  • All-day events sometimes don't sync from iPod to Mac using Exchange Server

    I have an iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation, not sure) which syncs with my MacBook via ActiveExchange and the company's exchange server.
    I have been noticing that sometimes when I create all-day events on the iPod they don't show up in my Entourage-calendar. Even if I change their dates on the iPod or change them from all-day to a specific time. Nothing.
    I already switched off time zone support or what's it called although all time zones are on the same city.
    Any thoughts are highly appreciated. (And no, to be honest I don't think that it's a exchange-server-problem.)

  • HT1296 Sync from iPod to Mac

    I have all my calendars' information on my iPod and got a new computer. When I sync the iPod with iTunes, all my information is wiped. Is there a way to transfer the calendars from the iPod to the Macbook and not all the way around?

    Hi Rudegar, thanks for the answer but I'm not sure how to do that. I have all the files backed up, but I don't know if the calendars are or where to find the back up.

  • Itunes library disappeared, how to sync from ipod?

    I have had my 30gb ipod video for a few months now with no problems. Last night I sync up my ipod and everything was fine. This morning I open itunes and my library is completely empty, and all of my playlists are gone.
    I checked my music folder and everything was still there, including the library xml file. Unfortunately I did not back up the xml file, and while trying to remedy the situation itunes overwrote the file with an empty library, so now I have lost all of that data.
    I started going through the process of re-importing my music and re-creating all of my playlists when I realized that all of the play count, ratings and other information is now completely lost.
    Since my ipod has all of the most current information, is there some way to sync the information from the ipod to my computer?
    Thanks

  • How to sync from ipod touch

    how do i sync my ipod touch with music on it from a diferent computer without deleteing the music on it.

    You need to move your music from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computers files/docs/pics/music/etc for this very reason.
    What's more,you can refer this article about how to transfer or copy music from iPod to computer, which included an easy guide to work out that.
    Cheers.

  • How to sync from iPod to another IPod Shuffle

    Can I sync playlist from an older model iPod shuffle to a new 4th generation iPod shuffle without losing the playlist on the original iPod shuffle?

    If the songs on the old shuffle are in your iTunes music library, you'll need to sync the same songs to the new shuffle from your iTunes library.  You can't sync from one iPod to another iPod.
    If the songs on the old shuffle are not in your current iTunes library, you first need to off-load the song files from the old shuffle, add them to your iTunes library, then sync those songs to the new shuffle.
    You can't transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.

  • Can playlists sync from ipod to mac?

    the Mac harddisk crashed; I was able to restore Tunes by home share with a different Mac. However, Playlists were not on the different Mac. They are on an iPod -- if I sync the iPod with the restored Mac will the Playlists sync? It seems like they should, but.....?

  • Lost my hard drive. How to transfer from IPOD to MacBook -OR!- Match?

    I lost my entire harddrive on my W7 PC.  I have most (but not all) of my music on my iPod.  I just purchased a MacBook Pro, and iPhone 5, and subscribed to iTunes Match.  QUESTION: How can I transfer all the songs on my iPod, from the ipod up into iTunes Match?  In order to get those songs on ITunes in the new MacBook.  Or is there a better way?  Perhaps it is better to try and rip the songs off the iPod into iTunes and then up to iTunes Match?? 
    (Point of note - not all of these songs that I lost were from CD's, or from iTunes purchases.  Yes, many of them came from YouTube.  I mention it so as to save any misdirection people might offer as a solution)  Thank You!

    Hi Richail,
    Once you have selected your sync options in iTunes, such as what music or videos you want to transfer, the Apply button should be in the bottom right hand corner of the window. For more information on syncing iOS devices, you may find the following article helpful:

    Hi kimcinma!
    Your previous purchases are saved on iCloud even if you bought them on another computer. If you can't find them on your current computer, you might need to unhide them. Go to iTunes preferences, and click on Store Preferences. Then click the box for "show iTunes in the Cloud purchases". Then click on OK, and everything you've ever bought from iTunes on that Apple ID will show up in your library. You will need to download them from iCloud first before you can synch them to your iPod Classic. To do this, click on the little cloud with the arrow in it next to your song, and it will download to your computer. When you have the music that you want downloaded, plug in your iPod and synch away. Hope this helps!

  • How to sync my iPod to my iPad ?

    how to sync my iPod and My iPad

    Use the same Apple ID for all services like iCloud and sync them to the same iTunes library with the same sync settings.
    For initial setup you can restore the iPod from the backup of your iPad
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:        
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Not that unless yo use an encrypted backup yo will have to reenter all account passwords on the iPod
    Also, iPad-only apps will restore to/sync to the iPod

  • ITunes u doesnt sync from ipad to mac

    HI,
    itunes U doesn't sync from ipad to mac, it works from mac to ipad.
    I've all the software updated.
    if i subscribe a course in the ipad a can't see it in my mac after sync, if i subscribe on the mac i find the course in the ipad.
    how i fix it?
    thanks
    Gabriele

    I have exact same problem that will not resolve with all troubleshooting. Only downloaded content on device will sync; subscriptions without downloaded content on the iOS device will not appear on desktop iTunes at all after full sync of iTunes U.   Have sent a bug report to Apple and will hope that they fix the bug in the next release!  In solidarity.
