Try in order:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod since you may have corruption that is now in your backup
Based on the info you provided it appears you did the restore from backup and sitll have problems. Thus, I would just restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

I need help from some Apple people. I have an iPod Touch and I wanted to load it up with some fresh music but I currently don't have a PC. I found an app that would allow me to connect to my 2TB network drive directly and I was able to transfer a bunch of music files to the iPod. Unfortunately, these new files do not show under the Music app and I can't seem to find any way to convince the iPod that they are music. I can play them through the file manager only. Android doesn't have this problem, any music I put on my phone is recognized as music and can be played through any of the music apps. Am I missing something or is Apple to inflexible to handle this?
You can't. The only way to get songs in the Music app is to sync from a computer or to download from iTunes.

the itunes radio isnt showing up on the music app and the itunes store on my iphone 5. what should i do? help me please
Hello, Ninaxand.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you are a US customer, try forcing all applications to close and power cycle the device. Test accessing iTunes Radio after processing these steps. I would also make sure cellular data is enabled for iTunes.
iOS: Force an app to close

After connecting my new iPhone 6 to iTunes, i transferred my music as i always have done. After opening the music app and selecting a playlist there is a download cloud next to each track... this is also the case with each podcast. Also once i reconnect the phone to iTunes go to add another playlist, at the top the "sync music" check tick has disappeared. when i re check that box again it says "Do you want to sync this iPhone all data will be erased"
can anyone help at all?
Thank youHello henryscott3,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post it appears that you either have iTunes Match on your iPhone, or are seeing items that are available in iTunes in the Cloud and not on your device. To learn more about both of these features, please see the articles below.
iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
iCloud: Content everywhere
Take care,

When I enter the music app, I just want to listen to the music that I've downloaded onto my device, not old music I don't want, but is still shown for streaming. Any help/ideas? I don't want to have to go offline just to listen to the music I want to listen to everytime

Why would you have to go offline to listen to music? Dosn't make sense.
However, you can set the app up to just show you tracks that are actually on the device: Settings app > Music > Show All Muisc [turn OFF] -
Hello!
I need some help with the music app in ios 7...
In ios 6, I could choose an artist from the "srtists" view and it would show me all his albums as a list. Now, in ios 7, when I choose an artist, it shows me every song underneath every album, making it impossible to see al the albums at once! Is there anyway to minimize this view so I could see only the albums' titles as a list?
It is VERY annoying. I would very much appreciate any help on this!
Thank youExactly!
This is all about the experience and accessibility. I don't even mind if the new desing is beautiful or not, but if I find myself, like you, avoiding looking for my music, my experience becomes frustrating. I have about 35 albums of a single artist and I used to love going over them and choose the right thing for me, especially being on the road a lot, and now I have to think twice about even entering his name.
I really hope Apple will take those kind of things into consideration when they issue updates for ios 7, and maybe also give us back the goole search which was embeded into the spotlight search (which is really not that big of a request).
And for your 4s - get the new iphone, it's MUCH better -
I am confused about the music app and a second playlist
i put music from my computer though ITunes to my IPhone 6 and in the music app I setup one playlist of one artist and then just now I created another playlist and it let me select songs but gives no option to add the music I selec to the second playlist what is going on here
Hey Cooltwou,
To make sure that I am clear and we are on the same page, you cannot add more songs to a playlist that you have already created. You should be able to do that by tapping the edit in the upper left hand corner and then tap the plus button in the upper right hand corner to then select the songs that you have synced to your iPhone.

