Does the iPod charge?
Have you tried another cable?
Another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem?

  • How you make recend uploads appear in the recently added folder

    When adding to itunes library, how do you make the selections appear in the recently added folder.  The folder was deleted but rebuilt.

    It is a mixed playlist and finally I came up with an answer; it might sound strange but I woke up from a nap with all correct settings figured out.
    This is what I did:
    I had to specify a subset for every podcast or I would end up with every episode available on my library which in turn would reach the limit I set but that's OK. I noticed though, that podcast won't sync to iTunes Match, which is a bummer, but still they sync over Wi-Fi. This is what I got finally:
    Thanks for all your help!

  • I cannot access the recently added folder in Instagram on my iPad.  Any ideas why?

    when trying to access photos  on my iPad in Instagram I can access my shared photo streams but not the recently added folder and the photos taken on my iPhone.  Any ideas?

    Hello wintergreenchip,
    The troubleshooting steps detailed below can help get your Photo Stream working correctly.
    Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they're older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so your devices might not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream. Due to storage limitations, your Apple TV might display only your most recent photos.
    If you want to have the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices and delete the older photos:
    If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
    Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (or Photo Stream in iOS 6).
    Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
    Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
    Repeat these steps for each device.

  • Restore the "recently added" folder

    In iTunes I deleted the icon/folder "recently added" for some strange reason so I tried to get it back by adding a custom folder by the same name but iTunes won't put recently added stuff in there [i understand that] I can't figure out how to restore the default folder. I bet others have done this with other folder icons too so you could kill a couple of birds with a couple of clicks.

  • ITunes successfully syncs iPod with no errors, but nothing shows up on iPod

    I plug in my new 80g iPod to by synced, and iTunes "successfully" syncs the iPod.
    I look on my iPod to see if the songs were transfered and my iPod is still completely blank!
    So I plug in my iPod again to see if I can find a problem, and the "Capacity" bar on the bottom of the iPod screen in iTunes shows all my music and video file space as 'Other' data.
    What is going on here?
    I tried to restore the iPod and the same thing happens.

    Hi!
    I got the same problem since today.
    My Ipod contains 74,37Gb in total and Itunes says 56,6 PHOTOS, 61,66 OTHER and 12,66 FREE SPACE. But this afternoon I saw I had about 700 Mb free space. I don't know what happened today, but I can only see the PHOTOS on my Ipod, no music and no video's.
    Can't find the solution...
    Best regards,
    JJ

  • If I purchase an iPod touch from somewhere other than Apple, can I buy and put an AppleCare plan on it?

    I want to purchase an iPod touch from Target, but I think that the AppleCare warranty plan is better than the one that Target offers.

    So if I purchase the AppleCare plan right now to go along with my iPod, do I just go through the AppleCare registration process to get everything set up?

  • HT4527 I have my entire music library (purchased and burnt CD's) on my iPod Touch from one computer and I wanted to sync it all to my new computer. I was hoping it would all transfer via sync when I plugged it in but it doesn't seem to work. Please help?!

    Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
    Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
    But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
    If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
    I can't  download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
    You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
    If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

  • I have just got an iPad and I want the music to be transferred through my iPod touch using iCloud but I didn't get the music from iTunes so I don't think it will let me do it. Do you have any tips that could help me?

    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
    Photos that were synced from a computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. If you want to remove them all then normally you could just sync an empty folder (in terms of photos) to the iPad, but as you don't want to sync at the moment you can't do that.
    You can reset the iPad back to factory settings and start from scratch with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings

  • I had my computer wiped and they accidentally wiped my itunes! I have a iPod touch gen 3 but i cant now download or put more music on, without the whole thing being wiped, and I have spent a lot of money on songs and apps!

    I had my computer wiped and they accidentally wiped my itunes! I have a iPod touch gen 3 but i cant now download or put more music on, without the whole thing being wiped, and I have spent a lot of money on songs and apps! Does anyone have an ideas about what I could do, to prevent all my things deleting, because I won't be spending more money on apps that I have already purchased once!!
    Thank you,

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
