Problems syncing my iPod Touch after I updated to iOS 8.1

Hi,
Yesterday, I tried to sync my iPod Touch with iTunes. It was taking a considerable longer time then it generally takes. Finally, it said there not enough room on my iPod, but I should have had more than enough... I had about 5 gigs available. After I began taking music, videos etc off, I found out that the other content was taking up about 30 gigs. I ended up resetting the iPod. Now it's having problems syncing music, movies & tv.

Problems syncing my ipod touch 4th gen

I am having problems syncing my ipod touch 4th gen to itunes. I keep getting an error message stating iTunes could not back up the iPod "name of ipod" because an error occured. My daughter and I both use the same computer to sync our ipod's and this problem only occurs when I try to sync mine. It works fine syncing hers and I have tried to uninstall iTunes and reinstall it. Please help

Try placing the iPod backup file in a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new file. It is located here:
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

HT1386 having problems sync my ipod touch saying error (-81) does anybody know what to do

having problems sync my ipod touch to my itunes on windows xp

I have no idea. It is not listed in any App articles and a Google search did not even find a hit for the error number.
All I can suggest is:
- 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.
- Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

Problems syncing the iPod touch

My iPod Touch synced fine at first, but now all I get is an error message
"The iPod (xxx)cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to." What am I doing wrong? I have tried resetting it, restarting it. Now tempted to 'relocate' it into the garbage .... Help!

I am having a similar problem with my iPod Touch. I have a fairly full iPod with 16Gb. capacity. I sync calendars, contacts music video and podcasts. For some reason when I include my selection of photos I get "This iPod cannot be synced. Unknown error -50."
If I leave the photos out it seems to work. Also, I have tried a restore, and now I have lost my notes ( I have the January software update)
Any ideas what is going wrong?

I am having problems syncing my ipod touch. I keep getting this message. iTunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later

When I try to sync my ipod touch 5. I get the following message. iTunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. Reconnect or try again later.
I get the same message when I try to sync my iPhone 4s
Should I uninstall/reinstall itunes and if so should it be all the programmes associated with Apple or just iTunes

IPod Touch won't update from iOS 3.1.3 to iOS 4

My second generation IPod touch won't upgrade from iOS 3.1.3 to iOS4. Everytime I plug it into the computer it tells me there's an update. I'll click theupdate and it will start backing up my files but it never gets beyond this point. What is the best way to fix this?

The following lists the common error messages and their resolution.

Without more information that is all we can do. You can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod touch will not update from IOS version 6.1.3 to IOS version 7

Are the previous ipod touch devices not compatible? An ipad the same age updated just fine.

Only the iPod 5th generation can update to iOS 7. If you have an earlier model then you cannot update to iOS 7.

HT4623 Can the iPod Touch 3rd Generation update to IOS 7? If so, how do i update it?

My iPod Touch (3rd Gen.) has IOS 5.1.1, but when I try to wirelessly update, it keeps saying my software is up to date. Can someone please help me update to IOS 7.0.2?

There is nothing you can do! . . . If you wan't iOS7, you must purchase iPod Touch (5th generation).

Help with changes on ipod touch after OS update

things are different after the latest OS update to my second generation ipod touch. how do i fix these?
-on my recently added smartplaylist, the songs do not show up in order of how they appear on my itunes, in last added order. i already did the copy to play order and synced it
-on my cover flow, there are two of one album and i have no idea why! its fine when its on the regular music part vertically, but horizontally, not. ive checked everything about it. before the update everything was fine. but i even deleted it and put it back on and its still showing up as a double album with every single song and everything the same
-lastly, on the cover flow, unlike the last OS, every song is part of the cover flow even though i do not give it an album name. but only some songs do that. how do i get the singles out of the cover flow.
if anyone has any answer, id really appreciate it. THANKS!

More things wrong after the update!
-My wifi is weak in my house and it's always been best there too
-it says I watched tv shows 4 times in the middle of the night which I didn't
-and before if I were playing a game with sound I could double click the home button and the music player would come up so i can play music instead. But it won't do that anymore. It will only do it if music is playing on the iPod where there is no other sound going on.
Help!

Problems Syncing New iPod Touch 5g

Ever since I got my new iPod a few days ago I have been having an extremely hard time syncing my iPod. The first time I went to plug it in to sync, everything worked perfectly and all my songs and videos from my previous iPod were on my new one. Now I try to put new songs onto it from some cd's I got and other stuff, but it just will not work. When I plug my iPod into my computer with the cord that came with it, an error message pops up onto my computer saying "USB Device not Recognized" so of course with that, iTunes does not recognize it either. The few times that I do plug my iPod in and iTunes recognizes it, it will sync for only a minute or so if even, and then an error will occur and the "USB Device no Recognized" sign will pop up once again. I decided after trying to get songs onto my new iPod and also after syncing a few times saw that it was putting multiples of my purchased songs onto my iPod that I would restore it and try it again, I've had no luck. This is beginning to get very frustrating because I have over 1,000 songs that I would like to put onto my iPod and I don't know what to do. Could someone possibly tell me if this has been happening to more than just me. How can I fix this? Also, sometimes when I plug my iPod in it will say to connect it to the 2.0 USB for it to work faster, the problem with this is that I have no idea where it is on my computer and I've tried plugging it into all of the USB outlets on my computer that I know of. If someone could please tell me what to do, it would save me, I don't know how much longer I can put up with this without throwing my computer out the window.

- First I would do:
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
- Next try on anoterh computer to help determine if y have a computer or iPod/cable problem
- Also try another cable if you have one. Some 5G iPod where shipped with defective cables.
- It cold also be a computer problem. The iPod requires USB 2 ports.
- Does your computer have USB 2 portsd? How old is the iPod.
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Problems syncing my iPod touch.

Help! I recently got a touch 4th generation iPod. This is my first touch and Im a little stuck.
Whenever I download new music onto my library it works fine but when I try to plug in my iPod to sync it a drop down menu comes up and I have to add all the music to my iPod before I can sync it and everytime I get on I have to re-do my whole library. Sometimes it wont even let me transfer the music to my ipod.
How can I get rid of it so that I can sync my iPod directly with my library? Anybody else had this problem before? I love my touch but this is frustrating.

How do you restore your ipod touch after an update

After updating my ipod touch with IOS 6, i am not able to get my ipod to get past a screen that says to pluc into itunes via a usb cable. I plugged in and still have not been able to get past the screen. I ran through ipod troubleshooting, made sure I updated itunes and can not determine why I it won't get past the above screen. Thank you for any assistance.
