How do i get my computer to start itunes when i plug my ipod in please

Dear All,
How do I get my computer to start up itunes when I plug my ipod in.

- With the iPod connected to the computer go to the Summary pane in iTunes for the iPod and under Options check the box that says open iTunes when the iPod is connected.
- If when you manually open iTines and connect the iPod the iPod does not show in iTunes:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

    In the text you say you are using Snow Leopard. Snow Leopard will not operate on a G4 (or any Mac with a PowerPC processor). Leopard OS 10.5 is the max OS for PowerPC processor Macs. Your profile shows OS 10.5.6. What OS are you using (or trying to use)?
    Will the PB boot using a systen install DVD?

    my new ipod classic 160 gb powered off and won't turn back on. if i plug in to computer, itunes will not open. if i start itunes first then plug in ipod, itunes freezes up. Looking for help. thanks. Was not connected to the computer when ipod died.

    I have not heard of a good reason for this to happen or how to fix. 3 days later my screen lights up and says to connect to charger.... so its back "for now". Best music player on the market when it works.

  • Recently, U2 music appeared on my ipod without my requesting it or wanting it. I was able to delete all of the songs except for one. How do I delete the last one from my ipod? The song does not show up in iTunes when I plug my ipod into the computer.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod/Ipad/Iphone, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Hard Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds or until Apple logo appears
    Make sure you have Itunes downloaded
    Make sure Itunes is the latest version
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

HELP! I got married last week on holidays and have not had a chance to save photos yet.

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

  • I upgraded my PC from Win7 to Win8 and installed itunes, when I plug my ipod in it wants to erase it as its sync'd to another PC.  How do I fix this a I dont want to loose my playlists?

    I upgraded my PC from Win7 to Win8 and installed itunes, when I plug my ipod in it wants to erase it as its sync'd to another PC.  How do I fix this a I dont want to loose my playlists?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer

  • Hey guyz.. i wanna ask if i get an updated version from itunes when i plug my iPhone into the Pc, i get a letter tells me that there is an update for your iPhone ... i wanna ask is it safe to download ?? and does it make any side effects on longTerm using

    It is safe to download if your phone is not jailbroken. Before you download it, however, take some precautions:
    Reboot your computer
    Disable your antivirus and firewall
    Connect the phone cable to a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub
    Before updating right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "Backup"
    When you are given the choice choose "Download only", not "Download and Update"
    After the download completes successfully click the Update button to install it.
    Most of these steps are just being overly cautious, as most people ignore them and have no problems. But occasionally the extra steps save grief.

  • How do I get a program to start up when I turn my computer on?

    You know how in the dock, there's a little triangle under a program that's technically running even if you don't have a window open? Dashboard and Finder always have that triangle after start up. How do I get another program, like Safari to "start up" with that triangel all the time even if I don't want to have the browser window open when I turn my computer on?

    Open the Accounts pane of System Preferences, add it to the list of login items for your account, and check the box to hide it. Some applications, such as Mail, ignore the box in Mac OS X 10.4 and are always visible when launched; in this case, an AppleScript can be used to hide them.

  • How does one get huey pro to start up when computer starts in morning

    Huey Pro is a sensor that measures and monitors the light in the room so that colors are rendered as acccurately as possible.  Once I calibrated the screen and device, it should fire up when I restart the computer but it dos not.  the icon in the system folder when clicked, says that the system preference folder needs to restart, the it will fire up. 
    So How does one get this to start early.
    Robert

    Hi Robert
    I am not sure that you can make the Huey Pro work correctly.Worked fine on windows but it was the one programme for me that I have never had success with on the Mac.
    I have checked the Huey web site for info but the support seems to have stopped.
    So the only way I can do it is to wait until the Icon is in the top right section of the screen,note that a white cross is in it and then click on the Icon in the dock open up the programme until the Start bit occurs then just click the close button.That fixes it for me.

  • How do I get my computer to start opening up files instead of opening a pop up window rather than the file?

    My computer has started opening up pop up windows that say, "Step 1: Select File, Information Gathered Successfully, Step 2: Click Show Information Button", instead of opening the file I click on. This informaion windown has generated another pop up window that suggests I visit the iTunes store for an app that will open the file. Twice I have purchased apps that the iTunes store said would open the file. Twice the apps have made no difference at all. The apps did not open the file. Even more frustrating than being sold apps that don't work is that the files I'm trying to open are textedit files created with the software on the very computer that is now refusing to open them.
    How do I get beyond the pop-ups and open the files I created?
    Is it possible to return the apps that iTunes said would work, but did not?

    Please post a screenshot that shows what you mean. Be careful not to include any private information.

  • How do I get the App Store and iTunes apps back on my iPod?

    I restarted my iPod and the iTunes and App Store icons disappeared.  I already tried disabling restrictions; they were already disabled.  I tried resetting the home page and it didn't work.  When I search the iPod for the App Store or iTunes, there are no matches. Any ideas on how to get them back? Thanks, I've searched everywhere for the answer.

    - Restore from backup. See:
