New Ipod Touch 64GB failed due to freezing Itunes upgrade

I uninstalled itunes to attempt to re-install version 10.2 as required for my new Ipod. Each time it freezes at 10% Prior to this, all other Ipods were funstioning properly. Mssg read iTunes64setup.exe fails---always at 10%.
System restore was ineffective as well. My entire library si, of course, gone.
How can I get Itunes re-installed? I have never had a problem before and have dozens of movies, books and music. Any guidance is appreciated. Thought I would check with some better experienced people before I really screw things up even more. Is it possible that all my purchases are now gone forever?
Thank you in advance, shel

If the iPod came with iOS 5 you can activae/set it up via wif. From the Users Guide:
Setting up iPod touch
To set up and activate iPod touch, just turn it on and follow the onscreen instructions that step
you through the setup process, including:
Connecting to a Wi-Fi network
Â
Signing in with or creating a free Apple ID
Â
Setting up iCloud
Â
Turning on recommended features such as Location Services and Find My iPod
Â
Activating iPod touch
Â
If not iOS 5 you ned to connect it to a computer with internet access and iTunes.

An unknown error occurred -54 in itunes this happened after i'd bought new iPod touch and synced it to my iTunes can you not have two iPods on iTunes account??

Please help i bought a new ipod touch and synced it to my itunes account so i had both ipod touch's on it and now i have an error flashing at me and i don't know what to do??

== Error -54 ==
From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
First, try simply restarting your computer.

TS1538 i cant get my new ipod touch 7 to be recognized in itunes? Please help!

I cant my new Ipod Touch 7 to be recognized in Itunes? Please help! I'm trying to sync my music and book files with the new Ipod buts it not even listed under devices. I have an old Ipod that I was using prior to this one that shows up under devices but not the new one. Im only promted to transfer from what appears to be my old device?

Alright, right after posting my question I figured it out. I plugged my iPod into one of the USB ports in the front of the MacPro and it worked like a charm. Now the problem is, what is wrong with the two ports in the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen? That I can't figure out clearly. The USB connection from it to the MacPro is connected.

New Ipod touch is linked to laptop - laptop Itunes is open - Ipod has wifi - ipod says 'loading' when I go to itunes but that its it -thats all that happens - it wont connect to itunes or app store. I have windows 7 and latest version of itunes.

What I do to get this new ipod touch to open or syn with itunes and get some music in the device?

how long have you had your ipod? mine did the same but after a while you need to get a new one because of the battery...

I have a brand new ipod touch and it wont connect to itunes or my computer!!??

I have a brand new ipod touch however when I connect it to my computer, itunes does not recognise it and neither does my computer. The drivers have downloaded and are showing working. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes as discussed in support centre however nothing seems to work. The ipod itself just has the connect to the computer on the screen, is fully charged and when plugged in a little lock sign comes up for a second or two above the itunes icon!!! Let me know if you have any further suggestions please.

Thanx for you suggestions, I used my old xp laptop...update software and my ipod connected however the memory is not large enough to hold my itunes library so I could see it was not the cable or the ipod at fault.
I have tried to connect to my vista laptop again and have tried all of the suggestions in troubleshooting again...I have even upgraded to windows 7 to see if that cleared the problem....and....my computer has located my ipod but is only recognising it as a digital camera so back to the drawing board...
Please have you any other suggestions???

New IPod Touch will not show up on iTunes

Hello,
I just purchased an iPod Touch for my son. When we turned it on, it asked to connect to iTunes. I then started iTunes and was told to update it, which I did, after which I connected the IPod. iTunes would not recognize the iPod Touch. We then uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, with the same problem. So effectively I now have a new iPod Touch in the first phase of getting it to work.
I've checked the drivers, and they are fine
I've checked the Apple services and they are running fine
I've shut down nearly all programs that commence on startup, and the iPod will still not show up
I've used all USB ports on my computer, still no response.
I've rebooted the computer numerous times, it still does not show up.
Thanks in advance for any advise that you can give.
Is there a known problem with Vista???

