HT201269 If my current ipod is broken, would i still be able to transfer music, photos,etc. to a new ipod?

I would like to transfer content from my old ipod to a new one, but my old ipod has a broken screen. The ipod is still functional but will not let me put in my passcode. I've already read about how I need to back up my old ipod before I transfer content to the new ipod, but as I have explained, I can't do that because I can't enter my passcode to get into my ipod. Would it still be possible though to transfer content from my old ipod to a new one? If anyone could help me with this that would be great.
Thanks

If you have iCloud backup turned on, the iPod will automatically backup to iCloud one daily wihe charging an if it has an interent connection. Thus, it iCloud backup is on and the iPod is connected to an internet connection, charge the iPod and then restore from iCloud backup.
iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud
Otherwise you will have to restore from either an exiting iCloud or iTunes backup

Do you have a backup of that computer?
Easiest way is to restore that backup to your new computer.

Because it is sync'd with the library on your old computer.

I have a Windows PC with iTunes and an IPod Touch. I would like to be able to sync music in two areas. Would the Airport Extreme accomplish this? And, if so, are there step-by-step instructions somewhere?

No, it will sync the ipod to the content of the MBA which presumably has nothing on it (= erasing content of iPod and replacing it with nothing).

do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

I've lost my iPod Touch. Should I erase everything off of it? And if I do, would I still be able to locate it with 'Find my iPhone' app?

If you want to track it, then put it in Lost Mode. If you erase it then you can't track it.

I have an old iphone 4 that is broken and i would like to get it replaced. i opened the back of the phone and took it apart and now it wont turn on. would i still be able to get it replaced?

I got my phone last may and then i had another upgrade this past december. I completely broke the old iphone 4, but it has more space on it for movies and such so i would like to get it replaced. would i still be able to get it replaced even though it is broken and all the pieces were taken out of it?

No. Once you or any other unauthorized person opens/disassembles the iPhone, Apple will no longer touch it.

You copy it from one computer to the other.
Type "move itunes library" into the google search bar.
You have posted in the iphone forum.

I would like to be able to update my photo collection dynamically

I have a photo album that goes through a sequence of same
sized photos. However when I want to change the photos I always
have to go into flash and change stuff which is time consuming. I
would like to be able to update my photo collection dynamically by
just changing the files in the folder in my computer called images.
The .swf file would respond to this by showing the new sequence of
files in this folder. This would save me much time.
thnks very much for any advice.

you can use an XML file to grab the images, and flash can
parse them out and display them, then when you want to make a
change, you could either rename the photo the same as the old one,
or update the XML file.

Is it possible to reorder an iPhoto book 2 years later? My hard drive crashed and the photo book is no longer in my iPhoto but Apple printed it for me before the crash. Would Apple still be able to print another copy?

For future books you might consider doing what I do: create a separate library for each book andcopy the photos for the book from your working library to the book library with iPhoto Library Manager.
When the book is completed and ordered burn the library package to a CD, DVD or external HD to archive it so it's available for editing and reordering at a later date if needed.

My MacBook Pro was stolen less than a week ago, and I'm not sure if the hard drive was wiped, if it was wiped would I still be able to find it with the findiphone app?

My MacBook Pro was stolen less than a week ago, and I'm not sure if the hard drive was wiped, if it was wiped would I still be able to find it with the findiphone app? Or would it be untraceable after it was wiped? I had alot of special things on my laptop, and I would hate it if I didn't find it, so I'm hoping it wasn't wiped and I will be able to find it soon, HELP ME IF YOU CAN PLEASE! ANYTHING HELPS!

If that drive was erased, you should have received a confirmation email.

i am sorry, i am new to mac plis

I would certainly back up everything to an external drive, preferable a bootable clone using CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper! before installing Lion.
You shouldn't have to reinstall yopur apps though.

I just switched from a blackberry to a new iPhone 5 S - I would love to be able to add my address book to the new iPhone. How do I do this easily without having to manually add each no.?

Unless your carrier doesn't have the required SIM card size, you can get a new SIM card from your carrier. There is usually no charge for this.
If you don't have an Apple iCloud account or if you do being accessed on the iPhone with contacts turned off for over the air syncing, you should be able to transfer contacts from the Address Book app on your Mac via the iTunes sync process. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
If you have an iCloud account, you can sync contacts over the air with the Address Book on your Mac. After confirming your contacts are available with your iCloud online address book - checked by logging in with your iCloud account using a browser on your Mac, you can then turn Contacts on for over the air syncing with your iCloud account settings on your iPhone and your contacts will then be available there and kept synced automatically over the air between your iPhone address book, your iCloud online address book, and the Address Book on your Mac without having to sync with iTunes for this.

How do I transfer music, videos, etc from my IPad to my IPod or vice versa?

How do I transfer music, videos, etc from my IPad to my IPod or vice versa?

You can copy them via your computer's iTunes - you can't connect an iPad to iPod for direct transfer, though if you iOS 5 set up on both devices and iCloud enabled you might be able to re-download some of your iTunes purchased music on the other device.

Apps are associate with your iTunes Store account, which is not necessarily the same thing as your Cloud account. They can be the same or different, it's up to you.
No matter, the apps will always be associated with the Store account you bought them on.

You need to synce the music from your iTunes library to the iPod. See:
