    How to put Ipod Shuffle I into diskmode ?

    When connected, in iTunes click on shuffle icon in Devices, then click on Settings tab. Scroll down and click the square in front of "Enable disk use", the adjust slider for amount of flash memory to reserve for data. Click Apply, and you're done!
    When you use iPod shuffle as a disk, the status light on the front of iPod shuffle blinks orange continuously, and the iPod shuffle disk icon appears on the desktop on the Mac, or as the next available drive letter in Windows Explorer on a Windows PC. Drag files to and from iPod shuffle to copy them.
    Ejecting iPod shuffle Important: If the iPod shuffle status light is blinking orange, you must eject iPod shuffle before disconnecting it from your computer. If you don’t eject iPod shuffle before disconnecting it, you could damage files on iPod shuffle.
    To eject iPod shuffle:
    Click the Eject (C ) button next to iPod shuffle in the iTunes Source list. If you’re using a Mac, you can also eject iPod shuffle by dragging the iPod shuffle icon on the desktop to the Trash.
    If you’re using a Windows PC, you can eject iPod shuffle by clicking the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray and selecting your iPod shuffle.

  • How to put ipod 3rd generation on the disk mode manually?

    how to put ipod 3rd generation on the disk mode manually?

    I am having this problem as well. I've tried dozens of times at this point. I can produce the apple icon but when I release and press play+select it just reverts back to the red x. The red x is the whole reason I'm trying to get this into disk mode. I need to reset it but I can't until it is in disk mode. I've tried the flat surface, one finger etc etc but disk mode still eludes me. Any other thoughts?

  • How to play Ipod on another computer

    I want know how to play my I pod on another computer without losing my music or movies.

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Syncing Music to 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

  • Old imac hard drive crashed... how to put ipod tunes into new imac's itunes

    I'm sure this is something that's been revisited a number of times already... My "old" imac (2 years old -- yes I'm ****** but let's not go there) hard drive ceased living. I literally lost everything (had all data backed up, whew!).
    Anyway, how can I put my itunes library, which is on my ipod, onto my new itunes on my new imac?
    Thanks in advance for your help, Craig

    You can't do this using regular Apple software (it's designed to work in one direction only). However if you Google "transfer from ipod to itunes" several helpful links come up with utilities you can download to do this.
    But if you have protected music on your iPod, do remember to "authorise"" your new HD first.

  • Reinstalled computer - How to put ipod tunes into itunes library?

    Hi sure there is loads answered this but i couldn't see exactly what i needed so apologies if i am repeating but i have a headache ><
    My laptop suffered a terrible virus and i had to format my HD. Now everything is reinstalled phew
    However, my ipod still has its music on it, i want to put that music back onto my laptop via my itunes library.
    I am worried that by using sync i will erase all the ipod music. as 'sync' will sync the ipod to the (Empty)Library.
    I need to sync the music on the ipod to the Library, so I will have my original Library from before back!
    Hope this makes sense, thanks for any help

    You can't sync or drag your non iTMS music back directly from an iPod to iTunes. The transfer of non iTMS content is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
    If you prefer something more automated then there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for these, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

    The transfer of purchased content to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7, look under under File>"Transfer Purchases from iPod". A paragraph on it has been added to this article: How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    If your iPod is set to update automatically you just need to take care when connecting back to your computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. Don't uncheck Sync Music it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting: Managing content manually on iPod
    Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up in case you have problems again. External drives are comparatively inexpensive these days and you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.

  • How do i add songs to my ipod from another computer without losing the music i already have on it from the original computer?

    i want to connect my ipod to a friends computer to get some of her songs on my ipod. every time i do this tho it deletes the songs i already had on my ipod from the original computer. how do i get this to work? please help

    When you connect the ipod and are prompted to erase and sync....just click cancel.  Then click the ipod name below devices in the itunes source pane.  From the ipod summary screen you want to check manually manage music and videos under the options tab.  Apply the changes and you are now set to manually sync.  Which means you just drag and drop the music you want to sync to your ipod below devices in the itunes source pane.   Refer to this for more detailed instructions:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
