Cant see or sync Itouch with new Mac Book

I guess if I could see it I could probably get it to sync but no dice.
I am updated to the latest OS 10.5.2 and on Itunes 7.6.2(9).
It will not even come up as a HD disk.
It does however recognize it in the profiler.
THoughts thanks
jack

See if this helps :-

Plug your iPod in and when it appears in iTunes, click on it from under Devices in the left hand pane. This brings you to the Summary tab. Locate and click on the Music tab. What configurations do you have made from under this tab? Is your iPod configured to sync those playlists?

I am not certain this will fix your problem but I suggest you assign the printer a static IP address.
Using the printer's front panel, select Menu > Network > WLAN > TCP/IP > Boot method, and change it to "static". Provide a static IP address that is on your LAN's subnet.
For example, if you are using an AirPort Extreme, you might give it an IP address of 10.0.1.100. If you are using a Netgear or Linksys router that defaults to issuing 192.168.x.x addresses, you might give it an address of 192.168.1.100. That way, the printer will always "reside at the same address" on your network. If your router has the ability, you should reserve that address so that the router does not attempt to assign it to another DHCP device.
Then, go to System Preferences > Print & Scan, and delete your existing printer with the "–" (minus) button. Add it again, using the "+" (plus) button. In the window that appears, select the IP pane, and from the Protocol menu select "Line Printer Daemon (LPD)". In the Address field type the IP address you gave your printer.
If all goes well the "Pring Using" field will detect the printer at that address and automatically select the appropriate driver. You will see something similar to the following screenshot ("name" can be whatever you decide, and "location" is optional):
Click Add, then you can close System Preferences.
There are other possible reasons your printer is "not responding" which could include wireless interference from competing wireless networks, but try this "static IP" method first. It should mitigate the problem.

I was syncing my ipod touch on a friend's computer and now want to sync to my new mac book, will I lose all my stuff?

I was syncing my ipod touch on a friend's computer and now want to sync to my new mac book, will I lose all my stuff?

Not if you do the following:
- Transfer iTunes purchased to the new computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using one of the third-party programs discussed here:
new PC: Apple Support Communities
- Move a copy of the iPod backup file from the old to new computer. That file is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
- After the stuff is moved/transfered, restore the iPod from the backup you just moved to the new computer and sync as necessary.

Sync iPad with new mac in without old mac

Have moved to another city than my home, left iMac at home (old without intel so no cloud) -- bought new iMac and want to sync my ipad now to the new mac NOT the old. It wants to erase my ipad --- don't want to lose my aps. How do I stop the sync with old mac and switch to new -- won't be back in old house til mid-Feb so want to sync now with new. As iMacs are different version and in different cities I couldn't just write my files from one to another so transferred via external drive my music and photos. Now want to ensure I can sync my iPad. Advice on how I do this without losing all my aps? Thx.

Read this discussion and see my posts (Demo) and King Penguin's posts. If you follow the instructions that we discussed you should be fine. There are ways to get all of iPad content into iTunes on the new Mac discussed in this thread.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3305461
Whatever does not apply - just ignore. The only change in terminology for a Mac running iTunes is iTunes>Preferences>Devices - not Edit>Preferences>Devices like on a PC.

Ipod synced with old pc now dead, can I keep data while syncing it with new Mac?

I have an old iPod with 8 gb music on it. It was previously synced with a PC whose HD is now dead, so the iPod is the only place where the data is still available. The iPod was not attached to an Apple ID back then. Can I attach it now to my Apple ID, synch it with my new Mac Book and still keep the data on it?
Thank you in advance

Yes you can

Problems with new Mac Book Pro 13'' +power adaptor

Hi there,
I'm new here and first of all I'd like to appologize from my lack of technical language, since my only interesst in computers is that they don't give me problems so I can keep not knowing too much about them.
Ok, so I bought the new Mac Book Pro 13'' exactly 2 months ago cause my old and long travelled Power Book G4 died. I didn't hesitate to spend the money to buy the new one, cause I was so happy with my experience with the old one and in my mind returning to PCs was not even considered.
BUT...I'm not totally happy about my new laptop...from day 1 Safari would just close itself but I didn't give too much thought about it. After this, not only Safari can close up to several times a day, but also iphoto or any other program that I use for work. But that's not all..One day it would take minutes to start running and it would go extremely slow...another day it would start also very slow but also it wouldn't show the tools bar on top or my folders. Another time it would show me, instead of the normal starting page, a page where it would ask me to accept or not a kind of revision for hardware. After so many problems of course I pressed yes...everything seemed normal, then computer started and seemed to be running normal again (aside from this safari and other programs that shut down). Today my computer, when moved, just went totally blank but fortunately I could start it with nor problems after it.
So...anyone knows what the problem must be?? Should I take it to a Technical service ??? and there's another issue...i'm handing in m phD in a week so I can't just be without computer now, and in a week I'm flying to Canada where I also will need my computer for work...what can I do???
And the second problem...the power adaptor from the beginning seemed to act funny sometimes...sometimes charching, sometimes not, I would follow the instructions in the support part and after being several minutes changing one cord for the other, to keep it 1 minute disconnected and so at some point it would start functioning again. But this happened seldom so also I would think it was a protectiion mechanism of the adapter. But, when this is happening more often than not, then it gets annoying. Also I've been transporting it in a careful way since I bought it to find that after only 2 months in the cord (from the computer to adaptor) you can see the internal cable as if there was some cut...a third one seems to be appearing too. I've taken it to the technical support and the guy who was helfpul but also honest said he couldn't do anything for me cause since there were those cuts, he could always be said that it was a misuse of it-an accident and then he would have to pay the replace himself. Well, it's not!!! My old adaptor has been transported in a way less careful way and it's survived with NO problems for 5 years. The material is clearly different from the old cord. This one because it's new, I only need to put it in a special bag air protected. Honestly I don't feel happy to pay 80 € for an adaptor that I don't know if it's gonna last me only 2 months or that I know I can't transport normally. The guy suggested me to ask in forums and to call directly to the apple technical service.
Again, has anyone had any similar problems with the adaptor???

