My ipod touch(4th gen)no longer syncs to itunes 10.7 via USB

My ipod touch(4th gen)no longer syncs to itunes 10.7 via usb. i knew it didn't work via wifi with the new updates but this is too far. i can't see it in itunes at all anymore. i restarted my ipod already still with no results. the only thing i did is create and delete playlist from the ippd and deleted others from itunes as well. i've done it before but this time i assume it's led to this. any suggestions?

Disregard. It seems i just needed to install an optional update with windows update. either that or just restart my computer instead of my ipod. silly me.

  • My ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes, OSX

    My 8gb ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes. Running itunes 11.4 on OSX 10.6.8
    My touch was running fine until one day I found about 3gb occupied by 'other' space. I ended up restoring my ipod which took care of the problem, but created a new one in that the ipod will no longer sync anything from my itunes library. I have music set up to sync selected artists, and when I click the checkboxes to select my albums and artists to sync, the 'audio' bar fills up.
    When I click 'apply', the 'starting sync' and progress bar pop up for like half a second then disappear. Same goes with photos, apps, podcasts, etc.

    Verify that you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • Ipod Touch 4th Gen will not sync with Itunes 11.1

    I upgraded my Itunes to the latest version, now I can't get Ipod touches to sync that are 4th gen. Any help?

    I FINALLY got it to sync. I had to unplug and restart my computer 3x's then it worked and went like a charm. It was getting to step 2 of 5 in the sync then just freezing. I let it run for 15+ hours the first day.
    I do have to ask though since I have a knowledgable person:

  • IPod Touch 2nd gen no longer syncs with itunes?

    I just recently upgraded to Snow Leopard.
    Now my ipod touch won't sync to itunes. It syncs with iphoto, although I can't put new albums on it. It doesn't allow me to 'sync ipod' in the itunes menu. And it doesn't automatically sync like it used to. I can't even update my ipod to a newer version, because it won't sync.
    I also don't know if I can update to the newer 5.0 system, as this is an older ipod touch. (2nd generation)
    Please help. Do I have to reinstall itunes, etc. to get this to work??

  • Why does my iPod touch (4th Gen) no longer sync with my computer?

    So...
    One day I had downloaded 2 new songs to my iTunes library and I wanted to put them on my iPod so I connected it and it wouldn't sync...
    Both my iPod and iTunes are fully updated.
    I have tried everything such as:
    Restarting my iPod
    Restarting my Computer
    Using a different wire
    Restoring my device
    Manually selecting which music I want
    Deleting all the music and trying to put it back
    Nothing...
    And my music means a lot to me so I'm very distressed.
    This has been going on for about a week now...
    My iPod won't even back up...
    PLEASE HELP. THANKS.

  • HI my ipod touch 4th gen wont start sync with itunes.

    Itunes recognises the ipod but keeps saying sync session failed to start. It starts off as though it is going to sync by saying step 1of 8 but times out after a few minutes without syncing very frustrating. Any ideas would be welcome. I have restored the ipod and re-installed Itunes

    If it stops while trying to backup (step 1 or 2) , try to delete the latest backup in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices. If iTunes can't read the backup, it can't replace it and start the sync process.
    Check this article about the location of the backup folder, you might want to back it up before you delete the backup. iTunes: About iOS backups
