How can i use my ipod touch as a storage device/storing photos

The suggested advice in this support article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1478 wasn't a help at all, because the option "enable disc use" in the summary window of itunes doesn't appear. I am runnin' the latest itunes version and the latest ipod touch software, by the way.
Secondly, i have some photos on my ipod touch which a friend of mine copied from his macbook pro. Now i would like to copy them on my computer. itunes doesn't offer any option for this.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thx in advance

*From the article*:
Products Affected
iTunes 7 for Mac, iTunes 7 for Windows, iPod nano, iPod shuffle, iPod mini, iPod, iTunes 8 for >Windows, iTunes 8 for Mac
No mention of the Touch, it works differently from other iPods and has no "disk mode" as such.
I think it can be used as a storage device by using a 3rd party App, search the the App Store for such items.
Photos transferred to your Touch via iTunes will be of severely compromised quality i.e 640x480 pixel resolution and file size around 600-700 kb. These can be retrieved, again using a 3rd party application on your computer, such as [Touch Copy|http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy> but you will not get back original quality images.
Good luck,
Dud.

  • How can I use my iPod Touch as a remote for iTunes, while connected via USB?

    I was wondering if I could use my iPod touch as a remote/iTunes extension while it is connected to my computer via usb.
    It would be highly practical to control my music from there, since it is charging right by my side while I'm at my computer.
    Remote is not really an option, my computer doesn't have bluetooth or any connectivity. Something over wifi would work, but there's a usb connection right there that's begging to be used.
    Thanks

    You can't do it via USB.  Go to the App store and download/install the Apple Remote app.  It can control iTunes on your computer via wifi.

    Thanks, Apple support is always the best

    Likely by using this.
    Reflector - AirPlay mirror your iPhone or iPad to any Mac or PC, wirelessly.
    You can also AirPly to to an Apple TV and may do someting witht Apple TV HDMI output
    Further, y canuse one of these cable to output to a VGA or HDMI signal and maybe use that.

  • How can I use my ipod touch 2G as a voice recorder?

    I'd like to use my old ipod touch as a voice recorder. It's an ipod touch 2G (8 gig) using iOS 2.2.1. I tried updating the iOS but an unknown error (-1) occurred. I'm using iTunes 11.3 on a MacBook Pro 10.7.5. Any ideas?

    Error (-1)
    Try on another computer
    Also see:
    iOS: If you can't back up or restore from a backup in iTunes
    Then see:
    -1 error
    -1 error too
    If still problem  that means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If you get it to work I then the 2G iPod has a built-in Voice Memos app but you will need to purchase an microphone since the 1G-3G iPods did not have built-in mics. The mic plugs into the headphone jack.

  • How can i use my iPod Touch as an External drive on my mac?

    Hi,
    I was trying to copy some videos form my mac to my ipod touch but the videos were to big to email.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Why were you trying to email the videos? That's not how you get videos onto your iPod in any case. You sync them through iTunes; get the videos into the iTunes library and then sync them to the iPod just as you do music, apps, etc.
    Regards.

  • How can I make my iPod touch 2G appear under "devices with removable storage"?

    My ipod always appears under "portable devices" under "my computer". I use Windows 7. I want to know why it does not appear under "devices with removable storage". I manually manage its contents. Please give any suggestions that may help. Thanks!

    - Because via My Coputer yu can only access the the photos (DCIM folder) taken by or saved to the iPod. The iPod touch (and iPad and iPhone) do not have a disk mode like other iPods)
    - You need a third-party program like SharePod to access music w/o iTunes

  • Using iPod touch as a storage device - transferring photos while travelling

    How do I transfer photos from my camera to my Ipod touch when I'm travelling without my computer? I've been looking on forums which say the camera connector doesn't work with the Classic, does work with older iPods but there are problems draining iPod & camera batteries. I can't find any info on whether there is a camera connector which works with Ipod touch. Any suggestions?

    Even though iPod Touch does not offer a 'disk mode' you can transfer photos directly to your iPod Touch with the Apple Camera Connector, sold on the Online Apple Store. I've had a senior representative phone me to confirm it's compatibility with iPod Touch.
    Hope This Helps.

  • How can I use my iPod touch to restore my iTunes library?

    I recently had to reformat my computer so everything is gone. I have all my music backed up on an external drive, but can't I  just download everything off my iPhone and iTouch back into iTunes?

    The music sync is one way - copmputer to ipod/iphone.
    The ONLY exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    You need to copy everything from your backup copy to your computer.
    The iphone/ipod is not a stoarage/backup device.

  • How do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account?

    how do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account?  can they share apps and music etc. I'm not very good at any tech so advise would be much appreciated.

    Yes. You can sync an unlimited number of iDvies that you control to one iTunes library/account. If using the same iTunes library on the same comutr just make sure that yu go to the ap. music and other pane for the iPod in iTunes and select sycn selected items. Not the the whole library.  That way each iPod can have it own contents.

  • How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or to charge?

    How can I get my ipod touch to turn on or charge?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.
