How can i get itunes to not time out for my new ipod ?

my new ipod touch wont sync to my itunes and it keeps timing out. what should i do?
i already have an itunes account.

I have the exact same problem.  It asks me 3 times before it accepts the bloody password.  It asks me every time I open the program.  It asks me if the program is open and I venture over to their lousy radio feature.  Just leave me logged in for crying out loud.  Pardon my vent.

    iTunes just launches by itself when I use the Apple Remote or volume buttons on headset/earbuds.
    Will have HOST transfer your post to the iTunes forum.

  • How can I get iTunes to stop asking me for my password?

    Lately I'm asked to enter my password two or three times every time I open iTunes, and it's getting old. I am an adult and the sole user of this computer so I don't need big brother Apple looking out for me. Just give me something to sign so Apple's lawyers can go screw something else up and leave me alone to enjoy my music. Does anyone have an actual demonstrated working solution, rather than just some pet theory? (I say it this way, because I have tried several suggestions by other posters.. "just log out of iTunes, close the program and then open it and log back in..." and blah, blah blah, and nothing has even made a difference)

  • How can I get iTunes to answer my requests for help?

    I have tried for a few days now to get iTunes to help me get some tunes that partially downloaded. Their initial response seemed to work but the next day the tunes were only partially on my PC. I re-installed the software, called the phone number on my PayPal receipt, sent another e-mail request for help, responded to their follow up e-mail a few days ago asking if my issue was resolved.........and STILL cannot get them to help me resolve. They say I should receive a response within 24 hours, and it has been longer. No phone number to call, the initial instructions to re-download the missing tunes were confusing  

    It is quite easy to find out how to redownload purchases, using the search bar ( by Support) at the top of this page:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    You can contact itunes support again by clicking Support at the top of the page, then clicking the link under Contact Us.

  • How can i get files from my time capsule to my new mac?

    Hello there, 
    I know this topic i much discussed, but searching has not turned up a solution.
    I have a new mac book pro 15 on order and want to grab my files from my time capsule.   My old mac book pro 15 (3 months old) was encrypted with file safe.  In the past i have never had good results with bringing data to a new mac from time capsules; I've tried many times for my self and family.  As a result I use the time capsule for day to day old file retrieval needs and do manual backups of my data onto externals and NAS devices for migration to new computers-tedious but it has yet to fail me.  This time, I did that with everything except a few folders of my movies and pictures.  They are now prisoner on the time capsule.
    What is the best way to get files off the time capsule and does it require that my login and user name on the new mac be identical to that which was on my old mac?
    (I change my user names each time i get a new mac, not specifically on purpose but i haven't paid attention to what they were when setting up a new computer.)
    any assistance is appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks Allan,
    Help me understand what question you're referring to.  I've been through several new macs and am not sure what specifically you're speaking about.
    My old mac had a partition on the drive that I do not want on the new mac, so I am concerned about doing a full restore and prefer a file by file or folder by folder. is this possible?

  • How can I get iTunes to not delete partially listened to podcasts?

    I have Google searched this, asked all my Mac friends (for years) and I just don't know what I'm missing or why this happens....
    I listen to a lot of podcasts, pretty much 8 hours a day and lots in the evenings after I get the kids to bed. So here's what my problem is. Lets say I have an episode that's an hour long. I get through half of it in the evening and when I plug my iPod Touch (gen 1, old school I know) before bed to sync up all new episodes overnight, the episode I have only partially listened to gets deleted.
    From my understanding of things, a podcast that has been played, even if only for a few minutes of an hour long episode, is marked as "Played"....though the little blue icon in iTunes shows a half filled blue circle. Is there no distinguishing between a not listened to episode, a partially listened to episode (that I want to keep on the iPod until I finish it!), and a completely listened to episode? It's either been played or not, despite how much of the episode has been played?
    Ideally I want iTunes to delete from my iPod anything I've listed to all the way to the end. That works great with the current settings I have. I don't want it to delete episodes I've partially listened to and I'd sure like it if it would not only NOT delete it, but leave a marker where I left off so I can sync new episodes over night but pick up at the 28 minute mark where I left off on the episode I was listening to the night before.
    Now, when this occurs, I have to go into that podcast's list, click the partially listened to episode as not having been listened to, resync the ipod and download it to the ipod again...then try to remember where the heck I left off.
    Anyone have any suggestions, fixes, links to forum posts on what to do to get this very simple idea to work?
    Thank you in advance for reading this. I can't believe it's taken me 4+ years to finally post on my frustration...

