Photos won't sync to iPod Touch

I have an iPod Touch 8GB with iOS version 4.2.1 and I'm having an issue with syncing photos. I try to sync a folder of pictures and the statue bar area where iTunes tells you what its doing, it goes through syncing, backing up, and says optimizing pictures, and goes through them quick but then give me this error:
Some of your photos, including photo "XXXXXX.jpg". Were not copied to iPod "iPod Name" Because they cannot be display on the Ipod.
What should I do?

The following document is a good place to start with that one:

After I updated to iTunes 9.0.3.15 I tried to sync my iPod Touch. All went well until this error message popped up; "Some of the items in the iTunes Library, including "headstrong", were not copied to the iPod "Sam's iPod" because you are not authorized to play them on this computer." ok so I go and authorize it type in my PW and Apple ID correctly and get this error message!; "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The file or directory is corrupt and unreadable. There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please Try Again later."
I run diagnostics and this is what I got and pass all the tests except for the CD in the drive, could anyone please help? It won't allow me to sync any apps to my iTouch and half of my purchased music.

Are you on a Mac? I found this [Type -36 error (I/O Errors (bummers)|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2433]
This file is having difficulty while either reading from the drive or writing to the drive. The file
may have been improperly written data to the drive or the hard drive or disk may be damaged.
This is almost always indicative of a media error (hard error on the disk). Sometimes (rarely) it is transient.
Solutions: Try copying the file to another drive. Use a disk recovery software, such as Disk First Aid to examine the disk. You can try rebooting with all extensions off. Once in a while this will allow you to read the data. The file in question should be restored from a backup that was stored on a different disk. Regular backups can reduce the time to recover from this error.
Hope that helps.

Updated apps won't sync to Ipod Touch

I've been having this problem for a while now. Whenever I update an app that I already have, the updated app won't sync to my touch and I get an error message. However, new apps downloaded from itunes work fine, they just are not current. Any help?

- Have you tried a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- NextI would restore from backup.

Photos Won't Start on iPod Touch [2.0 Firmware]

I've got a strange issue with my iPod Touch (running 2.0 firmware). It appears that my 'Photos' preinstalled application won't start anymore. Since upgrading to 2.0, I hadn't sync'd any photos to my device and when I launched the app, it would just tell me that I had no photos as expected.
Recently I was reading an email and 5 photos were attached and I wanted to save them to the iPod, so I clicked Save All. After I clicked the button there was a delay (~1min) and I crashed back to the springboard. I say crashed because I didn't receive an error or confirmation message that the pics had been saved.
I then attempted to launch Photos and now whenever I do so, a blank list appears and then I crash back to springboard. Not really sure what's going on here and I'm thinking I may have to restore my device.
Anyone else run into similar behavior?
-D

Hmmm.. that's an interesting problem you have. While I originally thought that we might have the same problem, I think we're just showing the same symptoms. I went ahead and pulled the trigger by using the Restore function. Sure enough.. soon as Restoration was complete, I tapped the Photos button and as expected, the "No Gallery" or "No Photos" picture (I forget what exactly it states) was viewable.
I lost all my data, but everything is still on my local machine so this was a viable option for me.
I'm not sure if this will help you, but when I used the Restore function, I didn't opt to Make a Backup.. I just sync'd all my content manually after restoration. Maybe try that..

Portrait photos will not sync to iPod Touch!

Hello-
When I recently synced my iPhoto library to my 1st generation iPod Touch, it would not sync SOME recent portrait-orientation photos. The photos not synced appeared to be only very recent ones (within the last week or so). Older events and imports had their portrait photos synced. Please help!

Plug in you iPT to your computer. Via iTunes, your iPod device -> click the Photos tab. See which iPhoto folder you are syncing with. It may not be including your Last Imported folder.

AIFF files won't sync to ipod touch

I have a bunch of AIFF files that work fine in iTunes, but they won't transfer to the iPod Touch. I've even run the "create AIFF version" item in the Advanced menu, and the resulting file still won't sync. All MP3 files are syncing just fine.

I figured it out. The sample rate was too high for ipod. I had bought the music files in flac format, which come in something like 99000khz rate. I had imported them into Audacity and exported as AIFF -- assuming that that's all I had to do. Afterall, all references I found mention only the format, not the sample rate. I finally got one to sync when I changed the sample rate within Audacity to 48000khz and exported again.

ITunes On New Computer Won't Sync To iPod Touch

A couple months ago I got a new laptop. I was able to transfer all my songs over from the iPod Touch (5th Generation) to the computer successfully (including plays w/ a program I downloaded). I made changes to the library since then (deleting some songs and adding some new ones). Today for the first time since I got the new laptop, I tried to sync iTunes (updated) to the iPod 3 times but it wouldn't make any changes. I've yet to update the iOS (my iPod is 2 iOS's behind). If anyone can help, thank you in advance.

You can only sync with one computer/iTunes library. To make this your syncing computer:

If ll the synced media like apps and music are on the new computer, just backup to iTunes and restore from that backup

ITunes Won't Sync with iPod Touch

Since migrating to my new iMac my old iPod Touch would not sync with iTunes. After following the articles on reinstalling the mobile device support I found that the iPod would only sync with iTunes once before it was necessary to reinstall again. Not very helpful.
Anyway, the solution is here! Run software update, as there is an iPhone SDK patch ready and waiting for you. Downloaded and restarted the iMac, and hey presto we have an iPod again, hoorah.

