Since downloading iTunes 10.5, my iPod Touch gets hung up syncing.

I installed iTunes 10.5 and then tried to sync my iPod Touch, but the syncing is getting stuck right at the beginning.  It has been starting to back up my Touch now for about 1 hour, when usually syncing takes about 5 minutes.  I tried to do a system restore, but was not able to access iTunes at all, so had to download the iTunes off of the website in order to even get back in to iTunes, but still had same problem with syncing as the first time.

  • Download iTunes pre-order on iPod Touch?

    Does anyone know if you can pre-order an album on iTunes but download it to your iPod Touch or iPhone?

    Yes, I probably didn't explain very well. What I want to know is, if I pre-order on my home computer, will I be able to download the album via the iTunes Store on my iPod Touch via Wi-Fi when it becomes available--if I'm traveling and away from my home computer.

  • Difficulties downloading itunes 9.2 for ipod touch on Windows 7.  Help?

    Sorry, this is in place of my previous post.
    My son has upgraded his ipod touch to 4.0 and plugged it into itunes on his laptop. On laptop it says that you can't put music and apps on without getting the new version of itunes - 9.2. When he tried to download 9.2, halfway through the installing it said - status 'computing space requirements'. After about 30 seconds it said - could not access location - % app data % \ . Then came up with options: retry or cancel. He clicked on retry is and it just does the same thing again. Can anyone help. He thinks he might have lost all his music. Thanks.

    Hello silverlining1960,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    It sounds like are a couple of issues with your current iTunes installation. Try completely uninstalling it as well as all other Apple related software and starting from scratch using the instructions in the Apple support document below. Note that this does not erase any of the Media store on your computer.

  • After Downloading itunes 8.2.1, iPod Touch won't sync

    I have repeatedly (6+ times) have tried to sync my iPod Touch with the recently updated iTunes 8.2.1 and every time it hangs in sync and gives me the error message:
    applemobiledevicehelper quit unexpectedly
    Then after doing force quit, the sync icon in the menu bar keeps spinning.
    I also have "disable automatically sync" selected, but it is still automatically syncing.
    Is there a way to go to the previous version of iTunes?

    Hey I am having a problem with my iPhone. About 2 days ago I have synced my iPhone 3G in iTunes 8.2.1 and it synced my music, apps, etc. But when it was backing the phone, iTunes froze and then the entire computer froze, after half way of backup. When I restarted the computer, I opened iTunes and still recongnized my phone, but when I tried to backup the phone, by right clicking the iPhones name next to the iPhone symbol, a pop up came saying: applemobiledevicehelper has stopped working and muct close. (And by the way I'm using windiws vista 32bit) I had stopped the applemobiledevicehelper in control panel and started it up again, opeded up iTunes again and still the pop up comes up after right clicking the iPhone symbol. What should I do now???
    And FYI music apps etc can still sync not backup

    Hey cptniemo,
    Thanks for the question. Connecting your iTunes Store and Disney Movies Anywhere accounts should sync all of your eligible Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies between both services. After connecting your accounts, you can check your purchased history in the iTunes Store:
    Download past purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    Alternatively you can download the free Disney Movies Anywhere app from the App Store (iOS 7 required):
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/disney-movies-anywhere-watch/id766894692?mt=8&uo =4

  • I downloaded a movie on my ipod touch through itunes and can't get it to cloud to my ipad 2

    I downloaded a movie on my ipod touch thinking I could cloud it to my ipad2, i bought it through itunes. I go to itunes and the only things i can cloud to my ipad are music and tv shows. Why can't my movie be clouded to my ipad2?

    Movies are not one of the items you can reload via iClould like apps, music, and some other items.  You can contact iTunes and request a redownload,.  They may give you one.

  • Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up.  Currently I'm looking to delete apps.  They no longer appear on left side of itunes screen.  I try to click on apps on top of screen but apps are in a shadow mode and I can't click on them.

    Since downloading itunes 10 my ipod's features are messed up and many do not now work.  Currently my problem is I want to delete some apps.  It no longer shows on the left side of itunes.  When I click on apps at the top, the apps appear shadowed and i cannot click on them.  If I check the box to sync them it says I will lose what's on my ipod and the things in my library will replace them.  What should I do?

    If you are completely confident that you didn't hide it, then you purchased those with different apple id. If you completely confident that you purchases with same apple id then you have hidden it. One of the other or you are speaking about a miracle. While miracles are possible they are not very likely.

    When you restore via iTunes iTunes will download the firmware(ipsw) file. It could be that the microwave damaged the iPod and iTunes does not know what it is.
