TS1567 When selecting iPod in iTunes, iTunes freezes

My iPod (5th generation) does not automatically start when attached to my computer. When starting iTunes manually, the iPod is recognized in the title bar but when clicking on it, iTunes freezes.
Any Help?

  • Blue screen of death when connecting ipod or running itunes

    Please help me, I get the blue screen of death and its down to my itunes/ipod i think.
    Uninstalled Itunes (tried doing this in safe mode but it wouldnt let me saying you cant do this) and re-installed it but when try to use it (ipod not connected) my screen either freezes a few moments later or the BSOD appears.
    Ive ran a windows disk check and a system mechanic 7 one as well, a few folk on here have said my ipod might need reset but this is happening without the Ipod connected so is still an issue?
    My ipod seems to be working fine, obviously i cant even access itunes to reset it or see its status.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Have you tried this?

  • Unknown Error (-48) when syncing ipod nano in Itunes

    I got a new ipod nano chromatic and have had it about 5 months. Then today i plug it in and the battery was pretty low -it kept saying that it cant sync and that it has experienced an unknown error (-48).
    *** is this and how can I fix it. I have charged the ipod up, so surely it isnt the battery.
    Help!

    Have you tried restoring your iPod? Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • When resetting ipod touch to itunes it comes up with error (2003) what does that mean)

    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on): If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you are using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that does not resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps and articles listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software.

    Are you talking about restoring?  A reset is:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Error code 0xE800000 when connecting iPod Touch to iTunes 7.7

    Since one week ago my iPod Touch 8GB was working properly with my iTunes. Then I upgraded to iTunes 7.7 and upgraded the Touch to 2.0. Now iTunes does not recognize the Touch anymore and does not connect to it. I cannot use the Touch anymore because it always tells me to connect to iTunes.
    I tried to restore the Touch but nothing changes and iTunes refuse to recognize the device. Instead it responses with an unknown error (Error Code 0xE8000001). I tried all two USB 1.1 ports on my G4 400 Laptop as well as all two USB 2.0 over PCMCIA card. Always the same error.
    Can anyone please let me know what I can do now to get the Touch back to work

    Also getting this error and I can't seem to connect my iPhone to my laptop's iTunes. Tried re-installing iTunes but still no go.
    Would appreciate any suggestion to try to resolve this issue.

    Can you look at the Info for the photos that do sync and those that do not to try to find out why?

  • How can I reformat my ipod 20gb when itunes/laptop freezes

    Hi there
    Last year my ipod did exactly the same thing but I was talked through how to solve the issue by a guy in support. Now they want to charge me £25 for their help, even though I was out of warranty last year!
    This is what's happening. My ipod has started to show the folder icon with an exclamation mark. It's a bit sporadic (sometimes it shows, sometimes it doesn't) and will then show the menu selection. When I choose to play an album, it thinks about it for a while, makes a lot of clicking noises and then may play, or may exit back out to the main menu.
    When I try to connect my ipod to itunes, it freezes itunes, so I am unable to reformat (this is what fixed it last time). How, therefore, do I reformat my ipod when itunes, or windows explorer etc freezes when the ipod is connected to my laptop? I don't believe this is a Vista issue as I was using Windows XP last time my ipod cocked up. Any ideas how I can get my ipod reformatted?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Selecting media to sync to iPod Nano causes iTunes to become sluggish and freeze.

    For the past few months I've noticed that when I update the content on my 6th Gen iPod Nano iTunes will freeze after I switch from music to audiobooks, or anything for that matter.  The same issue happens when I try to select specific artists, or an audiobook.

  • Itunes freezes when Syncing ipod

    Recently, I have updated to the newest version of Itunes.  When I attempted to sync my ipod (80GB classic), itunes froze.  I had to force a shut down and when my ipod ejected, all the songs were gone.  I managed to get my ipod to restore factory settings, but now it will not sync more than 600 songs.  Once it hits about this threshold, itues freezes and the 'syncing' icon on my ipod switches the the 'connected' icon, but itunes continues to try and sync until it freezes. 
    I have attempted to add music manually and in different orders to see if it is a particular song causing the crash, but regardless of the order, once it hits about 600 songs, down goes everything.  I have to force a shut down, which effectively erases all the songs, and start over again.
    Any thoughts on how to break the 600 barrier? 

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Quit the application if it's running. Move the selected item to the Trash. Relaunch the application and test.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Everytime i eject my ipod and reconnect it all my music is gone. and sometimes while i try adding music to it. itunes completely freezes. please help. and sometimes when i plug it back into my PC i have to rename my ipod and such

    Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
    My suggestion.
    Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
    Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
    Stop the Antivirus program
    Connect your Ipod to the PC
    When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
    When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
    Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well, since you got such a huge library.
    When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
    If this doesn't resolve your problem, then let me know.
    Good Luck!
