  • IPod will not play any music. Seems like it is in "Pause" mode.  No sound from either the head phones or internal speaker.  I have 418 songs stored and none will play.

    iPod will not play any music. Seems like it is in “Pause” mode.  No sound from either the head phones or internal speaker.  I have 418 songs stored and none will play. I have tried resetting, turning on and off the iPod, etc. but to no avail.

    Try restoring from backup. Next would be a restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Itunes will not play my music nor videos

    I recently updated to itunes about a week ago..and for some odd reason my itunes will not play any music that is located in the itunes music library.. I un-installed it, then re-installed it..and it still did not play the music.. I believe it has affected my windows media player on my computer as well. I was wondering if anyone had any information or a solution to my problem??
    thanks

    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Ipod will not play itunes music store purchased music

    I know this topic has been discussed here before, but i still have yet to find a valid answer, so i figured i'd start another thread to see if anyone has found a solution yet. sorry for the repeat subject.
    I have a 30GB ipod (with the 4 buttons above the scroll wheel) which suddenly will not play music which has been purchased from the itunes music store. everything which was imported from CDs plays fine. the songs in question play fine through itunes - both from my library on my G5, as well as from the ipod, so it does not seem to be an authorization problem. i've reset the ipod numerous times, trashed itunes preferences, updated to the latest version of itunes, and updated the ipod itself to the latest software version... all to no avail. when i select an itunes purchased album on the ipod, it simply cycles through, song by song, without playing anything.
    I haven't restored the ipod to the factory settings yet, as i would like to avoid doing so because i will loose some music which i previously only had on a now dead ibook (faulty logic board). besides, i know from reading old posts, other people with the same problem have tried this as well, to no avail.
    can anyone offer any other help/advice on how to remedy this problem? thanks in advance.

    It appears that some songs in the iTunes store that were added to the store since the end of November will not play on 1st generation shuffles. They transfer to the shuffle fine but will not play. These same songs transfer to other iPods and play just fine. Many people are having these problems (see the Apple discussion boards). The only known solution is to burn the tracks to a cd and re-import them into your library (a royal pain in the butt). And, yes, I have tried all of Apple's recommendations and even went through troubleshooting with tech support over the phone. I was told they'd call me in a few days after speaking with their engineers but never heard back from them.
    PLEASE contact apple either by the following link:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/ipod/
    OR by calling the support number:
    1-800-275-2273
    Hopefully, with enough complaints, Apple will be forced to correct the problem. It seems to me (and quite a few other people) that something changed on the encryption/the way they are encoding new music in the store that has made the music incompatible with our shuffles.

  • Itunes says sofware too old on Ipod, will not sync perchased music or video

    Hello
    Well after battling this issue for two years since I purchased my 5th gen ipod here is where I stand. MY ipod does have ver 1.2.1 software installed on the unit. this was done on a friends computer with no problem, in fact my ipod seems to be working just fine, just not with my computer in the studio. I have the latest itunes update in stalled on the computer 7.2, But everytime I try and sync My ipod the message appears that "some file were not transferred because the software on my ipod is too old" SO does anyone out there have any suggestions on how to solve this problem that appears to be computer related? My ipod appears to work properly in all other matters: it shows up on the desktop, in itunes, I can drag files to and it will synce any music in itune that was taken from a CD originally. My system is 10.3.9, 1.5 gig ram, G4 dual processor 1.25 Mhz, dual boot with 9.2.2 and the OS 10.3.9.
    I have tried trashing itunes and reinstalling itunes but not change has occured. Any one have a more complete way of getting rid of every ipod and itunes related file and drivers?
    thanks

    I appreciate the suggestion but these efforts I have done over and over again and there is no change in the behavior between My ipod and my computer. My ipod will function just fine on a neighboors machine; so I am leaning towards trying to resolve the software issue on my MAC g4 itself.
    thanks

  • HELP - No sound and will not play any music or videos

    Hi All,
    I'm really hoping someone can help me. I have an Apple iPod 2g 16gb.
    I am having real problems with the sound not working when I upgrade the firmware. If I update to the new 4.1, the internal speaker stops working completely and that's not all...
    If I try to play a song, it basically loads the PLAYING screen (with the two arrows and PLAY button in the middle at the bottom) then appears to immediately stop the song and go back to the track list screen.
    Also... whenever I try playing any videos on the youtube app, it keeps saying video cannot be played...
    Now, if I downgrade to Firmware version 2.1.1 sounds works, videos work and music plays!
    I have tried all the Restore option and Reset all settings solution and nothing seems to work. I have been researching like mad on the Internet and have found a couple of posts with similar problesm so I know it isn't just me but does anyone have any ideas at all because, had I any, I'd have ripped all my hair out by now!!!
    iPod Touch 2G 16GB 4.1 Windows XP Pro

    If it works fine with the older FW, I would leave it alone. iOS 4.1 has its share of problems. Battery life is one big issue.

  • My daughters Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today.  We have updated, restored etc and will not play any music as in no sound coming from it. It is almost fully charged and played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

    My Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today.  We have updated, restored etc and now it will not play any music - as in no sound coming from it.  It looks as if it is playing, but no sound comes out. It played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

    So, here is an update to my original question, in case anyone else has this issue. I spoke with a senior adviser at apple, who had me use the "devmgmt.msc" command in the search line of Windows 7; after expanding the USB controllers menu, she had me uninstall/delete the "apple mobile device driver" and then open "control panel" and "uninstall programs." Once the menu of programs was open, she had me highlight the program "apple mobile device controller", then repair it, and restart the computer. This fixed the issue and the iPod synced.
    However, just one day ago, when I plugged in both the iPod, then the iPad (not at the same time), I get the message that "this library has already been synced to another iPod/iPad or other IOS device." It then asked if I wanted to set up as a new device or from restore of previous. That is wher I am right now; I am trying to get the same apple adviser again to discuss the case number. More to follow.

  • My ipod will not put all music by the same artist together

    Do the un-syncing ones play in iTunes?
    Try directly redownloading them on the iPod

  • Ipod will not play anything purchased from itunes!!!

    My ipod will not play anying thing purchased from itunes. It plays ok on itunes but it skips it on my ipod. I have restored my ipod athoritized my computer and I cant find any answers in help. Please help me!!!

    See this article.
    iPod does not play content purchased from the iTMS.
    If you have made sure that both the iTunes and iPod software are current and have deauthorized and reauthorized your computer, try this test:
    1. Deauthorize the computer.
    2. Create a new user in the system.
    3. Download the free song of the week from the iTMS in the new user account.
    4. Play the song in that user account to authorize again.
    5. Restore the iPod (using the iPod updater) in the new user account.
    6. Sync just the free song of the week and see if it plays on the iPod.
    If it does, you appear to have a corrupted iTunes library file, and you should recreate the iTunes library file in your normal user account, and then sync your music back to the iPod and all should be well.

  • My iphone will not play the music i have downloaded. can you help?

    My iphone will not play the music I purchased and downloaded. Can you help?

    That may be a problem related to network settings on your computer, or on the router that you use for connecting to the Internet.  Take a look at this article for a possible solution
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    Since this actually a problem with using iTunes, and not directly related to an iPod (or an iPad), you may also want to ask your question in the appropriate iTunes forum category
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
    The specific problem is that you cannot connect to the iTunes Store when using the iTunes app, even through your computer has Internet access.

    If you can’t install iTunes on your Windows PC, or if you see “error 7” or “error 2” after you install the software, follow the steps below in order.

    Make sure that you're logged in to your computer as an administrator.

    Remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows XP.
    Remove and reinstall iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8.
