My iPod won't sync on my newly downloaded iTunes after I rebooted my laptop because I got hacked! PLEASE HELP! I cant sync anything and it only comes up with Step 1 of 1 instead of the usual 4 steps
Hello everyone,my names Charlotte and I was wondering if someone could help me with my iPod not syncing to my iTunes properly.
Okay well basically,a while ago my laptop caught a virus and in the end I ended up having to reboot the whole thing.
(My OS is Windows 7 Ultimate)
However,because of this,it meant I had to download iTunes again, and so I did.
(I have the latest iTunes and iPod Touch version downloaded)
Then I found a way how to sync all my music from my iPod touch (not the 4th gen) to my laptop, so I did and put all my music and more (from albums I haven't downloaded yet e.t.c) onto my newly downloaded iTunes.
But anyway,back to the original topic. Because of downloading iTunes again and rebooting my laptop, my iPod Touch wont sync to my new iTunes and I don't know what I can do to fix this?
Another thing I did notice was on the 'Devices' option on the sidebar, it now says 'iPod Touch', instead of 'Charlotte's iPod'.
I'm really stuck on what to do because when my iPod does sync to my iTunes it says 'Syncing iPod Touch (Step 1 of 1)', when usually it should be of 4 steps, like backing up data and transferring purchases e.t.c.
Then it just finishes sync..
One thing I did do was de-authorize it and re-authorize it again as I found online that it worked for some people,.... for me it didn't. To be honest I didn't expect it to work as I thought it was just for anyone trying to hack/take away your music...but it was worth a shot anyway.
But please help!
I really want to put more songs onto my iPod
Many Thanks for reading this,
~Charlotte
Update: I deleted all my songs in itunes and then put them back on, and then proceded to sync my ipod again which worked! the songs are being put on

I've recently tried reseting the whole Ipod and it came up with an on-screen message saying ''are you sure you want to reset the device? it will take up to an hour and no music or pictures will be restored'' so i clicked ''Yes, Rest'' (or what ever it said). I am now sitting here 24 hours later with an ipod that won't turn on.
i have tried holding the 'power' button down along with the 'home' button for 30 seconds etc.. and nothing is working; it won't show up on Itunes niether the computer. why won't it turn on?If you did not try any items listed here, try them
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

Hello Ditchblow,
Congratulations on your new laptop! I found an article with steps to address the issue you described:

My classic video ipod won't switch back to regular video mode after using it on an elliptical. The port still allows me to charge and works on the elliptical and treadmill but it will no longer change modes to allow me to watch my shows on the ipod screen
From the iPod's Main Menu choose Videos -> Settings and make sure TV Out is set to Off.
Otherwise, try a hard reset as well. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Why does the iTunes 10.4.1 update take me to to Apple's download webpage (to download a full version of iTunes) instead of the usual Safari/Quicktime pop-up/dialog box where I usually perform the updates?
iTunes 10.4 and Safari 5.1 contain more than 'just' the OSX Lion-release but stability and security improvements as well.
For example, here is http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1070 what the Safari 5.1 contains.
In here http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/ I can't find an "end-date" for the download of the Lion installer.
Nonetheless, personaly I would download the Lion installer and then copy it (from your Apllications folder) to a secure place (backup harddisk, external hardisk etc.).
When your IT gives it a go you can then use te Lion installer from inside the Applications folder, but I would also say to make a bootable clone of your current OSX Snow Leopard before starting the Lion installation.

I just turned on iTunes on my Mac and suddenly instead of the usual song list there's a window with what looks like a screensaver graphic. Everytime I close it it just comes back. Does anyone know how to get rid of this permanently? Thanks.

I have an iPod mini, 6 GB and want to use it with a Sony CD Boombox but the adapter is different. Can it still work? Don't want to try and break iPod.
Do you mean that the iPod mini won't fit on the "dock" because of shape (of the iPod), or is the docking connection a different type from the "30-pin" dock connector on the iPod mini?

5G iPod won't appear on my desktop or iTunes using USB 2.0
My new 5G iPod won't appear on my desktop or iTunes when I have it connected to a new 2.0 USB card in my G4 733. I know the USB card works because my old iPods work through it. My new iPod only will work through the old USB 1.0 port. I've reset it (with it attached to the computer) and done all that Apple says to do.
I am having a similar problem with my Nano. Shows up in itunes, but freezes up under USB 2.0. Other devices work fine on the card, usb 1.1 has no problems, and if I update music on my nano on the 1.1 port, and then plug it into the 2.0 port I can still update Calenders onto the iPod via iTunes.
Also, i applied the ipod updater and since this was happening under Panther, upgrading to Tiger made no difference, so I can't see this being a software error. -
HELP, I cant sync my ipod after redownloading iTunes...
I recently had to download iTunes again after my PC crashed. I have
over $180.00 worth of songs on my ipod that I dont want to lose, just
because I had to reformat..and download iTunes again..now it wants to erase all my songs so i can download the two songs I just bought. I dont see why all the songs are not in my purchased list that I had bought already, I dont have a music folder..I had a crash remember.........that doesnt seem fair that they dont show up when I sign in to the newly downloaded iTunes program.I'd like to keep the songs I already paid for.I dont think it should erase everything on my iPod just because I had to download the program again.I still sign inot it the same...grr How do I sync my iPod now without losing everything on it?Thanks for your help so far..but..
In my iTunes prog...I dont see a downloaded list with the two newest songs
I just bought..its not showing..The two new songs are only showing (with all the rest of them) on my purchased list. But when I hit sync..those two new ones arent loaded on my iPod. How do I get the two newest songs added onto my iPod? -
While installing a program (MediaCenter.exe) to handle audiobooks from the library, I erroneously associated the download site with Windows Media Player instead of the actual application (NetLibrary Media Center). How can I reverse/change this? Reinstalling the application does not clear the error, so I'm assuming the association is somewhere in Firefox.
Never mind -- I just found it under Tools/Options.../Applications, where I changed the incorrect association of "nlmcp" from Windows Media Player to the correct one, NetLibrary Media Center. Done!

I just updated to 10.8.4 and my mail program is showing a series of boxes with AAAAs inside them instead of the email addresses. Also when on Safari web pages are displaying the same AAAAAs instead of type. Firefox displays fine. Can someone help me?
Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point.
OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
Next, close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
Terminal will then ask for your admin password. As you type, it will not show anything, so be sure to enter it correctly.
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and the current user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac. -
My daughter dropped her sister Ipod gen 4 32Gb and now the screen only comes up with a white screen. What should I do?
If you have an Apple Store near you, take it there and have them check it. If you don't, I would send it in for service.
