  • My old laptop crashed, how do I get music and pictures from ipod touch (2nd generation) to new laptop?

    My old laptop crashed.  I bought a new one, but when I loaded itunes and plugged in my ipad 2, it only added the songs that were purchased in the itunes store.  I upgraded my os to 5.0 and it deleted all of my songs, a lot of my apps, and all of my pictures except for the ones on the camera roll.  I have these pictures and songs on my itouch 2nd generation but I can't get it to synch with the new computer.  All of the solutions I have seen online don't work.  I can't upgrade to the newest operating system because it is only 2nd generation. I tried turning on Home sharing and saving to the cloud, but I can't get it to work on the itouch.  Please help! 

    I don't have a backup copy of my old computer.  I bought an external hard drive and it said it backed up, but when I plugged it into my new computer, it was empty.  My old computer is not accessible.  Is there a way to get the music and pictures that are on my iphone and ipod onto my itunes account on the new computer? I have already lost them on my ipad.

  • How do I get iTunes to recognize my iPod over a network?

    Ok So I have an Apple Time Capsule which I use as my router and NAS drive. Though I also plug my iPod into the usb port on it. The iPod is recognized on my computer and over the network easily although how can I get iTunes to recognize it and be able to add music and video?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    Even though it's physically possible, I doubt an iPod is intended to work that way. Why do you want to do that?

    What I believe you're seeing is the disk drive function of your iPod, which is different from the music player function. I'd give up trying to play music from your iPod while connected to a Time Capsule.

  • HT1351 How do I get iTunes to recognize my ipod classic?

    I have a library on my ipod classic. can't import them to itunes-it doesn't recognize my classic. i have read all the articles about how to connect, etc but none of the stuff worked.
    I bought an ipod touch and now have to copy all my CDs into itunes to get the MANY songs to my touch.
    How could apple make it almost impossible to use older ipods with itunes???

    The latest iTunes works with my old 3rd gen iPod from 2003, and no doubt works with the original iPod from 2001.  So I don't think the problem is iTunes.
    The latest iTunes may hide the sidebar, which is where the iPod appeared in previous versions.  If the sidebar (along left side of window) is hidden, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the iPod should appear under DEVICES.  It does not appear there when you connect it?
    When you connect it, does anything happen on the iPod's screen?  Does the iPod's battery charge when connected?  Does the iPod still work (as an iPod) for listening to its music?

  • How do I get iTunes to recognize my iPod without losing all of my music?

    I keep all of my music on an external harddrive. My computer crashed and once I fixed everything and reloaded all of the software, I tried connecting my iPod. All of my music is on the external harddrive and on my iPod, but I can't get iTunes to synchronize. I don't want to redo all of my playlists. Is there a way to get iTunes to communicate with my iPod without losing anything?

  • How do I get ITunes to recognize my IPod?

    When I plug in my IPod, my computer knows that it's there, but ITunes won't acknowledge it. I think it might need to be updated, but I can't do that either, because the Ipod updater won't recognize it either.
