  • I want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

    i want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

    Please do not delete any files from the HDD without having a current backup.
    I'm not sure what you mean when you say you've "deleted all old libraries." Can you explain that?
    If all you are wanting to do is empty the iTunes library of all music, video playlists, etc. the easiest way is to quit iTunes and, in the Finder, go to ~/Music/iTunes and simply move the .itdb, .itl and .xml files to the trash. Launch iTunes again and the library will be empty.
    You should be prompted to add content, so you can let iTunes scan the HDD if you like.

  • Delete app from iPod Touch, but still shows up in iTunes

    I've deleted a couple of apps from my iPod Touch, but after a sync they are still showing up in the iTunes apps tab with my iPod plugged in. They are both unchecked, so that they will not sync, but I can't seem to delete the app itself from my computer. In the previous version of iTunes, you could manually delete an app from iTunes and it would be gone, not just unchecked.
    Any advice?
    Using latest version 9.

    Try going into your iTunes/Mobile Application folder (wherever that is on Win XP) and deleting the .IPA for that particular app. Thats how I permanently delete my unwanted apps as simply deleting them in itunes or on the touch desnt get rid of them completely and iTunes always trys to put them back in there as it stayed stored in my application folder.

  • How do i enable my disabled ipod touch 4th generation? ...I had just downloaded my first app when someone stole it. I asked people who might know where its at and luckily a friend was able to get it back for me. only problem was, it was disabled already!

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • How to manage a childs Ipod touch but still let them download apps without

    I have a son and daughter that are getting a ipod touch tomorrow or Friday depending when I get all the controls set in place so I have a few questions and if I post in the wrong forum then mods please move them to the proper forums if necessary. I am new to the forums and this will be my first post. Here we go.
    My Kids and I have always shared our music on our previous ipods which weren't touch ipods so we need to be able to share the music but I need to figure out a way they can share the music and still be able to download free applications and games and some paid stuff as well with their own Itunes money but I need to do all this without compromising my itunes password which will be needed to download the content from what I've seen by playing with the ipod touches they will get while I've been setting them up.
    Is this possible for them to share music but have their own application account or can I give them child accounts kind of like the xbox live where I can control them from downloading unless they have me present ?
    I do have one child that lives with her mom in the next town over and this is going to be a problem as we move forward because she will want access to the music as we move forward but its my understanding if we have the same account we sync off of that we can share apps as well , is this true or not ?
    If we keep my daughter on my account is there a way that she can share the music and have it on her computer at home without compromising my itunes cash loaded onto my account or my credit card info as well ?
    There are so many avenues and possibilities that it's hard to kind of network all these ideas into reality so thats why I turned to the forums where the power users are.
    If anyone can point me in the right direction this would be much appreciated.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    you can handle the app installation on each device by using the Restriction settings of the ipod touch. For example if you disable the app installation, the icon will not be visible and no apps can be installed using iTunes, as the program pane will be grayed out as well.
    More info about using the restriction settings here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_iOS4_UserGuide.pdf , page 140:
    ...Restrictions
    You can set restrictions for the use of some applications and for iPod content on iPod touch. For example, parents can restrict explicit music from being seen on playlists, or turn off YouTube access entirely....
    Sharing music using one computer is described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203
    You can set up each device differently on one computer and iTunes will remember the settings.
    Apps only work with the account you used buying them and can't be shared.

  • IPod Touch will not show up in iTunes...Please Help

    Here is what I know/can remember. My iPod has not worked in 3 months! Not sure at what point it stopped but it worked fine for a year. Now when I plug it in it charges just fine just will not show up in iTunes. Sometimes it shows up as an unknown device on my computer and in the hardware device section shows up as unknown device. Thats all I got. I have tried all kinds of troubleshooting. I have took each little peice off and then reinstalled numerous times. I have even restored my computer back to square one. Still not working! I want to cry. I just want to listen to my podcasts again. They are downloading into Itunes just can't get the Ipod Touch to show up in iTunes...willing to try anything! Please help if you can! I have a 16GB and use XP with SP3. I assume all my hardware is good to go since it worked before and it charges through the USB port!

    Welcome to the discussions,
    here are some general troubleshooting tips to go through, maybe you missed one suggestion. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495 They range from using the assistant up to USB driver installation, Apple Mobile Device Service and checking for available BIOS updates.

  • Brand new iPod touch, won't regognize on my mac book pro please help!, brand new iPod touch, won't regognize on my mac book pro please help!

    I recently bought I new iPod Touch 32gb, and It won't regognize on my computer (Mac Book Pro) I had the same problem with my previous touch but I shrugged it off as old age. any suggestions on what to do?

    Well since it has not been charging on multiple computers i would take a look at replacing the usb cable. Something could not be connecting right or just needs to be replaced. If this has already been done it is starting to sound like a battery issue with the ipod.
    Hope this helps!!

  • IPod Touch 3rd Gen. wont backup, corrupt or not compatiable, please help!!

    I have an issue, running Windows XP and I don't have the location where the backup's are stored on my pc: Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\.  What I do have is the following: Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
    I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
    I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and I keep getting the same message.  I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
    In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
    What am I doing wrong, can anyone help?
    Thank you!

    Try here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting backup issues in iTunes
    Backup are here:
    Tunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
