Had to Remove Previous Purchased Games to Sync New Purchased Game on iPod

Note: Unless otherwiwse noted, I'm using "sync" to mean "show up on the iPod automatically or manually" as opposed to Apple's meaning of "sync" which is to "show up on the iPod automatically".
I purchased Sudoku from the iTS, but it wouldn't sync to the iPod. This was the only way I could get Sudoku to sync:
1. iTunes, iPod, Games
2. Selected: Sync Games, Selected Games, Sudoku
When I hit "Apply", I wasn't surprised to see that Sudoku was the only purchased game on the iPod. Is there any way to get the games to show up on the iPod without syncing? (here I'm using Apple's meaning of "sync"). Is there any way to get the games I already purchased without buying them again? I tried Check For Purchases but all I'm getting are songs.

Not really sure what you mean.
When you purchase a game, it shows up under Games in iTunes.
If you want to put it on your iPod, do as you have done.
1. iTunes, iPod, Games
2. Selected: Sync Games, pick All or selected games and pick the ones you want.
Is there any way to get the games to show up on the iPod without syncing?
No.
Is there any way to get the games I already purchased without buying them again?[>
No. Why? Did you delete them?
I tried Check For Purchases but all I'm getting are songs.
Check for purchases shows songs you have purchased but are not downloaded yet.

  • Since I installed the latest version of iTunes I cannot sync new downloads to my ipod. Before I installed this version I had two windows when I attached my ipod to my desktop but now there is only one. HELP

    Since I installed the latest version of iTunes I have been unable to sync new downloads to my ipod. Prior to this installation I would get 2 windows when I attached my ipod but now there is only one. The software does not recognise the device (I tried running the doagnostic) but I can see it on my desktop. Anyone know what I can do?

  • Itunes will no longer sync new music to my ipod

    I've had my ipod for a year and have been able to use it fine. Now, however, the ability to sync new music to my ipod has been removed. I've recently bought a new computer and successfully transferred everything over and been able to sync my ipod with the new computer and it has been working fine. THen I decided to buy some new music from the itunes store. At first I bought a few songs and placed them in a pre-existing playlist and that worked fine. Then I decided to download the next part of an audio book I bought a while ago off audible so I could listen to the next part and while I could download it it wouldn't add to itunes the way I've done it for the last 80 or so audiobooks I've downloaded from audible (go to file, select add file to library, find file, double click and then sync)
    There was no error message, just when I synced it wasn't there. So I bought an album from the itunes store. Again, something I've done before. I can buy the album, I can download it, I can even make a playlist for the album and listen to it on my computer. When I sync I get no error message but nothing I try can get that album from my computer onto my ipod.
    The only way I can listen to anything new (including the stuff I have already paid for) is to do so on my computer, which I don't want to do as I can't carry my computer around public transport with me. Besides, this is why I bought an ipod!
    I'm not trying to do aything new, just what I've done before.
    Thank you in advance!

  • Warning!  Songs were removed from iTunes Library after installing new iTunes and iPad/iPod Sync

    I purchased the iPad 2 yesterday, updated my itunes software, and itunes messages indicated that it would not allow certain songs to be included in my library any longer since these were not purchased from iTunes.  Many of the songs were from CDs that I stored on this library for several years.  Only after I upgraded iTunes with this new iPad was my music removed.  Luckily I still have my music on my iPod, but my iTunes library on my laptop contains only the music I have purchased from iTunes with the last 18 months.  Weirdly, except for one particular song that iTunes said was not purchased from them, but it was part of an entire album purchase from iTunes.  Also, all of the movies I purchased from iTunes were also removed. I am not able to sync any movies onto my iPad. 
    I restored the iPad a second time, reinstalled the itunes and have the same result.  All of my older archived music is gone from the iTunes library. 
    Warning, if you want your music, back it up before installing the latest iTunes particularly if you have the new iPad 2.

    Hmm, it is only very recently (about 6 months ago I think) that the policy on Music changed. Prior to that you would be routinely reminded to back up all purchases (immediately after the successfully completed download), unless of course you ticked an option not to be reminded again. The change in policy (in our favour) would have been noted in the small print that neither you or I read when upgrading iTunes, though we say that we have.
    Again I'm still not certain if audiobooks are excluded from both "Music" and "Books". One would hope that they belonged to one category or the other in respect of redownloading. In the past, in the event of an absolute disaster, fatal hard-drive crash, fire etc. some users have been able to prevail upon the charity of the iTunes store staff who would occasionaly grant a second, but never a third, download of past purchases.
    The restictions on different types of media are ultimately imposed by the rights holders, not Apple. It is in Apple's interests to offer the same terms as their competitors, so my guess is that nobody currently offers unlimited repeat downloads of movies. Certainly the unique codes you get on some DVDs/Blu-Rays are one-time only.
    Backup all (or at least the non-replaceable parts) of your library with this User Tip.

