Put iPod Touch icons into folders and organized all my apps. iTunes keeps erasing them.

Hi Everyone
   New iPod touch owner. I arranged my icons into folders for all my apps. But everytime I connect to iTunes it erases all my folders. And moves all my icons around. Anyway to tell iTunes or the iPod to not keep erasing all my folders and not to move all my icons around after I have organized them in the way I want.
   Thanks
Happy Summer

Hello Everyone,
    I finally figured it out. Did not know you had to be connected to iTunes and then you can drag icons around, put them into folders, delete any apps you do not want on your iPod Touch and more from within iTunes.
    When you done doing what you want, then iTunes syncs your changes to your iPod Touch. And your apps, icons, folders, will all be the same on your iPod Touch as they appear in your iTunes Library.
Happy Weekend

  • I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. Starting on a new computer now. I can get my music from old computer?

    I am having problems with my music collection, after burning all of my music to the computer I organized it into folders and placed it in the iTunes Folder. As of now i realize this was a mistake. Starting on a new computer now. I cant get my music to transfer from the itunes folder on the old computer? I keep getting error "Can't Read from the source file or disk." Whenever I got to folder properties its always checked read only. But when i play the song it works just fine. Im sure this is just because I added music into itunes folder but is there anyway to fix it?

    WMA files are 'window media audio' files, which is a Microsoft format. If you want to add them to your iTunes library on your Mac then you will need to convert them into a compatible format first. If you still have your windows machine then iTunes for Windows can convert them from WMA to MP3 format : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24158701#24158701
    Or try a search for, for example, 'convert wma to mp3' to find programs to convert them.

    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • HT1430 forgot my ipod touch in the car, and now all it does is brink on and off.. lights up, the apple logo come on but nothing else.. what do i do to reset it??

    Well, i forgot my ipod touch in the car, and it snowed so bad and the temperature drop below zero.  I thought my ipod was just battery dead, but when i charged it, only the Apple logo comes on and then blank screen.  How can i reboot, or reset?? is the battery affected even though the phone wasn't wet??

    As long as no moisture got in it... 1st thing to try is give it a few hours to warm up and fully charge the battery, then see if all is working by turning it on. Cold can effect the function. If still not working try a soft reset. Press and hold both the power and home buttons together until the Apple logo appears, about 15 seconds. Then release both buttons. If that does not work connect to your computer via cable go into iTunes and try Restore from backup. If all else fails, Restore to new. If that doesn't work contact Apple Genius Bar to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck.

  • My iPod Touch is not charging and will not sync with itunes

    My Ipod touch was feeling really hot and then all of a sudden the screen turned white and started flashing with my apps still open but faded and unaccessible. My screen was a blurry like it looks on tv when you lose connection. Then the ipod kept making the charging noise over and over again and wouldn't charge. It then turned off. Then it put itself on the needs to be charged symbol but it was flashing and then it stopped showing up. I have tried everything-youtube, dfu mode,( it wont even sync to itunes) and it still wont turn on after hours of charging. The screen has been black for hours now. I hope somebody can help me. Thanks.

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a reset (both buttons) and connect to computer and try to restore. If screen is still white you very likely have a hardware problems.

  • IPod Touch Not Turning on and IS NOT Detected by iTunes!!!!

    Hello, recently I bought the new iPod Touch 4g! It was all fine and working for about 12 days, but then it started getting really hot and the battery lasted less than an hour while listening to music. I took my iPod Touch in, and a genius told me it was a software problem and I had to do a clean restore (as a new iPod.) Since the clean restore, my iPod has been working fine... until this morning. I had it syncing with my Mac overnight, but when I came to turn it on... I got a black screen... nothing. I unplugged the iPod and tried to turn it on again, but I got no response! I tried plugging the iPod into my wall charger, but nothing happened! I finally gave up and plugged the iPod back into my Mac, but iTunes didn't do anything! HELP!!!!!

    Since it does not charge anymore, there's no way that iTunes will recognize your device when the battery is empty. You're still under warranty, make an appointment at your next Apple Store and bring it in again.

  • Brand New iPod Touch - It's stuck and not being recognized by iTunes

    I just got a new iPod Touch for a gift. I plugged it in and it needed to update software to 4.0. I allowed it to download and install and left the computer alone. Came back and it is currently stuck showing the screen with the USB and the iTunes symbol. It is no longer recognized on iTunes when I plug it in. I cannot get it off this screen, I would do a restore but iTunes does not recognize this. When I plug the iPod touch in, it shows up in device manager as Apple Mobile Device (Recovery Mode) (2 of them). I am able to install the drivers on one and the other it will not let me and gives me a code 10. This is very frustrating especially since I have owned it less than 5 hours.
    PLEASE HELP I HAVE SEARCHED FOR HOURS NOTHING WORKS!!!

  • IPod touch Gen4 is locked and won't connect to iTunes?

    My son's newly purchased iPod Touch 4th Gen was given a lock code by him.  He messed around with it in his sleep and locked it so that it needs reconnected to iTunes.  However, when I try to connect to iTunes, it says that the iPod lock is keeping it from connecting to iTunes.  Help?

    Place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes. For recovery mode see:

  • Separating songs into folders and playing all random

    I downloaded songs to my Zen Nano Plus player. Now I want to separate the songs into 3 folders; Jazz, Oldies, New. How do I do that? Will I still be able to play a combination of all the songs from the 3 folders in random order.

    After all day of playing with the thing, I figured out how to do it. If anyone else is as Mp3 challanged as I am, don't hesitate to ask me how I did it.

  • I've got a problem to load my iPod Software Update IOS 5 in iTunes. It's a iPod Touch gen. 3 and the last few updates iTunes wasn't able to load either. Can someone please help me? :)

    Hi
    Welcome to the real world!
    Apple software ***** and have done that for a long time. Its unbeliveable that we all time after time will pay so much for all these problems.
    I have also an iTouch 3g and and a Philips DMP 580 speaker with dockstation. And my 3g worked perfekt with iOS 4.3.5 in the dockingstation until today where I upgraded to iOS 5.0.
    After that I can´t I powerload or use the speakers in the musicsystem anymore.
    How can anyone release such a OS if they know anything about programming OS software ?
    Its completely madness that we have to spend so much time on something that should have been OK when released :-(
    And now I can´t return to my latest iOS 4.3.5 anymore and I can´t find anywhere someone that can tell me how to do downgrade iOS 5.0 to iOS 4.3.5 - if possible !!!
    All that just to tell you "that you are not alone"

  • My ipod touch is stuck trying to update all my apps

    My friend pressed "update all" apps, and it has been updating for several months. How can I stop it? How can I get back to where I was?

    my guess is that you are not connected the internet, thats why the iPod is unable to complete the update.
    Try connecting to the net and the updates should be done in a few minutes
