  • How do i sync my nano 6th gen to a new computer when my old computer crashed

    How do i sync my ipod nano 6th generation to my new computer if my old one is crashed?

    This is one reason why maintaining a backup of all important data on your computer's hard drive is important stored on an external drive or some other external media used for backup purposes only which should include your iTunes library.
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store from an iPod/iPhone/iPad, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only.
    First you need to authorize your new computer with your iTunes account with iTunes. With your iPad connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPad.
    Before syncing contacts and calendar events with an empty supported address book and calendar application, enter one contact in the address book and one calendar event in the calendar application on your computer. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
    Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process is a one way transfer process only. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on the iPad as part of the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced. There are 3rd party paid utilities available that provide for transferring this data in the opposite direction with an iPhone, but if successful the original resolution of these photos will be lost in the process. Photos store on your computer's hard drive should be included with your computer's backup also.

  • Ipod nano 7th gen stops playing in the middle of song

    Ipod nano 7th gen stops playing song randomly while listening. What gives?

    i think i FINALLY solved the problem - by simply switching the wire that connects my ipod to my computer (i was using a firewire, and switched to a usb).
    Did you by any chance have the iPod connected through a hub , or through another device, G?
    Its not uncommon to have issues like this occur if , for example, you have a firewire device equipped with a "Prolific" 3507 firewire bridge . THese are found in many cheap external FW enclosures used for external burners and HD's , for example. The only real solution is to disconnect all such devices to avoid interruptions on the FW bus. (or, at least with the iPod, you can simply use USB2 instead).

  • Ipod nano 7th gen will stop playing randomly in a song. PLEASE HELP.

    Please help me with this. My new Ipod Nano will randomly stop playing during a song. What gives? Thanks.

    My Ipod Nano 7th gen does this as well. It will pause randomly, then i will hit play again, will play for a minute, then pause again. Seems like it does it the most when hooked up with a cars AUX input.
    I'm about to make an appointment with apple.
    Thanks.

  • How do I copy my library from an external drive to my computer without bringing all of my music just the library?

    I have 137,000 songs on an external harddrive.  I just loaded them all into Itunes on a new computer and took the time to sort through all of them and remove duplicates and correct artists ect to have it all sort well.  I narrowed it down to 20,000 songs.  Now I figured out the Itunes library with 20,000 songs is still on my harddrive and is just pulling the 20,000 from the 137,000 songs available.  How do I copy just the 20,000 in my library onto the hard drive on my computer.  I want to upload these into "Cloud" but want to keep them separate from the rest of the music?  Does anyone know how to do this?
    Thanks

    Designate a new iTunes Media folder outside of the current folder structure and consolidate the 20,000 files to that location.
    I don't have iCloud but I presume it counts the files in your library. If so you may not need to do anything at all, assuming you've eliminated the other entries from the library, but the method above will let you create one clean folder with your keepers.

  • HT1212 my i pod is disabled and im using a new computer all my songs are on it. How do I reset my password. I have synced this i pod with apple before but do not have these tunes on i cloud; only my i pod.

    How do I reset my password on my I pod. Ive forgotten the password and it is now disabled. I have previously synched it with I tunes and uploaded most of my CD's to it. None of which are on I cloud ?

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • Several of my purchased songs are not appearing in my laptop itunes

    I purchased them via itunes app on my iphone, but many are not appearing on my laptop's itunes program. I have synced my phone and laptop several times. Any idea how I can fix this?

    Hello, cimartin. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    This could be a result of Automatic Downloads not being enabled.  The best option would be to download the missing music via the steps in the second article below.

  • HT204088 Purchased songs are not available.

    I purchased music on my iPhone.  I connected my phone to my computer to sync. Once I synced, the last 4 songs I purchased are now not on my phone or my computer.  I go to the iTunes store to check for Available Downloads and I receive a message that everything has been downloaded.  I checked my most recent purchases in my Apple account and the 4 songs are listed.  How can I retrieve my purchased songs?

