HT1386 My ipod and my itunes library are significantly different with the itunes library being smaller.  If I say "synch", is my ipod going to look like my library ( which I do not want)

For some reason my IPOD and my Itunes account appear to be greatly out of synch.  However I am afraid to lose everything on my IPOD.  Should I synch?

Use the manual method of syncing. You then only sync the iTunes you check to sync to your iPod. For how see the manual method here:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod

  • IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW

    IF YOU ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE DROID TURBO BEING SLOW ON WIFI JUST TURN OFF GLOBAL MODE!! DONT ASK ME WHY THIS WORKS BUT IT DOES.  I TOOK MY FIRST PHONE BACK TO THE STORE BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS DEFECTIVE BUT THEN MY REPLACEMENT DID THE SAME THING.  GLOBAL MODE IS WHAT THE PHONE IS SET TO USE OUT OF THE BOX.  I SWITCHED IT TO LTE/CDMA AND NOW IT WORKS FLAWLESSLY.  AWESOME

    I'm glad you had luck with this.  I have the same issue, and i've replaced the droid turbo 4 times.  I've tried it on 4 or 5 different wifi networks and it doesn't give me any type of speed at all. 

  • HT1926 I have tried to delete the latest itunes and get back to 10.7. Now I have nothing in my library. How do I get the freshly installed itunes 10.7 to sync with the itunes STORE, and get me computers library back?

    I just tried to delete the new itunes (Hate it & could figure out how to sync iphone any more), and I reverted back to itunes 10.7 64-bit. When I tried to use itunes, it couldnt read the library because it had been created by the newer version (why it didn't get deleted when I removed itunes I do not know), so I deleted a few itune library files that I found still on my computer. Now I have the 10.7, but nothing in it... no library items. How do it get the itunes to sync with the itunes store

    This is what you should have done...
    To roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the installer from here, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • When trying to save a site to bookmarks I keep being directed to a Yahoo page asking me to set up a new email address which I do not want. Help please

    I cannot save a web address to bookmarks. Every attempt diverts me to a Yahoo page asking me to set up a new Yahoo email account- which I do not want.

    Does the issue still occur if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
    How about with a new, empty profile? http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic%20Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    How are you adding a site to bookmarks (Ctrl + D, clicking star, Bookmarks menu, etc)?

  • When I click on many of the songs in my purchased song history I get the message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store." HOWEVER, when I search iTunes they ARE in fact in the iTunes store.

    This is occuring for both old and recent downloads.

    Hello jwight,
    It sounds like you are unable to download your purchased content, but you can find it without issue in the iTunes Store. I recommend signing out of your iTunes account with the following article:
    iTunes 11 for Mac: Manage your iTunes Store account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12299
    Then restart your computer, sign back in and try to download the purchase again.
    If the issue persists, I would report an issue to the iTunes Support team with the following article:
    How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1933
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • ITunes 10.5: Permission issue with the iTunes Library file...

    Ok all, I have a strange and potentially problematic issue. 
    Background: Recently upgraded to thee latest 10.5 iTunes along with OSX 10.7.2 and iOS 5 on my iPhone.  My iTunes library is large - almost 300,000 songs, but have not had any issues until after the upgrade - except for the sluggishness of the progam (which apprears to be normal once you reach a certain point) as well as limitations with Genuis which I've not been able to resolve in any version.  I also have a fairly elaborate Playlist setup which I've refined over the past couple of years.  My iTunes library resides lookly in the default location under Music and the Media Folder sits on 3TB external.  Note that everything has worked fine up until now...
    Anyway, this is just a quick background - and also to set the stage for any suggestions that might involve a 'random' rebuild of the iTunes library as it would involve a massive effort.
    Problem:  Very intermittantly while playing music I will get an error pop up "Itunes library cannot be saved. A folder was specified instead of a file".  Otherwise everything appears working - playcounts are updated and reflected in my SmartPlaylist while I pay, lyrics seem to be added as I play (via TuneText), etc - and all syncs fine with the iPhone. 
    Now if I shut down iTunes when this happens and try and reopen, I will get the error "The iTunes Application cannot be opened, an unknown error occured (13014)."  Now if I look at the permissions of the iTunes Library database it shows "You have unknown access".   Note the permissions of all other files are ok.
    In the past to correct this I've pulled back an earlier version of the Library from my Time Machine which of course is not ideal. I've also set up a parallel library about a year ago which can open fine (I use this other one to stage the music before importing into my main one in that the main is too slow to edit anything major). 
    So far I've tried Repairing Permissions and reinstalling the iTunes.app but the intermittant problem is not resolved.

    ****...After days of new issues, the problem returned again this morning!! Both the iTunes Library and iTunes Library.itl showing with unknown permissions.
    To answer your question whop, yes when I rebuilt my entire library, I started afresh and rebuilt my .itl file with all the playlists, etc.
    What is interesting with the problem I just noted now while writing this entry here, repaired permissions with Disk Utility and it corrected the unknown permission error.  I cannot see anything in the report though (below) that ties to these specifically being repaired.
    Not sure where to go with this....

  • I recently purchased a new macbook and am having trouble syncing my iPhone with the iTunes. It won't allow me to delete any of the music on my phone, so I am unable to make room for the new software upgrade. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does anyone know how to enable editing on a new computer? I only have an 8gb phone and over 4gbs of music, half of which I don't even listen to anymore. I really want it off my phone, but when I plugged it into my new macbook nothing would delete. My old computer barely turns on so I can't even plug it into the old one to delete anything. I hit the sync button on the new computer and that didn't help either. I'd really like to upgrade to the new software but don't have the room on my phone until this music/a few apps are deleted. Any help would be appreciated!!

    Here are two screen shots to show you what I am seeing.  The first screen shot shows it allowing me to select (highlighted in blue) my admin user (which is what I am locced in as).  The second screen shot shows it allowing me to select the "Guest" user (highlighted in blue).  However when I click on the user "Orion" nothing happens.  It will not change to highlight that user.

  • How can I disassociate my songs in the iTunes store from another musician with the same name?

    My songs in the iTunes store are showing up with the artist John Powers. That is my name. There seems to be another musician called John Powers, and our songs seem to be grouped together. I feel bad for the guy, as he seems quite clean-cut and my songs are all a bit... edgy. Is there any way to clarify that there is another artist also called John Powers, or will my songs forever be linked to his through our common name?
    Here's a link to the artist page.
    My songs are "Empire State of Meh," "Venereal Disease," and "Get Some Blow."

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

    You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours.  If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
    You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for).  You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
    You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.
