How to get songs out of a used ipod touch then reassign
My son gave his old Ipod touch to his little sister. i think its a 1st gen. He has about 1200 songs and wants to be able to transfer all his songs onto his iphone. Hasn't used it in so long, he doesn't remember his login and password into his old itunes account. I installed itunes onto her computer, plugged in the ipod and the name of the ipod shows but does not show any songs in the library but i know they are in there becuase we can hear them on the ipod. So first, I need to know how to make a backup (on CDs)of all of these songs so that we can transfer them onto his iphone....then to erase them all off of the ipod so that she can start fresh with a new account, etc. To all of you who are much smarter than I....your help is greatly appreciated.
The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.
You will need to move the music from his computer to hers, then sync. You can use the backup copy that should always be maintained to move the music over.
Since the ipod touch will sync with one computer at a time, when you sync to another computer, it will first erase the content from the ipod, then replace with content from the new computer.

How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?
How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?
Hi,
Here is help for the operating system:
If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
Hope this helped. -

How to get rid of white icons on ipod touch 4th generation
How do you get rid of white icons on the ipod touch 4th generation. I tried resetting it already.
Thanks,First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -
How to transfer songs from iPhone 4S to iPod Touch 4G
Hello users of iPhones and iPods etc all over the world...
My mum recently brought an iPod 4G and wants to transfer her songs from her iPhone 4S to this new iPod. I have spent all afternoon trying to work out how to via iTunes and Apple Support, however there is no use - I have tried backing the iPhone up to my laptop and booting it to the restored iPod Touch, however with 3 attempts all failed. Both devices have the latest iOS, so there is no issue there. One thing is that I'm using Windows 8 Asus X501A, however this should not make any difference from if it was a Windows 7 for that fact.
I'm usually quite fluent with my iDevices and technology, but have just gone clueless.
Many thanks

I purchased an Ipod Nano from someone yesterday. How do I register it in my name and unregister the previous owner. I have a 4th gen Ipod touch and was told I could add songs from my library to the nano but we can't seem to do anything with it. HELP please!!
Connect it to your computer and restore it as a new device. Then chose what music you want to sync with it and do so just like your Touch does.

HT4623 how to get ios 7 update for my ipod touch
I have an Ipod touch. My device has not updated to IOS 7. I have WIFI. How can I download it to my Ipod touch, If it has not shown up on the device? There is nothing showing on General settings. How can i get the update if it is not showing on my device? My Ipod touch is iOS 6.1.5 now. That was the only update I got on my Ipod Touch.
Thank you,
mida614Only if you have an iPod 5. iOS 7 requires 512MB of RAM, and sadly only the iPod 5 has 512MB of RAM. If you have a iPod 4 or earlier iOS 7 is not an option. If you check your iPod and it states your iPod iOS is current then you are at your max. Hope this helps, Good luck.

How to play songs in sequential order on iPod touch 4th Gen. ?
How do I play songs in sequential order on a specific album? Some albums should be listened to that way, for example LIVE CONCERTS or concept albums. I have an Ipod Touch 4th Generation. I have turned OFF shuffle play, but that did not help.
Arrange them in a Playlist in the proper order and then just play that playlist.

HT1386 How to get Wi-Fi syncing on my Ipod Touch 4G
My Ipod can no longer be found on my computer that has Itunes installed on it. I talked to a professional and he said it's a major problem with my computer software that needs repairs, which I have no money for. I have another computer that can sync my Ipod but it doesn't have my library large music library on it. So long story short(ish), I need to figure out how to transfer all my Itunes files (mostly music ripped to Itunes from CD's I no longer have, not purchased in Itunes store) over to my other computer that can sync my Ipod so I can get new songs again. Make sense?
