HT4557 iPod is not an option in settings

We're trying connect our iPad to apple tv but it's not working. No "iPod" option in settings. Please help!

"iPod" is replaced with "Music," but I'm not sure how that will help you AirPlay (which is what I assume you are trying to do).
What you want to do is open the Music app, and next to the controls tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV.

HT4623 I am trying to update an iPhone 4 but I can't follow the instructions above because "software update" is not an option under settings/general. How can I update my phone?

I am trying to update an iPhone 4 but I can't follow the instructions above because "software update" is not an option under settings/general. How can I update my phone?

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

HT4623 There is not an option in settings to update my software

I am trying to update the software on my original iPad and used the following steps: click on settings, general and then there is no option for update software. Any suggestions on how else to update?

Start iTunes on the computer you normally sync with. Check for updates to iTunes and if there is an update download and install it. Then restart your computer and start iTunes on your counter. Then connect your iPad. In the left column of iTunes on your computer select your iPad. In the right column select General and then click n check for updates. You might not even have to check for updates as you will be notified that an update is available. Follow the prompts to update your iOS.
After you have pdated to the current version which is iOS 5.1 you will be able to do subsequent updates directly on your iPad.

How do I upgrade operating system when I don't have the software upgrade choice in my settings area?

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

My new 160gb ipod classic missing compilation uncheck option in settings

Help just bought a 160GB classic,(i previously had a 60GB classic)my old ipod had an option to uncheck/check compilation in settings>compilations (just under the EQ option) my new ipod does not have this option although the manual and help forums seem to say this is where compilation uncheck/check option is. Is there a fix for this or do I take back to the seller?

Fair enough - I had hoped we were just at cross purposes as to where to look for it on a newer model. What firmware build is the device? I'm assuming it's the September 2009 160Gb with Genius etc. I don't have one in my hands just now but I thought I recalled the menus being the same in this respect. Will check on youngest's iPod later...
In the meantime I'm still not clear which "version" of the option you want, other than it obviously isn't the one you've got at the moment. Which did you want, all artists or just some? One cover for each different combination of album and artist in Cover Flow or just the one? If Apple have changed the way it works on your iPod model, which they have done on the iPhone/iPod Touch, then you may to look at making some changes to the way you tag your library, or return this model and buy an older one on eBay.

Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.

IPod icon not showing in settings so can't set up homeshare, how do I sort

Trying to set up home share but in settings there is no iPod icon has anyone any ideas,thanks

On iOS 5 + the iPod app has been renamed as Music, and if you are connected to a network you should get an option under Settings > Music for Home Sharing where you can type in your iTunes account and password - if you are not connected to a network then you won't get that option. If you've also enabled it on your computer's iTunes, and iTunes is open on your computer, then you should see an option under the More button at the bottom of the Music app for accesing your Shared library

Changing iPod settings on iTunes when iPod is not connected

I got an iPod nano 2GB and would like to change the settings on iTunes without connecting my iPod to it. I don't want iTunes to open when I connect the iPod and want to be able to use it as a disc. When the iPod is not connected there is no option showing on the iTunes screen to make the changes. Can anyone help please?

You have to connect the iPod to change it's settings. If your iPod is set to update automatically you can use a keyboard command to prevent it syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes 7 installed hold down the Control and Alt keys (or Shift + Ctrl keys in older versions). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes 7 Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows

Ipod Shuffle will not let me change settings:

My iPod will not let me change the setting. Everytime I try to do so I get an error message saying: The iPod cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found. not sure why it says this and any help would be nice. Thanks

first the biggest one: the ipod will not let me chnage it's settings (it syncs, but when you go to the device panel all the options are grey and I can't change them)- what to do?
You change the settings on the iPod via the summary screen which automatically opens when you connect the iPod. I do not know what the "device panel" is.
2-for some reason i can not see the radio option in my ipod's main menu even though I have put it there several times, and am still unable to play any radio.
The radio option is only selectable when you have connected the radio/remote accessory (which is purchased separately). There is no built in radio on the iPod.
3- my ipod has been having a bit of a delay issue lately, just a few seconds i which it is stuck
Have you updated the iPod to the latest firmware?
4-i am inly able to put soem of my video podcasts on my ipod why is that?
Don't know. Where are these video podcasts from? Not everything you get from the internet is iPod compatible.

How do i update the software on my ipod touch? i went to settings, then general, but theres no option called software updates.

You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device. To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch. So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.

I'll assume you have calendar sync set correctly when you connect the phone to iTunes and click on the Info tab, but please check that.
Next go to Options in Outlook, the Other tab then click *Advanced Options*. Click *Com Addins* and make sure the iTunes addin is checked.
Now in Outlook go to Help/About and click *disabled items*, and make sure the iTunes addin is not listed.
If all of this is OK, or it still doesn't work after setting these correctly, go to iTunes Edit/Preferences Devices tab and click *Reset Sync History*.

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

"view content preview in thumbnails" option is not available in view settings for "finder" for one user

I hope this discussion can be revived. I have the same problem. There seem to be quite a few Japanese sites that don't bother specifying their encoding. Perhaps they are older and from a time when it was not necessary to adhere to standards. Examples: http://www1.plala.or.jp/CUE/cave_yozawa.html, http://chigaku.web.fc2.com/saitama/sanchi/youzawa/youzawa.html. Happy to upload screenshots, but how?
Is there a way to tell Safari what encoding to use if the web page fails to do that?

When I open TB, under "Accounts", it only shows the option "Create a new account". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.

When I open TB, I no longer see any information about the TB account I've used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only "Accounts" -- "Create a new account - Email, Chat, Newsgroups, Feeds". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.
Also the main menu does NOT show "Email - Read messages, Write a New Message" or "Advanced features", etc..
The actual emails pertaining to the TB account I've used for years are still present under the "Users --> xxxxyyyy --> AppData --> Roaming --> Thunderbird' folder.

I was wondering why the iPhone 5 has the option for a battery percentage and the iPod touch 5g doesn't? I mean... they are almost both the same thing... just the iPod does not have the phone.

I was wondering why the iPhone 5 has the option for a battery percentage and the iPod touch 5g doesn't? I mean... they are almost both the same thing... just the iPod does not have the phone.

One likely reason is the % battery is not that accurate because of the smaller battery capacity in the iPod compared to iPhone and iPad. Users why use a % battery app post that the % reading changes a lot.
