Do I have to use itune to download music?

I have not clue what to do. I just got it last night. I tryed to put songs on from my window meda player but the songs don't appear on the stupid ipod.

Itunes isn't stupid - it just needs a little patience. In iTunes go File/Add file to library - and then browse for the music you want and click OK. Itunes will import it. Once it's in your iTunes library it will put itself onto your iPod when you plug it into your PC. You can change the way your iPod synchronises with your library - just read the help files. It's all there.

    Yes.
    You can use it as a removable disk but you won't be able to copy music to it.

  • I just downloaded IOS6 on my Iphone 4S. I used Itunes and downloaded music and now when I go to my Music they are not there and can only be played from Itunes??

    I just downloaded IOS6 on my 4S and dowloaded music from the new Itunes. However, they dont transfer into my MUSIC and can only be played from my Itunes app? I have restarted my phone and nothing.... help!

    I would not suggest starting anew AppleID as you will have problems with previous purchases.

    How doesn't it work?
    so when i downloaded itunes back and signed in none of my music was there.
    Because it is part of your old AppleID (and your library does not just magically appear).
    Did you make a backup of your HD?
    jhow do i download all my music from my iphone 5 to my laptop
    Authorize your computer for your old AppleID then File > Devices, select your device then Transfer purchases.
    I highly suggest you sort out the issue with your old AppleID and continue to use that. Remove your personal info from the new AppleID and don't use it.

  • I have been using itunes all day and then it wanted me to install a newer version.  When I did it said I can't because it's missing mdsvr80 or something so i downloaded that now it has another error.  How do I get itunes back the way it was or to work?

  • I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    I recently downloaded iMovie on my iPhone 5 and it is telling me to connect to wifi or use itunes to download iMovie well I have done both and it is still not working can someone please help me?

    Hi troy157,
    I'm sorry you are having issues with the iMovie app you purchased for your iPhone5.
    The first thing I would suggest is to log out of your iTunes Account on your iPhone, turn the iPhone off and then on again, and see if app finishes downloading/updating.
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap on your Apple ID account > Tap Sign Out
    If the issues persists, the article below will give you a few more troubleshooting steps:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    Try the following steps to resolve your issue, testing the app after each step.
    1. Update your device software
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    2. Check for app updates
    Ensure that your apps are up to date:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
    When prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the application updates.
    Note: Some applications may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.3. Install another app from the App Store
    4. Restart the application
    If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app:
    Press the Home button to return to the Home screen.
    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.
    5. Restart your device
    Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.6. Reinstall the affected application
    Remove the application from your device and reinstall it.
    Touch and hold any application icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle.
    Tap the "x" in the corner of the application you want to delete.
    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store.
    Search for the application and then download it again.
    Note: If it is a paid app, ensure you are using the iTunes account you purchased the app with originally. If it is not, you will be charged for the app again. For more information regarding downloading previously purchased items, see this article.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
    - Judy

  • Can I use iTunes to download iOS 8.0.2 once and then install on multiple new iPhone 5S we have at work?

    Can I use iTunes to download iOS 8.0.2 once and then install on multiple new iPhone 5S we have at work?
    Our 30 new iPhone 5S came with iOS 7.1.1. 

    The fact that the OS requires 3.8GB of storage is ridiculous to begin with.  Especially when they know there are a ton of 16GB models out there.  Clearly another big brother attempt by Apple to force new iPhone sales which amazes me beyond description.  If I experience pain with a product, I'm not going to buy another one and "hope" the problems go away.  I'm going to buy a competitor's product.  Apparently the lemmings keep following the herd or Apple couldn't continue these strong arm tactics.  I'll stay on iOS 6.x until I'm ready for a new phone then...by another manufacturer.

  • I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried Tools -- Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3  years without difficulty

    I'm having trouble upgrading to ITunes v12.0.1 with
    Win 7. Download progress bar stalls and eventually cancels itself. Have tried
    Tools --> Download Only, but same result. Have been using iTunes for 3+
    years without difficulty; I have lots of ram, hard drive and speed.
    Thanks for your input

