You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPod forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • Ipod icon wont appear on lower right hand side to transfer songs to shuffle

    why is it that the ipod icon wont appear on the lower right hand side of itunes to transfer songs to shuffle?
    the icon for the ipod shuffle is there but i dont have the icon that transfers the songs to the shuffle 512mb. how do i get my songs on there?

    How did you wind up without a User's Guide? Or avoid finding out that you can download a complete copy of it from the Support spaces at Apple?
    The little icon you're describing is the one for iPod Preferences and has nothing at all to do with transferring songs. It won't show up, however, unless and until the iPS is mounted and visible by iTunes. Not seeing it appear there means your Shuffle isn't mounted.
    As for the rest, sorry .... don't have a clue what you might mean. Using vague terms like '...this thing ...' and ' .... on there ...' doesn't really do much but lead to more questions which, in any event, I'm not asking.
    Get a copy of the User's Guide, read it, then post back (if you still need to) with specific questions.

  • I want to share my internet connection with my iPhone via the usb cable. I have a Macbook pro. What do you think? Is this possible? And if yes, then how?  Thanks!

    If not why option available
    Thanks!

    What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
    Best of luck.

  • HT1386 I have iTunes (up to date) and an iPhone 4s. When I connect it using the USB cable it does not appear in the top right corner. Other devices do and also the cable is fine as it charges and the PC sees it as a device. I've looked online and have no

    I'm new to this and I think I typed a long heading!
    Anyway the issue is I have iTunes and just updated it to the latest. I also have various Apple devices however my iPhone won't sync with iTunes. When I connect it using the USB cable it does not appear in the top right corner as does other devices. The cable is fine as it charges and also my PC sees the device. However it does not appear in iTunes so I can't sync music to it.
    I've searched the web but all asume iTunes can see the device.
    Help!?

    If wjosten's tip doesn't work try plugging it into a USB charger (not through your computer), wait about 30 seconds and it should come on. If it doesn't remove the cord from the phone and keep trying this. I've had this same issue and found a combination of the reset & charging cable tends to work. Sometimes it takes about 5 minutes for the phone to respond.
    Best of luck.

  • I am connected to time capsule via wi-fi but air port says not connected and disk utility does not see it

    I am connected to time capsule via wi-fi but air port says not connected and disk utility does not see it. I had it connected via ethernet and it still did not see it. Then i disconncectd it from ethernet and did the Wi-fi connection and am able to post this message but air port still does not see it.

    Disk Utility will not "see" the Time Capsule, so no need to waste any more time on that issue.
    but air port still does not see it.
    Not sure what you mean by "air port" here.

  • TS4222 Q:I have my iPad connected to my electrical outlet, but I can't get it to charge. It just says not charging in top right corner. What do I do?

    Q:I have my iPad connected to my electrical outlet, but I can't get it to charge. It just says not charging in top right corner. What do I do?

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • IPod Touch has an N with circle around it in top right corner?

    iPod Touch has an N with circle around it in top right corner.... what is this?!

    look closer. it's probably the portrait orientation lock, simply a symbol (actually a lock inside a circular arrow, not an "n") that's telling you that you locked the screen rotation to prevent landscape viewing. if you press the home button twice and slide the backgrounded apps bar to the right, you will be able to see the music controls and a grey box to the left. that box can be tapped to lock or unlock the screen orientation.

  • I have an iPod Touch 4G and i noticed soon after i bought it that the screen was slightly separated from the back metal plate on the top right corner...

    I have an iPod Touch 4G and i noticed soon after i bought it that the screen was slightly separated from the back metal plate on the top right corner, and I didn't have any problems up until a few days ago. The touch screen doesn't work properly in most places, and that is getting very annoying! So, my question is, can I get a replacement and if so which model would i get, the 4g or 5g?( I'm a little confused about which one I would get IF I were to get a replacement.) I would like an answer asap please!

    If under warranty and not abused Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one of the same mode.. Sorry, no upgrade.

  • My iPod Nano 7th has a strange blue tint in the top right corner, Help Please?

    I just recently was givin my step dad's ipod nano. When it was givin to me it was in great shape. Not a scratch or any cosmetics ware and only a couple of songs. Over the past week, i have used it casualy. About Tuesday, the top left corner was white. It went away the next day. Then Thursday, the top right corner turned blue and has gon from better to worse randomly.
    Please Help

    Well, shut my mouth!  There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
    Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question?  That's what I did.  Now I can go out and listen.  It's only 91 degrees.  Heaven. Thanks, Apple. 

  • I have a set of 3 USB disk connected to my TC via a USB hud. I usually swithc the TC at night. When I restart the next day it stucks in amber state. when I disconnect the USB hub where my discs connects and restart, it start properly. Any hints?

    I have a set of 3 USB disks connected to my Time capsule (TC) via a USB hub. I usually switch the TC at night. When I restart the next day it stucks in amber state. When I disconnect the USB hub where my discs connects and restart, the TC will start properly. Any hints?

    LOL.. don't switch off the TC.. this is fairly typical behaviour..
    Or try a different usb hub.. but you could well and truly run out of hubs before you fix the problem.
    Are you running latest firmware for your TC?
    What error message is coming up in the airport utility.. amber led is a fault indicator.. look up what the actual fault is and see if it is for instance overloading the usb. You are using a powered hub??
    Get one bigger USB hard disk instead of 3 smaller ones.

  • An connect to other Macs via Share Screen, but not RemoteDesktopAdmin

    Please help. I can connect to other Macs on the network via Share Screen, but cannot get a connection using Remote Desktop Admin.  Just keeps being stuck on verify.  Running Lion 10.7.3 with latest Remote Desktop Admin.  All Macs are on the same local ethernet network.  All was fine before update to 10.7.3.

    Thank you Dave for responding.  I did check the above as you mentioned.  In the end, I decided to roll back my mac via  timemachine to it's pre `10.7.3 upadre state.  Not sure why it took me so long to think of that ... perhaps it was just tooo obvious   Anyway, all is now working, and for whatever reason, re-installing the 10.7.3 combo update didn't break Remote Desktop Admin the second time now.  Not a clue way it worked , but glad it did.
