Does the iPod charge?
Have you tried another cable?

Music is not transferring to old iPod Touch from iTunes.

Music is not transferring to old iPod Touch from iTunes. iTunes recognizes the iPod. I've gone to File>Devices>Sync and File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. It shows that it is downloading, but once complete and I go back to check, still not there in either case.
Also, I updated my Windows XP laptop with the new iTunes 11, all the music is there from before and even added a couple more CDs (thought it was all on the laptop). I turn the laptop off, come back next day, music is all gone and is now found in iCloud. I didn't want it to be transferred to iCloud, but I must have missed a checked box or something. Any idea on how to un-iCloud all of that music that should still be on my laptop? Otherwise, how do I Home Share from iCloud (Windows XP) to iTunes on Windows 7?
As for Home Sharing, it's hit or miss. I found where you are to hit the Alt button to access Home Sharing on my Windows 7 laptop, it worked 1 time and now I can't find the Home Sharing in the Playlist Section or Music, nothing. Really?!?! Come on Apple, can't you do better than that! I'm getting really frustrated here! It seems I can only Home Share to my Windows XP laptop, but not vice versa - XP to Windows 7. Really?!?!
Anyone have any ideas on how I could possibly get this all to work? Btw, isn't iCloud suppose to automatically download to your iPod anyway? Well, it doesn't.
Frustrated!

Do they play in iTunes?
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
- Try unsyncing and resyning

IPHOTO 09 WONT SYNC SELECTED ALBUMS WITH IPHONE 4 VIA ITUNES

I am posting this as a question and will proceed to answer it as per the solution provided by Applecare case id
265819669
System
I run Powemac G5 OSX 10.5.8 Leopard, iLife 09 and iPhone 4 & iPad2
Software versions are iPhoto 09 V 8.1.2, iTunes and iOS 5.01 on theiPad and iPhone
Problem 1
Following software updates on all my devices I began to run into sync problems with my iphone 4, namely error message 1104
On contacting my mobile service provider they suggested:
connect iphone to itunes, selected photo tab and untick the box sync photos from iphoto then proceed to sync
Solution 1
This allowed iphone 4 to sync thus eliminating my 1104 error message problem
Problem 2
iPhone 4 will no longer sync selected albums, events and faces with iPhone 4
After level 3 escalation within Apple the problem was reffered to iphoto computer support who delievered this fix.
It was identified as a problem with my iphoto library not being seen by itunes despite my iphoto library functioning normally (or so I thought).
Solution 2 (I will try and articulate this as best as I can)
Open iPhoto app whilst alt key is depressed
select/ locate the iphoto library source file from your hard drive which itunes is using. This now tells you where iphoto library resides ie this is your library in which all your photos slideshows and star rating data resides.
FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS FIX IT WAS AGREED TO RESTORE AN EARLIER VERSION OF MY IPHOTO LIBRARY FROM A TIME MACHINE BACKUP - TIME MACHINE SAVED THE DAY HERE - TAKE HEED - BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP. BEFORE PROCEEDING ANY FURTHER, I WOULD RECOMMEND BACKING UP AT THIS STAGE, JUST FOR SAFETY SAKE.
Go to Time machine, locate iPhoto library and then select restore.
The file will be restored to it's original location and you can now begin to work on the fix without jeopardising your original library
Close iphoto, and reset system
Open iPhoto with alt key depressed, select the recently restored file
Open itunes and try and sync your iOS device
Does the selected, albums and faces tabs in Photo tab now work? If so problem solved, if not read on.
Restart system
Open iPhoto with the alt and command key depressed
(You will be working on the restored file as iphoto located this automatically when opening - see previous note)
a list of boxes will appear detailing repair permission etc - ensure all are ticked and follow instruction to rebuild reorganise the iphoto library. Sorry for being vague here but I can't remember the screen details.
Let iphoto rebuild the iPhoto library file
close iPhoto and restart system
Try the sync process again in itunes. Does the Photo tab option whick allows you to select pictures, albums and faces should now work?
If so, problem solved, well almost. If not, refer for further help.
Given you have just cured the problem with a restored backup iPhoto library file, should you need to work on your most recent file since that back up, repeat solution 2 from the beggining. Once complete, you will need to move the iPhoto library file which didn't sync to the trash.
Should you have events in your originl iPhoto library which don't reside in your backup file, export these events into folders by using export "current" feature in iPhoto, then drage them bag into your new library once your problem is solved.
USE GREAT CAUTION HERE, DON'T DELTE YOUR TRASH UNTIL YOU HAVE TESTED EVERYTHING WORKS CORRECTLY.
I hope this helps someone, if so please let me know.

