Why will my gen2 ipod no longer sync podcasts. I can still download from music from itunes itunes

Why is my ipod gen2 no longer syncing podacasts. They appear on itunes page but will not transfer to ipod. Music is still working fine. Thank you.

If at all possible, copy your entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527). Otherwise, you will lose and music that was not purchased from the iTune store unless you use 3rd party software such as Touch Copy to transfer it to your new computer. See this article for how to move to a new computer with minimal or no data loss: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.

I'm an applications developer and also run a part-time videography business. As such, I require more than 3.12GB of RAM. That is the physical limitation of a 32bit system. Pointless to stay on 32bit if you plan on having more than that much RAM.
I'm also not about to pay someone to fix my PC when I can do it myself. I was originally hoping for someone who had experienced the problem before to point me in the right direction so I didn't have to spend so much time trying to figure out what the issue was for myself.
Basically, in the end the problem was caused because right at the point in time when I chose to uninstall, and reinstall; Apple released a new version of iTunes. This version in turn had a requirement of iOS 4.2 to sync with the iPhone. This is a pretty embarrassing for Apple that they would release software reliant on other software before said software was released.
Had I realised I was downloading a newer version at the initial point of installation, this wouldn't have been an issue. I could've easily have rolled back iTunes to the previous version and gotten on with my life.
Another issue is that iTunes is not actually a 64 bit application. It masquerades as one to allow installation on the 64 bit platform.

HT1386 my classic ipod did not sync all of the recent downloads from the ipod store? how can i fix?

i just downloaded a complete album. when i sync my pod it only downloaded half of the songs. they are on my laptop library. they just won't sync to my pod.

See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
You can't merge iTunes accounts, but iPods & iOS devices can hold protected content from up to five accounts, so you shouldn't really need to.

IPod classic 120gb - can't download from itunes

I sync the ipod to my mac, open it and DON"T get a management screen that I've read about. It just opens in finder. What is shown to be on the ipod is not what actually is. My problem is, I'm trying to download music from itunes onto it. When I do it shows up in the finder window as being on the ipod, but isn't. What can I do? I'm willing to restore it but don't know how without a management screen, and will that help?

I think I FINALLY!!! got the solution. I did all that uninstalling, reinstalling, updating, deleting..yada yada...crap. Finally, I decided just to make a new folder in My Documents and named it "New Folder". I moved all my music from "MY Music" folder to this "New Folder". I deleted all the music in my Itunes program and reloaded it from the "New Folder". It seemed to work. Good Luck!

Why will my new iPad no longer sync my non-iTunes TV shows?

My original iPad, as well as my iPhone 4S, synced perfectly with iTunes 10.6. I usually use the option Sync 3 Oldest Unwatched for the TV Shows that I add myself, but this no longer works for my new iPad; it does not recognize non-iTunes TV shows in my sync settings, and refuses to sync any of them unless I manually select the episodes. What could be the problem here?

Thank you for your reply and your suggestion. I did try using a different cable. The original cable was one that had been working perfectly well just last week. ITunes is still not styncing.

Why will my iPhone 4S no longer sync?

My iTunes updated to 5.1.2 today. I then connected my iPhone 4S to my PC and no sync happened. My phone chirped and started charging, but iTunes did not open automatically. I opened the program manually and again connected my phone, still same results. I also tried turning my phone off and on. Is there something wrong with the new update to iTunes?

Thank you for your reply and your suggestion. I did try using a different cable. The original cable was one that had been working perfectly well just last week. ITunes is still not styncing.

HT1351 I have a Ipod Nano 5th edition and I can no longer sync, add or view my previously recorded music to itunes or windows. What can I do?

I have a Ipod Nano 5th edition. 2 years ago I imported and exported my music files to my Windows 7 laptop and also to Itunes. It worked great. Recently I've tried to do the same and now I can't do either. When I plug in my ipod it is discoverable but I cannot view my music at all. I tried to sync new music I burned from CD's to the ipod, I keep getting a message that the music is already on it but it's not. It's updated, settings I believe are set correct and troubleshooting it, it reports no problems. I don't know what else to do. Need Help! Thank you in advance.

Hey 9Cre114,
I would try out restoring your iPod nano, that might resolve the issue. Restoring erases the iPod's disk and restores iPod to its original factory condition. You can read about how to do so here:
Warning: Because restoring erases all the songs and files on iPod, back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.

The iPod has 4,530 songs and some playlists ... I don't want to lose this data.

IPod will no longer sync podcasts from iTunes store

Both our iPod and iPod Nano will no longer sync podcasts. We have downloaded new music, which will sync, but not the new podcasts from the iTunes store. iTunes indicates that it is syncing (which takes about 1 second) but the podcasts are not synced.
We have deleted all the existing podcasts and downloaded a single new one, with no change in the problem. We have tried both iPods and the result is the same.
We are running ESET NOD32 version 3.0 for Anti-Virus. We have checked with ESET and performed the exceptions that are known to cause problems with iTunes, and there has been no change, except that iTunes no longer freezes, which it previously did.
Hopefully someone out there can help us.

easiest way i have found to resolve the issue is go into itunes while phone is plugged in. you will have a list of tabs across, summery, info, ringtones, music. select music and where it displays sync music unselect that and hit apply in the bottom right (dont worry your music should be saved on the computer) once the sync is complete re check the music sync option. ive noticed this to work 95% of the time......hope this helps
I Hope I Was Able To Help You Or Solve Your Question.

