My iPod wont sync to my iTunes.

It'll say it's syncing but then it'll stop and say "Error -1303" or something along those lines and I've tried restoring it and resetting it numerous times but it still doesn't work. I've alsop tried manually adding songs but it still will only let me go so far before saying some sort of error with my iPod. My iPod started acting weird a while ago so I did the select button and menu button reset and then it deleted everything off of it and since then I've restored it a lot of times and stuff but it still wont sync. It's an iPod classic 80gb. My iTunes is also up to date and the software on the iPod is as well.

You can follow this guide to transfer the music and video from iPod classic back to computer, and then manually add the files into your iTunes to combine with the new iTunes library, and then re-sync your iPod. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

My ipod wont sync with my itunes on my laptop.

It says that my itunes is not connected to the internet but my laptop is connected to the internet. Whenever I seek the option to sync my ipod it won't let me click on it (the area is shaded & not giving me the option) At first I thought it was my firewall blocking it but it isn't so I'm really not sure what the problem is. Can anyone help me? This problem has been for a while now.

open itunes. Then Edit/preferences/syncing/
check box to disable automatic syncing

I downloaded itunes 10.5 and now my ipod wont sync up with it, whats wrong?

i downloaded itunes 10.5 and ever since then my ipod wont get recognised by itunes, how do i fix this?

This tutorial for downgrading says you have to do this when that notice appears after you've downgraded:
iTunes 10.5 upgrades the iTunes library file and won’t let you downgrade, so you will need the prior version library file. Here’s how to go about that
5) You will need to rename iTunes Library.itl to iTunes Library.bak
6) Go into the “Previous iTunes Libraries” folder where you will find several files with dates in their names. The most recent one will have the .itl extension, but the others don’t. Copy that to the parent folder ~/Music/iTunes/ and rename it iTunes Library.itl
7) Congrats. You’re done.

New computer--do i erase ipod and sync with new itunes library?

I downloaded itunes on my ancient pc and that's where I synced my ipod. i finally put that pc out to pasture and now have a new laptop. i downloaded itunes to the new computer, and when i hooked up my ipod i got the message "the ipod is synced with another itunes library. Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library?" So do I want to erase and sync or not? I'm scared I'm going to mess everything up if I erase it.
One more question: my daughter got a new ipod; once i figure out this syncing issue with my existing ipod, do I need to set up a new account for the new ipod, or can i sync it with the account i already have?
sorry for all the questions--I'm a newbie and want to get this right. Thanks for your help!

Hello. I recently had to restore my computer (as if it was new due to, to many viruses) Afterwards itunes was still there but the music i have on my ipod was not previously purchased through itunes but they were on my computer and placed in itunes library and sent to my ipod. Well after restoring my pc, itunes opened up when i connected my ipod and it asked me to update. So i updated to itunes 10. Now it is telling me that this ipod is registered to my fiance' and it is running off a different itunes library, and that I would either need to erase and sync to the new library in itunes 10, or transfer to itunes 10 library. I tried transfer and restarted itunes, but it just asked me the same questions again. It wouldnt let me create new place lists either. im scared to erase bc i have so many songs i wont remember what there all were to go back and download if it actually erases all my current songs or applications. I assumed when itunes updated to itunes 10, it would update with all my information. And although the ipod is registered in his name or however he did that, I also have sum form of account with apple/itunes because it uses my email address and my credit card during purchases for this ipod (his name is just there). i dont understand what I am suppose to do to fix this problem. These songs are still on my computer and the program where i downloaded them from but since i had to restore the whole computer, its like they are probably hidden files and arent being detected i guess. I really dont know. I have been reading and I see many ppl with the same issue. Any suggestions that wont cost me anything or a little of nuthing to resolve? I heard of Tansee Ipod Transfer but it charges you to move your files from your ipod, into a folder, to your computer, and then to be added to your itunes. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks...Lana

My ipod wont sync with my computer after i have reset it all?

I have reset my iPod touch and it wont sync with my iTunes at all and also my iTunes store wont work, a message is showing up saying connect with internet when my internet is already connected?

Is the iPod sign into the account?
Just what are you doing when you get the message?
What is the exact wording of the error message?
Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.

How come my ipod wont sync new songs?

Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

My ipod wont sync - I dont have access privileges

Please can someone help me - I have had my ipod for a few years now and never had problems - now it wont sync with my itunes libary to my ipod as I dont have access privileges for some reason - does anyone know how I can regain my access privileges?

In iTunes, head to Edit -> Preferences and then click the Advanced tab when the new window comes up. What is the location of your iTunes library on your PC under the Media location?
Once you have that information, you'll want to browse out to that folder. Once you have found it, right->click on it and choose Properties. When the window comes up, make sure you are under the General tab. Make sure the folder is not set to Read Only. Then make sure the change is applied to all subfolders and files.

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

Hi I have an 80G ipod classic, It is a few years old and i have recently updated from a pc to Mac. When i connect my classic to the Mac it tells me that this ipod is synced to another itunes account ! If i restore i will loose all my music. Help!

I have an ipod Classic 80G. It is a few years old and hasnt been used for a while. I have just tried to sync it to my new Mac and it says theat thei ipod is synced with another itunes account!!!
It was orriganally managed through my old pc but as far as i am aware the itunes account is the same. If i sync with my mac it will remove all that is in the Classsic and replace it with current itunes!
How can i get round this ?

Hi Becki ..
You need to "authorize" the Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one. Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.
