Let me cut to the chase. When I play a song on my iPod (2nd gen, 4.2.1 iOS) and then sync it to the computer, iTunes shows that it has like 800 plays. Can someone help me fix this? It is irritating me.
iPod touch, iOS 4.2
Try resetting the play count

I've tried that, but it doesn't work. It goes back to zero but continues increasing by large numbers. I played a song three times and the count was 50.
If a PC try:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Next
- 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: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
