5th Generation iPod won't sync with iMac iTunes 9

PLEASE help. 5th generation 8GB iPod will not sync with iTunes 9 on my iMac OSx 10.4.11. Hubby rebooted system and now I have zero songs on my iPod. I have restored iPod to factory settings and still zero songs. Itunes says sync complete everything looks good but iPod still says zero songs. Tried using new user account on iMac and going into iPod disk mode...no success. Also tried restoring playlist from PC running windows 7 still nothing. Please help...must have my tunes back asap...THANK YOU anyone who can help.

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? If not, have a look at the bottom section that covers what to try if the message keeps reappearing: iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode - Use iTunes to restore
Towards the end it says "If after restoring your iPod, the message described above reappears, the iPod drive letter may need to be reassigned. See the "Change the Drive Letter" section of this document for steps to assign a different drive letter" which contains a link to this article: Windows confuses iPod with network drive and iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

My 5th Generation iPod will not play

I've never had any problems with my 5th generation iPod before. Then I went to listen to it, and it will not play sound at all. It looks like it is playing the song, the title is coming up, the timer is running... I skip through songs, forward through songs, go to different playlists.... everything. I can do everything on the ipod, but it will not play any sound. HELP!!?!?!?

The above post is great. That technique called a reset, but it should only take about 5-15 seconds before you see the Apple logo. Much longer then that and there might be something else wrong. And it won't hurt your files at all.
If that doesn't fix your problem, try a different set of earphones. Test them on another device first to make sure their working. Or you can test the earphones you're already using with another stereo to isolate the problem to either the earphones or the iPod.
If it is the iPod that's the problem you can also try to restore your iPod in iTunes. You're iPod will be erased and new software will be loaded.

My 5th Generation iPod will not sync under Windows Vista

Wow.. I finally got registered on this forum, took ages lol.
Well I've got the latest version of the iTunes software and I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium.
When I connect my iPod, it detects ok and then iTunes starts to sync it.. after about five seconds or so I get an error stating I do not have sufficient privelages to update the "My Music" folder, and thus my iPod will not update. Immediately after this error I check device manager, and a "USB Mass Storage Device" is detected with an error state (a yellow exclamation mark next to it). I can delete this from device manager, re-connect my iPod and it will do exactly the same all over again.
Can anyone help?

I've had it working in the past, thats what is odd.
It just refuses to update saying I don't have the necessary privelages.
Not sure when the next version of iTunes will be released, hope its soon.

Have ipod nano 5th generation..will not sync dognostics in itunes says no ipod touch found...its a nano pass all other test

i have a ipod nano 5th generation. use to work fine now will not sync. have done the 5rs several times all that got me was no songs on my ipod at all. have latest version of itunes. when run diognostics test on itunes pass all but says no ipod touch found. whay is it saying no touch when its a nano? I will never purchase another ipod only worked until the warnety ended.

Although you used the new USB 3.0 port, the actual connection speed is still USB2.0, as the iPod Dock connector, does not have the 10 times faster USB3.0 signal pins, the connection speed is still 480Mbits/s
I assumed that you have tried the other USB 2.0 port to no success..
Can you do the iPod Disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Have a nice day!

5th Generation IPOD will not play

Up to this morning everything has been working fine. Today only 6 songs will play out of 25 CD's and 2 video's that have been loaded the past 3 months. When I attempt to play a particular CD, it runs through each playlist song but will not play any of them. I reset the IPOD however, that did not fix the problem.
Gateway Windows XP

I have the same problem, with a few additional things- these same files which the iPod just breezes through one by one (and not playing) will not play in iTunes on my computer, either- an exclamation point appears next to the track in the album, and it doesn't offer to have me locate anything.
Ditto for some videos- ! in iTunes next to them when I try to play, and on the iPod when I try to play said videos, the screen goes black for a while and then goes back to the menu I was just at.
Some MP3s work fine, some videos work fine, everything else SEEMS ok.
Answers or better yet, a fix...someone, anyone- PLEASE??!!!?
FYI, GQCOP, I just dumped by files that did this, though there were quite a few. Grrr.

5th Generation Ipod Will not restore.. What do I do??

I try to restore but it stops about half way and freezes. What do I do???

I had the same problem for a while with my iPod displaying a folder with an exlamation mark. When i came to restore factory settings before beginning to install i got an error message stating "disk drive error". Luckily after serveral computer restarts and disconnecting and connecting my iPod to the computer it decided to restore factory settings, fairly fortunate.

5th generation ipod does not show up on itunes

I have tried reinstalling itunes and the ipod hardware many times but there is still the same problem. The ipod showed up once before but since that time itunes has not recognized the ipod as being connected to the computer. Is there something wrong with my usb port??

I have bumped into this problem as well, check the following things:
- Do you have a USB 2.0?
- Is there any device conflicting with the drive which is designed to iPod? For instance, I had my iPod ben put under C:\. Apparently iTunes thought that was my harddisk. In Control Panel> Computer Management you can change the name of your drivers. Call iPod M:\ or something.
Doesn't this work? Apple has a Troubleshooter on its website called "iPod recognised in Windows, not recognised in iTunes" or something like that (easy to find). Good luck!

6th generation ipod will not get recogised by itunes

I've restored the ipod, reinstalled itunes and even checked my firewall settings. What can I do to make it recognise the ipod so it can sync?
It says there is something wrong with my USB port holes, however I can insert other items, for instance my blackberry the system will recognise it straight away.
My computer restored my ipod even though it claimed it could not recognise it, when I tried to then out my music back onto it, it did not work as it wass once again "not recognised"
please help

iPod appears in Windows but not in iTunes

IPod will not sync with my iTunes

Hopefully someone can help me with this. I just synced my iPod classic 80GB to my iTunes and it only gets to about the 80th song when the iPod stops syncing with iTunes but iTunes is still syncing with the iPod. I then get a message saying that The disk write has failed and it could not be saved. It then wipes my iPod of everything on it and crashes my iTunes everytime. I have restarted it and restored it many times and still the same problem persists. If anyone can help me I would be very grateful.

Hello El Bido,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
I would run an error-check on the iPod's hard disk using the tools provided by windows. To do this, open up "My Computer" and locate your iPod's icon. You may have to enable disk use on the iPod from under the Summary tab in iTunes for your iPod.
From there, right-click on it and choose "Properties" from the shortcut menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Tools tab. At the top there should be a section on error checking. Go ahead and click "Check now" and make sure you put a check mark next to "fix file system errors" as well as "look for and attempt to recover bad sectors" (something along those lines). Then wait for the process to finish.
It might then be a good idea to also reformat the iPod. Instructions on how to do that can be found in this article.
