My Ipod touch wont connect to itunes now. I updated my ipod and ever since then it wont connect to itunes. It gives me some sort of error.

So then I hold the power and home button at the time time to restart it. And itunes now tells me I need to update and restore my ipod to sync music again. So either I have the ipod connected to itunes and cant sync..or I update the ipod and cant connect it to itunes...HELP!!

Hello,
If you have the latest version of iTunes, and nothing else is working, maybe putting the device into recovery mode will help.
To put the device into recovery mode:

After you've done this, you should be able to restore your device. This will remove your data.

  • I recently uploaded OSX 10.6.7 and ever since then, my Boris titler in FCP does not work with all the fonts, notably Avenir. It actually crashes FCP now. It was fine with the previous version. What's up Apple?

    I know what your'e going through, Gary.   OSX 10.6.7 is an absolute disaster.   Since I upgraded, I've had problems in FCP, Logic, Garageband, even issue dealing with peripheral hardware like external monitors.
    Before 10.6.7 my system was running fine.
    I've brought this up with Apple repeatedly.   They smile and shrug.   They've been helpful resolving the issues, but none of them has been easy to solve.  I have spent days, dealing back and forth with tech support, sending logs, etc., before solutions have been found.  
    I wish I could give you an answer to your question.   My only guess is that Apple has totally dropped the ball on this one.   In the future they should provide a disclaimer when they offer an upgrade.  Something like:   "Caution: all of your software may not function after this upgrade. But go ahead, you'll feel cool that your OS is the latest thing."
    As someone who has been with Apple for close to 25 years, I'm disturbed by what appears to be an increasing sloppiness in their work.   This is especially disturbing when you depend upon their system to make your living.
    Good luck.

  • I reset andsold my ipod touch 5, new buyer is now wanting my apple login and passcode! Says he cant get to the nex step without it.

    Reset touch 5 to where it was asking, for country, language, etc.  He calls me and wants my login and password! I am thinking this is not right.  He says he cannot get to next screen without it.

    This did not work apparently.  He says the ipod touch (which I had reset to orignal settings, clear back to entering the country, language) wont let him put his apple id in. It says to enter the id that ipod was set up with. He gave me the first letter of the email that it shows on the ipod, which is correct to the email that it was set up with.. (and not any email he knows). You know how it shows [email protected]  SO now what.  He said when he puts his in, it just keeps saying that. That it is not the id that the ipod was set up with.

  • ITunes is not updating file names and locations since upgrading to 10.2.2.12

    It saves the changes I make to the metadata, but the filenames themselves and the actual locations of the files are not changing.
    Good example of this is changing a video file from Movie to TV Show. It does change the location within iTunes, but the file itself remains in the Movies folder, right where it was before.
    This was working perfectly before upgrading earlier this morning to version 10.2.2.12.
    I have double-checked and iTunes is still set to organize my library for me.
    Any help would be appreciated, even if it's just to let me know that it's a known issue with this new version.
    I am running Windows 7 (64 bit).

         If you organize your iTunes media folder yourself, DO NOT DO WHAT JonSS DID!.   It will move all your files to folders with the artists name on them instead of by album.  It fixed the video podcasts (and apparent other kinds of video files -  I haven't checked yet) being sent to their respective folders but totally borked my music file system.
          This is fine for me and my iPod Touch, but, my wife has a non-Apple mp3 player and she likes to find music by artist+album. Now all the Compilation Albums are in multiple folders (i.e. The Animal House Sndtrk is not in one folder but in 11 different artist folders in the main Media folder).
          This has happened in the past and I hope some overworked and undereducated (maybe overeducated and underworked is correct?) coder is feverishly trying to fix this. 
         I recommend a reinstall of 10.2.1 to keep control of your library yourself and have the newly downloaded video files assigned to their proper folders.  (btw, if your looking for your recently d/l'd video Podcasts, they are in the Downloads folder as psuedo tmp.mp4 files).  This seems to be a problem with just the video files.  I don't use iTunes to watch my video files. I either watch them on my Touch or on Windows Media Center on my HTPC. So having each show/podcast in it's respective folder is important to keep track of them.
    Luckily, I recently backed up my iTunes Media Folder for a re-install and will use it when I reinstall 10.2.1 (I have approximately 16,000 music files from my CD collection, OS-level organization is quite important)
    Fix one thing...break 3 other things...ahh, the life of a "cut & paste" coder...I knew it well...
    Now I have to find a different RSS-based video Podcast downloader...any suggestions?

  • My iPod touch is stuck. I chose to update one app, and now it displays "waiting" on many apps, with no movement.

    My iPod touch is stuck in update mode.

    You ONLY updated one app? If you do a bunch at the same time, it will say 'waiting' and only update one or two at a time until are are updated. I would just turn if off and on, then reconnect to wifi, and go to the App Store and retry updating.

    3. A dialog box will appear.
    4. Select the firmware you downloaded and click ok.
    5. Done!!! Your iPhone will now be restored to 5.1.1 and if you had backed up your iPod before, then you can put all its settings afterwards.

  • Our old computer crashed which had all the kids ipod touch library on it. Now when I connect ipods to new computer it says I have to erase all the app, etc to sync with new computer. Is there anyway to sync to the new computer w/out losing all data?

    Our old computer crashed which had all the kids ipod touch library on it. Now when I try to connect them to new computer it says I need to erase all data, apps, etc. to sync with new computer. It is saying that it can only be connected to one library at a time. Is their anyway around this without having ot erase all their stuff?

    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
