I received an ipod touch 5th gen for Christmas. The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my touch have created ghost songs. They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play. I can't delete them

The first songs i've downloaded and synced with my new touch have created ghost songs. They are only on my computer in itunes once but appear on my ipod twice, one copy that won't play. I can't delete them. I've tried unticking all the music that was on the ipod via itunes and re-syncing, which in theory should delete all music from my ipod. It does except for the 5 ghost songs.   So at present I have no music on ipod except the 5 ghost songs.   Has anyone got any ideas how I can get rid of these?
I had no problems with my ipod touch 4th, which I had for years.   Any help would be great.

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Can I put my ipod on a computer that already has another ipod on it without doing any damage?

My ipod got the message "iTunes has deteced an ipod that appears to be corrupted......"
I did everything suggested and nothing helped. My ipod was working perfectly prior to my attaching it to the computer, which itunes didn't recognize.
I reset everything, the ipod is now empty, and still the computer won't recognize it.
Can I connect this to another computer that already has an ipod associated with it without causing any problems to the owner's ipod or the music libarary?
If that computer recognizes the ipod, then my problem lies in my computer and not the ipod.
Thanks

It should work because I have 2 iPods connected to my iTunes and everything syncs perfect most of the time and with no corrupted sign, maybe it's your computer. iTunes is'nt the best either so it may also be iTunes that has the problem.

How to connect iPod Classic to bluetooth dongle?

how to connect iPod Classic to bluetooth dongle?

You would need to make sure the dongle supports the same Bluetooth profiles that are supported by your car's stereo system which is commonly the A2DP profile. So first figure out what profiles are supported by the car's stereo system.

I want to change the computer that I sync my ipod to. How do I do that without having to download all my apps again

My computer is really slow, so I want to change the computer that I sync my ipod to. What is the easiest way to change computers and get all my apps, music, pics, books etc. to the new computer for syncing?

Assuming that there is enough storage space on your iPod to hold all of your songs, the most direct way would be to combine all of the song files from your various computers to the computer you wish to use as your main library and sync all. If you don't still have all of the files that are currently on your iPod for what ever reason, there are programs that can copy non-store purchases from iPod to computer, which will allow you to follow my first suggestion. Search this forum for recommendations of which programs will work for your setup. iTunes Store purchases can be downloaded again if you have the log-in and password, but there is a limited number of times you can do that. If you have run out of authorizations, you can de-authorize all devices once per year. There is more to this than I can tell you now, so search the forum for that info too.
One thing to be careful of is that iTunes may ask you when you first hook up your iPod to a computer that is not the same as the last computer it synced to is whether you want to sync to it now. If you say yes, it will delete all of the content on your iPod and sync what ever you have iTunes set up to sync. You will want to say no to this prompt if you see it unless you have first gathered all of your song files into the new library.

Why cant i download from one computer that has internet

why cant i download from one computer that has internet and use it on my other pc that has no internet,,, computer (a) has been working fine with our ipod,and we have about 4gigs of our music,,,but now we have a pc (b) that has the web, and we have music that we have paid for and cant download it.. the message pops up and says.. would you like to replace your Ipod libary with the one from this computer , we say no so we dont lose our music... we should be able to use the pcs in our house for our ipod i thought. ????????

If you use more than one computer, you'll need to use manual updates instead of automatic sync.
Here's an article from Apple regarding using your iPod on multiple machines:
Using your iPod on Multiple computers.

Following two changes to my computer it is only my iPod classic which has my full library of tunes on it - how can I transfer these back to the computer?

Hello, Ray.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There are a couple options available to you to transfer purchased media to your computer. Below, I have included a couple articles that outline this process.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
Please note that this feature works only for items that were purchased on the iTunes Store. Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your iPod to the iTunes library.

How do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer

how do I make it so that the one computer that has the main itunes account on it be used on other computers, when it comes to backing up phones and not deleting data off of phone that isnt on that computer itunes becasse its all on the one main computer. Baiscally the problem is that one comuter and one account has always been sued for eey persons itunes. Now if we want to be able to backup and use itunes on our own computers fro our iphones and such, how will all he data that is on our phones not be deleted once its plugged into a new computer? Also, is theere a way to get all the stuff on thw current itunes onto each computer, via differtn account name?

option discovered in preferences. Really this and any feature that moves deletes or edits a users data should as far as possible be OFF BY DEFAULT. It shouldn't by default and without the users specific say do this dangerous and unnecessary thing without even letting the user know what it's doing!!! And then cause me a few hours (as i'm new to mac) searching for the option so as to switch it off. If i hadn't noticed the status cage declaring that it was copying files then i might never have twigged that this insane thing was occurring. And if i hadn't of noticed i would have been left maintaining the contents of the folder i copied the files to, the folder which as far as i was informed and so believed was also the location of the music files i was playing. How does Apple justify this 'genius' piece of software non-design? Surely it will hurt no one if this was off by default for new users - overall at least i dare say it would cause a lot less distress in the future for the unsuspecting public at large. Thanks for the support.

Connect ipod classic (gen 4) to a TV

Tried connecting ipod classic (gen 4) to Panasonic flatscreen TV. I get only sound. Same with a friends ipod. Followed instructions using AV cables.
Been looking at this for a day now.
Anyone have a similar problem or know a solution?
Regards. T

Do you have a 4th gen iPod or an iPod Classic? They're not the same and the instructions will be different.
If you need help identifying your iPod, try here:

Then, if you don't have a Classic, you might want to post in the correct forum.
Best of luck.
