How do i get my nano to forget a previously synce itunes and recognise a new itunes on a new computer?

i have an old 4th gen nano, that i have had previously synced to itunes, i have now got a new computer and i am trying to sync my nano to my new computer without losing all of my music from my nano, itunes keeps saying that the reason is that it is still registered to the old system, how do i change this?

If you don't have the prior computer backup files, you may want to look at this to get your information from the phone:

  • I have a new iPhone 5S, how can I get my photostream photos from my previous phone(iPhone 4S) to my new one.

    I have a new iPhone 5S, how can I get my photostream photos from my previous phone(iPhone 4S) to my new one.

    Setting up iCloud with the same account data and switching on Photostream should do the trick:
    I see different photos in My Photo Stream on each of my devices.
    Your device will keep up to 1000 photos, even if they are older than 30 days. Photos older than 30 days are removed from the iCloud server, so all devices may not have the same photos, depending on when you enabled My Photo Stream.
    If you prefer to have only the most current photos in My Photo Stream on each of your devices, and delete the older photos:
    If there are any photos in My Photo Stream that you want to keep, save them to your Camera Roll, then back up your Camera Roll and other data using iCloud or iTunes.
    Turn My Photo Stream off in Settings > iCloud > Photos (on a device using iOS 6, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream). Confirm that you wish to Delete Photos.
    Turn My Photo Stream back on. iCloud will automatically push your stored photos to your device.
    Repeat these steps for each device.

  • HT1481 How do I get rid of my music on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs?

    How do I get rid of old songs on my ipod shuffle and re enter new songs??

    This is document lists the four iPod shuffle models and the ways to sync music to the shuffle.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1719
    The way you remove songs depends on the model (1st and 2nd gen versus 3rd and 4th gen), and the method being used to add songs.  I don't know your specifics (please provide), I'll go with one possibility...
    You have a 4th (current) gen shuffle and you use the manual method to load the shuffle, by dragging songs to the shuffle from your iTunes library in iTunes (or using the Autofill feature). If that is your shuffle model and how you load it...
    First, in the latest iTunes, the sidebar can be hidden.  To show it, go up to the menu bar, under View, and select Show Sidebar.
    To remove songs, select the shuffle in the sidebar, under DEVICES.  "Drop down" its content list, which is indented below the iPod.  Click on Music there.  Over to the right, you see a list of songs currently on the shuffle.  Select the song you want to remove, and hit the Delete key on keyboard.  Confirm action.  You can do this with one song, a selection of songs, or the entire list (by selecting Select All from the File menu). 
    If you have a 1st or 2nd gen shuffle, or you use automatic syncing (not manual loading or Autofill), please post back.

  • I have a sync key, and have a new computer terminal, but when I enter the account details I created, it syncs nothing with my new computer. How do I fix this?

    I have a sync key, and have a new computer terminal, but when I enter the account details I created, it syncs nothing with my new computer. How do I fix this? There is nothing showing up when I sync with the sync key from my old terminal.

    <blockquote>
    I recently had to do a wipe on my laptop. I saved the sync key but there was no mention of a sync account prior to doing the wipe. I saved the key and when I did the wipe it asked me to make an account, which I had not done, but now I am seeing no where to put in a sync key code. did they make them unusable now or something?
    </blockquote>
    You are probably trying to use old Sync with Firefox newer than version 29,
    and they did make old Sync unusable on fresh installations of newer Firefox.
    You can uninstall that newer Firefox, then install Firefox 29 from here:
    https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/29.0.1/
    Apply your sync key code, then update that installation to current Firefox,
    then migrate to new Sync:

  • How do I get music onto a phone that hasn't been backed up to new computer without losing anything??

    I just found out my incredibly stubborn teenager's iphone hasn't been backed up at all since last spring. Her old 3gs was previously synced with my computer, but I thought she was syncing her 4 with her own macbook - evidently not. It hasn't even been backed up to icloud in months because she has too much data and not enough space. She refuses to remove anything from the backup cue even though nothing is backing up now. She usually just buys her music from itunes with the phone, but recently she purchased a cd since she wanted all the songs on it. She asked me to put the songs on her phone. Well I've got them in itunes, no problem, but I can't get them on her phone because it says it is synced to another computer. The only computer it could have been synced to is my old computer which is no more. How can I get these songs on her iphone? If I back up her phone in itunes and then restore from the backup I'm afraid it will lose something and she will freak out. I mean the world will end if she loses a single text message from last year. Can it be done? And if it can, I need step by step, idiot-proof instructions so I don't mess anything up. My husband says if she will get it to back up to icloud, it will automatically sync the songs from her laptop? Is that right? Or does it still need to be synced to itunes on that computer?

  • How do I get my music from my IPod back in the library of my new computer, it tells me I can only Sync my IPod with one library but I don't have my old PC anymore?

    How can I Sync my IPod in ITune on a new PC and get the music from the IPod in the library and avoid this msg:
    You can only Sync one library with your IPod?

    Use the backup of the media and other important files from the old computer to put them on the new computer.
    iTunes only syncs with one computer/library at a time.
    If you have failed to maintain a backup or no longer have the old computer, you may be out of luck.
    iTunes purchases can be transfered from the iDevice.  Connect the device, do NOT sync.  Select File > Transfer Purchases.
    This will only transfer iTunes purchases.  All other media will not transfer and will be wiped from the device when it is synced with a new computer/library.

  • How do I get rid of error message when trying to open Photoshop 7 on new computer?

    I just got the MacBook Pro, installed my photoshop 7 on it, as I can't find my CS2 disks, I think this is the 3rd computer I have installed it on, installed fine but when I try to open from the dock is says "an unexpected and unrecoverable problem has occurred because of a program error, Photoshop will now exit."  I am willing to re-purchase the CSwhatever upgrade, CS3 seems like it is going to be more stable with Snow Leopard than CS4, but am afraid that because of this error message, it won't read my old copy of 7 and thus won't load.  thanks for any help you can give.  I was on hold 45 minutes today with tech support, after 1 guy told me he couldn't help me.

    Have You made sure Photoshop 7 runs under Mac OS X 10.whatever?

  • My Thunderbird has stopped downloading messages--how can I get it to function again. I have rebooted and downloaded a new version.

    I disconnected my antivirus (Norton) and tried again, with no luck. Thunderbird says that I have 10 messages and tries to download, but then hangs up and quits. This happened all of a sudden with no seeming cause.

    Thanks for trying to help, but the instructions (see below) are too complicated for me to follow. So I'll just have to leave my Thunderbird with its broken wings alone until perhaps a new version comes out in which this problem is resolved. I never experienced it before--until I installed Windows 8.1 (so maybe that's the problem!).

    Hey 1Jerry,
    Thanks for the question. You'll want to delete and re-add your iCloud account (utilizing the new Apple ID address). When prompted, opt to keep as much information on your device as possible. The following article provides information on how to do so:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Is it showing in iTunes?
    If so, then connect the iPod to the computer. When it shows up in iTunes go to edit-->preferences and hit the iPod tab. Uncheck transfer album art. Click okay. Go back and recheck it. Let the iPod update and eject it when it is finished.
