How do I switch my ipod classic and ipad mini from desk top computer to laptop?

I bought a new laptop so I would like to do away with my desk top computer. When I tried to sync my ipod to itunes on my laptop it gives me a message that it is synced to another computer. How do I switch it without restoreing it? And my ipod too?

  • I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod"

    I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod" - I've had the adapter for several years and I think it's ok for my ipod touch but since it pre-dates both of these products I want to try and make sure it's ok to use with them before I do use it. Thanks.

    If iTunes does not see your iPod then your only hope is a data recovery company. Not cheap.
    However, you may be able to get some photos by:
    Photos
    - If they are in an iPod backup then restore another iPOd, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    - If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:

    Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
    On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match

  • How can I migrate Adobe digital edition and its library from an old computer to a new one?

    How can I migrate Adobe digital edition and its library from an old computer to a new one?

    Pertains to a Windows machine..
    Definitely get other opinions on this. I last did this myself in 2010.
    The most important thing, is to make sure you have an account (which I think you must have, or you probably couldn't have posted here).
    As I recall, I downloaded ADE to my new computer, launched the software, authorized the new computer by supplying my login, and then just moved the 'My Digital Editions' folder to the new machine.
    Be sure to de-authorize your old machine after you have done all of this, or over time you could end up exceeding your 'simultaneous devices'-limit for accessing your materials. I suspect that *from within the app itself, while it is still installed on your old machine* may be your only opportunity to do this. It is certainly the best/easiest.
    Hey Internet! Have you done this more recently than I? If so, please chime in to make corrections or add detail.

  • How do I get my IPod touch and Ipad to play songs/albums downloaded from my Icloud correctly??

    I used ITunes match just fine.  But, tracks/entire albums play incorrectly - song plays about 1 minute, then skips to next song which plays for about 1 minute, etc.  This is true for both IPod Touch and IPad (1).  The same files downloaded from ICloud play fine on the computer and they also play fine on AppleTV.  I have deleted and redownloaded these files numerous times, which makes no difference.  Purchased music and some ripped from CD's play correctly on Touch and Ipad.  This also seems to be connected CDs that were ripped and reencoded at a higher version before uploading.  The files in question are now Matched AAC audio files.

    You would need to restore the backup of your iPad Mini to your iPod Touch, and the apps would need to be compatible with both devices.
    Restoring the backup to your iPod Touch will overwrite the data and settings with those contained in the backup so if you have anything on your iPod that you want to save, you would need to do that first.

  • How can I update my iPod classic that will not mount on iMac computer?

    I can't update my iPod classic from my iTunes on my iMac computer with OSX 10.9.  It will not mount or be recognized by iTunes version 12.1.
    I plug it into the USB port and it charges, gives the "Do not disconnect" symbol but the computer does not recognize or mount the iPod at all.  I haven't been able to update the music for years. I have four other devices associated with my Apple ID for automatic downloads. Is it too antiquated to upload any of my music from my computer to it anymore?

    Ahh! The plot thickens!
    I went thru the console and read the error logs. It appears that the .ipsw file does load.....I think. It's been years since I spoke computer....
    Here is what I got after double clicking the .ipsw file and iTunes opened:

  • Have multiple devices associated with one Apple ID: iPod Touch and Ipad Mini stopped sending/receiving iMessages and FaceTime all of a sudden

    This is the listing of what we have:
    Ipod Touch 4th Gen for daughter
    Ipod Touch 5th Gen for another daughter
    Ipad 3
    Ipad Mini
    Iphone 4S
    Iphone 4S
    For sharing/downloading convenience, all of these are linked to one apple ID. iMessage and FaceTime were working flowlessly when we set it up. Yes, there was a problem initially where some devices were receiving someone else's texts, but they were resolved when I went to Settings and chose a specific # or email address for each DEVICE (so there's no overlapping)
    All of a sudden, my daughter's Ipod Touch 4th Gen started having problems sending messges. Sending bar will go up to the end then stop right before it gets completely full--end result, message not delivered. I tried to facetime her, but nothing happens. Sometimes when I try facetiming ipod touch 4th, I'd get an error message '____ is not available for FaceTime'
    I've confirmed the email address associated with ipod Touch 4 has been added and verified under my apple ID. I've tried restoring the iPod in iTunes, hard resetting the unit, turning off and on iMessage/FaceTime... and still doesn't work.
    All our software is up to date. By the time I started thinking maybe ipod touch 4th gen is getting old, my husband's newly bought ipad MINI started having the same problem.
    This is really frustrating---help?

    We're screwwwwwed! Not THAT familiar to apple, just barely plugging along and dove in with two ipads and two ipod touches. Previous experience was just two ipods (160 GB) that I had to still rotate audio books out of every few months... well, for me. My wife doesn't use hers as much. ANYWAY, I lost a zillion things with the ipod classic since it didn't have a back-up option and many of the CDs I scrounged up when it first came out were already lucky to have survived college. 8 years later and the computer that had the original files had been replaced umpteen times. ipods failed and decided to quit being a tight wad. Not sure if these gifts are worth it yet.... well, two of them were.

  • How to hide  on my iPhone four and iPad mini?

    Every column says just swipe but when I do it on my new iPad it doesn't work! Neither on my iPhone, I'll admit it's jail broken but I don't see how it wouldn't work on my normal iPad I just got yesterday?! Please help!!

    Your post indicates you have used Cydia, which is a software application for iOS that enables a user to find and install software packages on jailbroken iOS Apple devices. Since your iPad has been jailbroken,  we can't help you in this forum. Best bet is to Google for answers.
    Plus your Apple warranty has been voided and the Apple Genius Bar/Support will not help you.

  • How can I unlock my administration account ? or How can I completely erase file accounts and administration accounts from my apple computer?

    So recently my sisters and my mother bought this used computer called a "IMac's IMac" . It cost $700 . This computer is great the only problem is ... There's a LOCK on the administrator's account . And we need the password so we can download "adobe flash player 11" without adobe there's no watching videos , playing online games , or even me editing photos for my photography class. If somebody could help me and my family with this. It would be really grateful !

    Hello:
    You need the original software installation disk to reset an administrator password.  If it was not with the used computer, contact the person that sold it to you.  If you have it, boot from that and reset the password.
