    You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right?  If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:

  • I bought pages ages ago using an iTunes account that no longer works as the email address has been closed down. How can I now update my Pages app, if it asks me to sign in using this now defunct email address?

    I bought Pages ages ago using an iTunes account that no longer works as the email address has been closed down. How can I now update my Pages app, if it asks me to sign in using this now defunct email address?

    All apps are always tied to the account from whaich they were purchased and will always have to be updated using that account.
    Just because the e-mail account is shut down, has nothing to do with the itunes account. Why did you create a new account?  Why not just change the e-mail associated with the old account?

  • In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)?

    Hello, all.
    In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)? For instance, I'm wanting to play an album with a particular track on it or I'm searching for albums that include that track. iTunes incorrectly assumes that all I'm after is that one track and then incorrectly displays the album as if there is only one ttrack on it. This is a bonkers default setting. Can I change this?

    Click the search magnifying glass and uncheck "Search entire library".
    Type in the name of the track.
    Click the album of interest to show tracks.
    Select the track.
    Press the X in the search box to clear the search.
    Double click the track you want to start playing first.

  • I updated my iPod touch 4 to the latest OS and now the admin doesn't come up. How can I access the iPod admin?

    I have unplug and plugged in my iPod to my pc 100 times and admin never comes up. When i go to iTunes I don't see anyway to
    get to the iPod admin.  I copied quite a few of my CD's into iTunes but can't find a way to sync the player with the itunes on my computer.
    I don't like the new update...it changed the look and feel of everything...for the worse.

    Many people haven't yet figured out the new default interface in iTunes 11 but it's not that difficult. To get to the iPod information so you can sync, click the iPod button in the header bar at the upper-right, e.g.:
    Or go to the View menu and select "Show Sidebar" and the interface will then look substantially like it did in earlier versions. If you are running Windows and don't see the menus, press Control-B or go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":

    Your library and media are located in your Music folder in a folder called iTunes.  Delete the entire iTunes folder (and empty the trash).  If you want to transfer it to another computer, make sure you copy it to a temporary drive first.
    Did you use this computer to sync an i-device such as a phone?

  • How can I sync my ipod fifo

    Formerly I was able to sync my iPod fifo (i exceed my iPod capacity).  Since a newr version it's impossible.  Any idea on how can I sync my iPod fifo then ?

    Is the playlist in your iTunes library, or is it already on the shuffle (as a playlist)?
    If you created one or more playlists for your shuffle in your iTunes library (with the songs in the desired playlist order), you should set up automatic syncing.  Here's how to do that, if you have not already...
    NOTE:  If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.
    Select the shuffle in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  Near the top of the window, there is a bar of buttons, starting with Summary.  Click Music next to Summary.  This is the shuffle's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs. (Sorry if you know this already...)
    Check the box for Sync Music.  Below that, choose the option to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  In your case, find and checkmark those playlists you want under Playlists.  When you click Apply, the songs on those playlists and the playlists sync to the shuffle. 
    When using your shuffle, the default playlist that you are using is the All Songs list.  To play songs in order, the shuffle's power switch needs to be set to the play-in-order (middle) position.  However, if you are playing from the All Songs list, the songs play in alphabetical order.
    To play from a particular playlist that is on the shuffle, you need to use VoiceOver to switch to that playlist.  This document explains how to set up and use VoiceOver on a shuffle

    When playing from a particular playlist, with the power switch set to play-in-order, the songs play in playlist order.

    Hi Becki ..
    You need to "authorize" the Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
    Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

  • HT1510 Is there a way to get the IPod Shuffle 3rd generation to go to the beginning of the playlist/music so I can go on the "Play In Order" mode and have it start from the beginning.

    There is no legal way to do this-  You would need to be using the same AppleID (account)
    As far as deleting the songs, in a situation like this, you should restore the iPod which will delete the songs as well as allow you to sync your own music.
    For instructions on how to delete/add songs  it's best to check the manual:
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipod
    As far as restoring, you didn't mention what model you are using but just choose your model from here (they have step by step instructions):

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  USe your backup copy to put everything on the new computer, then sync.

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.
