  • Bought songs on ipod touch plugged into computer...songs are now gone

    i bought two songs on my ipod touch. then later i plugged my touch into the computer. when it was done both of the songs were gone...they were no longer on my purchased list or any playlist. when i go to the itunes library to purchase them again it says you have already purchased this song and i checked for downloads but they arent there! how do i get these songs back?

    what does reporting a problem do, though? are they going to credit your acct back? give me the missing song? or is it just going to go on a list for the workers to know that there was another problem?

  • HT4236 I can't see any photos when ipad is plugged into computer.

    I can't see any photos in itunes when ipad is plugged into computer.
    Everything else shows up.

    I have a similar problem Win 8 iCloud 3. Shared photostreams sync ok and my photostream syncs on other devices. Interesting enough, when I access photostream through the "my computer" option on Apple TV I see a whack of pictures that don't appear on any of my IOS or Windows Photostreams.

  • ITunes Freezes when iPod touch plugged in

    So last night I plugged my PB G4 into my external hard drive (which is where all my music is stored) and then plugged my iPod Touch 3rd gen into the laptop... figured I'd get the new iOS.  iTunes said I needed to upgrade iTunes first and I agreed to go ahead with the upgrade.  That seemed to work fine.  But now I can't sync my iPod... let alone download the new upgrade (iOS5).  Every time I plug it in iTunes freezes.  It shows up in iTunes and then after about 10 seconds I get the pinwheel spinning.  I've even been quick with plugging it in and then trying to right click on it and then select the back up option... or unplug it and then plug it back in quick and click on upgrade or sync... it almost tricks the thing into working... but to no avail).  I can't even do a restore.  I'm thinking I need to go back to iTunes 10.4 and sync my iPod (it hadn't been synced recently) and start over.  Is this the case?  If so, what is the easiest way to go back to 10.4? 
    Thanks. 

    No help on this?  Really?  Here's a little more info.  When I plug the ipod in with iTunes not running, it opens iTunes.  The ipod charges but causes iTunes to freeze up.  And I can't figure out how to go back to iTunes 10.4... Anybody know?  I've restarted both devices several times... reinstalled iTunes 10.5 2 or 3 times...
    I got the iPod Touch in February of this year and have synced it numerous time to this computer without issue. 
    Oh, and when I plugged it in the other day to do the upgrade iTunes interacted with the iPod just fine... asked me about if I wanted to update to iOS5.  Once the upgrade to iTunes 10.5 happened that's when I started having trouble. 
    I can't believe I haven't gotten any help on this yet...

  • "USB Device not Recognized" when shuffle is plugged into computer

    Everytime I plug my shuffle into my Dell laptop it comes up with the message "USB device not recognized". The shuffle doesn't show up in my computer or itunes. I've done some of things that it says to try, but I'd really like to get this fixed and get my shuffle working. Typically when I plug it in, it blinks once, yellow/orange, and then no more, and the notice comes up on the computer screen. If this makes a difference, the shuffle worked fine until last summer when my hard drive crashed. Upon installing a new hard drive, the shuffle began to not work/sync with my computer as it had been before. Any suggestions on how to get my shuffle working again? Much appreciated!

    Also you might try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

  • Intel iMac won't boot up when iPod is plugged into USB port.

    I have a 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 2 GB of RAM and 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. Purchased new from Apple in January 2007. Running Mac OS X 10.4.10. Purchased a new 80 GB video iPod (v1.2.1) from Best Buy in June. Computer stopped rebooting soon after. I began by deleting preferences of various kinds with no luck. I've reset the P RAM, the System Power Manager or whatever ya call it. I've even done an Archive Install of the Mac OS. Yet every time I try an' reboot with the iPod plugged into the USB port I get the start-up chime then the gray screen and that's it. No gray Apple, no log-in window. I shut it down, unplug the iPod and it starts right up. Please, I'm beggin' ya. I don't want to have to wipe the hard drive and start from scratch. Any suggestions?
    Thanks....

    ABStrange -- the apple tech believes that the iMAC is trying to boot from the iPOD which is causing the hanging. Interestingly, if you wipe the iPOD clean, it will work flawlessly. The minute you put one song back on the iPOD it will hang again. Hopefully on Monday or Tuesday I'll hear something back. I'll let you know what I find out. I did mention this thread on the forum to the apple tech. Hopefully they take this seriously. Maybe it is a serious enough flaw with our iPODs that will warrant a replacement?
    BTW: I upgraded to Leopard yesterday and the problem still exists. Was kind of curious to see if that had any effect.

    Have you tried another USB port (especially one on the back of the computer)?
    Have you rebooted the machine recently?
    Have you tried another USB cable?
    Have you tried connecting the iPod to another computer?
    Post back with your answers and I'll do my best to help!

  • ITunes crashes when iPhone is plugged into computer

    Ever since upgrading both iPhone software and iTunes iTunes shuts down when I plug my iPhone in to my computer. I have a 32gig G3S iPhone. iTunes runs fine and the phone works ok after a glitch or two this past week (lost phone connectivity Saturday and then black screened on Monday). However everytime I plug my iPhone into the USB port (direct connection) iTunes will give me the unexpected error message and need to shut down. I have followed the directions on how to completely uninstall iTunes and all related software (QuickTime bonjour etc) and still the same problem. I am running winXP Home and it's up to date.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Found my own solution.

  • When Ipod is plugged into itunes there is a lock icon at the bottom.

    When I plug my ipod up to my itunes there is a lock icon on the bottom of itunes next to the amount of music (i.e. 6.5 days). My friends doesn't have that icon when he plugs his up to his itunes. How do I turn it off?

    Manually updating is not as easy and takes away from the easy syncing from your computer to iPod.
    If you really want to do it...
    Manually Updating iPod
    Automatically updating is easier and better, in my opinion.

    My iPod itouch when plugged into computer just flashes the apple logo otherwise it just won't start. Try to reset -nothing.

    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 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.

    Sounds like the battery is shot and in need of a replacement.  You can have Apple replace the battery for a flat fee or you can send it into a third party repair center for a bit less.
    Not much else you can do for troubleshooting this one.