  • Authorized new computer. Most songs are gone

    Last night I authorized a new computer. Everything went fine. All my purchased songs were there.
    Today when I signed on, every single song has vanished except for the few I added to a playlist last night.  Where did all the rest of my songs go? How can I get them back?
    Thank you.

    See this migrate iTunes library post. Back up your library and other personal data on a regular basis. Then you will be ready to move it over to your next computer when the time comes.

  • Some purchased songs are not transferring from itunes to ipod even others from the same album did.

    Originally the songs were only partially downloaded. After completing the downloads to itunes it was suggested to de authorize the computer and then authorize the computer. Still unable to transfer to classic ipod. Even tried resetting ipod.
    Any suggestions?

    yeah, a little box comes up that says "the file ------ is not supported by the ipod" or some blah like that, and then theres this little button with a plus sign that you can click on and right next to it says 'see 181 total problems" and then it gives you a list of the things that didnt transfer. other than that, everything is fine.(well except for the fact that my music isnt transferring, of course.) its kinda new-ish, i got it in july, and its worked fine until now.

  • After the latest update my iPod nano 7th gen only plays/shows 261 of 849 songs from my main playlist, but they're definitely all on it.

    I have a favorite playlist, where're all songs in I rated with 5 Stars. It's 849 songs big. After the latetst update (1.0.3) the count under the playlist's name on the iPod says there're only 261 songs in and when I scroll through, the list really ends way too early.
    But if I use the iPod's tab "Songs" I can find every song that's synced with the iPod, even the missing songs from my favorite list.
    Also under the tab "on this iPod" on iTunes the favorite list seems complete.

    Oh, Bluetooth also daoesn't work anymore!
    Thanks for this great update, that causes problems where everything worked fine before!

  • How can I copy a picture from Iphoto to a text document?  Currently when I drag and drop the picture is truncated.

    hello Apple community.
    How can I copy a picure from Iphoto to a blank text document(not Word, but text doc)? Currently when I do this, the picture is truncated. This is more difficult than using a PC! there has to be a better way to copy pictures or share pictures!
    Thank you,

    Hello,
    thank you for your reply.
    I am using the TextEdit on Mac as I do not have Word. When I paste an Iphoto, the picture is truncated horizontially, so you only see part of the picture.
    Yes, the picture is small enough to fit on the page.

  • IPod nano 7th gen (brand new) doesn't recognize Headphones

    I have a brand new iPod nano (7th gen), and it doesn't detect when headphones are plugged in. I have read that the problem can ocurr because the headphones are not correctly inserted or that the headphone jack has dust inside. As i always do on a regular basis with mp3 devices, i cleaned out the jack to be sure
    This is what happens:
    When music is not playing i hear a crackle pop sound every 2 seconds or so. My headphones are perfectly fine and work with my Samsung galaxy s4 and my old iPod touch, and my brothers iPhone. Just don't work with iPod nano. I have 3 pairs of headphones all which do not work but I do not have the original headphones. they are so uncomfortable and seems unfair to me that apple would have a one size fits al headphone that only works with the device. I do not intend on switching.
    When I play a song, and then press the sleep/wake button to turn off the display, the music stops. Or if I let the music play, it stops when the screen times out and turns off. These two things occur because the iPod "thinks" that there are no headphones inserted.
    When I try to activate the FM radio, the radio won't start because it says that there is no radio signal (which occurs when no headphones are connected).
    Needless to say, the microphone and volume controls of the iPhone headset, don´t work at all (they even work on the iPod shuffle!).. and because of this, no voice recording for me!
    I have also restored the device in iTunes, and updated with no luck.....
    Thanks in advance for any useful answer!

    First, make sure the headphones plug is completely inserted into the nano's headphones jack.  It should "click" into place.  The fit may be tighter than expected, especially when new.  There is a sensor in there, and if the plug is not completely inserted, you may get some sound, but the nano will not "sense" the headphones.
    If that is not the problem, you should have the nano looked at under warranty.  It should work with any standard headphones. If there is an Apple Store nearby, you can make a reservation at the store's Genius Bar and take it there.
