I have an iPod Classic and the latest version of iTunes. I make all my purchases on my computer, but when I try to click the "add to" option and transfer the songs to my iPod, it doesn't work. How can I get my songs from my computer to my iPod?

In iTunes, how do I switch to an Ipod nano from and old ipod that doesn't work any more

in iTunes on your computer, how do I switch to an Ipod nano from and old ipod that doesn't work any more? It has all the folders and songs I had on my old ipod, but does not recognize my ipod nano and cannot sync with it?

Hi bob12345S,
If your iPod nano does not appear in iTunes when connected to your computer, you may want to troubleshoot using the steps on this page -

My iPod Nano doesn't work as it should...

I have just got my new iPod Nano. It's the 2gb model from the second generation. I was extremely happy, because it looks awesome and I thought that it would work same way.
The player is working perfect. Plays songs, really awesome.
But I have really BIG problems with iTunes. As I said I have got iPod today and everything is new and up-to-date - iTunes and I even somehow managed to update my iPod. Why somehow? I have extremely big problems with updating it. I think that it works okay now, but not at all. Everything is okay when I use an automatic system. I copy music I want to library, conect iPod then and everything copies perfect. The problems are starting when I try to manage iPod on my own - copy music etc. This simply doesn't work! When I try to change the system on non-automatic the error (-50) occurres and iPod cannot be updated. I even can't do this simple thing so there are no talks about deleting or copying music to iPod.
What can I do? That's simply driving me crazy :/
PS. Sorry for my English, but I'm from Poland. I don't know if the apple service exists here at all...

And I have one more question, when I connect my iPod,
iTunes turns on automatically and the iPod is seen,
but it's not seen in "My Computer". Is that ok?
Since you have the iPod set at auto sync the ipod would not show in "My Computer" (someone correct me if I am wrong). If you were able to successfully switch it to manual it would show as it would be in disk mode. So I would say that this is ok.
I have done a search for the error -50 you keep getting and can't find anything. At this point I would suggest contacting Apple support to see if they can give you some insight on this error. One thing though...have you tried uninstalling iTunes from your computer completely and then re-installing it to make sure it's not an issue with your current copy of iTunes? Also, have you tried to go through the 5 R's?
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
If you have not gone through the 5 R's, please try that first and see if it helps. If not, then try un-installing and then re-installing iTunes. If that does not work, then it would probably be beneficial to call Apple Support.

One day after having received my ipod , it doesn't work properly.

I've spend my entire day fixing an ipod i received yesterday
As I'm writing, I've received my video ipod of 30gb yesterday. Back then, I followed the instructions carefully , and I installed I-tunes and Ipod updater as instructed. I transfered some of my musics and pictures in the ipod and transfered a short video that I had converted first. My computer Toshiba satellite M45-S169 is well known for its performances, so obviously it incorporates USB 2.0 ports. Actually, all seemed fine.
I woke up this morning and went out with my ipod. Arrived at the library, I felt like using a machintosh..when I turned on the screen of the MAC, at the same time my ipod froze. I was speechless, the blacklight was on and I couldn't turn it off. I did what was instructed in the support site, which means that I reseted it. Afterwards, a sad ipod icon appeared on the screen. Once again I tried what was instructed but I couldn't put my ipod into disk mode. So, I plugged it in my computer trying to restore or update it as instructed but my computer didn't recognize it anymore. So, I re-installed all the softwares, and I updated them. Then, I restarted my computer but it didn't work. Finally, I did the last possible solution; it was said on the website that it might be my battery, so I let it charge during 1 to 2 hours but it wouldn't charge.
whenever I plug the ipod in the computer I see a black screen with an apple, then it shifts to a screen with a small battery with an exclamation point, which quickly shifts into a discharged battery with a lightning bolt, which last about 1min(it depends) before shifting to the screen with a sad Ipod icon with the blacklight on, and the apple screen once again. It does it over and over ...
Please help!!
Even though I'm pretty sure you will not have an answer considering that i have spend all my day on it.
I guess i will just ship it back with my big thanks to apple.
My Ipod and I ( A story of someone who bought a Ipod to use it only 1hours)
Should I prosecute apple ? Excuse me, i'm just crying the money I have spend months to earn in order to buy this crap. A lot of struggle to buy it,a lot of struggle to fix it, and nothing in return. It is sad, isn't it ?
I was really impatient to receive my ipod. I paid it, and I trusted apple. However, I was wrong. The first product apple that I bought just doesn't work whereas I was starting to be interested in others Apple products. I've lost my time on internet reading about the features of the ipod 5th generation 30go, which are badly detailed. I'm not complaining about the fact that the ipod is not perfect, which I understand. I'm complaining about the fact that apple don't aware his consumers of the high frequence of bugs. I don't find it quite professional. So, when a ipod froze, we think that it is uncommon before reading the articles throughout the support website and find out that it is considered as 'normal' to encounter those kind of issues.
morality: I will never buy an Apple product again.
I was stupid enough to make them engraved on the back of my ipod: 'It is wise to learn. It is god-like to create'.

