Not wanted music on I pod touch not showing in itunes on pc (win7)

Hi all - I am a newbie here and to all things Apple - so please be gentle.
My problem is:
a)      I have a lot of compilation albums and synched to Ipod touch via Itunes 10.5
b)      Many albums were transffered over and appear as multiple albums containing single tracks (all with the same album title)
c)      Some I managed to group together using "Get info" and selelcting "part of compilation" option
d)      I still have some that remain as single track albums and won't combine.
e)      I have tried highliting the ipod device and deleting the individual tracks in itunes - so now they do not appear in itunes - but after I synch again
         the tracks are still on the ipod!!!
I have tried almost every option I can find to remove these single track albums from my ipod, but the **** things will not disappear !!!
If anybody can help me, I would be very gratefull - if I can provide any further info to help please contact me.
Many thanks in advance

If they are iTunes purchased music then go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn off Show All.
Next
Try:
- 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

- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

I have transferred my music to new computer but music is not showing in iTunes - although is on the computer as if I select a song from the folder it will play that song via iTunes. How can I get my music to show?

I have transferred my music to a new computer following the instructions carefully but for whatever reason the music does not show on iTunes on the new computer. The music is there as I can access it via My Computer and if I select a song it will show in iTunes and play - however I can not do this for every single track! Can anyone suggest something I have done wrong????

Media was moved via external hard disk, and I think I moved the iTunes Media folder after consolidating it.

My ipod touch is not showing in itunes therefore, not syncing. I've gone through the trouble shooting steps about 5 times.

Did you try here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
Next try on another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

My iPod Touch does not show on itunes

When I plug in my iTouch to the computer and open iTunes, the device does not show on iTunes. I tried restarting the computer and reconnect the usb drive, but it still does not show. The device is recognized on My Computer so I think something is wrong with iTunes.

Ipod songs ratings are not showing in Itunes (manually managed)

Hello,
Ipod songs ratings are not showing in Itunes, however I can see the ratings in my iPod Touch 4 (that is manually managed). I have an iPod 3 an it works. Why?
I don't want to sync anything, I'm looking the songs that are in the iPod through iTunes and the rating information is missing.
Any ideas?
Thanks & Regards
SU

Hi SU
Hope this helps.
When I connect my iPod touch to iTunes on my PC - under library there is a Music folder and under iPod there is a Music folder. Which music folder isn't showing the track rating?
If the Library Music folder isn't showing ratings then see A) Updating Ratings in Library Music
If the iPod Music folder isn't showing ratings then see B) Seeing Ratings in iPod Music
I have 20000 tracks in iTunes and 5000 tracks on my iPod which I am rating as a listen to them. 1000 have ratings 4000 have none.
A) Updating Ratings in Library Music
This is on a PC. When you manually manage music on your iPod the ratings you assign on your iPod aren't automatically synced to iTunes but it is easy to do it manually and only takes a few minutes.
1) in iTunes on a PC click Music under iPOD, sort your tracks by the Rating column and select 5 star tracks.
2) Click File > New Playlist From Selection and call it 5 STAR. This creates a new playlist on your iPod.
3) Right click the 5 STAR playlist and click Export. I save the playlist export file to my Desktop.
4) Click File > Library > Import Playlist > navigate to the location you exported the playlist to (in my case Desktop), select 5 STAR and import. You may get a warning saying some tracks don't exist, you get this if you change track info in your iTunes library, it'll omit these tracks from the playlist your creating. 5 STAR playlist will appear under iTunes Playlists.
5) Select 5 STAR under iTunes Playlists and you will see your 5 star tracks from your iPod but the Rating will be blank. Select all tracks, right click, select Rating and then *****. All the tracks will now be rated 5 star.
6) Right click iTunes Playlist 5 STAR and select Delete, this won't delete your tracks.
7) Right click iPOD Playlist 5 STAR and select Delete, this won't delete your tracks.
8) You can repeat this process with your 4 star stracks then 3 star, etc.
9) an optional step. Once I've rated my tracks I delete them from my iPod.
I do this process every few weeks when I've got a reasonable batch of tracks to update ratings in iTunes.
B) Seeing Ratings in iPod Music
In iTunes iPod Music my tracks are sorted by rating and I mistakenly thought the rating column is blank. I clicked on the Name column to resort and saw some of the tracks had ratings. I then noticed that when I clicked on iPod music it didn't display tracks from the top of the list (my 5 star tracks) which I expected but half way down (0 star tracks) which is why I thought there was a problem. So now when I look at my iPod music in iTunes I scroll up the list to check they are showing ratings before doing A) above.
Regards

Ipod not showing in Itunes and Windows 7

The Fix
I uninstalled everything that was Apple related and reinstalled Itunes with no loss to my data.
Once reinstalled, both the ipod is now showing in itunes and everything is working fine now.
I hope this helps anyone else out with the same problem of an ipod not charging, not showing in Windows 7 and not showing in itunes.