Can't Find CD Music in iTunes But Still On iPod

Not sure this is iPod problem, but occurred after linking iTunes to a library. I first moved my iTune file to secondary drive to free up space & no problems playing back downloaded iTune songs and CD music copied to iTunes. I hooked up my iPod only when booted in the 2nd drive to download from iTunes. Then I moved the iTune folder to an external drive (firewire boot-able) and again no problems playing back any of the music. Again I only connected my iPod when booted in the external drive to download from iTunes. I found out from Apple Discussions how I could press option when opening iTunes to link to a different Library and both download files to play, and load them to my iPod. This way I did not have to reboot from my main drive just so I could download iTune files and/or listen to my music including CD imports that were located on the external drive. So, when I was on my main drive, I linked the iTune app to the library on the external drive and was able to download from iTunes and sync my iPod with no problem BUT!!! Now there is an exclamation point next to every imported CD title in my iTune folder and it says can't find the original file. I booted into the external drive and opened iTunes but the ! is still there etc. The music file is still loaded/playable in my iPod but I can't play it from the computer. So my question is...
WHAT HAPPENED AND HOW DO I FIX IT?

So I put all my music into the iTunes folder (copied it back from my external hard drive) but when I open iTunes, it doesn't "find" it.
If you didn't back up or restore the iTunes database files, you also need to drag the music into the open iTunes application window.
What are the chances that Apple will let me redownload all of her purchases?
Click here and ask.
And last question, I know that they only let you copy your music onto "5" computers.
For most purposes, that doesn't apply to recent song purchases.

Existing Ipod No Longer Syncing

I have an older version of the ipod nano. I recently imported a cd and downloaded the free single of the week into iTunes. When I go to sync my ipod, iTunes says that my ipod is syncing and then says ipod update is complete. On my ipod it will continuously flash a red no sign and say "Do Not Disconnect" underneath, even though in iTunes it says the update is complete. I have tried ejecting my ipod and when I look under the recently added folder or music folder my new songs aren't there.
Also, after I plug in the ipod and iTunes recognizes it under devices, the only screen it gives me is the "Register Your Ipod Screen". If I try to click on "Never Register" or "Register Later" the top of iTunes says "ipod update is complete" and won't change the screen. I eventually registerd my ipod and I still can't get to the ipod summary screen.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to get iTunes to add my new songs from my computer to my ipod, and how to allow me to view my ipod summary screen?? Sorry this is so long but I jsut wanted to include some details if anyone else has had this same problem and knows what to do. THANKS!

I forgot to post this info -- I just got a new laptop (Vista) and installed the latest version of itunes. I had my ipod plugged into the laptop (to see which version it required) and it was plugged in +while itunes installed+. NOW my ipod no longer syncs on my desktop. The desktop is Windows XP and has itunes version 6.something. Would this affect the 'syncing' process? WHAT THE HECK CAN I DO TO FIX IT? Please help me!!

HT1351 We had 2 computers: his itunes library on one, and mine on the other. We got rid of both of those and got a new computer. I put music on the new computer. My ipod songs are not on itunes. Will I erase them if I sync? How do I add new music?

HT2729 Why won't certain videos (downloaded from iTunes) sync on my iPod?

I have a new iPod Classic and it won't sync some of my videos. I've reset it. I've got everything checked. All files and videos play in my library. There all in the same location and files. Its After syncing I get the "some videos were not synced because the format is not supported". All the vids were downloaded from iTunes Store. WTH? Can anyone think of a solution? What is wrong?
Thanks,
WB

Hey Willm700,
Great question. iTunes defaults to downloading HD content when available, whereas your iPod classic is not compatible with HD playback. The solution would be to download the SD version of the content from your purchase history:
iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4223
The easiest way to put purchased videos onto your device is to download the videos from iTunes in the Cloud. This should make sure that you get the highest resolution video optimized for your specific device.
Syncing video to iPhone 3G or earlier, iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation), iPod classic, iPod 5th generation, or iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation):
Thanks,
Matt M.

You can transfer you iTunes purchases to your new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
You can only sync to one computer/iTunes library. You can manage music amond different computers by:
Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
If you wnat to make the new computer your syncing computer you must restore the iPod.
- See if you can make a backup of the iPod on the new computer by right clicking on the iPod in iTunes and select backup. If successsful, restore the iPod from that backup after tansfering your iTunes purchases to the new computer.
- If you can't make a backup copy/move the backup file from the old computer, That file is located:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
You may have to turn off hide hidden files.
If you do not have the backup file you have to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and sync your stuff to the iPod. You will loss all your app data.
