Why won't MPEG files sync to my iPod touch 5 anymore?

I have an ipod 5 that I just got for Christmas, which was only a month ago. I have been syncing my iPod to my iTunes just fine up until yesterday. A lot of my music on my iTunes is stuff I've downloaded in a youtube to mp3 converter and then opened with iTunes. These files have synced to my iPod previously with no problem. Now, new songs I download with the youtubemp3 converter won't go onto my iPod and ones that were already on my iPod won't play. I've already tried converting the MPEG files to AAC, restoring my iPod, resetting my iPod, and trying to manually manage my music. None of that has worked. I'm open to any suggestions. Please help me! Thanks.

I'm having the exact problem, what did you do if you remember? I got mine yesterday.

  • Why won't my itunes sync with my ipod touch since the recent update

    A vast majority of my music syncs...but several albums won't sync.  I have tried manual, checking every fricking box...and they still won't load to my ipod...Do you think Apple has something against the Rolling Stones???
      Michael

    I'm on iOS 7.1.2, iTunes 11.3.054, sync stopped working about a week ago.
    when it starts the backup phase it dies, gets stuck there and won't recover.....
    tried a restore, same issues, dies at backup and won't proceed.
    I've restarted & power cycled everything a few times, tried turning off icloud, find my phone, airplane mode, etc, no joy.

  • Why won't mpeg files work in FCP 7?

    I was given mpeg movie files (codecs: MPEG-2 Video, MPEG Layer 3) to edit in FCP 7. I tried opening them up in FCP but it woldn't play. So I decided to convert the files in MPEG STREAMCLIP to Apple ProRes 422. Now when I import it into Final cut, I can hear the audio but the screen is still black.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Any adivce is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Read my MPEG Streamclip tutorial: http://www.secondchairvideo.com/?p=694
    MPEG files can't be used in FCP because they use a "Long GOP" structure - You can only edit on frame 1, 15, 30 etc. frame 2-14 etc cannot exist without frame 1. Now you know the basics, use the resources here and elsewhere on the internet to find out more.
    Can you view the ProRes files in QuickTime Player?

  • ITunes 10.5 won't update files properly on my iPod Touch 4G running iOS 5, how can I fix this?

    I recently updated iTunes to 10.5 and my iPod Touch 4G to iOS 5, but now when I try to edit the ID3 tags or artwork of songs on my
    iPod using iTunes, iTunes just says "Preparing to update files" but it never actually updates them. When I try to add songs
    manually to iPod (my iPod is not set up to sync music with iTunes [see note below]), the same thing happens, with the newly added
    songs appearing on the iPod library but are grayed out with a still loading icon next to them. Also, in some instances when I try
    to change the artwork of all the songs on an album, it grays out the songs I tried to change, puts an exclamation mark by them,
    and applies those changes to other songs on my iPod! And if I delete the songs I attempted to change it deletes the songs that
    were received the artwork change. The songs that were unintentionally changed somehow got overwritten by the songs I was trying to
    change while retaining the original tags of the songs that were changed. Not sure if I'm explaining this clearly so let me give an
    example: song A is a song on an album on my iPod, song B is on song on a completely different album on the iPod. When I change the
    artwork on song A, it somehow messes up my library and song A overwrites song B, but it keeps all of song B's ID3 tags. So I don't
    know song B is song A until I play song B, at which point the ID3 tags are changed to the tags of the song A, and song B is just
    disappears. This only started happening after updating to iTunes 10.5 and iOS 5. Not sure if the problem is caused by iTunes 10.5
    or iOS 5, but I did search online and found someone with the exact same problem effecting their iTunes 9.1 (no iPod involved). 
    Can someone please tell me why this is happening and how I can fix it?
    Note:
    I add songs manually to iPod because I don't keep my music on my PC and sync my music with iTunes because it would take up too
    much space and I want to be able to add songs on my iPod from other computers. Once you set it up to sync music I believe it
    disables making any changes to your iPod with iTunes on other computers.

