I have an ipod touch and every time I try to download any apps or music it always says ''arthorization failed, please connect to itunes''. What should I do?

There are plenty of cloud service apps in the App Store, and some of them support to sync media files. With a cloud service app, you can transfer music from iPod touch to iPhone. Dropbox is regarded as one of the most popular cloud apps among iPhone and iPad users, and it provides 2GB for free use, so you can sync the songs from iPod touch to the cloud service, and enjoy them on iPhone.

1. Download and install Dropbox on iPod touch. Register an account and log in.
2. Click Add Files, and select the songs you want to transfer. Then click Upload.
3. Install Dropbox on iPhone as well, and log in with the same account. Then wait until the songs show up in the Dropbox folder.
4. You can listen to the songs with the Open in function in Dropbox to listen to the songs, or download the songs to your iPhone so that you can enjoy them anytime you need.

3 Ways to Transfer Music from iPhone to iPad

When your iPod Touch displays a message telling you to connect it to iTunes, it may be in recovery mode, or have been disconnected in the middle of an update.
To get rid of the screen, you must reset your device. If in passcode mode, an iPod Touch must be manually unlocked or fully restored to get back to the home screen.Forcing a Reboot
When your iPod Touch is stuck on a screen that is instructing you to connect with iTunes, a normal restart will probably not work, as the hard drive has become frozen.
You can still, however force the iPod to reboot using a process called resetting.
To reset an iPod Touch, hold down the "Sleep/Wake" and "Home" buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears, indicating that the device is rebooting.
When an iPod Touch reboots, it always goes back to the lock screen. Passcode mode will still be enabled.

Unlocking With the Passcode
If you know the passcode for your iPod Touch, slide the "Slide to Unlock" arrow and then enter your code on the next screen.
Upon entering your password, you will be directed to the device's home screen. If you enter the wrong password too many times, it will become disabled temporarily.
The iPod Touch can also be set to erase all content after 10 incorrect passcode attempts if you previously enabled this feature, don't attempt more than 9 entries.


Unlocking Without Passcode If you have forgotten the passcode to your iPod Touch, the only way to unlock the device is by restoring it.
Restoring an iPod Touch returns it to the factory settings, meaning that any settings, applications or music you added to the iPod are removed.
Once the device is restored, you can re-add your downloads and other information using the backup copies in your computer iTunes program.
The passcode setting will be disabled unless you manually enable it again.

Consideration

If you don't have a backup of your music and applications in iTunes on your computer, you can also download another copy from the iTunes Store or App Store on your device after a restore.
Any photos that are deleted during restore, however, will be lost forever if a backup does not exist.
Always back up your information via sync on a regular basis to avoid this problem.

Hi,
I have also had this problem myself. Try following these steps: - Check to see if the files are still on the iPod by connecting it to the computer and then looking at the bar that shows how much of the space in it is dedicated to music,videos etc. If it fills up in orange you can be sure that the files are still inside. - If the files are still inside go to this URL:http://www.getsharepod.com or to http:///www.downloads.com and download the latest version of sharepod. - When you download sharepod, install it, open it and then extract all of your files to your PC. Erase everything in the iPod using sharepod and then USING ITUNES put everything back and it should be the way it was again. - If there was nothing on the ipod then you may have to repair or reinstall your itunes by 1) If you have a setup file for itunes you can open it and it should ask you whether to repair or reinstall itunes. 2) If you have a CD just insert the CD and then run setup and it should ask you whether to repair or reinstall itunes Repairing and reinstalling should solve the problem you have with your itunes.

Good luck! Please provide feedback!

Connect to iTunes means that your iPod Touch is in Recovery mode.
Simply plug your iPod Touch into your computer, laptop, or netbook and iTunes will tell you to restore to the latest firmware. Press "OK" and it'll download the latest firmware. In this case "iOS4".
Once it's done you'll have to sync all your music, games, apps ect what you have lost or choose a Back-Up.
Hope this helps :)

download the latest version of itunes . after the installation of itunes connect your ipod touch using the usb dongle that comes with it. itunes will try to sync on your ipod touch. now click on itunes store then login using your existing account. if you still dont have an account you need to create one first.