    After a couple of days, I'm noticing that the repeat(ing) offenders have more than 10 episodes, and seem to keep repeating them every time I sync.
    They only show once in my phone and in the iTunes Podcasts, but through iTunes and looking at what's in my phone is when I see the repeats.
    Even after I've marked a podcast as played, and deleted it from within my phone, as well as telling iTunes to delete the played episodes, it still shows multiples of the played episodes.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it either. They aren't the newest ones either.

  • How can I get iTunes to not show multiples of the same podcasts in my iPhone?

    Not all, but some have the same episdoe multiple times. Every sync seems to add another one of them. This happens, through iTunes, in my iPhone 5. In iTunes, I show that I have 69 unplayed podcasts. When I sync, I can see it got to 68 for my phone (likely one is in the cloud), but then it flashes and now it shows 113. When I look at the unplayed podcasts, I show that some of them have as many as 17 of the same episode in my phone. When I go to my phone's podcast app, I see it once.
    It doesn't happen to all episodes, and I can't find anything in common between those that it does happen to. The newest update to the podcast app and itunes brought back some features that have been missing for over a year, but this is getting weird.

  • How can I get iTunes to NOT fill iPod shuffle in reverse order?

    Any ideas?? iTunes loads my iPod shuffle in the reverse order when I drag tracks from my Music Library to my iPod. This is important because I like to listen to audiobooks during my workouts. All I want is to listen to the first track first and not the last track!
    It seems as if the issue arose when I updated to the latest iTunes (7.1.1.5). The previous version worked just fine for me.
    I reloaded a book that I listened to previously. Although it loaded up several weeks ago OK, now it too loads the tracks in the reverse order.
    Thank you in advance for your suggestions!!

  • How can I get Itunes 7 to burn to my external La Cie burner, and not my internal Pioneer burner, which is behaving unreliably?

    Is there a way to reset the default CD burner? I have an internal pioneer burner the DVR105, and an external firewire La Cie burner. The La Cie burner is much newer  and will burn properly. However, itunes 7 is trying to burn to the internal DVR105 only, and it keeps giving me errors.
    How can I get Itunes to burn to the healthy la Cie? I know my Toast software recognizes it...I have burned DVDs to the La Cie many times before  in Toast. Itunes offers me no option to select which burner to use, unlike Toast. My OS is Panther.
    thx

    Sorry, Itunes is not giving me that dialog. Lemme tell you, it did give me a related dialog earlier today when my La Cie was not connected. Apparently it defaulted back to the Pioneer at that time. I have since reconnected the La Cie, and the system is seeing it, however Itunes won't offer me the option to burn to the La Cie. It just burns to the Pioneer, then gives me an error saying it can't burn the CD.

  • How can I get iTunes running on Windows XP as well as a newer laptop running Windows 7 to both recognize my new iPhone 4S?  It seems to work fine with Win 7 PC so far, but not at all with the XP OS separate laptop.

    How can I get iTunes running on a Windows XP machine as well as, separately on a newer laptop running Windows 7 to both recognize and sync with my new iPhone 4S?  I have different libraries on each machine which I need to sync with the iPhone, both in iTunes.  It seems to be workiing fine on the Windows 7 machine, but not even reconizing the device at all in iTunes on Windows XP.
    Thank you for your assistance.

    Hi turingtest2 - thanks for the reply. As you say It is how it is - and I have three workstations in this home (not counting three for my children and one for the family) and I pretty much always have more than one OS on each - that's how it is for me. I shouldn't have to worry about how many OSs I have (or how often I change them) just to have music while I'm working - through the PC sound system that is. I never have to worry about any other software, only iTunes. Once in a while (in the past) I've made a vendor call if I changed to many things to often (like CPU, GPU, memory, etc - or even a replacement MB) - but that hasn't happened in a couple years (at least since Vista) so I think (hope) they have fixed that for good. And even then it was a quick call and problem resolved. The only (glaring) constant problem is iTunes - limiting my own use of my own music (by counting an OS as a physical PC). Even with VM (which is just another OS) - although you can Attach things to multiple active OSs - it's still your own (purchased) music - and all on one PC. Thanks again!

    Make an appointment at the genius bar.
    If you went without an appointment, then it would make sense that you could be turned away.
