Would like to reformat but I can not see it in My Computer.Iam at the end of loooong hours of trying, time is running out because it is a Xmas present.Please any clue will be helpful.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Just to be sure, you are looking in Music-->playlists knowing that they are in alphabetical order?
Also, are you automatically updating, meaning that when you connect it automatically syncs your songs?

As Limnos says, you first need to update to OS X 10.6.8 before you can install iTunes 11 (please note the version numbers).
To update OS X close all running applications and make sure you have a current backup. Then pull down the Apple menu and select Software Update. This may show you several items that you can update. Choose OS X 10.6.8. This may take some time. After the process is complete you will be able to run Software Update again and it ought to offer you iTunes 11.

IPod freezes after updating to software version 1.2!!!

iPod freezes after updating to software version 1.2!!! After installing version 1.2 the "do not disconnect" screen took forever to disappear, so i just removed the cables and it still remained
like that, i restarted it manually, but now it's getting stuck when the apple logo appears...i reset it and when i finnally turns on, and i'm at the language tab, it freezes. can anyone help.!?

Apple just released firmware 1.2.1 for the ipod, you should try restoring your iPod again with that.

Do i need a new charge adapter after updateing my i phone 3

What do you mean by "updating"? If you mean "updating the software", the answer is no. If you mean buying a newer iPhone, the answer dpends upon which newer model you bought.

Update - Help - Brand New ipod - won't update with software

IPod will not update with cd-rom it came with - this is the first - initial - brand new install of ipod
win xp with sp2 installed
used cd-rom that came with ipod - followed instructions to the tee - stated it can not update ipod - itunes does not see ipod - went to web site and downloaded 47mb file from june 05
still will not update - states ipod not supported by this software - the ipod is BRAND NEW - 30gb color photo ipod??
please help me

Hi I had the same problem with my last ipod. i tried all of the steps on the apple support site but none of them worked. I decided to send my ipod in for a repair. Anyway when a week later my ipod came back it was fixed but when i loaded up the computer the disk locked again. I followed through the instructions which said to download the newest software. So i downloaded the new software again and this still didnt work. The last thing i tried to do was to use an old version of an updater so i used (ipod updater 2004-11-15) this ran through the restore process and after completing this, the menu on the ipod loaded up. I then connected to itunes and it allowed it to communicate and transfer the songs
It worked for me i hope it works for you.
Best of luck

New iPod Nano user, updated to 1.2, then boom!

Greetings.
I just tried to update the iPod Nano system software using the iPod Updater (for Microsoft Windows) software.
After it was done and it appeared successful, I safely disconnected the iPod Nano from the system. The Nano flashed the Apple/iPod logo and then the menu came up. It prompted me for the language (English), which is understandable as all of the the documentation I've read so far indicates some of the settings may be lost and need to be reset after a software update. After answering it (English), I noticed all of my copied music, podcasts, etc., were gone.
I promptly plugged it back into the system and iTunes didn't recognize it. In fact, iTunes just sat there for awhile.
I rebooted.
During the reboot process, I unplugged the Nano (which is safe to do as nothing has a lock on the device until the OS loads) from the system. I logged into XP, launched iTunes, plugged the Nano back into the system, and it still doesn't recognize it and just hangs.
Same procedure: rebooted the system.
This time, while the system was rebooting, I reset the iPod Nano via the two-button method. It seemed fine.
I logged into Windows and decided to "Restore" it to factory default with the iPod Updater software. I launched that program and when instructed to plug an iPod into the system, I did. The program just hangs.
iTunes loads and all of my songs, podcasts, etc., are there, but when I attempt to connect an iPod to this system, things get hosed. So, apparently this updated iPod (new) is hosing my system.
Any suggestions as I seem to be stuck?
Or should I just send it into Apple Service/Support?

A FIX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ive been reading this over and over on different threads - with the latest Ipod updater (not proven, but it happened for the first time with me) the memory on the iPod (my 5th generation nano) got cooked.
Symptoms after update:
- The little wheel on the top left corner of the Ipod would spin occasionally, the USB device icon would show up in the taskbar, but iTunes would not see it and the iPod updater would lock-up/freeze/hang when trying recognize the iPod.
- XP and W2K would sometimes freeze or lockup but always run slowly.
- When browsing to the available disk drives, the iPod would show up as a removeable drive and when clicking on it, it would say "Insert disk".
Days of madness follow:
I tried the 5 Rs and it did not work.
I tried disabling USB2 speeds and nothing.
I tried formatting it as suggested by one user (it made sense) thru MY COMPUTER/MANAGE/DISK DRIVES/ but it would not see the iPod as a disk drive there either to do that.
I tried 3 diff USB cables, 3 diff computers (1 XP and 2 W2Ks) - nothing but frustration!!!
Then, an epiphany. Looking at the back of the iPod and contemplating the dropping-it-from-your-waist fix someone had suggested (did I mention I was insane at this point?), I noticed this mystical symbol that I see every day on large, powerful looking silver boxes at work - an apple-esqe logo with a bite taken out of it. TAKE THE NANO BACK TO ITS CREATOR! IT WOULD KNOW WHAT TO DO!
The FIX:
But seriously, I plugged my death-dealing Nano(I wrecked the settings on my main machine trying to get it work) into a Mac G5 OSX10.4.7 machine and it came up, but would not work properly - yet. I then formatted the drive thru Disk Utilities as DOS(FAT32)and the Nano was reborn! Works on all systems immediately without hiccup!
If you are swearing, pulling your hair out and spitting on people you don't know due to frustration with your iPod exhibiting these problems, FIND A MAC with OSX10.4 (supporting USB interface) or an Apple store and tell them what to do if they don't know OR ship it to me and I will fix the **** thing for you in a day for the cost of postage - REALLY! I was on the verge of hopelessness and feel bad for all of the others out there going thru the same thing.
Apple has REALLY dropped the ball on this one thus far with the lack of info/fixes from a PC perspective.
Contact me at [email protected] if you want to take me up on the fix offer and otherwise, hope this helps!

