HELP - I cn only import half of the music on Itunes onto my nano!

I am only able to import half of my music onto my ipod nano even though the music has been on the ipod before. Im not sure whats gone wrong! The error message keeps coming up as it is synching to say the music can not be played on this ipod - can anyone help?

Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
Let this be a very important lesson learned.
Best.

  • How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my old iPhone.

    How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs without affecting my iPhone 5? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my current iPhone. iTunes won't let me change the device name for the 3gs. I just want to use the old iPhone like an touch.

    Hi littlemansa,
    If I am understanding you correctly, it sounds like you are returning to an old iPhone that has been erased and you would like to set it up as a new device without restoring from a backup which would affect the name of your iPhone, as well as the contents therein. I have an article for you that can help you set up your iPhone as a new device, and that information can be found below:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    Basically, it seems like you may be stuck on a screen that is asking if you would like to restore your device from the backup that is filed under the name of your new iPhone, or if you would like to set up the device as a new device. I would suggest that you set it up as a new device to achieve your desired results. 
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • MBA: dock is only showing half of the indictor light

    Hi.
    My situation here is more annoying than a problem, but it's pretty simple: whenever the indicator light on the dock is switched on and programs are open/running, the dock is only showing half of the indicator light (the rest is hidden under the dock plattform).
    This happened after I updated my MBA to OS X Mountain Lion.
    Can anyone help me with my annoying problem?

    Unfortunatetly this is one of the design changes Apple made. I too find it annoying. You can go here to register your unhappiness and request change. Be sure to explain why this new design is not good.

  • IPod only gets half of the songs from new albums...

    I have an iPod classic, purchased in 2008. I am running into an issue where when I add new albums to iTunes (not from the iTunes store or from an actual CD), only about half of the songs will make it on to the iPod when I sync. The songs all show up and work on iTunes, and my iPod is set up to add the entire library, but some of the songs just don't make it on there. The iPod isn't anywhere near capacity. I've tried adding them to specific playlists and although they show up fine on iTunes, they are just completely missing from the playlist on the actual iPod. Everything is up to date, software wise, so I'm hoping someone can offer some guidance. Thank you!

    Error correction may be the problem; it was for me. See if it is checked and if it is uncheck it. You will find it under File>Preferences>Advanced>Importing. I hope this solves your problem.

  • Satellite A40: How to update the BIOS because I only have half of the Bios

    Hi guys
    i went to the local computer shop with my satellite A40 because i only have half of the bios !!!
    I sent an email to the german toshiba technical support and they said try a bios update (which baring in mind i still dont know how to do)then we sent my laptop to a local computer shop and told them the problem they told me not to update bios on a cempron processor.
    Why not? What are the risks in need to know.
    please help me because i want to in the future possibly upgrade to vista??

    Hello Daniel,
    Im a little bit confused about your message.
    What do you mean with only have half of the bios?
    Whats wrong with the BIOS?
    The Toshiba support said -> try a BIOS update.
    On the Toshiba page you can download the BIOS for the Satellite A40.
    It seems you didnt check the download page detailed because on this page you would find this instruction:

    The BIOS update was detailed described in this document and you should follow these guide lines to update the BIOS.

  • TS1702 When we double tap the home button, only about half of the icons appear at the bottom.  How do we get them all to appear?

    WHen we double tap the home button, only about half of the apps appear.  How do we get them all o appear?

    If an app freezes on you - you can try force quitting the app.
    Force quit the app by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears. Let go of the sleep button and then hold down on the home button until the app quits. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • When I use the 'reply' tab in Hotmail I can only see half of the screen and am unable to scroll down to view the email I am responding to. How do I fix this?

    I use Hotmail and when I hit 'reply' I can only see half of the page. I cannot tab down to read the email I am responding to and if I type too much the text disappears into the hidden section of the page. This does not happen in Google Chrome when I checked it so it is a Firefox problem.
    How do I fix this?

    OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

  • Downloaded album from iPhone iTunes and only got half of the album

    Downloaded album from iPhone iTunes and only got half of the album. Where is the rest of the album? My iTunes account showed that I was charged for the full account>

    Welcome to the forums!
    I'd contact the iTunes store and explain your situation. While they normally do not allow duplicate downloads the iPhone and Store interface is brand new and bound to have some issues to start with. I'd suspect they'll just allow you to download it again or credit your account.

  • Triggered Cameralink Acquisition only Capturing Half of the Frames

    Hello all,
    I am aware of this page -- http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/6FFA526966E2D29386257AA80054730A
    It describes my problem well, but I cannot find a good solution.
    I have four cameras that need to be triggered at the same time (they cannot be free-running!)... if I only trigger the cameras, and allow the frame grabbers to run without a trigger, I end up sporadically missing frames at higher and higher frame rates.  At 100FPS I lose about 40% of the data, but around 50FPS I capture all the data fine.
    When I trigger both the frame grabber cards (1430s) with the cameras, I seem to consistently miss every other frame.
    I have tried triggering the cameras on a rising edge and the cards on the falling edge, but no matter what I do I end up only collecting half of the frames I would expect to collect over a period of time.
    Below is a snippet of code that I'm using for the acquisition, is anything glaringly obvious???
    Thanks for any suggestions!
    -MK

    It sounds like the fastest your camera can go with an external trigger is 50 Hz.  As soon as you go faster than that, you miss every other trigger because the camera is still busy handling the previous trigger.
    Will the camera go faster in free run?  If so, it is probably just a hardware limit on triggering.  If not, it could be your exposure time is limiting the frame rate.
    Did you include details of which camera you are using?  That information would be useful.

  • Safari only shows half of the internet pages

    Safari on my iPhone5 only shows half of the webpages I go to. It's not even a propper half, like, it's slim or missing the bottum. No, it just shows one corner and the rest is black and gray. It's hard to discribe so I made 2 printscreens. This is how it looks like when the screen is vertical:

    And this is horizontal:
    http://nl.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=9qjwk8&s=8#.VDvrOGd_vZ1
    What is going on and what can I do to fix this?

    Hi RedRavenRiot,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone only displaying part of a web page, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
