My ipod is perfect but itunes is now messed up after I installed a program.

How can I get my itunes to have the exact same data as my ipod?
I spent a lot of time making album names, album covers etc.. and after downloading a new program my itunes looks as if it's about a year old!
Thanks,

When you plug in your iPod, go to Preferences > iPod and check the box so it "Automatically Updates All Songs" or along those lines.

    Is this particular car stereo stated as being compatible with your iPod Mini?  If you aren't sure, check the manufacturer's support site or give the car stereo manufacturer a call.

    I updated iTunes on my Dell Inspiron lap top and it corrupted my iTunes. I uninstalled all of the newly installed files.  I also uninstalled iTunes.  Now whenever I try to install iTunes, I get a message that says, "An Apple Application support is required to run iTunes on this computer. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again."
    Tried it 2 times and no luck.  Any advice for me?

    I get a message that says, "An Apple Application support is required to run iTunes on this computer. Please uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again."
    With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    It's not that you can't format it because you have no backup, it's because you'll lose everything when you do. Lesson learned. Always have a backup.

    An older iTunes will not open the library once used by a newer version.
    iTunes 10.6.3 will work with iOS6 as long as the hardware doesn't post-date the release of 10.7  Use iTunes 10.6.3 on both machines.

  • Computer says iPod is there, but iTunes and Windows won't recognize it

    I've had a 60GB ipod photo for about 4 years and it has served me well. This morning the iPod froze in the middle of a song. I hit reset, and it came back blank - all the files were gone. When I got to work and hooked it up to my computer, iTunes and Windows can't recognize it, but I can find it in device manager - which means I couldn't do restore.
    I hit reset a few more times, changed USB ports and, somewhat miraculously, the iPod came back, complete with all files. On the way home from work it happened again and I haven't been so lucky.
    I forced it into disk mode and iTunes recognized it, but told me it was corrupt. I also received a computer sound card error - my sound card was busy, and an error stating that audio/video playback could be limited. I tried restore, but I received the unknown error. I'm using the latest version of iTunes and I'm all out of ideas.
    Any suggestions or should I put this iPod to rest and save up to buy a new one?
    Thanks

    The most likely problem is that the hard drive in the iPod is becoming unreliable. It may be experiencing sticktion, which is friction that makes the spinning platter stick and the motor cannot get it spinning. The iPod is regularly spinning the hard drive up, to cache songs into memory, and then spinning it down, to save power. If the drive was not able to spin up when commanded (in the middle of a song), the iPod would seem to lock up. Later, bumping the iPod may make the hard drive spin again, so it seems to work again, at least for a while.
    If this the the problem, the only way to fix it would be to replace the hard drive inside.
    You might try reformatting the iPod using Windows, if you can get it to appear in a My Computer or Windows Explorer window. Use a full format instead of a quick format. If that process competes successfully, run iTunes and try using Restore again to install and initialize the iPod's software.
    If formatting does not compete successfully, it may be time for that new iPod.
    You can do some experimenting on the old iPod, if you're into such things. I have successfully installed a compact flash card (through an adapter), inside a 4th gen iPod as a replacement for the hard drive. It is only 4GB at the moment, but CF cards up to 16GB are getting relatively cheap, so I might get one of those and start using by old broken 4G iPod again, +now with shock-resistant energy-saving flash-based storage+.

  • IPod says "Connected" but iTunes does not recognize

    I plug in my iPod, it says "connected - eject before disconnecting", but iTunes does not show ANYTHING saying it recognizes or sees my iPod... Anyone know what I need to do? I restarted iTunes already and reconnected my iPod, not working...

    Try resetting your iPod. This is probably different for different generations of iPod, but you can find the correct procedure in your manual. For mine, I first must flip the "hold" button on the bottom of the iPod to red and then to normal. Then press and hold the center of the click wheel and the top (menu side) of the click wheel simultaneously for 10 seconds. When I release the unit rests. It takes a minute or so. Then connect the iPod and iTunes will find it. If it still doesn't work properly try selecting "Restore" on iTunes while the iPod is connected.

