Why did the new ios wiped out my ipod?

I have 2 ipod touches. My old one I use for my kids, and I bought a new one almost a year a go that I have my personal things on.
I was trying to sync some music on the new one today but I got a message that the ios on the ipod need to be updated and could not be synced without the updates. I then got a message that itunes on my pc needed to be updated as well.
I was upset, because I simply wanted to do a sync with some music. I agreed to the download & after 30 minutes, it said it was done, but all my photos, apps, background, everything form my new ipod was gone, and the background from my old ipod with all it's apps are now in its place. In addition, It still will not sync any songs & has the original songs on the ipod. What is going on? How can I fix this? I need all the apps, notes, photos, ect that I had on the new one. It does me no good to have 2 ipods with the same things. If that were the care, I would have just kept sharing one with my kids.
I strongly dislike the new ios & itunes also, they are not user friendly. Can I just revert back to what was on it this morning?
I would appreciate any help in this matter.Thanks!

* I bought this in September 2012, so I have had it 5 months, not a year. It is a White 4th gen 8G, the old one is a black 2nd gen 16G I believe.

    Very vague question.
    It should not.

  • Why with the new iOS 7 update does my music rewind a second once I unlock my phone? This is really annoying and they should fix it

    Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion.  There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field.  if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it.  If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.

  • I downloaded the new iOS software on my iPod touch 4th gen. Now it's saying connect to computer with iTunes, I only have a iPad I don't have a laptop is there any way to bypass this

    I Downloaded the new iOS software on my iPod touch now when I turn it on it has a USB cord and says connect to computer and iTunes, well the only other

    No. You have to connect the iPod to a computer and restore via iTunes.
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    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 iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Find a friend or go to an Apple store.

  • I would just like to ask apple if they can make ios 7 for ipod 4th gen because my friends are showing off the new ios 7 with there ipod 5 or iphone

    i would just like to ask apple if they can make ios 7 for ipod 4th gen because my friends are showing off the new ios 7 with there ipod 5 or iphone

    No. The hardware in the fourth-gen iPod touch won't handle iOS 7 or Apple would have released it for your model of iPod. If you want to run iOS 7, you'll need a new iPod.

  • Why did the recent ios 7.0.4 update use up all my storage (over 9 GB)?  I have no storage for music and limit apps.

    Why did the recent update to ios 7.0.4 use up all my storage (over 9 GB)?  I have no storage for music and apps.  There is over 9GB designated to "other" under usage now.  I only have 16 GB total.

    Text, the best way is to take screen shots, or if you can forward them to your email. Your notes are either saved by your email or with icoud. They can help you find out where they are saved at.
    The resest is easy. I would say it best to also save your photos on your computer as well as a extra back up so you can also see them. Depending if you have Mac use Iphoto and import all photos, Windows use I am drawing a blank, but you can go to your start menue and then your phone will show up as a removable device and then left click and transfer photos and videos.
    After that you will be set. But it will take a bit to get all of your text taken care of thought.
    Also if you have non-programed email address like Roadrunner ect. You will need the incomming and out going server information SMTP ect.

  • HT1355 Why is the new iOS 6 so slow on the App Store?

    Why is the iOS 6 so slow on the App Store?

    Agree the new ios6 is much slower. I found this post by doing a search to find out if it was only me. I've done off & on & a soft reset. Neither helped. Everything seems to load much slower & hangs.
    Maybe the new apps aren't optimized yet. However, I had one of my worst experiences with the Apple App Store. One would think they'd know how to optimize their own site & app.
    I just hope it's not a bloat issue because the "upgrades" are not worth the performance trade offs to me.
    Also, the iMaps are definitely not ready for prime time. I tried getting directions between two locations that were very mainstream and the app said it couldn't provide directions. I'll take Google without turn by turn, thank you. At least let us have a choice and let the best app win.

  • Why did the new Ffox install in \Apps\Data\ instead of \Program Files\? what a mess.

