  • Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer,  I go to Store Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.

    Since I downloaded iTunes 11, I get a message when syncing my iPod that some of my songs were not copied because they are not authorized on this computer,  I go to Store> Authorize This Computer, a message pops up telling me that this computer is already.

    So I am unclear, did you purchase these songs or import them from a cd?
    If you imported them and still have the CD try importing them again and see if they work the delete the others.
    Or if you purchased from itunes re-dowwnload and see if they work. Maybe they are corrupted files and this should resove it.

  • Some items were not copied because software is too old

    I've updated to 7.0.2 and finally decided to brave the waters and sync my iPod--I've been too chicken to sync it at all since 7.0 came out and all of the issues began appearing.
    Of course, when I plugged in the iPod, it asked if I wanted to update & install or "download only". I chose to download only so that I could install it later (hoping maybe another firmware would come out before I do). My iPod was still able to sync--which I wasn't sure it would. However, after it finished I received the following message:
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod "Michelle's iPod" because your iPod software is too old. Go the to the Summary tab in iPod preferences and click Update to get the latest iPod software update."
    I checked my item counts between iTunes and the iPod--there were 35 "music" items that didn't sync and 110 podcasts that didn't sync. This is out of the 500 or so items that the progress window said it was trying to sync from the beginning.
    It would sort of make sense if it refused to sync ANYTHING that I had added since before 7.0. But why would it sync some, but not others? None of it is "purchased" from the iTunes Store. It's all either imported CD's, downloaded podcasts, or simply "updated" old items (those whose play count or last played date had changed--or possibly new album art).
    Any idea how to figure out the logic behind which items it WILL sync with "old" software and which items it will not?
    Maybe I'll be forced to try updating to 1.2 after all! I was really hoping to wait since it sounds like many of the current issues are iPod firmware related instead of iTunes related.
    Any ideas?

    The error 48 comes up when syncing. I think I have a fair idea now that there is a problem when attempting to sync contacts or anything else. Initially when setting up the iPod from scratch the iTunes capacity window for the iPod shows audio, other and free space. The other I believe is the essential system software plus the calenders, contacts and notes folders. On set up all files transfer. Every single time when I have clicked on the pane to allow contacts syncing problems begin. The other capacity disappears leaving audio and free space. Syncing is attempted by iTunes but it gives up and the error message 48 appears unable to update.
    My solution so far is to disable all syncing when setting the iPod up and dragging files over. Not ideal but it seems to work fingers crossed.

  • "Some videos were not copied because they cannot be played on this iPod

    I just bought my new 5th generation today, its 30G and i know its video, so why do i get this error message?
    Im authorized too. its kind of frustrating!

    the ipod video only supports a few different file formats.. mp4 being the most popular.. if the file is not mp4 you need to convert the file..
    you can find that software at www.versiontracker.com

  • The iphone cannot by synced with this version of Itunes because its software is too old-

    with 10,5 beta4 and ios5 beta
    the sync button is not active can`t make sync.
    but i see all my apps and music.

    The requirement for the latest iTunes (ver 10.7) is an operating system of Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6).  You will have to purchase Snow Leopard, available at 1-800-MY-APPLE for $19.99.  You will not be able to get it using the Software Update utility.  It is also not available as downloadable content like Lion and Mountain Lion.  You can check stores like Best Buy and Wal-Mart, I know it is NOT available at Apple Retail Stores.  Hope this helps.

  • "iPod software is too old" but is shown as "up to date."

    I purhased a movie through ITS. The purchase, download and playback work well on my desktop Mac. But when I have my iPod attached to my Mac, I get this message in a dialog box:
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod ... because your software is too old. Go to the Summary taba in iPod preferences [in iTunes 7] and click Update to get the latest software update."
    But when I do that, the sofware version is accurately listed as 1.1.2, a message below says "You iPod is up to date." and the "Update" button is disabled.
    This movie is the only new item I have put into my iTunes library since I upgraded to iTunes 7, and consistent with the dialog box, the movie is not on my iPod. How can I move it to my iPod? Has anyone else had this experience?

    Spent a 1/2 hour stuck on this one myself. The problem is pretty unApple, but the fix is easy enough.
    The iPod does need an update to v1.2 to upload. If you, like me, figured that Software Update would get you the neccesary update, you are mislead. Or if you figured it would download with iTunes 7, well then welcome back to my 1/2 hour of pain.
    Get the software by going to iTunes prefs in the General panel and look towards the bottom. Click Check for Updates Automatically, then Ok. Then go back to your iPod window in iTunes and Update will be available.
    Once your iPod software is updated and restarted, you'll be on your way to enjoying your downloaded media.

  • Itunes is saying that my software is too old but it is up-to-date

    i have a 60gb photo ipod running version 1.2.1
    i just downloaded a bunch of songs off of the music store and when i went to put them onto my ipod, i got a message that some of the song could not be added because my software was too old. (but it is not).
    help!

    What version of iTunes are you using?
    I think you may have meant 1.1.2 for the iPod software, rather than 1.2.1... unless the 30gb video iPod software (my model) is different to the 60gb model.
    6.0.5 is the latest iTunes version (on a non-intel Mac).

  • Syncing issue: Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "[name of song]", were not copied to the iPhone "[name of iPhone]" because they could not be found.

