Songs Won't Load on New Ipod

Got a new Ipod because my old one died. I can't load songs onto it. Here is what happens. When I hook the Ipod up, Itunes sees it and attempts to load the songs. I get a message that says it can't copy some of the songs because they aren't playable on this Ipod. This never happend with the old Ipod. I hit OK. Then I get an error that says "Attempting to copy the disk GREG's IPOD failed. An unknown error occurred (-69)." Any ideas?

This did help. However, I had to delete the file and just not uncheck it. I changed the preference to download only checked files, but it tried to download it anyway. Any idea why that would happen? Additionally, the "corrupt" file was a podcast. Are podcasets more apt to be "corrupted." This is the first that I have ever used my ipod with podcasts, and I am trying to understand if I should expect more of thest types of problems.
Thanks so much for your help.

  • Some songs won't load on my ipod

    I recently loaded some new songs from original CD's but they don't show up on my ipod after I sync up. If I look at the ipod properties it says I have 24 mb of "other" rather than music. I would appreciate any help on this. Thanks.

    24MB of Other is really not a lot. You should not worry about that much. If it gets over like 100MB, then you could Restore.

  • Some iTunes music won't load on new iPod

    I just bought a new 20-in iMac to replace my aging 1st-gen 12-in PB G4. I sucessfully transfered all of my music from the PB to the iMac and added a new 30GB iPod. This computer is number 4 registered with my account and the iPod is also the fourth one I have linked to this account (nano for running, wife's nano, iPhone). When I go to sync my new iPod, 98% of my music syncs correctly, but then I get an error box saying "Some of the Audible files in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod "iPod" because you are not authorized to play them on this computer."
    This message is confusing because I sucessfully authorized this computer through my iTunes account and there is no way for me to figure out which songs were not transfered over and why. Can anyone give me a hand here?
    Thank you,
    --Sean

    Use the instructions in this article using aa or m4b as the extension; once you've found a file, play it in iTunes, making a duplicate if needed. Audible content uses a different authorization process than most of the media available from the iTunes Store.

  • Help won't load into NEW IPOD keep getting error

    Hello all!
    I just got an 80GB ipod and have already added thousands of mp3's to iTunes. Now I have hooked up the ipod to sync and after SLOWLY updating 2 or 3 songs the error message says:
    Attempting to copy to the disk "IPOD Player" failed. The disk could not be read from or written to
    It then disconnects! HELP!!
    Joe

    Make sure your Windows software is up-to-date ;That you have all the recent updates.
    Make sure your running the correct software version for your IPOD;
    In your case it has to be ITunes Version 7.0 or higher.
    Make sure your battery is okay or Charged.
    Do a manual Reset on IPOD--by selecting>
    Menu and Center simultaneously, for about 6 seconds.
    You may have to do this several times.
    See if this will help.
    The next step would be to do the 5 R's.
    These five steps (known as the five Rs) will conquer most iPod issues.
    1. Reset your iPod.
    2. Retry with a different USB port.
    3. Restart your computer.
    4. Reinstall iPod and iTunes software.
    5. Restore your iPod.
    as you may want to get more answers, before returing unit.
    If you have a computer system problem then you'll have the same problem with the new unit.
    However, I am a beliver in returing; if needed!

  • Itunes 7.3.2, libra, and now songs won't load onto my iPod or iPHone

    I'm not sure if Libra is the culprit, but since I updated last night, when I sync my iPod and IPhone no music or movies load.
    I don't want to to to the hour of removing Libra and reconsolidating libraries if that is not the cause. I love Libra, I love being able to have my full library on an external drive and my iPod and only small ones on my laptop...

    If the songs on the iPod are "greyed out" when you look at them through iTunes, it's because you have it set to auto sync. That's why you can't drag and drop.
    If you want to do that, you need to change to manage the content manually.
    "also once the songs are on the ipod, you can't change the text or get the artwork."
    You will be able to edit the songs when you change to manual. However, if you add artwork to the songs on the iPod directly, you will not be able to view it on the iPod.
    Artwork must be added to the songs in iTunes first, then transferred to the iPod.

  • Computer won't recognize my new ipod

    I just got the fifth gen ipod and I am trying transfer my music from my old ipod and the computer won't recognize my new ipod.

