How do I take 'em off, and how do I make it play????? HELP!

Ok so first of all does anyone know how to take songs off your iPod and store them on iTunes. Like I have songs loaded on my iPod that I want to take off but not delete!
Also I bought a CD off iTunes and it plays on my computer but only some of the songs from that CD play on my iPod, and then it just skips the rest.

If you want to delete songs from the iPod and keep them in iTunes or delete them from iTunes and keep them on the iPod you need to change the update option of your iPod to "manually manage music and videos". The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different, you can get details here:
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod - Syncing Music
Deleting songs or playlists from your iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod
Another way of deleting from the iPod and keeping the songs in iTunes ....... and keeping the ability to sync the iPod automatically is to choose the option 'Sync Music - Selected playlists'. Syncing selected playlists is just like syncing your whole library only on a smaller scale and more "selectively". When your iPod is is set to sync selected playlists it automatically picks up any changes you made to that playlist in iTunes since you last connected. Anything you added to the playlist will be added to the iPod, anything you deleted from it will be deleted from the iPod. In other words the iTunes playlist and the iPod are kept "in sync".
Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -My iPod for example (the dash will position it at the top of the playlists in Sources). You can make it a smart playlist that picks the songs for you or just a normal one and drag whatever content you want to have into the playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano. Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply. You can also sync from any existing playlists by choosing the same setting, you just need to make sure that the size of the playlists don't exceed the capacity of your iPod:

Syncing Music to iPod
*Also I bought a CD off iTunes and it plays on my computer but only some of the songs from that CD play on my iPod, and then it just skips the rest.*
Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

How do you take airplay off? it's not letting me play any sort of music, and I can't hear my ringer or anything., how do you take airplay off? it's not letting me play any sort of music, and I can't hear my ringer or anything.

My airplay popped out of no where , and it's not letting me play any music or watch any videos.
Also, when I get a text message or when someone calls me my phone just vibrates no sound or anything at all.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

Old 2005 Video iPod - How do I take music off and add to my iTunes music library? And battery life issues...

I bought my husband a Video iPod clear back in 2005. I bought the 30GB serial No 4V544C1WTXK Model number A1136. Yes, very, very old. However, it is an Apple product and therefore should be good forever right? We actually rarely used it then and have not used it in years. I got it out and brushed it off the other day. I have two questions:
1- I have some great music on it that I would like to transfer into my iTunes music library. Is there a way to move it from the iPod into my iTunes library?
2- It isn't really holding a battery charge even when it's been charging for hours. Is there anything I can do about that? Do I need to replace the battery? Is there even a way to replace the battery?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Given the age of the device and that fact that it wasn't used for a lengthy period of time, it's likely that the iPod's battery is shot and in need of replacement. Lithium-ion batteries need constant activity in order to maintain any sort of charge. However, all batteries generally deteriote over time and lose their ability to charge.
Is there even a way to replace the battery?
Yes. You can choose to have Apple swap the battery for a new one for the price indicated on this page.

You could also choose to send it to a third party service instead to have them swap it out at a much lower cost. A Google search for "iPod battery replacement" should give you a number of results to work with.

How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro and go back to using Snow Leopard

How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro because it has too much problems with the new operating system, I have talked to Apple support for both computers and still nothing happens I think they know that there's something wrong and they don't know how to fix it are there working on fixing it. So how can I put snow leopard Mac on my computer so that it works every time, there's a lot of good features in Lion but there's a lot of bad features and especially when it comes to turning on your computer and the memory that it has held so if one item is missing then it doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer to get it to work but I still like my Mac.

Hi Beth, welcome to the discussions!
Might be a good idea to also post over in the iPhoto forum if you haven't tried this yet as this is a common topic on their boards.
You may be able to get your iPhoto library back by rebuilding it. I've done it, but's it's been a long time, so don't want to mislead you on anything. The guys over in the iPhoto forum are real experts and should have some fixes for you.

Hi _em24,
It sounds like you are having an issue with the upgrade to your iPhone’s version of iOS, a frustrating situation to be sure. Let’s see if we can get you back up and running.
For basic troubleshooting of upgrades, and assuming you are using iTunes to do it, I would suggest using the steps in this article -

For iTunes purchases, you can transfer them back to iTunes by plugging your iPod into her iTunes library and choosing File -> Transfer Purchases.

I open the drive... and there are 4 folders, contacts, calendar, notes and photos (in photos there is a folder called thumbs and a file called photo database) Not to mention my music is nowhere to be found on the drive...
Is it even possible to take photos and songs off a ipod and place them on a computer?

If you only copied the photos as thumbnails (and it seems you did), you can't do this by enabling disk use and dragging the photos from iPod to computer so you'll need a program such as this one.
CopyPod Photo
Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion and found out it was not compatible with my HP printer (HP photosmart C5580) so I called Apple and asked how to get Mountain Lion off and Snow Leopard back on. The Tech told me to

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion. Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine. Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer. I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs. Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it. Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

You can't merge Apple IDs. What you could do is set up your phone to use the same iCloud accout you are using on your Mac. To do this, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (Contacts, Calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone. When everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Now add the iCloud account you set up on your Mac (with the same Apple ID) and turn syncing back on for Calendars, Contacts, etc. When prompted, you will probably want to choose merge, to merge the data on your phone with the existing data on this iCloud account.
