    how do you put the ipod into disk mode

    iPod nano (7th generation)

    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.

    If you are having difficulty putting your iPod into Disk Mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center. If you are still unable to put your iPod into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.

  • How do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    how do you put safari web pages into icloud with the safari iCloud button?

    What that button does is sync your tabs between your devices. So if you have multiple macs with Mountain Lion and/or devices with iOS 6 (once it comes out this fall) you can pick up where you left off. For example, let's say I have apple.com, nytimes.com, and facebook.com open on my mac, but I need to run. Later, if I need to use another computer in my household, I can just restore the tabs that I was using before on this other mac.

  • How do i put multiple albums into one huge album collection?

    How do i put multiple albums into one huge album collection?
    Some examples include: Linkin Park - Studio Collection, Michael Jackson - The Indisposable Collection

    Hi skullkrunch3r,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you "Get Info" on the tracks that are part of your collection, you can use the Compilation option in iTunes.
    In iTunes 8 and later, you find the option to mark multiple items as "Part of a compilation" in the Options tab of the Multiple Item Information window.
    See this article for more information on marking your albums as part of a compilation:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

    How do you put a PDF as a hyperlink into iWeb

    Hi, I have a similar problem, but this doesn't fix it.
    I want my website users to be able to download a pdf from my site (normally by right-clicking on the line). The web browsers (Safari/Firefox) simply allow you to view the pdf in a new window or tab, but it's not very reliable. Here's an example. Go to my site:
    http://www.cornerstoneguernsey.co.uk/cornerstoneguernsey.co.uk/Our_Menus.html
    and try to download a copy of this:
    2011:2012 3 part menu.pdf
    I know it used to work, but since the tons of upgrades I've done recently, now my customers are having terrible problems getting our menu!
    Many thanks in advance.

  • HT1296 How do you put all music on Ipod back onto a previously crashed computer in which the original music files were not able to be restored?

    Hi, HOW DO YOU PUT ALL MUSIC FROM IPOD BACK ONTO A PREVIOUSLY CRASHED COMPUTER IN WHIHC ALL MUSIC FILES WERE UNABLE TO BE RESTORED.
    My computer crashed a few months ago and my IT guys were not able to restore my music files.. at least I can't find them. When I log into Itunes, all of my music and play lists appear but when I click to play a song in Itunes on computer, it says the files can not be found. My Ipod obviously has all of my music but I'd like to add more (without deleting what I've got on there) and to copy back whats on my Ipod back to my computer. If I plug together and my computer sync then I will loose all music... needing detailed instructions please.

    from what i understand, the procecess is similar on both mac and pc, so i'll try help you here. have you set your preferences to "automatically update all"?
    Yes i have.
    if this isn't working, maybe try moving one that you are certain is in the correct format, manually. import it from scratch to your itunes, and then copy it to the ipod.
    If i click 'import files' the only files it comes up with are text file. Should it be doing this?' So the only files i can import are written documents :/
    If i select 'add files' it dosnt add them to my libary at all.
    I tryed what you said, i deleted my movies then loaded one into my libary which i no is in the right format but it still said that it is unable to put into my ipod.
    Thanks for trying to help by the way :]

  • How do you convert a quotation into a purchase requisition?

    How do you convert a quotation into a purcahse requisition?

    Hi Ganesh
    But from ME51N in shows selection varaint it show RFQ for creation of Requisition but when you drop the RFQ to header for creation , it is not working..
    Chek again.
    Kishor
    Hi Christopher
    See Purchase requisition creation can happen without vendor and price details as well.
    so once you have finalised your vendor and price ,you can put the vendor and price details  in PR and then PR can go further for approval...there will be some manual work ,,but I do not think any more option available.
    hope its logical,.
