  • I have just purchased a new Mac and want to sync my ipod - previous computer was PC - can I recover tunes from the ipod to the Mac?

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPod but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPod with it.
    above covers purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Can I use AirPlay from my PC to my AppleTV when connected to an AirPort via LAN cable?

    Well as stated above I'm wondering if I can use AirPlay from my PC to my AppleTV when my PC is connected via LAN cable to an AirPort.
    I'm asking because usually your PC has to be on the same Wifi as your other Apple device, so AirPlay can function, and id love the ability to Stream via AirPlay but still be connected to the internet via LAN cable.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    AirPlay is not restricted to wireless only. It can also work over Ethernet. Basically as long as there is a connection (on the same subnet) between the iTunes host and the AirPlay "speaker" streaming should take place without any issues.
    FWIW, My Win8 PC is connected to a Time Capsule via Ethernet. In turn my Apple TV is connected to the TC's wireless network. I have no trouble streaming from the PC to the Apple TV in this configuration.

  • Can i transfer music from my ipod to my mac

    Can I transfer music from my ipod back to my mac

    If you bought music, videos, etc. using the store on your iPod, iTunes will offer to sync your purchases back to your Mac the next time you sync. There's info about that here.
    If your iPod was synced to another computer previously, and that's how your current music got on your iPod, I think you need to use non-Apple utility software to transfer the content off of your iPod. I don't think we're supposed to talk about those here because the official transfer method as far as Apple is concerned is iTunes. And with iTunes, music is supposed to go in one direction, from the Mac to the iPod, unless you bought it on the iPod. This is to prevent people from using iPods to copy music to everybody else's computer.

  • How can I transfer files from my iPod to my Mac?

    I lost a bunch of old podcasts from my Mac and they are no longer on iTunes. I do have them on my iPod but I don't want to connect it to my Mac and have it sync up and lose the tracks. Is there a way to upload or transfer files or songs from my iPod to my Mac?

  • How can I use AirPlay from a wireless device while in 'Join a network' mode with an Ethernet client?

    I just got the brand new Airport Express (simultaneous dual-band 802.11n) and I'm trying to set it up to join an existing working wireless network that I have in my house, and to drive my home stereo amplifier and have my desktop hooked up via the wired Ethernet port on the Airport Express.  Here's how I set it up:
    -Wireless mode is 'Join a wireless network'
    -Wireless Network Name: <my home network>
    --Allow Ethernet clients is checked
    -Internet is configured via DHCP (it gets a valid DHCP lease and IP address on my subnet)
    -AirPlay is enabled
    -The audio out from the Airport Express is connected to my amplifier via an optical digital cable.
    If I leave it set up just as described above, I can select the Airport device from iTunes on my MacBook Pro and play music directly to the speakers.  Perfect.
    The problem comes when I go to plug in my desktop to the wired Ethernet port on the Airport Express.  As soon as I plug in the Ethernet, AirPlay stops working on the laptop.  Even if iTunes is in the middle of playing a track, the track will stop when the Ethernet cable is plugged in (with a device on the other end).  Doesn't matter which of the two Ethernet ports I use.  My desktop is able to use the internet while plugged in to the Airport Express, but iTunes on the laptop is no longer able to connect to the Airport Express to use AirPlay.
    I've found that if instead of plugging my desktop into the Airport Express's wired ethernet, I plug in the laptop, then iTunes on the laptop is able to use AirPlay -- but then no other devices on the network are able to use AirPlay.
    It appears that as soon as I plug in a wired Ethernet device to the Airport Express it only "listens" to AirPlay connections from devices connected to that wired interface.  But this is the opposite of what I want.  I want it to listen to AirPlay connections from wireless devices connected to the same network as the Airport Express.  Is this possible?  Is there some hidden setting I have to enable?
    Thanks!

