Can send podcast files only to iPod?

Actaully the only purpose I use iTune for is to find and listen to podcasts. I don't use iPod. It looks like iTunes can send podcast files to iPod (synchronize), but what about other devices? As for me, I'm using an iRiver mp3 player, which acts like a usb mass storage drive. When I plug the player in, Windows Media Player detects it and shows sync menu. But iTunes doesn't seem to do anything. So the bottom line is only iPod is compatible with iTunes? Is there any other way to use other mp3 player than iPod in iTunes? What I want to do is just send the downloaded podcast files to the iRiver player automatically.

Thank you for your answer.
It is a shame that iTunes supports only iPod, since there are many other mp3 players and many people are forced to use iTunes to find and subscribe to podcasts. Yes, I know there are many other podcast download programs, but the problem is there is no other way to find various Japanese podcasts than at apple store->podcasts. I hope I could access that page with normal web browser but apple blocks it. It surely looks like a web page but when I try to go to that page with my web browser, it redirects me to some other page.
So it looks like the only ways are,
1)Manually copy files to my iRiver
or
2)Find the url of podcasts from iTunes and then paste the url into other podcast download program such as ipodder.

How can I recover files from an iPod Touch (4th gen) prior to a required restore?

How can I recover files from an iPod Touch (4th gen) prior to a required restore?
The iPod Touch was working perfectly fine. iTunes suggest that I update the iPod Touch to the latest operating software, and I proceeded to do so. Then a message popped up stating that the iPod Touch needs to be fully restored - and that all data will be lost. The iPod Touch now displays the 'plug into iTunes' screen, and is stuck there. There are irreplaceable family momentos on the iPod Touch. How can I recover files from an iPod Touch prior to a required restore? HELP...

Your only hope is to contact a data recovery company. When it shows the connect to iTunes screen the iPod is essentially deleted.
You can restore from an existing backup

How can i copy files from my ipod to the i tunes?

i just reformatted my laptop, then i installed a new itune. my problem is how can i copy all my files from ipod to the new itune. I cant sync it with the new itune or else it will be erase all my files in the ipod..what can i do ? can you pls. help me.....

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it 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 the 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. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was 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 such as songs imported from CD 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. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 so it requires a little adaptation, also it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's 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, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, they are generally quite straightforward. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
YamiPod Mac and Windows Versions
iGadget Windows Only
iPod Access Mac and Windows Versions
Music Rescue Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac and Windows Versions
TuneJack Windows Only
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. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. Relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

Why when I use any chess app that can send PGN files to an e-mail, why does my iPhone can't send the PGN attachement file?

I downloaded the app "Chess score pad". It was supposed to send an email with a PGN attachement to me, but it didn't worked. it only sends the text but not the attachement. I can send other type of files like photos, audio and videos. Why can't I send PGN files? Help please!
I have already contacted the creator and we have already proved that the problem is with my iPhone only. What can I do? (The app works with other iPhones and iPads.)

I have been trying for more than one mont.
I have gone several times to both companies. Aldo two times to Apple uruguay, and nobody can help me.

Can't access files on my ipod from itunes

Anyone you understand??
I can't anymore access my files on my ipod from itunes. I can see what is there, but it won't allow me to delete any files on my ipod.
At start up, it does the syncronicing, finish in itunes but the display on my ipod never go beyond "do not disconnect". It won't allow me to close/remove the ipod from itunes - error message - some files are in use, can't close down ipod.

if you sync iPod, you can NOT delete music, podcasts, TV shows or videos in the iPod itself. if you want to delete it from the iPod, either delete it from iTunes and at the next syncing, the file will disappear.
Sometimes you also simply have to click a second time on the "eject" button after getting the warning that "some files in use".

Can't move files, only duplicate

hello,
i have some files at the root level of my laptop drive and i want to move them, but they only copy into their new locations (duplicating) they don't simply move with the gong sound. i'm wondering why. does it have to do with permissions or something?
thanks
max

A 'move' is just shorthand for a 'copy to new location X, and delete from old location Y'.
You can't delete something outside of your user account without Admin privileges. I haven't tested this, but for that reason I'd imagine you can't move files in the root directory. Copy them then delete them manually, supplying your Admin password when prompted.

How can I erase files on an Ipod without connecting to a computer?

I work for a small company that has lost the orignial Ipod installation discs. This being the case, there is no way for me to erase files from the Ipods. Is there any way to do this? Secondly, how can I get discs to reinstall the drivers and such for these Ipods?

You can't delete from the iPod directly. You need to use your computer.
Any software you need for the iPod can be downloaded free from Apple's website.

Why can i not receive email with my icloud account but I can send it out only

Hi Nortarian,
The article below will walk you through the troubleshooting steps for email on your iPad:
iOS: Unable to send or receive email
If you are unable to send or receive email, try the following steps:
Restart the iOS device.
Tap Safari and attempt to load a webpage to ensure that the device has Internet access. If you're unable to load a webpage, try the Wi-Fi assistant.
Try an alternative Internet connection.
If your email is provided by your Internet provider, try connecting from the home network.
If your iOS device has an active cellular data plan, try to disable Wi-Fi: Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn off Wi-Fi.
If not, try a different Wi-Fi network.
Log in to your email provider's website to ensure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Delete the account from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and then add the email account again on the iOS device.
Hope this helps ....

