I plug it in my computer says that it can not be identified.
In the past when I have plugged in a new ipod a screen will pop up and ask me to register it.
Why is this not happening?Never mind, got it to work. I stumbled around on Google for a while and somehow ended up reading things from the 'jailbroken' community. They had easy instructions to get out of Recovery mode. Thanks anyway though!
P.S. For anyone who experiences this, here is the fix: Hold Power and Home in unison for 6 seconds, then power on as normal. -
my ipod will not update. I have plugged it into itunes and authorizing the computer but, it still says that all of the purchased product has not been transfered. It keeps telling me to authorize the computer which I have done. The purchased items were purchased using an $10 gift card, would that have anything to do with it?
Thanks,We won't know until you try the procedure. The reset will not affect the content of the iPod.

How do I fix this??
Hi. I'm new to the iPhone, but I have had iPods for 5 years or so. I don't know if it works the same, but here's what I know from my iPod experience.
Each iPod is associated with a particular iTunes account. If you plug your device into your computer, it should see your iTunes account and do what ever you have set your iTunes to do when it sees your device (mine is set to sync automatically). If you plug into a different computer, it asks if you want to sync to that iTunes, and if you say yes, it will replace your content with what is in the other iTunes account.
Still, you say it was your own computer that did this to you, so I'm a bit stumped. It sounds like when you had the iPhone 4 you had different content than when you got your iPhone 5. What was the difference? Songs, contacts, photos, apps, etc.? Do you still have the content of your iPhone 5 on your computer? I have only managed my iPhone with my computer, with the exception of downloading a few apps directly, but those apps get placed on my computer when I sync, so I was under the impression that other things that go directly to your phone would also sync, but maybe that's wrong on my part.
You might want to open iTunes on your computer and go to Store>View My Account to make sure you have the correct log-in. Could it be that you made a new Apple ID with the new phone, and your computer is still logged in with your old one?
Please post back if you find a solution, or if you have any new info. -
When syncing iTunes reports "The iPod “name” cannot be synced. A duplicate file name was specified. ". The music is updated but all the sleeve imagery is not including deleting the existing images. How do I solve please?
Hello WGT52,
It sounds like this error message is preventing you from syncing your content to the iPod. I would recommend the troubleshooting steps in the following article:
iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
