Viewing Nano contents through My Computer (Win 7)

The choices of wallpapers on the 6th generation Nano is very limited (and to me personally, very boring). Is there a way to add new wallpapers to the list?
I tried adding my wallpapers from my computer to the photos folder on the Nano, and they did show up. However, there was no option with the photo viewer to set the current photo as your background, nor did my wallpapers show up in the wallpaper choices in the settings for the Nano itself.
(Through manually searching around this place I found my answer - no, you can't add new wallpapers. What a load of help the search function did before - I tried that first before posting here, but it came up with nothing. My question below still stands though...)
When I go to view the contents of my Nano through My Computer (yes, I use Windows - don't hate me!), all it comes up with is a file named ".metadata_never_index." Is there a way to view the contents through My Computer instead of through iTunes?
If you need any further info to help me answer this question, just ask.

The Music folder is hidden inside of a hidden folder called iPod_Control.  You need to enable hidden files and folders on your Windows XP machine first.  See this link for instructions on how to do this.

  • View BLOB content through Forms 6i URGENT... URGENT...

    I have a table which stores word documents as BLOB. My database is on UNIX machine and I access the database through a Citrix machine through Oracle Forms. My client wishes to open the word document in Forms which is stored in BLOB in the database. My database version is 9.2 which supports me to import and export files from file system to BLOB and vice versa using DBMS_BLOB and UTL_FILE packages. But, my only concern is regarding opening the word document through Forms 6i. Is that possible through OLE or any other means? I've tried all the sources. I know I can do it using Webutil, but it will not work for Forms 6i. Please help me in this regard. I have an urgent release tonight. Please. Please. Please. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    I know that OLE can solve the problem. But issues is my word document is stored as BLOB in the database. My database is in UNIX. So, I can't export my files into UNIX and open them. I can't view them either from Forms. Please let me know if you have any alternative. Please can you guide me with step by step procedure as to how this can be done if we can do it using OLE.

  • Hi, I am not able to restore my ipad (I have tried different techniques but it stays frozen at the Apple logo level). If I try through my computer, it forces me to reset factory settings erasing my Media content which I haven't backed up. Ideas please?

  • Premiere Pro is not reading all of the video content in my AVCHD clip. I know this because my computer plays all of the content through Preview, so the information is on the card. How do I get Premiere to read all of the content?

    Premiere Pro is not reading all of the video content in my AVCHD clip. I know this because my computer plays all of the content through Preview, so the information is on the card. How do I get Premiere to read all of the content?

    First, AVCHD isn't just "one" clip, it splits the video & audio into several files each per clip, typically with randomly generated names. The only way they "play" correctly is if the software doing so is able to read from the data file ...in a different folder ... the information that X clip is actually A, B, D, #@, and 456 video clips and TR, #r54, and ert$%4 audio clips. The next "clip" is ... and on and on. So both rapid access to the video files AND that database file are necessary to play the files back, or do anything else with them.
    VLC is a fairly decent but simple playback tool. It's nowhere near as complicated nor demanding in its "relationship" with those clips as an NLE like PrPro, which will be trying to do more reading & writing.
    Further, many of the preferences in PrPro are natively set so that it writes project, cache, preview, & database files next to the footage. So ... if it doesn't have both a fast enough connection with the data AND space for putting all of it's own stuff there, it tells you it can't work the file.
    Therefore ... the need to have the complete data from the card in the exact same folder structure it was in ON the card copied to a "local" hard drive.

  • I'm trying to sync a playlist onto my phone through the computer and it says my device is already synced with another computer with my iTunes account. It only lets me cancel or it gives me the option to erase my contents and sync. Help.

    I'm trying to sync a playlist onto my phone through the computer and it says my device is already synced with another computer with my iTunes account. It only lets me cancel or it gives me the option to erase my contents and sync. Wondering how to get my device from the other computer especially since I don't even know what computer it's connected to.

    At some stage is is likely to have been connected to another computer's iTunes.  It is now linked to that computer's library and iPhones can only be associated to one library at a time.  Linking to a different one requires wiping the phone.
    If you used the phone with another computer you owned you can transfer the iTunes library from that computer to this one and the phone will still be syncing with the same library it was before.
    If all there is on the phone are items which can be backed up to iTunes and purchases which can be transferred you could do that, then wipe the phone and sync them back.

  • IPod nano content wiped out when I charged my battery on computer. Any way of retrieving tunes?

    IPOd Nano content, including all my tunes, was wiped out after I charged the battery on my computer.  Any way of retrieving the content?

    Isn't the content that was stored on the Nano still in your iTunes library?  If so, simply resync it back over to your device as usual.
    If it's no longer in iTunes, you'll need to either redownload the content from the iTunes or rerip this music into iTunes.

  • Which cables do I need to view contents on my computer on my tv

    Which cables do I need to view contents from my computer on my tv?

    Look at your Panasonic owners manual for what type of inputs it accepts.  The odds are there will be a HDMI plug.  You will need that type of cable plus an adapter to connect to your MBP.  In addition check how the TV has to be set for computer or HDMI input.

  • Is there a way to view the content of my iCloud backup on a computer

    The back up to iCloud was from an iPhone 4 on IOS 6 (this was the IOS that the phone was on when it did a back up, before it was updated to IOS 7.1.2) , and I can see within iCloud drive that the back up is there, but is there a way to view the content of that back up like the pictures for the most part.

    No. The only way to see it is to restore the backup to an iOS device.

