Names changed in itunes don't update on iPod Touch

I have a brand new 32 gb iPod touch which won't hold all of my music. I checked the convert to 128 kbps AAC so that I can get the whole collection on. The problem is I was cleaning up the names of some of my ripped music and I had a band that was listed twice on the iPod because there was a different spelling in the name from two different albums. Even after manually fixing the artists they still appear differently on the Touch.
I know that the 128 aac versions are completely separate from the original music but could this be why the albums are not updating? Is there a way to force the sync so the changes show up (whether my guess at the 128 aac is correct or not)?

I don't know if you have fixed this yet, but the thread isn't marked as answered. Music names won't change on your iPod if you are manually managing your music.

Computer AND iTunes don't recognize my iPod touch. Comp thinks it is a camera. iTunes won't bring up devices at all. I've already uninstalled iTunes and QT and reinstalled after problem that happened when I updated iTunes... getting beyond P/Oed!!!

Computer AND iTunes don't recognize my iPod touch. Comp thinks it is a camera or something. iTunes won't bring up devices at all. I've already uninstalled iTunes and QT and reinstalled after problem that happened when I updated iTunes - updated iTunes completely demolished my computer's ability to recognize the sound card and computer had NO sound at all. I had to uninstall iTunes, QT, AND my sound card and reinstall them all. Sound worked fine, but now I can't sync my iPod. Computer recognizes that "something" is hooked up (thinks it might possibly be a camera) and I get that "open with" window. In "my computer" it shows that there is an "iPod" connected, but it is pictured as a camera. In iTunes my username is no longer appearing (although account info is there) and NO devices whatsoever get listed. There is nothing wrong with my USB ports or cable. And of course Apple won't help anyone unless you pay them to. ... I am getting beyond P/Oed!!! You pay hundreds for a product and all you get are headaches with their stupid bug infested software and no support at all.
Can anyone out there help me clean up this unbelievable mess Apple and iTunes has created in my computer?
Thank you.

After three completely wasted days trying to figure all of this out I finally got it fixed - on my own - by reading dozens and dozens of rogue posts in indie forums from people that refuse to dish out money to have a company TRY and advise possible fixes on their own glitches.
(here's a novel idea - fix the glitches Apple. Or - don't send out updates filled with bugs in the first place)
Everything (several applications) had to be uninstalled in a very specific order and then restarted , then it all had to be verified with manual deletions of leftovers, and emptying the recycle bin, then another restart, then iT had to be reinstalled again and the system restarted again, and two more update downloads. Holy!!!
I love my little iPod touch, but I honestly must say, when this kind of thing happens (and it has several times now when I try to deal with iTunes or Apple), it makes me want to flush it down the toilet.

ITunes is confusing update of iPod Touch with update of iTunes

I have a powerbook G4 1.25Ghz/2 Gigs RAM/120 Gig HD running OS 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1. I also have a iPod Touch 2nd gen running iOS 4.1. I'm trying to update the iPod Touch to iOS 4.2 using the "update" icon under the heading "Version" in the "Summary" window for the iPod Touch within iTunes. It is located next to a sentence that says "A newer version of the iPod software is available (version 4.2). To update your iPod with the latest software, click update." When I click on the update button, a window pops up that says "This version of iTunes (9.2.1) is the current version." Obviously, something is corrupted within iTunes. I just did an archive and install of the operating system and, afterwards, a reinstall of iTunes. Do I have to reinstall iTunes again, or is there an easier fix?

I think the problem is this:
You're running Tiger (OS 10.4), which is not compatible with iTunes 10
iTunes 10 is required to update to IOS 4.2

How do i change my itunes backup location for my ipod touch 4th gen?

I was tlkaing to my dad and noticed that my C: drive is rather low on space and i was shocked cause of how i do not install games and unnecessary stuff on tehre and one of the biggest folders was my itunes backup for my 4th gen I-pod Touch 32 gig.
Well I looked in itunes and I looked under preferences and then advanced preferences the place to change the Itunes media folder, but need ot know if that also includes everything like apps, my songs, etc or if i am looking in the wrong place. I really want to move those 13 gigs of backup off of C: to another drive that has more space, also not sure if I'd need to re-install anything on a drive or not. So any help in this matter is appreciated.

Not that easy but can be done:

Apps listed in iTunes don't install on iPod touch 4G

I have several apps I've downloaded from the iTunes Store, but even after syncing the iPod touch, those apps aren't installed. They still show up in the Apps Library in iTunes, but not on the touch. All of those apps were listed as being compatible with an iPod touch, but are they not being installed because they're not really compatible, or for some other reason? I have iOS 4.3.1 installed

Since I received your message I explored further into iTunes and discovered some other screens that display what's installed on my iPod. The apps that weren't installed were not checked in the list of apps. However, the box that says something about automatically installing all new apps was checked which was why I've not had trouble getting apps to install in the past. Now I know where to look.

Why wont itunes let me update my ipod touch 4g. to ios 5

itunes has a message pop up whenever i try to update saying it "could not be restored, an unknown error occured. (3194)". how do i fix this?

The first thing to check is that you have the latest version of iTunes. Running an older version is the most common reason to get a 3194 error.
If your computer is running the latest version or upgrading doesn't fix the problem, try the steps listed in the section headed "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in this support article:

Hope this helps.

My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer. Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1 iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer. Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1 iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

My ipod and itunes both are skipping to another song about in the middle of the song. It doesn't happen on all songs...only some songs. I have reset the ipod, I have done a restore, I have reloaded itunes, I have updated the ipod but still am unable to figure out why. It did not used to do this. I can't figure out any pattern to the songs it does it on versus that it doesn't do it on. Some of the songs are purchased, some are imported, etc. We are running Windows 7.

When I tried to update my ipod touch, there was a problem and i don't get to restaure the softwere

I was updating my ipod touch 64gb with the new operation softwere, there was a problem, and the itunes message showed that I had to restaure. When I try to restaure the follow message appear '' The apple site is not available" I tried to use the existent procedures without sucess. What sould I do?

If the message said can not contact the update server:
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Otherwise I do not understand the problem.

I was updating my iPod Touch 5 iOS from Ver 7.0.3 to Ver 7.0.4 and myiPod locked up. I can not reset or restore the unit. The only thing it will do is show me a graphic of thr lightning cable facing up to an arrow and then to a circular blue iTunes icon. I interpert this to mean "connect the iPod to my computer thru the USB cable while iTunes is running. I do this and nothing changes. Total lock up. Any ideas?
Thanks.