    One step listed in the link to "helpful" info, was (when Iooked 30 seconds ago), to search for and download the newest version of iTunes. I'm running iTunes on Win 7 machine and was prompted to update today, 10.22.2014, and did so without a problem. Having said that, however, it looks as though the latest iTunes (12.0.1.26) is finally doing what the last version refused to do, which is to actually fully populate all my playlists on my 6, but there is a hitch: 12.0.1.26 will NOT allow you to show the sidebar unless you click on "playlists," that is, you cannot keep it open all the time.
    And, when plugging the 6 into the computer, the phone icon shows up but clicking on it does nada. What does work, for some strange reason, is clicking on the tiny icon (just under the "Store" menu link at top screen) which looks much like a tiny barrel, someone's idea of external drives, I suppose. The phone then comes up, with the list of stuff on the phone just under it where the sidebar used to be. Sync is now restricted to the lower right of the screen.
    Apparently, you will also need to update your iPhone's software as well; some friends with the 4 and 4s, however, had troubles with them after upgrading. The message from Silicon Valley (I can see Apple from my backyard, ha ha) is apparently, "keep upgrading," folks, get rid of those old phones.

  • I bought an ipd shuffle for my daughter. I have old songs from frostwire that I downloaded on the shuffle.  When I try to play the songs, I get "Please use Itunes to sync music".  What does that mean?

    I bought an ipod shuffle and downloaded old limewire songs onto it. The ipod says "Please use itunes to sync music".  What does that mean? Do I have to download from Itunes only?  thanks,  Jester

    Dear jester,
    Apple created iTunes to try and stop piracy, and if you look at the lime wire site, it says they were shut down for piracy.
    You will have you buy all the music through iTunes or you can download music to iTunes from a CD.
    I hope this help you.

  • Hi,l bought my ipad from uk and got my ID using my turkish credit card. I have a problem using itunes.bottom of the page l have got podcasts,itunes u,downloads. Thats all l have got. Is it coz l have used my turkish cc?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with itunes.l have registered it but l still can not use. When l click on itunes l have got podcasts,itunes u,downloads on the bottom of the page.l can not see any musics or anything. I ve bought it from uk and used my turkish credit card. Is it because turkish credit card? Pls l need help

    The content owners do not allow the iTunes Store to sell across country borders, so you must have a credit card and residence in the country whose iTunes Store you wish to use. Since you live in Turkey and have a Turkish credit card, that's the only iTunes Store you can use, and as has been pointed out, Apple has not been able to obtain the rights to sell music, movies and shows there. That's the nature of the entertainment business at this time, where the rights in each country are held by separate entities and hence require completely separate negotiations.
    Sorry, but there's nothing you can so about this. You'll need to see if there are download stores in Turkey available to you, and if not you'll need to purchase CDs, DVDs, etc.
    Regards.

  • I have been using itunes on my windows based pc for years but since installing the latest itunes update I have been getting the error message A required itunes component is not installed. Please reinstall itunes. (-42404)

    I have been using itunes on my windows 64 bit laptop for years but since downloading the latest itunes 10.7 update whenever I opened itunes the error message 'A required itunes component is not installed. Please reinstall itunes (-42404)'
    Itunes would still load and play music in my library and I could still sync my ipod but when loading a CD itunes would not recognise the album/tracks and I would need to type them manualing after uploading.
    I have just bought the new iphone5 and went to sync the phone with itunes. itunes recognises the iphone when plugged in via the usb port or when wi fi is turned on but itunes will not allow the phone to sync.
    I spent over an hour the other morning speaking to apple customer support and have ensured I have administer right and that UAC is turned off.
    I was taken through msconfigure and adjusted the startup tab but still no joy.
    In the end I was e-mailed instructions on how to uninstall and then reinstall itunes and component parts.
    Now that I've uninstalled itunes when I try reinstalling I get the following messages during the download.
    The 1st message is;
    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application  Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    When I click ok the next message that appears sometime later during the install is;
    Service 'Apple Mobile Device' (Apple Mobile Device) Failed to start Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
    The options I have are to abort, retry or ignore. If I retry the same message comes back and if I  abort or ignore the download continues and I then get the following message:
    'Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run itunes Helper. Please uninstall itunes, then reinstall itunes again. Error 2'
    After attempting to reinstall itunes only some components were installed however itunes would not open.
    It would appear many people have experienced problems with this latest download!

    'The installer has insufficient privileges to modify this file C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support\Web kit.resources\inspector\Images\Spinner Inactive Selected.gif.'
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • HT2688 My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now.

    My daughter has used my computer to log into iTunes and download music but now it won't let me download recently purchased music from my iPad onto my computer. I want to transfer the recently purchased songs onto my iPod so how can I do this now? iTunes now says that I have to wait another 55 days! There must be a way to do this since I have paid for them.

    In iTunes sign out of your daughters Apple ID and sign in with your own.
