Help Needed Connecting my new Ipod to Computer

I have a new Ipod 30 gb. when first connected to home computer, i downloaded the entire music library onto ipod with no problems. then loaded software onto different pc, and connected ipod which promptly wiped all music files from ipod. When connecting back to original computer it keeps telling me that someone else is logged in and does not register the ipod on the original computer.
How do i get the original computer to recognise the ipod and download the library back onto the ipod?
HELP!
Thanks

  • TS1382 have a new iPod classic, did have nano, have an iTunes acct., but when i connect my new iPod to computer it will only transfer music not playlists or music videos ... what am i doing wrong?

    Having trouble syncing music videos and playlists to my new iPod classic, already have an iTunes account, have an iPod nano, what am i doing wrong?

    You may want to check ur settings. when you plug in ur ipod make sure it is highlighted then at the top of the page you will see tabs Summary Music Podcast Info....click on the MUSIC tab...in that box there will be 2 options:
    Sync Music
         Entire Music Library
         Selected playlist, artist, albums, and genres
    MAKE SURE YOU HAVE CHECKED OFF ENTIRE MUSIC LIBRARY
    I hope this works....Let me know

  • Help Needed - Connecting a new Router

    Hi,
    I have just bought an asus rt-ac68u router to replace my old BT home hub 3. I have connected it to the existing BT openreach modem
    I have configured the new router. The WAN settings are PPoE. The router is showing as connected to the Internet.
    However the problem is my computer shows the network is not connecting to the Internet despite the router saying it is connected. When I run a windows network diagnostics test it says there may be a problem with your Domain Name Server configuration
    Has anybody got any ideas what I have done wrong. I've left the dns field to set themselves automatically.
    Appreciate any help you can give. I don't know much about networks, the instructions made it look like it would be pretty much plug and play
    Thanks

    I don't have this router but going by the instructions here
    http://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/RTAC68U/HelpDesk_Manual/
    it should be fairly straight forward to set up. All the setting should be populated automatically when you connect with the exception of the setting I gave you.
    If you have changed or put in any settings other than the PPPoE and account name etc I gave you I would carry out a factory reset of the router and start again following the instructions to the letter.
    Make sure you are connecting by Ethernet before trying to connect by wireless.

  • Connecting a new ipod to my computer- Getting error message

    Hope someone can help me with this one...I am trying to download music from my computer to my new ipod (have another one too) and am getting the following error message:
    "The IPOD "SHABNAMS" can not be used because it requires itunes Version 7.0 or later. Go to itunes.com to download the latest version of itunes or install itunes from the cd that came with your ipod."
    I have version 7.0 downloaded already and was even able to sync the ipod with my laptop, but I keep getting the message above with my desktop computer.
    Any ideas onw hat to do?
    Thanks!

    1. Is there anything I need to do before I connect this new iPod to my iBook and do an update?
    No. Simply plug it in.
    2. Will my iTunes library freakout if it sees a new iPod connected?
    No. It will ask if you want to link the iTunes Library to this new iPod. Just say Yes.
    3. Will I be able to name this iPod anything I want and not create a conflict when I plug my own iPod later?[/b
    Yes, no problem.
    4. Would I be better off creating a new user in my PB, then connect/update the new iPod?
    Not if you are only gonna connect the iPod one or two times.

  • Help setting up my new IPod Touch on iTunes on windows 7 64bit

    Hello there,
    I need help setting up my new IPod Touch to my Itunes 10 application on a PC running windows 7 64bit. I have watched the tutorial on how to do it but what the tutorial says it is supposed to do is not what is happenning for me:
    1. In the tutorial it tells you to connect your ipod to your computer, then, (if it is for the first time) when the ipod appears and is selected, a window will come up allowing you to name your ipod, and begin selecting the options you wish to use.
    I did as instructed but quickly came against some technical issues.
    My issues:
    1-1: When I selected the new iPod Touch for the dirst time I got an error message.
    A) This was quickly fixed once I calld up apple support on the phone (turns out an IE browser setting was blocking it.)
    1-2: With that fixed I selected my iPod Touch again but instead of the window indicated by the tutorial, I instead got an iPod registration form window.
    1-3: I filled out the form and pressed the submit button (thinking everything was fine), then a new window came up that looks like this:
    Free Find My iPhone
    Free Find My iPad
    Free Find My iPod touch
    Set up Find My iPhone for free so you can locate your device if you lose it, remotely lock the screen, or wipe its data. You can also find your iPad or iPod touch.Set up Find My iPad for free so you can locate your device if you lose it, remotely lock the screen, or wipe its data.

