Windows 8.1, iOS 8.1.3, Itunes 12.1 64 bit, constantly get 'waiting for changes to apply' when trying to sync my new ipod touch

Windows 8.1, iOS 8.1.3, Itunes 12.1 64 bit, constantly get 'waiting for changes to apply' when trying to sync my new ipod touch. Downloaded latest version f itunes, and ipod software up to date. Really frustrated I can't sync my music! Please can someone help me

Im having huge issues after updating to 12.1 on Win 8.1 x64. Choppy playback and so on.
Try this since it helps in most situtation :
Remove itunes but keep library files. Then download it again and install it.
Also most likely you will have to restore ipod touch. I restored my iPhone 5 to remove waiting for changes to apply and Error 54.
my iPad air still isnt restored (cant do it now) and it sometimes does same like iPhone waiting for changes to apply. And gives error 54 but sync DOES GET COMPLETED.
Also may sound stupid but try to use USB 2.0 Ports. Not 3.0. I have troubles when using 3.0

ITunes locks up when trying to set up new iPod Touch

I just got a new computer that is 64-bit and runs on Windows 7...I downloaded iTunes today and set up an account and transfered purchased songs from my old iPod to my new computer. I plugged in my new 32g iPod touch and I am wanting to not register it. When I get to the screen that lets me name my iPod and check prefrences on what to sync I hit done and iTunes locks up. I have to go to task manager to shut it down. PLEASE HELP!!! I have had this iPod touch for a week and was waiting on new computer...got new computer but cant get iPod to work!!!

Yes, worth a try. It's probably worth doing a complete uninstall of all related programs too, prior to reinstalling iTunes. for instructions on that, see:
[Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923]
Note ... at the time of me making this reply, the instructions in there aren't quite complete for 64-bit systems. After step 14 of *Verify iTunes and related components are completely uninstalled,* I'd also include the following two steps:
(14-1/3) Open the Common Files folder.
(14-2/3) Right-click the Apple folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
(There's a Common Files folder where Apple stuff is stashed in the program files folder as well as the Program files (x86) folder.)

ITunes 11.3.1 not responding when trying to sync first generation iPod touch

Hi,
I just updated my iTunes to 11.3.1 and now I cannot sync my first generation iPod touch. It gets to step 4 of 4 (syncing music) and on the first song iTunes stops responding. I have a Mac.
Please can someone help me on how i can get my iPod to sync as normal?
Thanks

Same problem here plus I can't sync to my iPad mini. Has Apple messed up the latest release?

Update: after disconnecting and reconnecting iPad I got that working

HT1386 I recently purchased an album from itunes. When I subsequently sync'ed my ipod touch I ended up with all tracks of that album doubled on my ipod and I lost all my playlists. Subsequent syncing has not fixed it. Any ideas what to try?

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.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

ITunes 11.1.1 will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to applied"

iTunes 11.1.1 running on MacBook Air will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to be applied". I have been having this issue since upgrading to 11.1. I thought the upgrade to 11.1.1 will take care of it

Yes, my iPhone 5 running ios 7 will not sync in *any* way with itunes now. I can neither add nor remove content via itunes. I just tried to delete 100% of my music from my iphone, it hung forever on "Waiting for changes to be applied" and then when it was finally done... no changes had been applied.
I can't add, remove, change, delete or in any way of any kind sync my iphone with itunes any longer.
I'm becoming the person who refuses to update to the new Apple OS. I used to get very excited about new OS updates. That all ended around Mountain Lion. Yesterday when I saw that Mavericks was out I wasn't excited. Instead I felt a sense of dread, and for good reason. Every time they release an OS in the last few years it's just a cluster-F.

