I am rebuilding my iTunes library, but still have all the old content on my iPod Classic. I have just download some songs from the iStore and want to add them to the iPod, BUT when I try to sync it asks if I want to delete all content from the iPod and add only the material that I have just downloaded from the Store. I do not want to lose my old content, because it is very extensive.
You are trying to sync to other than the one iTunes library you can sync to. You can copy music from multiple library/computer if you use the manual method of syncing. That method is described here
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
If you want to make this computer/iTunes library your syncing computer/library you have to restore the iPod on this computer/library. Restoring erases the iPod.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
To copy other music to the computer see:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
BTW this is the iPod touch forum

Why does iTunes drop many songs from an album and will not add them back?
iTunes regularly droping songs/tracks out of albums I've previously added to my library. The files are present in the album folder, but if I delete the album from the library and add it back, it still will not include the previously dropped files. Sometimes I can add them individually using "Add Files" instead of "Add Folder". This is a real pain in the backside, since when I play any album in my library, I can't be certain that all the songs/tracks will be played.
Are you burning as mp3 CD or Audio CD?.
If mp3 CD - then iTunes may remove the .aac audio files. (Just a thought) -

So i went to buy some stuff from apple store and it asked me to created apple id which i did. when i went to get the ilife items such as garage band iphot iMovie the button said accept. when i clicked it. it said the following ..

You should be able to just place them in your Books library in iTunes and check to ensure that your Book library is configured to sync to your iPod when you sync your iPod to iTunes.

i have downloaded some songs from the internet and saved it on my desktop. but i do not know how to import the songs from that folder to itunes.
Just drag the song(s) to iTunes, if they are one of these formats (wav, m4a, mp3, mp4, wma etc) and they will appear under Music library.
If you have lots of music files, put them in a folder and go iTunes menu FILE, Add folder to library..... to add this folder at one go. -
I just got a new iPhone 4 and i tried to download some songs from my itunes account onto my phone and it bricked my phone! So I can't use my phone, it's locked. It shows a plug going into an adaptor frozen on my phone. How can I resolve this problem? I got my phone at Verizon yesterday so I went back to see if they could help me today and they didn't know anything about it at the Verizon store. Theyy said to try IMac store here in town...
Ask the Verizon store to exchange your iPhone for a different iPhone 4.
UPDATE - Sure, try ckuan's solution first. Then use mine if that fails.

I asked at the Apple store and they said I could use any camera. When I look at the cameras on Amazon they seem to all be Windows based so I am confused. Any suggestions?
We've used the Logitech quickcam Vision Pro for Mac on our mini, with 10.6, and ichat, which has worked well. Looks like it's discontinued, however, a number of sellers on ebay are selling them new for $60-$70.

when i download a game from app store and start to play it my macbook starts to heat up very quickly making me to delete the games in order to come to normal.why is that?i mean i wont be able to play any games ? because i tried that not only with one specific game but with many
The MBA may be used for light game playing. It's not designed for heavy games that demand lots of CPU and GPU power. So you need to determine if the demands of the games meet what the MBA can deliver. It's also possible you are trying to play a game version that is not wholly compatible with the version of OS X in use. This can cause issues with compatibility. It's important that your MBA possesses the minimum hardware needed for a game. Note that having the minimum hardware does not mean that the MBA is suitable hardware.

Press and hold the power button until the Mac turns off. Turn it back on. -
I am trying to take songs from my PC AND My Itunes account and send them to my husband's IPOD TOUCH First Generation BUT I don't want to change my whole ITUNES account that is already on my computer. When I plug HIS Ipod Touch into the PC, my ITUNES account wants me to CHANGE the DEVICE Name on the account and I don't want to do that. I only want to share SOME of my songs on my Itunes account and send them to h is IPOD TOUCH? Is this possible and HOW! Thanks a ton!!! I "checked" off the songs that I want to send but that's as far as I get before it asks me to change the Device Name?
Is his iPod usually synced to a different iTunes library/computer? If so, that would explain the message iTunes is giving you. An iPod is designed to sync with only one computer/iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with a new library, the iPod's contents will be erased and replaced with what is in the newer/different iTunes library.
So if there is content you would like to add to his iPod, simply transfer it from your iTunes library to his.

I have downloaded some tunes form I Tunes and they are on my I Pad,but when i plug my Pad into my car system it does not show the albums i have downlaoded .
This means iTunes can no longer locate the file in the location its specified in under the Location section of the Summary tab of the track's Get Info window in iTunes. See here for more information.

Hi
I have downloaded 6 songs from Soundcloud.
iCloud doesn't recognise them and i have the 'Waiting' iCloud symbol.
How can i change those icons as i can't put any of the songs into a playlist?Sounds like you are trying to manually delete content from your device via iTunes. If so, you'll want to make sure your iPod is set up for manual management by enabling the Manually manage music option from under the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes.
