How to manually update ipod?

I have chosen the option to 'Manually manage music and videos'. Previously I updated my ipod by dragging new songs from my itunes library and dropping them in my ipod library. However, since I have updated to itunes 7, I can no longer see my ipod library on itunes, instead I only see the summary of my ipod. How can I manually update the ipod?

Next to the iPod (on the left) there should be a little disclosure triangle.
Click on it so that it points down.
Underneath your ipod you should now see the word "music". Click on that.
Now do you see the songs on your iPod?

  • How to "manually" update Xperia S LT26i 2.3.7 build number 6.0.A.3.67, 73, .75 & .76

    Hi,
    I would like to be able to update my phone's software from Android version 2.3.7 to the newest Jellybean update. However, when I go to the update centre on both my phone and laptop software it tells me that my phone already has the latest available application updates and system updates. I've read that Jellybean was released for this phone model (Xperia S, LT26i, 6.0.A.3.62) in 2013, so I'm curious as to why it won't find an update for my phone? I would really appreciate any help in this issue. Network is Vodafone Ireland, if relevant.

  • Manually Updating iPod

    If my iPod is set to automatically update when I connect to my computer, how can I change the setting to manually update instead. I have music that is no longer on my computer, but is on my iPod, and I don't want the iPod to ersase the songs on it when I connect to the computer.

    You'll eventually want to Transfer music manually
    But first, you'll want to Keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
    Another Easier Alternative:
    While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys in Windows (CMD + Option keys on a Mac). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes. The iPod will then appear in the iTunes source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto-sync and then you can release the keys. This action may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
    You can then ‘right-click‘ on the iPod icon in iTunes’ source column and select iPod Options, then check the box that says “Manually manage songs and playlists”. You can now manage your library without losing any songs on the iPod.
    Note: If connecting to a different computer than the ‘iPod’s Home Computer’, iTunes will ask you if you want to update your iPod and give you an opportunity to opt out. This will not happen if you connect to the ‘Home’ computer – iTunes will auto-sync without warning!. Best to know the difference.

  • Manually updating iPod on seperate comp

    Question, can I update my iPod with songs on a comp that is not my home one? I selected 'Manual Update', but if it'll still delete my songs that aren't in the Library, I don't wanna do anything. If the songs get deleted, I'll be in big trouble, cause I'm far away from home, and I still have a month left til I get back. I'm guessing that 'Manual Update' won't affect any of my current songs, but I just want some assurance.
    Thanks -

    as long it is in manual update mode before you plug it in, you will be fine. it will not delete any of your songs if it is in manual. you will be able to drag and drop files into your ipod without any problems.

  • Manually updating iPod - Does it update star ratings as well?

    I just bought a brand new 5G iPod, and decided to manually update it. So I have to click and drag songs to it. My question is when I connect the iPod, will iTunes automatically update any play counts / star ratings I've added to songs on my iPod, or do I have to do something special in order for those to transfer?

    when I connect the iPod, will iTunes automatically update any play counts / star ratings I've added to songs on my iPod
    No, it won't.... not if you're using manual updates.
    This only works if you are automatically updating your iPod.

  • Manually updating ipod nano

    I hav no idea wat this means,
    plz help.

    Which update button are you referring to?
    I am not aware of an 'Update Button' in iTunes, do you mean the Update iPod option in the iTunes 'File' menu?

  • Manually Updating iPod on two versions of i tunes

    I use i-Tunes 7 in work and an earlier version at home. Since updating my iPod manually in work I have been unable to drag any music on to my iPod at home.The music is from my own CD collection so it is not purchased and both versions are set to manually update.When I try and drag the folder I get a circle with a line through it as if this is not allowed. Is this because i have an earlier version at home? Is there any way around this as i dont have an internet connection at home.

    as long it is in manual update mode before you plug it in, you will be fine. it will not delete any of your songs if it is in manual. you will be able to drag and drop files into your ipod without any problems.

  • How to manually update itunes

    I just tried to update my itunes with the version released today.  It failed and now itunes will not boot.  How di U manually  update to latest versionN

    Hello, kenengeron. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would recommend uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components.  Below, I have included the article that covers the specific order that the programs need to be removed.  After the steps have been completed, attempt to install iTunes with a new download of the install package http://www.apple.com/itunes/.

  • HT4623 Do not have the software update area in my settings! How do I update iPod without that? Btw I have a 3G iPod! Does this make a difference? How do io do the update?

