How can I sync my ipod to the i tunes library in my computer? and how can I make sure each Cd I play automatically is saved onto the Ipod?

How can I sync my ipod to the i tunes library in my computer? and how can I make sure each Cd I play is automatically saved onto the Ipod?
My problem is that if I open I tunes, the Sync ipod option in the menue is grayed out, and so not available.
This is starting to irritate me, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

I have the same problem. The Sync ipod option in the menue is grayed out, and so not available. HELP!

  • What is best antivirus software for Mac Mini? Recently the Trovi virus was on my computer and I want to make sure it is completely gone.

    What is the best antivirus software for Mac Mini?  I had thought Mac's were safer from viruses but recently I think the Trovi virus infected my computer, I have taken steps to remove but want to make sure computer is clean.

    To learn how to defend yourself from the threat of adware read How to install adware.
    There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
    You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
    Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
    Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
    OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
    A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
    Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up",  "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
    Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    "Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
    If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver movies or other copyrighted content "for free".
    The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

    My sister passed away two months ago. I have her Ipod touch. Can I put her music from her Ipod touch into my Itunes library on my computer and how?

  • How do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?

    I have three device: Macbook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) for work; an iPad and a Blackberry for mobile. I used mail, iCal, and Address Book combine with mobileme (iCloud) to exchange data such as contact, calendar and task from my Mackbook Pro to my iPad but never to Blackberry. The problem is my boss was asking me to change to Outlook 2011 for Mac because some of the email that I sent from Mail did not appear in my client's Blackberry. So how do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to Outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?  
    Best regards,

  • A few things: my ipod touch (4 gen) is plugged into my computer and charging, but it doesn't appear on itunes. Also, it shows that the wifi signal is working, but then it's telling me it's not.

    I also haven't exactly started up my ipod, I just plugged it into a laptop to get it working when I was on the road, but I planned to put it on a different computer where my info from my old Ipod nano is.

    Start her for PC;

  • The firefox icon disappears from my computer and I can't reinstall it.

    When i shut down my computer, often the firefox icon will be gone when I restart. I was just reinstalling it, but now I no longer can. Please help in terms I can understand as I am very inexperienced in computers. I got a new Macintosh in January and found it difficult to buy on ebay with Explorer. Firefox solved this problem and I want it back.

    If you mean the Messages app and you're running OS X 10.7, then you had installed the now-expired beta. To get it back, you would have to upgrade to 10.8.

  • Now I have to covert my i tunes to MP-3  formate to insert them into a power point presentation These songs are in my i tunes library on my computer I know how stupid it sounds how to I get them into a file on my computer seperate from my i tunes library

    S LIKE i BOUGHT SONGS NOW THERE IN THIS I TUNES LIBRARY THING NOW HOW TO GET THEM INTO A FILE SEPERATE IN MY DOCUMENTS ITS LIKE HOW DO i BREAK INTO THE I TUNES STORE ON MY COMPUTER AND GET THE MUSIC i BOUGHT AND PUT IT INTO MY COMPUTER FILE DOCUMENTS SO i CAN PUT IT INTO POWER POINT PRESENTATIONS AND IN A FORMATE COMPATABLE WITH WINDOWS POWER POINT.  I DID IT ONCE SEEMS LIKE I FORGOT THE RECIPE I DID IT WHEN MY KEY BOARD WAS DOWN JUST WITH THE MOUSE I MAILED IN MY LAP TOP GOT THE MUSIC OFF INTO A M-P3 PLAYER GOT IT BACK GOT THE I TUNES CARD DOWNLOADED SONGS NOW THERE TRAPED IN MY I TUNES LIBRARY LOL !!! ??? 

    One way friends of mine have done it....use iTunes to burn a music CD with the songs (presuming it can still do that, haven't tried it in a while)
    THen close iTunes and open windows media player. Use that to convet the CD file to MP3 (media player's default is to pull things in as wma, so you may need to change the preferences to mp3, or i'm pretty sure wma's work in power points)
    Once media player converts the format you can insert it into your powerpoint.