Why is my ipod lag after updating it to ios 7

Why doesn't my IPod run smoothly when i play game with it after updating it to ios 7? Is there

Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory.
Next for liiely more inprovements
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Can't add songs to iPod Touch after updating to v2.0

I just updated my iPod Touch to v2.0 and now I cannot load any songs onto it. When I drag songs or playlists over the Touch in the iTunes Devices list they just bounce off. Everything else seems to be acting properly. Contacts, Photos, etc. sync/update just fine.
I had this problem before after updating to Leopard. I can't find the thread I used then. It walked you through a process of deleting some file in the User>>Library folder before reinstalling iTunes. Unfortunately I don't remember which file(s) need to be tossed.
Anybody know the sequence or have a link to the earlier thread?
Thanks...
John

An update...
Having nothing left to lose, I trashed iTunes and reinstalled it. Now I can at least sync Playlists. I'm not sure why I can't drag songs onto the iPod touch.
Still waiting for help on that one...

Nothing new in GDM after updating to 3.2

Hello everyone,
I keep hearing about GDM's new look in 3.2 but it's the same for me. Nothing changed after updating, so I guess something must be wrong. Anyone had the same issue?

There are some (well quite a few) problems related to incompatible extensions causing all manor of problems - might also be causing your apparent lack of appearance update. General policy seems to be disable (preferable uninstall) all current extensions until someone finds some useful info on the undocumented changes to the extension api and can provide updates... believe me i've looked
There are some extensions that respond to manually editing the main() function in the js files - but this does not work in all cases. Even the same extension on different boxes are exhibiting pretty random behaviour :$

IPod error after updating iTunes

I just updated to the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I purchased music, it downloaded and showed up in the library but when i connect my iPod to load the music on there I get an error message saying "The iPod cannot be synched. An unknown error has occured (-48.)" I have tried adjusting the settings to auto synch and manual but nothing is working. The songs will appear on the iPods playlist on my computer but when I disconnect the are not actually on the iPod itself. Has anyone else had this trouble?

I'm having that problem tonight. Anyone else with this issue??? Any known remedies?
Currently, it's stuck in eternal synching (transferring purchases from my iPod) and after an hour I receive the "iPod cannot be synched". Grrrrrr.... i'd hate to restore the iPod, if it's not necessary.

Placeholder artwork corrupted after updating to v9.2

After updating to iTunes 9.2, I'm noticing the album artwork used to represent no album artwork has become corrupted. Here's a picture of the problem:
http://www.imagebam.com/image/37a24b85099950
Does anyone have any idea of what to do to fix it?

Also having this issue. Not sure what is causing it or how to fix it, but this is what happens for me. This is repeatable for me. looks the same time every time I quit and restart iTunes.
Upon starting iTunes, the images look corrupted:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4754579/corrupted.jpg
When when switching from Music to a playlist and back to music, the corruption changes.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4754579/corrupted2.jpg
When switching to another playlist and then back to music, they seem to return to normal, but still have some of the second corruption in them. It looks faded like the corrupted and clean images are multiplied together.
After repeating this step a third time, the image is almost completely back to normal but with trace amounts of corruption.
After one more time, the image appears to return to normal:

Anyone else do this, or something like this?

IPod freezing after update to 1.2, downgrade to 1.1.2 fixes it

I like many others was suffering with a dead ipod after update to 1.2, after many frustrating hours of resetting, restoring and reformatting, I decided to reformat the iPod and reinstall version 1.1.2 which can be downloaded from the downloads section. Following this my iPod is working fine.
Hurrah.

How did you reformat your iPod? I have been trying to do this, but after I attempt to sync my ipod and I press the restore button, it only tells me that
an unknown error doesn't let me restore it.
I thought that iTunes 7.01 would do the trick, but nothing happened.

ITunes & Music Files on iPod Nano Corrupted after Update to iTunes 7.0.1

I updated to latest version of iTunes. Now I can't load my music onto it, since iTunes won't recognize it. I have tried all recommended fixes by Support website. So, I looked at the files on my iPod. I can't access either the iTunes file or the Music file. Windows tells me they are corrupted. It also tells me to run "chkdsk".
Three questions:
Should I run chkdsk?
How do I run chkdsk?
If chkdsk fails, can I go into DOS and erase these two files on my iPod? (I think that I can remember how to do that!)

Hi,
Hahahah, You are using the right word "seem" and in fact I am not a particularly bright guy on the discussions, there are plenty are smarter than me.
Make the long story short, let deal with your issue.
Firstly, make sure you login as administrator (not a guest) in XP, go and download the iTunes from here

How to login as administrator, start>control panel>user accounts>click you account to change>change my account type>tick computer administartor
