my ipod wont change song manually or the volume cant be changed even though ive tried double clicking on the earplugs

hmmmm. let's quickly check on this to begin with:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
... but if no joy with that, this resource might be useful:
iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes on Windows

    Hi lepyykko,
    If I understand your question, you are trying to update your iPhone, but you are seeing an error message that iTunes for Windows is not installed, is that right?  The first step is to get iTunes successfully installed on your computer.  Then backup the iPhone before updating the iOS software.
    Are you seeing any error messages when you try to install iTunes for Windows?

  • Drive region wont change even though i think it can

    so my drive region wont change when i put a DVD in. i know that there is still 3 changes left, because when i try to play a DVD in DVD Player, i click "file", "get disc info", "regions" tab. (it shows a region map) down where it says "drive region changes left" there is a 3 after it. so does anyone know how to fix this? thx

    Hello MrBigshot,
    It sounds like you are wanting to change the icon of the Applications folder you have in the Dock. By default the folder is shown as a Stack and so it shows you the first application icon alphabetically in as the icon in the Dock. You can make it have the Application folder icon by changing it to display as a Folder instead:
    Display as - Displays the icon in the Dock as the folder's actual icon or as a stack of icons of the folder contents.

  • Why did my ipod receive a song separate from the album that was downloaded

    why did my ipod receive a  song separate fron the album that it was downloaded with?
    i copied a cd using itunes

    Dont have that problem but i have two tips:
    1 Other ipod/iphone apps: they are often the problem, i had an alarm clock and that blocked the whole ipod app, so check if other apps dont use songs to wake up or anything else..
    2 try to leave the ipod app trough the multitasking instead of pressing the home button?

    I was not complete clear.
    Since you never changed the settings in the advanced section of iTunes preferecnes, you have to chech that your music is really in the location setted in the folders reported in the advanced section.  If not you have 2 ways: reset the position of this folders or in the actual disk organisation or in the pointing on the preferences.
    If you press the reset button you just give to itunes its default setting as for the position of the music files: probably this will be a good choice if you have never changed any default preference.
    But before I would check the folders and see if the songs are really there
    In my iTune I have this, and I believe it is the default.

    Pardon?
    Or do you mean that, when you created a new document, you choose Web as intent maybe?

  • The screen orientation won't change even though it shows orientation as unlocked

    the screen orientation won't change even though it shows orientation as unlocked on the bottom of the screen and when I release the side button.  Any ideas?

    If rotation lock is not set (i.e. there is no lock symbol next to the battery indicator at the top of the screen, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085), then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • I am having problems with my ipod syncing all of my videos to my ipod from my itunes playlist, it will only sync about half even though they are all checked

    i am having problems with my ipod syncing all of my videos to my ipod from my itunes playlist, it will only sync about half even though they are all checked

    I assume there is more than ample space remaining on your iPod to hold all the videos?  Are you getting any error messages during the sync process?
    Do all of these videos play okay in iTunes?  Is the sync only checked songs and videos option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab?
    What other setting do you have enabled from under the iPod's video configuration tab in iTunes?

  • My icloud songs not showing up in my itunes window even though itunes match is turned on

    my icloud songs not showing up in my itunes window even though itunes match is turned on

    I Am having a similar issue with my husbands iTunes match. I restored a 2011 iMac and decided to download all my husbands music via iTunes match.  Apart from taking ages, he only has 2,500 songs on the match, it greyed out lots of songs, which later I found out said that they were 'waiting' also, loads are missing. I tried following someone else's thread and tried to delete the greyed out ones so I can download again but I fear I may have completely deleted them. Also, I have a lot of duplicates, both on iCloud and both downloaded! What's happening? My iTunes appear to be behaving ok!

  • The year on my ipod wont change back to 2012 it keeps going back 2513 help!

    Hi my ipod 2nd gen time is messed up. The date and month is fine but the year has changed to 2513 and it wont change back to 2012 it just changes back straight away please help! what can I do?

    If you head to Settings -> General -> Date & Time is it set to Automatic?  Head to Settings -> General -> International -> Calendars and make it is set to Gregorian.
    It might not hurt to reset the iPod as well.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • My iPod wont display songs even though it syncs them and sometimes it crashes iTunes. How can i Fix This???

    I have 160 GB iPod classic it worked fine for the first few months i had it now it wont sync, if it does sync it doent display the music, videoes, podcasts, etc.or it crashes iTunes, if on the off chance it doesn't do either of those things then it takes forever to sync, and it skips certain songs that worked a minute before on it and it rarely ever plays video. i tried restoring it, formatting it, troubleshooting it.so can anybody help???

    If your iPod harddisk hasn't gone  kaput yet, then try my suggestion below or else send it to Apple, if it is still under warranty.
    Antivirus has a tendency to freeze Itunes sync Operation with Ipod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your Ipod filesystem, so all the freezing symptoms point to this problem.
    My suggestion.
    Connect your Ipod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after checkdisk complete.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your Ipod to the PC
    When Itunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
    When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
    Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
    When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
    Good Luck!

  • Ipod wont update songs from itunes after new update

    I downloaded the new itunes update 5.0 and now i cant update my ipod. it keeps telling me that there is not enough room on it. so i unchecked about 1000 songs and it keeps on saying the same thing. it also took about 3000 songs off my ipod. the only way it will update is if i let itunes update it with a choice of songs they pick. please help.

    Hello All,
    I think I came up with a work around by accident and didn't realize it until I read this post.
    Did all the same stuff most have done, reset to factory, reapplied the updates, etc, still not enough free space, even though there was plenty before.
    Sooo, I went into iPod options, changed from "Automatically update all songs and playlists" to "Automatically update selected playlists only". I did this assuming that the amount of space used on my iPod would be cut in half, at least. So I sync'd and when it was done, my iPod was back to the way it originally was, having about 800MB free on a 30GB G3 iPod. Hmmm... so I looked at the pref's again and realized that the "Only update checked songs" was still checked. I have been using this setting for at least the past two years after my audio collection began to exceed my 30GB iPod's capacity. So in the end, it ended up syncing just my playlists PLUS anything that was checked which brought me back to where I started before I made the jump from 4.9 to 6.0.1. The only difference was the switching the setting "Automatically update all songs and playlists" to "Automatically update selected playlists only". Very odd. I suspect a lot of users got in trouble on this one.
    Please let me know if this fixes the problem for anyone else.
    Kindly,
    James