  • Why isn't ATV able to play my movie rental through iTunes on my Mac?-I can see it on ATV through the computer icon but it won't play.

    So I've had my Gen 2 ATV for a little less than a year..it's been great...up to last week!  Now nothing downloads and all I get is ''able to view in 90 hours...all week it's not gone under 70 hours.   So I went to Itunes on my Mac and downloaded it again thinking it should show up as a rental through the computer on ATV..it does it's right there...but can I play it?  Heck no!  First it gets the icon showing its buffering..or whatever it's doing and it just stays there doing nothing..then I tried it again an hour later and I get an error message that I need to authorize my computer....I go back to check in Itunes and of course the computer is authorized.
    I've just spent $12 on the same movie trying to get it to work and I'm just so over reading in all the forums but finding nothing that will fix this issue.  Does Apple even care?  Sooo many people with problems and no help to fix the issues.  THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY INTERNET CONNECTION!
    How about Apple just fixing whatever it is that's wrong?  I can only think it has something to do with the last update I did since nothing has worked properly with movies since then.

    Hello there, Abigail.
    It sounds like you are unable to watch an HD download becuase of the message saying that your display must support HDCP. The following Knowledge Base article offers up nformation on why this message can pop up:

  • How could it be possible to completely restrict other users to view any sites through firefox browser with the help of password ?

    I want complete control of firefox browser for my computer.
    For example:
    There is a similar feature in Internet Explorer which is called 'Content Adviser'.
    To restrict others for viewing sites through Internet Explorer here is what has to be done:
    1. Click to open Internet Explorer.
    2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
    3. Click the Content tab, and then, under Content Advisor, do one of the following:
    *Click Enable. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    *If you've previously enabled Content Advisor, click Settings, and then type the supervisor password. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    4. To allow others to view restricted content, click the General tab, and then select the Supervisor can type a password to allow users to view restricted content check box.
    5. To allow others to view unrated content, select the Users can see websites that have no rating check box, and click OK.
    6. If a supervisor password has not previously been set up for Content Advisor, you will be prompted to create one.

    Looks like verdana is selected to 'off' in font book. Not sure if this could be the reason as to why i'm experiencing problems.

  • Cannot view SWF content with IE & Flash 9.0.47

    We have recently upgraded to the latest version of Flash
    9.0.47. When viewing pages that are directly linked to a .SWF file,
    the content is never displayed. The IE status bar shows
    'Downloading' and then 'Done' but only white space is displayed.
    The file will not play when downloaded and opened through IE
    manually either.
    These files and sites still work with Flash 8, and with Flash
    9 on Firefox.
    I am able to view content that is embedded and the Adobe
    version test (
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/)
    shows that it is installed.
    Uninstall and reinstalling does not fix the issues nor does
    reverting back to an older version of Flash on machines where this
    once worked.
    I have been through the registry and as far as I can tell
    everything looks fine. File associations and MIME settings were in
    order.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is a problem
    for quite a few computers.
    Thanks in advance,

    Like I said in the previous post, if we try to open a naked
    swf file in IE it does not play. However, when I enlose it in the
    proper tags the content is displayed. Is this the way it's going to
    be from now on?
    Here is an example I pulled from google that got it to work.

    Here are a couple of other things I have tried.
    Registry Permissions are correct, I even gave users full
    control to everything (on a test box)
    Ran Flash Uninstaller, rebooted, installed package from
    adobe's site
    Ran Flash Uninstaller, Rebooted, installed package from
    filehippo
    unregistered & reregistered flash9d.ocx (regsvr32)
    Tried both MSI & EXE installers from Adobe's Corporate
    download site
    Changed IE security settings to lowest possible, everything
    was allowed Allowed active content from My Computer (IE advanced
    settings)
    Tested with different users, some admins some not
    Tested with different versions of Windows XP (RTM, SP1, SP2)
    None of those steps made any difference, and I have run out
    of ideas.

  • My iPod is a nano from 2006 the computer that had my original iTunes ones long gone, is there away to load my iPod to a new iTunes. Each time I try it wants to erase my iPod? Help please

    I havean iPod nano "2006" model,the computer that had my original iTunes is long gone is there away to load my songs a from my iPod on to a new itune account? Each time itryitwants to rewrite my nano? Help!

    The "bar" at the bottom does not say anything about all of your songs being on the iPod.  It just shows you how much of its storage capacity is being used, based on what is on the iPod.
    If you see "On This iPod," that means the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible.  This is easier to describe with the sidebar visible, so from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. 
    Select the iPod in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  There is a bar of buttons near the top, starting with Summary.  Click on Music next to Summary.  This is the iPod's Music screen, where you tell iTunes how to sync songs to the iPod.
    Check the box for Sync Music.  You can choose to sync Entire music library, if (?) your iTunes music library fits on the iPod.  With this setting, your entire iTunes music library syncs to the iPod, and new songs get synced automatically.  A 7th gen iPod nano is 16GB, so your iTunes music library would have to be less than 16GB (not counting non-music content on the iPod).  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.  Then, select (checkmark) the playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres you want on the iPod from the lists below.  If you want newly added songs to sync to the iPod, they must be part of your selection.  For example, you can add them to a playlist that you have selected for syncing to the iPod.
    When you click Apply, the songs from your selection sync to the iPod.  Going forward, changes to your iTunes library (based on your settings on the iPod's Music screen) sync automatically to the iPod, the next time it is connected (or when you click Sync).
