Won't sync...Please Help!!

Hey,
I am really starting to get a little nervous!!
My 80G 5th gen Ipod (that I have had no problems with for the past year & half),
is giving me a little trouble.
When I connect to I-tunes it,
it won't sync and I get the message,
"the disk cannot be read from or written to".
I have the latest updated version on my I-pod, (1.3, I think)
but I haven't updated I-tunes for a while (I am running 7.4.2(4)),
cause I had been hearing about some problems with some of the I-tunes updates as of late.
I reset my I-pod several times,
but I really don't want to have to restore it.
I have a lot of movies & podcasts on it
that are no longer in my I-tunes library.
What else beside praying can I do to try and fix it?
Any & all help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thank you,
Todd

You have three choices:
1.Go to Apple or Firedog (in Circit City) and pay to retreive your data and restore your iPod
2.If the computer can read the iPod, get Aimersoft iPod Copy Manager and save your data to a folder then open Explorer or whatever you use in Mac to save other files
3.Get a new iPod....
I hope this helps! azureVinh.webs.com

IPOD TOUCH 4th GEN WON'T SYNC PLEASE HELP!!!

Hi I have a refurb ipod touch 4th gen, I bout it a little over 4 months ago and have sync-ed it with the same emac g4 running 10.5.8 iTunes 10.2(at time of purchase) to 10.4(today) and abruptly today I plugged it in, and my computer will not recognize it in the slightest. I followed instructions and guides and trouble shooters, and put it in recovery mode, dfu mode and plugged it into all the computers in the house, from 2010 MacBook to lenovo running ubuntu. It still charges using my wall charger, bit WON'T EVEN CHARGE When I connect it to the computer. and I would leave well enough alone except I want to sync new music and update iOS 5 when it comes out. But as stated before I have tried all I can, even looking into jailbreaking. PLEASE HELP I JUST BOUGHT THIS, if you can help in any way please do

I Have Now For 5 Days Tried Everything On Apples Website, MacRumors, MacHeads, Etc. And Still Nothing, Although In Windows it Comes up with "USB Device Not Recognized" And When In Device Manager I Right Click on "Unknown Device" And Click Properties, And Its USB ID is All Zeros, Apple Had an article on this but i did all that was stated and still nothing.
The Nearest 'Apple Certified' Genius Bar is At a Computer Store, but, Unlike Apple Stores; Diagnostics on ipods is $15 and then more to Fully Repair, So i Think I'll Call Apple First. haha
thanks

My iPod won't sync- PLEASE HELP!

Usually, when I plug my iPod into my computer, it automatically syncs itself. But lately, whenever I plug my iPod in, all it does is charge, it won't sync anything into my iPod. I've cleaned the USB cord and have checked my memory. It is NOT full. Could somebody please help?

I starting having the same problem all of a sudden two days ago. Not only won't my IPod Nano not sync automatically, but the Sync option under the "File" drp-down menu is shaded gray and inactive. I tried resetting the IPod, and no change...I ran the ITunes diagnostics and got an error message that says I have no device connected, yet the computer still charges the IPod through the USB connection. Unable to download any new music from ITunes, yet my ITunes account is still active; I still have my ITunes library and I can still purchase songs. I wonder is this an IPod problem or an ITunes problem?

it is an itouch, i buy apps from the app store, they are purchased, they show up in my app section but when i try to sync them to my itouch they do not show up in on the itouch. i have tried to atuthorize and deauthorize the computer also few times, rebooted computer and still nothing. when i restore the firmware and have everything reinstall all over again the apps music and such, all show up. however if i buy a new app and try to sync it with the itouch it does not show up despite the fact that the computer states 'installing "......" whatever app. it happens with numerous apps, there is no rhyme and reason to why certain apps just do not show up on the itouch. the authorize/deauthorize deal does nothing to rectify the situtaion. any other ideas ?

I would restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod on your computer and start over. It appears the iPod is associated with another account. Any media that came with the iPod does not belong to you and di not transfer with the iPod hardware.

"I was thinking I would just connect my iPhone and all of my music and other stuff would transfer to the new computer. "
Not true. The music and pic sync is one way - computer to iphone. The only exception is itunes purchases. Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
You really should transfer everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your computer. Since you do not have access to the old computer, then use your backup copy of the old computer.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer ( not good), then you would have to transfer itunes purchased as described earlier. Any other itunes content would be lost.
You can e-mail photo library pics to yourself, but they will not be of the original quality.
Before syncing, enter at least one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. When you first sync, then you should get the option to merge the data.

