My new iPod touch won't sync?

I got a brand new iPod touch today for Christmas, and got it all set up and everything was working perfectly. About an hour ago though I went to add more photos to the album I have synced to my iPod. When I plugged the iPod in it said "Waiting for sync to start" up at the top for about 5 minutes, then a screen popped up that said, "Amy's iPod cannot be synced because the sync session won't start" or something to that effect. No biggy I thought, I googled how to fix it and a discussion on here suggested a backup and restore. Now sense I've done that, all my music is off my iPod and I can't put any songs on because it won't sync. Can anyone help me fix this problem? Thanks in advance!!

Something similar to this?

  • New iPod Touch won't sync with computer - have latest version of iTunes and Snow Leopard. Computer won't even acknowledge the iPod.

    New iPod Touch won't sync with computer - have latest version of iTunes and Snow Leopard (10.6.8). Computer won't even acknowledge the iPod. Have restarted both, changed ports, etc. What's do I need to do?

    Have you tried here:

  • New iPod Touch won't sync reminders

    New iPod Touch - iCloud not syncing contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks.  Restarting apps or device does not help.

    Are you trying to sync these with another iOS device?  If so, are you signed into the same iCloud account in Settings>iCloud?
    Also, did you check icloud.com from your computer to see if your data is there?

  • New ipod touch won't sync with my iTunes

    I am old time iTunes user who just got new Ipod touch. It starts to sync but at last step message is "Waiting for next stage" or something and it won't sync.  I tried everything I can think of. I have lastes iTunes version. My old ipod still updates and syncs works fine.

  • New iPod Touch won't sync with iTunes as iTunes hangs

    Hello,
    I got a new iPod Touch yesterday after my old iPod Video died. Brought it home, connected it and all seemed fine until iTunes (that had worked flawlessly for years) just stopped (app stops responding).
    I can kill the app and restart and it just starts over again, but never gets all the way thru sync.
    I looked for a newer version but says I've got the latest.
    Any suggestions? Don't suppose I can sync via WiFi?
    thanks,
    Chris

    Hey Chris, I got this off iPhonenano.net
    Occasionally your iPhone or iPod touch starts syncing when you connected it to your Mac only to drop out of the sync process. Even worse, once the cycle stops, it continues every time you plug your handheld in. This fix is fairly easy, but you won't find it in iTunes. You'll know know if you are suffering from this little headache because your iPhone or iPod touch will begin the sync process, but stops unexpectedly. iTunes will display a dialog warning you that your handheld stopped communicating and the sync process was cancelled. Here's how to break the cycle so and sync as normal again:
    Connect your iPhone or iPod touch to your Mac/Pc
    After the sync process fails, launch iSync. You can find it in your Applications folder.
    Select iSync > Preferences.
    Click the Reset Sync History button.
    iSync will display a dialog explaining what happens when you reset the sync history. Go ahead and click the second Reset Sync History button.
    Quit iSync.
    Now you should be able to sync your iPhone or iPod touch again without any hassles. Since your sync history has been reset, your first post-rest sync may take longer than you expect. Depending on how much information is stored on your handheld, that could be a few extra seconds or several minutes.
    Hope this helps,
    Arnie

  • New Ipod touch won't sync with window's vista/itunes 9.2 - help!!

    I charged my brand new ipod touch via my computer, have it plugged it into my computer's USB port, and Itunes acknowledges the device in the left hand menu BUT it automatically says "itunes could not connect to the itunes store. The network connection has timed out". The ipod will not sync with my itunes! I tried connection/disconnecting, turning the ipod on and off, and restarting the computer. No luck. What do I need to do? Please help, I was so excited to get the new ipod and now I can't use it! I have window's vista and I don't know anything about how to check or change computer settings that might be preventing the store from opening (it used to open, but I haven't tried in a while and I just downloaded version 9.2 today).

    Welcome to the discussions,
    make sure your computer is authorized in the Store menu and check your security settings: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

  • New iPod Touch, won't sync purchased songs from iTunes library on new "authorized" laptop.

    I must have missed a step.  My old windows laptop died.  Tried syncing iTunes library from old laptop to new iPod touch.  Didn't work.  Downloaded iTunes to new windows laptop.  Logged into iTunes from new laptop and Authorized new windows laptop.  Uploaded a few CDs into new laptop's iTunes library.  Old purchased songs appeared on new laptop, however only uploaded songs from CDs will sync to new iPod touch. 
    Help!

  • New iPod Touch won't sync to new Macbook Pro?

