  • Help: nano and lost music

    Last week my computer got a virus, so i contacted dell and they guided me through a total system restore. First of all, I backed up all of my music in my library. Unfortunately, during the transfer some of my files were lost. However, i have all the music on my ipod nano (1st gen.) but i am afraid that if i connect my nano to my computer it will wipe the files on my nano and replace with them with the files in my itunes library. What should I do? Is ther any way that i can connect my nano without losing the music that is already on it??

    Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
    Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    TuneJack Windows Only
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iGadget Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    SharePod Windows Only
    iRepo Mac and Windows
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac and Windows
    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • Having trouble Syncing my nano and shuffle using the same libary

    I have only one libary but I have a iPod nano and a iPod shuffle. When I connect to itunes to sync my shuffle, everything goes well. Then I try to sync my nano but it does not sync. Yesterday I bought a album from the iTune store and I was able to sync the new songs into my Shuffle. I can not do that with my nano? Can someone help me understand what needs to be done? Both are carbon copys with the same songs. One my husband uses and I use the shuffle. I would appreciate any help

    I get no error message. I first plug in my shuffle - everything syncs. Then I plug in the Nano, it just sits there. I go to the top and try to click on "sync ipod" but it is light gray and will not allow me to click on it.

  • Nano and Shuffle read "synced" but aren't.

    Hi, all. I'm a newbie here.
    I download from two playlists to my Nano (Gen. 4, 16Gb) and to my Shuffle (Gen. 3, 4 or 6 Gb), to keep the categories of music separate. Since upgrading to version 9-point-whatever, both iPods read almost immediately as "Syncing complete. You may now disconnect," without then automatically continuing to both synch and recharge, nor to give a warning on the screen not to disconnect until both are complete (about three hours, right?).
    BUT when I do disconnect and check the Menu on both of them, the newest purchases/uploads that have successfully been entered, and show up listed, in my Library are NOT THERE.
    Not only that: My Shuffle has successfully downloaded only about 110 of the over 200 songs: Exactly the first 110, alphabetically.
    Remedies, anyone?
    The problem should not be lack of memory, as my entire library is only 117_(? seventy-something) songs large, and just a little over 900 constitute the larger of the two playlists (for the Nano). I have no applications but songs running on either iPod.
    So: any help out there?
    Any assistance or tips would be most welcome.
    Thanks.

    Resolved the problem by reverting to previous software version.

  • Ipod Nano and Shuffle on the same computer?

    Hi guys,
    I’m having a problem. I recently connected my 2nd gen nano to my friend’s computer (who has a shuffle) and it thinks I’m her. How do I create my own “account” on i-tunes?
    The problem is that now she has tried to connect her shuffle to i-tunes and it’s rejecting her!
    I tried a different computer and it came up with her ipod name. How do I make it all mine and reset her settings?
    Thanks!!
    Natalie.

    "How do I create my own “account” on i-tunes?"
    Create a separate Windows User account for each person on the PC. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
    I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:
    Using Windows XP User Accounts
    "I tried a different computer and it came up with her ipod name. How do I make it all mine and reset her settings?"
    Have a look at this troubleshooting page, changing the drive letter for the iPod might solve the confusion: iTunes may exhibit strange behavior in relation to the iPod.

  • Can I have both Nano and Shuffle on one computer/same user account?

    I have a Nano that I use daily and also just purchased a Shuffle to take to the gym (I'm a bit paranoid about the Nano getting broken, lost or stolen). I'd like to have some of the same music on both devices. Can I do that? (I've yet to plug in my Shuffle in case one overrides the other.)

    Hi MNRobin,
    Yes you can! I suggest reading Knowledge Base Document #200432. If you want, you can select which songs go on which iPod by Manually adding songs, playlists, podcasts and audiobooks.
    I hope that helps,
    Jon

  • Ipod nano and shuffle are not recognized by my computer or itunes

    When I plug in the ipod, both the nano 6th generation and the shuffle, the device is not recognized by my computer or itunes.  It will be recognized by my computer for a few seconds and then disappears.  The device will show up on the right side of the screen in itunes but not on the left.  The troubleshooter tells me it is a compatability issue.  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes, i have turned off the compatabilty mode, nothing works.

    What displays on the iPods screen when you have it connected?  I assume you have tried another known working USB cable?
    Is iTunes up do date on your PC (currently at 10.7)?
    Have you tried connecting to another PC or Mac?

  • Using nano and shuffle

    I already have a shuffle and was bought a nano as a gift. What's the best way to transfer all the tunes from my shuffle onto the nano?

    Assuming your songs are in your iTunes library on your computer, all you have to do is plug your nano in and sync. If you do not have the songs in your itunes library then you will need a third party program to extract the files from the shuffle back to your computer so that you can put them in the itunes library and then sync to the nano. Several have been listed on here but one that pops into mind is yamipod.com. Also, in iTunes 7.0 or higher you are able to put any tracks purchased from iTunes back on the computer via itunes.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesMac/7.0/en/2586x.html
    Please note that although the header states "Buying from the iTunes Store with other computers" if you scroll to the bottom you will see the shaded box that tells you how to get the music from your ipod onto itunes. Again, this is only for songs on your ipod that was purchased from the iTunes store.

  • Ugggh!  Songs disappeared!  HELP iTunes and iPod help

    Okay, I don't know what I did, but all of my songs disappeared off iTunes. I think I was able to locate most of my CD's that I had downloaded, but anything that I had purchased is gone. What went wrong, and is there some way I can reinstall all of my songs?
    Also, if I connect my iPod to my computer will it take the songs that are no longer in iTunes off of my iPod?
    Thanks!

    Here is an article on

    Yeah, don't sync your iPod to iTunes just yet

  • HELP: Migrating and need help sorting out twin emails!