    okay, I don't know about the rest, but about the songs never actually loading onto your iPod, I found in another discussion how to fix that. I'm using Windows 7, so I don't know if the steps are the same, but the end result is the same. So go into your Start menu, then into accessories, right click 'Command Prompt' and click 'Run as administrator'. Then type in the following: netsh winsock reset then press Enter. After a few seconds it should tell you to to restart your computer for changes to take effect. Restart your computer, then restart iTunes, then everything should be working fine. It still takes forever sometimes to update the iPod, but eventually it will work. I've had to do this multiple times, so I'd suggest copying & pasting this solution into a notepad or Word document and saving it on your computer, so you don't have to go through the discussions again to find it. This tends to happen to me nearly every day unfortunately Hope this fixes that problem, but I'm not having any of the other problems fortunately, except for removing the artwork of the songs it updates without me asking it too. PS I think my problem may be with iOS 5, because iTunes 10.5 came out before iOS 5, and I think everything was fine before I updated my iPod, but I really don't know where the problem lies

  • Why isn't the itunes app on my ipod touch anymore?

    My iPod doesn't have the iTunes app, but I know I used to have it. Now, I only have it on my iPad.
    I don't know why the app isn't present on my iPod, but I do need it there.

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPod has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • How can i sync my new ipod touch to a mac ibook

    I have an i new ipod touch and have a mac ibook g4 with an operating system of 10.4.11 and for some reason it won't let me sync my new ipod touch to my itunes. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Yo need to upgrade OSX to 10.5.8. The system requirements for the new 4G iPod Tough are:
    System requirements
    USB 2.0
    iTunes 10.1 or later6
    Mac: Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    PC: Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional (SP3) or later
    Broadband Internet access required; fees may apply.
    You can get it on eBay, maybe Craig's list and from the Apple store. However, it is not offered in the on-line Apple store so you will have to call. The price is $129.

  • Why won't my itouch sync with my windows computer?

    So recently I updated from IOS 4.2.1 to IOS 5.0.1 and found my windows xp computer would not sync with my ipod touch as i kept on getting an error. Well i download itunes on my windows 7 computer and it worked fine. Now when i try to plug in my ipod touch in my windows xp itunes wont even detect the itouch. Anyone have a clue to why this is? I have looked on the requirements for itunes 10 and im pretty sure my laptop meets up to it. Is it a driver issue? or what? I had a lot of stuff on the backfile when it was in IOS 4.2.1 and i don't wanna lose my files. I will downgrade to a earlier software if i have to but please can anyone help me with my problem??

    That is really not a good ideal since if your iPod crashes you will loose your iTunes purchased music since it is not on your computer and you only get one download of music.

  • Really need help here!-Why won't all selected Photos sync to my iPod Touch?

    This is really a concern to me: I can only get about 9 months of my iPhotos to sync onto my iPod Touch - but with OS 2.x I could get all the photos-- used essentially all my free space.
    I just upgraded my first generation iPod Touch (Dec 2007) to 3.1.2 - OK WiFi and apps updates working fine- but as to syncing photos: I have 15,688 photos & videos from my cameras in my iPhoto library.
    I don't expect to have all the photos synced, but when I check last 12 months, only about 9 months is synced - 5899 photos and there is 4.9 gb of free space on my iPod Touch. With OS 2.x I could get more photos and it would go down to just a few mb of free space if I wished.
    What is going on here? Why so much free space and yet no more photos syncing? I tried to click ALL EVENTS and that simply erased all my 5899 photos and there were NO PHOTOS. So now I went back and requested last 12 months of events (about 138 separate events from end 2008 until present) - and again, exactly 5899 photos yet still some 33% of my iPod capacity is UNused?
    This is really a concern to me-- if a corrupted photo or event, then why did it work just last week when I was in iPod Touch OS 2.x?
    Thanks for any suggestions here. I'm trying manual syncs and other stuff - so far no luck.

    First a really big THANKS - I was not aware that this iPod Photo cache folder existed and it had grow to over 15 gb in size! (Now it is 3.85 gb in size).
    BUT BUT-- problem not solved... Although I trashed that file and then re-synced my iPod Touch, it is still only going back to July 2009 with the events - not 12 months as I request; and none of the events that I checked prior to the previous 12 months are not on my iPod Touch, first generation running system 3.1.3 (7E18). I STILL HAVE 3.0 gb of available space on my iPod. Again, I never had this problem when 2.x was the OS for my iPod Touch.
    The number of events seems to be exactly 51 - is that perhaps a limit? I don't think it would be but when I look inside the iPod Photo cache folder, there are 51 folders (plus 2 other items) and the folders are numbered from F00 to F50.
    I would like to get to the bottom of this - not sure if I should start a new post or ??? Thanks again and any ideas or tests to run really appreciated!
