Yes, what you can do is actually when you plug the ipod in is eject it or click manually manage music and cancel the download of songs, and if you get new songs on hers, you can delete the songs from it.

  • How do I charge my Ipod on the PC without syncing?

    I had to make a system recovery and lost all my songs. How can I charge the Ipod without making it sync with Itunes?
    I also need help on getting the songs on my Ipod back onto Itunes.
    Thanks in advance

    "Also, how do I get the songs on my Ipod back onto Itunes?"
    Yamipod may not work for you if you have iTunes version 7 or later although there is an "untested" version.
    Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer.
    There's also another method. I've successfully tested this across several different Windows PCs.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If none of these methods work, try CopyPod which also supports the transfer of videos from iPod to computer.

  • The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on...  What is wrong?  Can photos and data be retrieved?

    The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on...  What is wrong?  Can photos and data be retrieved?

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. I suspect a hardware problem  due to the hotness. If iTunes can't see the iPod then uor only hope if to contact a data recovery company for getting data off the iPod. If you have an iPod backup you can restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from the backup to get the data that was in the backup

  • I charged my iPod on my computer, and now iTunes gives me a message that I need to "restore" my iPod, but that if I "restore" it, I will lose all my settings.  I don't even use itunes on my iPod.  What can I do?

    I only use my ipod touch for downloading audio books with Overdrive and do not use itunes on it.  Today I charged my ipod on my mac, and my mac screen now tells me that  itunes has detected that my ipod is in "recovery mode" and   I need to "restore" my ipod, but the message warns that if I "restore" my ipod, I will lose all my settings and be back to factory settings.  All that shows up on my ipod screen  is the itunes logo and a charging cord.  I would be so grateful for some help.

    When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
    You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT201412 even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    even after all night of charging my ipod touch is running out of battery whithin 5 minutes of it being on, why is this?

    Try the following to rule out a software problem.:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still that short of life ake an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS2771 My iPod touch will only charge through computer, new wall charger will not charge it, but charges other iPods

    My sons iPod touch will only charge with computer. This has happened since update. Wall charger charges other iPods/iPhone. Restored to original defaults. And still does not work.

    I believe it started with the update prior to 5.1.1.  I just udated it to the 5.1.1, thinking it would resolve the problem.

  • My 12v chargers no longer charge my iPod why?

    I have several 12v USB chargers that I have used in the past to charge my iPod v 5.0.1 model C008LL either in the car or on my boat.
    Now I either get a "Charging with this accessory is not supported" Griffin Power Pod or the adapter charges (Griffin Power Jolt) but turns off
    the play back making using it in the car impossible.  Whats up with that?

    Did you do as suggested by Skydiver?  If you did and you still can not charge your iPad, you either have a defective charger, or you have a hardware issue with your iPad.  If you can try a different cable, or charger (do you know anyone who has an iPad?) to make sure it's not the cable.  Other than that, it might be time to make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your Apple Store.

  • Ipod 'charging' issues & ipod not recognised by itunes/laptop

    Hi
    My ipod was working fine until last week when it appeared to have no battery. Now whenever it is being charged it is always in a 'charging' status despite the fact that it can have been charging for hours and should be fully charged. Also when I unplug it, the screen constantly displays the charging or charged symbols despite not being connected to any power - it does not seem to switch off completely anymore. Sometimes I will charge my ipod for hours and my ipod screen says it is charging but then as soon as I unplug it from the power my ipod suddenly has not battery. Also, my ipod is now not being recognised by my computer or itunes. I have installed itunes 10 so I am not sure if this is an ipod classic compatibility issue.
    I hope that my post makes sense!! Has anybody else had any of the above problems??
    allie

    First thing to try is a reset of your iPod.
    Turn the Hold switch on then off again and then press-and-hold the Menu and Select (centre) buttons until the Apple logo appears. This can take about ten seconds for the logo to appear. The iPod will then reset (which can take a couple of minutes or so).
    Has a reset corrected the problem? If not, perhaps the battery has reached the end of its useful life. How old is the iPod?
    After a few years (there is no exact number) the battery will wear out and not accept charging any more. Whn it gets to this point, the option is to replace the battery using either Apple ioor a third party, or consider buying a new iPod.

  • After updating iOS on my iPod touch 4th gen my Philips speaker dock DC290B/37 no longer charges the iPod.  It will play music but not charge, is there anyway to find out if Apple is working on an update/fix?

    Try:

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

    Otherwise you are out of luck. Apple is not making any more update for the 4G.
    Also check with Phillips. Maybe they have an firmware update available

  • My daughter has tried to charge her ipod nano 6 on an imported italian computer and it has frozen the iPod...unable to do anything on it at all. screen currently says 'OK to disconnect.' No buttons work..HELP :+) ????

    My daughter has inadvertantly tried to charge her iPod nano 6 into an imported laptop. It has completely frozen all action.
    I have tried to hold - button or main button for suggested 8 seconds to RESET the iPod to no avail. SUGGESTIONS ?? :+)

    Myelo,
    Have you tried restting your iPod?
    You can do so by toggeling the hold switch back and forth a few times, and then holding the menu and the center button in for 5-10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.
    Kind regards,
    Ms Daisy

  • Can i charge 30gig ipod with blackberry charger?

    it says on the charger dc output 5.0v > 0.5A.
    it says on iPod 5-30v > 1A max
    surely this should be fine but i dont want to plug it in without being sure. has anyone charged an ipod this way before??

    Blackberry charger has a dock connector? 30GB iPOd charges through the dock connector so I don't think the Blackberry charger will work.
