My iPod touch 2nd generation does not sync my contacts. I only have iCloud contacts in my address book. How can i sync that?

I do not fully understand you question. To use iCloud on an iOS device requires iOS 5 and the 2G only goes to iOS 4.1.2 and thysyu can't access iCloud, including contacts.
Maybe you could sync the iCloud contacts with anopther program and sync that program with the 2G iPod.
The following smple states the following for Contacts:
iCloud: What if my device or computer doesn't meet iCloud system requirements?
Contacts
If you want to check your iCloud Contacts, you can do so by visiting icloud.com from a Mac or PC (as long as it meets the browser system requirements for icloud.com).

Ipod Touch 3rd Generation does not get to start-up screen

Help!
my ipod touch 3rd generation will not load the start-up screen but follows a cycle, connecting to the USB port of a computer the ipod shows Battery Low
Indication; after about 3 minutes of charging the Apple logo appears and remains for approximately 3-5 minutes before the ipod turns off, and this cycles with
battery charge.
The ipod cannot be reset, and when connected to a computer running iTunes the ipod is not recognised, leaving me unable to follow the restoration or recovery
instructions found on this site.
Does anyone have an idea what could be wrong and a potential solution to the problem?

See if this program will get the iPod i recovery mode:

Next see if DFU mode will let iTunes see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.

HT1481 ipod shuffle 2nd generation, does not show up in window when plugged into itunes. Also, does not charge(no light comes on).

I have a ipod shuffle (2nd generation) that won't light up when plugged in to the power adapter. I have only used it a few times since I purchased it years ago. Also, when I plug it into my computer with itunes running, it isn't recognized at all, as in nothing happens when I plug the usb cable with ipod attached and on to it. Any help would be much appreciated.

but there is another unspecified error.
What is that error?
Are you sure she has a Shuffle? You mentioned a Sad Face.. that would indicate that the iPod has a display, which a Shuffle does not.

IPod touch 5th generation does not recharge

My new iPod touch 5th generation, using iOS 6.0.1, is just over 1 month old and today it will not recharge anymore.
When I plug teh iPod into an outlet to recharge it no longer makes the "connection" sound and the battery icon does not change to the lightening bolt.
When the iPod is OFF and then plugged in, iPod turns on, but makes no sound and the battery icon does not change to the lightening bolt.
Also, NOW, when I plug it into my MacBook, a window appeara that says the USB has been disabled because a device was drawing too much power.
When I plug my iPod 4th generation (also using iOS 6.0.1) into my MacBook, there is no problem with the USB or charging with the same adapter.
The few hours before now . . . when plugged in to recharge . . .
sometimes iPod made the sound as I unplugged it, but it had not charged
sometimes iPod made the sound the moment it was plugged in and the lightening bolt appeared, but only for a second, then lightening bolt disappeared.
sometimes iPod made the sound and showed the lightening bolt and started to recharge, but then made the sound, lightening bolt disappeared, and iPod stopped recharging (without any contact to iPod during the recharge)
sometimes iPod made the sound, showed the lightening bolt, and started to recharge,but then during the charge it would make the sound a few times, but when I checked iPod was still recharging, or had finished the charge to 100% (also without any contact to iPod during the recharge)
Any advice???

Thanks IIIaass,
I got your message just after returning home from an Apple Reseller / authorized Apple service provider (Taiwan has NO Apple stores, and only resellers and authorized Apple service providers which have a wide range of levels of customer service, most well below USA Apple standards).
It did turn out that my "Lightening cable" was defective . . . I also had found many others have this problem through searching online . . . it seems strange that I could not find this information through the Apple website, trouble shooting, or community discussions.
Anyhow, of course, since I was not at an official Apple Store or dealing with an Apple service employee, they were not happy to help me, and they did not want to give me a new "Lightening cord" for my 40-day old iPod with AppleCare. Eventually they decided to replace my cord, but it was not a pleasant experience.
I don't know why there is no Apple store in Taiwan . . . there are Apple resellers everywhere and the producta are very popular here.
Again, thanks for the information and the interesting article about the "Lightening cables".

Ipod touch 3rd generation does not sync with itunes 12

I upgraded iTunes to iTunes 12 and now my 3rd generation 64GB iPod Touch does not sync but 8 songs, even though the entire library is checked. I had removed all songs to reorganize the iPod but afterwards I was no longer able to re-sync the iPod Touch. A restore from previous was pointless because all the songs had already been removed. I ended up restoring the iPod Touch to factory settings and I still cannot sync any songs.

Do the non-syncing songs play in iTunes on the computer?

IPod Touch (2nd gen) - Does not work with Component AV Cable

I have a 2nd generation iPod Touch. Today I bought the component AV cable at the Apple store (along with a universal dock). Connected it correctly to the TV and:
1. No picture (screen is blue, as though nothing connected); no sound (whether video or music)
2. Whatever video is playing on the actual iPod gets stuck - as though it is on "pause", with the difference that you can push "play" and "pause" and the only thing that does is change the "play" or "pause" icon from one to the other or vice-versa--video will not actually play
3. Setting Widescreen to "on" or "off" has no effect
4. Tried connecting it to an old iPod Nano (2nd gen I think) - also no sound.
Please advise!

Alex_K
Try changeing your TV out setting, found in the (Settings) of your ipod. Following Paragraph found in the iPod User manual (Page 98): http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodtouch
"Use these settings to set up how iPod touch plays videos on your TV. For more
information about using iPod touch to play videos on your TV, see “Watching Videos
on a TV” on page 39.
Turn widescreen on or off: Choose Video and turn Widescreen on or off.
Set TV signal to NTSC or PAL: Choose Video > TV Signal and select NTSC or PAL.
NTSC and PAL are TV broadcast standards. iPod touch displays NTSC 480p/PAL 576p
when attached to a TV using a component cable, or NTSC 480i/PAL 576i using a
composite cable. Your TV might use either of these, depending on where you bought
it. If you’re not sure which to use, check the documentation that came with your TV. "
Hope that helps,

HT1238 ipod shuffle 2nd generation does not appear in Reset Utility window.

Hi there! I'm seeking some advice for repairing an old ipod shuffle.
My mom's 2nd generation iPod shuffle suddenly will not appear on her computer. She is using windows vista (sad face). I ran all the reccommeded troubleshooting suggestions, but still can't repair the disk.
When connected to the original computer (windows vista), the charging light comes on but the disk does not appear anywhere on the computer. I ran the diagnostics and it apparently has the most updated software, but there is another unspecified error.
When I tried to run the repair suggestions on my own computer, i can't get the disk to show anywhere....the charging light will not even come on.
Any other suggestions I might have overlooked?

but there is another unspecified error.
What is that error?
Are you sure she has a Shuffle? You mentioned a Sad Face.. that would indicate that the iPod has a display, which a Shuffle does not.

IPod touch 2nd generation will not turn on at all... Help, please!

Our iPod will not turn on at all. Any suggestions on what we should try?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
