I am trying to install a new iPod Shuffle and my pc does not pick it up.
My operating system is Windows 8.1 and windows 8 does not appear
in the list of operating systems.

You are referring to OFFICE 2010, not Windows XP or 7.
And which version of Windows do you have?
NEVER begin before you have a backup, ideally one you have tested and know works.
You don't really install Boot Camp, the Assistant is a partition tool utility.
You may just want Office 2008 for Mac.
If you need Office for Windows, perhaps run Windows in a VM like Parallels or Fusion.
Buy some backup drives and start using TimeMachine for one backup, then weekly backup with SuperDuper.
IF there is now a partition for Windows, all you need is to buy Windows, and I would recommend Windows 7 Home Premium (retail) which is about US$149.
Has nothing to do with free space. Office 2010 isn't to boot from. In fact, you can copy the disc to a folder (1.25GB) and run SETUP from there.

TS1369 this is the first time that i'm trying to connect my new ipod shuffle and my computer won't recognize the driver?

My computer won't recognize the driver for my Ipod Shuffle. This is a brand new ipod so why is there an issue?

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing iTunes and all other Apple software to see if that makes a difference? Use the exact instructions in this article.

I'm trying to sync my new ipod touch and it is taking forever to sync is this normal?

At what stage it is freezing?
There are six steps or so.
Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.

Can I add a new Ipod Shuffle and start a new playlist under my account if my original Ipod Shuffle is full?

If my original Ipod Shuffle is full, and I want to get a new Ipod Shuffle and start a new playlist, can this be done without compromising the first playlist?

Yes. I have a 1st gen shuffle, a 2nd gen shuffle, and a "bigger" iPod (plus an iPhone). They can all connect to iTunes at the same time, and be set up independently.
However, if your old shuffle is "full," you can delete song you no longer want on it and add new songs. You don't need to get a new shuffle, just to get more space for new songs.

I tried to set up my new ipod shuffle and a error message popped up saying Ipod not found cannot update. I can't sync my ipod now but it is showing on itunes. What should I do?

I bought a new 4th gen ipod shuffle and tried to sdet it up last night. I installed the latest itunes software and started to sync my ipod, but error boxes kept popping up saying ipod not found cannot sync. It was showing in itunes, then it would disappear, then it would come back. I am not very good with computers so I don't know what to do. Can someone help?

Do you have an iCloud backup? If you backed up your old phone to iCloud you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Erast All Content & Settings (which will erase your phone), then go back through the setup screens again and when prompted choose Restore From iCloud Backup. However your backup won't contain everything in your iTunes library (such as your music) so you'll need to be able to sync with your computer unless you purchased everything from iTunes and want to redownload it to your phone.

I'm trying to restore my new Ipod Touch and it won't respond.

I just got a brand new ipod shuffle and every time i plug it into my computer it shuts down itunes. What's going on?

Its a brand new 2 gb ipod shuffle and has never been connected to a computer before.

It would be interesting if it could "talk" to iTunes on a different host computer..if it couldn't it sounds like it would be some type of hardware problem, and would involve a warranty replacement of the new device.....wish I had a better answer...

New IPOD Shuffle and I can't hear my music I transfer from my computer

I transfer music on my Ipod shuffle. The light is green showing it have been charged up, but I am not hearing the music I see that the music were transfered from my computer to my IPOD. I am using the MP3 files. I press the volumne up button and still not hearing anything. I can see the files has been transfers to my IPOD. Please, can someone help me to hear my music.

Okay, that was the easy one. It is possible that you got a dud. However, I would go through the standard trouble shooting steps before returning it:

I am trying to sync my new iPod classic and "Sync" is grayed out

I have tried everything. Updated iTunes, verified my User id and password, nothing is recognizing the "new" used iPod. When I plug it in to the PC, iTunes is not automatically turning on. When I open iTunes, I go to Devcies, but "Sync" is grayed out. Also, the iPod has started to "Connect" to PC and then automatically starts the "OK to Disconnect" without me doing anything at all. I am floored at this point and don't know what else to try. My old iPod was the original Classic from like 2005ish and it's hard drive just went wonky. I never had an issue with it and iTunes at all.

