Trying to get a new iPod touch to where the old one was at

So a year ago I purchased an iPod and along with it I bought the 2 yr extended Warranty. Well a couple of weeks ago the touch screen stopped working. I tried everything to get it to work again Recharge reset I even tried restoring and nothing fixed it. So I sent it in and in return I got a new iPod (refurbished). I figured hey no problem... just sync it up with iTunes and everything that had been on my old iPod will be on my new one. Not the case. I am just wondering if there is a way to get all that stuff back cause some of it I really want. I would imagine that it may have to do with looking at the device list but I cant seem to find a place that shows me all the devices that have been synced with the computer.

Welcome to the discussions,
you can check your saved backups in iTunes/settings/devices
then choose restore ipod and select your old backup to restore from.

I am getting new ipod touch i backed up old one in itunes i do i put content in new one

i am getting new ipod touch i backed up old one in itunes how do i get contents in new one

Restore the new iPod from the backup of the old iPod.
iOS: How to back up
The backup does not included synced media like apps and music. Those have to be in the iTunes library . Also, you will have to renter keychain items like passwords since they only get restored to the identical device unless you use an encrypted backup

HT2731 my oldest daughter recently bought a new ipod touch and gave her old one to her brother. I need to know how to unlink the old ipod from her account without losing all the music and games on it. He would like to have his own account.

My oldest daughter recently bought a new ipod touch and gave her old one to her brother. How do I unlink his ipod from her account and set up his own without losing the music and apps already on it?

Connect it to his iTunes library and set it up as a new device. You should be prompted to Erase and Sync the iPod if his iTunes library is separate from hers.
Or head to Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase all Content and Settings.

I bought a new ipod touch to replace my old one that did not have icloud. How do I erase my old ipod?

I just purchased a new ipod touch to replace my old ipod touch. The reason I bought a new one is I wanted one that had the icloud that I could sync to my ipad and iphone. I am going to give my old one to my husband. I plugged my new ipod touch into my computer and put my musice library on it. I then tried to clear my old ipod touch. I went to General Settings and told it that I wanted to clear the ipod touch. It went thru a few things and then it said to plug it into itunes. I do not understand why? On my itunes it does not list two ipod touch's on there as devices, so I am scared it I plug the new one into itunes it will clear both. Please help!

Yeah, what planb77 said.
Just connect your iPod to your computer, let iTunes come up, and then select Restore to Factory Settings. This will clear off every thing and install the current version of iOS for that generation. You can name the device and then set up iTunes to synch the items you choose.
If you have more than one computer, let hubby set up his own iTunes account and Apple ID so you don't get your stuff mixed up.

New ipod not doing what the old one did

I just received my new 6 Gen nano replacement in the recall. I think it's great of Apple to give me a brand-new ipod in exchange for an old one, but.....something isn't right. The first problem I found was that the new nano doesn't store tracks within playlists in the same order as in iTunes. I tried 'Copy to play order' both on the iTunes smart playlist and on the playlist after uploading it to nano, but the nano lists things bunched together in groups, with newer files first - no good for listening to eg radio dramas with multiple episodes that need to be listened to in order. Then I tried making a new smart playlist with the contents of the original smart playlist, but that copies onto nano in reverse order. So I tried reversing the order of the new playlist, but the order in nano doesn't change, which is weird.
All I want is a playlist that lets me listen to stuff in the order I want to listen to it in, without having to stop what I'm doing at the end of each track to manually select the next one. Is that not possible with the 6 Gen nano? And if not Why On Earth Not? I would have thought it was a pretty basic function.
Another problem is that play count seems to have disappeared. I set up my smart playlist to include only files with a play count of 0, so that when I connect the nano, things I have already listened to are updated and automatically removed from the playlist. Yet all the stuff I listened to yesterday is still marked as not having been played.
I would have assumed that a newer model would be easier/more convenient to use than an older one, but this is definitely several steps backward - or is there something wrong with my new nano?

OK, after lots of messing around I finally got a playlist to play in the right order.
First, automatic sync doesn't work, it has to be manual which is a bind.
The smart playlist I want to listen to has tracks selected by genre, plus 0 plays, arranged in order manually. No matter what I do, I can't get this playlist to behave as I want.
I created another smart playlist selected by 'playlist is the other playlist'. I select 'copy to play order' on this playlist, manually upload it to the nano and select 'copy to play order' on it in nano too. The playlist has an exclamation mark next to it indicating that it is not linked to an existing playlist. Ignore.
Sync the nano, and the playlist is in the correct order.
Play count still seems to be a bit iffy, though. Stuff I know I've listened to stil shows up with 0 plays.
Please Apple, make the software for the 6 Gen as user-friendly as it was for the 1st-gen. With that everything was automatic.