Help me please I want to make sure the thief couldn't open the phone and the apps and the music since it all carries personal information and are very important to me. How do I make sure the phone can no longer be used for anything?
If the carrier blocked it, that just means the SIM card in it can't be used to make calls or access the data network.
A 4 digit passcode can obviously be broken. How easily depends on the code you used and whether the thief knows anything about you. In all likelihood, the thief couldn't care less about your data. They want the phone, which has real monetary value.
Next time, turn on Find my iPhone. -
Rare restart problem when I play radio from music app..
cor-el:
Thanks for the suggestion. I already tried rebuilding that file as well and it didn't help. Also, all the changes I make are retained from session to session in terms of placement and what's shown/hidden, it's just the contents of the bookmark toolbar that disappear. The toolbar is still there and I can drag things to it, but again, they disappear after restarting the browser.
edit (clarification):
When I say the items disappear, I mean they are no longer visible or clickable. They are still there in the sense that they appear in the Bookmark menu and if I move the Bookmark Toolbar from its own toolbar into the space next to the Menu Toolbar, they are then shown. -
The Music App in iOS7 is an annoying step back - Why?
As a whole, I appreciate the design and functionality changes within iOS7. It's breathed new life into the OS, given people something new to explore and talk about.
But Apple seem to have lost their way when it comes to the basics of playing some music on an iPhone. It's become fiddly, complicated, fragmented and regressed - iOS6 had the right balance
Why? Well, based on personal experience and comments made by colleagues, friends etc, the most regular complaints are..
-- Why have users been forced to listen to podcasts in the separate app? Apple - not everyone listens to spoken word podcasts. We listen to music mixes etc.. Having those mixes in the SAME PLACE as our other music makes it a more seamless experience. Switching apps is a ball-ache
-- Why can't we delete entire Albums in one swipe any more? Track by track, is again, a ballache
-- The controls to scrub through tracks are tiny and barely usable. iOS6 allowed you to scrub and see the slider under your finger - now you have a tiny red line that leads to inaccurate movement thru tracks
-- Music control while the phone is locked is very very frustrating in iOS7 in a few ways...
1) iOS6 - you could double click the home button, the controls (large) would appear on screen. You could hit play and instantly listen to some shuffled music. In iOS7 - you have to swipe up,hit play then hope it starts a track (which it doesnt always do)
2) The above isnt too much of an issue when the phone is on a desk in front of you, or in your hand... but when you're using the phone while running, the clunky process is unhelpful and unintuitive. If you use an arm band to hold your iphone while you exercise try dragging the control centre up, selecting the music app and playing a track while you've got a plastic cover over the screen - it's nigh on impossible
3) You cant enter the music app unless there's a track already playing - why isnt Music.app quickly accessible from Control Centre? I'd use that more than a stopwatch
3) There's no indication that a track is playing unless you open control centre. Where has the triangular 'play' icon gone in the taskbar?
-- In Album view, the coverart icons are too large- takes longer to scroll thru a collection of albums, especially as the alphbetical slider on the right hand side of the screen is smaller and omits every other letter
Overall, the app is flawed / too skewed toward the purchase of media via the iTunes store
I doubt very much whether Apple will read this post or listen to customer feedback and deviate from their design vision. Apple regularly claim they identify a customer need and fulfill it - would be good if they were good to their word on this particular aspect of iOS7Which is a horrible app that shows every **** podcast you subsctribe to, whether or not you have a new episode, and doesn't let you arrange them properly to only show unplayed episodes. It's also a completely needless app since the Music app handles podcasts just fine.