    I have a G5 for work and one for my home office.
    The emails on my office G5 are MOSTLY the same as those on my home G5.
    I.e. some of the emails I have BOTH at work and at home, some I dont.
    Now I want to put all these emails on ONE machine.
    And how can I do that without either
    a) getting a mega-huge in/outbox with twin versions of many emails
    b) manually sorting twin emails
    Is there a program that 100% safely can identify clone emails and delete them?
    Or is there another, more clever method?

    It isn’t clear what the situation really is. Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has a Remove Duplicates script that you may or may not find useful.

  • Help please - have a Nano and a Shuffle and neither are working! The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to do anything. I've done the reset,it worked the first time but not since. And the shuffle won't sync with my library!

    Hi,
    I have an iPod shuffle 4th generation and an iPod Nano 5th generation . The Nano wheel appears to have stopped working - I can't get it to play or anything. I've done the reset and it worked the first time, but now the only way I can get it to play anything is to shake it and go with the shuffle choices - I can't change volume, song, pause or turn it off.
    So, I decided to start using the Shuffle which I was given as a present last year. I've plugged it into my laptop (running windows 8 and newest version of iTunes). It appears in iTunes on the left hand side, but when I click to sync (whether I tick sync all or choose artists) it says synched but has no music. It seems to not be linked to the music library - when I tick synch all songs, next to the "sync music" it says 0 songs?
    Any help to fix either would be really appreciated - I'm without any music at the moment and I'm going away this weekend!
    Thanks

  • ITunes iClould help - syncing and accounts

    We have at our house one PC (Windows Vista) and we (family of 5) have always just used one AppleID.  We have two iPhone 4's since June, three iPod Touchs (newest gen), an older nano and shuffle.  That's our current set-up.  We have had our own playlists and settings, etc.  Everything was fine.  Since going to iCloud - iOS5, now our contacts are merged, each of our apps are on everyone else's device and the syncing is continuously making it hard to get back to where we were. 
    I starting looking into different users on PC, but my first question is, will iTunes sync with all the different users at once or will it on sync with the user that is logged in? I really don't want to set-up 5 users on my PC, especially for 3 kids.
    Second questions.  How do you edit your contact groups once on iCloud? I had a group called "golf" that was synced and now on my wife's phone. I deleted all the contacts in it and on Outlook and it will not go away.  Can one delete it off iCloud?  It seems once something is there it will not remove it. We have edited, synced, turned syncing of contacts on and off and it won't go away.
    Can I set-up five different AppleID's on a single computer? If so, can all five share the same music and video library? From what I have read it can only be done through five user accounts. What about if one user buys a song, will it be in the library of all the others? Then Home Sharing only works with one ID from what I see. So if I have five accounts and purchase another computer I have to have five users on the new computer. Please help. I bought Apple for the ease of use and this is getting very complicated.  
    We were playing around with Find Friends thinking it would be great skiing this year, but since my wife and I are on the same AppleID we cannot track each other and only one person can use it at time. 
    It seems to me Apple is pushing each user in the family to have their own computer and ID. 
    Hopefully someone can please help me have peace again in the house (Mom and Dad with iPhones and 3 kids with Touch's one on PC). What is the best set-up to fit our needs?
    Thank you,
    Ben

    I've read that article numerous times, and I'm trying to upgrade because MobileMe is requiring OS4 in order to work starting in about a month. However, the status box in iTunes hangs, saying Backing up iPhone...the little blue line only goes about 1/20 across the bar in about 1.5 hours. Any advice? (I have an up-to-date version of iTunes.)

  • Diff bt Help view and Maintanence view

    hi gem's
    i need the diff bt Help view and Maintanence view with example...............

    Hi
    The followings are different types of views:
    - Database View (SE11)
    Database views are implement an inner join, that is, only records of the primary table (selected via the join operation) for which the corresponding records of the secondary tables also exist are fetched. Inconsistencies between primary and secondary table could, therefore, lead to a reduced selection set.
    In database views, the join conditions can be formulated using equality relationships between any base fields. In the other types of view, they must be taken from existing foreign keys. That is, tables can only be collected in a maintenance or help view if they are linked to one another via foreign keys.
    - Help View ( SE54)
    Help views are used to output additional information when the online help system is called.
    When the F4 button is pressed for a screen field, a check is first made on whether a matchcode is defined for this field. If this is not the case, the help view is displayed in which the check table of the field is the primary table. Thus, for each table no more than one help view can be created, that is, a table can only be primary table in at most one help view.

    Difference between "Help View" and "Search Help"
    - Projection View
    Projection views are used to suppress or mask certain fields in a table (projection), thus minimizing the number of interfaces. This means that only the data that is actually required is exchanged when the database is accessed.
    A projection view can draw upon only one table. Selection conditions cannot be specified for projection views.
    - Maintenance View ( SE54 )
    Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.
    Please have a look at below link. It will help you.

  • Regarding f1 and f4 helps

    Hi...
    good morning..
    here is a  question.
    1.wht is the difference between f1 help and f4 help.
    thanks and regards,
    k.swaminth reddy.

    hiii
    Field help (F1) and input help (F4) are standard functions throughout the system. You therefore cannot assign any other function codes to the F1 or F4 keys.
    If the user chooses the F1 key or the corresponding help icon (This graphic is explained in the accompanying text), a help text appears for the field in which the cursor is currently positioned.
    If the user chooses F4 or the input help button (This graphic is explained in the accompanying text) to the right of a screen field, a list of possible entries appears for the cursor in which the cursor is currently positioned. The user can then choose one or more values, which are then copied into the screen field.
    There are various ways of making field and input help available to users. For example, you can either use ABAP Dictionary functions, or program your own help functions.
    Another special way to display lists of values is to use a dropdown box.
    Regards
