Does ipod come pre-loaded with songs?

I just got a new ipod today, and see that if I go through the music menu, that there appears to be a bunch of songs there. Were these songs pre-loaded that we get? I did not put any music on my ipod yet, so it isn't anything I put it.
Some of the groups are: Canyon, Chuck Prophet....

"Everytime I synch my ipod, it loads the same 17 songs that are from the itunes homepage. It appears Apple puts in the playlist automatically for free?"
If that were the case it would happen to everyone wouldn't it and I've never heard of this before? It doesn't load anything else? Are these songs in your iTunes?
I just don't see how the iPod can load songs from your iTunes library if they are not stored there.
Restore it as previously suggested.

My Samsung tv came pre-loaded with V-Tunes. I prefer in Tune-In Radio. How can I get it on there?

My samsung tv came pre-loaded with V-Tunes. I prefer Tune-IN Radio which was pre-installed on my other samsung tv which was recently replaced with larger unit without realizing that Tune-In wasn't installed on this new one..... How do I get it installed. It ia not appearing in the Samsung Apps on my screen. Frustrated!!!!!

Go to the page linked below, and there's an option to "check your device". If you click this, you can enter the make and model etc. of your new TV and find out for certain if it is compatible or not.

Can I install Snow Leopard on the latest Macbook Pros? (the ones pre-loaded with Lion)

The problem and solution is pretty simple, I just want to know if anyone has tried this before. I have a brand new Macbook Pro that I bought more or less for the sole purpose of having a more powerful machine to run AVID Media Composer on. AVID is only compatible up to OS version 10.6.7 at the moment, and the machine I got was pre-loaded with Lion, 10.7....So I look at the support documentation Apple provides, and notice that in the nifty little chart they have, the latest line of Macbook Pros out there (early 2011) originally had version 10.6.6, so I'm assuming that's the previous version I can't downgrade past.
To revert back to Snow Leopard, however, I need to install it from the DVD which has version 10.6.3 on it, and then upgrade to any version between Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Lion 10.7. In theory this could work, the only problem being that for a brief time between installing Snow Leopard and updating to the version of it that I need, the computer will have version 10.6.3 on it.
Now I'm pretty sure if the only thing I do on the computer is immediately update to a safe-to-use version, there will be no problems. However, if the machine's hardware is so terribly non-backwards compatible with the Snow Leopard OS, I may do all this backing up and reverting and not even be able to start the computer once I get the old install on it. Before I just go ahead and try this for myself, I was wondering if anyone else has, and more importantly, have you had any success?

Hi r,
EDIT: disregard my post. Waiting for that disc is a far better option.
I hope w won't mind if I add a thought here:

Now I don't mind if some drivers are messed up and resolution is all funky when I install 10.6.3 on it, I just need to know if it'll be functional to the point where I can run the 10.6.6 update dmg. Once I update to 10.6.6 everything should work fine.
Or could I install 10.6.3, have the 10.6.6 update burned to a disc, and boot straight from that? This is my first Mac so I'm not sure what little tricks work or not.
Your first idea may work; the only way to know for sure is to try it. If you do, make sure you download and run the Combo update for 10.6.7 or 10.6.8. There can be different versions of a point update, those which are available for download, and those which ship on Macs, so you want to install one beyond that which shipped with some of the new MBPs.
If the MBP won't boot to 10.6.3, something else to try is installing it to an external HD, then installing the 10.6.7 update on it, clone it to the MPB's internal HD, and run the 10.6.7 or 10.6.8 Combo update on it.

iPod touch is Wi-Fi only, yes. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by games from home Mac, but you can purchase game apps in iTunes and sync them to your iPod.

Does photoshop come pre-installed for free?

does it come pre-installed for free on the iMacs? Because i want to get one and i am wondering if it is on there for free?

Photoshop is not a free or OEM product on any system, any platform that I know of.
As the previous post says, you can download a trial version, but the full product, depending on level, on any platform (Windows or Mac) costs about $650, or $1000 for the extended version....

Pre-loading iTunes song previews: how?

I recall a few years ago iTunes had an option (via Preferences>Store tab) that allowed you to pre-load song previews rather than streaming them instantly, which was great for those unfortunate ones still on dial-up, etc. This option hasn't been in successive iterations of iTunes since.
I'm wondering if there is any way to regain this ability via Terminal command, Applescript or something. Can anyone help me out here? I just want a smoother iTunes Music Store experience when I've used up my monthly download quota and have my speed dropped down from ADSL2+ speed to 64kbps. A response would be most greatly appreciated.