Other folks have resolved similar issues by trashing the iPod Photo Cache.

Cannot sync apps to ipod touch from itunes

Hi,
Before I purchased my used Ipod touch 2g or 3g online I downloaded Itunes onto my laptop and also download some free apps. However, once I received the used ipod which had some apps and music already installed on it. I cannot sync (transfer) the free apps from my computer to ipod. When I click on application at the top tab all apps on ipod shows but I cannot do anything with them. When I tried transfer purchased from ipod touch to computer a message pops up saying I do not have authorization, yet I authorize my computer. Any help will do!

Welcome to the discussions,
you can only use apps with one account. If apps where bought using a different account, they will not transfer to your computer using your account.

I can't get calengoo to instal on ipod touch from itunes. I already installed it on two iphones

The ipod is running version 4.2.1 and I have over 4gb of spac left

Did you set up the Mail app as follows:
Mail
If you want to check your iCloud Mail, you can do so by visiting icloud.com from a Mac or PC (as long as it meets the browser requirements for icloud.com). Alternatively, you can configure a mail application that supports IMAP via SSL for use with iCloud Mail. More information is available here.

Song syncing difficulties on new iPod touch with iTunes match

I've got all my songs backed up on iCloud with iTunes match. I've been able to download most of the songs I've wanted from iCloud to my iPod touch but there a few songs that won't sync and I can't play on my iPod. I've tried to load them on the iPod manually with no success. Suggestions?

Couple of things come to mind. When you've got the list selected in iTunes, do you have Name selected on the top bar so they sort by Name? Try selecting the ^ to the left of name.
If it's a smart list, see [Smart Playlist not syncing as expected|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3044]
Hope that fixes it.

Can I sync a MacBook Pro to my iMac.......like syncing my iPhone or iPod Touch...using a common USB cable?

Hullo all.
Am curious to know whether I can, on a regular basis, sync my new MacBook Pro to my main machine, the 27 inch iMac?
Obviously I do this with my iPhone, iPad2 and my iPod Touch.
I guess I would use a USB to USB cable...which I have, to allow the two Mac's to talk to each other.
Any suggestions? I do have Chronosync...should I try this application?
Interested in your comments

ps, I did buy the new iPad2 and love it...but, for all its brilliance , it is not a MBP......obviously!
So, I bought a new one to the one I sold a few months back, and it is fabulous, got a 500 gig machine this time!

Comment was an after thought! But it might help explain my situation!

Hi all, a bit surprised at total lack of feedback!
Maybe with the Cloud coming, we don't need to worry about manually syncing devices!!
So, can I conclude that you can't really 'sync' a MacBook to an iMac?
Appreciate an answer
Thanks

Movies converted for AppleTV won't sync to 2nd gen iPod touch with iTunes 8

I have about 40 movies that I converted to "Apple TV" format with Quicktime Pro. They all play fine on my Apple TV. But only one of them will sync with my new 2nd gen iPod touch... and that one was converted by someone else for me to Apple TV with iSquint!
iTunes tells me the remaining videos cannot be played on this iPod. ***? They play in iTunes, they play on the Apple TV... what's the difference with the iPod?
So now I'm having to completely reconvert all my movies to iPod format with the function in iTunes 8 "Create iPod or iPhone version" but this is PAINFULLY SLOW!!! One video on my brand new 3.06Ghz iMac Intel Core 2 Duo took FOUR HOURS
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone else find a faster way to fix it???
HELP!!

