HT1351 I have an IPOD that has not been synced to Itunes for several years. I no longer have the same computer or e-mail address. How can I sync my old IPOD material to my new itunes account?

I have an older IPOD that has not been synced to Itunes for seceral yeras. I no longer have the same computer or e-mail address. How can I sync my old IPOD material to my new Itunes account?

Your email address (used as your Apple ID) does not matter, because iPods are not directly linked to a particular Apple ID.
NOTE: You can still use your old Apple ID, even if your that email address is no longer valid. As long as you remember your Apple ID password. Go here and click on Manage your Apple ID.
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
You can change the primary email address used by Apple, although the Apple ID remains the same.
Back to the iPod. iTunes syncing is generally in one direction only, from the computer's iTunes library to the iPod. You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links. (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to your new iTunes library. After confirming everything is there, sync your iPod to that library. If there is any content purchased from the iTunes Store that uses DRM (copy protection), such as audiobooks, videos, and very old song purchases, iTunes may prompt you to authorize your computer with your Apple ID (the one you used to make the purchases).

Can't get rid of Perian software update window in the center of my screen.

When I woke up my computer this morning, there was a Perian software update window right in the center of my screen. I cannot get rid of it and don't want to install it. No matter what I push...it won't budge. My choices are Skip this version, remind me later or install update...as I said I don't want to install it...how do I get rid of it ?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Click on "Skip This Version."
If that doesn't get rid of it, hold the power button down until the MacBook shuts down. Then start up again.

Can I get rid of 36? It installed an update and now firefox does not work at all

firefox 36 is seriously broken
It updated on my computer and now does not work at all. I've tried all the suggestions and no help.....going back to IE

Hi wskossack, I am sorry to hear that you are having problems with Firefox 36. I am also sorry that we have not been able to get that working for you yet.
If what you really want is to uninstall Firefox we can do that. Of course I have to ask if you would be willing to let my help you to get the most up to date version of Firefox working. But, Firefox is all about the ability to customize. If you want we can install the last version of Firefox and you can use that until the next version comes out or while we work to get Firefox 36 working for you. I will try to cover every option in my reply.
First I will cover uninstalling Firefox. If you want to look at the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer|article click here]] this can be done in about 7 steps
I would recommend that you completely uninstall Firefox and install it again. This will most likely fix any problems you have right now. Because you are asking how to do this I am going to assume that you have not tried this.
If you have Vista or Windows 7:
1) close any open Firefox windows.
2) from the start menu click on control panel
3) click on uninstall a program
4) from this list chose Firefox
5) click on uninstall (this is located turds the top)
If the Uninstall Wizard does not run, you can start it manually by running helper.exe, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe
6) in the Firefox uninstall wizard click next and on the next page click uninstall then click finish
7) to remove other files and folders that may not be removed by the uninstall, you must manually delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations by default:
(32-bit Windows) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
(64-bit Windows) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
The uninstaller does not remove any user data such as history or bookmarks. To completely remove this data, you must manually delete the Firefox folder containing your user profile:
Click the Windows Start button.
Type %APPDATA% in the search field and press enter to open the hidden Roaming folder.
Open the Mozilla folder
Delete the Firefox folder.
Now I am going to go over how to get the last version of Firefox installed on your computer. If you want to look at the [[Install an older version of Firefox|article click here]] . If you decide that this is what you want to do please look at the article for some impotent security information.
Firefox 35.0.1 was the last version of Firefox and you can get it by [https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/35.0.1/win32/en-US/Firefox%20Setup%2035.0.1.exe clicking here] . The link is also in the article. If you do this you will have to disable the auto update. To do this go to options, then go to advance. Under advance there will be a sub tab. You want to go to update. Then you can select to never check or to have it tell you when there is an update.
So the only thing left is for me to help you with any problems you are having with Firefox 36. I hope you will give me a chance. In any case, if you need any more information or help with anything that I went over please let me know.

Can't get past the iPod Software License Agreement

So here's my problem. My iPod is connected to my laptop, and it says iPod under the tab labeled 'Devices'. When I click on iPod, it goes to the Software License Agreement. I've agreed to it several times, but no software setup ever follows it. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!

The software setup is complete when the license agreement appears; except for the process of updating or restoring the iPod's firmware, nothing is required that isn't part of iTunes or the OS.

I can't get rid of "bing" from opening in new tabs. How can I get a blank page to open as in the past?

Up until yesterday, I could open a new tab with a blank page. Now, every new tab opens to a bing search page and focus is in the search box. Very annoying when I begin to type a URL and have to click in the URL to continue typing. How do I get back to a blank page opening?

Thanks. You did have to go through another step-"Extensions", to find the Icon for the StartNow Toolbar with Bing involved.
Yep tried it and it got rid of Bing!! Happy Happy

Re: Want to get rid of Toshiba Softwares pre-installed on Satellite L650-165

Hi,
i just bought my Satellite Pro L650-165 and there are a number of softwares that come pre-installed with it.
Such as Toshiba Tempro, Eco Mode, Bulliten Board etc etc.
Considering the fact that i will be using this for my university i will be running numerous ram intensive programs on it.
So i want to free up all the ram i can by uninstalling all these utlities.
I know what you are thinkin... yes just because they are installed doesnt mean they are running. But is it safe to?
I know it should be but still asking. i just want to be left with plain ol windows7 minus all the 'cool softwares'. any precautions?
oh and although i have created the recovery discs using the builtin utility to do so.. i was thinking of ordering one from toshiba too. where to go for that?