    Do not have software updates section in settings! How do I update my iPod without that?

    A 3G can go to iOS 5.1.1 and requires iTunes version 10.5 or later. If you have a Mac that requires OSX 110,5,8 or later
    Are you sure you really do not have a 2G iPod? Those can only go to 4.2.1

  • How to manually update PowerShell V3 build from CTP2 to production

    Hello,
    We have PowerShell V3 CTP2 installed on a  Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise.
    The server isn't connected to the internet. 
    How can I update PowerShell (and whatever else is necessary) to bring it up to the latest production version?
    $PSVersionTable gives the following:
    BuildVersion: 6.2.8158.0
    PSVersion: 3.0
    CLRVersion: 4.0.30319.296
    PSRemotingProtocolVersion: 2.103
    WSManStackVersion: 3.0
    PSCompatibleVersions: {1.0, 2.0, 3.0}
    Another server that had PS CTP2 is connected to the internet and (I assume) got updated with Windows Update to the latest PS. 
    For comparison, this is $PSversionTable on the updated server:
    BuildVersion: 6.2.9200.16481
    PSVersion: 3.0
    CLRVersion: 4.0.30319.18444
    PSRemotingProtocolVersion: 2.2
    WSManStackVersion: 3.0
    PSCompatibleVersions: {1.0, 2.0, 3.0}
    I couldn't find any hotfixes that would update PS. 
    Any help is appreciated,

  • How do I update iPod software B4 using w/Yamaha YDS-10 Uni Dock 2 see photo

    We purchased a Yamaha AV Receiver and after we purchased our iPod, the folks at Circuit City told us we needed to purchase the Yamaha YDS-10 Universal Dock for iPod. We can play music just fine, but can't get back to the main menu which begins with Music, Photos, etc. We can only get to the menu beginning with Playlists, Artists, etc. We called iPod help and they determine it was not an iPod issue and said to take the unit back and get a new docking station. I found the manual for the docking station and it states:
    It is recommended that you update your iPod software before using it with this unit (YAMAHA YDS-10). The update for the iPod software is available at the Apple website.
    I can't find the software update and would greatly appreciate any help/assistance anyone can provide. We just want to be able to view our photos and the occasional movie now and then. Thank you in advance for all your help.

    thanks for the suggestion. This was just a simple tutorial on doing a regular restore through Apple. I've tried that already and it doesn't work. I'm sure that Apple downloaded the iOS 5.0.1 (9A406) through my iTues. When iTunes tries to install the firmware on my iPhone, however, that's when the errors start popping up. When I try restoring in DFU mode, my iPhone gets stuck in rebooting over and over again.
    It seems like I'm getting some kind of error even before it starts putting any firmware on my iPhone. I've never got to the part where there is a progress bar underneath the apple logo. Any other suggestions?

  • How to Manually update Camera RAW? Error message keeps popping up.

    My Adobe updater is not working (keeps saying it's checking for updates, but finds nothing).
    I have done a fresh installation on CS6 design and web premium package today. Thus, Camera Raw needs an update for my Nikon D610 to be compatible.
    The error message given when trying to install Camera Raw 8.8 Manually is:
    Error opening file for writing
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS6\File Formats\Camera Raw.8bi
    Click Abort to stop installation
    Retry to try again, or
    Ignore to skip this file
    My system specifications:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
    Intel i7
    16gb RAM
    70GB HDD space available.
    Please help.

    I want to add that using the Nikon software can sometimes corrupt raw files. It is always best to use Windows Explorer to copy the files directly off the card. Card readers can also become corrupt, so try a different one. I'm not sure how you are transferring files, but though I'd mention it.

  • How to manually update Acrobat 9 in Windows 7

    In Windows 7, autoupdating  or  updating by Help>check for updater does not work.
    So I downloaded 5 incremental updaters from Acrobat download page.
    But none of them allowed me to updated.  Instead,  I got an error (see the attachment).
    Please advise me how to update those daters.

    Look carefully at the product that you are trying to update (the "About" selection under Help) and indicate the product and version you are using. Be sure you are talking about Acrobat and not Reader. The update link should work, but you indicate it does not. You would then go to the appropriate product update page and download ALL of the updates after your minor version. Then install them in order from the oldest to newest. If this does not work, then head back and do either a repair or reinstall of your original product (you typically do not need to uninstall first). Then try the updates.