    Using XP, I had reservations about upgrading, but Ffox Help refused to allow questions about upgrading, until I did :-(
    Instead of replacing the existing installation, it added a second, messing up my start menu, which still runs the older version.
    But the new version has disabled without explanation or advice, about half of my extensions/add-ons/plug-ins, including AVG, my security program.
    In addition, the Add-ons Mgr >> More links just take me stupidly to the AVG website with no clue what the problem is, nor how to describe my compatibility need to vendor. (Mozilla probably knows the problem with each estranged vendor, but did not choose to pass that on in the error message.)
    In addition, the Ffox page that brought me (Add-ons disabled by upgrade) to 'ask a question', indicated (by offering to install 3.6), that all of this hassle was known before I was forced into it, and I should have known by telepathy that 7.01 was all an avoidable mistake if Mozilla had allowed my question without requiring me to install 7 first ;-( {I know you are sorry. Please open the upgrade problems page if you value your reputation for intelligence.}

    Thank you for your prompt reply.
    I am a little confused. I thought it was not supposed to install without Admin priv., which should have required Admin. or not installed at all. (sigh)
    The whole Add-on, Extension, Plug-in thing seems a bit complex, but I now gather that Add-ons are adverts for additional software, & there is an Add-on Manager that also handles Extensions & plug-ins (difference?). Half of my dozen extensions are disabled, and won't update. A third of my 2 dozen plug-ins are up-to-date, 2 thirds requiring messy research to even determine if they are supported any more (?).
    Would it help for me to uninstall either 7 or 3.6 or both under Admin user login?
    And since I have doubts of the usefulness of many of these add-ons, will I have to do all the Mozilla research before I uninstall 7, to avoid getting locked out of the forum again? (or is there a way around that website problem? or perhaps leave 7 installed, but for AVG safety reasons just use the 3.6 for now?)
    Is there a comparison list of 3.6 & 7 features I have not been able to find?
    (Perhaps I can just uninstall 7 and forget it for now.)

  • Why does the new iOS 7.1 not show all your calendar entry's  like 7.0 only shows daily entry's not the list. New software on iPad still shows all calender entry's

    New iOS 7.01 iPhone 5. When you go to check you calendar entry's it does not bring up all the entry's only shows entry's for each day. Why?

    When in month view, swipe up or down to change the month, tap the litle icon "three lines horizontal" next to the search icon, and you have a list view of all events. Clicking the icon twice again, brings up the Day view, and then again tapping twice the list view again....
    Personally I am not very happy with this "advanced" app, and I have installed Week calendar which basically is another interface to the same calendars database.

  • Why didnt the new ios 5.0.1 fix my battery problem

    I have a brand new iphone 4s that shipped with ios 5.0.1 and it still has the battery draining problems that showed up with ios 5.0
    Under my settings i have location services turned of and the brightness level at 66%
    What is the new problem that could be draining my battery i know it not something i am doing because i am keeping my battery well conditioned by making sure i unplug my phone right once it hits 100% charge and every 4 days i use my phone until it dies and then charge it fully. i have found that this works to keep the battery fresh and as like-new as possible. all tips, tricks, and answers welcome.

    Technically this 5.0.1 update was already stated that it did not work correctly and there should be another iOS update this month that might fix the battery. For now, I recomend keeping your phone on low brightness and turn off Email fetching (if you don't know what Email fetching is, then it's not on)

  • HT5868 Why does the new iOS not trust linux computers?

    I tried to connect the iphone 4s to my linux machine that normally works.
    Since my last iOS upgrade the quesdtion comes up to TRUST the computer.
    I press TRUST but it does not work. However it does work on my Mac computer.
    Is it that the new OS only trusts Apple computers?

    No, your Linux machine does not produce the proper response to the phone.  Until someone on the Linux side reverse-engineers what AppleMobieDeviceSupport does when presented with that response, trust is not possible.
    This is a security change in response to the fact that previously the iPhone would open itself up to any USB connection as soon as it was plugged in, and that connection could do whatever it liked, be it benign or malicious.

  • Why is the record button wiping out my audio file?

    I drag a music file from itunes. Its colour is orange
    The file plays OK.
    I alter it (cut paste etc) and play it back. Its OK
    I record it (file turns RED) there is no sound and no wave activity.
    I stop recording and the file turns BLUE)
    I play it back and its silent.
    Regards
    Paul

    i'm afraid i'm still not following you. the changes you make ... are made.
    if you record over your edited track you will erase it and replace it with the new recording you are making (in the case you described, the internal mic recording the room noise).
    if you are happy with your edits, and want a new audio file, you're done. use the Share menu to export it
    if you intend to record something else along with the edited track, create another track on which to record

  • Why did the new version didn't load my library?

    I had 100's of song that I imported from cd's over 15 years, and all the upgrade till now, my library came with it. The new version took it all away.
    The other issue with the new version is that you can no longer get track names.
    This has been the most frustrated version. I can't get all those somgs back, and iTunes doesn't seem to care.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
