Apple wiped my ibook, my stuff is stuck on my ipod. Help!

Hello,
My ibook had the logic board problems and Apple has had it for three weeks now. I went out and bought a Mac Mini to use while the ibook is away.
I called and they told me they had wiped the ibook's hard drive. Now all my music, photos, and contacts are stuck on my Ipod. Is there any way I can move all of that stuff safely onto my new new Mac Mini and then onto my ibook when it comes back (some day)?
Thanks,
Christine

These links will give you
i several
methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring playlists, ratings, counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you. There are various third-party software programs that will offer a more robust process, or an easier GUI. Do a Google search if the links below leave you wanting…

After recovering your song files, consider developing a backup strategy for just this type of situation. Music files on just the iPod and the computer is
i not
considered having any backup. Backup both the music files
i and
the Library database file (iTunes Library.itl). Below are some very good threads to read on the subject:

  • I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade but I have a new Apple ID, how can I make certain I don't lose any data in my iBooks?

    I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade iBook but it is "stuck" on my old ID, yet I already created a new ID but it won't let me update the App.  I have everything backed up on my MacBook so if I delete iBooks on my iPad and retrieve the App under my new ID and then sync with my MacBook, will I still have all of the books, etc.?

    Your purchases are tied to your Apple ID. If you bought all of the books with the old ID then AFAIK you will have to continue to use that ID in order to continue to sync those books to the iPad.
    You have to update the app with the old ID so I don't see how you could keep the books with the new ID. Maybe I am wrong about this, but someone else will chime in I'm sure and correct me if I am wrong.

  • I downloaded iBooks but it is stuck in Loading and I can't seem to Uninstall. Help!

    I downloaded iBooks but it is stuck in Loading and I can't seem to Uninstall. Help!

    Try restarting your iPad : press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears, then drag the slider; then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. If the app download doesn't re-start, then you couldtry downloading the app to your computer and then syncing/copying it across to your iPad.

  • HT4059 i purchased an ibooks but t is stuck in paused.  where is purchases so  I can press download to get my book

    I bought ibook but it is stuck in paused.  where is the "purchases " key so I can get downloaded.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic book (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iBook store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iBook store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen after you tap the store button in the top corner of the iBook app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Is it possible to download iOS  5 from one iMac and not get them totally wiped of apps and stuff. We have an iPad each and a communal email address and an iCloud address each. One iPad now is totally screwed up.

    Is it possible to download iOS  5 from one iMac on two ipads and not get them totally wiped of apps and stuff. We have an iPad each and a communal email address and an iCloud address each. One iPad now is totally screwed up.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I am somewhat new to iOS and OS having grown up with DOS and Windows. I am not familiar with IMAP and iCloud and I am not even sure which types of servers my various emails use.
    The problem I would anticipate with iCloud is that (I assume) it would limit my access to data (including mail) on the iCloud to when I happen to be logged onto the internet. I also assume(?) that large files (photos etc.) would require some time to download whenever I wish to access them from whichever device I happen to be using (I hope I am wrong about this).
    I have kept my devices to 500gb - 1TB for OS and 32gb - 128gb for iOS but since I have pretty slow WiFi (shared with DirecTV Whole Home and Netflix streaming) it is my impression that iCloud might be quite limited due to data transfer times.
    Perhaps a factor would be that I have 2 DSL lines and my main DSL line is connected to two wireless routers (to also provide WiFi in a metal building that blocks WiFi and Cellular signals)
    I may be totally wrong in my assumptions regarding iCloud. My mail is not so urgent that I need access to it instantly and I could wait until I had internet access or I can get it on my iPhone. My main concern with iCloud would be my data files (Word, Pages, Excel, Numbers etc.).
    On the other hand, if I wanted to keep my 10,000 emails that would take up a lot of iCloud memory and I don't know how to measure how much storage it would take or how to move Hotmail or even iCloud mail to iCloud.
    It may take me some time to figure this out.

  • I purchased a Mac book pro in oct 2011, I restarted it after updating and it,s stuck on apple symbol, I hit command R while restarting and clicked on disk utility. It says disk can't be repaired, apple wants $249 to tell me what's wrong. Please help!

    What Apple store told you they wanted $249.00 to tell what is wrong?
    If this is a 13" Macbook Pro then that is the cost of the Extended Applecare warranty. As you are outside the 90 days of Free Phone Support then what Apple told you is that to get Phone Support you would either need to pay $45 per phone call or pay $249.00 for the Applecare extended warranty which comes with 3 years Free Phone Support from date of purchase.
    Or you can take it to a Apple Genius Bar and have them look at it for Free.
    Every Mac comes with 1 year warranty and includes only 90 days of phone support. You can buy the extended Applecare warranty anytime within the first year of ownership, IE until the 1 year warranty runs out.
    I suggest you have your computer looked at by either an Apple Authorized Repair Center or Genius Bar and then before the 1 year warranty runs out buying the extended warranty

  • Am I the only one that has had every charging cable (for my iPhones and my iPads) fail? Very frustrating. I got used to quality products from Apple but seems the small stuff is being overlooked nowadays.

  • FrameMaker and Apple's new iBook Author

    If anyone is thinking about Apple's new iBook Author tool as possible approach to creating tech comm content, Scott Prrentice has just posted his first look at the tool and how it might fit in a FrameMaker-based workflow.
    See: http://blog.leximation.com/2012/01/apple-ibooks-author-and-adobe-framemaker/
    Thanks Scott!

    Totally agree that is a restriction (along with the inability to even offer product in some markets as well).
    The blogosphere seems to be well aware of it. It's quite a reach for an EULA, and was probably cooked up back while Saint Steve was still in charge. Heck, why don't they just write in that you assign your copyright to AAPL.
    So anyone planning on becoming an iStore billionaire needs to know about it in advance.
    And the principal message is: do your original authoring on some other platform. Use iBA only to re-render for the iPrison.
    And we need some clarity on whether "the work" in the EULA is presumed to be pre- or post-iBA (or both).
    On further reflection as regards the blog link in the basenote, it may be no accident that iBA doesn't import some obvious formats like RTF or (pick up jaw) XML. I suspect that the AAPL lawyers are trying to discourage precisely what I recommend - author in some other tool. And no, I would not presume that they make no claims on your pre-iBA source document. This is lawyers we're talkin' about, after all, not human beings.

  • How to recover Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium after Apple wiped computer

    We installed the education edition with a new Macbook Pro.  Three years later Apple wiped the computer (twice) and, while we have the CDs, we don't have the paperwork with the serial number that the Apple Store used to load the software.

    The serial number is normally located on the disc casing.  If you ever registered the software with Adobe then the serial number should be available thru your Adobe account online.