It just does.
You can do it quicker using other tools.
For instance I have a hardware device called Turbo.264 which shifts the conversion off the computer and is much quicker.

Why can't I sync songs with my iPod touch on iTunes

I have recently gotten a new computer, so my ipod has to sync with it blah blah blah. So I synced it with my new computer. It seemed that all my music was there until I played my music. Most songs play like normal, but some songs appear as they are going to play but immediately skip to the next song. Confused, I synced it again. This time it completely took the songs off of my iPod. I checked in my library on the computer, and my songs are still on the computer. Relieved, I tried to put the songs back onto my iPod. With the new update, I click and drag. When I drag, It gives my the option of my iPod and my four playlists. It will let me add songs to playlists, but it will not let me put them onto my iPod nor let me add a playlist to my iPod.

What happens when y swipte a song left or figt? A delete button should appear. Just tap it.

Problem syncing music on my ipod touch4th from itunes

hello, I have an ipod touch bought in december 2011. It has always been working fine with itunes, my last transfer of music was on 10th of December. I've tried to transfer more music from itunes manually (uploaded three cds on itunes) on to the ipod but the music shows grayed up with a little circle in front of the track.
So to summarize, music is transferred on ipod but is not accessible or playable, even though it shows up on ipod but grayed. I tried to delete an older track which was fine and re transfer it and it's appeared back on but grayed. My itunes version is 11.1.3. Have you heard of similar issues? I'm not sure what to do about it, if it's anything to do with the mavericks update? Also when doing it on iphone 4, it works fine.
thanks for your help.

Can not watch movie downloaded to Ipod touch from Itunes

Hi,
I am very frustrated; have talked to Apple 3 times now. I have purchased movies from Itunes and synced them to my Ipod. When I look at the movie photo in the display it reads "Invalid" and when I tap the movie picture the message says Movie can not be viewed. I loaded a SD movie. I have the updated Itunes 9 and I recently installed Itunes again. Can anyone help me??? I purchased the unit in July of 09 (16G). I have "Erased all content and settings" hoping that would help. I am able to purchase and sync Apps and music from Itunes to the unit but can not do movies. I am not able to play the purchased movie on my computer either...just a blank, black screen. Can anyone help? thanks,

i've had to download an App called 'air play it' just to listen to my mp3s while im in the living room because i can't send mp3s to my iPod Touch.
'air play it' only acts as a streamer though so i can't copy songs from my Mac to the iPod Touch.
thanks

Can't send music to iPod Touch from iTunes?

hi all, this has been bothering me for a few weeks now and i can't figure it out.
i've been trying to send mp3s to my iPod Touch and i just can't get it done. i'm running the newest iTunes with a fully updated iPod Touch 4th gen. it's connected via the Apple supplied cable into my Mac Mini.
can i just paste mp3's onto the iPod Touch like i can in Windows with a standard mp3 player? iTunes just seems to make things really complicated for me.
i'd appreciate any help.
thanks a lot!

If I forgot to eject my ipod touch from iTunes and took my ipod out of the computer what can happen?

Can it harm my ipod if this is the first time it's happened? What can it do if you don't eject it from itunes first? Can it harm or corrupt files? How would I know?
It wasn't syncing at the time I took it out of the computer.

Nothing will happen.

Can't load my ipod nano from itunes on a mac; that is, I can't drag and drop an mp3 file (of a speech) from iTunes to my iPod--though the iPod shows up on iTunes. My nano is the brand new touch screen.

I received the new iPod Nano with the touch screen for Christmas. I have a MacBook Pro running OS 10.5.8. I have iTunes 10 on my system. I cannot drag and drop MP3 files from iTunes to my iPod--though it appears that iTunes recognizes my iPod--it shows up on the Devices menu on the left side of iTunes. My wife--a long-time Mac user--kidded me that I didn't know what I was doing, Then she tried to load my iPod and failed as well. Any suggestions?

Is the Manually manage music and videos option enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes?
