Upgraded iPod touch to 6.01 now music says "no content" on screen. Sync takes forever but won't work

Just upgraded to 6.01. Tried to sync music and it took forever and didn't reflect  the changes made in my folders, it also included lots of tracks that were blank. SO I tried syncing again, it took forever and then the iPod said "no content" when I clicked the music. Syncing takes forever (step 4 of 4) and does nothing now.
Restarted, relaunched and tried syncing many times. Not working.

- Maybe
Fix for “No Content” on iPhone & iPod after iOS 4.2.1 update
- 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 all music and resync (if you can)
- 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: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Got a black screen on the iPod Touch 4th Generation. Tried restoring it and holding the lock and hold buttons but this didnt work. Do i need a brand new screen?

    Got a black screen on the iPod Touch 4th Generation. Tried restoring it and holding the lock and hold buttons but this didnt work. Do i need a brand new screen?

    If you successfully restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Could be the screen or something else.

  • HT4557 I have iPad 2 and trying to connect to apple tv. Have gone into videos and music and put in my apple id and password but won't work. Pick up my PC fine though

    I have iPad 2 and trying to connect to apple tv. Have gone into videos and music and put in my apple id and password but won't work. Pick up my PC fine though.
    Any ideas? Have tried usual switching on and off again but no change

    Here’s what you need to do to turn on AirPlay Mirroring on your iPad 2:
    – Have iOS 5 installed on your iPad 2
    – Make sure your Apple TV software is up-to-date. You can check for updates on the Apple TV by going to Settings > General > Update Software.
    – Have your TV turned with Apple TV active and showing.
    – Double-tap the home button on the iPad to bring up the Multitasking Bar.
    – Swipe to move to the left of the Multitasking Bar, so you can see the set of controls just to the left of the volume adjustment slider.
    – The button just to the right of the Fast Forward button – the one that has a rectangle with a solid, upward-facing arrow in it – is the AirPlay button. Tap to switch from iPad to Apple TV.
    – Once you do that you’ll see the Mirroring section appear just below the entry for Apple TV. Just tap to turn that On, and the iPad 2 will immediately begin mirroring to your TV screen.

  • Updated Ipod Touch 4G to IOS5, now music files do not play,artwork shifts around without playing music, or it just doesn't play at all

    I updated my Ipod Touch 4G to the new IOS5, Now I can´t listen to my music properly.
    I generally use the "shuffle" mode on my Ipod Touch to ply music, generally the first three to maybe ten songs that start playing work fine, after that, the following things happen:
    1. Either music stops at all and I can´t play any other songs unless I touch the suffle play mode again. Eventually, I can listen to the first 3 to 10 songs but afterwards music stops once again. it´s a cycle of endless despair.
    2. Or the music starts correctly, but the artwork and file info header (song name, album, artists, etc - at the top of the screen)  belongs to the next song about to be played, and when I foward to the next song, it actually skips the song that was supposed to be played (the one that was out of sync with the one that I was listening to). It´s as if the Ipod tried to match the artwork displayed with the song but It completely fails in doing so. Eventually music stops completely and I have to press the suffle play mode again to listen to maybe three to ten "out-of-sync-artwork/header" songs again (Wish I could post a video, it´d be easier to explain, not a native English speaker). Hope you all were able to understand my problem.
    Thanks a lot.

    Exactly the same problem here.  In another thread some claim this problem is fixed by doing a restore with iTunes.  I haven't tried that yet.

  • If my iPod Touch 4G is under warranty, can Apple repair or replace it if the home button won't work?

    I've had my iPod Touch 4G for about 10 months now so the warranty is still in affect. The home button appears to be stuck or won't work anymore. I can press down on it and I hear a click but it's inresponsive. I've already looked up and tried numerous things to fix it, but nothing works. I have assistive touch but ever since I started using it, apps close or freeze within minutes of opening it.
    If I bring it to an apple store or send it in, can they fix the home button or replace my itouch?
    Thanks

    If the ipod is defective then they will replace it.

