Got new nano and new laptop - how to get songs on both?
My old nano does not work, purchased a new Nano 16 gb. Also have new laptop and would like to get songs onto new laptop and new nano. What should I do first? New laptop is Windows 7, old is Windows XP. I do have an external hard drive that I can use to back up songs from old computer.
The external is perfect. You will want to locate your music on the Win XP hard drive and move it to the external, then bring the external to the new Win 7 PC and drag the music in to a folder there.
If you have iTunes already installed then you will need to drag the music in to iTunes once you've moved it to the PC.
If iTunes is not installed you're good, just install iTunes and it will pick up the music automatically.
Then connect iPod and sync ^^v

lilly schilly (in desperation)You'll need to be connected to a Wi-Fi source in order for the Photos to download to your iPod Touch.
For more help and information, see the Photos chapter of your iPod's User Guide.

I have an iPad w iTunes, my hubby just got a new nano and we would like to sync music from my iPad (and not lose my songs in the process). I do not have iTunes on a pc so I don't know how to share music.
There is no way to share your music on the iPad to his Nano without a computer - that I can think of anyway. No third party application will work unless both devices have WiFi and many of them require a computer as well.
I would suggest downloading iTunes on your PC, transfer your music to the iTunes library and then sync the Nano.
Maybe I am missing something but I don't think this is possible as you are currently set up. -
I just got a new nano and downloaded the most up to date itunes then I plugged it into my computer and it does not turn on at all, no charge image and my computer doesn't even recognize that there is a connection. How do I fix this?
By calling iPod tech support while you are under warranty. You also have 14 days to return it w/no questions asked for a replacement or your $$$ back.

I'm trying to find out information on how to go about helping my sister to register her new nano and load on CD's and such. I have a nano and already know how to do this but she is from CA and we want to load it here on my computer. She will be going home in 2 weeks and wants to use it in the car for the ride home.We don't listen to the same kind of music so I don't want to use my library but do one of her own for her. Also she will want to add this library on to her computer at home. I'm 60 and my sister is 70 I have enough knowledge to do some things on the computer but am not real computer smart. My sister is just learning about everything but has no idea what to do with that knowledge. Can anyone give me and idea on how to do this that I can get a grasp of what needs to be done to do this? My nephew says it's easy but he's in Az and I'm here. He also helps people with computers so he is more knowledgeable than I am. Would appreciate any help on this. thx

I have an iPod touch that is synced with my library. I just got a new Nano and I want to sync that with the same library but I can't figure out to do it with iTunes 11
I watched the new itunes tutorial, and if you double click on the blank part of the bar that says music, videos, apps, etc, a button will show with your ipod's name.

I just bought a newer Nano and I need to upgrade my itunes for a laptop (with Windows) that no longer has the capability to go online. Is there a way to do this?
Hi John,
Thanks for your response, but if you read my first mail, it's the original serial number that I don't have. I bought the original LR as download and have misplaced the serial number. Is there any way to find it???

Got a new nano, and it synced all music of my daughters music. can i get them off my nano
I received a new nano and when I plugged it in, all of my daughter's music synced. Can I get rid of all that music from my nano?
Are you two using the same iTunes library?
How you delete content from your iPod depends on how it is set up to receive content from your iTunes library whether that be via automatic syncing or manual management.
For automatic syncing, you must reconfigure your settings so that the album/tracks/content you wish to remove is no longer configured to sync to your iPod. For example, if the Sync only checked songs and videos option is enabled from under the iPod's Summary tab, make sure all the tracks for this album do NOT have a tick mark next to them in your iPod. Then resync your iPod with iTunes.
If that isn't the case, you'll want to look at the iPod's Music configuration tab. You can access this tab by selecting your iPod under Devices. This should bring you to theSummary tab over to the right. Look for the Music tab along the top and select it. Here you can configure how and what music syncs to your device. If you make any changes to this tab, be sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to sync the updated changes to your device.
Otherwise, if you manually manage your iPod's contents, you must manually remove content from it. You can do this by plugging your iPod in and clicking the small black triangle next to your iPod from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will open up a submenu of content that is indented underneath the name of your device, so go ahead and click on Music (or whatever content you are wanting to remove). Locate the track or tracks/content you wish to delete. Highlight them and hit the Delete key or choose Edit -> Delete.
Otherwise, if you are using different iTunes library, simple connect it to your own iTunes library and restore it to factory settings. To do this, select your iPod under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and click the Restore button that appears to the right under the iPod's Summary tab.

New Ipod and new computer-how to transfer
I just got the new ipod video and had the 20gb. I now have a new computer and new ipod. How do I transfer my songs to my new ipod and computer?
any help would be appreciated.
DIf you transfer your library from the PC to the Mac, and then plug in your new ipod to the new Mac, a question will pop up asking you whether you want this computer's library to be transferred to the iPod. Click Yes, and it will start synching with whatever is in the library.
You can also use some programs, like "Senuti" (for mac, freeware) to rip off the contents FROM your iPod TO your new Mac. I personally like Senuti since it has an iTunes-like interface except in reverse. -
my mac is running 10.5.8, I bought a new Nano, itunes is prompting me to get the current itunes, but my mac will not take it, states I need 10.6.8. How do I get that? When I run a software update, system says there is none. Help
Click here, check that your computer meets the requirements, buy and install the DVD, and then run Software Update.

New nano and the broken shuffle that won't go away in iTunes
Situation: Had a 512 Shuffle for less than a year before it fizzled out. Bought a new 1G nano just this week. Love it but some problems with iTunes. (Running Windows XP)
The ONLY time that iTunes will recognize the new nano and let me update it is if it is plugged in through a restart of Windows. Everything works great then. I can update it to my heart's content.
Any OTHER time when I plug in the nano iTunes "sees" it as the old shuffle, which is of course dead.
I've tried multiple uninstall/reinstall (the Windows way, right?) of both iTunes and the iPod software. But there is something lingering in there that makes iTunes keep going back to the broken shuffle's playlist.
Any suggestions?
Dell Windows XP Pros'okay!
... this is a long shot. but what i'm wondering is if you've got a very weird version of this particular issue:
Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
(it would be a "doubled" version of this problem. Windows starts misidentifying the shuffle as the other drive, and an ipod_control folder makes its way onto the other drive. then when you plug in the nano, you get the confusion again, Windows sees the ipod_control folder on the other drive, and ends up thinking that that's the old shuffle ... that's the long-shot theory, at least ...)

I got a new iPhone and i am trying to buy songs but when I go to buy a song on iTunes it says I have to answer my security questions and I don't remember the answers. I pressed where it says for them to email you your answers but I haven't gotten an email. Is there another way to change or get the answers for the security questions?
If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Ive just got a new iPhone4 and I am trying to get the App's ie games from my iPhone3 onto the 4 and retain the same levels that I have reached on the 3,
The Apps have gone onto the 4 but its making me re-start everything from level 1?
Ive paid $$ for the games and then more $$ within the games via iTunes for in game purchases and desperatly want the games on the 4 with the levels that I have reached on the 3!
Can anyone help!! Please!!!! My Smurfs and Animals are starving HahahahaMate, it's good to hear that you have gotten the iPhone 4 but sorry to burst your bubbles. Not all games can have the "saved" data ported over.
Normally when you save a game in iPhone, the memory used is in the flash memory of the device. Those that can be ported over, reason is due to the data being saved over the air and when you logged in on a new device, it recognises you via the userID.
Maybe you can try to backup your iPhone 3, and restore the file onto your iPhone 4. Not too sure if that would brick your phone though.