    When trying to sync with any of my apple devices the following message is displayed:
    Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "[name of song]", were not copied to the iPhone "[name of iPhone]" because they could not be found.
    For a list of items that could not be copied, click the + below.
    86 total problems.
    I am able to play the songs in my iTunes library without any issues and there is no "!" next to the listed songs in my library.
    It is only when I try to sync my devices that this problem arises.
    The songs are also on my laptop and not on an external hard drive.
    Can someone please help me out.
    Thanks

    Hey thanks for the reply.
    When the box pops up there is no option to search for the location. I just have to click ok.
    Then when I go to the songs with problems in my iTunes library and try to play them they play fine.
    It is only while syncing that iTunes for some reason is unable to locate the song.
    Any suggestions?

  • Why can't i add playlists to my iPhone from my mac while they are connected? I keep getting the following message "some items (meaning all of them) were not transferred because iTunes match is enabled." This is incredibly frustrating.

    I keep getting the following message "some items (meaning all of them) were not transferred because iTunes match is enabled." when I try to drag and drop a playlist, song, or album to my iPhone. This was NEVER a problem before iTunes match or the last iOS update. So what is the deal? Why can't i just add music to my phone from the mac? There is space on the phone. The only way I have found to get the music i want to the phone is to have it download from the phone. This is not something i want to have to do: go through and manually add every album and recreate a playlist on the phone when its there on the mac. And, even more irritating, since the new update, when the phone is plugged into the mac i can't actually view from the mac what music is on the phone. This is incredibly frustrating and any help would be much appreciated in managing my music libraries for each device.

    Hi,
    You cannot manually manage music with match turned on on your iOS device. If you want to manage music manually, you will need to turn off match on your iPhone.

  • Some Handheld/PC records were not copied to your PC/Handheld, your PC/Handheld may be full...

    So, after syncing the new Tungsten E, I got the above error message. I went back and began deleting superfluous old events in the calendar. Upon re-syncing, didn't work. I thought about getting the additional 1-year Palm support and asking a human-being about what the heck to do, then I found this forum.
    I enthusiastically did 2 hard resets then re-sync (per recommendations in another string of comments below), but no good. Then I thought it may be a software issue and put in the CD that came with the new E, thinking it may be another version or something (I had previously used a Tungsten E and was just trying to sync a new one, and I am relatively computer-challenged). Then from the CD Wizard, I did the Modify, and Repair functions - no good - still get the same error message on the sync logs.
    Then I did an uninstall and reinstall - no good, same error message. This was after restarting my computer. Then the wizard kicked-in again and asked me to do another sync - who am I to say no? It went through a long sync and gave me the same message, but I also either noticed for the first time or it really stated this for the first time, "Protocol Error: File already exists. (400B)."
    Then I did another hard reset, clicked "back" on the wizard, then clicked on the Next to get to the Wizard screen that tells me to perform a Hot Sync and tried to sync it again. It went thru another long sync where it stated it was "Restoring handheld databases." Same 'some handheld records were not copied to your PC' error message. I was not online so I did another hard reset, got the laptop online, and tried another sync. No luck - same "records not copied to PC/Handheld...PC/Handheld may be full" but neither one is actually full.
    Then I noticed the Wizard apparently did not recognize that a sync had been performed, because the "Next" button did not highlight (so I could click on it) after I did the sync! But interestingly, even though the error message comes up, the desktop and the PDA do in fact sync, even when I test it with new calendar events!
    So, I do not think this is a problem in terms of usefulness of the PDA, but why the heck do I keep getting the error? Thanks, and any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Post relates to: Tungsten E

    I completely uninstalled the desktop software and reinstalled it, making deletions from the registry and such. Did not work for me. Then I called a friend and he helped. Since my desktop and Palm were actually sync'ing even thought I was getting the error message, he said to do a hot sync with the Palm overwriting the desktop. He said that if the desktop was more current, have it overwrite the Palm handheld, but for me the opposite was true.
    I did this and the calendar synced! No error message. Not sure if that will work for all of you who have clear discrepancies between what is in the desktop calendar and the handheld calendar, but it worked for me at least. Good luck and you also can try PalmOne support online by emailing them. They do get back to you promptly - even though their solutions did not help me this time. They did try to help.

    I have the same problem. It is only with tv shows and only with programs I have downloaded after the software update.
    Apple support sent me the above link too....but it doesn't solve the problem...my computer is authorized and the content is in my library and will play on my Mac air, but it will not sync the tv shows, it keeps saying my computer isn't authorized for it.
    No answers here, but you are definitely not alone with this issue.

  • New Mac, external music library: "Some of the items in the itunes library, including ..., were not copied because they could not be found"

    New Mac Mini with Lion, external disk music library, redirected new iTunes to point to external disk, most songs are fine ( 90% )
    But...
    "Some of the items in the itunes library, including ..., were not copied because they could not be found" to my iPhone 4.
    Out of 4,800 songs, I have over 400 now which have "!" next to them in iTunes listing, but play just fine in iTunes.
    After playing them, the "!" goes away.  Is there a way to fix all of these at once?
    Note: If I could sort all of these in the list, to the top etc, then I could "down arrow, hit return" fast over and over... Any way to sort missing items to the top? Any way to get missing items all in one place, e.g. playlist?

    Well, I went through and cleared all the !'s by just double-clicking on the songs. Took a while but worked okay...
    Until...
    I logged out and back in. Now all the !'s are back, even though the songs still play fine.
    Perhaps this has to do with an external disk coming online a bit later than iTunes would like?
