Getting aroung sync - help please
I have 2 new nanos, one is mine the other is my sister's.
At first, I could click and drag songs from my library to the ipods. This was great because I could select certain songs I wanted. Well I decided to "sync" my ipod and I hate it! Now whenever I plug in my ipod, all the songs are grey and I can't select them or anything. And I don't want certain songs and it wont let me get around it! Can someone help?
I haven't sync'd my sister's yet and it still lets me drag and copy so I won't be doing it to hers.
Thanks
Create a new playlist.
Select the iPod in iTunes.
Select the Music tab.
Tick Sync music and Sync selected playlists, then select the playlist(s) you want to sync.
Now just add or delete songs from this playlist and plug in the iPod to update it.
If you really want to manually manage the music on the iPod, select the iPod and on the Summary tab, select Manually manage music.
To me, this kind of defeats the purpose of ease of use of iTunes/iPod.

Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -

IPod Nano 6th gen won't sync - help please!
I lost my iTunes and all my music when my laptop died, but managed somehow to get it all back onto my new laptop - none of my music is purchased though iTunes but downloaded separately or from CDs. However when I sync my iPod it doesn't actually change anything or add new songs from my iTunes, and playlists on my iPod do not appear in my iTunes. Help please! I've tried manually managing my music and syncing but that doesn't work either, and when I plugging it into my computer it says on the iPod screen that its syncing but it doesn't show that it is in iTunes.
Depending on how you add content to your iPod, have you seen this article?

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Apps for the iPhone do not run on Windows. You will need the iPhone to run the app.

Yesterday I had to reload windows on my PC. I lost everything. Today my computer is working fine. I have downloaded the latest iTunes, and was ready to sync. When I did, I lost all of the APPS that I had. both purchased and free ones. about 9 pages of Apps. can I undo a sync? or snyc from phone???
Reloading the OS on your computer and then downloading iTunes meant that no information was contained in iTunes on the new computer. Without restoring information from the computer prior to reloading there would be on way to have the information in iTunes prior to syncing. If the information is gone from the iPhone, then it would be difficult to rebuild. The only way to get apps back at this time would be to sign in with your Apple ID, authorize that computer with your iTunes account and then check purchase history. There is an email address that Apple has from the iTunes support page to allow you to email them and describe your problem to see if they can help. Sometimes they will, sometimes not, as it is your responsibility to ensure you have your data backed up.
Good luck.
One other thing would be if you backed up the phone prior to syncing, you could always restore from that backup, however don't let iTunes backup the phone again before doing the restore. You may be able to recover that way.

Sync help please please please

from my creative onto the hard drive as it wouldnt let me do all at once
but when i try to transfer any more music all i get is erase and sync hence
losing any transfer already on the ipod catch22 when i do a diagnostics
check it does not see my ipod but in itunes bryans ipod is there really at
my wits end and am thinking why did i make the move any help would be great
Kind Regards BryanIf you want to delete stuff from your computer's hard drive after syncing it to the iPod, you need to set your iPod to manage the iPod content manually.
However, storing music on your iPod and nowhere else is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this about backing up media.

Syncing help please!!!!!
i have a ipod nano 3rd gen. and synced it to my itunes and just got an itouch, but im am really scared that if i connect the itouch to the same itunes all my songs will be erased.
this happened to me before when my sister bought an ipod classic and synced with the same itunes
in conclusion: i was wondering if i connect the itouch to the computer would anything happen? will i still have the regular songs in my ipod and if so, do i sync both together? thanks!!!!! i really need this helpitunes recognises each iPod as an individual. So if you connect one and then connect the other, you should not have a problem. Even if you do, there's a utility that can help get all your music back, provided u have music on 1 of the iPods.

Syncing help please for iPad 2 and iPod Touch 4g on new Macbook Air
Hello,
My name Christine Bergeron and i'm 14 years old i just got the iPad 2. I also just recently got the new MacBook Air 13-inch about a week and a half ago- two weeks. I tried syncing my iPod Touch 4g to my laptop but only 3 apps come up out of like 80 something and when i try to sync them it says it will replace the apps on my laptop (the 3 apps) with those 3. i'm also trying to do the same with my iPad but i don't want to loose everything. iTunes also downloads like half of my music and i don't know how to get the rest. Help!!!!
Thanks,

So wise guy, how do I get to the App Developer!?
Start by doing an internet search for the name of the App or the developer name. You can find the developer name in the App description in the App Store.
No one was condemning you. You were asked a couple of clarifying questions. Snapping back at people doesn't encourage other people ot help you. I'm not sure what the fact that you're 74 has to do with anything. Most of us don't assume that septuagenarians are bad at using technology. In fact, a number of very smart people on these boards, people who help lots of others, fall into that category.
Best of luck. -
I recently had to reinstall iTunes due to an error that prevented the program from opening. Due to my reinstall, all of my data (play count, playlists, etc.) was deleted. I have synced everything back on to my iPhone except my apps. When I check the "Sync Apps" box, iTunes asks me if I want to sync my apps because they will be deleted and replaced with ones from this computer. However, every app on my iPhone is on my computer. When I re-sync, will iTunes wipe my apps' save data? If yes, is there another way to sync my apps, such as restoring to a recently made backup? Thanks for any help in advance!
Backup manually to your computer and restore from that backup after your phone got wiped.
To back up manually, disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. See what's included in a backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way.