    Hi Hreb,
    I can find nothing wrong with your configuration, but I was curious if there were something illegal about having an Express "join" a wireless network, and still have AirPlay enabled for wireless clients while simultaneously serving as a bridge to a wired one.
    To address that uncertainty I implemented your proposed application with the preceding model AirPort Express, and determined it works as you would expect it to: I connected a wired-only PC to the Express, verified that it can connect to the Internet, and streamed Airtunes from a Mac to speakers connected to the Express. I think this is what you want, and it works with no surprises. I was also able to stream Airtunes from the PC connected to the Express as you did, but as you know only one device can stream to the Express at any one time.
    I do not have a new simultaneous dual band Express to test though, so all I can conclude is that there may be a bug with the new one that is preventing you from accomplishing this.
    Since it is new, I recommend you call Applecare on Monday and explain what you are trying to do. Explain it works with the older Express and you think this ability should remain unchanged with the new dual band model. It is likely they won't be able to help, and at best will offer to exchange it for another one, but if it is a bug as I suspect any replacement dual-band Express will behave the same way.
    The important thing is to inform Apple and obtain a case number so that this problem will eventually get the attention of Engineering who might be able to address this with a future update.
    Let me know what you find out. Thanks.

  • HT4437 using airplay from my ipod touch 4th gen. no audio output from the tv. on the ipod it shows that it is streaming to the apple tv. whats the problem

    i get the air play icon on my ipod touch. when i click it the output from my ipod stops but i dont get any audio from my tv. whats the problem?

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How can i play music from my ipod on another mac?

    i have my music library in itunes (on my ibook). i transfered the songs to my ipod. how can i play the music on my g5? i see the ipod in itunes and also the songs, but i cannot cklick "play".
    g5   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    It is set to Auto update.
    If it is set to Auto update, when you plugged it in, it updated the iPod to match you iTunes library. Just play them in iTunes.
    If you want to play songs on the Mac without loading the songs from the iPod, iTunes prefs -> iPod. Set to Manually update all songs and playlists. They will no longer be grey.
    You will have to sync the iPod from home first.

  • Can I use Airplay from my Mac to AppleTV

    i'm interesting in streaming some TV shows to my apple tv from a browser.  i can do it from my iphone with no probelm, but can't seem to figure out how to do it from my Mac.
    I have a 2.66 Hgz Quad Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro running OS X Version 10.8.4

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).

  • I can't use airplay from iphone/ipad when I update the system

    It has been showed that "an error occurred loading this content, try again later".
    how can i fix that?
    and why apple TV can't output the sound to the AirPort Express on wifi? only airpay？？？？
    so stupid...

    Actually, there is a solution, and it sounds to go against what you want until you realize how well it works.
    Seperate Apple IDs is the solution, but you can granularly sign into different things with different IDs.  Now, I'm in the exact same situation as you and saw the exact same problem.  Here was our solution:
    1) Create new Apple IDs for everyone that didn't already have one.  This meant my wife and daughter needed new IDs.
    2) Go into Settings -> Message and select "Receive At..."
    3) Change the Apple ID in iMessage on a per-device basis to the new ID for who ever owns that device.  For example, the new ID for my wife went on her phone, same with my daughter.
    Apple IDs are free, and you don't have to change the ID on every part of your phone.  For example, we still have the generic family ID on iCloud and the store, but we have our own unique ones signed in on iMessage and Game Center.  From what I can tell, this is the best of both worlds.

  • How can I transfer music from my ipod to a mac?

    I have just over 1000 songs on my 4th generation ipod touch. When I try transfering my ipod purchases onto my mac, it says I need to authorize my computer. So I authorize it, and then transfer the purchases. An error comes up saying there are 91 problems that I can not upload to my computer because my computer is not authorized...and so I cannot transfer any purchases. So I was wondering if there was anything i can do to get my songs on my ipod touch to my mac? Or am i left to just deal with not having my music?

    You need to authorize the computer for the accounts that purchased the music.
