How do i save apps for a crashed ipod

I tried to update my ipod touch to 5.1 from 4.1 earlier today. I thought it had worked after a few hours but i guess it had to start over. I tried to update again but it said backing up. it would back up for 10 minutes then go back to the screen where it said update or restore. i did this a few times and the last time it said there was an error. Now my ipod touch is stuck on a screen with a charger cord with an arrow pointing to an itunes logo. it cant get off this screen. I don't know if i backed up all my stuff. It said backing up a few times but it never fully updated or told me it had backed up all my data. I went to itunes on my computer and went to devices. on capacity, softwere version and serial number it says n/a. I can't update but i can still restore. i don't want to restore b/c i will lose my data and since i don't know if it is backed up, or tell if it is backed up, i can't get my apps and music back. i want to know if there is a way to save my apps and other data. I can't leave the screen with the charger and arrow and itunes logo. i can't sync with itunes either. all i can do is restore. i am fine with restoring if i can get my data back.
Is there a way to check if i backed stuff up?
Can i still back stuff up if i haven't?
Can i save my apps and other data?

You have been syncing and backing up on a regular basis, haven't you?
Go to iTunes/Preferences/Devices

How do I find apps for 2nd gen ipod

I've been trying to download games for my son on this ipod touch but almost every game needs iOS 4.3 or higher! I just bought this thing- how can I download older games for him?

It's probably like looking for software for my G4 computer. You have to hunt around in a slow and methodical process and realize that fewer and fewer people develop for older platforms. Right now about 95% of my software is no longer being updated for my platform. You just stick with the old stuff. Make sure you have it backed up because developers sometimes remove old versions from download.

How do I save passwords for my apps

How can I save passwords for apps

You either write them down somewhere or you check the "remember me" (or something similar) button while in the app. There is no universal way to save them. It's up to the writer of the app whether or not to save credentials.

How do you get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch

How do I get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch?

By updating the iOS on the iPOd. The 1G can go as high as 3.1.3. That works with a lot of apps. But some apps require a higher iOS and/or newer iPod.

How can I save passwords for URL's

How can I save passwords for URL's? I just installed 10.6.7 Snow Leopard. I also had to format my HD drive and reinstall my software.

Hi,
From the Safari menu bar click Safari / Preferences then select the Autofill tab. Select the box next to:
User names and passwords.
Navigate to a site you normally log into with the user name and password. Click Yes when prompted. That will save that information to a new keychain for you.
Passwords are actually stored in your Keychain Access application. (Applications/Utilities)

How can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear

how can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear?

Hi-
This worked!. After updating to 7.0.6 a few days ago I was unable to delete apps. Called Apple support for help without success. I have NEVER entered a passcode to get in to restrictions so I know I didn't make this change (so I'm assuming that 7.0.6 did it for me). Apple wanted me to restore my iphone but thought I'd do more research first. Your advice solved the problem. THANKS!

I have a new computer. How can I save my music from my IPod to the new computer since it isn't in my Library. I don't want to sync and lose music.

Then you will need to search for a 3rd party program to transfer content
Pasted from another thread
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2234756?start=0&tstart=0
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Other free programs are Pod Player, SharePod and Floola and iDump andiPodRobot.
If you want to recover just the structure of playlists from the iPod (and not the actual song files themselves), there's iRepo for Windows. which I understand has this feature along with all the standard features for these programs.
iPodRip also has the feature enabling you to reconstruct playlists.
There is also CopyTrans. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.
More information is contained here.

Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch

A colleague just told me about this announcement from Apple -
Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch -
http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2012/01/19Apple-Unveils-All-New-iTunes-U-App-for -iPad-iPhone-iPod-touch.html
Do any fellow iTunes U administrators know anything about this? How is existing content presented in the new app? Would we need to change anything? How do we access / make available the new features?
The new features sound fantastic but it would have been nice to have some warning. I appreciate that Apple has to keep specific details about developments confidential but it's slightly disconcerting that iTunes U administrators were not forewarned about this new development and that there has been no mention of it on this forum. Also - and at the risk of sounding like a broken record - it really would be helpful for iTunes U administrators to have a private forum (perhaps an add-on to Public Site Manager) where we could discuss issues and share ideas and best practice etc.

Greetings Tom;
I watched the Apple's Keynote presentation and I'm amazed! I'm really excited about the possibilities this opens up for educators. I, like you am still processing all of the information and sorting out the possibilities.
Did you get the email about the Webcast on Wednesday the 25th at 10:00 AM PT that's going to cover the new iTunes U Corse Manager and how to publish through iTunes U Site Manager? Hopefully this is available to you in the UK. We'll keep in touch. All the best...

Unfortunely, all movies and songs purchased in iTunes will be lost...you'll have to purchase them again! Any applications you've purchased, you can download again for free.
Music Rescue is a program you can use to transfer any and all data (music, movies, pictures..) from your iPod to your computer, and iTunes.
