I can no longer see or manage my music when my ipod is connected to itunes. The "on this ipod" button is no longer an option in my toolbar. How do I fix this?

After my last itunes update there is no longer a button in the tool bar for me to view what is on my ipod. I can see screens that allow me to sync but I can't see any of the content, which means I can't add or delete anything without doing a full sync. I have always had my ipod set to manually manage my music because I don't want my entire library on my ipod (I also don't think it would fit). I don't want to have to restore my ipod as I have spent a lot of time setting up playlists that I use for work that aren't in my main library. What happened to the "on this ipod" button that was in the tool bar a week and a half ago? Is there a new route to get to view my ipod content? I have spent a lot of time trying to figure this out and now I'm just getting angry. I buy apple products because they are supposed to be straight forward and easy to use... is this changing?

Go to the View menu and turn on the Status Bar. If you don't see the menus, go to the small icon with the arrow at the extreme upper left and select "Show Menu Bar":
Regards.

Reset your phone, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it then you need to restore your phone in itunes, Connect to itunes, right click on your phones name to the left, then click restore from backup. That providing you have backed up your phone recently.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a sync key, and have a new computer terminal, but when I enter the account details I created, it syncs nothing with my new computer. How do I fix this? There is nothing showing up when I sync with the sync key from my old terminal.

I recently had to do a wipe on my laptop. I saved the sync key but there was no mention of a sync account prior to doing the wipe. I saved the key and when I did the wipe it asked me to make an account, which I had not done, but now I am seeing no where to put in a sync key code. did they make them unusable now or something?

You are probably trying to use old Sync with Firefox newer than version 29,
and they did make old Sync unusable on fresh installations of newer Firefox.
You can uninstall that newer Firefox, then install Firefox 29 from here:
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/29.0.1/
Apply your sync key code, then update that installation to current Firefox,
then migrate to new Sync:

HT4623 After my last iOS update my iphone 4 no longer syncs with my macbook. How do I fix that?

After my last iOS update my iphone 4 no longer syncs with my macbook. How do I fix that?

Is the device recognized in iTunes? What happens when you try to sync? What have you done to try and correct it? Before anyone can recommend anything, they need to know a little more information.

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, and I have Aperture 3.1.3. Now after I import pics from my camera I get a dialog box so large I can't get to the eject card button. I have to force quit Aperture. How do I fix?

I just upgraded to Snow Leopard, and I have Aperture 3.1.3. Now after I import pics from my camera I get a dialogue box so large that I can't see the eject card button. Consequently, I can't get rid of the dialogue box without having to do a force quit on Aperture. How do I fix?

I can drag the dialog box, but I can't move it up far enough to get to the eject card button. The dialogue box contains all the jpeg Numbers I am trying to upload. It has never done that before. It used to be just a smal dialogue box with no jpeg numbers in it.
It is even difficult to get to the Finder with the Dialague box is open. I have to force quit aperture.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

- Charge the iPod for half an hour. Then reset the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- if still not working, connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod, restore the iPod.
- If still problem, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. For recovery mod see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?

I"m far, far, far from a techy! Thanks!

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you dod not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
This is covered in the manual and you can get that here:

Hello Kierasully,
I would start your troubleshooting with the article below for issues of not being able to log in to your Mac. Start with booting up in to Safe Boot as well as resetting PRAM on your Mac. If that does not work, then verify the hard drive with booting to the Recover HD and go to Disk Utility to verify it.

- Go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

It looks like you may have to reinstall itunes.
There are multiple things you should uninstall (and in a certain order) according to apple.
Also, even thought your music and itunes library information should not be affected in the uninstall, I would strongly recomend backing it up. Go to where you keep your music files and make sure you back up everything in the folders "itunes" and "itunes music".
The directions for the reinstall are here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 They include what to uninstall and in what order. This is for itunes 9 and earlier, but I think it is the same for itunes 10.

I can no longer see or manage my music when my ipod is connected to itunes. The "on this ipod" button is no longer an option in my toolbar. How do I fix this?
