Downloading off the internet

do i need i tunes on the computer i'm using to down load tune or can i just plug in to the usb and download straight to the ipod

You cannot download tracks straight to the iPod. They need to be added to your iTunes library and then synced to your iPod.

  • How do I download off the internet without it going to textedit?

    When I try to download off the internet it opens it with textedit, I know how to change what it opens with but I don't know what to change it to.

    For whichever file type you are trying to download (.SIT, .MOV, .DMG) usually the software that is designed to handle that file type (which needs to be previously installed) will automatically open. It sounds like you are downloading a file type that you have no app installed to actually open.
    As the post before mine replied, we would need to know the file type/extension to better answer your problem.

  • Firefox is preventing some files from downloading off the internet

    Today I had to go to the Dell website to update some drivers for my laptop. Every time I downloaded the driver file from the site to the download manager and then clicked on it to run, I would get a message that there was no file to download. The tech from Dell then had me download Google Chrome and the downloads went smoothly without a hitch. Something in Firefox is preventing the Dell files from downloading. I need instruction on how to correct this problem. I am also wondering why when I go to download files using firefox I do not get an option to run the file instead of save it. II only get the option to save it and then have to click on it from the download manager to run it. I would like to change this as well if possible
    Thanks,
    Maria

  • Can't download off the internet

    I keep trying to download maverick from the app store but it does nothing. is there somewhere else I can try. I would really like it so I can update my other programs. Help.

    If you download Mavericks from any other sources, it is pirated software and you could get some unexpected malware along with it. It's also a violation of the license agreement, so there's no telling what might happen down the road.
    When you say it "does nothing" do you mean it doesn't begin to download, it doesn't change from "purchase"?
    It is a very slow download process and can be misleading. Check to see if there is a loading bar under your AppStore icon on your Dock or in Launchpad.

  • How can I transfer content which I downloaded off the internet from my ipod to my library

    ... I bought C418's minecraft volume alpha for 4 dollars, and backed up my ipod for the sole reason of trying to get it onto my itunes library. APPARENTLY, itunes only backs up purchased content. The album disappeared completely from my ipod! I'm beginning to lose patience with itunes...

    It seems that only third party apps will copy non-purchased music from your iPod to your library.

  • HT1539 i was downloading the movie and was unexpectedly cut off the internet can i still download the rest of the movie from istore with same digital code

    i was recently downloading a movie from the itunes store and was cut off the internet and the movie didnt finishe downloading how do i finish the download for said movie?

    Look under the Store menu in iTunes for the "Check for available downloads" command and run that. You may find the movie there to be downloaded.
    If not, contact the iTunes Store Customer Service department from their Support page (click "Contact Support" and follow the instructions to get to the contact form) and explain the problem to them.
    Regards.

  • Problems downloading a program/file off the internet, end up as Excel files

    When I attempt to download a program or a file off the internet, and save it to disk it appears as an unreadable excel spreadsheet on my desktop. What is going on?

    Hi, Mary.
    1. Can you provide an example, such as a URL / link to a file you have attempted to download?
    2. See my "Resetting Launch Services" FAQ.
    Good luck!

  • Why does photoshop download pictures automatically off the internet that I don't want?

    Where are the pictures coming from? I would more likely believe that your system has a virus than photoshop, but without more information, I could be misinterpreting your post.

  • How do you download applications off the internet?

    Whenever I try to download an application off the intenet it comes up with a pop-up giving me two options, to either save the file or sleect which applciation to open with, when I save the file it saves to my desktop, and when I double click it it opens up with text edit, and is just pages and pages of weird letters and symbols, and I've tried most of my applciations and it never works. How do I download applications off the internet? Please help!

    If the file extension is .EXE, you are downloading Windows compatible software, you need software that is Mac compatible. What software are you attempting to download?

  • Is it possible for a iPod touch to get a virus when downloading free games off the internet? If yes, is there an antivirus program to protect the ipod. and can some of the current apps be saved from the virus damage?

    Is it possible for a iPod touch to get a virus when downloading free games off the internet? If yes, is there an antivirus program to protect the ipod. and can some of the current apps be saved from the virus damage?

    I had one game permanently just stop working, it usually does crash, but that last time it just went bad, I don't know the reason, I tried powering off iPod, relaunching game, but the game never worked again. I think it corrupted its own save file or some of its own data.
    Have you tried another game or app, do those work? If they do, then I guess you know where the problem lies, but if they all stop working, then what about apps, can apps launch?
    Lastly, apps from the app store are checked by Apple, so they are clean.

  • Why can't I save pictures off the Internet after downloading ios 6?

    Ever since I installed ios 6 I have not been able to save pictures off the Internet. When I 'Save photo', it does not save anywhere. Unless it now saves to a new spot I am unaware of? It's not in my 'Photos' section. Anyone have any ideas what this is about? Or if its going to be fixed?
    Thanks!!!

    I'm glad you answered so quick ;)
    I think my problem is harder to solve than that. What you say is what I first tried to do. Since the sync with iTunes was still working, I could still have some pictures in the photos app, and each time I was syncing new pics from my computer ( PC btw ) I had a prompt that said sth like "xx elements have not be synced, check what on iTunes on the PC" but there was nothing on iTunes, and every pic I synced was here in the photos app. I thought there was a directory problem, or ghost pic files issues, so I made a backup of the iPad from iTunes and I disabled the autosync with iTunes. when I got it back, I directly tried to save a pic from safari and mail (even before syncing anything) and it was still not working.
    I really can't figure out why is this occurring, and I haven't tried anything else for now. I think I will show this up in an apple store cause it's kinda hard to explain.
    PS: sorry for the mistakes, I know this is annoying and makes my weird stuff hard to understand, but English is not my first language. (but I will keep on, the English community is still the best!)

  • How do I stop click-thru "'Firefox' is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?"?

    Every single time I launch Firefox 20 under Mac OS X 10.7.5 I get the click-thru warning message "'Firefox' is an application downloaded from the Internet. Are you sure you want to open it?". How do I stop this? There are internet postings and previous postings about solving this using Terminal commands for OS X 10.5.x & 10.6.x, but these commands do NOT work in 10.7.x or 10.8.x. This seems to be a Firefox ONLY issue, and solving it by globally turning off OS X security features as recommended before in a previously closed thread seems like a really BAD solution. Is there a "Firefox only" solution, or will I just have to stop using Firefox?

    I had upgraded to Firefox 20 using the automatic update process, so the last time I'd downloaded a .dmg and manually installed Firefox was a long time ago. I trashed Firefox 20, downloaded a new .dmg and manually transferred to Applications folder and this persistent message ended. I assume if I'd ever launched from the open .dmg the same error message would result, so the fix offered was a solution even though the cause was something different since I only used the automatic update process and never manually handled Firefox .dmg downloads.