    Find My iPhone (or iPad or iPod touch) enables you to locate your iPad with Wi-Fi or iPod touch only when it is on and connected to a registered Wi-Fi network. Find My iPhone is not available in all countries. "
    The first three lines and the first paragraph are indented as if there should be some type of graphic there, but it is missing. The underlined words indicate that they are supposed to be links, but they don't go anywhere, they are broken!
    Now wheenever I connect my iPod Touch and select it the above window comes up and nomatter what I try it will not move or change.
    Please help!

  • Connecting an new ipod to a new macbook

    My friend just bought a macbook a wants to connect his new ipod which he used on a windows computer until now. It appears on the desktop, he can open it but it wont show his music files. Tried to consolidate the files to the library but it doesnt happen.
    Any suggestions
    Al

    Then I suggest that your first priority before you do anything else is to try and get the songs off the iPod and into iTunes. As the iPod is showing up on the desktop one of these methods may work. There's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
    If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others as well, they are generally quite straightforward.
    Senuti Mac Only
    iPodRip Mac Only
    PodWorks Mac Only
    PodView Mac Only
    iPodAccess Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac & Windows
    PodUtil Mac & Windows
    iPodCopy Mac & Windows
    If you can get the songs backed up, try connecting the iPod back to a Windows PC and restoring it. Restoring will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings and with a fresh installation you may have more success getting the iPod to connect to iTunes on the Mac: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings with iTunes 7

  • Connecting my new ipod to my old ipods itunes

    i have just bought a new ipod nano, how can i connect it to my old ipods itunes making sure that all my songs wont be deleted? i recently tried to move my itunes from my PC to my laptop and all my songs disappeared!!! how can i make sure this doesnt happen again? i was not happy last time!! what did i do wrong?

    If you are adding a second iPod for your own use, just connect your new iPod to your computer and follow the on screen instructions to register and name it. It will connect to iTunes and prompt you to automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like. You can leave it at manual update or choose to sync music - selected playlists.
    By the way, I presume that your profile is wrong and that you are not really using Windows Me, neither iTunes or the Nano will work with this operating system.

  • I getting error when connecting my new iPod in my car. Getting error that usb is not recognized.

    Not all car systems are compatible with the iPod touch.  Does the documentation/website for the car system say it is compatible with an iPod with iOS 5?

  • Can't connect brand new iPod touch 4th gen to iTunes, please help!

    I just got a new iPod touch, 16 gig 4th generation. I'm going through the setup process. Once I get to the option to connect through a network, I hit a problem. My internet at home requires a MAC address to be "invited" into the network before I can connect, however I can't get the MAC address until I complete setup!
    So I choose the "Connect to iTunes" option instead. My computer recognizes that there is an iPod connected to it, but iTunes won't pick it up. There is nothing under "Devices".
    What do I do?? ):

    I just retried a step I missed earlier in the articles before and ran into a problem here:
    #5 Verify that the apple mobile devi usb driver is installed
    > for windows 7
    > if the apple mobile device usb driver is not listed
    > if only Apple iPod appears
    > for windows 7
    I went through all these steps until #8: Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog. At this point it tries to load for a bit and I get this message:
    "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.
    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. (Apple Mobile Device USB Driver)
    Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)"
    As for your reply, I did indeed already try removing and reinstalling all the Apple programs with unfortunately no effect.
    When I do the sync test, I get that one or more things failed: iTunes Helper not running and No iPod found.

  • Help! My brand new iPod nano isn't being recongized by my computer!

    Hello.
    My iPod Nano 3rd Generation 8GB won't work on my computer. I just received it yesterday as an early Christmas gift from my mother. When I first tried to plug it in, the computer saw it, but then a bubble popped up saying 'You may have some problems installing and using your new hardware'. I called Customer Service, and we figured out that it isn't the iPod, it's the computer. It works on all the other computers in the house, but not mine. When I go to Device Manager, the iPod's icon is covered by a yellow exclamation point (next to the USB icon it says 'Apple USB Driver'), and it says This device cannot start. (Code 10)
    Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.
    I've tried the 5 Rs, too.
    My old iPod 1st Generation works just fine on my computer, as it always had. I've tried both USB ports with the new nano, but nothing helps.
    As I said before, the iPod works fine on all the other computers in the house. Could someone please, PLEASE help me?

    I am having the same problem with an 8GB 3rd generation nano. I get the yellow exclamation point in Device manager next to 'Apple USB Driver' with the message 'This device cannot start. (Code 10)'. My system is running Windows XP Home and the latest version of iTunes. The iPod helper service is running. My daughter's 2nd generation nano comes up fine. I walked through the 5R's with no luck. I have also tried connecting the new 3rd gen nano to my laptop, a Dell Inspiron 6000 with Windows XP Pro on it, and it was instantly detected and came up in iTunes with no problem.
    Help!
