Why does my iTunes freezes while trying to sync my iPod Touch?
When I try to sync my 2nd Gen. iPod Touch, it freezes partly. It froze when a pop up from iTunes saying it's 'Adding Files' and below it, it says 'Processing: 20100314211421.m4a'. I'm pretty sure I know that I didn't download this file. And when I try to search it by the whole number '20100314211421' my computer couldn't locate it. BUT if I search in the first couple numbers like '2010' it shows a bunch of them and it's mostly [ MyDocuments / My Music / iTunes/ iTunes Music ] folder so I'm guessing it's from iTunes. After figuring that out, I uninstall iTunes 3 times and it still wouldn't sync!
+ When it froze, I could still listen to music although it doesn't play the next track.
++ Also, my iPod is the 4.0 version
+ And when I check my iPod ... nothing changes...
Please help! It's been bothering me for days now.

Hello All,
I recommend call Apple: 1800 MY APPLE
Have them document the issue in the system, and provide a resolution if one is available. If there is none they will work it until they find one.
This "may" fix the issue:

Hope this helps.

I've never had this problem before but since I've updated my iTunes, it freezes as soon as my iPod gets connected. Ever more strange, the music plays in the background but yet iTunes is frozen. Any help?
It appears that my iTunes is recignizing my iPod as an iPhone for some reason...could that be the problem?

I just got some new songs, and want to put them on my iPod. I connected it to my laptop, and iTunes opened and automatically started to sync my songs. It only synced the first 8, then displayed an error message saying "iTunes has stopped working." The only option was to close the program, so I did. I then tried at least ten more times, with the same results. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but nothing is working. Please help!

When I turn my computer on (Windows 7) I receive a message that Apple wants to make a change to the hardware. I click on yes but nothing happens. The change has something to do with Apple "push". I recently had a problem with"push" on iTunes when I tried to sync my iPod Touch. I have latest software for iTunes and iPod. Can anyone tell me what to do to get this change to install?

Since hardware cannot be changed with software, perhaps you would be so kind as to post the exact wording of the message? -
What do I do when this message pops up while trying to sync my iPod touch "An unkwon error has occured" followed by this number in parenthesis (13019)?
Type "13019" into the search bar at the top of this page by Support and read the resulting help articles.

Why does my iTunes freeze up?
Why does my iTunes freeze up every time it is opened. It only operates for about 10 -15 seconds and then freezes. I've tried installing it again several times, but with no different results. Can anyone give me something to try? Have I downloaded some program that I shouldn't have? Thank you for any suggestions that you can give me.
Are you running iTunes 10.5.3?

Itunes freezes when trying to sync Ipod Touch
Hi,
I have just installed the lastest version of itunes (11.2.2.3) after having issues with installing I finally cracked it with help fromn the support forum.
I am now trying to sync my Ipod touch and everytime i try and sync itunes locks up and have to end task in windows task manager.
any ideas on how the fix this?? im running windows 8.1 and have had no issues syncing till instlling the new update.
any suggestions greatly recived.
CheersYes.
The same thing has happened to me. After the hideous update they did a couple of months ago I didn't think they would mess things up like this again. And why, I, as a costumer have to go to all the trouble to create another account to see if the problems persist? If they weren't there in the first time, why should I struggle to fix it? It's APPLE's product and it should respond to the costumer's needs. I guess the best solution is not to install the upcoming updates. -
ITunes crashes while trying to sync videos during optimizing
Hello, Folks,
iTunes crashes while trying to sync during the optimizing phase if there are any videos in the folder.
If I remove the videos from the folder, the sync succeeds.
The videos were imported from the iPhone using the Windows 7 import dialog.
iTunes 10.4.0.80
iPhone 4
iOS 4.2.10
Window 7 Professional Service Pack 1
Thank You,

I repeatedly receive an error message when trying to sync my ipod touch with my itunes library with my new computer which reads, "Some of the items in the itunes library were not copied to the ipod because you are not authorized on this computer." However when I try and authorize my computer I always receive the message that this computer is authorized. What am I doing wrong? I'm missing about 100 songs as a result of this error!!
See:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases
Could the items be purchased by another account? -
I am trying to sync an ipod touch 4TH gen. The capacity bar at the bottom shows I am adding 22.29g with 6.5 g free. Yet every time I try to sync it warns that there is not enough room an additional 868.9m is still needed. Does the capacity bar tend to be wrong or am I missing something?
Well when all else fails do a restore! This fixed my problem. Still don't know why the content bar differed, but what the hey!

I tried to sync my iPod touch to a new MacPro laptop and it deleted all of my music and videos. I called tech support and they told me to email iTunes and they would give it back to me. How do I do this??
Correct. When you update via iTunes all synced media that is not in your iTunes library will be lost.
As IO said before:
You can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
I do not think it included audio books. -
I recently downloaded the newest version of iTunes and was trying to sync my iPod to my new computer for the first time. Somehow in this process I somehow lost all of my music! It says that I only havce 10 songs unless I'm looking in my library somewhere else. But even on my iPod all of my music is gone! Help someone!!! Can I find what music I used to have?
If the music that was removed from your iPod (which happened as a result of syncing it with a new computer... an iPod is designed to sync with only one library at a time. Connecting it to a new/different iTunes library will erase what is currently on the iPod and replace it with what is in the new library) is no longer in a backup anywhere or another PC, then there is no way to tell what used to be on your iPod.
You'll need to either rerip the tracks you had from CDs back into iTunes or redownload them from iTunes via iCloud if possible.

due to the virus attack i had to format my windows laptop...now when i installed new itunes software i had to sync my ipod touch again but it says that if i do it then the data present on my ipod touch will be erased as it is syncd to some older library... how should i protect my ipod touch data?
With all you media (apps, music) in the iTunes library connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup. Do that by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up. Then restore the iPod from that backup.
Note the the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