  • Can't sync photos (sync takes forever) but can sync music videos and apps

    I can only get my ipad to sync if I deselect the option to sync photos. If I try and sync my photo library (~5GB, 5000 photos) the sync hangs. Itunes is responsive, but doesn't show a progress bar, just the diagonal stripes moving.
    I left the sync for 12 hours without any progress. If I change it to just sync one directory within my photo library (~50 photos) I get the same thing.
    Everything else seems to be working fine. Syncing takes a small number of minutes, if that. I've no idea whether this is due to my ipad, itunes installation, or photo files. It seems unlikely to be storage related as the music and videos are all stored on the same drive as the photos.
    Anyone got any thoughts?

    Try syncing half the photos. If it fails again, sync the other half.
    If the second half fails, try syncing just 5 photos.
    The reason for this is there may be a bad photo file in the group of 5,000 and doing half at a time will tend to indicate that if one of the half's sync but the other doesn't.
    The group of five will tend to test if there are multiple bad photo files.
    If the sync is successful with a smaller set, you then need to try to find the discrepant photo file(s).

  • I just installed a new Hard drive in my MAC I can not use my Adobe product now. Says its not compatable with my software. But it was working fine before my hard drive crash

    I can not uninstall the software either, I already tried that. When I click on the "add or remove" software, it automaticly thinks I'm trying to install it and says I cant install??

    Thanks again kglad. I have walked through several of these and no results. When I launch InDesign in gives me the "Licensing has stopped working" But that is the only program. The rest tell me I may need to uninstall and reinstall the programs. They wont even try to start up. I believe the problem started when I tried to use the CC Cleaner tool. I believe it deleted something. It now gives me an error message:
    The alias “Add or Remove Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.
    When I try to open the Add or remove Adobe Creative Suite. So now at this point it seems I cant even "Uninstall" my software? Is that right? Sorry I'm pretty dumb with the whole computer thing really
    Thanks again

  • I have a Ipod touch and recently added new music to my itunes library on my laptop. When I sync with my ipod, the new music does not show up on my ipod even though the sync process seems to be working.

    I have an Ipod touch and recently added new music to my Itunes library. When I sync with the library, the new music does not show up on my ipod. The sync process seems to be working and there is still plenty of space on the Ipod for new music so I'm not sure what the problem is!

    What happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • I'm using ipod touch for a year now. I was using this morning and suddenly the ipod doesn't work at all maybe it got wet from my bag but there wasn't wet stuff in there. and itunes said iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. please help me

    I'm using iPod touch for a year now. It was doing fine this morning but in the afternoon suddenly when I took it out of my bag, the screen was just black and it wouldn't turn on and stuff. So I thought it didn't have battery so I charged it didn't work. I plugged to the computer and it said iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before in can be used with iTunes.
    Maybe my bag was little wet today but i don't think that is why.. since it wasn't that bed.. just some paper was wet and stuff..
    What should I do..? Please help me.

  • My ipod touch will not stop playing music

    My ipod touch will not stop playing music. I will pause the music, leave the playlist, and after 30-60 seconds, the music starts playing again. I use my ipod when I run and when I drive (hook it up to the stereo). It is very annoying when I stop to take a phone call or listen to directions, turn off my music, and then hardly a minute into my stop, the music starts right back up again.

    FUEL1996, not correct. Apple does not allow one app to control another app.

  • My ipod touch 4th generation wont play music

    My ipod touch 4th generation wont play music. I hit the play button and it turns into a pause button but the music does not play and the song length thing stays at 0:00. It is brand new and has not been damaged. No songs are greyed out. Certain songs play but most dont. Please help.

    I have same issue with iPad3.  all songs play great, both songs I have downloaded and ones on iPad, except 2 albums by same artist that I bought from iTunes.  maybe more, but I have not found any others that seemingly hang exactly as you describe at 0.00 seconds and with pause button displayed.
    mindful meditation in everyday life and mindful meditation workshop....Jon-kabat zinn.  I can play these on my iPhone which is on same account without issue.
    I also checked console and don't see any relevant messages.
    I have restarted.
    I have not restored from backup, but I did do a complete restore a few days ago....I had lost my ipad(left in cart at Walmart), so sent remote wipe command....but got it back!  iCloud restore was perfect.  I takes a while, so hoping to avoid another restore and would rather find the issue.
    please advise.
    thanks,
    phil
