Can I use iCloud with my iPod nano and windows laptop?

not clear how to use iCloud with an iPod Nano and a Win 8.1 PC

iCloud doesn't work with the iPod nano directly, and will only work on a PC with an already-existing iCloud account; these need to be created from a Mac or an iOS device.

  • Can I use icloud with my ipod touch ?

    It's a 2nd gen, 8GB, version 4.2.1. I'm not even able to follow steps for setting up icloud because when I go to settings and software updates, there is not even a software update category.

    Thanx Winston. I understand what the "cloud" is and is not but I just received an ad about "iCloud Everywhere" via iTunes while shopping and I see it on Apple's website too. Through " iCloud Everywhere" you can upload music and thus "make it available on all your devices", according to Apple. Media can then be either streamed to all your devices through the cloud or you can download. They mention for example that you can download a movie if you know you'll be in a place where wifi is not available. They also point out that you can save songs that you didn't buy via iTunes Store and later stream through all your devices. Ergo my question. If I have an iTunes account and buy the iCloud Everywhere subscription I should be able to upload to my Everywhere files regardless of computer registration. Correct? There are programs outside Apple that claim to be able to merge differently registered Apple devices and they want the same amount of money as iCloud Everywhere. I would rather stay with Apple if that's possible. After all it's not fair to lose your media just because your computer crashes or is replaced. I know I raise several issues here so if you can help on the iCloud Everywhere question I'd appreciate any help.

  • Can I use windows Me/98 with my ipod nano and I need itunes help??!!

    Hey!!,
    Ok so I just recieved my Ipod nano today from the post man! and I want to use it with windows Me/98 is that possible?
    I also downloaded the newest version of itunes and it said that "itunes requires that your computer is running windows
    2000 or windows XP".Can I use a later version of itunes with me ipod nano and where can I download it from ?!
    someone please help me Im dying to use my ipod nano!!

    You cannot use iTunes under Windows 98/ME. For just synchronizing tracks with your iPod, you could get a third-party utility such as Anapod, Ephpod, or Xplay for handling the transfer. I haven't used any of these and I don't know if any support the new iPod nanos, so I can't make any recommendations. These applications cannot connect to the iTunes Music Store, so unless you upgrade, you won't be fully supported and will not be able to purchase tracks from the iTMS.
    I strongly suggest you consider upgrading your version of Windows, though. Windows ME is no longer supported by Microsoft and it's going to get harder and harder to find applications that will work under 95/98/ME.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can i update my old 2006 iMac Intel core 2 duo running 10.6.8 to OSX Lion so that I can sync using iCloud with my newer devices?  Mountain Lion is not an option for my older model and Lion is no longer available at App store.

    Call Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).

  • I am using iPhoto '09 Version 8.1.2 but can not use iCloud with it. I've looked for updates in iPhoto and iLife'11 but no luck. Suggestions very welcome.

    No you won't necessarily lose your photos when upgrading but it's very very unwise not to back up first. Backing up is like using a seat belt in a car. You can drive without one for years and have no issues, but if you do have a problem the outcome will be a lot worse. So, too, with back ups. And upgrading is one of those times when the risks of a problem are higher.
    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • How do I back up Contacts on my  iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way I export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

    How do I back up Contacts on my  iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way Ican  export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

    Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
    Before syncing contacts with an empty Windows Contacts address book, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data which you want to select. Syncing direct with Windows Contacts via the iTunes sync process is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • How can I use iCloud with Pages?

    How can I use iCloud with Pages?  Not offered as a Save option.

    You are stating you have MacOs 10.6.8 and iCloud isn't available with that system.

    can i use icloud with my powerbookG4 running OS 10.4.11?

    It can be upgraded, if you want more use out of it.
    It just can't be upgraded enough for iCloud.
    For example, you can upgrade it to 10.5. But not 10.7.

