The mic on my iPod Touch 4G isnt picking up sound very well; I dont want to reset my iPod and I've checked for debris in it. Nothing. Any help?

So, my mic is not working well. Is it because I recorded a video in a very noisy enviroment, say, taping firetrucks with the siren on? Or is it because there is dirt or debris that I cant get to in my mic? This has been like this for a while and I want it fixed. Please help me.

I had to re-download itunes; while I can see the music on my iPod, I cannot access or listen to it through itunes. any help? Thank you!

I've done the transfer files thing... I've also authorized my computer to play the files.
I can see my list of songs, I just can't hear them through the computer. The individual songs aren't click able.
Thank you!!

You just make a purchase and it will deduct it.

My iPod Touch has been stolen, someone offers me to make his mine. How can I erase the informations from his iPod and make sure that my library will copy in the new one?

My computer crashed. How do I get the songs off my iPod and onto my iTunes?

I have a second generation iPod Touch. It's an 8GB. I had basically filled it to capacity with music with a few apps and videos on there. Then, my computer crashed. So, after downloading the latest version of iTunes i tried to sync up my iPod and get the music back. Instead it asks me to "Erase & sync" or "Transfer purchases". My iTunes is fresh and has no music on it, so I am not going to erase and sync it. And most of my music was not purchased from the iTunes Store, so I am not going to transfer the purchases because it would have a fraction of my music on the iPod. My iPod hasn't been synced up in days because i will lose all or most of my music, but I do have all my music on it. I was just wondering if there was any way to import ALL the songs off my iPod and put them on my computer as well as iTunes!

For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.

my ipod touch is disabled for 22 million minutes and I want to fix it but I dont want to lose my pictures and everything else. Help please I dont remember the last time I updated it. Idk I think its been a year in an half since I known about it being disabled. What do I do? Im scared to restore it because I dont want to lose my stuff.

You have to restore and thus erase your iPod. that is how it works.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Photos
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I am trying to sync my itunes with my ipod, but when I get to step 3 of syncing, it stops. Also, I deleted all the songs on my ipod, and when I go to my music in my ipod the songs are all still there and in a grey color and I'm not able to select them.

How do I completely clear my ipod music, and how can I solve the syncing problem?

Sync works the same way it always has, connect the device, select the content desired to sync and sync.
All the media should be in iTunes already, iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
If this is a new computer, move the content from the old computer to the new computer.

I plugged my iPhone for the first time to my computer,the iTunes screen came up and asked if I wanted to register the phone as a new phone or with the backup from my iPod. By accident, I clicked on the backup from my iPod, and I lost everything.

Hi,
I plugged my iPhone for the first time to my computer. The iTunes screen automatically came up and asked if I wanted to register/set-up my iPhone as new phone or using the backup from my iPod. Without knowing what was going to happen, I clicked on the backup from my iPod and then I lost everything I already had in my phone: mostly contacts and pictures. Although afraid of the answer, is there a solution to retrieving the info, especially the pictures?
Thank you!

by any chance did you do a back up to iCloud? if not there isn't a way to retrieve lost info with out a back up.

I have an old iPod Classic with 80 GB (I think) of space. I saved all my songs in an external hard drive, but the iTunes library resided in an old computer (no longer working). Can I get the libray from my iPod and use it in my new computer (Windows)?

If you were using a Mac you could use a program but AFAIK there is nothing similar yet for the PC.
However, you should have a backup of your music, correct? Just restore from that backup to your computer (and, if not, at least this will teach you the importance of always backing up your music purchases onto writable media like DVD).

Unfortunely, all movies and songs purchased in iTunes will be lost...you'll have to purchase them again! Any applications you've purchased, you can download again for free.
Music Rescue is a program you can use to transfer any and all data (music, movies, pictures..) from your iPod to your computer, and iTunes.

You can go to Settings>Store and log out of one account and log into another. However, apps are tied to the account that originally purchased them. You have to use that account to update them. Also, if you have apps from more than one account that need updating, you have to update them individually using the correct account until the ones left are from only one account. Then you can update all.