    I'm getting really frustrated because Wednesday a brand new Macbook Pro and today I got a brand new iPod Touch. I connect it to my computer and it chimes, shows that it's charging, but doesn't show in itunes. The screen on my iPod is the "connect to iTunes" screen. I've tried restarting the iPod & computer, connecting & reconnecting the USB cable, switching ports, etc. I really don't understand why two new devices don't work together. Any help??

    Which version of iTunes does your new MacBook have? You will probably want to update it if it isn't 9.2. Do that first. Also, restart your MacBook book. That will make sure that everything else is working properly as well (I'm thinking USB ports).
    If your touch is still not recognized, you will need to make sure that Apple Mobile Device Services is running properly on the MacBook. See this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
    And if you are close to an Apple store and tired of playing with it, make an appointment with Genius and take your MacBook and touch in and let Apple fix it.

  • New iPod touch won't sync to Mac.

    I just got a new iPod touch, & it says to plug it into my computer & iTunes will come up. But it hasn't. iPhoto has come up instead! I am extremely confused, & this has never happened before [I've had 2 iPods before this] I've searched the website & called the people, but they don't know what is wrong. Please help!
    It is also completely charged. Plus, I have manually opened iTunes myself & still nothing has happened.
    If anyone has any ideas, then please contact me at ZOMGCarina at aim dot com
    Email or IM is fine. I also have MSN, ZOMG.Carina at hotmail dot com. Same thing goes for that one as well. I will most likely forget the link to get back to this, that it why I'm offering my screen names. Thanks in advance. :] <3
    <Edited by Moderator>

    I assume you are using a Mac. To stop iPhoto from opening automatically, open "Image Capture" in your applications folder. Go to Image Capture -> Preferences -> Camera and set it to read "when a camera is connected, open No Application." You can still use iPhoto by starting it yourself.
    Plug in your iPod again. Make sure you are using a USB 2.0 slot directly on your computer, a USB hub should not be used.
    If you start iTunes and it doesn't show your phone, you might need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service. Check out this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747 for instructions.
    PS: You'll get a lot better advice here if you go to "My Settings" in the box to the right under the Welcome and fill out some information about what model computer and what operating system you have.

  • Brand new iPod touch won't sync:

    My girlfriend got a 8GB iPod touch for Christmas. I just plugged it into her Vaio (Windows 7) laptop to sync her iTunes (which is the latest version). The first time it froze some 4 songs into the sync. The whole computer was frozen & I had to force it to restart. Long story short, I went through this process numerous times, each time doing a complete reset on her iPod & starting from fresh every time on the iTunes sync. However, every single time, it freezes at a certain point of the sync process.
    I am assuming this is a hardware issue, since I also have a brand new 64GB touch syncing as we speak on my desktop computer.
    Anybody else having this problem & have a solution?

    I'm getting the same problem. I thought it was something that went wrong during downloading, so I was going to try and re-download the songs. I don't know if that'll work though.

  • New Ipod touch won't sync music from my dell laptop and I haven't done anything with Itunes as I just want to sync for now.  thanks

    I am new to Apple and can't sync my music from laptop to Ipod touch even tho my laptop recognizes the Ipod.  I haven't signed up for Itunes yet as I'm doing one thing at a time and don't see where Itunes is connected to syncing music.  Also, if I bought 8 gig, then why do I only have 6 when I haven't added anything yet?
    thanks

    - You need an Apple ID/iTunes account to use the iPod with iTunes.
    See the Users Gudie for how to set and use yur iPod, including syncing music.
    iPod touch User Guide (For iOS 5.0 Software)
    You can also use the iTunes Help n iTunes for more information on syncing.
    - The 8 GB only has abou6 6.3 GB avaailable to the users inse the difference is takenup bu the operating system and of how GB is advertized and used.

  • New ipod touch won't sync with pc

    i got an ipod touch today and when i connect to to my pc i cant sync it.
    both the ipod and the pc play the "device connected" sound and when i first put it in, the windows device manager thing installed it, but itunes doesn't open when i connect it, and there is no devices list, also the "sync ipod" option in the file menu is greyed out.
    i have looked at the help page, and when i opened "services.msc", apple mobile device was not on the list.

    I am having the same problem. I get a message that says the hard drive on my iTouch can't be accessed. The device shows in the device section of iTunes, but it will not sync.

  • My daughter has a new ipod touch and when synced it had all of my iphone contacts. she deleted the ones she didn't want and they were removed from my phone as well. How can I get them back if they were deleted from the cloud? I also had them on my pc

    My daughter bought a new ipod touch and when synced received the contacts from my iphone. She deleted the ones she didn't want on her ipod and now they are gone from my iphone. I have the cloud and i thought back up on itunes. I have tried to re-sync and no luck. How can I get my contacts back?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?