Frozen ipod touch 2G - BUT iTunes can send it files

I have a 2G touch that was having problems. It would freeze at the apple logo during startup. I tried the reset, but it didn't work. So I tried a restore.
I connected it to my computer and iTunes recognized it - so I did a restore as I saw many suggestions in the forums for this problem. The touch went through the restore process and I then set it up as a new iPod.
I transferred a couple files to it and then disconnected it from my computer. (While transferring files, iTunes said it was syncing, but the iPod just showed the white startup logo).
Now when I turn the iPod on, it hangs at the logo for about 5 minutes and then the twirly 'wait' icon thingy starts swirling on the logo for another 5 minutes. Then the whole thing shuts down completely and starts this again - over and over. I have connected to multiple computers and iTunes sees the iPod and the files I put on it. I have also tried restoring multiple times.
Also, I'm running iTunes 8.0.1.11, in Windows Vista and have iPod touch software version 2.2.1
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
(I'm ru

You can try the following to see if you can get it working again:
Make sure your iPod is not plugged in to your computer to start.
1. Turn if off - hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the red slider and turn it off. (you may not be able to do this given it's state)
2. Start iTunes on your computer
3. Press the Home button and keep holding it while you plug your iPod in. Continue to hold it until iTunes recognizes it as an iPod in recovery mode.
4. Follow the directions in iTunes and do not unplug it until you get the final "sync complete" message.

IPC vs. iPod Shuffle, can see music files on my iPod?

I have downloaded iTunes onto my pc, but when I attempt to open my ipod shuffle, I either get rerouted to hte music library on my computer OR the only viewable file is "autorun". I checked my ipod and all the music is on there???

Hyphen says:
[The] drive can be formatted as fat32 and be read/written by macs. He could also partition it, one partition as hfs+, the other as fat32. This can be done from disk utility.
The NTFS format (windows) has only read support for OS X.
How did s/he copy the music on the external drive? Was the music on his/her pc? If yes the hierarchy may be different for the pc version of iTunes library, or is it that he can't find the files even from the finder?
And Red Dwarf adds:
Just to add to hyphen's reply, FAT32 has a maximum size of 32GB. The user cannot make the partition larger than 32GB should they decide to go down that route.
Another alternative is a utility called TransMac. When installed on a PC, it will allow the PC to recognise a Mac OS formatted drive and read the files within. No need then to worry about all that FAT32 and NTFS malarky stuff. It weighs in at $64 dollars though for a 1-3 user licence:

So hopefully, with Kappy's help, too, you will be able to figure it out.
Good luck.

Can AirDrop share files with an iPod Touch?

Can AirDrop be used to send and receive PDFs (or other files) between a MacPro and a 3rd gen iPod Touch?

No. AirDrop is for sharing files between AirDrop users, meaning Macs with Lion installed, and even so, as babowa says, not every Mac supports it. It's a Lion feature, currently not present in iOS.

No music on ipod but in disk mode I can play the files from the ipod

My company now requires our laptops to be encrypted. So we have this Utimaco Safeware stuff installed. Ever since it was installed my ipod no longer can play music. Odd thing is I can put the ipod into enable disk use and the songs are there and I can play them in quicktime. After I disconnnect the ipod the ipod tells me there is no music.

If the files were placed on the iPod outside of iTunes or another iPod manager, the iPod will not recognize them as songs. Those transferred to the iPod through iTunes will not normally be visible as files on it.

I can't deletting files in the iPod 7G, how formating?

I'm tired of this crap, I try to delete and instead what I do is worsen the situation, please tell me or send me a video of how to format my iPod 7G

After completing the Restore, the best way to load content on the iPod is through automatic syncing.
Connect the iPod and select it in the sidebar, under DEVICES. Over to the right, there is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary). Click on Music there. This is the Music tab, where you tell iTunes how to sync your iPod with songs.
Check the box for Sync Music. If your entire iTunes music library can fit on your iPod, you can choose to sync Entire music library. Then, everything in your iTunes music library, including playlists, syncs to your iPod. Click Apply and you can skip the next three paragraphs.
Otherwise, you can choose to sync Select playlists, artists, albums, and genres. One way to set this up, if you want to keep it simple, is to create a new regular playlist in iTunes. From your iTunes music library, put ALL songs you want on the iPod on that playlist. Back on the Music tab, find and checkmark that one playlist under Playlists.
When you click Apply, iTunes loads the iPod with your selection on the Music tab, which in this case are the songs on that playlist. Going forward, when you want to change the songs on the iPod, just update that "iPod songs" playlist (add and remove songs). The next time you connect the iPod, or click the Sync button, your changes automatically sync to the iPod.
You can add more playlists to your selection on the Music tab, and also select specific artists, albums, and/or genres. The concept here is NOT to manage the iPod directly and manually. Instead, you manage your iTunes library and settings on the Music tab, and let iTunes handle the iPod.
NOTE: There are other "tabs" next to the Summary and Music tabs. Those tabs are for setting up other types of iTunes content for automatic syncing to the iPod.

How can I export files from my ipod classic and reset it without losing content and syncing it to a new library?

I'm trying to export the files that exist on an ipod classic. It belongs to my girlfriend, and she doesn't want to lose any of the music on it. But she wants to sync to a new PC and not lose the content. So, I want to export all the files and then place those files plus start a new itunes library with it. If I were to sync to my PC, would it erase all of the existing data? Can I buy/download a program that would allow me to upload all of the existing content on her ipod classic to my PC and then take that and place it back on by syncing it through her new laptop and adding the exported files....?

See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

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?
