i have an ipod 4 can i connect to pc and, using itunes match, store all music off ipod and then transfer to a new ipod 5?

hI, bella
I also met this issue a few days ago and I finally find out how to transfer music from iPod to computer:
1. Plug your iPod in and wait for the computer to recognize it.
2. Open up 'My Computer' and under 'Devices With Removable Storage', double click and open apple iPod.
3. Click on 'Tools' at the top of the window and drag down to 'Folder Options'.
4. Under the 'View' tab, find the subfolder called 'Hidden files and folders'.
5. Select the option 'Show hidden files and folders'.
6. Click 'OK'.

    When you connect the iPod to your computer and go to the Music tab to select which music you want to sync, iTunes will pop up a dialogue box that if you sync your music it will replace the music that is already on the iPod.
    Since that sounds like what you want to do, just click ok and then sync.

  • After purchasing songs at the itunes store, ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. Also a lock symbol is now on the ipod touch. How do I fix this

    After purchasing songs at the itunes store,  my ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. It won't send the purchases to the device and it won't synch any other music to the device. Also a lock symbol is now displayed at the top of the ipod touch. How do I fix this.
    This was the first purchase I made.

    Are you following these instructions?

    Where is the lock icon on the screen?

  • Why do i have duplicate songs in most of my albums? using iTunes match, use computer to charge phone, it must have synced now have double songs

    I think when i was charging my iphone and syncing iphoto, itunes synced.  i never check the box that says "synce itunes when iphone connected' but this box somehow was checked. now i have double music, taking up a lot of space.  Having to manually remove all the duplicate songs.  this is the third time this has happened. I do not have the time to sit and manually do this.  Can anyone tell me why this is happening and is there an easier fix?  could turn off itunes match and turn it back on again, but then have to redownload my music individually, which is also time consuming.

    I had the exact same issue!! Seriously p*ssed me off when I checked out my ITunes purchased items (via my computer) and noticed that most of the additional tracks listed on my IPhone playlist was listed there too. However, I never authorized any purchases!!  (I have actually written Apple Support asking for a full refund of all tracks listed on my purchased list)
    Be careful when you swipe your finger to the left/right on those "additional" tracks on your IPhone playlist... I'm pretty sure that the cloud symbol is an option to download or automatically buy those tracks.
    Solution for the problem:
    1 - go to your IPhone settings
    2 - choose "iTunes & App Store"
    3 - go to "Show All" & "Music"
    4 - turn off "Music" by moving the bar to the left (it should be a white color once you turn it off)
    Should solve your problem :~)

  • How can i store music on my iPhone and use iTunes match?

    I signed up for Itunes match but found the streaming music uses a lot of data and is too expensive.  I then put the music back on my iphone but found that enabling itunes match will delete the music on my phone.  Is there anyway to keep the music on my iphone and also connect to itunes match?

    Thank you so much for the response. This half sorts out my issue, as turning off Musicmatch means I can load music onto my iPad, but the minute I turn it back on to access my library whilst travelling I will lose what I have loaded as it comes up saying " all music will be erased".
    I really apprecaite your time, so will just have to live with what I load. Seems weird that Apple wouldn't consider people want to listen to music on planes or in Non - wifi zones??
    Thanks again!

  • How can I sync to keep some music tracks on my iPhone AND use iTunes Match to stream the rest?

    Before I got iTunes Match, I had selected a whole bunch of music from my iTunes to sync onto my iPhone using my USB cable.
    Now I've signed up for iTunes Match and none of that music is on my iPhone anymore except by streaming.
    How do I get those tunes and podcasts back on my iPhone so I can listen to them when streaming is not available (like downstairs in my gym where there's no signal) WHILE ALSO being able to access the other non-sync'd tunes if I want whenever I've got a good signal.
    I spent some time choosing which tunes to keep on my iPhone and which not to sync. So I'm sad they've all gone from my iPhone.
    Your help appreciated!

    You don't really have to download each one. 
    If you put the songs that you want to in a playlist you can have your iOS device download all the songs automatically rather than you having to do them one by one.  And as you add more songs to this playlist you can periodically have your iOS device download the new ones.  It actually works very well.  The only downside, albeit a small one, is that it won't automatically download the new additions to your playlists.
    This is exctly what I do for my workout playlist.  I populated it, downloaded all the songs in one shot by clicking the DOWNLOAD ALL button on that playlist on my iPhone, and then as I add songs to that playlist in iTunes I'll go back to the iOS device and download those individual songs.

  • Can't connect to apple tv using itunes id

    I have added a second apple TV to my network and can not get it to connect.  My older second generation apple tv works as does my desktop and mac pro but the newer second unit does not accept my apple login.  I have used 5 computers authorized to use my apple/itunes login.  Why cant i connect?

    we also have the same problem.  2 apple tv's but both are 1st generation.  One will connect and one wont as it wont accept the apple login password.  Support is looking into it.  Seems we might have more then one itunes account and this could be causing our trouble.  Will keep you posted

  • HT4914 Are the older "Protected AAC files" that I have replaced with the unprotected version when I re-download them using Itunes Match?

    Are the older "Protected AAC files" that I have replaced with the unprotected version when I re-download them using Itunes Match?

    Additionally, when trouble shooting, and you disable iTunes Match on an iOS device you cannot simply re-enable it immediately. You must launch the Music app and let the content clear out before re-enabling the service.

  • My home wifi connection suddenly got cutoff, then my iPod can't connect to it anymore

    My home wifi connection suddenly got cutoff, then my iPod can't connect to it anymore whereas all other devices (Macbook, Blackberry, etc) has no problem connecting. After putting the password, the password is accepted but it keeps searching forever and refuse to connect!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Try the following that you have not yet done 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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    Hi troy157,
    I'm sorry you are having issues with the iMovie app you purchased for your iPhone5.
    The first thing I would suggest is to log out of your iTunes Account on your iPhone, turn the iPhone off and then on again, and see if app finishes downloading/updating.
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap on your Apple ID account > Tap Sign Out
    If the issues persists, the article below will give you a few more troubleshooting steps:

    Try the following steps to resolve your issue, testing the app after each step.
    1. Update your device software
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Check for app updates
    Ensure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    When prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the application updates.
    Note: Some applications may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.3. Install another app from the App Store
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.6. Reinstall the affected application
    Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
    Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the application and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
