Squeeze the sides of the connector to release the retaining pins. You should then be able to pull the cable out.

Can i delete songs from ipod touch once i upload them to icloud, can i delete songs from ipod touch once i upload them to icloud

once you upload songs,photos or documents fron ipod touch to icloud, can you delete them from ipod touch to free up memory from ipod touch and can you access them from icloud without downloading to ipod?

You can't upload music to iCloud unless you are an iTunes Match subscriber, and if you are the songs are uploaded or matched from the iTunes library on your computer, not your device. Photos are only uploaded to Photo Stream temporarily (30 days), for up to 1000 photos so it's not meant to be a permanent storage option. The uploaded photos are also generally of lower quality than the originals on your device. Also, only photos taken on your device after turning on Photo Stream are uploaded. Finally, when you turn Photo Stream on, uploaded photos will be streamed back to your device in a Photo Stream album (so it actually uses some of your memory rather than saving it). As for documents, only iWork documents are uploaded.
If you really want to free up storage on your device consider more permanent cloud storage services such as DropBox (which will handle photos and all documents).

Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

Can't delete song from ipod touch that is not in my library

Monty's solution will work if you have left the songs in one of your playlists. Another idea if that doesn't work is to check your iTunes list for that iPod. Check at the very bottom beneath the albums, artist,s and other content to add to your iPod, and be sure that you don't have individual songs selected to be added as well. If you do, eliminate them from that bottom list, and you should be fine.

How can we transfer games from ipod 4 to a different ipod 4

how can we transfer games from ipod 4 to a different ipod 4??

Follow the instructions here or here; using the first set of instructions then requires syncing the second device with the iTunes library containing the content. If you want to transfer the game data as well, perform a backup and restore.

Can't sync playlists from ipod touch to new computer

Can't Sync Playlists from iPod Touch to New Library
I just upgraded from an old Pentium computer to a new Dell XPS 18 running Windows 8.1. Downloaded latest version of iTunes to the new computer, then successfully transferred library content from the old computer to the new one via the external hard drive method. All material -- iTunes purchases, music ripped from CDs, a movie, even MP3 files purchased long ago from another source -- transferred successfully; everything plays on the new computer just fine.
My problem is that the "old" playlists didn't transfer over. After connecting my iPod Touch to the new computer, I verified that the iPod has the latest version of iOS, and its content (including the old/original playlists) displays in the window on the left-hand side of the iTunes screen. The really frustrating thing is that I can find no way to transfer the old playlists to my new iTunes library. I've tried dragging and dropping, selecting and pasting, and exploration of all the options menus, but no luck. Creating a new playlist in the new library and then clicking on the "Add To" button opens up a window into which to drop dragged songs/folders from the new library listing, but simultaneously closes the left-hand display window with all of my iPod's current playlists depicted.
I appear successfully to have backed up my iPod to the new computer, but all the sync menu options are grayed out. When I tried clicking on the Sync button, I got a warning that syncing to the new library would erase everything from the old library -- presumably obliterating my playlists with it. I have about a dozen different playlists, some of them with several hundred songs, drawn from a library of a few thousand individual items. Is there some means of importing/transferring the old playlists to the new computer/library, so that I don't manually have to drag and drop hundreds and hundreds of songs into a new set of playlists? Am I overlooking something really obvious or simple? Can I safely turn on Home Sharing and then import or paste the old playlists into the new computer's library. I don't think I'm too much of a Luddite, but given the size of my library I'm very leery of turning on Home Sharing (to the old Pentium computer) after I've successfully transferred over many GBs of content from the old machine to the new.
Thanks very much --

My ipad (1st generation) was stolen. How can I disconnect it from iCloud?

AS the device has gone, but is still connected the robbers have access to all the contenct stored in icloud. How can I disconnect it from icloud ??

Good morning Fromsouth,
I saw you gave very good advice to traintraveller and thought maybe you can gave me advice on my daughter's stolen ipad...
Our house was broken into this past thursday and the burglars took her ipad along with a couple hp laptops. I have since changed my apple & icloud ID and passwords, but still seeing it showing up as logged in when I go check device usage in my icloud's setting. The ipad location option was set on OFF, which means I have no way of tracking it. So How can I use icloud channel to lock it out of my icloud? I already done signing out everywhere thru icloud's adance data & security feature. Greatly appreciate for any advice you can provided.

Can i transfer music from ipod to a new computer i do not have my old computer

Can i transfer music from ipod to a new computer i do not have my old computer files as it crashed.

For purchased songs you can plug the iPod into you new computer and use the "File > Transfer Purchases from iPod" feature in iTunes. For music not purchased from the iTunes store you will need a third party program to help. There are a few of them out there, and they are easy to find on Google.

Can't see files from Ipod on Laptop

I sync my ipod from my XP computer at home, I want to play a movie on my laptop from my Ipod (I have about 30 movies loaded on it)
I can see it show up as the E: drive, as soon as I connect the Ipod to my laptop the Ipod flashes do not disconnect.
I can see my Ipod in the summary screen, it shows 25G of audio, 25G of video, 1.5G photos and other. When I click on the music tab, movies, photos...nothing is there.
On the main summary screen I have the following boxes checked for options:
Only sync checked items
Manually manage music and videos
Enable disk use
Why can't I use itunes to play one of the videos on my laptop from the Ipod? I tried browsing through the forum and looked at some other posts but I haven't been able to figure this one out.
Any Ideas? Thanks SJ

To my knowledge you cannot play from iPod to computer. Need to transfer from iPod to computer then play.
