Got new MacBook, successfully imported all data, but it wont see my iPod?

I used the step-by-step transfer the MacBook started when I first booted up to transfer evrything from my old G4 powerbook to my super cool new MacBook, was thrilled that everything went smoothly and finished in 8.5 hours! but while the new macbook will charge my ipod, itunes does not recognize it as an ipod...I authorized the macbook to use the music store, and all my music plays, but it will not update the ipod...what am I missing? many thanks!

Hi Olive-oil,
I too recently upgraded and when I tried connecting the iPod had the same issue. I don't know if you're doing this, but I tried using the firewire cable that came with my iPod mini and it wouldn't let me put anything onto the iPod. If you are doing this, just use the USB cable instead, and see if that works.
Hope that helps.

  • I have a new Macbook Pro. All data from prior Mac was migrated to new Mac. If I run Time Machine and "inherit" the old backups will TM take up where I left off, or delete and overwrite the current data?

    I have a new Macbook Pro. All data from prior Mac was migrated to the new Mac. I want to continue Time Machine on the new Mac and retain the history. An option is to "inherit" the old Time Machine. I want to make sure this does not errase the current data, but creates a current backup.

    Please visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.

  • I just upgraded from my 2008 MacBook to a new Macbook Pro. How do I get my time capsule to work on my new MacBook? I did data migration, but the time capsule did not pick it up. Any ideas?

    If you migrated all the info from time machine to your new MBP. The TM will usually ask to connect to the old backups.. sorry I am not sure is this what you want to do.. Personally I think you start a fresh backup.
    BTW Time Capsule does not do anything.. it is a dumb hard disk in a box.. it is TM that does everything.
    Look at B5 and B6 here about connecting to your backup.

    Hello,having a problem with Logic 9 on a Mac Pro.Working on a lenghty song and apparently session got corrupted.Doesnt let me export tracks,program crashes.Already tried start brand new session with the tracks imported into it but still wont export.Suggestions?

    Thanks, Ian. Yeah, that's how I do it now...or with the controls in the left side pane. Still, I would have liked that quick on-the-spot edit capability...especially while sketching.

    Sorry Mark, you are out of luck as it does not do that - it works the same as L8. The way I would achieve that with more accuracy and control would be to route all the tracks you want to fade to a Bus then use volume automation on the bus. To do this you will need to add a standard audio track, then re-assign it using (Control Click on the track header) to the Bus track. You can then automate volume/plugins etc on the Bus track.

    As I downloaded new software upgrade in my iPod nano 7 th gen and also new iTunes upgrade then all data on my iPod got erased and now when I am trying to sync it again then sync button is disabled on the windows screen . Kindly help

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • If I backup my iPad to my new MacBook pro will all the apps be saved?

    If I backup my iPad to my new MacBook pro will all the apps be saved?

    All of your content should be transferred to the new Mac when you sync. However, if you want to be safe, you can select the transfer purchases options, then sync the iPad.
    Read this article about syncing. There is a section in the article that states that all of your purchased content may not transfer over to new Mac when you sync. I have NEVER had that problem when syncing but the article does talk about transferring purchases just in case. Not a bad idea really ... better to be safe than sorry!

  • Why would a JSP output all data but fail to end the request?

    Hi all,
    I have a JSP which outputs some data, includes a servlet in the same application which outputs table rows, and then outputs the end of the page. I'm running iAS 6 SP4 on Solaris with iWS 6.0.
    My problem is that requests complete successfully and output all data but the page continues to "load": it renders in the browser window, says Opening .... in the progress bar, but never finishes. When I stop the request and view the HTML, everything is there, right down to the last tag. So both the JSP and servlet are running to completion, but somewhere the request is not being terminated.
    This is a problem because iAS will not serve any further requests to that specific application until the server is restarted. It will continue to serve pages to other applications on the same server. When shutting down the following errors are put to the log file:
    [30/Jan/2002:09:52:17] info (12980): GXConn::GetNextBuffer() reports: invalid reply type received in GetNextBuffer (conn 0x3c38f48, sock 0, host 0x0, port 0)

    [30/Jan/2002:09:52:17] info (12980): gxrequest.cpp:gxrequest() reports: End req /NASApp/pricing/
    [30/Jan/2002:09:52:17] info (12980): gxrequest.cpp:gxrequest() reports: End req /NASApp/pricing/results.jsp
    I have many other JSPs which include servlets in the same application which work perfectly, and I am unable to reproduce the error on any other pages.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Things are always clearer in the light of morning. Passing false for the inline argument to PDEContainerCreate() is the cause.

  • I got new macbook pro 13" without CD

    i got new macbook pro 13" without CD  i try to find iweb BUT i can't where i can find it ?? or how i can to install it ??

    iWeb and iDVD are no longer supported by Apple nor included on new Macs.  To get a copy of iWeb 3 or iDVD 7 you will need to purchase the boxed version of iLife 11 or iLife 09 from Amazon.com: iLife 11 or eBay.com.

  • HT203167 Hello I've recently just bought a new iPhone and i am wanting to transfer all my music that i habe bought from my old one onto the new one. I've gone onto iTunes and tried to download them all again but it wont let me?

    I've recently just bought a new iPhone and i am wanting to transfer all my music that i habe bought from my old one onto the new one. I've gone onto iTunes and tried to download them all again but it wont let me?

    What happens when you try to redownload them ? What you can re-download (the types of content that you can redownload varies by country) will show under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes, and the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPhone (and similarly for apps in the App Store app). If you still have your old phone then you should be able to copy your iTunes downloads from it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases

  • Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. In lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

    Keywords not transferring with pictures on copy and paste to a new computer. The keywords are in lightroom on old computer but not in lightroom on new computer? Not all pictures, but a lot of the new ones.

    I actually found under  EDIT then Catalog settings / then metadata that the automatic write changes to XMP had been unchecked. Once I check this, it updated and connected all the keywords to the pictures. Now when I copy and paste the keywords show up as I can now detect them in Adobe bridge when before I couldn't see them even though they were in lightroom. . Thanks for your input.