    Hey Debbiered1,
    Follow the steps in this link to resolve the issue:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    When you uninstall, the items you uninstall and the order in which you do so are particularly important:
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    Let us know if following that article and uninstalling those components in that order helped the situation.
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
    Take care,

  • ITunes no longer displays CDs after latest install

    I've seen similar older questions, but  I haven't seen an answer that works yet.
    I Just installed latest iTunes SW (12.1.x?) on 2/28/15.  Now iTunes does not display (or ask to display/import) a CD when I insert one (or have one inserted).  (My preferences are still set to ask to import a CD when inserted.)  iTunes has the same issue with both of my drives.  Windows Media Player can play CDs from either drive just fine - so its not a problem with the drives.  When I run iTunes diagnostics, iTunes recognizes my drives and gives them both  'green' status... however - they still don't show up in iTunes (when CDs are in them).  iTunes seems to be working fine other than this.  (I'm able to sync to my devices, play songs, etc.)
    There's an articles I found on trying to repair 'missing drives' (iTunes for Windows: Optical drive is no longer recognized, or "Disc burner or software not found" alert after install - …)  And I tried the steps here even though its not exactly the same issue.  (I removed than 'reinstalled' the latest Gear driver; I verified I don't have either of the  afs.sy, afs2k.sys conflicting drivers.)
    I'm running Windows-7 64-bit.
    I have not tried to uninstall/reinstall iTunes... [yet].
    Anyone having the same issue?

    Thank you so much for your responses.  I greatly appreciate it.  I wish Apple was as responsive as you.  I also wish it was easier to find out how to actually file a bug report with them.
    My first PC was back in the 80's.  I made sure to have a 5.25" floppy drive since 3.5" was still new.  It was a fancy PC back then, with the 3.5" on my A: drive and 5.25" on B:....   Styling.  The PC I run iTunes on now is about 4-5 years old, (about 25 years newer than my first one) and has up-to-date BIOS, Windows 7, etc.  I built it myself with whatever was pretty much top-of-the-line at the time.
    I don't doubt that even Windows 7 still has some ancient A;/B: drive issues lurking about.  I was nervous about that when I changed my optical drive letters to use them a month ago.  No other software, including Windows Media Player, had any issue, so there didn't seem to be a problem.  I feel like I'd ripped a CD into iTunes since I changed the drive letters, but I must not have.  Unfortunately I updated iTunes right before trying to import a new CD I just bought, which led me to believe the update was bad... especially after seeing several 'similar' issues from other users who updated to iTunes 12.1.1.4 (including your original comment).  I suppose my bad, for not fully checking out using the old reserved drive letters when I changed them.
    I still consider this an Apple iTunes bug (even though I'm sure there's plenty of blame to share with Windows).  Since ALL my other software is fine with the drive letters there's no reason iTunes - as big as it is - shouldn't also be.  AND there's no reason iTunes shouldn't warn about this when Run Diagnostics is run from iTunes.  Run Diagnostics DOES recognize the A:/B: drives, but does NOT report any error on it.  This would have been no issue at all if their diagnostics software identified that iTunes still has an issue with the historic drive letters instead of just reporting that everything is OK.
    Hopefully Apple browses through these forums.  I 'think' I found a place to report the BUG to them last night, but they don't make it easy to find that through their contact pages that kept bringing me back to the phone number web page.  (Sorry for the rant... I'm just frustrated cause I wasted so much time on this, and even more time on my previous issue with iTunes stealing some music from me that I had purchased and saying i didn't own it any more even though I still have all the receipts... I'm really about to give up Apple completely - I already moved to Amazon for digital downloads due to Apple's music theft.)
    Anyway I'll consider this issue closed when Apple fixes it (either by accepting the old reserved drive letters, or by updating their Run Diagnostics)... in the meantime, I have an easy, though undesirable, workaround in using alternate drive letters.
    Again.  Thank you for your help.  Your responses helped push me to find the real issue and a workaround.  I truly appreciate it.
