Why won't any of my music will transfer to my iPod touch with iOS7?

None of my music will transfer since updating iOS7. I had to do a software restore to even get the thing to sync the song titles, but not be able to play them. That's basically the whole purpose of an iPod, right? Music? Anyway, I refuse to do a firmware restore again.  I should not have to do that everytime I want to put music on my iPod. iTunes just sits there telling me that it's "waiting for changes to be applied." Well, I've come across calculators that operate faster than this thing.  It has been this way since noon EST.  The most frustrating part about this is that I have paid Apple, Inc. literally thousands (2) of dollars for a MacBook Pro and an iPod Touch 5. Soooo, yeah. iOS 6 and iTunes 11, worked awesome, best sync ever. iOS7 and iTunes 11.1? What the what happened and how do I fix it? And don'y say device restore, I will sooner donate it to the trash bin.

I spent forever today looking for this same answer.  VERY frustrating.
What I did was this:
In General Settings>go to RESET> Reset Network Settings.
Wait for the device to reboot as it disconnects and resets your router connection.
Then Reconnect to your wifi by using your password.
WORKS.
I had to reset my iphone 4s, my children's ipad minis AND my ipad 4.  Not impressed but it was the only thing that worked and at least it was fast.
Not sure why this happens, and thinking that whenever my router updates I will have to do this to them.  My husband's iphone 5 was unaffected however.  So weird.
Hope this works for you!

  • Purchased itunes music will not copy to ipod touch with windows

    I'm helping out a neighbor. They just got an ipod touch and when they set up the itunes they were able to transfer some music but when they purchased music from itunes and tried putting it on the ipod it won't go. Now no music will copy to the ipod. Does anyone know that they should do? I'm not much of a PC person but I think if I can get some direction I can help them out.

    If the non-syning ones play in iTunes on the coputer:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I have a MacPro without the updated IOS 7, just purchased an iPod Touch with IOS7, will I be able to download my iTunes library without upgrading my MacPro? I have to keep my computer on old system due to investigation of white collar hacker/frenemy.

    Allan Eckert, my guess is that my reply did not show up until the OPs posted her reply. That problem seems to have restarted this morning. See the post in the Lounge>Community Operations forum for more info.

  • Any App that will bi-directionally sync iPod Touch with Windows Desktop Outlook 2010 Tasks?

    Hi All
    iPod Touch 3rd gen iOS v 5.1.1
    iTunes (for Windows) v 10.7.0.21
    Windows 7 32 bit Desktop PC
    Outlook 2010 32 bit with POP3 mail server
    Appigo ToDo app on iPod Touch
    I reside in Canada
    I have been using Appigo's ToDo Task Manager app on my Touch for almost 3 years now. With their Appgio Sync conduit, I have been able to seemlessly bi-directionally sync between the Touch and Outlook Tasks on my Desktop. Now Appigo is no longer going to support Appigo Sync. I can keep using this sync conduit BUT I will no longer be able to update my Touch's ToDo app (eventually that will be a problem). 
    I DO NOT use iCloud and do NOT wish to use iCloud. I also do not wish to keep my tasks (which do contain confidential information) on anyone else's cloud server. Hence, I need the ability to direct sync between my Touch and my desktop.
    I've been searching the web and the App Store looking for either a way to keep using ToDo with another sync method, OR another app that will allow syncing between the it on the Touch and my Desktop.
    I don't care about syncing emails since they get downloaded on my Touch regardless. I don't care about syncing Calendars and Contacts since that happens whenever I sync my Touch to iTunes.  Just Outlook Tasks that need to be synced. I also don't care for Reminders - seems like a waste of space IMHO.
    I can't be the only person on the planet that doesn't want to use a cloud server, doesn't have an email exchange server and wants to keep tasks in both handheld device and desktop in sync. Please, please, please, any and all suggestions and help will be most appreciated!! IF I need to go to iOS v 6+, then I will need to purchase a new iPod Touch; a huge expense when the Touch I have is still working fine (but if one has to, one has to).
    Thanks a bunch

    I'm in a similar position. Just recently migrated to iPhone from Blackberry (and liking it) but would only do so after confirming that I could sync Outlook tasks to the iPhone. Using ToDo and Appigo sync was the solution and it has worked fine. And I deal with Calendar and Contacts in a similar fashion as you.
    I'm not sure I understand the options. I don't have a basic "cloud as a process objection" and cost isn't an issue.But I do want my tasks to end up synced on both my laptop (on the hard drive) and on my iPhone (and soon to come iPad). A variation on your question. Is there no way to do this?

  • Why won't apple make a special ios 7 for 4g ipod touch

    Im very disappointed in apple right now they had me all excited about ios and they never even tried to make it for ipod touch 4g. Is my ipod going to end up like the iPhone 3, and all the older stuff. If it does i will eventually switch over to microsoft and google.

    The hardware, as has been said here many times already, will not support iOS 7. Apple would have to strip so much out of iOS 7 to make it run effectively on a fourth-gen iPod touch that you would basically just have iOS 6 with different icons and fonts.
    As to switching to Microsoft and Google, by all means do so if you feel they'd serve you better, but Android and Windows Phone are far worse about supporting old hardware than Apple is with iOS, so check carefully before you buy.
    Regards.

  • HT2470 Why won't Itunes store my music library in my User/Music Folder, if I select my user name as a storage location in Itunes, Itunes creates folders for artist name right in my user folder, instead of in my user/music folder

    Why won't Itunes store my music library in my User/Music Folder? 
    If I select my user name as a storage location in Itunes, Itunes creates folders for artist name right in my user folder, instead of in my user/music folder.  This gets especially annoying because if I tell Itunes to store my "media" in my user/music folder, Itunes will then create a folder named "music" in my "music" folder and will also create additional folders in my user/music folder location to store other non-music media in as well. It is very annoying to see this lack of affinity for folders between two Apple created programs.

    Help iTunes locate your media folder:
    No content shows up in iTunes after updating

    Why won't Itunes play my music on my windows laptop?

    I was on the same boat, bud! I saw you had the exact same problem as I did and decided to come back to help you out.  On another apple discussion page, a user--Charlicharli-- posted a link to download and everything seems to be fine now.  Apparently we had to check with Lenovo.  We were looking in all the wrong places for the fix!

    You'll need to switch off iTunes Match on the device & sync the iPod with iTunes as hopefully you've kept all your music on your PC.

  • Why won't my computer's address book sync ALL of my contacts with my iPhone?  no MobileMe, no iCloud, just straight from computer to phone.

    Why won't my computer's address book sync ALL of my contacts with my iPhone?  No MobileMe, no iCloud, just straight from computer to phone.  I have checked all the settings and all seems correct.  It simply won't pull in all of the contacts.  Last time, it added some new ones, but deleted others.

    I found the route of the problem! All the songs under 'On This Phone' are completely grayed out! The only question is now how do I ungray them???

    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?

    Do the songs play in iTunes?
