Why i can't sync my ipod

Try here:

  • Why I can't sync./transfer my musics to my iPod(Generation 3 - 5.0)

    Why I can't sync./transfer my musics to my iPod Generation 3, verion 5.0
    I transfer my CD's Musics to iTunes Library and then I transfer my musics from the library to my iPod but the musics don't want to transfer to my iPod, musics have a icon of SYNC. Icon
    can you answer me ?

    What does "musics have a icon of SYNC. Icon" mean?
    How are you syncing? Manually or automatically?
    Have yu successfuly synced by that mether before?

  • Itunes will only sync a portion of my music since i have installed the newest update.  It keeps telling me it can not sync my Ipod due to a duplicate file name.  Any suggestions?

    I am trying to get some advice as to why my Ipod will not completely sync since I updated Itunes.  Itunes keeps telling me it can not sync my Ipod due to a duplicate file name?  It will sync some of my songs but not all of them.  Any thoughts?

    Most likely the iPod filesystem is corrupted, during a partial sync, that freeze due to a timeout.
    In My Computer, select the iPod, right click Properties->Tools->Check Now
    tick both Fix filesystem and scan.for bad sectors.
    This will fix the duplicate name error.
    Good Luck!

  • How can I sync my iPod Touch to a new computer?

    My Laptop's hard drive died: that's bad enough, but my data was backed up onto my iPod Touch, including some very rare tunes that I can't ever get again. I then installed iTunes onto my wife's desktop, but now I'm told that if I want to sync the iPod, I have to delete everything that's on it as the iPod is already synced to another computer - which now doesn't exist.
    I thought that backing up my rare music to my iPod made it safe; it was on my hard drive and my iPod. Now I'm told that if I want to sync my iPod to another computer I have to delete its contents. I can't afford to lose the music, because I can't replace it. Surely this can't be right?
    Incidentally, because I can't sync my iPod I have missed at least 2 appointments because my calendar isn't updated.
    I understand that Apple are worried about data being copied from one computer to another, but surely there must be a way to register a new computer as one to which I should sync?.

When I plug my ipod into  my mac it shows that my ipod is conencted but when i press sync it says " This ipod cannot be synced because the sync session failed to start". When I try updating apps on my ipod it says "cannot connect to itunes store". My ipod is up to date and so is itunes on my mac, I have 16 gb of free space left and have reseted my wifi 3 times but I don't think thats the problem.

    All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • I can't sync my iPod after upgrading to iTunes 7 - Help!

    I'm running an Intel 20" iMac with all of the latest software updates applied.
    My iPod is a 30GB iPod Photo (4G) running software version 1.2.1.
    I upgraded to iTunes 7 last night. Since then, I can't sync my iPod. Here's what happened/happens...
    I installed iTunes 7. On first run (iPod disconnected) it checked for album art and ran through my library to determine the zero gap playback info. That all happened successfully.
    When I connect my iPod (which is set to auto update), it recognizes it, and show the status page (also shows up in "devices" in left pane) and immediately a small window pops up with the text "Updating library on 'Evan's iPod'". The progress bar gets to somewhere between 30-70% and then hangs.
    I left it running all night and it never finished. My only option was to Force Quit iTunes. Once I did, my iPod was still fine, and had all my music on it, just nothing new.
    I've tried rebooting my computer and iPod, to no avail.
    I would try reformatting my iPod, except that you can now (seemingly) only do that through iTunes (as opposed to a separate updater as in the past). Since iTunes locks up as soon as my iPod is connected, that doesn't help me much...
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Evan

    Ok... I just tried connecting my iPod directly to a USB port on the computer rather than via the USB hub I was using and everything is fine. Odd, but I'm happy now.
    Thanks,

  • My ipod is somehow synced to another library, because I plugged the charger to a wall. How can I sync my ipod shuffle back to the original Itunes library without erasing my current data in the Ipod shuffle?

    My ipod is somehow synced to another library, because I plugged the charger to a wall. How can I sync my ipod shuffle back to the original Itunes library without erasing my current data in the Ipod shuffle?

    ",the owner sold the ipod without clearing the songs and since the songs were not puchased from the itunes store then i believe i now own the songs"
    Not true at all.
    It does not matter where the songs came from, they are not yours and the previous owner does not own the right to distribute them to others.
    The law is the same with downloads and cds and any other medium.

    The other responder gave you a program that will transfer stuff from your iPod to your new computer.  You can transfer iTunes purchaces to your new computer by:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    After you move your stuff to your new computer you will have to let iTunes erase your iPod and then sync with the stuff that is now in your iTunes library.  You will loose app data though.

  • How many different computers can i sync my ipod to and transfur music from?

    how many different computers can i sync my ipod to and transfur music from? i am trying to sync my ipod to another laptop and add my music to that computer but i was wondering if there was a limit on how many computers you can do that with. thanks all.

    You can authorize up to five computers for your iTunes purchases.
    If manually managing your device you can add content from any library.
    If automactially syncing content is managed from one library.
    Purchased content can be transfered from a device into an authorised library, otherwise iTunes only transfers content to the device.