Brand new Ipod Touch can't been seen in Itunes

Hi there,
I hope someone can help as this is driving me mad!
I have just received a brand new Ipod TOuch but when I connect it to my PC per the installation instructions I get the following message "Itunes could not connect to the Iphone because an invalid response was received from the device"
I have uninstalled all Apple products from my PC and reinstalled most up to-date version of Itunes.
I have tried different USB ports.
I have stopped and re-started the "Apple mobile device" and "Ipod Service" services.
I have done all of the above in various combinations and re-started my PC numerous times.
None of this makes any difference.
The Ipod does not appear in my "My Computer" but when go into device manager on "My Computer" it is listed there so it would appear that my PC can see the Ipod.
I tried it on another laptop and a brand new installation of Itunes sees the Ipod fine, no problems.
However I have previously used an Ipod Nano on this PC and this I think is what is causing the problems.
I have listed below the content of the Itunes Diagnostics file in the hope that that will help. I see that it does mention the Ipod Nano previously used.

Okay, I had this same issue as soon as I updated to iTune 8.2. Someone gave me an idea about renaming a certain file, which I thought worked for a little bit. The issue came back and I am back in the same boat!
The bad news is to find a version of iTune 8.1. Uninstall everything and then reinstall iTune 8.1. This has worked for some; however, some have even had to restore their iPod Touchs!
I am giving in and doing this tonight. I waited as long as I could for the fix. My wife has an iPhone and we have NOT upgraded her iTunes to 8.2 because I have read iPhone users having a similar issue. If her iPhone died, then that would be ultimate deal breaker.

New iPod Touch 64GB not syncing photos

Hi, I am really excited to have have just bought my 2nd iPod (ran out of space on my older, 2nd Gen, 16GB iPod). This one is a 3rd Gen 64GB iPod. I have spent a ton of hrs transferring all my music, movies, contacts, fave sites and links, Kindle and B&N books, calendars etc etc etc.
I went to sync my photos today (and I still have 45.97GB of free space right now) and I keep getting an iTunes box pop up and none of my photos sync at all. The message reads: 'Some photos were not copied to the iPod "name blah blah" because there was not enough room on your computer to hold optimized versions of your photos and albums'. Well, none of the photos were copied, not 'some'....
I have been browsing the forums for tips. Tried deleting the ipod cache files, syncing less photos, creating a specific folder in which to hold the photos I want to sync. Still getting that message. It comes up as soon as I try to sync now.
Please, any advice/tips/help would be appreciated. I would hate to have to go through all the hours I have spent on putting everything on my new 64GB Touch if I have a dud here! Thanks.

I see what's going on now. I was using my backup drive to access the photos and it's almost all used up so it wouldn't do whatever the heck it's supposed to do so I took them off the computer's hard drive instead. Now have to transfer a ton of photos from my backup drive to the hard drive and sync the rest of the photos. Phew!!! Now, I can enjoy my new big girl 64GB iPod!

BRAND NEW IPOD TOUCH WONT APPEAR IN WINDOWS OR ITUNES

I just bought a brand new 8gb ipod touch and when i plug it into my computer the it lights up and beeps but nothing comes up on itunes or my computer. I have a working ipod video that syncs and is recognized by my computer everytime (even with the usb that came with my touch). I have tried uninstalling and installing itunes and that did nothing. I have had no computer problems to date and that included problems with my usb port. I dont know what else to do. It won't appear in my computer ANYWHERE!!

the usb connections work fine with my other ipod and camera. The computer makes a noise when i plug my new ipod in so i know that its not the usb cable or the port.
I have restored my ipod and when i go to put it into recovery mode it give me and error message (#1611) and wont let me continue.
when i called apple they said that, that error means its a hardware issue but I exchanged my ipod yesterday and i am having the EXACT same problem so its not a hardware issue. The apple associate then told me to disable all my antivirus software because it could be somehow blocking the apple mobile device thing but nothing is working still and i am back at sqaure one.
Please if you have any more suggestions. I am sure that there is just some setting somewhere on my computer that is off. is there a windows firewall setting i should be disabling?

New iPod Touch 3G does not appear in iTunes Devices

My iPod touch 3G is out of warranty but brand new / never used until today. I connected it with sync USB cable and opened iTunes but "Devices" did not appear on the iTunes menu so I cannot even register the iPod in order to download music. I know the cable and iTunes [latest version] on my computer are OK because when i plugged in my friends iPod everything was OK -'Devices' appears in iTunes.

Welcome to the discussions,
make sure it is charged and try to connect in recovery mode, shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Have you Authorised your Computer...
Open iTunes and from the Menu Bar select Store...
From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
