Having Trouble updating music into my ipod

I just downloaded all the newer software into my ipod and now after resetting when i plug my ipod into my coumputer the screen stays at "Do Not Disconnet" and will not allow me to do anything to my ipod through itunes

If you have your iPod set to transfer your music manually, then that “do not disconnect” message will continue to be displayed on your iPod until you manually eject it.
You can do this by clicking on the little eject icon next to the iPod listing in the source window of iTunes, or right click on it and select “eject”. There is also an iPod 'eject' icon in the lower right hand corner of iTunes. Another way would be to use the “safely remove hardware” icon in the system tray next to the clock (looks like a grey rectangle with a green arrow above it). Click on this then select your iPod. Or through Windows, select start/my computer, right click on the iPod, select eject.
If you have your iPod set to automatically sync with iTunes, right click on the iPod in iTunes, select options and if you have a check mark in the box marked “enable disk use”, remove it and your iPod should automatically disconnect after it’s finished transferring music.

  • I am having trouble updating files on my Ipod Nano 7g.

    I am having trouble updating files on my Ipod Nano 7g.  When I drag and drop files it simply holds and never updates.  This is a new issue and no new software has been installed.  I re-installed Itunes to no avail.  All serrvices appear to be running.  The Ipod does show up in Itunes but will not allow me to manage my music.  I ran the diagnostic tests and when this ran, it could not locate my Ipod.  Any help would be appreciated.

    I got a new nano for my son and have other ipods sync just fine to my HP but I plugged in and set up an apple account for the new nano and ordered  a movie and a song but the nano is just not showing up on the computer .....not syncing and I am afraid to clear things so 'it can be recognized' as it might effect the 3 other ipods we have working right....:}  thanks for your inquiry

  • Having trouble updating my 4th gen iPod touch to iOS 6

    I have a 4th generation iPod touch which is currently running iOS 4.3.2. It is not jailbroken, it is registered to me, and there is to my knowledge nothing wrong with it. I installed the latest version of iTunes on my girlfriend's computer because I don't have internet access at my house, signed in, plugged up my iPod, backed it up, and attempted to update it. I tried SEVERAL times, and each time iTunes finishes downloading the update, but won't actually install it on my iPod. I don't get any error messages; it just quits/gives up. ITunes offers no explanation as to why it stopped the update, and I have to start all over again. I don't understand why it won't work. Someone please help me. Thanks in advance.

    - Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install described here:

  • I'm having trouble getting music into my iTunes.

    All of my purchased music is fine but if I try and put a free mix tape, my itunes crashes. I get the "Itunes has stopped working" thing and it does that everytime. I've tried unistalling it, repairing it and doing whatever I could find on the internet. I cant get any mix tapes only albums that artists release. Right now I havent tried purchasing anything on my itunes because i just do it from my phone so I dont have to fiddle around with itunes on my computer. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know,  thanks.

  • With the new itunes i'm having trouble transfer music to my older ipod. I use to be able  to drag the music over from my new ipod.

    with the new itunes i'm having trouble transfering music from my computer to my older ipod.

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. This makes 1 look and act more like previous versions. Also go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod>Sync your device>Set up syncing>Sync device manually.

  • I have PC with Windows 7 and iPad. My music in iTunes on PC is available under Music on iPad but having trouble moving music to i-Cloud. I suceed in moving the music to iCloud on PC but when I look at iPad music still on device and not in iCloud. Help?

    I am a beginner using Apple software, so please bare with me.
    I am having trouble moving music from the iPad to iCloud in order to save space in the device.
    I realise that in order to store music not purchased on iTunes store can only be stored in iCloud if you subscribe to iTunes Match which I have done.
    Appears that moving music from iTunes on my PC to iCloud is successful by deleting song or album in iTunes library and than click on "Keep song" instead of sending to recycle bin. After this has been done the Cloud Icon appears on the album or against the song. However when I then look at Music on the iPad the album or song have not been moved to iCloud. I have tried syncronising with cable connected between PC and iPad. After that has been done the message is that sync was successful bujt still music has not been moved into the Cloud.
    Can anybody help? What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to move the music to the cloud working on the iPad only (without trying to use the PC to move the music to the cloud)?

    You can only add music to iTunes Match from your iTunes library on your computer, not from your iOS device.  If you have music on your iPad that is not on your computer, you'll have to import it to your iTunes library on your computer to add it to iTunes Match. 
    Music purchased from the iTunes store can be imported directly to your iTunes library by authorizing your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music (in Store>Authorize This Computer), then connecting the iPad to your computer, opening iTunes and going to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Music from other sources will require using 3rd party software to transfer to your computer, such as Touch Copy.

  • Why am i having trouble updating itunes  on my windows 7 (64 bit) computer?

    Why am I having trouble updating itunes on my windows 7 (64 bit) computer?

    Doug
    Thanks for the update.
    nothing is getting installed, copied or otherwise loaded onto my computer....first the program starts to load, then it asks for my serial number, then it goes out and seems to check the serial number then it says it can't be installed then it erases everything it just spent 10 minutes loading.
    In view of the above and your prior descriptions, have you tried alternative installation files?
    If you want to give a look to that approach, please download and install the tryout files for Premiere Elements 9 from the following web site and then insert your purchased serial number into them during installation.
    With this route, you need to carefully carry out the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" in order to avoid an Access Denied message.

    Back to my questions from post 3
    Are you getting any Shared Technologies error message any where in the installation process that is failing?
    If you follow the following path, do you find an OOBE Folder?
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files Folder
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the OOBE Folder which you rename from OOBE to OLDOOBE to disable it.
    When you are forced into a roll back for whatever installation has taken place, do you ever see a message about Shared Technologies?
    And, whether or not the program installs to any extent, does your computer have the OOBE Folder? If so, then please rename it to disable it before
    you try for another 9 install.
    Looking forward to your results.
    ATR
    Add On....Please remind me....since you purchased Premiere Elements 9, have you ever installed and used it successfully on any computer?

  • Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account    is not valid in the US  store"

    Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account    is not valid in the US  store" As I am new at this I don't know what I can do to remove this problem.

    What country are you in ? If you aren't in the US and the address on your account isn't in the US then try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.

  • Having trouble updating Elements Organizer 11

    Having trouble updating Elements Organizer 11.  I started it using Administrator priveleges, disabled firewall but keep getting "The update server is not responding. The server might be offline".  I am using Windows 8.1 x64.  My current version is 11.0.0.0.  I read that you may need to go into Adapter Settings and disable:
    Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter
    Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter
    Microsoft Hosted Network Virtual Adapter
    but I didn't see those listed! Help!

    Very frustrated!  What do you mean by "focusing on my host files"?  Every other reputable software company I know of has direct downloadable updates in case their "update manager" doesn't work, so I'm not sure why Version 11 of PSE doesn't have this capability.  I need to get my software updated!  Please help me (and I'm not the only one) get this working so I can move on to greater things.  Please be specific (I'm pretty good with computers so don't be shy).