>So i want to free up all the ram i can by uninstalling all these utlities.
I know what you are thinkin... yes just because they are installed doesnt mean they are running. But is it safe to?
Even if such tools are installed, this does not mean that they would run in the background and would waste a part of the RAM.
I would not recommend uninstalling such tools but to disable it from automatic startup.
How to do that? Esay
You can do this in msconfig.
Start msconfig and go to start up tab.
There you can just uncheck the tools which you dont need at the beginning.
Save the changes and reboot the unit.
If you would need one of the disabled tools again in startup tab, then you could enable this
Note; disabling the process in msconfig does not mean that you could not start these tools manually
Disabling the tools (processes) in msconfig means ONLY that these tool would not be started automatically when the windows boots up.

I can't get rid of the iCloud icon in my iTunes playlists

Since the last iTunes update the iCloud icon keeps popping up in every playlist.
I tried disabling it, but after the next start-up the icon is back again, and it isn't because it's a different playlist.
This keeps happening in the itunes library also.
It keeps bugging me since I don't use icloud and the icon is a waste of space for me, I have all the playlists setup so that
the space is used well, but the icon keeps messing up my lay-out.

Seriously, no one has had this problem before?

HELP! Have new PC, how can i get iphone's music, apps ect onto new itunes??

Hi there,
Unfortunatly my laptop was stolen a week before christmas. My Iphone was synced to the laptop and I also used the Itunes' Store to purchase my music from the computer aswell as buying some from the phone itself.
I now have a new laptop and have just downloaded Itunes to it. I logged in to the Itunes store using my apple account fine. I then tried to sync my Iphone to the new laptop's Itunes but it said that 'music frm my Iphone would be replaced by my Itunes libary' (which is empty).
If i go to purchased underneeth the Itunes store it is empty. However if i got in to my Apple Account Information it had the full list of my past pursaches from my old laptop but shows no way of importing those songs and applications in to my Itunes Libary.
So really i just need to know how to sync my Iphone to my new laptop and keep the files i have already purchased which are on my Iphone at the moment.
Help would be great. Many thanks, Tom

You mean songs purchased with iTunes on your computer that was stolen which weren't transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process?
People get new PC's all the time.
Sure they do, and many people also maintain a backup for their important data stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only that includes their iTunes library - especially iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store. Apple includes a warning or alert message about maintaining a backup of your iTunes store purchases after making a purchase - maybe not after every purchase, but often enough.
What happened to your other important data stored on your laptop that was stolen? Was that data included with your backup or did you lose everything with the theft?
Just one of the many reasons why this is so important. Hard drives don't last forever and can have a partial or complete failure at any time - even the brand new hard drive with your new computer. I know some people who maintain two backups in case the media for one of their backups fail. Not likely that two would fail at the same time. I use iDisk for one of my backups, and I use an external flash drive for my other, which includes my entire iTunes library. Important regardless the platform but even more so with a Windows PC due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns.
Apple may help you with this, but they aren't obligated to do so.

Can I sync my old iPod Classic to a new iTunes account (to which I don't have access) without losing my music?wj

I have an old iPod that I haven't used in years with thousands of songs from ripped C.Ds I don't own anymore. I was wondering if there was a way I could sync up my old iPod to a new account without losing my old music so I could put new songs on.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you are using the same account again, disable autosync in iTunes, set up your account, set up at least one contact and event on your Mac, to be able to merge data during the first sync.
Connect your device, right click on it in the device list and choose "backup". This will back up your device without syncing. Transfer your purchases the same way, to copy all bought media and apps to your new library.
The first sync will erase your device, but you can use the manual created backup to restore your settings and data again.

I by accident downloaded something call geniel. How can I get rid of it?

I by accident downloaded something call geniel. How can I get rid of it?

You installed the "Genieo" malware. The product is a fraud, and the developer knowingly distributes an uninstaller that doesn't work. I suggest the procedure below to disable Genieo. This procedure may leave a few small files behind, but it will permanently deactivate the malware (as long as you never reinstall it.)
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Frameworks/GenieoExtra.framework
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.
If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder should open with an item named "GenieoExtra.framework" selected. Move that item to the Trash. You'll be prompted for your administrator password.
Move each of these items to the Trash in the same way:
/Applications/Genieo.app
/Applications/Reset Search.app
/Applications/Uninstall Genieo.app
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.engine.plist
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client.plist
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.genieoinnovation.macextension.client
/usr/lib/libgenkit.dylib
/usr/lib/libgenkitsa.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckit.dylib
/usr/lib/libimckitsa.dylib
~/Library/Application Support/com.genieoinnovation.Installer
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.download.plist
~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.genieo.completer.update.plist
If there are other items with a name that includes "Genieo" or "genieo" alongside any of those listed above, move them as well. Some of these items will be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
Restart and empty the Trash. Don't try to empty the Trash until you have restarted.
Step 2
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including ones called "Genieo" or "Omnibar," and any that have the word "Spigot" or "InstallMac" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Your web browser(s) should now be working, and you should be able to reset the home page and search engine. If not, stop here and post your results.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install this trojan. Chances are you got it from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad has a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If youever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
Finally, be forewarned that when Genieo is mentioned on this site, the attacker sometimes shows up under the name "Genieo support." He will tell you to run a fake "uninstaller." As he intends, the uninstaller does not completely remove the malware, and is in fact malware itself.

Music syncing - rogue music showing up that I can't get rid of!

I have music on my iPad that is not in the folder I sync to on my main computer's iTunes music folder, and I can't get rid of it. Any suggestions? ITunes v is 11.1.0.126, iPad v is 7.0.2. Cheers

Is it music that you have downloaded in the past from iTunes but did not sync to your iPad and does the music have a cloud icon next to the song names? If it does, then those songs are not on your iPad, but are showing in the Music App for easy downloading purposes.
If you want to hide them, go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Show All>Music>Off.
