Can't move, transfer or sync files from laptop to iPod

I have an 80 gig Classic and last week it decided not to sync. iTunes told me to restore. I did that. It would not sync any of the music or video that is still in the iTunes folders. After deleting iTunes, rebooting, downloading latest version and re-installing the same problem continues. The error message I get is "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod because they could not be found. For a list of items that could not be copied click below." It lists all of the files in my library. If I can find them in the library, see them with Windows explorer and they show up in iTunes, why can't they find their way to my iPod? What am I missing here? Any suggestions?

Hi brentfrommi,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like your iPod touch may not be recognized by iTunes. The troubleshooting steps in this article can help:

Can I move an ibook author file from one device to another?

I have ibook Author on my Macbook and my Mac Mini. If I start a project on my Macbook, is it possible to transfer the incomplete file to my Mini (where all my pictures and charts are stored) later to complete it?
~~ Chikana

Just like any other file, save your book where you can find it - it will have the suffix .iba
Move that file, however you like, to your other computer and continue there.

How can I move a large video file from my iphone ... iMac / PC

I have a large iPhone Video File that I cannot transfer from my iphone to my flashdrive as it is too big.
I realize that I can reformat an empty flash drive using Disk Utilities and I should then be able to transfer the file.
My question: What do I select when reformating the flash drive so that it will be accepted by both a PC and an iMac?

ExFAT would be the best file system format, as it will handle files greater than 4GB.
If exFAT is not available, go for FAT32.
Just FAT is too limiting, so avoid that

Can i move adobe photoshop to macbook from laptop?

I recently purchased a macbook pro to replace my old laptop (which had adobe photoshop and illustrator installed on it) is there anyway that i can move it from my laptop to my macbook ? as i don't want to fork out the money to buy it again?
Thank you

It's not an activation limit. With Photoshop CS6 and earlier perpetual licenses you simply can only run your license on one OR the other architecture - not both.
You'll need to get a crossgrade, after which you won't be able to run it on PC any more.
This is a limitation they somehow lifted with the Photoshop CC subscription model. With Photoshop CS6/CC running under the subscription plan you CAN run on both architectures.

How do I transfer edited NEF files from laptop to desktop without changing format or losing edits?

Hello,
While travelling last week I put approximately 3000 raw images on my MacBook Pro (Lightroom 4) and have edited many of them. I am now home and would like to copy everything onto my desktop computer Mac OS X Yosemite (Version 10.10.2) with Lightroom 4. I would like it to be excactly as it is on my laptop. I don't want to have to edit again, catagorize by star, etc. I would like it to be in Raw NEF format with my edits just like it is on my laptop - I just want it all on my desktop. Can someone tell me how to do this? I have a firewire and an external hard drive if needed. Thank you!

Use your backup copy of your computer.
Type "move itunes library" into the Google search bar. You will find instructions there.

How can I transfer a sound file from my "Voice Memos" app on my iPhone to my iPad?

In iTunes with your iPhone connected, click on the iPhone device, select the Apps tab, scroll down to the File Sharing section and pick an app that plays Quicktimes ("Files Connect" works in this example, but I'm open to suggestions of better apps for playing transferred Quicktimes) and drag your Quicktime from Finder to the Documents pane for the File Sharing app. Once the file transfer is complete, go to the app on your iPhone to play the Quicktime.

How can i transfer my music files from iPad 2 to MacBook Pro?

hello,
I got my mp3 files from PC and transfer to iPad 2. it works good.
And I want to transfer this mp3 files from iPad to MacBook Pro.
I don't know how to do it and it seems like I should 'buy some tranfer program from other website'.
Should it word that way? or iTunes program can't deal this issue?
I have changed some music file information (such as Album, Artist, etc) of mp3 files in iPad from iTune in MacBook. Of course, the iPad was connected to the MacBook. However after I disconnected the iPad from the Mac, those changes were not shown in the iPad (edited album name, artist name...). When I connect the iPad to the Mac again, I can see the changes in iTune in the Mac.
Another issue.

Issue 1 - music file transfer from iPad 2 to MacBook Pro
Issue 2 - music file info udate in iPad 2 through MacBook and it doen's implied after disconnected.
Issue 3 - Change calendar from Japanese to Gregorian in iPad 2
Please advise,
Have a great day!!
Brandon

A free app that can deal with music files is Songbird.
There are two paid apps that can transfer just about any type of file; TouchCopy and PhoneView

How can I transfer all my files from Mavericks Thunderbird to Mavericks Mail

How can I transfer all my files from Mavericks Thunderbird to Mavericks Mail?
Bonjour,
C'est ma première intervention aussi je ne sais pas si je peux m'exprimer en français.
Je tente!
Lors du passage à Maveicks, j'ai basculé sur Thunderbird car je ne souhaitais pas utiliser POP mais Mail ne le permettait pas (du moins je n'ai pas réussi)
Aujourd'hui, je souhaite revenir sur Mail et, pour celà, je dois rapatrier toutes mes données de messagerie depuis Thunderbird.
J'utilise Imap et, pour gérer ma messagerie, j'ai créé des boîtes aux lettres dans Local Folsders
Le passage par Eudora ne fonctionne pas avec Mavericks.
L'import de boîtes aux lettres depuis Local Folders de Thunderbird (via le menu Fichier) ne permet de transférer qu'un seul courier par boîte aux lettres de Local Folders. Et c'est ce qui m'empêche de passer à Mail.
Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

Can I transfer my CS5 files from my Windows 7 computer to my Mac Yosemite computer and have them work with CS6 for Mac?

I am using Dreamweaver CS5 on a Windows 7 laptop. I would like to change to Dreamweaver CS6 on my Mac running Yosemite. Can I transfer my CS5 files from the Windows computer to the Mac and will CS6 be able to work those files on the Mac? I do not need nor want a subscription account. Just the stand-alone program for occasional tweeks to my web site. at www.longwayhome.com.
It is a realtively simple web site that requires only simple editing from time to time.
Ed Dover

Yes, your files in CS5 are just .html, .css, .php and .js files, there's nothing that makes them "CS5 versions" of those file types.
You can do it a couple different ways, but the easiest would be to copy the folder being used as the root directory (and all of it's contents) from one machine to the other, then on the new machine, simply set up a new site definition, using that newly copied folder as the local root.
If you want, you can export your site settings (FTP and whatnot) on the old machine...
Go to Site > Manage Site> click the site you want > Export
Copy the resulting .ste file along with the local root folder to the new machine
On the new machine go to Site > Manage Sites > import to bring in the .ste
Relink that new site to the newly copied root folder

Bruno when you use Migration Assistant it creates an additional user. If you want the new machine to mirror the old machine I would recommend starting over, this time using Setup Assistant. The only thing to be cautious about is Applications, as you may know PPC based apps will not run in Lion. So check the old machine's apps to see which are PPC based, they will migrate to the new machine but will not run. If you have any then you will need to replace them with upgrades or alternatives. You can easily check which apps are PPC based on the old machine by opening About this Mac and selecting the bottom selection which brings up System Profiler. In SP click Applications on the left pane and it will soon populate, then look in the "Kind" column.
If you need help with Setup Assistant I would recommend carefully reading and using Lion Setup Assistant tips beginning at "Second chance....."