Bingo! Worked for me too (running Software Update and installing the iPhone SDK update).
I'm also staggered that this isn't explicitly mentioned as a likely fix in the general troubleshooting page for this connection problem on this site. As someone who diligently -- but manually -- downloads all patches and updates, I never use Software Update, and yet I could not find the iPhone SDK update available to download manually.
Background: my 2nd gen iPod Touch refused to be recognised by iTunes after upgrading my machine to Snow Leopard. iPod recognised by iPhoto and in iTunes on another Mac. Tried every troubleshooting item on the list at:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747
Notice that the suggestion to try Software Update is way down the list and is easy to disregard if you prefer to update your machine manually, as I do.
Given the number of users with this problem (I've read through dozens of posts looking for a fix for a good three weeks now) you'd think someone at Apple would reorder the troubleshooting list or at least highlight this option. Hopefully anyone else with this issue will stumble upon this thread, as I did, and get a happy result.

Itunes 11 won't sync to Ipod touch 2nd gen on windows 8

2nd gen Ipod Touch 16gb. It will not sync to Itunes 11.0.2.26 on Windows 8. Itunes can see the device since it appears in my list of devices. When I attempt to sync it, it goes thru the sthe 3 steps.
1. Preparing to sync
2. Waiting to sync
3, Finished syncing
I do not receive any errors but no music is sync'd to the Ipod.
I have updated the Ipod to the latest and greatest software. I have uninstalled and re-installed Itunes. I have reset the Ipod to factory default
I have performed the numerous possible resolutions posted on the discussion boards but nothing has resolved the problem.

Do you have the right boxes checked? See:

New apps won't sync to iPod touch

So, i downloaded some new apps and am having a new problem - i check them to have them sync from iTunes to my iPod touch, but after clicking 'apply' and watching the new apps "installing", the app then unchecks itself and is nowhere to be found on my iPod. I tryed restoring the iPod but that didn't help. there are no restrictions set on my iPod either. am i doing something wrong? iTunes says my software is up to date...

If you have the latest version of iTunes the Check for Update in the Summary pane in iTunes under your iPod should say 4.2.1 is available if you have a 2G iPod. However, from you having only iOS 2.2.1, you probably have a 1G iPod. You can identify your iPod here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353
If you have a 1G iPod you can only go as far iOS 3.1. To get that go here. It is a paid update:

Apps won't sync on iPod touch

I can see them in iTunes, but they won't sync on the device. Any thoughts?

I would try redownloading the apps directly to your iPod by:

If you follow the instructions you will not be charged again.
Then try transferring the the apps to the computer by:

ITunes won't sync with iPod Touch after factory reset

I recently bought a used iPod Touch 3rd Generation 32GB and I erased and reset all settings on the iPod. It told me on the iPod to hook it up to iTunes, so when I got home that's what I did but I can't use my iPod on iTunes. The only thing that pops up is upload images which it can't because it is a 3rd Generation iTouch.
HELP PLEASE

Start with some basic steps:
- Restart both your computer and iPod
- Try another usb cable
- Try another usb port in the computer
- Make sure iTunes is up to date
- Temporarily disable any security software and/or firewalls
For further troubleshooting steps have a read through the article below based on your computers operating system:

My Audiobooks show in my Books folder and won't sync to ipod touch

I have a number of audiobooks purchased from iTunes Store. Previously on iTunes (Windows PC) these showed in the left pane under Audiobooks. At some point this folder became Books, and also includes some .epub type ebooks. This did not stop the audiobooks syncing as audio files to my iPod though.
However I have recently upgraded my PC to Windows 7, in order that I could get iTunes 10.6, in order that I could my iPod up to IOS5.1!!! (old Windows Vista would not update iTunes). Following this?
Now though, when I sync, the audiobooks dont sync across. The ebooks do but not the audio files. In effect the audiobooks are in the wrong folder, they should be in an Audiobooks folder but there isnt one any more. I tried to create one under File>Library>Organise Library but it wont do it, the option is greyed out. I note when viewing through Windows Explorer that the files are actually in a Windows sub-folder marked Audiobooks, they have the right file extensions etc.
So, why do they show up under Books? Why dont I have an Audiobooks folder? How can I recreate one and move my audiobook files there? Help please!

Audiobooks now sync from the Books tab when your device is connected. If you have a small screen you may need to scroll down the page to see the options.

New iMac, now contacts and cals won't sync to iPod Touch

After migrating from a G4/Tiger to an iMac/Snow Leopard on Friday, I have experienced many keychain and permissions-related problems. I have been able to solve all except one. It involves iTunes not syncing Info (contacts, cals, etc). I have tried everything under the sun and still cannot make it work. I have compiled a detailed account of the problem with screen shots here:
http://bit.ly/7YmE4S
If anyone has ideas, please post. I have not been able to arrange a support call with apple yet because it keeps getting rejected and I am told to try again later.

I set up a new standard user to see if iSync problem was solved and it was. Remember, I could not open iSync AT ALL in my current user account. I erased my iPod and synced it with the new user and it worked. At that point, I got fully committed to transferring my files over to the new user instead of piddling with more solutions that might or might not work for this and a variety of other issues that came up during migration. (Nothing against your suggestion which I am sure is a very good one...I am just tired of jumping through hoops with no results at this point and thought a fresh start was in order.)
Anyway, all seems well now. The new user account seems to have cleared everything up except for the printing, but that is due to apple dropping appletalk support, so I will have to tackle that in a different way. Transferring my files to a new user was not as laborious as I thought because most apps have export/import. I am still looking for a way to change permission to large batches of files/folders that are nested. "Apply to enclosed items" does not do the trick.
Thanks again for the assistance.