BACKGROUND: When I'm home, using my iPhone4 and MacPro/iTunes library, I've been watching video on my iPhone via the Home Sharing feature of the said devices. I have lots of videos in my iTunes library, so I've set up lots of video playlists to help organize stuff, and also to more quickly zone in on the video I want to watch from my iPhone and AppleTV. So here's the process I go through when I want to watch a video on my iPhone: go into the Music app, then hit the "More..." selection (along the bottom right of screen), then hit the "Shared" selection, then hit the "Bob's iTunes Library" selection, then hit the "Playlists" selection (along the bottom left of screen), then find/select the video playlist of choice, then find/select the video of choice, then start watching. Aside from the occasional spontaneous disconnect issue I've been having lately, it all works like a charm.
(NOTE: I tried the same procedure using the Videos app on my iPhone, but there doesn't seem to be a way to see the video playlists in this app.)
TO THE PRESENT: So when I got my shiny new iPad3 this Monday, the very first thing I did was try to replicate this process on the iPad3. Because both the Videos app and the Music app look very different on the iPad vs their iPhone counterparts, I tried this using the Videos app first, but ran into the same problem as on the iPhone - there's no way (as far as I can tell) to view/access the video playlists in this app – all I see are icons, one for each video. I then tried the Music app, and steps are identical to the iPhone version. I got as far as getting to see my playlists, and then selecting the video playlist of interest, but once there, no videos are in the playlist, only a single song(??). In fact, none of the video playlists have any video files in them (some have song tracks??).Same problem on my ipad 2...but it works well on my iphone 4s.
Can somebody help me?
Thank you -
The Music app on my ipod touch will not open?
The Music app on my ipod touch will not open, it loads but the sceen is always blank and then closes the music app and goes back to my list of apps.. what do i do? any ideas?
I have the same problem since a couple days ago, I will try to refrain from swearing or slagging on Apple, got a few questions for you, Gerbrandt, or anyone else who's had this problem and worked around it by means of a 3rd party app:
1-Since using panamp have you used your ipod in any docks successfully? (ex: I have a JVC car deck, a Klipsch dock and the Yamaha dock for my home theatre, all will be worthless if I can't resurrect my iPod as a music player)
2-Has using panamp done anything to help the original Apple music app to work or has it stayed dead?
3-Do you have any smart playlists? Like others with the 64GB model I have many many songs (that's the WHOLE point of the large capacity iPod, isn't it?) and I found that the more smart playlists I had the worse the apple music app behaved back when it was still working.
I'll check out panamp tonight, hopefully that will stop me from curb-stomping my iPod.
Anyone know whether an Apple "genius" has access to any sort of debugging facilities that would make it worth visiting the store for help on this matter? (ex: if they have root access to check for corrupt song database, or debug logs of some sort, or can do any direct manipulation of commands over the dock connector).
It sure would be nice to know why this happens, I have about 14,000 songs locked in iTunes now and many hours of time invested in ripping my CD collection but I don't want to buy a replacement iPod only to have this happen to it too. It's annoying enough the 4 hours it takes to resynch after a system restore (which in the end did nothing to resolve the original issue). -
i downloaded an album on itunes using my new itouch; but it's only allowing me to put three songs at any one time into the music app...how can i get it to just move them all in there?
hi philly, thanks for getting back to me, especially on such a busy day.
I don't think that's quite the issue though. I bought an album and it appears in 'my purchases' within the itunes app. Yet, in order to listen to the music, i must use the 'music' app and in this application, there are only three tracks displayed at any one time from my downloaded album.
I can 'download all' from the 'my purchases' section but that still doesn't help, it just keeps the last three tracks downloaded in the music app.
I have the 'icloud' enabled and wondered if it had anything to do with that.
i have successfully downloaded another full album totally into the music app, but this first album is causing me problems. -
IPod freezing when scrolling down the music app?
I own a 3rd Generation iPod touch. I plugged it into my computer as usual, but when I decided to disconnect and start listening to the music I had recently put in, I realized that it wouldn't let me scroll very far. I wanted to listen to the Cream albums I had put in my iPod only to realize that I couldn't get past the A's in the list of artists, and if I attempted to go any farther down, it would freeze and crash the music app. My playlists were also wiped blank on my iPod even though they would appear just fine on iTunes when I'd plug in my iPod again.
I've tried resetting and restarting the iPod, closing the music app, and so on, but so far nothing seems to have worked. I don't want to end up having to restore my iPod, because I've a lot of music scattered across different computers and it would be a pain, to say the least, to get that and all the saved photos restored again. Is there anything else I can do?
Thank you,
ClysteNo.