Can you transfer pictures from an old ipod touch to a new ipod touch without having the old ipod touch or the photos in Iphoto?

I somewhat recently got a new ipod touch after my screen cracked and the people at an Apple store said it would be cheaper to buy a new device completely. I followed everything they said about backing up my old device and when I went to pick up the new one, the store took the old one away.
Up until just a few days ago I did not realize Iphoto could hold pictures from your ipods. Mine never did it automatically, nor did anything ever seem to have the option to do. It just so happened that two days ago I was browsing the web when I noticed a website gave instructions on how to transfer photos. So I tried it and it worked for my new ipod while all the new photos.
But I was wondering if I could somehow get the old photos back from Itunes or my computer somewhere and transfer them into Iphoto or my new device. I was hoping that maybe if I could "back up" my old stuff onto my new ipod for a few moments it would show I have the old photos and I could transfer them into Iphoto and then restore the ipod touch back to what I have it currently.
If it helps, I'm pretty sure the old ipod touch I had was a 3gen as my new one I noticed was skinnier. As I said, I do not have the old touch anymore but I have the data in Devices on my Itunes if that makes a difference. Both my data for my old one and new one are in the Devices section of Itunes.
Thanks,

How do I get a new iPod Touch to have the same music setup as my old one?

I have all the songs on my ipod touch in my itunes library, but there are also a lot of other songs I don't want, so I can't just sync the new ipod. I could drag them all individually but that would take hours.
I was thinking I could get an ipod-to-itunes music program, and then just do my whole ipod, then transfer all of those songs to my new ipod, then delete the songs I had imported to itunes. But that's expensive.

The post by Zevoneer will offer some suggestions on how to do this:

Windows 8.1, iOS 8.1.3, Itunes 12.1 64 bit, constantly get 'waiting for changes to apply' when trying to sync my new ipod touch

Windows 8.1, iOS 8.1.3, Itunes 12.1 64 bit, constantly get 'waiting for changes to apply' when trying to sync my new ipod touch. Downloaded latest version f itunes, and ipod software up to date. Really frustrated I can't sync my music! Please can someone help me

Im having huge issues after updating to 12.1 on Win 8.1 x64. Choppy playback and so on.
Try this since it helps in most situtation :
Remove itunes but keep library files. Then download it again and install it.
Also most likely you will have to restore ipod touch. I restored my iPhone 5 to remove waiting for changes to apply and Error 54.
my iPad air still isnt restored (cant do it now) and it sometimes does same like iPhone waiting for changes to apply. And gives error 54 but sync DOES GET COMPLETED.
Also may sound stupid but try to use USB 2.0 Ports. Not 3.0. I have troubles when using 3.0

Getting a new iPod Touch to work

Hello,
I can't get my new iPod Touch to work, and I would appreciate help!
I bought an iPod Touch today. I turned it on and the Apple logo appeared, and then instructions to connect the iPod to a computer appeared on the screen. The screen was very dark and I could hardly see what was on it. I connected the iPod to my MacBook Pro. iTunes started and said that the connected iPod was in recovery mode and that I needed to restore it to factory settings before I could use it. At this point, the screen of the iPod was blank. iTunes could not detect the version of the software, the iPod's capacity or its serial number. I tried to restore the iPod but iTunes gave me an error message saying that an error happened. At this point, the iPod was completely unresponsive, and the only thing that I could do was restarting by holding the home and power buttons.
The iPod has been connected to my computer for an hour now, and the situation is still the same. Any idea of what's wrong?
Thanks in advance.

I got mine last week and it started up right away after pressing the home button. then I plugged it into my iMac and set it up. So your situation does not sound normal. I would try:If iPod touch won’t turn on, or if the display freezes or doesn’t respond
Â iPod touch may need charging. See “Charging the Battery” on page 22.
Â Press and hold the Home button for at least six seconds, until the application you
were using quits.
Â If that doesn’t work, turn off iPod touch and turn it on again. Press and hold the
Sleep/Wake button on top of iPod touch for a few seconds until a red slider appears,
and then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple
logo appears.
Â If that doesn’t work, reset iPod touch. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button
and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Is there any shop in texas ,austin where we can replace an old ipod touch 3G and get a new ipod touch 4G ??

Is there any shop in texas ,austin where we can replace an old ipod touch 3G and get a new ipod touch 4G ??
pls help mee

Sorry but I am pretty sure there isn't a shop which offers such a service.
Apple stores offer a 14 day remorse period where you can return a purchase for a full refund without having to give a reason however this has probably expired - unless you bought from a different store with a similar system which you still happen to be within the time limit for.
Your best bet would be to sell your iPod 3G and put the money towards a new one. If you are having trouble selling it an Apple store will take it and give you 10% off a new iPod.
