  • Can't use my ipod! HELP!

    I'm hoping someone has some advice here:
    After transferring songs from itunes to ipod, it will not play. When play button is pushed, it acts like it's going to (showing song title, etc) but it freezes. I can go back to menus and skip to the next song, but it won't play anything. There is a lot of static then silence. Sometimes, after waiting several minutes it will begin to play for a couple of seconds, but will freeze again. It has done this since the first song I added, and I have not been able to use the ipod because of this.
    I've tried updating, restoring, making sure battery is full & turning off after adding songs. If I slide the hold button over (so it won't turn off) and hold down the play button, there will be a bunch of static and it may play. Once I take my finger off the play button (while hold is still on mind you) it stops. Not convenient at all!

    Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't help. I'm so frustrated I want to cry! I bought this thing off e-bay (new, sealed in box yet refurbished) and it came w/a warranty. As I'm filling out the info. to send it in for repair, low and behold Apple says the warranty is expired. I just called last Saturday and spoke w/a girl who got me registered and said the warranty was fine.

    If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode to try and restore it, it's a very good indication, as mentioned in the article, that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and in need of replacement either by Apple or a third party repair company.

    I can't use my iPod. I've got an iPod classic 80 gb. When i connect it to the usb it says "VERY LOW BATTERY. PLEASE WAIT" ...but i charge it for 24 hs and nothing! it does not work.

    My iPod is broken?
    Thank you very much for your help: Ceci.-
    (do not use difficult words to answer my question, because i will not understand you! )

    Hi Ceci,
    How long have you had your iPod? If you use it a lot, after a few years the battery may be dying.
    Is there an Apple certified service provider near you? They might be able to check it for you.

  • Can i use one ipod on two computers?

    Can anyone help me please?
    My son has ipod shuffle and has a separate itunes account, but before he got an ipad for his birthday, we set up itunes on my home computer, using my itunes account.
    His account has lots of credit whereas mine now doesn't as we have to use my account to purchase his music!
    We need to know if it's possible for him to purchase music from his itunes account either directly from his ipad or from my computer using his itunes a/c and ipod. A friend told him that he can't use his ipod on another account as it would wipe out his songs. Is this correct?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I think you need to manually update on at least the computer that has the smaller music selection.
    it may be best to turn off automatic updates on both machines and manually add and delete songs.
    or you could network both computers to share one music library

  • How can I use my iPod as source for reinstalled iTunes?

    Hello @ all.
    Unfortunately I had to completely reinstall my system (WinXP Pro PC) and lost my media library!
    How can I use my iPod as a source to copy all my songs and settings (incl. covers, aso) to iTunes?
    iPod: 30GBs Video iPod
    iTunes Version: 7.0.2.16
    can u guys help me with that?
    Thanks very much!

    The transfer of purchased content to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
    The transfer of non iTMS content is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
    iGadget Windows Only
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
    PodUtil Mac and Windows Versions
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
    PodPlayer Windows Only
    CopyPod Windows Only
    If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Can I use my iPod on my home computer and work computer?

    This may be a very dumb question, but can I use my iPod on my home computer and work computer? I noticed that it seems to want to do weird things to my iPod if I try to hook it up on my work computer (I have all of my music on my home computer... it is backed up 1 or 2 times a week to preserve my music). Thanks for any help.

  • How can I use my iPod nano on more than one computer?

    How can I use my iPod nano on more than one computer?

    Hi, China6450.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I would recommend setting up Manually manage music.  This will only allow music to be synced from the computer to the iPod nano.  Here are some helpful articles that will walk you through the process.

  • Can I use 1 iPod on 2 computers if 1 is a Mac and the other is a PC?

    I am a Mac user primarily and I use my iPod with iTunes on my Mac most of the time. Every so often I want to connect my iPod to my PC but after installing the software that came with the iPod and then connecting it to the PC it tells me that I need to format the iPod for Windows.
    So the bottom line question is....how can I use the iPod on both and be able to go back and forth without complications?

    Here's a link that will give you some of the information you need. The most important thing when switching between OS is that the iPod will have to be formatted for Windows. A Mac can handle a Windows formatted iPod, a PC can't handle a Mac formatted iPod. Hope this helps.

  • Can i use my ipod as hard-drive with pc and mac??

    thanks
    (transfering my pc itunes library to macbook is not urgent yet....but would it be as easy as just copying the song files across? something like itornado usb wire....)

    *can i use the ipod as a hard drive to transfer files to macbook??*
    Macs can read Windows formatting so if your iPod was first used and formatted on a PC you should have no issue with using it as a removable hard drive on the Mac: How to determine your iPod's disk format
    Just for reference, iPods formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Mac formatted iPods can only be used on a PC that has a third party helper program such as XPlay or MacDrive installed.

  • Can I use the iPod Nano cable and AC power supply with the iPhone?

    Just purchased my iPhone 3G. Phone was in my pocket and the AT&T clerk neglected to put the box with the computer cable in the bag with the other accessories.
    Until I can pick it up, can I use my iPod Nano cable? The plug seems the same size but I don't want to break anything.
    Also, there was no power supply in the box due to the recall. Can I use the iPod AC power supply I bought for the iPod? It is the white brick about 3" by 3" by 1" with a USB socket in the side.
    Thank you for helping me with my start-up glitches.

    Ps. When you do get the accessories, look for a green dot (on the side where the prongs of the plug come out). If there, fine; if not, your adapter is subject to the recently announced recall of ultracompact USB adapters.

  • Can I use my Ipod touch to surf the internet on my HDTV?

    Can I use my Ipod touch to surf the internet on my HDTV?

    The quality is questionable, and text when viewed at a short distance does become un-readable, although, viewed from a distance, the touch outputs the PERFECT browsing experience in rich colour, and text with anti-alias.
    Also, it is to e noted that the old composite and component cables are still being sold on the online Apple store, alongside the new and improved one which support the ipod Touch. The old cable sets DO NOT support the iPod Touch even though the site may say they do. I reported this to Apple Onine and they changed the old cable set compatibility pictures to not feature the ipod touch anymore.
    On the subject of accessories for the toouch, you may also be inclined to know that I have confirmation from Apple that the current 'camera conector/adapter' they are selling on the Apple Online Store, DOES support transfer of photos from your camera to the iPod Touch. And for £20, its a spiffy gadget to have in your pocket.
    Thats All. Hope this helps your decision to invest.

  • Can I use my iPod touch while it's charging?

    Hi, I've tried to research this so I wouldn't have to ask, but have had no luck. So, my question is, can you use your iPod Touch while it is plugged into the charger? Would that do any damage to the iPod? Thanks, Diane

    Axel, I meant to also mark your response as Solved, but I checked Helpful by mistake. Hope that didn't take any "points" away from you. Diane
