FIles from iPod to Someone else's Mac in disk mode???????????

Hi there all,
I've got a couple of gigs worth of files, i need to put them on my iPod and transfer them to someone else's Powerbook, There Photoshop files, and mine, so nothing illegal about this! My iPod has got Disk mode selected in iTunes, so if i connect it to the other mac, will i just be able to get the file's of the iPod and drop them on the other Mac's desktop, or will it open iTunes and wipe all my Music, Pics and Movies off my iPod and pair it up with the Mac?
Thanks for any help!

Pretty much. When you cable the iPod to your friend's computer, it should mount on the desktop and allow you to use it as an external hard drive.
will it open iTunes and wipe all my Music, Pics and Movies off my iPod and pair it up with the Mac?
It may open up iTunes, but it certainly won't do anything to your iPod unless you tell it to. You will most likely get a dialog box indicating that your iPodis linked to another iTunes library and it will ask you if you want to replace the contents of your iPod with your friend's library. Make sure you answer NO to this question!

  • How do I replace someone else's Mac ID with my own? Bought iPhone second hand. Previous owner re-set the phone but his ICloud account stayed on now my phone. He uses his macID on his new iPhone now?? Any ideas, as this issue is blocking my access to iTune

    How do I replace someone else's Mac ID with my own?
    Bought iPhone second hand on TradeMe.
    Previous owner re-set the phone but his ICloud account stayed on now my phone. He uses his AppleID on his new iPhone now and, understandably, does not want to give me his password. Any ideas?? Please.
    This issue is blocking my access to iTunes and any other file from my home computer. It keeps on telling me that I have to autorise my computer to pass on files, yet, it seems, for all this to happen, I need to get logged in through the phone's Apple ID. This of course is different to my one on my computer - and I have no password for it.
    This phone is not stolen!! I payed still a fair bit for it. Am still in contact with the previous owner. He doesn't know how to fix the problem either.
    Would appreciate any suggestion ????
    Thanks

    Settings>general>resets>erase all content and settings.
    That will put it back to its out of the box state. Set it up with your own apple Id.

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • HT1379 Summary: how to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards.

    How to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards?
    Insert the SD card.
    System opens iPhoto with SD contents.
    Want to transfer files from SD card to system drive.  iPhoto closes
    SD card directory removed from the Finder window and is not available again. 
    I don't want to have to reboot the system every time I want to perform this option.
    What's wrong here. 
    The support columns show this isn't an isolated incident with all sorts of solutions possible.
    This is a simple task - there should be a simple method for the system to recognize SD cards.
    What's the answer?
    I've reviewed a recommendation to reset the SMC.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18500187#18500187
    and
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    and another thread that says, basically, you must buy extra hardware to perform this simple task,

    another one that has the same problem with OS Mountian Lion,
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/21919740#21919740
    another one with the problem that says SD cards can't be read by Apple unless the card is formatted specifically for Apple, ie. that Apple is not compatible with other cards, but the problem maybe something else that requires Apple service - (bad SD card reader?).
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18711818#18711818
    there are probably more discussions, but I dont' want to spend my entire sunny in Seattle day working this.
    thanks for the help!

    When I plug in an SD card, the finder window shows it under the DEVICES section.  At this point, I can drag the contents to the hard drive.  However, when I screw up and click the character on the right side of the name - it apparently closes the SD card and I can't find any command to reload or re-recognize the card.  I have to remove and reinsert the card and then sometimes it recognizes the card.  Other times I reboot and it will recognize it.
    What does that character on the right side of the SD card name do?  Is it an eject function - with no way to subsequently reread the drive?
    It ejects or unmounts the card. When the SD card mounts click on it once to highlight it and then drag the files shown within it to the new folder.

  • HT1386 I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do.  It won't work.

    I have an app called ipieta which was originally downloaded onto an ipod. I gave the ipod to someone else, but now that I've had the iphone I can not get the audio even though it is downloaded into itunes music like it said to do.  It won't work.  I've tried more than several times to get help but nothing helps. Do I need to deauthorize the ipod or perhaps erase all the downloaded ipieta stuff and start over?
    Thanks for any suggestions

    Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
    Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

  • How do I extract an audio file from a PDF in Pro? (Mac)

    How do I extract an audio file from a PDF in Pro? (Mac) . Properties say it's a .m4a file.
    Thanks

    Hi Tim,
    That isn't a supported feature. If the PDF is unsecured and you have the legal rights to extract the audio, it would be possible to locate and decompress the raw file data from the PDF file using third-party tools to read the low-level file structure (a hex editor or Cos editor) - but Acrobat can't help you.

    Useing a PC

    I Can move Jpegs into ps the only issue is with Raw files
    I did get error1 message but as do not know what that means its no help
    any suggestions?

    Sorry for the late reply. My email firewall has become a little over zealous & sent a lot of my emails straight to my junk email folder, so I have only just now discovered your reply in my junk mail folder.
    The only "don't open files exceeding xxx megabytes" instruction I can find in my Prefs, is in the Bridge Prefs for Thumbnails, & mine is set at 1000mb. The biggest files I handle are bigger than 200mb so I should be able to open a few, not just one.
    However, this doesn't explain why I can open a psd format file of 180mb, close it, but then can't open a RAW format file of only 26mb immediately after.
    I can open the RAW file only if I restart my computer - very annoying!
    However, thanks for the advice about the video card & memory.
    So, I'm still stuck as to what the issue is.