Did you have it connected to the library mac when it froze? If so, why? I would be hesitant to hook my ipod to a unprotected public computer since it may be infested with viruses or have unknown hardware problems.
In any case, if you can get it to an Apple store they can probably help you with it, it sounds like it needs replacing.
A certain percentage of any complex product will turn out to be defective and will have to be returned, it sounds like you were unlucky enough to get one. Looking over the forums here it may seem like the ipod is plagued with bugs, but don't forget that there are millions who never have a problem and so have no reason to pipe up here. Personally I think Apple deserves a thumbs up for continuing to host these forums in spite of how they may cast a negative light on thier products to the casual observer.

IPod 5 doesn't work (GER+ENG)

German Version:
Hallo Liebe Internetgemeinde..
seit dem 28.3. befinde ich mich auf einem Schueleraustausch in Amerika, genauer gesagt in New Glarus / Wisconsin.
natuerlich darf da mein iPod nicht fehlen. Zum Glueck hat men Austauschpartner auch einen iPod, und so dachte ich mir, ich schliesse meine auch einfach an. Gesagt getan, es funktionierte, ich habe dann auch ein paar songs draufgeladen. Doch seitdem dreht mein iPod Video 30 durch. Bei manchen, nicht bei allen songs, beginnt das lied wie gewoehnlich, allerdings macht er nach einer gewissen zeit, bei jedem lied unterschiedlich, irgendwann nix mehr. Das lied soppt, und der iPod reagiert nicht mehr.
Als ich die lieder bei iTunes abspielen wollte, zeigte das mir an, dass alle songs mit dem Interpreten von S bis Z nicht mehr gingen (Grauer Kreis mit ausrufezeichen), diese habe ich dann geloescht.. aber da sind immer noch ein paar lieder, die immer noch nicht gehen. und ich kann um gottes willen doch den ipod nicht formatieren, da ich kein backup habe. Ich kann die dateien leider net sichern...
Was ist das problem und was soll ich dagegen machen? Ich hoffe, dass mir jemand so schnell wie moeglich helfen kann, ich drehe sonst durch...
Kann es an einer anderen iTunes software liegen, koennen moeglicherweise die neuen lieder einen virus enthalten, oder liegt es daran, dass ich den iPod ohne abschalten vom PC abgekoppelt habe?
Ich wuerde mich sehr freuen, wenn mir jemand helfen koennte.

Well, I'll try to make it in english:
My iPod 5 was connected at an diffrent PC. I loaded new song on the iPod and they worked.
One day later some songs in the middle and the ipod doesn't work anymore. I had to made an reset.
On itunes i saw that all sangs of the Interpret from S to Z doesn't work, so I have deleted the songs.
But there are a few songs, where the problem is as well.
Is it a virus or something else? What should I do?
I can't formate the iPod, because I"m a german in America, and I have no backups or like this.
I hope somebody can help me.. I'm sorry, for my ad language.
greetings Jan

It sounds like a hard drive problem with the iPod. Try repairing it by right-clicking on your iPod's icon in "My Computer" and click "Properties". Click on the "Tools" Tab up on top. Then click on "Check Now" to scan for and correct errors.

Help, why keyRepeated doesn't work

Hello,
I created a class to extend GameCanvas in midp2.0. In this class, I overwrote "keyPressed ()","keyReleased()","keyRepeated()" three methods.
"keyPressed ()","keyReleased()" both work very well to capture the key.
But keyRepeated doesn't work. It looks it hasn't been called back by system.
I used wtk2.0 DefaultColorPhone to test the code. Does the emulator not support KeyRepeated() ?
Can anybody help me this?
Thanks in advance.
henry

i not using wtk 2.0 but u can try hasRepeatEvents method to check the availability of repeat actions

My ipod nano 4th gen. scroll doesn't work at all. how do i fix it? do i have to send it in? and how much would it cost?

So it connected wirelessly at the Apple store where you took it for service? What kind of wireless router are you using and have you updated the firmware for it?

IPod Stuff doesn't work with my new iPhone

I finally sprung for the iPhone three weeks ago and I love it. But I think I'm going to have to buy more new stuff. Neither set of my portable speakers that I use with my iPod (5th gen. video) work with the iPhone. When I put the iPhone in the dock, I get some message about Airplane Mode. Music does play through the speakers, but they won't charge the iPhone. When I put the iPhone on its own charger and tried to use the auxiliary input on the speakers, there was only silence.
Do I need a special cable or something?
Also, my car charger for the iPod doesn't work with the iPhone.
Am I going to have to spring for another set of portable speakers? I've read that the Pure-Fi is compatible with iPhone.
Thanks!

Both my mini and my video iPod were USB -- not Firewire.
Both your Mini and your iPod with video synced via USB and charged via USB when connected to your Mac, but they also support charging via Firewire and most of the older 3rd party devices charged iPods via Firewire - your iPods include firewire pins in the connector for charging via firewire.
The first generation iPhone also syncs and charges via USB when connected to a computer, and the first generation iPhone also includes firewire pins for charging via firewire also, as your iPods include. The first generation iPhone does not support syncing via Firewire, but it does support charging via Firewire.
Apple removed the firepins from the iPhone 3G connector as they have done with all new iPods released after a certain date and for all new iPods to be released in the future. 3rd party device manufacturers were made aware of this so all new 3rd party devices must support charging via USB only or include charging via USB in addition to charging via Firewire if a new device is to be backwards compatible with older iPods.