  • TS1702 I have recently begun to use Pages and want to transfer a document between the iPad and my PC. I can transfer to the iPad, but not the other way, and am told I do not have sufficient 'privileges'. What does this mean? Also can't use iCloud with Pag

    I have recently begun to use Pages and want to transfer a document between the iPad and my PC. I can transfer to the iPad, but not the other way, and am told I do not have sufficient 'privileges'. What does this mean? Also I can't use iCloud with Pages between the iPad and PC,  although I purchased extra storage in order to do this.

    If you have a PC, you don't have Pages on it. You can transfer Pages presentations to/from iCloud via http://www.icloud.com , however -- you just won't have an app on your PC to deal with Pages documents. Make sure that you have your iCloud account properly configured on your iPad.

  • Interesting occurance with 1gb ipod nano and on-the-go playlist creation ..

    interesting occurance with 1gb ipod nano and on-the-go playlist creation might be helpful to some.
    NOTE: the feedback form isnt up to date for software versions for 1gb ipod nano (newest here is 1.1.1 but i have 1.3.1).
    it seems i cannot create on-the-go playlist by holding album OR artist, with my 1gb ipod nano with VERSION 1.3.1 software, if there are various sizes of playlists in my ipod. i had about 4 playlists with 1 song in them and 2 -3 playlists with 5 - 30 songs in them. total space on ipod used was about 400mb of 896mb and about 1500 songs (most poor quality to save space (18-48kbs - i noticed some of the lower qualities have overtones of whistle or cricket like sounds (i have many ambient songs birds, thunder storms, etc)).
    i just manually deleted ALL playlists also deleted 945 songs on my ipod with itunes, and now i am able to do it. i can even do it now with composer or genre etc (which isnt listed in the playlist creation instructions). i now have 612 songs with 113mb free.
    p.s. i tried to leave this as bug feedback but got a strange message that was like a command pointing to a thank you for leaving feedback page.

    I have got this problem with my new 8gb nano too. Its very sad I had my mini stolen from my person whilst in a hospital bed dozing and it worked from the same itunes list and I could add albums or artists or songs now on the new replacment nano I can only add songs. Very annoying, please let me know if anyone can solve this. I too have reset and restored it numerous times. I am in the uk I think you are in the states.

  • I am going to japan with an Ipod nano and Iphone 4. Do I need a converter? or does the one the iphone comes with that plugs into the wall enough?

    I am going to japan with an Ipod nano and Iphone 4. Do I need a converter? or does the one the iphone comes with that plugs into the wall enough? I know i wont need an adapter because it will fit into the wall outlet, but voltage wise, will i need a converter? Japan runs on 100 V. I am so confused on all of this...

    As long as the adapter is 2 pronged, then you should be able to use it without any problems.

  • I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod"

    I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod" - I've had the adapter for several years and I think it's ok for my ipod touch but since it pre-dates both of these products I want to try and make sure it's ok to use with them before I do use it. Thanks.

    If iTunes does not see your iPod then your only hope is a data recovery company. Not cheap.
    However, you may be able to get some photos by:
    Photos
    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore another iPOd, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

  • Using Speakers with the ipod nano...help?!

    Hi, I was hoping someone could help me. I have the ipod nano and am planning a party. The room is very long and narrow. I was wondering if I can connect speakers to the nano to reach both ends of the room (about 200 feet long). We really want it as background music. Which speakers should I get?
    I also have a pretty good docking station, can I connect speakers to it? Do they make cords long enough to reach both ends of the room?
    Thanks so much!!!

    You can certainly attach speakers to your nano, but there are a few things to think about:
    1. If you try to run the nano off its battery during the party, you may find that you lose music when the battery runs out. Think about connecting the nano to a charger while the party is going on.
    2. Parties typically get pretty loud. The nano is designed to drive headphones, not speakers, so you are not going to get enough volume just by connecting speakers to the headphone jack. You need to either use powered speakers (less good solution) or feed the nano into an amplifier and connect the speakers to the amp (better solution).
    Enjoy you party! With the "party shuffle" feature, you can enjoy a great mix.
