When I sync my iPod it shows all my music on my laptop screen but when I touch the music app, it all disappears.
I've restored my iPod twice, please help.
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: 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 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

Why when I try to facetime my Ipod from my Iphone it says that it is busy but when I facetime Iphone to my Ipod it goes through?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have just bought a new computer and downloaded the latest version of itunes. It has all installed fine, but when I plug my ipod and sync it, the music library shows all the songs and videos that are on there, but won't let me play them. Also, I can't add any new songs to the same library. It saves them elsewhere. I have had the previous version on another computer and it worked just fine. I have been online trying to find an answer but nothing. Hope someone can help me. Thanks
Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
Your media is only where you put it.
iOS devices are not backup devices.
Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer. -
A friend has put music on my IPOD but now I would like to add more from my own PC. Will I lose all the original music if I erase and sync?
OK.
Same thing.
When you buy a cd you DO NOT buy the right to distribute that music to others - this is stealing and is not legal.
You have no legal right to the music.
Sorry. -
Laptop stolen - how do I import the music on my ipod to the itunes on my new laptop?
Title pretty much says it all.
My laptop was stolen and I've now got a new one. I've installed itunes and I've logged into my itunes account. When I try to sync my ipod to my new itunes it won't let me - it only gives me the option of erasing all the content on my ipod and replacing it with what's on the itunes on my new laptop (which is currently nothing!)
I have over 25GB of music on my ipod, the majority of which I no longer have the CDs/ were legal downloads from places other than the itunes store (e.g. Amazon). Surely there is a way to get it back? Because if not it will cost hundreds of pounds to replace!This will only work for iTunes purchases only.
On your new laptop launch iTunes.
From the menu bar click Store / Authorize This Account

When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not. When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them. I've tried synching from multiple computers that are all connected with home sharing but it still didn't do the trick.

I am using Snow Leopard on a MacBook. I have an iPod touch 3G. I do not use iSync it Mobile Me. When I sync my iPod through iTunes new events on my iPod do not show up on my Mac and old events do not delete. I have read help instructions that include deleting the data on the iPod. The iPod has the correct data and the Mac does not so I have not followed those instructions. I need help as the only reason I bought the Mac was to be able to sync, back up, view and print my calendar. Currently it is useless. If only Apple could have learned from the elegance of the Palm software.

My husband has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want on my iPod nano. Is there a way to set up a separate account on the same computer in iTunes? Do I have to un-tick all of his songs (would take forever!! And then he would have to tick them again)....when we sync our iPods?
No. Its not possible.
Alternatively, create another user account in your computer. Install iTunes in that account with the library you wish to sync. -
When I sync my iPod Classic, the changes I made (Ratings, Last Listened) do not show up on my computer.
Try another Sync. On occasions, I've know a first Sync to behave like this.

I have purchased 2 songs from itunes. They show up in itunes library on my computer, but when I sync ipod with computer, the songs do not transfer to ipod
Is your iPod configured to sync these tracks? How do you have your iPod set up to sync music from your iTunes library?

So, I looked at my iTunes library and realized that i had a rather small amount of music on it, while i have a rather large amount of music on my iPod. I don't know where all my music went on my computer, and I have no clue how it isn't there. When I sync my iPod it doesn't transfer my music back or even give me the, "We found some music on your iPod that is no longer in your library, would you like to transfer these songs?"
I don't really know what to do, andy advice?Never mind, the problem just fixed itself when i searched for an artist that wasn't there. That was odd.

I addesd a lot of songs in my itunes, now when I synced my ipod this message appear "elma's ipod cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all the items in the itunes library (additional 382m is required). Then I uncheck a lot of song and synced my ipod again same message appeared. Do I need to buy a new ipod with more memories? Somebody told me to check apply after I unchecked some of the songs but I cannot find the word APPLY. please help I'm not a very technical person.
The Sync button becomes the Apply button, if you change the iPod's settings in iTunes. If you are only unchecking songs in the iTunes music library, you click on the Sync button.
When you select the iPod in iTunes, you see the iPod's Summary screen on the main part of the iTunes window. There is a checkbox there for Sync only checked songs. Did you check that checkbox? If you want iTunes to ignore the songs you unchecked when syncing your iPod, that setting needs to be enabled. If you change that setting, you'll see the the Sync botton has changed to Apply. Click Apply.
That method of unchecking songs works, but it may become annoying over time, as you need to uncheck more and more songs. If you want advice on some other more convenient ways to make it work, you can post back. -
I deleted all my playlists provided. However, they are still on my Ipod Touch. Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied back into Itunes?
A playlist takes up almost no room. A few kB at most.
It is simply a list of songs in the library
Do you want the playlists or not?
Now, when I sync my Ipod with Itunes then the lists are copied backinto iTunes?
Do you want them copied back into iTunes? -