Hello Aerogenous,
I know having a device you can't use can be frustrating. I have located an article that will walk you through a series of troubleshooting steps:
Restoring iPod to factory settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1339
Warning: Because restoring erases all the songs and files on iPod, back up any files you've saved on the iPod disk. All of your songs, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and games can be loaded back to your iPod provided that you have them stored in your iTunes Library. If you use the Nike + iPod Sport Kit, see this document for more information.
After you perform the restore, you should attempt to sync your content again. Keep in mind that iPods are meant to sync with one computer and one iTunes library.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

Loading new Ipod shuffle onto Itunes account

Okay, I have an Itunes account already and it is connected to my old ipod mini. I recently got an Ipod shuffle and when I try to load songs onto it the ipod shuffle won't recognize them because they are protected on my itunes account. I tried to change my account so it recognized my new ipod shuffle and itunes said I was not authorized to do that. Any suggestions?

You can load any number of iPod devices with one iTunes library and account. So that's not the problem.
Are you sure your shuffle is charged? Did you try plugging it into a different USB jack? When you look in "My Computer" is your shuffle recognized? Does iTunes see your shuffle and list it as a device when it's plugged in?
Does your shuffle need a software update? OR, can you restore your shuffle? Go to the settings tab and click on the "Restore" tab.
Are you trying to use autofill for your shuffle? Perhaps, to get started, you should turn off autofill and make a playlist. I have found that it is easier to make a playlist of all of the music I want to add to my shuffle. Then I pull this playlist on top of my shuffle and it is updated.
Your shuffle should play your purchased music with no problems!

Problems with new iPOD shuffle

Just got a new iPOD shuffle, and can't get it to work. i followed all the troubleshooting directions (worked on it for about 2 hours, twice)with the same problems. Updated the software version, restored the settings, no help. I copied all my CD with no problem, and the PC plays them perfectly in iTunes. Have the follwing errors. I think this is just a bad unit:
1. "Cannot read or write to disk"
2. "Unit could not be restored. Unknown error occurred" (1418).
3. "Unit could not be restored. Unknown error occurred".

Any ideas??

Try to restore it with Apple's restore software:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305204
They recommend using this if itunes cannot restore the ipod.
Another ideas I ran across when solving an error (Windows cannot load installer for volume. Contact your hardware vendor) I was getting, in case the above didn't work:
When you plug the device in have my computer open. When you see the device (F:?) right click on it and do a quick format. That apparently cleared up a lot of user's problems.
If itunes opens before you do this it won't work or will disappear from my computer.
If this doesn't work, did you get any error warnings when you plugged it in that could be causing it?

Tried to install a new game but got error message "You can't open the application "XIII Install" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I have since read that Yosemite doesn't have the program. What can I do?

Tried to install a new game that I bought (Xiii) for my MBP. All system req have been met and exceeded, however when trying to install it I get an error message saying "You can’t open the application “XIII Install” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
I have since read online that the operating software Yosemite has got rid of PowerPC applications, meaning I can't install my new game.
Is there anything simple that I can do to get this game to work. I'll be gutted if not as I have opened the game therefore the shop will not give a full refund, I'm sure .
Regards
Simon

A lot longer ago than that. PowerPC apps haven't been supported since Lion, 10.7.x.
You may have just purchased the game, but the developers obviously haven't kept up to date with the requirements for newer versions of the Mac OS.
You have three options, depending on how old your Mac is.
1) If it were ever able to boot directly to Snow Leopard, you could create a separate partition and install SL onto that partition. Make sure to turn on the option during the installation to install Rosetta. That is OS X's PPC emulator.
2) If your Mac is too new to install Snow Leopard, then you can purchase and install Snow Leopard Server within a VM, such as Parallels, VirtualBox, or Vmware.
3) Use a separate older Mac for running outdated software.