Even though the diagnostics aren't showing errors for it, I think it's probably still worth checking on your USB drivers, as per the following document:

ITunes Freezes when I try to sync my new iPod Touch

I can't sync my new iPod with my iTunes library. I have posted in the iTunes forum, although my title says that I have solved the issue. It isn't, so I'm contemptlating reposting.
I bought a 64gig iPod Touch the other day to replace an old broken iPod. When I try to sync it with my main iTunes library, after a short while (5-500 songs) iTunes freezes and won't shut down. I have on a couple of occasions got a message saying the the computer can't write to the iPod, or the iPod isn't responding, or an "Unknown Error".
It seems to work fine with my laptop.
I found a page on fixing "Unknown Errors" and have tried most of the suggestions.
I've tried:
*) Uninstalling and Reinstalling iTunes several times
*) Resetting and restoring my iPod several times
*) Updating my drivers - they are all up to date apparently
*) Stopping all unnecessary programs and services from running on start up
*) Creating a new user account and trying to sync my iPod from there. I have successfully managed to sync the iPod with a small number of songs or a film on my own account, so I need to test it with a fairly big library. I copied my main iTunes library into iTunes on the new account. The sync hasn't worked (although it is syncing the same files).
I found a post with a google search that suggested it could be a power drain on my USB port / Bus, or somet fhing like that. Not sure exactly what that means, but it sounded plausible. I have recently upgraded my graphics card.
I did also see a solution posted that suggested formatting the iPod using My Computer and the iPod icon, but I can't imagine that would do anything more than the restore iPod option in the iPod menu?
Can anyone help? Getting a bit fed up now... I've had the iPod a couple of weeks and have barely been able to use it yet.

Are you using security software on your PC? If yes, try to disable the software or check the settings. More info here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

How can I sync my new ipod touch with my itunes 9.2.1 itunes

Ok I have got a mac mini running os 10.4.11 at 1.25ghz 1 gb and have a new 4th gen ipod touch I can't sync it to my itunes 9.2.1 please tell me I can get this to work without paying any more out!!!

Thanks Jim I thought I might have to upgrade software but to be honest I was looking at investing in a new Mac in the summer but wanted a cheap fix to get my thousands of tunes that i have bought from Itunes onto my new ipod touch Ironically I have a samsung Galaxy s2 I use for work which interfaces with my mac no problem... I find it very odd apple are treating there own customers in this way making me upgrade to interface with their own products!! Which after having macs for the last 20 years i am doubting my decision to carry on with my loyalty to a brand that is doing this!!
Sorry not your problem.. thanks for the advise.

Syncing a new iPod Touch in a different iTunes library

I just bought an iPod Touch (4g) this afternoon and now I'm ready to set it up on my Macbook.
I already have an iphone 3g synced up to my itunes library. But now I want to create a new library for the ipod so i don't have to keep checking and unchecking songs, apps, etc... when i go to sync either one.
In other words, I want to keep them separated! So, I successfully created and named a new itunes library by pressing the OPTION button and opening itunes.
Now, the library is blank...so how do I get the songs from my ORIGINAL library into the ipod touch library???
Is it as simple as copying and pasting the music folders from the ORIGINAL into the new ipod touch libraries' folder??? Or do I have to redownload everything and insert all my cds again an rip away?
I doubt that I have to do this since I'm using the same account and username. Just want to make sure before I set up the Touch that this is the proper procedure and save me the agony of screwing it up
If anyone knows how to do this, I would appreciate the tip. Thank You!

Good idea. How would I deal with Apps though? If I wanted different Apps on my Touch, won't I have to check mark and then uncheck mark for each device??
I only want certain Apps on the Touch. Can I make playlists for Apps too? Anyway, thanks for your help roaminggnome. I appreciate it.

Have 4S and when syncing with iTunes using WiFi I get waiting for change to be applied. But this seems to never end. I have waited for an hour and still getting message.

Have been attempting to sync my iPhone 4S with iTunes using WiFi. It appears to complete the 5 or 6 syncs, but then waiting for change to be applied comes up and it never completes the sync. Waiting for changes to be applied continues for every.

ALSO, on the iPod under Settings>General>iTunes Sync, you may need to back out of the "iTunes Wi-fi Sync," and reopen it to get it to update.
(I use iTunes 11.1.5.5)

Itunes sticks on "preparing to update" when I transfer music to new Ipod touch 5th generation 64 GB

Do you have iTunes version 11 installed on the iPod?
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar.
Does the iPod charge?

I purchased a itunes card and brought music on my PC now I'm trying to sync to my ipod touch & it's not working can someone help me?

I purchased a itunes card an downloaded the new itunes version on my PC. I then went to the itunes Store and purchased music. Now I'm trying to sync it onto my ipod touch and it is not working. What am I doing wrong?

What exactly happens when you place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes?
