I just found a solution for if your phone or pod was already on Unsync....just delete all the current songs you;ve added as far as you can remember you had this problem :)
Question, I have a different issue. I get an error as soon as I plug my ipod in. Itunes needs to be manually started and it will say "This ipod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device Service is not started." How do I fix this? Please, I really need help.
Well I can see where this would work, UNLESS you have more music in your itunes library than your touch/iphone has capacity for, then what? Who wants to go through the time and hassle of having to erase all your music. This is all apples fault for making products obsolete like a 1rst gen touch, I never got that error until I found it and synced it, and it totally screwed my iphone 4 because of mis-matched OS versions. So basically they want you to throw away aperfectly good touch to get a new 1
I just got my computer reformatted and forgot to get all my music saved and my dad brought it home completely wiped so I have nothing on it, it was okay because I could still put music on the iPod, just not get it from the iPod to the computer. But not I have the Error 13019 and I can't sync it at all and if I restore it all my music will go. Is there a way I can fix it another way or save all my music to the computer? HELP PLEASE, it's driving me insane!
@thevampanezelord rodriguez4710 below made the suggestion of checking your ipod for duplicates. Do you sync manually? If so, look in your ipod's library for any duplicates of the same song or video or movie etc. I did this and it worked!
For anyone that manually syncs their iPod, i had the same error popping whenever i tried to sync my iPod. Check your iPod and see if there are any duplicate songs. For me this was the case, i deleted one of the duplicates. Then when i sync everything works perfectly. So check if you have any duplicates.
@rodriguez4710 You seriously have just made my entire week. I always get so upset and afraid when iTunes has yet ANOTHER problem for me to overcome, especially since most people auto-sync and I find it difficult getting solutions. Your comment completely fixed my issue! I'm so thankful! Thank you so much!
this happened to my ipod, and my brother had gotten a brand new ipod with nothing on it yet and we tried both and got this error, i reset the library on mine and it fixed both? haha idk but thanks for solving this issue for me.
i've done all of this and nothing! i've synced without music...i've unchecked the sync button..it was actually never checked..and still nothing...=/ any help anyone??? i try to change playlist or delete some..but when i disconnect it..my ipod shows no changes i have the newer ipod nano btw. if that helps..
My prob is a bit more complicated than this....i tried to add an album into my iPod Nano (5th gen) and thats when the error popped up.Whenever i see my nano on iTunes, it has the album i tried to put on there, but when i eject it and scroll thrru my music, the album isn't on there...PLZ HELP -___-
@skate7264 Lmfao, not dissing you but I completely understand your frustration! I'd lose my shit if all my music was gone. Fucking iTunes and their countless problems. They need to get their act together.
dude this really worked! :D thanks soo much xD me and my friend were trying to make it work for so long, so we finally said f*** it and turned to youtube! sooo thank u sooo much again!
I love you. Was getting ready to go to school, and couldn't get any of my new songs, was like NOOO! But currently in the process of fixing it, also it is on Ipod touch as well.
I had songs on my ipod to begin with but wanted to download my new purchases so I did your method. I unsynced and when I tried to re-sync the same error came up again. Now I have 0 songs!!! I can't fix it!
@stephxdancer iTunes has a purchased list in which you can download again, but this only deletes the music from your device not the computer so you should be safe
I have a question: I'm actually on a new laptop and haven't been able to sync my iPod since July...my old laptop with all my iTunes library is completely dead and is near impossible to get the music from again. If I do this, will it delete all my music and not be replaced? I asked at the apple store and they seemed to think so...
I have the sane question as @LemonsSqueak I manually manage mine, and it was fine for about 20mins then all of a sudden, I started getting this error message. Im almost in tears thats how frustrated I am. >_________<
@princess100288 I'm in the same boat!!! So frustrating cause i only have a fraction of my ipod music that is stored in my itunes library so if i do this I lose a large percentage of my music!!
@princess100288 I know, I got my error out of nowhere! I'd began experiencing songs that didn't play on my ipod, corrupt files I'm guessing but I deleted them, and then a day later or so I get this error. I don't know what to do, I'm not prepared to delete everything and sync auto because auto sync is shit IMO, as well as iTunes and Apple itself -.-
okay.. so i tried to update my ipod. it told me to update itunes first. so i did, and restarted my computer, clicked on itunes, and tried to update my ipod. it told me to update itunes Again. whats wrong?? please message me back :)
How do I fix this if I manually manage my music? I never sync it, I click and drag songs onto my iPod. How can I fix this without having to lose all my music?
It does not work. Ive had this problem before and what you and most have suggested did not work. I went through various processes of unsyching and resynching, restoring and even updating. Finally from some stoke of luck it worked again. Now about a month later I am having the same issues. I refuse to restore my Ipod again. The last time I did that, It totally messed up my music. Wrong artwork everywhere, wrong music under the titles and it deletes those songs if you click on them in the library.
thnx man, preciate it
