My ipod syncs but when disconnected wont show music?

When I connect the ipod it'll come up as "scan or fix disc" and i've fixed it for both the file errors and the recovery of bad sectors thingy in that window that pops up, and I've restored it several times in itunes. At first it would sync certain songs then it would get to a random song and say that the file was bad. So I tried syncing without those songs and it showed that it synced the memory even showed they were on the ipod, but then when I ejected the ipod it showed no music. Also, now everytime I plug the ipod in, itunes immediately stops responding. pleassseee help.

- WIth theiPod connected to your computer click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is shown used in the Music category and how muchin "other".
- Try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod and then syncing.

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
If so have you done anything like update iTunes on the computer since it last successfully synced?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Does any media now sync to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Try syncing using the manual method

Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs? (iTunes purchases only)

Hi, I just recently burned one of my personal CD's onto my itunes so I could sync it to my ipod touch.

Ipod "Syncs" but doesn't add new music

My ipod has always worked perfectly fine with my computer and itunes. Yesterday I added a new mixCD to my itunes and tried to sync it with my ipod. My ipod shows up in the sidebar, and goes through a "sync" process, but hasn't added the new music.
Additionally I tested my ipod's syncing abilities by changing the name of a song on my itunes. This song is already on my ipod touch, so if it synced properly, the name should change. I hit "sync" but name did not change and my new music remained missing on my ipod.
Does anyone have any idea what this problem might be? I feel like it's probably something very minor I'm just not understanding.
PS I have a second gen Ipod touch, but have yet to update it, could this be the problem?

See if your Touch is set for "Manually manage music and video" (connect ot iTunes, look at the iPod's summary page). If so, then any changes you make in iTunes will not sync to the Touch -- that includes new music you add to iTunes, and changes you make to your library. If your iPod is in manual mode then you need to manually add new music, and if you change your library in any way you need to manually add the updated song(s) and delete the original version(s) on your Touch.
If you don't want your iPod in manual mode, un-check the "Manually manage music and video" option in iTunes and click the Apply button. You will then be able to synchronize your Touch to iTunes.

When Ipod is connected to Itunes all music can be seen, but when disconnected, the ipod appears as if there is no music. Hasn't happened to the movies. Help?

ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them. I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music. I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5... never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

Try:
- 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.
- Unsync/delete all AB and resync
To delete all ADgo to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage Storage>AB and try deleting them from there
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT1349 My Ipod mini syncs, but when I go to play, no sound. I've tried multiple speakers and headphones. No Go. What next?

My Ipod mini syncs, but when I go to play, no sound. I've tried multiple speakers and headphones. No Go. What next?
My latest problem is that the Apple site will not recognize my equipment by it's serial number. I know the mini is old, but I like what it did for me and don't necessarily want to "upgrade".

This is the iPad in the Enterprise forum. You'll be more likely to get help with your issue if you ask in the appropriate iPod forum.

I just bought the new ipod touch, but when I try to sync it I get told to use the cloud and download from there. How do I sync it to my itunes so that I get all my songs without going through cloud? Otherwise if this isn't possible I am taking this back!

My ipod say its syncing but when I check my ipod nothing has transferred

I'm trying to sync the songs I've purchased on my computer to my ipod. I click sync and it says its syncing and that it has synced, but when I look for the new songs they have'nt transferred to my ipod. What's going on, or how do I fix this? I tried resetting my ipod, but that didn't work.

Have you tried deleting the account and re-installing?

My ipod (nano, 6th generation) won't sync to a new computer with different stuff on it. It *appears* to sync but when it's done it still has the stuff from the other computer on it. What to do?

My ipod (nano, 6th generation) won't sync to a new computer with different stuff on it. Itunes on the new computer doesn't give the usual warning that you are about to lose all your existing stuff and the ipod *appears* to sync but when it's done it still has the stuff from the other computer on it. What to do?

I have an iPod touch but when I tried syncing, it said apps cannot be determined.

I have an iPod touch but when I tried syncing, it said apps cannot be determined. What do i do?

Many developers when they updated their apps fro the newer iOSs dropped support for the older iOSs. That included Skype and other developers. Unless you have a copy of the apps version that was compatible with your iPod/iOS you are out of luck. Do you cave such a copy in a computer file backup??

When I plug my shuffle into my PC it says in ITunes that it is syncing, but when I safely disconnect and plug in my ear phones the shuffles tells me to download music from iTunes and there is no music on it.

When I plug my shuffle into my PC it says in iTunes that it is syncing, but when I safely disconnect it from the PC and plug my earphones into my shuffle it says I need to sync music from iTunes. What should I be doing differently?

Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Type "move itunes library from pc to mac" or similar into the google search bar.