  • Why does the pen tool remove previous line when I add new anchor points??

    Why does the pen tool remove previous lines??
    Video here:  http://youtu.be/8AmPUkD88h0 
    It removes the hairline on the face, when I add more anchor points. Why? And how do I correct it?

  • Each time master data full load removes previous data and load with new ?

    We load company code (0COMP_CODE) master data (full load).
    1st day, we check company code master data, the record count is 150, 2nd day, the record count is 90.  It sounds like the master data full load each time would clean the previous data and load with new data, am I right?  If what I guess is right, then what setup is controlling this?
    Thanks

    I dont think it does cleanup.
    MD records in the new load simply overwrite the records already present in the master data.
    I mean if same record comes again its overwritten.If new record it gets added.
    I wouldnt expect number of records to reduce drastically from 150 to 90.
    Maybe before MD activation records could be more(as there will be both M(modified) and A(active) records).
    cheers,

  • Transfering previously purchased songs from iPod to a new computer

    Please help... my daughter just purchased a used iPod with 4000+ songs on it. I loaded iTunes okay but then keep getting a message that the iPod needs to be restored/it's unable to be read. Apparently this will erase all songs. Since the songs are not already on our computer I don't want to erase them. Is there a way to transfer the songs to our computer (Windows XP) before restoring the iPod? Is there a better way to do any of this? I've tried to read all of the other posting but can't figure it out. Thanks!

  • I cannot get my library to sync new cds to my ipod

    I got a refurbished Ipod touch and my library did not sync to the ipod.  This includes songs I have previously purchased from I tunes and cds I have imported to my library.

    Short term I'll have to manually syn the extra CDs I've installed, which I'll have a go at over the weekend.
    No, you don't have to "manually sync". (You can't, you either *manually manage* or sync, not both.)
    Turn on the *Sync checked songs and videos.* When you connect the iPod, anything in your library with a tick next to it will Sync to the iPod. That's what the Sync does, synchronise everything in the library with the iPod.

  • Somehow my itunes started a new library and I lost my old library. Itunes will not allow me to sync new music to my ipod without deleting stored music from ipod. How can I start using this new library and sync the new music without losing existing music.

    Somehow my Itunes started a new music library and I lost the old library.  Itunes will not allow me to sync new music from my computer to my Ipod because it is now in a different library. Itunes wants to delete all my Ipod music before sync any new music. How do I work around this. I think this happened during Itunes Upates.

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Let Me Re-Authorize at Sync Before Removing My Purchases From My iPod!

    Since I updated drivers for my mainboard/audio and my monitor recently, my computer crashes about once a day. When I reboot, if I try to sync, iTunes just automatically deletes all of my purchases and lets me know that it's done so. Why not provide me with the option to re-authorize at that point? After it deletes all these purchases, I just have to double click on one of them and click okay and my computer is re-authorized. The way it is now, because the computer crashed due to something beyond my control, now I have to re-sync hundreds of tracks. Please let me re-authorize the computer before iTunes deletes all the tracks!

    won't let me uninstall bojour
    If you do a Google search you will find uninstall instructions.  Google is your friend.

  • Computer died & had to be restored before I could sync new iTune purchases

    I made several purchases through iTunes store and before I could sync to iPod my computer died. With new computer, I can ee past purchases on activity but how can I get them to iPod without having to purchase again?

    If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on any of the links on this page you'll find a space at the bottom to email your query: iTMS Customer Service

  • Got a new computer- Can I sync new iTunes with my iPod?

    We recently had to purchase a new computer, and unfortunately I was not able to transfer my iTunes data from the old computer to the new one. I just downloaded iTunes onto my new computer, though of course it does not have any of the old data. My iPod has everything I need on it. We were able to transfer all our MP3's to our Music folder, so the files that are uploaded to my iPod are on the new computer. Is there any way I can transfer the information from my iPod to the iTunes?

    are you using an iPod Touch or a regular iPod (e.g. Classic) ?
    if the latter, maybe this KB article helps.

  • I can't log out of my iTunes on my old laptop because it has a virus and won't turn on, and this means i can't add/sync new music to my iPod on my new laptop.

    it's getting really irritating since i now have an awful lot of CDs stacking up since i can't add them to my iPod, any suggestions on what to do WITHOUT erasing my iPod content?

    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.
