I AM FREAKING OUT RIGHTNOW I HATE MY FREAKING IPOD

i followed all the steps to put my songs on my ipod so that i could put them on to my new computer. then 1083 of my songs say tehres a problem with their files. but i didnt buy the songs or anything they're from CDs.
and i am freaking out right now because i dont want to put all the songs back on, it took forever to do it the first time

Songs that you ripped from a CD won't sync from an iPod back to a computer. It's not a flaw, it's the way it is. I suppose it's to prevent distribution of music. Anyway, there are quite a few programs that can help you accomplish your goal. I don't know whether you are using Mac or PC but for Mac there is a program called iPodRip and there are similar programs available for PC. Most are freeware or inexpensive shareware programs and the place I would recommend finding them is VersionTracker.com. Let us know how it goes.

  • How do I find out the spec of my old iPod ?

    How do I find out the spec of my old iPod ... I can't remember if it's 2nd or 3rd generation ... it's an 8gb, and that's as much info as I can remember/find in the 'About' area of the iPod ... is there a way to find out please?

    Transfer all of your content to the computer:

    Then try turning the device off and on again. I'd leave it off for 10-15 minutes, but that is up to you:

    If the item is still there, you may need to restore the device:

    Hope that helps . Worst case scenario, you may need to write into iTunes support to see if they can also help!!

  • The latest iTunes wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting updates which are no longer compatible with iOS 4.2.  I tried to restore to an earlier version with no success.  Is there any way to download the older versions of apps which are comp

    The latest iTunes software wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting newer releases of the apps which are not compatible with iOS 4.2.1.  I tried to restore the iPod to an earlier version without success.  Is there any way to download older versions of my apps which are compatible with my older iPod?

    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

  • I accidently pulled the cable out when syncing. Now my ipod automatically restarts after a few seconds. What do I do?

    Please help
    I accidently pulled the cable out when syncing. Now my ipod automatically restarts. What do i do?

    OK, in that case a restore should fix things:
    Disconnect the USB cable from the iPod touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
    Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
    If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode").
    Use iTunes to restore the device.
    If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.

  • Why are there faint static noises coming out of the speaker of my iPod touch

    There are faint static noises coming out of the speaker of my iPod touch fifth generation

    I Just got home and noticed it. It's coming out of the iPods speaker, Not headphones.
    For a few moments it was making popping noises. I shut it down and the static is still going. No sounds are playing.

  • The on/off button on my 6th gen iPod nano recently got spoilt and I sent it back to the shop for a repair/exchange a week ago. Now I have just found out about the new 7th gen iPod nano and I am wondering, can I get the new one as a replacement?

    No.  You can turn your 6G Nano in to be recycled at your local Apple Store for a 10% discount towards the purchase of a new one. Otherwise, your only other option would be to sell the iPod on Craigslist or eBay and use the proceeds from the sale towards the purchase of the new 7G nano.

  • There is grayed out pixels on my 2nd gen iPod Touch, how do I get rid of them?

    There's these grayed out pixels on my 2nd gen iPod touch. I did not apply pressure, I woke up one night and it was like that. I don't know how to fix it. Can someone please tell me what the cause was, and how I would fix it?

    I've written a script called DeDuper which can help remove unwanted duplicates. See this  thread for background.

  • Honda/Acura owners? My 2010 Insight EX hates my new iPod touch

    Santa Claus brought me an iPod touch for Christmas, and when I went to plug it in to my Insight's USB cable, the car said it was incompatible. I'm using a cheap iPod USB cable, but everything works just fine with my first gen nano. It looks like a lot of people are having this problem.
    Has anyone tried calling Apple or Honda about it?

    I am able to skip forward (or back), just can't change playlists or albums once I start playing.
    Occasionally (maybe once per month) I get an "Unsupported" error message on the Honda interface and it won't connect, so I have to remove the Touch and re-connect. Usually that works, but three times now since going to 3.x I've had to restore the Touch after getting that message -- the iPod freaks out even after disconnecting/re-connecting to the Fit's stereo. I do have a regular AUX input on the dash, so I'm trying to get used to using that instead of the USB connection. Not as convenient, but it beats being w/o my iPod for a day while it gets restored.

  • Sync is grayed out.  Can no longer sync iPod classic with iTunes.

    No longer able to sync iPod classic with iTunes.  The iPod is recognized, but sync is grayed out.  Any help out there?

    I have the same problem with my ipod nano. I downloaded tunes from my old pc. ITunes does not recognise it from my new pc and I cannot sync.

  • I have had an old computer that broke down, and I have a new one that I want to connect to Firefox Home on my iPod, yet using the same account. I have logged out of Firefox Home on my iPod, and I would like to log in again.

    I would just like to be able to log in to both devices using the account, but I cant add a device on my iPod because I have logged out.

    First go to your iTunes menu, STORE, login with your AppleID (if you have not done so), then Authorise your computer under the same STORE menu
    Now , go to iTunes store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the top right window. Go through all the tabs to download again for free.

  • I want to create a playlist on an old iPod Nano (I think it's from the second generation), but the computer it was originally linked to via iTunes died years ago.  How can I make a playlist out of existing songs on the iPod?

    Hello there,
    I have an old iPod nano which I think is from the second generation (model number A1199 if that helps) with software at the latest version it can accept, 1.1.3.  I wish to make a playlist out of the songs currently on the iPod, but I can't see any easy way to do that from the iPod itself.  The next logical thought is to do it through iTunes, but the iTunes that was originally synced to the iPod died several years ago now, so I can't access that to make a playlist through (it's a very old iPod).  I do have iTunes currently on this computer, but that's synced with my iPhone and stores different songs which I don't want to be mixed with those from the old iPod (due to the mostly nostalgic nature of the iPod songs).  Is there any way I can either create a new playlist from the iPod itself, or through iTunes without having to sync?  Also note that most of the songs on the old iPod were uploaded to iTunes from CDs and so aren't connected with any iTunes Login.
    Thanks for any help you can give.  Also, I sorta need to create this playlist ASAP so any advice you could give would be much appreciated

    The old iTunes library was lost with the old PC.  However, it all that music and content is still on your iPod there are many ways you can extract this content from the iPod and import it back into iTunes.
    Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time.  It will recognize the iTunes library on the new PC as a new library.  If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library.  So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