    I have just been through this world of pain. dont bother re-installing itunes, or trawling through device drivers.
    Instead, make sure you turn off bluetooth and wireless. Unplug your network cable from the pc (assuming you have a LAN connection).
    Try plugging in the touch and it should be recognised straight away.

  • My JSP engine won't load the new source from my page

    My JSP engine won't load the new source from my page, even know I saved it, and I restarted apache, and resaved the files again, no dice! It must be running off of cash, it's not in my browser cash I cleared it out too, what else can I do?

    Tomcat checks to see if the JSP has changed since it was last compiled with you request that page... So, if the file is updated, it should recompile it. Are you sure that when you update the page, you're updating the same copy of the page? (the location defined in the server.xml file)

  • My MAC won't recongise our new Ipod 5. Every time I try to update iTunes it says I need a newer version.

    My MAC won't recognise our new Ipod 5. Everytime I try to update iTunes it tells me that I need a newer version.

    Uopgrade your MacBook Pro to OSX 10.6.8 or higher so you can run the newest iTunes.  Snow Leopard discs cost about $20 from Apple online (not available in retail stores).

  • Songs won't load into ipod nano from new computer.

    Load itunes library from old computer.  Installed iTunes& authorized new computer.  iTunes recognizes my iPod nano (4th generation), but won't load songs when synchronizing.
    Any suggestions on how to fix?

    I am having a similar problem. I recent reset my iPod as some songs were just skipping during play (they showed on the screen but after a second would just skip to next song), and have been trying to re-sync with no success. I have over 8,000 songs and when I attempt to update songs iTunes puts about 100 or so songs on then stops and states all songs have been updated. When I select update again it adds another 100 or so. Counting to 8,000 is going to take a while!! Don't know what to do...iTunes 5.0.1.4 9/23/2005 firmware. HELP!

  • Some Songs Won't Play on the iPod

    I have a bizarre problem.
    All of my songs that are on my iPod are in iTunes (How else would they get on my iPod xP) and they all work fine. In general, the songs on my iPod work/play fine, minus a few.
    When I go to play them, the load up, I see everything that should be there (album cover, band name, song name etc.) but the song doesn't play. What does happen though, is that the iPod rapidly goes through the album, going song to song, without playing any of them, as if I were pressing the skip song button. (which I am not pressing)
    Then it slows down and stays on one song, staying at the 0:00 mark, even though the play arrow at the top is there. If I press pause and then play again, the arrow icon changes, but the song still won't play.
    Now if I go to any other song by any other band the iPod won't play that song. If I press the center button, and move what part of the song it is at, it skips to the next song, and it doesn't matter how far into the song I put it. It's like the screen shows there is 4:24(or any time, this is just an example) of a song but the iPod thinks there is 0:00.
    A simple restart of the iPod sets everything back to normal, I can listen to my other music without a problem, but the same thing happens when I select any of those songs.
    At first I thought they were just broken files on the iPod, or even from the CD which I uploaded to iTunes. So I just ignored it, and didn't play those songs. But then I got more music yesterday and put it on my iPod, and the same thing happens to the entire album. So I decide to go open iTunes, and see what would happen if I tried to play the files on the computer. In the iTunes library, they worked fine. I go to where my iPod is listed, and play it from there it also works fine. So it's only on the iPod.
    Is it the format or the bit rate of the file? I don't think this is the problem, but maybe it is, so here's the info on the files.
    Kind: MPEG audio file
    Bit Rate: 320 kbps
    Format: MEG-1, Layer 3
    Encoded: LAME3.93
    Any ideas would be much appreciated.

    i have this exact problem on my 120 classic. it started earlier today on a few song i had downlaoded from the iTunes store. i thought it was an accessability issue since i had just updated to the latest iTunes, but it started happening on my songs from CDs, and then what you described happened on every single song i played on shuffle (out of about 10,000 songs total)
    i got home and plugged it into to itunes only to find it told me to restore it. so i did. then it looked as if it was fixed (the bar at the bottom showed everything on it)
    then i unplugged it, and it said no songs, yet there was 50gb of info on it.
    i checked under settings and it said it was all 'other'. then i plugged it in again and restored it again and the same thing happened, 50gb of other.
    iTunes works perfectly still. im not sure what the problem is, and ill probably go to the nearest iTunes store this weekend and ill tell you how it goes if theres a way to fix it.