I updated to iOS 5 and now my iPod Touch 3g won't sync. Help?

My iTunes told me to update to iOS5, so I did. I saved a backup, got the new OS and it restored my iPod.
The problem is that it didn't actually restore it. None of my music or apps was on my iPod. So I tried syncing it. No such luck.
I tried changing USB ports, restarting iTunes, restarting my iPod and restarting my computer. I tried syncing it again. It didn't work.
So I restored my iPod again, or at least tried to, and it told me that there was an error and the restore didn't finish. All of the apps synced, but none of my music.
I tried restoring and syncing again, and this time around the apps synced and maybe 10% of my music.
That's my issue. I can't for the life of me get all of my music to sync. None of the songs have error messages and there aren't any pop ups during the sync saying there's issues with the songs. They just. won't. sync. And now in order to talk to a tech, I'll have to pay $29 for something that is most definitely not my fault. Please help!

And, I've tried restoring it! Help?!?

I have a 6gb micro and it won't work, please help

first off, the thing worked fine for the first day! i used microsoft media player to sync some songs to it without installing the software. well, the battery died, remembering it only has a 2 hour battery life! thing is, it wouldn't charge when it was hooked up the computer, it wouldn't even recognize it, so i called customer service and after an hour of being on hold, the lady tells me to install the software and it would work fine. when i did that, guess what, it didn't! it did the same thing, it wouldn't recognize the player and the player would not charge. i would think it was the usb cord, but the battery gets really hot, but the thing just won't turn on and the computer won't recognize it! please help me!

It's strange. How did you even manage syncing without installing the software on your computer - i mean, the computer has to recognise it before it can start processes.
Nevertheless, here is a thread which might prove to be useful in making your player recognized: http://forums.creative.com/creativel...message.id=723

ITunes Library lost, "new" one created, but now my iPod won't sync. HELP!!

My brother had been messing around on my computer, and something happened to iTunes. At first, it wouldn't open at all. The only way I could access it was to hunt through my files in my MacHD. When it finally opened, there was NOTHING in it! I managed to find my songs, and load them back into the library, but now, it won't let my sync my iPod. The message "The iPod "Kayla's iPod" is in use by another user on this computer." I tried to find/restore this 'other' library/user, but the only iTune file that opens is then new one. How can I access and sync my iPod through the new library?? Please help!

The only solution I can think of apart having computer administrative privileges and switching users to strictly use your brothers iTunes Library would be to reset your iPod. Maybe that will deauthorize your brother's Library enabling you to start from scratch.
If you haven't already, try this http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
If that works, you're going to need this application http://ipoddisk.ourbiti.com/ to transfer any music not purchsed from the iTunes Store from your iPod to your iMac.

Itunes 10 Installs but won't open - Please Help

I had Itunes 10 installed working on my computer. I installed a program which also installed an older version of Quicktime which I think was version 6.5. The next time I tried to open Itunes it said I needed verion 7.5 of Quicktime to open Itunes please reinstall Itunes. Now comes the problem. I have installed and uninstalled Itunes about 10 times, everytime it install ok but does not open when I click on the icon. The itunes.exe file opens in task manager for a few seconds then closes. I have searched a few places for solutions with no avail. I have tried the correct order of removing apple programs and deleting temp folder and internet cache. I have tries msconfig but can't find any of the programs which have affected other users. I have tried creati9ng another user account for windows but Itunes still won't open. Can anyone please help. My computer is Windows 7 32 bit. Thank in advance.

No, the program I installed was Winavi MP4 which coverts video to ipod psp format etc.
Ack, that one's just as bad. It's been causing this sort of grief for iTunes users for over five years now.
What it has probably done here is drop old versions of QuickTime componentry in unorthodox locations on the PC (usually down in your operating system files). So we're going to go looking for that.
First we'll adjust some view settings on the PC.
1. From the Start menu, click Open.
2. In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
3. Click the View tab.
4. In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected, and the "Hide extensions for known file types" option is unchecked.
5. Click OK.
Now, in Computer, open your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "System32" folder.
What files or folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the file or folder name? (In a standard installation of QuickTime, you should see precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

"Ipod Cannot be Synced" -Please Help!!!

I must have spend hours reading forums and discussion boards trying to fix this.. No matter what I do to my Ipod or computer I get a "(My) Ipod could not be synced. Required disk could not be found." Please help me out!!

Sorry, I see your on a Windows machine. You would need to go to an Apple Store and plug it into a Mac. Then open the Disk Utility in the Utilities folder, select your iPod and click on Repair Disk.
Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
I take it you tried resetting and/or restoring your iPod?
