When you backup an ipod touch 4th generation, Does it also back up the music

I have a ipod touch 4th generation and i have backed it up onto my brothers laptop about 1 week before i broke the plug for the screen on the motherboard, So now its getting repaired just need to get the parts for it to get it fixed. Since i have backed it up will it also backup my music and photos, im not worried about everything else just i dont want to find all the music all over again

The statement "(it's not actually part of the backup but will automatically be redownloaded from the iTunes store when you restore)." only applies if you restore from an iCloud backup. If yo restore from an iPod backup made by iTunes you have to manually redownload the music
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • When i plug my Ipod touch 4th generation in it goes to the apple screen and then it will turn off and then back on to a solid blue screen.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Photos inside the camera roll are part of the backup, they are not stored on your PC if you don't transfer them manually:

  • What if my ipod touch 4th generation can't update and now the only option is to restore it. And i don't know what happens if i press restore?

    What if my ipod touch 4th generation can't update and now the only option is to restore it.
    And i don't know what happens if i press restore?
    Will it show my back up and back it up or what?
    And if that does happen will all my pictures stil be there?
    Also i'm not on a apple computer.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:           
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    Either a PC or Mac work the same.
    The photos in our iPod's Camera Roll album will be restored as will the last 30 days of photos in our PhotoStream album

  • HT4098 How do I turn off auto-renewing subscriptions on my iPod Touch 4th Generation? I have followed all the directions that have been suggested.

    How do I turn off auto-renewing subscriptions on my iPod Touch 4th Generation. I have followed all the suggestions, but my device does not follow those prescribed steps. Can somone please help me. I'm not very computer savy.

    If you go to yur account setting what do you see? The app subscription says:
    • Auto-renew may be turned off by going to your Account Settings after purchase and must be turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period.
    If that does not exist, and since eHarmony was not helpful, contact iTunes

  • I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up.

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation and have just recently downloaded the new update. I was wondering why the videos that I had added in my playlist won't show up. Is there anyway that I could get my videos to appear in my playlist? They are still in my ipod in the video section, but just won't appear in my playlist.

    iOS6 problems aplenty ....not sure if the link I inserted is working or not, but the issue is a lot more prevalent - the issue being that what shows up & plays in iTunes after the iOS6 update is not what shows up (& plays) on the device itself. This may go beyond just the iPod Touch as well.
    In my case I can see & play both audio & video files in my Playlist through iTunes, but can only see the Playlists on the iPod Touch with ALL of them being empty. Syncing numerous times no help. Contacting Apple Tech. Support no help - they suggested downloading my Purchases from the iTunes Store - waste of time, did not make a difference. It is clear Apple needs to release a fix to OS6.
    Another problem I noticed on the device is that the Shuffle option is hidden on the built-in Songs Playlist, having to swipe the screen down to see it - dumb dumb dumb.

  • I am a new iPod shuffle 4th Generation user and I cannot sync the music in my Windows Media play to my new iPod, can someone help?

    I am a new iPod shuffle 4th Generation user and I cannot sync the music in my Windows Media play to my new iPod, can someone help?

    Hi Daisymae3,
    The iPod shuffle does not use Windows Media Player to sync, it uses Apple’s iTunes application, available for free from this web site -
    Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    See also the manual for your iPod shuffle -
    User Manual iPod shuffle
    manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1550/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User_Guide .pdf
    Specifically Chapter 3 - Setting up the iPod shuffle.
    iTunes is the free software application you use to set up, organize, and manage your content
    on iPod shuffle.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I have a Ipod shuffle 4th generation. I would like for the music to shut off after one hour long song automatically rather than go to the next song. Is this possible?

    I have an ipod shuffle 4th generation. I would like for the music to automatically shut off after one hour long song rather than going to next song on the list. Is this possible?

    Sorry, but it's not.  The only way to get this to work is to only put the one hour song on your Shuffle.

  • My Ipod touch 4th generation won't let me drag the songs from my Itunes to the Ipod itself or how do you sync checkmarked songs?

    I'm confused, my ipod touch 4th generation won't let me drag my songs from my itunes library to the ipod? So i tried checkmarking the songs I want and I don't know how to sync those? Also, I try to sync apps to my ipod and it says my computer doesn't have the liscense for it?

    You should really read the manual.
    If you want to drag and drop, then you must check the manually manage music box.
    Read the manual:

  • How do I connect an IPod Touch (4th Generation) to media player to sync a music playlist?

    How do I connect an IPod Touch (4th Generation) to Windows media player to sync a music playlist? It is not listed in the listing of compatible devices for Windows Media Player. And it does not recognize my IPod. It does recognize my IPod as a camera perhaps because it has pictures in it. Thank you!

    No. You can only sync an iPod from media in your iTunes library.
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar and Control+B to show the Menu bar
    To import music into your iTunes library on the computer go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Add items to iTunes and follow the instructions
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device> and follow the instructions.
