My ipod touch keeps removing my songs and videos. What do i do.

Im getting sick and tired of this. Yesterday morning my ipod deleted all my songs NOT bought by itunes. It also deleted my video, 8mile, which i did buy off of itunes. So last night i plugged it into my computer, and it was fine that night. All the songs i had thougt were erased and the video 8mile were restored. Let me just add in that the songs that were not bought by itunes were put on my ipod on a different computer. So anyway, last night everything went back to normal. So as i get to school today, i hit the play button, and the music keeps spazzing out and pausing then playing, pausing and playing. Then when i look in my library, again, ALL the songs that were not bought by itunes were erased. And again, my movie 8 mile was deleted. But note that i have music videos on there, but they did not delete.
I dont have much time in my day to fix this, so if someone can help me i would very much appreciate it. Also note that i am posting this o the same ipod touch.

It appears that you are syncing your iPod to two different computers/iTunes libraries..  You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library.  If you synced with one computer and then syned to another computer, the iPod would be erased and its contents replaced with the contents in the iTunes library of the second computer.
Solution is to only sync with one computer.  However, yu can manage music with different computers.  See:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers

  • IPod touch 5th generation skips songs and stuck on sync

    I just bought a brand new ipod touch 5th generation today after my little over a year old 4th gen had an issue with software affecting the battery.  Now, after syncing my library to the new ipod, and updating to ios 7.0.3, there are songs being skipped and when I try to sync, it gets stuck on "waiting for changes to be applied."
    I am so upset because I spent so much money to replace one faulty product with another. 
    Does anyone have any information on how to fix this problem?

  • My ipod touch keeps flashing the logo and will not turn on nor does the computer recognizes it.

    I downloaded Cydia a couple of days ago, now my Ipod touch keeps flashing the apple logo.

    Try the remaining items here:

    If not successful and you can't turn the iPod completely off let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least of hour try again.
    If still not successful then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My 5th Generation IPod Touch keeps pausing, opening Siri, and crashing when I play music?

    I won a brand new 64gb 5th gen iPod touch back in November, everything has been great with it until recently. Lately it has been glitching out whenever I try to play music. It seems to be only when the headphone are plugged in that it does it, but it happens daily and has become an inconvenience. It tends to pause, play, open Siri (ask her a question) sometimes speed up the song, and ultimately crash. Does anyone know of this and/or know how to fix it? I've tried a system restore with backing up info but nothing else. Thank you.

    Hope your issue was fixed. With iOS 7 and now 7.0.4 the iPod touch fifth generation I have still crashes I have don't a soft restore, a complete restore from back up and also setup as new. Nothing worked. Saw the folks at the apple store on five different times. So they finally gave me a replacement. This has been going on since the new release. The only thing I have found is that it looses internet connectivity so I can put it in airplane mode. Close all apps. Then go back to wifi mode and some times this worked.
    Your issues seem slightly different. But the irregularities began for me with issues with my music library on my iPod touch.
    It's so frustrating to have such an expensive device functioning so poorly.

  • Why does my iPod Touch keep changing the date and year?

    Whenever I charge my iPod Touch after it completely dies, Safari never loads whatever site I'm trying to go on and the date always goes to Thursday, January 1st, 1970. I noticed the time always changes as well. i.e. it's 10:47am now and the time on the iPod says 5:35am. I don't know how or why it keeps doing this. I didn't mind it the first 2 times, but this keeps happening everytime I turn it on. Does anyone else's do this??

    Hi eskimoerin,
    reset & software update could fix the problem.
    Don't forget to backup your data from iPod.

  • My 2g iPod touch keeps on turning on and off.

    It keeps on turning on and off. I have updated it and all the apps to the latest version. I tried restoring it by using iTunes but it keeps turning off when I connect it to the computer.

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the iPod... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the iPod On...

  • IPod Touch locking up on Music and Video screen

    I have an 8GB iPod Touch (version 1.1.4) that recently will not display songs or video items stored on the iTouch. iTunes (7.6.1.9) shows that the iTouch has music libraries installed and currently using 1.4GB for Audio files but everytime I press the "Music" button on the iPod the music list window displays as a White background and effectively locks up the iPod until I restart the Power.
    I have Reset the iTouch, I have Re-Synced the music lists and neither helped.
    Any ideas?

    I had the same trouble with the ipod freezing up, then restarting on its own, then all my music was gone and none of the apps would run. I am currently syncing the ipod touch back with the pc to restore the music. I removed the app I was using when this happened (FlyTunes).
    I have the 2.0.1 firmware installed and will let you know what happens.

  • New iPod touch won't play songs or videos from iTunes!

    Hello,
    I purchased a 64gb iPod touch for my niece for Christmas.  We set it up and synced her library this afternoon.  None of the songs synced from iTunes will play (cover art appears but the song never plays - we have tried pressing pause and restarting, etc.).  Also, the iPod says it "cannot open" the movie we synced.  It will play one song that we purchased from the store using wifi (and will play that song instead of playing some of the other synced songs if you try to play them now). 
    We have restored twice (once from a PC, once from a mac).  The same issue recurs each time. 
    This is turning out to be a huge disappointment for her, so any suggestions will be appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • I have a 16gb ipod touch 4th generation, 733 songs and 5 apps, yet it says it is over capacity and will not sync. however i know people with 8gb ipods and 1000s of songs? help please!

    just says my ipod is over capacity when it's a 16gb ipod so it obviously isn't, can someone help!

    How many songs depends upon the format of the some. Some are not compressed at al and they take up a lot of storage.
    In the Summary pane for the iPod in iTunes you can compress songs that are synced to the iPod. Check the box that says Convert higher bitrate songs to XX kpps ACC. An XX or 128 is a good compromise of quality and compression.
    Also,
    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.

  • Why does my ipod touch keep making weird noise when i plug in my headphone and when i put music it sound fuzy

    The other day when I was on my iPod touch (8 GB) I put on music but then something when wrong. When I plug in my headphone and put music on, it sounded like I was hearing music under water, and it sounded fuzy and weird. Then I unplug the headphone from my iPod touch (8 GB) and I got my computer and plug in my headphone and put music, and it sounded fine. What should I do about this?