A forumer on macrumors.com suggested I type in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.iTunes load-complete-preview-before-playing 1
I input the command in Terminal, opened iTunes, went into the music store, clicked on a random song and it did prebuffer the stream initially. Unfortunately after the first second it reverted back to its old behaviour ie. playing music for 5 seconds, rebuffering, play for another 5 seconds, rebuffer, etc.

X1 Carbon Retrieve serial for Win7 pre-loaded with no serial sticker [Win8 branded]

So I just recently had the misfortune of being asked to wipe a X1 Carbon of it's pre-loaded Win7, replacing it with a clean Win7 installation. This has caused a licensing issue as there appears to be no Win7 serial-sticker on the laptop itself. Therefore the newly installed Windows 7 operative system won't activate.
Looking through online manuals I've learned that these X1 Carbon machines are Win8-branded, meaning if I wish to kep Win7 I'd have to make a recovery disk myself prior to formatting it. This was not done, to my misfortune.
My question is then: Is my only solution to order a recovery disk from lenovorecovery dot com, or is there an alternative solution? We are not running Win8, and I would prefer to avoid using our own licenses for a machine that was already purchased with W7 and should have it's own license.
Just curious if there's a fix.
Many thanks for your time!
//Ken
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I was unable to edit my previous post.
Dear zoltanthegypsy,
Your solution worked prefectly. I do not understand how this works, but did and I am so grateful for your time and help to solve my activation issue on the X1 Carbon that came with pre-loaded Win7; branded for Win8 and only Win8 disks.
I performed a clean install of Win7 and simply activated it using another used license. Followed your steps and the machine is now activated. Brilliant!
Kind regards,
Ken

Ipod won't sync with songs on Itunes

I just recently bought a laptop and it has Windows Vista 64 bit (Home Premium). I was able to sync the Ipod (40GB 4th Gen) with the laptop as far as transferring purchases. But I can't get the Ipod to sync as far as taking songs from Itunes and putting it onto the Ipod. I tried manual syncing but that's not working either. Now when I try to go back to having Itunes and Ipod automatically syncing and hit apply it still goes back to manual syncing. Please help.

Thank-you. I figured it out myself. I realized that since it's set to have the ipod manually synced that when I have songs I want to go from Itunes onto the ipod I have to click and drag the song over the top of where it says device ipod on the left hand side.

Does "Automatically fill free space with songs" refill the iPhone regularly

I have a bit of music I'd like to have it shuffle, and having it essentially use the autofill command every time I sync my iPhone would be a bonus.
So when you choose "Automatically fill free space with songs" in Sync Music, does it refill the iPhone's music regularly, or do you need to uncheck, sync, and check again in order to keep the autofilled music from stagnating on the phone?

Also, how does it decide what to add to the iPhone?

HELP! iPod won't load new songs on my iTunes

My iPod has been having bizarre issues. It has been really screwed up since around August 13th, and it seems to work all right right now when I am merely playing it except that it sometimes skips over random songs. However, whenever I plug it into my computer, iTunes says that my iPod is being updated, but when it is finished and I unplug my iPod, there are no new songs. My ipod has 1090ish songs on it, and my iTunes has about 1157. I am really confused. Also, when I plug in my iPod to be updated, a tiny alert message comes up on my screen that says, "iTunes.exe - corrupt file
the file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes`Temp File is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility."
Anyone know what that means and/or what I can do? Do I have to send my iPod in to get fixed?
20GB 4th generation iPod Windows XP

I have the same error message
"iTunes.exe - corrupt file
the file or directory \iPod_Control\iTunes`Temp File is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the Chkdsk utility."
itunes deleted all my songs even though i have it set to manual and now I can't upload any songs to my ipod. furthermore it says i have 21.6 GB available out of the 27.8 GB capacity, yet i have no songs or movies or anything on it. If you figure out how to fix this problem please let me know.

Ipod 60g doesnt load with all my music

MY NEW IPOD 60 G DOESNT LOAD WITH MY I TUNES MUSIC,IS THE SAME THAT I USED IN MY OLDEST IPOD?

Por favor Yulian. No mecanografíe adentro las mayúsculas. En el Internet, se considera griterío o enojado.
El iPod tiene un problema al exhibir canciones de un artista con solamente 1 álbum.
Si un artista tiene canciones y solamente 1 álbum y otras canciones sin álbum, las canciones sin nombre del álbum no serán exhibidas.
El arreglo es dar a todas las canciones un nombre del álbum.
O puesto por lo menos dos diversos álbumes debajo del artista. Si usted hace esto, después las canciones sin nombre del álbum demostrarán para arriba.
