Restored Ipod but it won't transfer my library back to Ipod

I've restored my Ipod, because it wasn't picking up the new music i recently put into my library, so there's nothing on it, and when i try to sync it with my library now, it says ipod sync complete but nothing goes on the ipod. it is still empty!! please help!!

This Apple knowledge-base article may help address that issue.

HT201272 Purchased an audiobook on an iPad, now I want to listen to it on an iPod, but it won't transfer or show up in iTunes.

I bought an audiobook with an iPad. It works fine. I now want to play that book on a different iPad (my kids want to listen to it) and/or put it on iTunes to download to an iPod. The problem is, this purchase does not show up anywhere except on the original iPad. All devices are linked to one account. We even have the iTunes match or whatever it is called for storing music. Books have shown up on multiple iPads, but audiobooks are the issue.

"it does that with music automatically over the cloud, but it doesn't do it with Audiobooks"
That is correct.

I forgot my password and am trying to reset my ipod, but it won't work.It says that my ipod is in recovery mode and that I must restore it. I click ok, and then click on restore and update. Then it says connecting ipod software update server and a screen pops up with ipod software update on the top and iOS 5.1. It lists a bunch of stuff this update contains and on the bottom it says next, which I click and nothing happens, it just goes back to the ipod restore page. Help, what am I doing wrong?

This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
Update to the latest version of iTunes. Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) users may need to download iTunes 10.6.3.
Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

Games I bought years ago, Texas Holdem and iQuiz will no longer transfer to my iPod Classic. They show in my computer "Apps" but they won't transfer. They no longer show that they can be "Re-Downloaded" from "Previously Purchased" they don't exist there.

I can't sync my ipod because then it will delete everything

The ipod is not a backup/storage device. the sync is one way - computer to ipod. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.

I am able to transfer my photos from my iPone 4s to my PC with Windows Vista but it won't transfer my videos? Does anyone know how to do this?

I have Vista (don't laugh) and my videos are transferred over when I plug in my phone. They don't open up in Winodws Picture Viewer though.
They are under my Photos, under the date created by the sync. Do a search I'm sure you'll find them.

I got a new laptop and installed iTunes and plugged in my iPod but it won't get recognized on iTunes or in my computer, the computer says unknown device found and that the software was not successfully installed.

help!! i am trying to downgrade my ipod but it won't let me it keeps saying that there is an error.

That is because Apple does not support downgrading the iOS.

HT1212 i want to get my photos and this app that has my movies on it, but my ipod touch is locked and i forgot the passcode. normally i would have to restore my ipod but how do i keep my content if my ipod touch says its never been backed up?

If when you connect the iPod to your computer yu can't make a backup:
- Contact a data recovery company
- Maybe via How to perform iPad recovery for photos, videos
