Updating IPOD Software has screwed up my Itunes

I updated my IPOD last night with the latest software, and now, my Itunes is all screwed up. The play counts and ratings appear to have been randomly mixed, and my purchased music won't install on the Ipod, says it is not authorized. Songs I've never listened to are now 5 stars, and the playcounts of some songs have suddenly gone into the 100s.
ITunes for Windows version 6.0.1.3
IPOD was updated with iPod Updater 2005-11-17
IPOD is a 20 GB Click wheel.

She has had it for about 6 months and this is the first time we have plugged it into the computer since then. I can not exit out of itunes either.

If you still have the problem after retoring the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod then The iPod is likely defective and replacement is required. You can make an appoinment at the Genius Bar of an APple store or take it back to BestBuy if within warranty

i just updated my software to maverick and my iTunes to the most recent version and i can no longer transfer songs from my iTunes to my iPod. The tracks stay gray with a stagnant circle beside them in the left column. Any ideas?

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.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Installed Itunes: New PC, Windows 7 x64, updated ipod software, click to eject ipod, PC goes to blue screen, dumps data, restarts; songs do not play correctly on ipod. IE: play a song - only first few seconds will play. Some songs play fully, some do not.

Hi just wanted to let you know I solved most of my XP problems with my new IPOD. It won't recognise the IPOD or driver and froze and locked up and then the battery died. After hours of trying different things here is what I did. I completly closed computer down. Waited 15 minutes turned on and reloaded everything. I put the usb cable in but not hooked up to IPOD. I turned off Mcaffee (all of it). After my computer came on. I then went and closed everything I didn't need in the bottom toolbar. (taskbar). I then reloaded the software and waited. Took forever to reload and I don't know why but whatever it worked but I DID NOT HOOK UP THE IPOD LIKE IT SAID! I instead shut down the computer after loading the software and waited 5 minutes and turned it back on. I again waited and shut of mcaffee. It loaded everything fine this time and said new hard ware and drivers detected. I plugged my IPOD in and YES I WAS UP AND RUNNING (THIS IS AFTER 6 HOURS OF PLAYING WITH OTHER THINGS!) I am able to load and play, burn, watch movies, see pictures and everything your suppose too! The only thing I see different than the instructions is I left my usb cable plugged in and when it said to eject the disk I didn't. I also didn't plug in the IPOD (5th Gen) and then I shut down waited and then restarted the computer. I hope this helps others because I know the feeling of wanting to return something you paid dearly for and worked hard at saving money to buy one and it doesn't work. My only thing I dislike about apple is they didn't supply a ac adapter for the IPOD and the instructions say to plug it up when trying to charge battery. DUHHHHHH, ya can't do that if ya don't have one and stores are closed and won' open until Monday! But at least I am up and running. I just hate having to plug up IPOD to computer daily to charge the battery which only last a half a day1

Updating iTunes without updating iPod software

If I update my iTunes to 7.6, when I plug in my iPod will it require that I update iPod software too?
If I update my iPod I will lose the majority of my music because it will require me to factory reset (it was initialized on a PC and is still on those settings) so I don't want to be forced into that option. I'd like 7.6 though so I can rent movies.
any help would be great!

No, you'll have the option to update iPod software--or not. I updated to iTunes 7.6, but I still haven't updated iPod from 1.2.1 to 1.2.3.

Hi , I am trying to update iPod that has iOS 2.2.1 to iOS 4.2 but I am getting the following error message, "the iPod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (-1)." I would appreciate if anyone could let me know what the problem is and if it is possible how to fix it? Thanks

Error -1
Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I Just updated ipod software 4.3.5 but i clicked download only and how i cant find an option to apply it. The download window closed on my itunes and am on windows 7 and cant seems to find where itunes stores its updates to manually apply it either.

So basically my question is how do i apply this update? I've been trying for days but it'd would download and then give an error code when processeing and die on me. So i finally switched of my anti virus and it downloaded and processed fine but now because i was worried the download wont complete i clicked on "download only" option and once the download was done, the window dissapeared and i cant find an option to apply the software update! HELP!

With the iPod connected to the computer, what happens when you click on the update button in the Summary pane of iTunes? That is all I had to do when I selected download only.

Problem Updating iPod software on iTunes

I am having problems updating my iPod software through iTunes. As soon as it gets to the end of the download, an error message comes up (-48, I think) that states there was an error in downloading the update. It suggests to check my internet connection or try again later. It happens everytime. I have a very stable internet connection and my iTunes software is version 7.1.1.5
Please help me! Thank you.

See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore via iTunes
Next try DFU mode

ITunes quits when I try to update iPod software

I have the latest version of iTunes (7.6.2) and a fifth-generation iPod with software version 1.2.3. Every time I connect the iPod, iTunes asks me if I want to update it to 1.3. If I choose yes, it says "Extracting software..." and then just quits, as soon as the progress bar fills up. I've tried deleting the iPod software updates folder; that just makes it download the update, extract the software, then quit. I've tried restoring the iPod - whether I attempt with its current software or the new software, it does the same thing. "Extracting software..." then iTunes dies.

is "bumping" an appropriate thing to do here or is that frowned upon

ITunes can't update IPod software

Hi
since I have downloaded iTunes 7 I get an error message when trying to update the iPod [5thh gen] software.
I get the message "you don't have enough access privileges".
and teh updater stops -
The iPod works fine - but I don' understand why the updater does not work. I have repaired the permissions as well but no luck

I too am suffering from this! I spent my money for the 2.2 update which Apple were VERY quick to take. But I cannot get the ipod touch to update; same error as you guys :
"There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod <mine>. You do not have permissions to access the requested resource. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later"
I was also getting an "unknown error (-4)" earlier as well.
I've read up on the laughable troublshooting support pages and the only mention of a solution was to go to one's local dir and remove previous ipod software update files, which I did - v1.1.4 and v1.1.5. And when I try to redo it, I can see the 2.2 update file temporarily appear but then it vanishes right when the error message pops up.