Take it to an Apple retailer and have the computer repaired. It is still in warranty.

Many Problems with New Mac Book

I just recieved my brand new Mac Book Pro laptop today from UPS and I noticed a couple of things: 1.) The Machine was already on when I pulled it out of the box 2.) I notice that the safari browser had browsing history from prior days, like someone had already used the laptop before and didn't wipe it or they just ship me the store displayed laptops when I'm suppose to get it "brand spanking new". 3.) The OS is Lion, when it should have been upgrade to Yosemite. 4.) I can't change the Best Buy Administrator user password, I add my Apple ID to the Admin account but the "Allow user to reset password with Apple ID" option is disable for some reason, so I can't download the software I need for work. How do I change the password? This is highly unacceptable and poor quality of inspection of product!! I paid too much money for this product to be in this state when it should have been brand new!

Hello and welcome to the forum DCGal,
Buying an Apple product is never a small investment, but as an Apple lover I can honestly say their products are worth every penny. (I love my iPad) I can definitely understand the disappointment you felt when you opened your package in anticipation of using your MacBook and discovered that it was in less than brand new condition. I'm very sorry to hear this has happened to you.
That being said, using the e-mail you registered on the forum, I was able to locate the purchase and noticed that you were offered discounts due to it being a clearance model. Was this a display model? I suggest you take it back to the store where you purchased it. Regrettably if this was a clearance model they might not have another one to exchange it with, but they can certainly assist you with the issues you are having. I truly apologize for the inconveniece this may cause, and I assure you I will be documenting your experience for further training opportunities.
Once again thank you for visiting the forum, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
Sincerely,

How to sync iPhone with new Mac without losing all my iTunes?

I have recently got a new MacBook after my old one crashed... but I have been told that anything not bought would be lost when I sync my iPhone with my new Mac... I have already transferred the bought songs etc... is there a way (cheap or free if possible!) to transfer my music and videos to my iTunes library on my Mac?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
Option 1:
     If you have purchased a new Mac from an Local Apple store, I'd advise you to bring in your old computer along with your new one in, and have them assist you on transferring. (Assuming your computer doesn't not even power up)
Option 2:
     If your computer can be powered up (seeing the Apple Logo), and your hard drive is fine, then you can connect the two computers by using a Firewire cable, and then transfer the music files by drag and drop.
     http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661
Option 3:
     There are 3rd party software that you may purchase used to extract music from your iPhone, but it will have to be done at your own risk. You may Google for extracting music from iPhone for a start.

Upgrading from old Mac to new- how to sync iPhone with new Mac?

Hi all,
My dad is upgrading from an old iBook to a nice new iMac. He has spent quite a few days tweaking his new iMac and importing old files and folders. The one thing we haven't yet done, though, is iTunes. He has an iBook G3 that he syncs his iPhone with, and he wants to be able to "move" his whole iTunes setup to the new iMac so that it picks up right where the iBook left off, without needing to reset the iPhone.
One thing to keep in mind is that the iBook had a tiny hard drive and thus the music files are actually on an external hard drive. I was wondering how to go about this feat. I read that using Migration Assistant deletes everything off the new Mac, so that's not an option at this point. Thanks for the help!

If you had use Migration Assistant to start with it would have been easier.

Sync iDevices with new Mac?

I have upgraded to a new iMac. The old iMac is still in service, used by another family member. I used Setup Assistant to transfer my account, iTunes library, etc. to the new computer.
I have an iPhone 4 and an iPad1, both running iOS 5.0.1. Both were set to sync wirelessly to the old iMac.
Wi-Fi Sync on the devices looks for the original iMac.
Because the profile, backups, etc should be on both iMacs at this point, can I just plug the devices in to the new iMac and sync without any need to erase or reset the devices? I'd really like to avoid the whole setting up as a new device if I can avoid it.
Is there anything I need to do to switch the device's allegiance to the new iMac? anything I need to do on the old iMac to turn off the sync connection, either before or after syncing with the new iMac?

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iDevices. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your devices from those backups again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
