The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?

  • I got a new macbook and my old laptop was stolen. How do I get the information from my iphone to sync with the new macbook without the old computer and without wiping my phone?

    I'm seriously distressed because I don't want to have to delete my music and I don't want to have to pay a lot of additional money to sync with an outside program. Please help.

    You can restore from your backup. You do have backups, right?

  • HT1752 I need to transfer files from an 'original' iMac to a brand new one. The old Mac has no keyboard or mouse. Could it support a current wireless keyboard and mouse?

    Assuming that "original" means a G3/CRT iMac, not wireless. The G3 iMacs didn't have Bluetooth. The good news, though, is that any standard USB keyboard and mouse will work with them, even the ones designed for Windows that you can pick up for ten bucks or so.

  • How can I delete all songs from iCloud library?

    Hi,
    I have a strange issue and couldn't really find any information about this on Google, so I thought I would try here. I'm kind of surprised this hasn't come up for other users yet (or maybe it has and I'm just missing it.)
    I matched my iTunes library yesterday. About 60% of the songs were matched, 15% were uploaded and 25% were errored. I really like iTunes Match but I decided that I want to micromanage the library to get the best match results. To do this, I wanted to do the following:
    1. Remove all songs from my iCloud library
    2. Create a new iTunes library for use with iTunes
    3. Add to the library, artist by artist to match/correct.
    I began to do this in my new library and it was working fine. However I then decided to completely clear the old library, so I went into my original library, deleted all songs and definitely selected the option to delete from iCloud. I am 100% positive I did this. However, none of the songs deleted. They are not available in my original library (I have checked the option to display songs not on this computer) and they don't show up in my other library, either. I have no option to download the songs from iTunes on any computer, though I retain access from my iPhone.
    So, I need to delete these songs from iCloud. It does me no good to have them there when they're so disorganized and especially when I can't access them from most of my iTunes enabled devices. I was thinking of calling Apple to see if they could clear my iCloud library but a. I'm not sure they will and b. I don't want to pay $29 to discuss this with them, as I feel it is an issue with iTunes Match/iCloud and should be complimentary.
    I thought that maybe the songs would delete over time, since I know the iCloud servers are heavily taxed at the moment. However, it has been about 15 hours and there is absolutely no change. The iMatch section of iTunes shows that there are songs available, but none of them are; and since my plan is to reupload to iCloud anyway, that's fine--I just need to find out how to actually make the delete go through.
    Thanks!

    I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
    1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
    2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
    I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

  • I cant seem to get my contacts from ipad onto icloud

    I have tried turning device on and off,checked id is the same on all devices,icloud is turned on, on all devices, restarted all devices...please help!!
    The calendar wont sync either though notes does!

    Kindly  make sure on your iPad that Contacts and Calendars are not being synced with another mail account/account.  Turning on Calendars and Contacts syncing w/ iCloud will only sync Contacts and Calendars locally saved or entered on the iOS device.

  • Deleting songs from itunes Library and syncing

    I have loaded up my nano with most of my personal cd's and some purchased songs. I'd like to delete most of the songs off of the itunes library (sorta seems like double kill since they are on my nano and computer)...I really only need them in one spot and I could use the space on my computer. My question is when I do another CD or a purchased song and re-synch my ipod nano, will I lose everything that I have put on my nano and just get the new songs? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    And I will second that. Storing music on your iPod and nowhere else is an extremely risky option because when (and not if) there comes a time to restore your iPod, which is a very common fix for iPod problems, then all the music would be erased. If you no longer have the music in iTunes (or any other back up), then all that music would be lost.
    At the very least back up your music to either cd or dvd before deleting it, particularly any purchased music/videos, as this would have to be bought again if it were lost. See this about backing up media.

  • I only have 16bit windows vista on my laptop. Can I use my iPad to download songs from iTunes Store and sync to my new iPod Nano?

    I have a 16bit vista laptop which is unreliable and I do not wish to use it to transfer songs to my new iPod Nano. Can I sync downloads from my Apple iPad instead?

    You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
    Whichever method you use, you probably won't get a response until the 26th. If you absolutely must make a purchase before then, create a new Apple ID; you won't be able to transfer previous purchases or iTunes Store credit to it.

  • Home sharing and trying to copy song from another library not working.

    Trying to copy or drag a song from one library to another in the new Itunes 11.0 is not intuitive.   The Help comments suggest there is a show button "at bottom of itunes" that will display "songs not in my library"  but I don't see that.   Anyone else have a clue?

    If you want the old way of copying and dragging, you can enable the sidebar by going to View > Show Sidebar from the menu.
    Without the sidebar, you can still copy by mounting your Home Share (although, it's not dragging) and select the item you want to copy and click Import at the bottom bar on the right.
    Does this help?