Glad that it works but if you read the threads, usually that is tried and suggested/recommended, of course, but fails to solve the problems.
Also, Devices and Printers is a good place to start and look there to even see if Widnows detects iPod but also has an error exclamation and "error."
I'll say this, Apple Safari and iTunes and iPod support software, can be the most buggy sofware I use on Windows with more problems and issues. Shame.
Tried to or accidently pluged iPod Touch 4G into one of my other PCs and had issue when I brought it back over. Use of inferior quality 3rd party cable might also be blamed.
iTunes video playback, movies and music video, would hang, freeze, go into a "wait chain" (better with Windows 8 Dev Preview, but that is PRE-BETA!).
Apple Common Support Software issues, which 2.0 version can be a problem. Used by iTunes and Safari. Seems like iTunes was better before installing Safari. Two PCs and they are almost 200% identical as can be, but Safari would hang.
May need to remove Apple folders in AppData (move to safe place) if there is a problem there.

Podcast artwork does not show in ITunes store

I recently began producing a music podcast http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/felony-buddha/id375837423.
I am using blogger http://www.felonybuddha.com and feedburner http://www.felonybuddha.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss.
Initially I did not have the artwork url in SmartCast but I updated Smartcast
on 06/04/2010 with this url http://4.bp.blogspot.com/PuXcBmmd7sY/TAmrnudmrHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/W8kCV6S3N2U/s1600/iStock000010405007XSmall.jpg. I sent a Ping but the podcast artwork still does not show in Itunes store.
What am I doing wrong? Thank you for your help.

The Feedburner feed is probably OK: it does have the declaration and the correct image reference.. As there are no line returns separating the tags it appears either as one or two long lines or as a slab of text, so it's very difficult to read, and you might want to go through your original feed if you can, and put some line returns in.
Assuming it to be OK, you have two possibilities: both involve you editing the original feed.
For clarity let's label the feeds;
Feed 1 is your original, http://www.felonybuddha.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss
Feed 2 is the Feedburner-generated one, http://feeds.feedburner.com/felonybuddha/MhvA
Method 1: amend feed 1 to contain the necessary tags. The top section of the feed should read:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<rss xmlns:atom='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'
xmlns:openSearch='http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearchrss/1.0/'
xmlns:georss='http://www.georss.org/georss'
xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' version='2.0'
xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd" version="2.0">
<channel>
Then in the top section of the feed, after 'channel' and before the first 'item' tag, add:
<itunes:image href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/PuXcBmmd7sY/TAmrnudmrHI/AAAAAAAAAAM/W8kCV6S3N2U/s1600/iStock000010405007XSmall.jpg" />
making sure you don't get this inside another tag (and there must be no line breaks within this). There are still other tags missing, which though they aren't essential, ought really to be there.
Method 2: this might be preferable - redirect iTunes to Feed 2. Feedburner does add a lot of garbage to the feed (intended for compatibility with other rss readers) but they shouldn't cause any problems; however there are some caveats, see below. The method:
You will need to add the following tag to Feed 1, after the 'channel' tag and before the first 'item' tag:
<itunes:new-feed-url>http://feeds.feedburner.com/felonybuddha/MhvA</itunes:new-feed-url>
Before doing this you should read this Apple Tech Note just so that you are completely clear what you are doing.
Re-upload the feed and leave it there until iTunes has changed to the new feed - this may take some days. To check whether it's changed, go to the Store page for your podcast, click on the 'Subscribe' button, go to the 'Podcasts' section in the sidebar, and click on the 'i' button on the extreme right of the line for your overall podcast (not the episode). The pane which pops up contains the feed iTunes is using.
Caveats:
Make sure you get the URL exactly right in the redirect. If you make a mistake *you will not be able to get it back* once iTunes has redirected.
Be aware that once you have transferred to Feed 2 you cannot edit that feed directly, only the feed you submit to Feedburner. This may possibly mean that if you later want to redirect to another feed you won't be able to.

On an iPod Nano 2G, the iPod will not show in iTunes

Using an iPod Nano 2 G, when I plug it into a Mac, the iPod will not show in iTunes. The iPod will charge, but will not sync. This happens across multiple Mac's, so the issue seems to be the Nano, not the computer(s). The iPod will actually show for about 2 seconds in the left sidebar, then it disappears. Any suggestions about how to either fix this, or maybe how to restore the iPod's software. The iPod otherwise seems to be working correctly, i.e. will play music, etc. we have tried switching ports, cables and computers, same results.

Did you do everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Including
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
Do other USB devices work on the computer/USB port??

Ipod Nano icon not showing in itunes and I've tried everything suggested

My ipod nano is not showing in itunes and I've tried everything that has been suggested by Apple. I updated iTunes, I've reset the ipod. I just want to download my songs! Help! Please and Thank you.

Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
