Cd synch to iPod

I installed iTunes yesterday and I can't import songs from cd's to my computer. I looked everywhere and can't find the import cd button. I put a cd in the drive and it runs for 3 seconds and then nothing. Should I reinstall the software?

  • How do i synch my pdf/books to my library. I was able to synch my ipod touch purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.

    How do i synch my pdf/books to my Itunes  library. I was able to synch my ipod touch app purchases by transferring them but can't figure out how to do my pdfs. Also why is my ipod picture greyed out-the one that lets my move the icons around.
    I am afraid if i don't get the pdfs into my book library, i will lose them when i update to IOS 5-is that true?

    thank you-i have to check into the authorization and the account-i gave my husband my old ipod when i updated last year so both at one time have been on this computer but as it stands, it only comes up with my device when i plug into Itunes.
    i don't think i have any restrictions for installing apps although my normal way of doing it is to download from the ipod touch. i did find that all i had to do was right click on my device name and got the message to transfer my apps and then they showed up in my library. Also when i clicked the synch checkbox i was able to view the ipod touch picture without it being greyed out. after all that i was able toupdate to IOS 5 successfully except my videos and podcast, and pdfs  did not come over. This confuses me since i had dragged them over to my library to make sure that i had everything in my library and on my device. Not a big problem, since i just dragged them in itunes from my library to my device but sometimes i wonder if i understand the big picture:)

  • Can I create a new itunes account and synch my iPod to it?

    I have an iTunes account, but have only bought music and apps on it for my son's iPod Touch.
    Now I have my own iPod Touch and we want to have separate accounts. I already synched my new iPod to my own account - the one where all his music is.
    What can I do at this point to let my son have his own account with all the music/apps he has purchased?
    Can I create a new account and synch my iPod to that? Can I change the email address on the first account to my son's email?

    Yes but you will need to authorize your computer for purchases on the old iTunes account.

  • Is it possible to synch multiple iPods to one iTunes library?

    Hi --
    I had an old Windows XP machine sitting around with a pro sound card, so I put a 1 TB SATA drive in it and use it as my iTunes machine in my living room. The plan is to put ALL of my 1400+ CD collection into iTunes as full-fidelity WAV files (yes, I can hear a difference, and no, you can't convince me to do otherwise - there are a lot of advantages of using WAV files if you've got the space). Doing this, of course my entire record collection will not come close to fitting on one 160 GB iPod, but in reality I don't need to carry the whole thing around at one time anyway -- BUT -- I do figure I will probably need two iPods to carry around everything I need (I mostly play music in my car and on my boat; don't really use headphones much), AND I can probably separate things reasonably by genre: Rock on one, Blues & Jazz on the other. So my question is this: Is it possible to synch two iPods to the same iTunes library? Are there any problems with this?
    Another question for anyone from Apple: Any plans to offer at least 8X oversampling on an iPod? Even when using WAV files, connected to my control room monitors an iPod still doesn't sound as good as playing CDs on a decent quality DVD player.
    Thanks!

    If you want differnt selections of tracks on each iPod, simply create a playlist for each user and on the Music tab use the options to sync music to selected playlists. I manage our four iPods this way. Rather than use manual playlists I have used the grouping field to record which iPod each track belongs on, e.g. Alice/Bob/Charlie and create smart playlists to be synced to the ipod, e.g. *Grouping contains Alice*. An advantage of using this approach is that the grouping information is stored in the file's tag rather than the iTunes library which makes it a simple matter to recreate the playlists if you ever have to rebuild your iTunes library from scratch. (Since .wav files don't have tags this won't help the original poster)

  • How can I synch my ipod to a new computer without losing all my content, purchased and my old copied albums? My PC and backup died in the same week and now I am told I could lose all my content if I synch?

    I have new purchases on my new laptop but too paranoid to synch the ipod incase I lose the thousands of tunes I copied over from my old collections.

  • HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error  "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

    How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
    A couple of other items:
    1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
    2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
    I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

    The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device.  Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
    Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click  File>Transfer Purchases

  • ITunes and synching multiple iPods with same information

    Is there a way to synch multiple iPod touches, iphones etc. with exactly the same music, movies, apps?  The music can be done with a playlist but how do I set up my content once, save that setup and use it for multiple devices?  I am thinking some named setup that is stored when synching.

  • When my hard drive died I lost my itunes library and now I'm being told that I can't synch my ipod with new songs unless I delete all existing because I can only have one library at a time

    Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
    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.

  • Itunes 10.5.3.3 error (-42404) now lost synch with ipod, previous ver OK.

    Updated Itunes to 10.5.3.3 and reveived error (-42404) now lost synch with ipod, previous ver OK.  Reinstalling with repair after downloading the Itunes.exe file did not work.

    Error (-42404) SOLUTION - for Vista
    Uninstall everything Apple as per Apple Forum "http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 for Vista". Be the administrator to ensure you have acces to folders and files which you may need to check.  This is the solution that worked for Vista, but I read the solution for Win 7 is almost identical.

  • ITunes No Longer Synching With iPods, Not Connecting with iTunes Store

    iPods: both iPod touch, 2nd Generation, 8GB
    iTunes: (Most Recent Version)
    Issue:
    For a while, the iPods of myself and a family member have not been able to synch our iPods with iTunes anymore: when plugged in, it only appears to charge, does not show up in "Devices", does not do anything. I've run Diagnostics several times, tried redownloading iTunes, & checked settings, etc.
    Also, whenever I try to go into iTunes Store, it says that it "Cannot connect to iTunes Store", even if connection to the internet is fine.
    These problems started occurring simultaneously, as well as out of no where. As I recall, I had no problem synching & going into iTunes Store the day before.

    Ask your other family members if they did. Something has to have changed.
    I am betting it's something on the PC, since two ipods going bad at the same time would be highly unlikely.
    If you have auto updates turned on for Windows & security software, it might not even be obvious they occurred.
    You can try restarting your modems/routers/and PC, in that order.

  • HT4235 HELP! I am trying to synch my ipod classic after a few years of non use of itunes. I cannot do so. Diagnostic tests, specifically Device Synch Tests report that "no ipod found".  What have I got to do please?

    HELP!!!!  I am attempting to synch my ipod Classic but have not used itunes for a few years. My ipod refuses to synch & its driving me crazy as I know nothing about computers either. I have run the diagnostics, specifically the Device Synch Tests which report that "no ipod found" although it is showing up clearly in itunes itself.  So its recognized and showing me my libraries but is unrecognised when it comes to synching.  I gave tried a few tips from previous similar queries (unchecking various boxes) and nothing is working. I am using Windows 7 64. Can anybody assist please??

    You could try the DFU restore method in Corrupt iPod classic.
    Or visit http://www.apple.com/uk/support/contact/ to explore your support options. Is the device still in warranty?

  • My Iphone and Ipad wouldn't appear in itunes when i connect them to my mac. I have already upgraded my itunes to the latest version. I have no problem synching my ipod though. Could it be because I am using an older mac? (Mac OS X version 10.4.11)?

    Neither my iphone nor my ipad would appear in itunes when i connect them to my mac. I have already upgraded my itunes to the latest version. I have no problem synching my ipod to itunes using the same mac though. Could it be because I am using an older mac? (Mac OS X version 10.4.11)?

    You need to be using a Mac OS X version at least as new as the one given in the device's original system requirements.

  • TS1368 don't have PC right now - is there any other way to synch my iPod with iTunes?

    This is likely a dumb question but I need to ask...
    I am in between PC's, meaning I don't currently have a home computer (actually looking to purchase a MacBook but not for another 1-2 months).  I want to synch my iPod with the music we've been purchasing via my iPad. 
    I am figuring it is possible to go to a friend's house and use their computer to access my iTunes account and synch...is there any other way?  Just asking, just in case...
    Thanks so much!

    The only way to clear off the passcode is to restore the device.  You could always try the restore process on another computer that has iTunes just to get the iPod working again, then you could plug it back into your comptuer to sync all of his content back on the iPod.
