How do i copy a single song to an ipod from a computer

how do i copy a single song to an ipod from a computer

Hey rmanrussden,
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities. Adding just one song to a device is easy if you have the latest version of iTunes. The latest version of iTunes should have the option for Manually manage music and videos so all you would need to do, with your iPod shuffle plugged in, is drag and drop the song on top of your iPod shuffle. Take a look at the article below for more details if you need it.

  • Can't copy any more songs to my ipod from itunes - says its full but i have deleted heaps off my ipod to make room!

    I can not seem to add any more songs to my ipod. Normally i just click and drag songs i have highlighted in my itunes folders up to the Administrators' ipod and it puts a copy there in my ipod. however i keep getting a message saying there is not enough room  . . . and so can't add another song. I have deleted heaps of songs off my ipod to ensure sufficient room for these new songs i want to load but i keep failing - why would that be? Is the space not freeing up when i delete exiting music off my ipod for some reason - or any other reason?

    Try rebooting your iPod with it still connected to iTunes.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. 
    How exactly are you deleting this tracks from the iPod?

  • How do i add songs to my ipod from another computer without losing the music i already have on it from the original computer?

    i want to connect my ipod to a friends computer to get some of her songs on my ipod. every time i do this tho it deletes the songs i already had on my ipod from the original computer. how do i get this to work? please help

    When you connect the ipod and are prompted to erase and sync....just click cancel.  Then click the ipod name below devices in the itunes source pane.  From the ipod summary screen you want to check manually manage music and videos under the options tab.  Apply the changes and you are now set to manually sync.  Which means you just drag and drop the music you want to sync to your ipod below devices in the itunes source pane.   Refer to this for more detailed instructions:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535

    Hi thanks again, is there a way to do this through Icloud?
    No.
    To get your entire iTunes library onto the new computer, copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ from old computer to /Music/ on new computer.
    That is all you need to do.

  • How do I get all my songs on my ipod to my computer's itunes?

    I have a new laptop and want to download all my songs from my ipod to my new pc's itunes?  It seems the only sync is itunes to ipod and that will wipe out my songs on my ipod.

    Thanks.  Last time my ipod crashed I had to do something similar and download software.  apple doesn't make this  easy.  I swear this ipod is a PIA.  Whenever I have to download the newest version to my ipod, it crashes  my ipod and I have to take it in to the mac store. Ipod and pc's don't mix.

  • How do i copy a single folder in the bookmarks to another computer. the master backup does not have access to individual folders. in windows you can just copy a specific bookmark folder without overwriting the whole thing

    eg:
    bookmarks
    fav1
    fav2
    fav3
    just want to copy fav2 to another computer

    Unfortunately you can not do that it has been asked like forever and always gets pushed aside. You will have to export your bookmarks and strip out what you do not want being careful to maintain the integrity of the exported bookmarks backup file. Then import the bookmarks. into Firefox. The imported bookmarks will get added to a folder at the end of your "Bookmarks Menu" bookmarks folder. Move them to where you want them and then delete the folder you added to the "Bookmarks Menu". If you automatically sort your bookmarks (automatic sorting is a bad idea), be sure to turn it off beforehand.

  • How do i put itunes song back on ipod from my computer

    How do I put itunes back on my ipod when i reset my ipod by mistake. Songs are on my computer, but not on my ipod?

    You need to import the music into iTunes on the computer and then sync them to your iPod. See:

  • How do you copy all podcast information (new/deleted/downloaded) from one computer to another.

    I am changing my itunes computer and am trying to move my podcast subscriptions from the old machine to the new one.
    I want the new computer to know
    * which podcasts feeds I have subscribed to
    * which podcasts I have deleted
    * which podcasts I currently have downloaded on the old machine, so it can download them on the new machine.
    Currently I have only been able to get the feeds transferred.  The trouble with this is that this only automatically downloads the most recent entry - even of the podcasts that I am completely up to date with and have already seen that episode.  And, for the ones where I am not up to date, unless I can transfer the information, I am going to have to go through and manually delete the episodes I've already watched.  (and unfortunately it's not just a case of finding where I'm up to and deleting all previous episodes (some podcasts are out of order, some I want to relisten to) )
    Is there any way of doing this?  Old machine has iTunes 8.2, new machine has iTunes 10.2

    Thanks - I used the Layer > Duplicate command and it worked great!
    P.S. How do you drag and drop a layer? I tried dragging a layer to the other open image, but nothing happened. Do you have to hold down a specific key for this (I'm using Windows)?

  • TS1424 How do I download recent purchases (songs) to my IPOD from my recent purchases in I-Tunes?

    How do I download recent purchases to my IPOD?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.

  • Why Can't I Add Songs To My Ipod From Another Computer Without Erasing The Ones I Already Have?

    I have an "Ipod Touch 4 generation" and I have two computers located in my home. I have authorized both computers for my ipod. Why is that when I go to a computer and authorize it, it will not let me download the songs on that computer, without erasing the ones I have already on my Ipod?

    Hi
    This is because your iPod can only be synced with one computer, not just one iTunes account.

  • How do I get my burned songs on my iPod to a different computer than the one I synced with when I loaded them?

    How do I get my burned songs on my iPod to a computer other than the one I synced with when I loaded them? I purchased a new computer and want to transfer my library to it. The only sync option I get is to erase the ipod and sync it.

    By using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • How do I transfer my songs that I downloaded from another computer onto a different computer?

    I have an Ipod Classic 160GB. I have all my songs downloaded from an Itunes library on a different computer. I want to know how I can take all the songs that I downloaded from that computer onto a new Itunes library for this computer. This is a Mac I dont know what brand its just a Mac.

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    Once you get the domain.sites file copied from your old Mac to the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on your new Mac follow this:
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • How can I delete a single song from my iPad?

    How can I delete a single song from my iPad?

    Hi lizdance40,
    The first part of your answer worked great, thanks for that!  However, since doing that, there are still songs on the iPad that I want to delete. I place my finger on the song, swipe to the left....and nothing. No red "delete" appears at the right. That used to work on my full size iPad, but not on this mini. I just purchased it last Friday...maybe it's defective?
    Thanks again,
