Sync of iPod Touch 4th Gen freezes during Step 6 0f 6

Sync of iPod Touch 4th Gen on PC with Windows 7 freezes (after installing iTunes 10.5.0.142 and iOS 5) in Step 6 of 6 @ message that says "some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied because they could not be found".  This message has always come up before but I could always click on OK and sync would then complete itself without any further problems.  Have now tried re-syncing several times and same freeze-up keeps happening.  My other concern is that I have just purchased new iPhone 4S and now don't know whether to try and sync it or will it just end up with the same problem.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The difference between the 8GB advertised capacity and the available 6.5 GB is due to the iOS taking ups some of that difference and the way GB is calculated and advertised. See consumer confusion in:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte
The latest iOS (4,2,1) is larger than previous ones so the difference is larger.
BTW, your exact question gets asked a couple of time a week and you could have found it by looking at or searching the iPod Touch forum;.

  • Problems syncing my ipod touch 4th gen

    I am having problems syncing my ipod touch 4th gen to itunes.  I keep getting an error message stating iTunes could not back up the iPod "name of ipod" because an error occured.  My daughter and I both use the same computer to sync our ipod's and this problem only occurs when I try to sync mine.  It works fine syncing hers and I have tried to uninstall iTunes and reinstall it.  Please help

    Try placing the iPod backup file in a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new file.  It is located here:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

    Well when all else fails do a restore!  This fixed my problem.  Still don't know why the content bar differed, but what the hey!

  • Ipod Touch (4th gen) freezes iTunes when sync'd.

    A friend of mine has been having some problems and I have been unable to help him.  He bought a new iPod touch 4th gen at the weekend (couldn't resist the lower price or wait a few weeks until the new model) running ios 6, he has just updated itunes to 10.7 but everytime he syncs it iTunes freezes during part 5 or 6 of the sync process and does not recover.  His old nano (5th gen) syncs without issue, any ideas?  We have tried reseting the iPod to factory setings but this will only allow the iPod to sync correctly once.  When we try again iTunes freezes up.  We are pretty much at a loss, it's taken the shine of his new purchase.
    Thanks.

    From what I can recall they are preparing to or waiting for changes to be applied, I don't have my laptop to hand so I can't check at the mo.  The status bar then does nothing at all, iTunes just freezes up completely.  The moving arrows by the iPod stop circling and we have to use the task manager to close the program, just in case it restarted syncing we left it for about 20 mins without joy.  Even unplugging the ipod makes no difference.

  • ITunes updated and no longer syncs with iPod Touch 4th gen

    On January 26, 2014, I updated my iTunes software.  After doing so, my iPod Touch 4th gen no longer syncs with or is recognized by iTunes.  Reinstalling iTunes has not worked.  I suspect that this is a problem created by the iTunes update.

    Placing your device into recovery mode
    Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
    While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
    I just clicked on the Recevery Mode link in my previous reply and cut and pasted the above.

  • HT201406 Ipod touch 4th gen - freezing

    My Ipod touch seems to be stuck/freezes. Operating two apps at a time is close to impossible, if I want to type in fb chat window, it freezes for first 10 seconds and then enables type. It takes longer than usual to launch an app. If the music is on, and I want to browse through photos, music stops playing.
    Could anyone pinpoint what is the issue?

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen iTunes Sync Freezing Issue

    My iPod Touch 4th Generation freezes during the "Backing up" stage of sync. Nothing I have tried so far has resolved this issue and it's getting very annoying seeing as how I can't sync my iPod at all. I know it isn't just the iPod's fault, because it happened to my older one too. I've done everything I have found people suggesting and none of it has worked. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    I am running Windows 7 64-Bit platform on iTunes 10.6.0.40

  • Unable to sync certain apps on ipod touch (4th gen)

    Hi, I have recently been having problems syncing my ipod touch (4th gen) after upgrading to the latest itunes and iOS. Music seems to go on fine, however certain apps will not install. Some will go on eventually if I keep on trying, however modern combat 3 which I recently bought, will not install at all. I've tried several fixes now, turning off genius, my antivirus and firewall, even restoring my ipod. I also have Windows 8 if that makes a difference. I hoped iTunes 11 would fix the problems but unfortunetely it hasn't. I used to get error messages saying that an internal error has occurred, however on iTunes 11 nothing comes up, and the sync keeps looping without completing, unless i untick the box to not install modern combat. Is there anything I might have missed?
    Thanks

    Try deleting the app and redownloainf it and then try syncing.
    Then try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Why Did My iPod Touch 4th Gen Stop Sync Entourage?

    I just noticed that my items from Entourage 2008 are no longer syncing - Contacts, Calendar, but I don't know when that problem began or why. I've had no problems syncing my iPod Touch 4th Gen since I bought it many months ago.
    Other programs such as Apple Mail are syncing my Notes just fine. I've upgraded the iPod software each time a new version came out, I'm syncing from a MacBook Pro. It doesn't appear that any items other than ones coming from Entourage 2008 are affected.
    Perhaps something in one of the Apple iPod upgrades caused this, or a setting was changed accidentally - which I doubt, but anything is possible.
    I'd appreciate any assistance since my contacts and calendar are of utmost importance to me and must be correct and up to date.
    Thanks, Greg

    This sounds like the same problem I am having. The error I got was Ox E80000 24  that first O could have been a zero, not sure.
