New 80 gig takes 12 hours to sync

I have a new 80 gig 5th gen ipod. When I plug it in, I have to leave it overnight for it to synch. The entire computer slows down considerably. The computer was just re-imaged witha new operating system installed (XP). When not using ipod, everything works great and fast. Upon completion of synch, ipod only has 1780 of 7200 songs.

1- You didn't conect iPod to 2.0 usb.
2- if you did, try out this: ephpod for Ipod -just check for which generation of Ipod is it used.
Anyway that iPod has very big memory, ( 80GB holy **, just like HD of my other comp ) so it would take a while.
If you're having problem with ipod and i tunes, you try this :
Uninstall the itunes from computer ( and folders of itunes and ipod left behind the uninstalation ) and reinstall itunes again. ( before reinstalling restart comuter ).
Conect ipod to iTunes which You reinstall.
hope this helps

IPad takes hours to sync photos

Hi all
When I first got my iPad in October, it synced all photos fine. I had loads of folders on there and could add new ones whenever I wanted to, quickly.
All of a sudden when I sync my iPad it optimizes every single photo and takes hours and hours to sync.
This is utterly ridiculous considering there are over 2000 photos, it does it for every one each time! How can I leave my iPad syncing for hours every single time I want to add new photos, why cant it just be like adding new music it takes a few seconds to add the new items!
I have searched and searched on internet forums for an answer and they all just say NO cant turn it off. So basically I cannot have photos on my iPad as the function is NOT efficient and fast like it used to be. I havent changed anything at all, all I want is my photos of my baby girl on my iPad.
Please someone help, there must be a way around this.
Thanks

This happened to me, and I found that the process was slow because I was using a separate hard drive (connected to my wireless modem) to store the photos on.
When I connected my pc directly to my wireless modem using a cable, then disabling wireless, I found the sync speed was much faster.

Ipod touch takes hours to sync

iTouch (v. 2.2) using iIunes (v. 8.0.2.20) takes several hours to sync. When reviewing the summary it actually "syncs" quickly but takes hours and hours to "backup."

Hi tbarnardiii,
This could be a USB connection issue. Make sure the iPod is directly connected to a high seed USB 2 port and try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1286
What apps are on your iPod touch? Try removing the apps and test syncing again.

Why does it take hours to sync and backup a 12GB data?

Does anyone know why it takes hours and hours to just sync and backup my 16GB iPhone 3GS before it installs the iOS5? This is getting rediculous! Why do Apple force us to use iTunes?

Shouldn't take that long although waiting a long time in between syncs can create longer backup times... ie more data, apps, etc... to back up etc... Make sure both iPad and iTunes are most current versions. Make sure you are using the iPad sync cord that came with the device and not another from a iPhone or iPod. Cables can screw up the deal.
Start there first and let us know how it goes.

Music takes hours to sync on Playbook

I have been trying to sync a playlist from itunes to my playbook its about 2700 songs the first 500 songs go by fast then it lags it does like 60 songs every hour i have restored my playbook reinstalled the desktop manager and I get the same results someone pleae help oh and im on a Mac cpu

Are you syncing through DM for Mac? I just uploaded about 7.5GB of music to my PlayBook earlier on a PC (about 1500-1700 songs) and it took roughly a half hour, give or take a few minutes. Can you mount your PB as a drive on your Mac? You could try dragging and dropping in mass storage mode. That might give you a faster transfer speed, but I can't say for sure.

IPod Classic takes hours to sync a single song

I had an iPod Nano which was recently replaced by an iPod Classic. The first time I plugged the Classic into my computer, iTunes would not recognize it. I had to plug it into a different computer with iTunes on it to do the intial setup stuff. When I plugged it into my computer, it sync'd just fine. Everytime since then that I try to sync on my computer iTunes takes 15 minutes to show that it is there and every command (minimize, cancel, close, etc.) takes 15-20 minutes to execute. Also, it took almost 4 hours for iTunes to restore the Classic. Then after running for almost 10 hours, it had still only sync'd 110 songs (average length).
What the heck? I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, I've tried different cables. When I plug the Nano into the same computer, it works perfectly. Someone help me out here. I have a feeling this one is going to have to be replaced. I've not even had it for a month yet.

The Classic sometimes seems to be a bit more sensitive to the state of the USB drivers on a PC than earlier models. With that in mind, does updating or reinstalling your USB drivers help with the connection performance of the Classic?
For information on how to go about doing that, see the following document:

My iPhone4 takes hours to sync with iTunes.

My iPhone4 used to sync in only a couple of minutes. Then it started taking several hours. The header in iTunes said it got to step 5 of 5 and was importing photos. I tried deleting all of the photos from the iPhone and the syncing problem went away. I checked to make sure all of the file extensions were the same and deleted the big files but when I put the photos back on the iPhone, the problem returned.

Delete the iPod photo cache, as described here:

Sync takes hours

My new 3Gs takes hours for the SYNC to complete, and not just the first time, everytime, this is really annoying, I have deleted and reinstalled Itunes 8.2, no help, reset the Iphone via Itunes. My computer is a home built running a AMD 3500 chip, 2 megs of RAM, G-Force 6600, and Windows XP home with all the updates, please help!

Typically this is a data corruption...mostly with an installed app...ESPN is known to cause this issue...remove it and reinstall the app...if you don't have ESPN then try to remember the last few apps you installed and remove each of them until you find the one that causes the lag...then reinstall the app again...
Removing all apps may be needed if you dont remember which apps are recently added...just remove them all and then reinstall..
99% of the time this will fix your issue...
1% you may need to do a full restore...just remember to NOT select "restore from backup" and be sure to USE "restore as new iPhone"
Using the back up to restore just puts the corrupt data right back on...

My ipod nano was working fine until i uploaded some new tunes today. It sync properly and once disconnected it just switched off and would not even turn on. I have put it on charge for a few hours but nothing happens, infact the charger is getting hot.

The backlight burned out from getting it wet. You will have to replace the screen at a 3rd party shop, buy a screen and replace it yourself, or make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out-of-warranty replacement for $199 USD.

Why does it take so long (many hours) to sync my iPod nano?

Is this normal? It takes 5-6 hours to sync 2500 songs to my 6th gen nano. Seems excessive. The guy at the Apple store genius bar said this should take only about an hour.

8 hours later and it is reading "finishing sync" which I believe is past Step 5 and I have no idea when the "finish" will occur and am afraid to disconnect/interrupt the sync. The current version of itunes (11) is installed and syncing Microsoft Outlook (about 400 contacts, calendar, etc) for the first time. What should I do next besides wait?
