  • I cant sync my ipod touch with my itune

    After i connect my ipod to my laptop, i am unable to sync it.
    Before that, i used energizer cable to charge my ipod touch.
    My itune said that "This ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. run the itune installers to remove itune , then install itune again"
    But the problem is i install tons of time it still dont work

    Try downloading new version of itouch & if you cant, disable all antivirus, spyware, fierwall etc. Then try it. Another thing is open up itunes & on the top left corner, go to File & look for where it says, sync "----" iPod. Or try to go to File & click on Transfer purchases from "----" iPod.

  • HT1386 I have a new computer and when I tried to sync my iPod Touch with the new iTunes, it has lost all of my music and videos from my iPod/old iTunes library: including all but 4 songs of my bought songs, videos and audeobooks!

    I have recently updated my computer since my old one broke and therefore had to download a new iTunes. When I came to add my iPod to this new iTunes, I was given no option to transfer the contents of my iPod library to this new iTunes and was forced to try 'sync'; when my old computer was repaired once we lost all of our data so I had to download a new iTunes then,all of my iPod downloads were transferred and I could easily reburn my CDs so I didn't think the wiping of my iPod would be a problem. When I clicked 'sync' it warned me that it would replace the contents of my iPod with the new iTunes library, as I said I didn't think this would be a problembut then it asked if it should transfer my recent iTunes downloads so I said 'yes'. The sync was completed but now I only have 4 downloaded songs and 5 albums which I burned to my new iTunes! I have lost all the music I bought, all the videos I bought and all the audiobooks I bought! (Luckily I still have my apps.) I tried to restore backup but realised that only covers calendars, contacts E.T.C and I checked my iTunes account and that shows all my downloads but I can't see a way to restore them or anything like that!
    Please help! I am in despair as you can imagine how much moneys worth I have lost and am losing faith in Apple

    Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
    As IO said before:
    You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    I do not think it included audio books.

  • How do i sync my ipod touch with my computer without erasing all music already on ipod?

    how do i sync my ipod touch with my computer without erasing all of the music already on the ipod

    Sanmannyer, just what are you smoking? iTunes can sync non-iTunes purchased music to any iPod and iOS devices (iPod touch, iPhone and iPad) as long as it is not DRM protected.
    Would y plase stop posting incorrect information.

    - Yes. If you sync with another coputer. the contents of the iPod will be replaced with those on the new computer.
    - You can redownload most iTues puchases b:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - If yo want to retain app data like saved games, do the following after all the apps and other things on in the iTunes library:
    ---- Connect the iPod t the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup

  • I lost a lot of tracks while syncing my ipod touch with iTunes. I have managed to get some of them back with a free download, but iTunes will not let me dowload whole albums which I have paid for. It does recognise that they have been purchased. What do n

    As I've already said to get this far: I have lost a lot of tracks while syncing my iPod Touch with iTunes. I have managed to get free downloads of some of the single tracks, but when I try to download entire albums the system informs me that I have already purchased them and a pop-up window informs me I can get them back from my "Purchased" file. I would not be trying to dowload them again if they were anywhere on the iPod, would I? The other problem seems to be that with single tracks I don't know before I hit the purchase button if I have picked it from the right album and I have had to pay for it again.
    I feel that I have been totally ripped off by iTunes and, apart from ranting on this forum, I don't seem to be able to let my feelings known. It's like a guy from my local record store coming round and nicking my albums and telling me that it's tough!
    The point here is folks, that it was syncing two Apple sites which caused the loss of these tracks and from what I've read elsewhere this is a regular fault. And please don't tell me that it's my fault for having a pc. Apple shouldn't sell a product for pc, when it doesn't work on pc!

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

    You don't.  You synch your iPod to your computer.  There's no way to synch from iPad to iPod.  You can tranfer the same playlists to your iPod from the computer.

  • HT201263 I did not sync my iPod Touch with iTunes and I have forgotten my password.  How do I unlock it?

    I did not sync my iPod Touch with iTunes and I have forgotten my password and now it is locked.  I have the recovery mode screen at "conect to iTunes", but iTunes is not recognizing it.  How do I unlock it?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • How can I sync the ipod touch with windows 7 64 bit

    How can I sync the ipod touch with Outlook on windows 7 64 bit?

    I'm having the same problem with Windows 7, iTunes has been spotty about recognizing my iPod Touch. Now that I've updates Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (June 2011), It won't complete a sync or a restore at all on either of my Windows 7 computers.
    I have gone through every troubleshooter action recommended by Apple Support, and have not been able to improve the situation at all.
    I took my Touch to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store after trying and failing to complete a restore while troubleshooting, and it restored just fine from a Mac.  Unfortunately, it now gives me an error meesage (Incompatible device) half way through an attempted sync, or iTunes simply freezes.
    I even tried removing the Windows SP1, but that was a mess, as my display went all whacky and iTunes crashed immediately upon startup.
    The Windows 7 OS ***** in general, particularly with compatibility issues, and not just for Apple products.
    Does anyone know how to remedy this situation?
    I'm so frustrated and have wasted so much time on this issue that I'm going to throw it all out the window!

  • Is it possible to sync an iPod Touch with a mac and a pc?

    Is it possible to sync an iPod Touch with a mac and a pc?

    You can only sync an iPod touch to one computer for music, videos, movies and apps. You could, however, sync to the Mac for media content and the Windows system for contacts.

  • CANT SYNC MY IPOD TOUCH SINCE I JOINED MATCH

    SINCE I SUBSCRIBED TO THE CLOUD I CANT SYNC MY IPOD TOUCH TO MY COMPUTER. I ALSO CANNOT PLAY SONGS IF NOT CONNECTED TO WIFI. HELP!

    Hi,
    Manual syncing of music in tunes match is not possible. All you music that has been matched, uploaded or purchased is available on your iPod touch.
    As the music is in the cloud you can only listen to it when you have a wifi connection. You can pre-download tracks whilst you have a connection.
    If you want to manually sync specific tracks or playlist, you can turn off match to manually sync and then turn back on match to allow you to access other tracks whilst you have a wifi connection.
