My wife upgraded to a 32 gb ipod touch and I took her 8 gb. I want to reset mine to factory settings without messing with the stuff on hers. I assume because of icloud, every time I take something off of mine it comes off of hers too. Any help????

MY WIFE UPGRADED TO A 32GB AND PASSED HER 8GB ON TO ME. I WANT TO RESET MINE AND START FRESH BUT EVERYTIME I TAKE SOMETHING OFF MINE IT COMES OFF HERS AS WELL. HOW CAN I DO IT WITHOUT CLEARING HERS?

Connect the iPod to yur computer and restore to factory defaults/new iPod. You can also go to Settings>General>Erase all content and setting. Thge set up the iPod the way you want.
ALso, go to Settings>Store and turn off Automatic Downloads.

  • Just brought a new iPod touch and when I set it up (twice now, after resenting to factory settings) there are grey squares on all screens at the top and the apps over these squares won't open. Any suggestions?

    I can't envision what yo are seeing.
    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

    Try deleting it and reinstalling it.
    you can also try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so until it reboots and see if that helps.

    My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
    Thanks.

    - You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
    Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
    - If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
    go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

    If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

    either Select All and drag to the left (turn on the Lock Automation menuItem if you have any automation curves)
    or

    Try:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Do not omit the Additional Information paragraph.
    Is the iPod that connects an iPod touch? If not that does not mean anything since iOS devices like iPod touch, iPhone and iPad use different drivers than other iPods.

  • I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad.  As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message.  I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

    I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad.  As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync.  I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed.  Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message.  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • HT4113 I have an ipod touch and am locked out. not sure how to reset it

    I have an ipod touch and it is disabled and not sure how to enable it. can anyone help?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

  • Daughter IPOD Touch 4th lost all music from itunes, Itunes suggested to restore to factory settings. Have done so last few days, all showing 20 hours to restore then times out and starts back to 20 hours again. Will not sync at all. HELP

    IPOD TOUCH(4th gen) MUSIC DISPLAY has wiped out all my music. The music I have is all still on ITUNES but will NOT SYNC. When attempted a displayes message appeared- Cannot read contents of IPOD (my IPOD name), go to Summary tab to Restore to factory settings. When I click OK it takes me to a CLICK on RESTORE OPTION, which I did. Then it explains that I will lose all APPS, etc.. to restore. I clicked OK again and it shows my IPOD is Downloading Software Update. The only thing being it has done this for 3 days now. It starts by stating will take 20 hours, goes down to 12 or 10 and prompts OUT and when I redo the thing again it starts back up at 20 hours but continually times out. *Also, in case it matters ,the SYNC option on my IPOD in ITUNES is Highlighted as to where I cannot use that option. Everytime I start it back up I get the same message (Cannot read contents of IPOD, go to Summary Tab,etc..) Help.

  • Upgraded to 3.0 for Ipod touch and stereo can't find music

    I just upgraded to 3.0 and now I can't listen to music in my car. I have a Kenwood KDC-MP642U stereo head unit with a USB interface. All worked fine before the upgrade.
    The stereo just blinks "reading" for 30 seconds and then "No Music Data". I returned the stereo thinking that was the problem and here I am. We even tried a seperate Ipod which worked.
    Why is this even an issue?
    Please help?

    I'm don't know if the stereo is compatible with Iphone/Ipod 3.0? I'm assuming that the stereo isn't compatible with 3.0 since it stopped recognizing my "music data" immediately after I upgraded. I purchased the stereo within the last 2 months. Is my stereo not compatible with my Ipod or is my Ipod not compatible with my stereo( I would like to think it's the latter)? I'm trying to find a firmware update or solution for this problem.
    I exchanged the stereo for the same model. After the Installer swapped radios we tried my Ipod touch(which DIDN'T work) then his newer generation Nano(which DID work).
    Thanks

  • My daughter bought an 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  We are using the charger from an ipod touch and it won't charge.  Someone posted online that not all chargers will work on the classic.  Anyone else have this issue and any suggestions?

    My daughter bought a 4th generation ipod classic without a charger.  The ipod was working just fine, but then we tried to charge it using a brand new charger for an Ipod Touch.  It won't charge and someone online someone posted that there ipod touch charger worked on the ipad, phone and whatever else he had but it wouldn't work on the classic.  Anyone else have this same issue?  Any solutions?

    The ipod did not come with a power cord as we purchased it used from ebay.  The ipod was half charged when we received it and it worked well enough to transfer songs to my computer (the previous seller didn't delete their 2000 plus songs).  My son then used the same cord on his computer to transfer the songs, but processed an update to the ipod and after that,it wouldn't work.  So, I'm not sure if we received a bum ipod, an update issue or we have a charger issue, but the cord we used to transfer the songs came from my son's brand new ipod touch.  We've also tried 2 other chargers from ipods we have in the house, 1 being a wall charger. 
    One individual posted online that he took his ipod classic, mac and phone overseas with one charger and it worked fine on all but the classic.  So, I'm thinking that they cords may not be universal.  Online I've read that it must be a 6 pin firewire, high power 2.0 usb cord.  Or that I need to purchase an applie charger.  We don't live close to an apple store and I'm reluctant to order one just to have it NOT work. 
    My daughter is learning the hard way that buying off of ebay is not always the best solution to a cash strapped 12 year old.
    Any other advice is greatly appreciated.
